In Marvel Rivals, character selection is as crucial as skill. Understanding character win rates helps players build successful teams. This January 2025 data reveals the top and bottom performers.
Underperforming Marvel Rivals Characters:
Win rate data highlights the game's meta. Knowing which characters consistently underperform prevents players from hindering their team's success. This data can also be useful for convincing teammates to switch characters. Here are the Marvel Rivals characters with the lowest win rates as of January 2025:
| **Character** | **Pick Rate** | **Win Rate** |
| Black Widow | 1.21% | 41.07% |
| Jeff the Land Shark | 13.86% | 44.38% |
| Squirrel Girl | 2.93% | 44.78% |
| Moon Knight | 9.53% | 46.35% |
| The Punisher | 8.68% | 46.48% |
| Cloak & Dagger | 20.58% | 46.68% |
| Scarlet Witch | 6.25% | 46.97% |
| Venom | 14.65% | 47.56% |
| Winter Soldier | 6.49% | 47.97% |
| Wolverine | 1.95% | 48.04% |
Many on this list have low pick rates, impacting win percentages. However, Jeff the Land Shark, Cloak & Dagger, and Venom stand out. The first two, while healers, lack the unique abilities of Strategists like Mantis and Luna Snow. Jeff's Ultimate Attack nerf in Season 2 may further decrease his win rate. Venom, the sole tank on the list, excels at absorbing damage but often struggles to deliver the finishing blow. Fortunately, a Season 1 buff will boost his Ultimate Attack's base damage.

Choosing a main character? Knowing the highest win rates can help. Here are the Marvel Rivals characters with the best win rates and their pick rates:
| **Character** | **Pick Rate** | **Win Rate** |

| Adam Warlock | 7.45% | 53.59% |
| Rocket Raccoon | 9.51% | 53.20% |
| Peni Parker | 18% | 53.05% |
| Thor | 12.52% | 52.65% |
| Black Panther | 3.48% | 52.60% |
| Hulk | 6.74% | 51.79% |
This list features popular characters like Peni Parker and Mantis. However, Magik and Black Panther, despite lower pick rates, demonstrate significant potential. Their mastery can significantly impact the game.
While this data shouldn't restrict team compositions, it's a valuable indicator of difficult-to-counter characters. Even if you prefer a lower-win-rate character, familiarity with at least one top performer is advantageous.
These are the Marvel Rivals character win rates as of January 2025.
