How to rank up quickly in Marvel Rivals Ranked
1) Master multiple heroes
While specializing in a single hero is good, it is always better to diversify your hero preferences in all classes so that you can adapt to various team compositions and counter the enemy picks. Flexibility in hero selection is a significant asset in Marvel Rivals Ranked mode.

2) Prioritize team communication
Not just Marvel Rivals, but all competitive shooters require effective communication. Use the in-game voice chat or text to coordinate with your allies, plan the hero picks, and decide when to engage or fall back. Calling out enemy positions and organizing team pushes can turn the tide in the most critical moments.
If direct communication is not possible for you, the game still provides a ping system to mark objectives or alert teammates about different things. A team that communicates well is much more likely to win a match than those who stay quiet.
3) Focus on objectives
It is important to understand and prioritize objectives. We often see players who only seek eliminations and are nowhere to be found when they are required to be near the objective. There's no point in mindlessly chasing opponents across the map while leaving the main objective aside. Always stay aware of the match's progress.
