"For those not steeped in X-Men knowledge, Rogue is a mutant with the ability to absorb people's memories, personality, and powers at the slightest touch. Typically, this exchange causes a great deal of pain for the affected person, and Rogue can even kill someone through skin-to-skin contact if she hangs on long enough. Marvel Rivals is implementing this into her kit, as she is able to absorb an ability from nearly every other character in the game."
"Anyone playing Rogue has to be adaptable, as she can only copy abilities from enemies on the field, rather than just pulling from the roster at her whim. She's not too dissimilar to Echo from Overwatch 2 , whose ultimate lets her copy an enemy or ally's form and kit, but Rogue still maintains her own cooldowns and abilities when she siphons an ability."
Rogue can absorb people's memories, personality, and powers at the slightest touch, often causing great pain and potentially killing through prolonged skin-to-skin contact. Marvel Rivals gives her the ability to absorb an ability from nearly every other character, enabling on-the-fly playstyle changes such as copying Doctor Strange's shield or Invisible Woman's crowd control. She can only copy abilities from enemies currently on the field, requiring adaptability. Rogue maintains her own cooldowns and abilities when siphoning. She functions as a frontline tank with straightforward melee attacks, a damage-minimizing block that converts energy into a stronger punch, and an Ultimate that siphons health and ult charge in an area.
