Yesterday, the developers of Marvel Rivals revealed plans for a rank reset, triggering immediate backlash from players who voiced their concerns about the decision.

“Ranks will be reset when the second half of Season 1 starts on February 21, 2025,” the announcement stated, indicating that players could face drops of up to four divisions.

Translation: “Ranks will be reset when the second half of Season 1 starts on February 21, 2025.”

Notably, the mid-season reset was met with fierce resistance as players expressed that restarting their ranks was unreasonable so soon after the season began. Many players found the idea exhausting, particularly after not long returning to their original ranks.

The communication from developers reflected the confusion and angst among players, leading to adjustments in the strategy. Following extensive feedback, the developers quickly reassured the community:

“When the second half of the season begins, there will be no rank reset. Players will retain their ranks and scores from the end of the first half.”

Translation: “When the second half of the season begins, there will be no rank reset.”

Instead, players can retain their existing ranks by completing ten matches in competitive mode to earn rewards. The feedback loop is paramount for ensuring player satisfaction, and it appears the developers are listening to their community to find a viable solution.
