One Marvel Rivals player discovers a weird visual glitch with Cloak and Dagger that occurred after activating their ultimate ability, where the character model was replaced by 2 Daggers instead. After launching in December, Marvel Rivals has continued to maintain its impressive start, keeping players engaged and logging in each day.
Despite numerous live-service and hero shooter titles recently struggling or outright failing, such as Firewalk Studios' ill-fated Concord, Marvel Rivals has seemingly avoided that mess and has found strong support. Part of that can likely be attributed to the Marvel IP and a huge roster of well-known characters to pick from, though players also seem to really enjoy the moment-to-moment gameplay as well. While fans have plenty to say about balancing and which characters need buffs, one player has seemingly discovered a very strange visual glitch during a match.
Despite the game's immense popularity, Marvel Rivals hasn't been free of issues. In fact, one Reddit user named Riccdasloth posted a short video of a recent match where the duo support hero Cloak and Dagger suffered an odd glitch. After switching to Cloak and casting Dark Teleportation, the player then activates Eternal Bond, which is three dashes that heal allies and damage enemies. In this case, though, Cloak seems to glitch out and the character model appears to be two Daggers dashing together, one looking like a ragdoll taking the place of Cloak.
Marvel Rivals Glitch Gives Player 2 Daggers
Reaction to this odd-looking glitch has been pretty positive, with most fans making jokes about the appearance of two Daggers. There were more than a few comments wondering what the player was doing with Cloak and Dagger's ultimate ability, to which Riccdasloth replied that they panicked during that moment, and seeing the two Daggers glitch compounded things even more, resulting in a less than ideal use of Eternal Bond.
A game like Marvel Rivals is also ripe for fan creativity as well, as players discover tips, tricks, and other surprising details while playing. Fans have been sharing all sorts of details online, including certain settings to change for a better experience, voice lines to listen for when a strategist hero needs help, and other gameplay-related tips. One Winter Soldier player discovered a trick for charging his ultimate quickly, taking advantage of Loki clones during a particular match.
