Despite the incredible designs from the Marvel Rivals team, sometimes, there’s something so fun about throwing on a fresh new outfit thanks to mods. The modding community of Marvel Rivals might be small, to begin with, and Marvel Rivals themselves might not exactly like the idea of mods entirely, but that doesn’t mean that some of the best Marvel Rivals skin mods aren’t worth looking into.

These Duelists stand out from the rest as the best heroes in Marvel Rivals to ensure that players are always dominating the competition.

8 Kratos Mod for Thor
Replace the Asgardian Thor with the Greek God of War, Kratos
- Mod Link
- Creator: HasB
Thor's older and more grizzled look in Marvel Rivals makes him the perfect candidate to be replaced by an older and more grizzled Kratos. The God of War series has seen an evolution in its protagonist of Kratos, and now this Dad of Boy takes his trusty Leviathan Axe out of Ragnarok and into the Marvel Rivals scene, where he can slay a pantheon of Marvel heroes instead of gods.
The mod is a lot of fun considering it replaces Thor with Kratos and even replaces Mjolnir with the Leviathan Axe. Those who want a fresh look and an equally violent and powerful god can find that right here thanks to HasB.
7 Classic Spider-Man
Spidey's Blue & Red Spandex Makes a Return
- Mod Link
- Creator: Cykal
When creatives manage to get their hands on Spider-Man, they usually put their own spin on the web-head's red and blue outfit. While there's nothing bad with the official Marvel Rivals costume or the MCU skins, it's more often than not that it's impossible to beat a classic, especially one as vibrant and amazing as this Spider-Man from Cykal.
Cykal's mod replaces the Spider-Man outfit with the good ol' classic, as this Spider-Man outfit proves that if something isn't broken, then why bother fixing it? The Classic Spider-Man mod looks great and shows the wealth of potential in future skins for the web-head.
6 Arc’s Carnage (Venom Skin Replacer)
Replace Venom With His Violent and Psychotic Son, Carnage
- Mod Link
- Creator: ArchonShadow
Hopefully, one-day Carnage actually comes to Marvel Rivals, but until that day, players should try out ArchonShadow's Carnage mod, which replaces Venom with a hulking version of the sinister red Symbiote. Carnage is a true menace in the Marvel Universe, and killing heroes and villains alike makes him right at home with this hero shooter.
The mod itself looks great with the clashing reds and smokey blacks of Carnage, and it uses the Venom model well to make the case that this could easily work for an official skin. However, with Carnage being a tad more slender in the comics, perhaps he can join the ranks later down the line.
5 Deadpool as Winter Soldier
Turn the Winter Soldier into the Merc with a Mouth
- Mod Link
- Creator: Nyaku
As players patiently wait for Deadpool to come to Marvel Rivals, they are going to have to rely on mods to scratch that itch that the Merc with a Mouth can fix. This mod from Nyaku replaces Winter Soldier with Deadpool, allowing the red-outfit merc to come into the game to be both armed and dangerous, but without the fourth wall breaks.

4 Doom Slayer as The Punisher
Make The Punisher Take a Break in Exchange for the Slayer of Hell Himself from Doom
- Mod Link
- Creator: alwayssluckkyy
Get ready to blast some Mick Gordon, as the Punisher is taking a sweet break from vengeance to let the Doom Slayer have some fun. The character model comes from Doom Eternal, as noted by this demon slayer's hulking biceps as he rages through Marvel heroes with a shotgun and assault rifle.
Doom Slayer is the perfect replacement for the Punisher, as they both share a love of violence, vengeance, and of course, an arsenal of guns. While this Doom Slayer might not be able to commit to gory finishing moves, he can enjoy the heights of fighting heroes from another world.

2 (JoJo’s) Star Platinum Over Iron Fist
Turn Iron Fist into Jotaro Kujo's Stand, Star Platinum
- Mod Link
- Creator: Lynks, Rayz
Iron Fist is a true nuisance in Marvel Rivals due to his high damage output and burst of punches. Yet, there's something about his rapid fury of repeating jabs that makes one just want to scream ORAORAORAORAORAORA. This is why modders Lynks and Rayz created this talented beauty to bring Star Platinum from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure into the game as a replacement for Iron Fist.

1 Vegeta As Iron Man
Replace Iron Man With the Saiyan Prince Vegeta
- Mod Link
- Creator: Leonaura
Replace Iron Man's chromed-out armor with a bit more muscle and Saiyan pride, as this mod from Leonaura replaces the character entirely with Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z. Vegeta is one of the most iconic anime characters of all time, so to see him here battling against Marvel characters and proving just how strong this Saiyan is, is quite the sight to behold.
Vegeta even comes with two cosmetic choices that players can use, with his classic blue featuring as the default Iron Man replacer, whereas his black attire features as a replacement for the Model 42 skin. The mod looks great and is the first of a fan's dreams to see Marvel x Dragon Ball.
