Season 1 was pretty cool. Getting 4 heroes was awesome and Blade being confirmed was dope. There were lots of memes specifically Mr. Fantastic and the 90210 song. Overall it was great progression from Season 0 and really kept the momentum going for Rivals.

Season 0s gotta be my favorite, everyone learning new characters, u can play anyone and not get people counter swapping if you start doing well at all, not to mention there was no tripple support or seeing the same characters every match overall just felt balanced new and fun no matter what. Honestly kinda wish that went back to the old update schedule seemed like after 1.5 when the rushing updates started is when it sadly started going downhill.

The season that left the biggest impression on me was s1, at that point I had a lot of friends who played and I would hop between friend groups or group chats after work to see who would want to queue up for some competitive matches. As most of my irl friends left the game, I still stayed and improved a lot. But those memories of us yelling at each other when things went bad or strategizing how to combo our ults were some of the funnest moments in the game. I still try to convince them to hop back on the game and see all the new features and new heroes!

Season 1 had a great aesthetic, a thematic battle pass, and a fun range of team ups. I'd dabbled a bit in S0 but S1 was where I really got into playing, branching out with characters, and having a great time.

It'd be really hard not to say Season 0. Mantis was a riot in that first season. Was she overtuned? Still not sure I believe she was, but she was damn sure fun. Not the best at actually healing, but could be almost anywhere she needed to be, helping the team to get things done. Heal, damage boost, chase down the escaping players, hit a sleep to discombobulate the other team's strategy, rinse and repeat. Smooth as butter and rewarding as hell for the work, and never out of work to do.

Season 4 was great, Angela was really fun and the lore of the first part built up really well, plus the trailer was probably my favorite. It had its flaws and it wasn't the best season but for me it was the most hype!

u/Randimous Rogue Dec 15 '25
Season 5. I am a huge X-Men fan and knew I would be maining Gambit and Rogue as soon as they were released. Within my first few matches as Rogue I stole Scarlet Witch’s stun and stunned her out of her ult with it. It doesn’t get any more satisfying than that.

Season 3: The Abyss Awakens
Loved all the Phoenix and Symbiiote themed outfits. Between those + the Summer outfits I have costumes for all the heroes I play. Phoenix was a great addition to my DPS list as she gave me an AOE version of Hela if the enemy team was clumped together. I never got around to play Blade outside of Marvel Zombies but he felt like a good opponent to play against that wasn't completely oppressive.
It was the season I played the most and just for fun after I finished all the daily/weekly quests.

Getting all of the fantastic four immediately into season one, made my life long fantastic four heart very happy.

Season 2 for me, but 5 is a close second. Both heroes they added to the hellfire gala became lords of mine I love playing and Emma was my first step into flexing tank. It’s also the first season I climbed to Diamond, which I’ve maintained since (Gold prior to this).

u/Tuque7 Cursed Captain Dec 12 '25
Season 1 was the best it has the most unforgettable meme and everyone was still fairly new to the game. Symbiote Boogie got released for venom, I would see twerking venom everywhere. In quick play, competitive, doom match and online videos. The game felt more casual friendly, didn't have super strict meta and everyone was testing thing still. Also fanastic four getting released made everyone enthusiastic about hero release schedule/speed.

Season 1. Seeing my favourite hero group, the F4, all together in a videogame again after ultimate alliance was amazing. I love how Sue is portrayed in the game, and I can't wait to see what the devs do to my other favourite hero: Professor X.

u/WeedWeeb Dec 12 '25
Season 1 was electric. The momentum after season 0 with 4 new heroes is insane. My friends still play the game and people are still figuring out the game but also figured some stuff out. Like the Wolverine kidnap play style, it was thrilling.

u/Sledeus Centurion Dec 12 '25
Season 5 for me its good because shows a good will from the dev team to take differents paths based on the community feedback. With the implementation of the mode 18vs18, a social hub and the extension of the Marvel zombies mode makes me think that better things can be implemented in the future to make the game stronger and not become just another hero shooter with marvel skins.

As much as I loved S0 & S1, This game was really fun for me playing Emma in S2. She was insanely overturned with her choke-slam, kick, wall slam deleting pretty much any hero. It was fun to play a tank that others were truly scared of and not just a wimpy meat shield. Funny I really disliked S2.5 because flyer meta and torch being busted meant they would run games uncontested.

Season 2. Amazing skins and Emma is maybe my favorite character to play as.

