Mantis in Marvel Rivals Appears to Have a Glitch

Alright, here we go. Let’s dive into the chaos that is gaming bugs, specifically in Marvel Rivals. So, there’s this totally weird and kinda annoying bug lurking around Mantis players. It’s apparently messing with headshot detection—like seriously, how in the world are you supposed to score those sweet shots if the game decides to betray you?

I stumbled onto this bug during a random scroll on Reddit—thanks to a user who calls themselves HighlyIndecisive (aren’t we all, buddy?). They pointed out this strange thing where Mantis, who’s, I’d say, underrated in the game, seems to have an extra-large hitbox for enemy heads. Sounds like a win, right? Well, except for the bit where it’s inconsistent—sometimes you nail the headshot, other times it’s like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands. Frustrating doesn’t even cover it.

The whole community’s pretty peeved. They’ve been buzzing on Discord, pleading with NetEase to sort this out. I mean, imagine having your perfect aim go to waste just because the game’s hitbox is on a whimsically mischievous mode? And yeah, people have been griping about this issue not just on Reddit. I swear, saw a thread with over 2.3K upvotes in a blink.

I’m no game developer, but aiming is crucial in a game like Marvel Rivals, right? It’s basically a make-or-break deal in battles. You miss a headshot, and you might as well kiss victory goodbye. So, the pressure’s on NetEase to patch things up before Mantis falls out of favor. Wouldn’t want her to disappear from the character lineup due to some dumb bug.

Updates happen often in this game though, I heard there was a patch just the other day fixing up folks like Star-Lord. Let’s hope Mantis gets her day soon. Seriously, I can’t be the only one tired of these game quirks turning epic battles into comical failures—unless, of course, you’re into tragic comedy. Here’s hoping for a fix that sticks, fingers crossed!
