I’ve been curious about the hype for this game. From what I know it seems like a card game like poker. The popularity of it must mean it’s quite engaging though.
Im very curious as well. Was looking into it and came to the same conclusion; it’s just a poker with weird rules and some nicer graphics. Its advertised as a deck building game. Now I don’t know what a deck builder game is, but imagine something like pokemon or magic the gathering? But what’s the fun in combining this with poker? And isn’t that more fun with real, physical cards and friends?
It has lots of modifiers and rules and your hand is a dynamic deck of cards (not just 52 default cards) and so you get the dynamic gameplay and synergizing strategies of a game like Slay the Spire.
It’s poker solitaire - you have 24 blinds to beat (getting 4 played hands attempts [two pair, four of a kind, etc), and 2 discards of up to 5 cards, per blind). The hand played plus the cards in the hand result in a multiplication formula to give you your point value. It’s pretty straight forward.
Every 3rd blind is a boss, which has a special debuff of some kind (like all diamond cards adre debuffed[provide no points and do not trigger special abilities), or 1 in 7 chance for a card in your hand to be dealt face down)
You beat the point target of each blind, and after every blind you go to the store to buy additional cards or things that modify your deck, like a tarot card that allows you to turn 3 cards into spades (making it easier to play flushes), or increase a two select cards by 1 rank (so, turning 2x 6s into 7s meaning you now have 6x 7s in your deck and 2x 6s, making it easier to hit 4 of a kind on 7s).
Then there jokers on top of it, which have even more crazy effects than modify your hand point values
The first 3 blinds are 300, 450, and 600 points
The 24th blind is 100,000 points.
So you need to develop your deck and jokers at the shop after each blind to continue to make your hands played more and more valuable, because that 100k blind isn’t that far away.
At its core it’s just a fun arithmetic game (a default pair hand is 20 points and a 2x multiplier. Then you get a joker that says +4 to multiplier of played hand contains a pair. So now when you play a pair you get 20 pts at a 6x multiplier).
It’s as simple or as complicated as you want it to be.
A lot of the fun comes from your own personal challenges. Like, just starting a run and getting a spectral card that turns your hand on to all 8s so you just go “fuck it, I’m gonna try to turn my hand into all 8s and do a 5 of a kind run”.
Oh yeah, and secret hands too: 5 of a kind, Flush House (full house with all cards of the same suit), and Flush Five (five of a kind, all same suit)
You might like it, you might not. I personally can’t see why people say it’s so addicting, but it does keep me busy on my train ride to work.
I got it on my phone, and it has taken up more of my life than I care to admit. It’s similar to slay the spire. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys strategy games.
I do not care at all about any Marvel stuff and don’t know many chars but my friend who does wanted to play. I gotta say… it’s a BLAST. I like that I can be a furry.
It actually is pretty fun. I can see this quickly going sour, but currently it is a much better game than Overwatch. No idea what the future holds, but hopefully NetEase can pull through. I loved Super Mecha Champions (2021-2025 RIP, you were gone too soon- Alborada my beloved), so hopefully they keep things going and don’t end this one like some of their other ones (DBD Mobile, for example).
It does a good job of onboarding people. The general tutorial is relatively short and sweet, and character specific tutorials are even shorter. It also gives each character a rank (in stars) for how complex that character is to use effectively.
The game itself is pretty chaotic, so it’s easy to convince yourself that your deaths are incidental, and your victories are a result of you playing well. And as long as you’re having fun you’ll be okay with that. But if at any point you start feeling like someone has your foil, just change characters mid-match and try a new tactic. There’s so many characters you can experiment until you find theirs.
I don’t personally like that kinda ass, more into the “fits in one hand” kinda booty (like my wife’s), but I gotta admire. That’s not an everyday ass. She worked hard to shape it like that, got what she wanted and is proud of it. Go girl!
Probably an effect of the angle. Standing erect, the wrist will usually be aligned with the groin. Women tend to have shorter torsos and longer legs compared to men of the same height, so a wrist that goes a bit below the groin line will still look ok. Since the Marvel Rivals character designs are all very stylized, you can bet she has really nice legs
The pic that gives the biggest impression tho is the first on the left, with the arm stretched back a bit, but again, mostly an angle thing.
