This hero has a total of four skins in NetEase Games's title including the base variant. The base skin is available for all players as the character remains unlocked by default.
Rocket Raccoon in Marvel Rivals can deal quite a bit of focused damage while providing heals with the same weapon. The primary fire can eliminate most small health pool heroes with ease but fails to deliver lethal blows to Vanguards.

In terms of aesthetic appeal, the skin certainly stands out from the rest making it a worthy S-tier skin for the time being. The in-game description of this skin is as follows:
“Never thought I’d be this wiped out by a mountain on Earth. What’s the name of this place again? Something like ‘hey-more-lay-us’?”
A-tier
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3

The GOTG Vol. 3 skin brings back the iconic uniform worn by Rocket Raccoon in the 2023 film. It can make fans of the films relate to the character a little bit more and it adds an air of familiarity for Marvel fans. The skin alone can be purchased for 1600 units which is an affordable price given the overall appeal of this skin. This item’s in-game description is:
"Someday I'm gonna make great machines that fly. And me and my friends are gonna go flying together, into the forever and beautiful sky."

Bounty Hunter

The Bounty Hunter skin for Rocket Raccoon is available through the Season 1 Battle Pass. You can get this skin by purchasing the Luxury version of the Battle Pass and completing Page 2 of the same. It is one of the more unique skins in Marvel Rivals and showcases the Strategist hero in a steampunk makeover with a matching color theme and weapon to create a whole set.
The in-game description of this skin reads:
"Hey Groot, you think cranking up our bounty to the max, turning ourselves in for the reward, and then breaking out would make an easier payday than chasing fugitives all day?"
Page 2 also contains set items for this skin:
- Wanted Raccoon MVP Animation Screen
- Bounty Hunter nameplate
Fans should get the Luxury Pass and grind the game a bit to get this skin since it may be removed from the game once the Season 2 update launches. This means that it would be an extremely rare skin for the Strategist hero.
B-tier
Default

The default Rocket Raccoon skin by itself is rather attractive. The developers at NetEase Games have done their best to bring the character to life. His armor adds to the strong weapon-heavy aesthetic of the character. Furthermore, the skin is available for free and portrays the character quite charmingly and accurately. Certainly, it's one of the best skins in Marvel Rivals.

Rocky

Finally, the Rocky Rocket Raccoon skin is perhaps the least appealing of all currently. It is merely a recolor of the default skin. It gives Rocket a bright shade of green. It costs only 600 Units in Marvel Rivals. It’s somewhat impressive but does not manage to stand out as it’s not much different from the default version.

"Lord Dyvyne's kidnapped Lylla, my soulmate...an' that REALLY makes my FUR FLY!"

Fans can also choose to get skins for Rocket to showcase in-game prowess with a bit of flair.
