"Cannot stress this enough": Marvel Rivals Grandmaster on tips for ranking up

Marvel Rivals is a competitive game where team compositions can make or break the matches. Players must choose heroes from the Vanguard, Strategist, and Duelist classes, and a popular composition involves having two of each. However, according to Grand Master 1 player u/Few_Event_1719 on Reddit, this may not be the best way to build a team:

"STOP THINKING THAT 2-2-2 (2 tanks, 2 dps, 2 supports) IS THE ONLY VIABLE TEAM COMP. I cannot stress this enough."

The player further explained how playing the characters you are comfortable with can be game-changing. This simple tip can easily help you climb through the ranks in the game.

Marvel Rivals has rank tiers like many competitive titles, with Grandmaster being one of the highest ranks in the game. Naturally, reaching this stage takes a lot of effort and skill on the player's behalf. Therefore, the Redditor u/Few_Event_1719 had some advice for players.

In their post, the Redditor asked players to avoid using extreme compositions, like the one with five Duelists and one Strategist. However, according to them, straying away from the conventional 2-2-2 team composition could also prove useful if everyone plays the characters they are comfortable with:

"Obviously, you shouldn’t have anything extreme like 5 dps and 1 support, but having 3 dps or 3 strategists is totally fine and winnable. Let people or yourself play what you are most comfortable with first. Don’t try to play characters you don’t know how to play just to have two in each role."

Marvel Rivals competitive lobbies often have players attempting to balance the composition by playing specific classes. This may be the case even when a player does not feel comfortable playing a specific class. The biggest tip that u/Few_Event_1719 gave in their post was to not force others or oneself to play certain heroes. According to them, prioritizing the characters you're comfortable with may be the key to ranking up faster in Marvel Rivals.

In their finishing notes, the Redditor noted a rule of thumb where having one Vanguard and one Strategist in the team is usually enough to win games.
