Marvel Rivals Season 11: Doomsday goes live tonight, and it brings Nightcrawler with it. NetEase’s patch starts at 10pm NZDT on Friday 13 November, with about two hours of maintenance before you can jump in.
It’s the first new hero in more than two months, plus a big balance pass that takes a hammer to Devil Dinosaur, Emma Frost and a pile of crowd control. Here’s what matters.
Nightcrawler is a support hero built around teleporting, according to Polygon’s breakdown of the reveal trailer. His primary fire throws energy balls that heal teammates, and he can blink straight onto an ally to heal them, much like White Fox.
The fun bit is that he can also warp an ally in line of sight to his own position, which can save a dying mate or drop a Scarlet Witch mid-ultimate into the enemy team. His ultimate pulls enemies towards him with his teleports, and the trailer shows him using it to dump them off a ledge.
The balance notes are long, so here are the ones that will change your games, as listed by Insider Gaming from NetEase’s Season 11 notes.
Good. Devil Dinosaur has been a menace since Season 10, and sleeping for 3.5 seconds because Mantis looked at you was never fun. Cutting the crowd control across the board is the right call.
Nightcrawler looks like the most fun support in ages, and a strategist who can rescue mates is exactly the kind of hero that makes solo queue less miserable. It’s also nice to get a new hero again after Season 10 left us hanging.
The 10% CPU boost is the sleeper hit for anyone on an older PC. If you’re after more season drops, Wardogs Season 3 also landed this week, and Bungie’s Marathon free week is coming in December.