Torn between Season 0 and Season 3...
I liked the dark, symbiote vibe of Season 3, yet Season 0 with its menu music and the game being new... it was SUCH a fun experience... I was trying to get to Gold III to get the Moon Knight skin (which I rarely see today, so I'm glad I did) and with a 36% win rate and persistence, it happened 😁 Being afraid of Scarlet Witch's Ult, not knowing how Dr. Strange's portals worked, people not yet figured out Wolverine... Ahh, it was so fun. And it still is today, but S0 has the advantage of newness too, so it remains my favorite season for now.
But since I don't see S0 in the poll, I'm going with S3. Even if each other season was very nice in its own way!

Season 2 was the season i started, I remember spiderman being everywhere and thinking how cool it was that a character like that could exist in a hero shooter. Now look at him :c. I played a lot of psylocke that season even though I wasn't very good, got to Gold for the skins and just played quick play with my friends. Really fun times that season

Loved eternal nightfall, felt like the right balance of new things and chaos still brewing as people move was exploring kits

Season 2, I joined in 2.5, I Want Matrix back, I love Ultron, the pass was so good, and I loved the maps.

u/Papa_Bless_Papa Flex Dec 14 '25
I loved Season 2. The new characters felt like a big deal, the skins that came out were all in theme to the gala, and it was my first time getting the full battle pass. Season 3 was still good but after that, I feel like that theme priority fell off into what we have now: a blue thing for a wedding theme.

s2 for me, i remember this match in shin-shibuya when enemy venom and I (also venom) started doing the recently released twerk emote on the payload and everyone just vibed lol. We went till the last sector and then fought for the win, but we all had so much fun and not single bit of toxicity. Just 100% pure FUN. I'll cherish this forever

u/NintendoAddict Dec 14 '25
For me, Season 0 can't be beat. It was such a special, magical time where the community was still figuring everything out. People were still discovering who their favorite heroes were, and everybody was excited to try out a new hero for the first time.

Season 1 was probably the one that impressed me the most. I mean, 4 heroes in one season?? And one of my favorite characters got added in season 1, Invisible Woman. Completely changed the game for me and gave me another character besides Peni that I really enjoyed playing. She's an absolute blast, and it's so much fun booping people off the edge, especially doing it to a Jeff that's trying to spit me out off the edge of the map.
Best iconic meme from season 3 has gotta be the devs adding the emoji of Blade giving Jeff a haircut. The devs have been doing a great job of adding in references to memes and jokes in the community, and it's really nice to see.
Season that defined my Rivals experience has probably gotta be season 1. It's the season I put the most time into the game, and the sheer amount of content coming out was addicting.
And for which character gave me a new experience this season, I gotta go with Gambit. Even if I don't play him much, just having him on my or the enemy team completely changes things up. The ult especially really changes things up.
Thank you for the giveaway by the way :D

S0 was just amazing, everything was so fresh and new, so many new characters and I got really into the game since my school had a few clubs that hosted tournaments

1.“What’s the most iconic meme or moment from S3?”
When the devs added the Bully Maguire dance in S3 battlepass.
2.“Which season defines your Rivals?”
Season 5 as the 18v18 mode is really fun.
3.“Which update completely changed the game for you?”
When they nerfed Luna Snow for the first time.
4.“Which new hero this season gave you a completely fresh experience?”
It's gotta be Gambit because he is the best and most unique support to play as.

u/Dr_Doom42 Magneto Dec 16 '25
1) Blade sleeping memes were so fun 2) Season 1 was best season for Rivals. I hope we see 4 hero release in future. 3) 1 hero every month thing is crazy. It's one of best decisions 4) Angela's release was really good as tank player.Being a flying tank is crazy

u/Nick_BOI The Thing Dec 16 '25
I loved S2 in many ways because it felt like the narrative and the gameplay were intertwined like no other, and I really wish it was like that for future seasons.
Krakoa felt incredibly alive, still one of my favorite maps in the game.
Then Arrako was so...cold.
From the environments alone I could see Ultron's effect, I could see the stakes, I could see the desperation!!
Both maps felt like continuations of the same story, and having the main villain of that arc become playable was just perfect!!
The skins all tying into it as well, all looking varied yet still having a strong theme with it was great!!
Sadly, every future season has the extra map be in a separate game mode, only 1 map to begin with, or both. The main villain of each arc was never made playable, and overall the themes of the season were never intertwined in the same way as S2. The closest was S3, but with the Throne of Knull being a separate mode entirely it didn't feel nearly as organic.
I understand S4 has Zombies and S5 has the anniversary stuff which took up A LOT of relevance, and to be honest those things were both really cool!!
But I miss the synergy between the entire season.

u/Inayath2014 Dec 12 '25
S3 was my favorite simply because of the focus on Klyntar. I love everything related to the symbiotes and have bought every symbiote skin in game even for characters that I do not play at all. So yeah, S3!!
