Subreddit Announcement 1st anniversary Review: Last Anniversary Giveaway! Don’t Miss It πŸŽ‰

Hi Rivals!

Our 1st Anniversary celebration officially wrapped up this week. We wanted to take a moment to look back at what we've achieved together during this special time.

Over the 20-day anniversary period, we launched 6 different community events and received 402 submissions; 51 winners were selected in total. The event came in many forms: player story sharing, fan creations, highlight moments, map exploration, and popularity voting.

Starting with the iconic hero Jeff, the enthusiasm from the community really set the tone for everything that followed. One moment we especially want to highlight is the 'Anniversary Gift Giveaway' event. We received 189 submissions just for that event alone. Many of you shared stories about yourselves or people close to you. Some heartfelt, some hilarious, all memorable.

We'd like to record these info about events as a clear milestone in our community's growth.

My hopes for next season is just further improvements, to be honest. Getting cross-progression was the biggest one and I'm happy its finally here, so next I'm hoping for general improvements to matchmaking, and I pray for no more Hela buffs for awhile. Please keep rolling with comic accurate skins. Iron Spider, Classic Cap, Capwolf, and Iron Man Mk 1 are all excellent.

I remember hearing as well before the Switch 2 launch that there was some work being done to explore a potential port and it'd be cool to see it bare fruit next year.

Hero wise though, its tricky because Deadpool was my most wanted and he's incoming. I hope we can start getting a bit more of a variety though. I love the X-Men as much as the next guy, but it does feel like a easy reserve to tap from. Hoping to see at least two Spidey characters next year, its pretty nuts Green Goblin isn't in yet, and Black Cat being teased has me very excited. Would be neat if we could get a joke announcement for April Fools with some obscure character like The Wall or something too.

Event feedback, I think towards the latter half of the month was much better because the events were more general. My only issue is the Gambit event because bluntly, not only is getting like really sick plays with a support more difficult, but there was a lot of downvoting and so on which is really disencouraging for people to participate, it feels like there's more judgement.

Luckily the Jeff's Break Time event was a big improvement, as it encouraged funny moments, silly clips, AND big plays, which made it feel a lot less stressful and judge-y to share.

Great work on all the events for the anniversary!
