So did this mean Season 2 was guaranteed for Marvel Rivals? The announcement said Iron Fist would enter the battlefield with his new Binary Fist outfit, and all the players are just clamoring for it. The announcement carries with it some very strange mystical vibes, quoting Neijing: “Those who are pure, hold true Chi within; evil cannot touch them.” Deep stuff, right? Best not to have a meditation session in the middle of a match.
So first things first: The Binary Fist outfit will be making its Marvel Rivals debut on June 19th at 7 p.m. PDT. The design? Red energy glowing here and there, flowing robes, and an aura that screams “untouchable.” The words in the tweet were, “Untouchable. Unbeatable. Undefeated,” which honestly sounds like something that would be screaming at you from the trailer of a martial arts movie. But, hey! Whatever sells.
Just like from Robert Frost’s quotes, reactions, as usual, are mixed. Mixed reactions have occurred, some alternatively being hyped from this. @legendofconnorr passionately exclaimed, “MY BOY hell yeah.” But some other players were let down. @KingJamesArt pointed out: “Glowing red costume but his abilities still greenš¤¦āāļø EZ color swap.” That’s a fair point. The powers should not be green while there’s red glow; it is a blatant waste of showing off some cool VFX.
And then there were those wanting less clothing. @Strwberrythotty simply said, “just give him a naked skin already this is boring.” @henryOW_ then chimed, “we want naked ironfist instead.” Look, no judgments here, but you might want to save those requests for a very different kind of game.
Other players worry about gameplay-balancing issues. @testacc123423_ dropped the spicy take: “Every character that gets nerfed is always doomed to get a skin right after.” Ow. However, @Smoovkillalot replied: “Gotta soften the blow of the nerf,” so maybe that’s how Marvel Rivals apologizes for tweaking Iron Fist’s stats.
Some just want more skins. @BillyBu01762971 told the devs, “Come on guys. You can do better. Add new VFX, alternate colors, etc.” In other words, @INHGamer said the green effects looked “weird” on the red costume. Fair pointāconsistency goes a long way when you’re trying to look cool while punching faces.
I have to tell you, not everyone is complaining. God bless the skins. @JBLQuantum called it a “banger,” while @PlaysMarvel hollered, “Giving all 1s and no 0s š¤š¤š¤.” So, there’s a silver lining! And @SarahnatorX would be having nightmares right now about getting jump by Iron Fist and Spider-Man. So, in a way, the costume has already achieved its task.
Marvel Rivals Season 2 will undoubtedly be another wild ride. New skins, new drama, andālet’s face itāprobably more nerfs and buffs as players scream into their mics, but that is what makes it fun, right? For anyone watching for fash or for fisticuffs, Iron Fist’s Binary Fist outfit will be grabbing eyeballs on June 19. Now, excuse me while we go practice our chi flow, or at least survive another ambush by Spider-Man!
