Season 2 of Marvel Rivals brings significant balance updates and introduces the Flower of Krakoa battle pass. Key characters like Emma counter the previous dive meta's dominance, shifting team compositions towards classic 2/2/2 or new Triple Vanguard setups. Rocket Raccoon becomes a standout Strategist with improved healing and an Ultimate that enhances team damage while countering heavy burst damage. Alongside Rocket, characters like Scarlet Witch have received boosts through new team-ups, whereas others like Dr. Strange are rebalanced to maintain competitive integrity without overshadowing.
The development team made a few changes to help characters out and give them places where they would become strong, or remain strong, without being too dominant.
Rocket has always been great, but with vastly improved single-target healing and a two-for-one Ultimate... he is a borderline must-play character now.
While you can certainly still play dive-heavy comps, you'll need team coordination; it's not the dominant force the community anticipated.
Scarlet Witch is also stronger with her team-up with Dr. Strange, although he has fallen from grace a bit with his lowered damage and increased survivability.
