Marvel Rivals: Player Creates Doctor Octopus Vanguard Concept Amidst Lack of New Heroes

Despite promises of new Marvel Rivals heroes, players note a shortage of Vanguards compared to other roles. To address this, one player has introduced a detailed concept for Doctor Octopus as a Vanguard.

Doctor Octopus Vanguard Concept

The concept video shows Doctor Octopus utilizing his tentacles for enhanced mobility, similar to Venom and Spider-Man. It outlines potential abilities, including:

* Havoc Claw: Tentacle attacks on enemies
* Wrecking Grip: Debris manipulation and projectiles
* Cephalopod Dash: Increased movement speed
* Tentacle Aegis: Temporary shield using extra arms

Ultimate Ability: Wrath of the Master

Doctor Octopus grabs nearby enemies with his tentacles and repeatedly slams them to the ground. This ultimate has the potential to be highly lethal, comparable to Magneto's Meteor M.

Unlikely Addition to the Game

While the concept is well-received, the developers have stated they are not actively considering new heroes. They are currently prioritizing addressing game issues and balance.
