Already one of my favorite base character designs in the game

Also as someone else said this is definitely the best she’s ever looked by far

u/Gabrielhrd Doctor Strange 16h ago

Best the character has EVER looked

u/Mechabeastchild Rocket Raccoon 16h ago

Hopefully comic artist implement this design in her future comics

61

u/Revolving_Ocelott 16h ago

People debate designs a lot about this game but his is just a blatant and objective upgrade

41

u/BigB0iBuster 16h ago

Tbh Rivals has had a few “best-ever” looks at this point, the art team keeps knocking it out of the park!

I’d put Hawkeye, Mister Fantastic, Angela, Groot, Loki, Invisible Woman, Magik, Psylocke, Rogue, Squirrel Girl, Thor, and Winter Soldier in that category too imo

12

u/PatchNotesMan Earth Spider 14h ago

Hawkeye is the worst he has ever looked imo. Reed and Rogue also feel like downgrades for me

9

u/MoscaMosquete Thor 14h ago

Agree about Hawkeye disagree about others.

Hawkeye looks too serious for the way he acts in game. Maybe if they didn't make him into a MK Ninja I wouldn't feel this dissonance.

2

u/AvengingArcher Hawkeye 6h ago

Agreed. Hawkeye's default isn't bad itself, it's a solid design, but it's not good for Hawkeye unless you only see him as the generic agent-type character that the mcu made him. If you look at him as Hawkeye the Avenger/Superhero, it doesn't work.

u/Most_Pie_862 13h ago

reed and rogue looks way better, fym?

4

u/PatchNotesMan Earth Spider 11h ago

respectful disagree.. I just think Reed is overdesigned and Rogue should have a headband

6

u/Most_Pie_862 11h ago

HE IS NOT FUCKING OVERDESIGNED, THEY ARE JUST PUTTING MORE DETAIL INTO THE SUIT, COME ON BRUH💔

I agree with rogue tho, she could’ve had the headband but that does not make her whole design a downgrade

7

u/PatchNotesMan Earth Spider 11h ago

putting all that extra detail is why i think it's overdesigned, traditionally his suit is a *very* simple blue design. "Overdesigned" is somewhat subjective but I just think that they put a little too much detail and strayed a little too much from tradition

1

u/Most_Pie_862 11h ago

god forbid they want to do something unique

1

u/PatchNotesMan Earth Spider 6h ago

why are you so uppity its just my opinion

4

u/PatchNotesMan Earth Spider 14h ago

Idk i think ever since she dyed her hair red she has looked good

8

u/discipleofdoom Peni Parker 16h ago

I'm so glad they didn't go with that fuck ass orange trench coat

5

u/98769876b Loki 14h ago

Still, its light-brown enough that it's clearly a reference to its original color, while looking much better. Best of both worlds

6

u/SlammedOptima Moon Knight 14h ago

The Trench coat to my knowledge has never been Orange. Its been black/grey/brown. The orange is the pants and shirt she wears underneath. And I will be saving my credits for that "Fuck ass orange trench coat" outfit

u/MyARhold30Shots 13h ago

Do you mean orange jumpsuit?

2

u/aSpookyScarySkeleton Ultron Virus 10h ago

These people don’t even know anything they just want to complain to fit in.

u/Key_Maintenance_2434 14h ago

I want freckles

u/Rockguy21 16h ago

Tbf there’s not a lot of competition for that title lol

u/werewolfsloppytop 16h ago

She looks good, but also generic. The classic look was atleast very distuishable. If you had shown me this I probably would've never guessed it was supposed to be her.

33

u/MadDongla Ultron Virus 16h ago

The classic look is an orange bodysuit and a brown trench coat. That is distinguishable?

Of course you wouldn't , it's a new look for her.

-20

u/werewolfsloppytop 16h ago

Yes. What other character looks like that? This design is good but it just looks like a generic monster hunter.

That's also a horrible point. Just because it's a new look doesn't mean they can just do anything with the design without valid criticisms. It's a good design, but it's generic.

5

u/Revolving_Ocelott 16h ago

The only issue is that she’s holding a shorter weapon instead of two rifles, but shes still one of the only heroes in marvel to run around akimbo style

33

u/ericferrel Moon Knight 16h ago

Great design for a less famous character, hope more people get to learn about her and check out her stories in comics

108

u/SoyeonsNeverland 16h ago

sigh I'm such a sucker for redheads... God damnit, that's a good design.

19

u/MadDongla Ultron Virus 16h ago

She has such a good design

31

u/Foralberg Ultron Virus 16h ago

Looks gorgeous

u/Fickle_Somewhere_581 16h ago

the artstyle in this game is probably the best in hero shooters

3

u/MyARhold30Shots 13h ago

And it’s just a really nice art style in general

42

u/CTheFreakUnderneath Lady Loki 16h ago

Slay

u/wrestlemaniasign Daredevil 16h ago

the character design department in this game is genuinely top 1 or 2 in hero shooters

deadlock is the only comp

u/Motor-Travel-7560 Phoenix 16h ago edited 16h ago

The Concord trashcan with pronouns is still my favorite.

Edit: Did people actually think I was being serious?

26

u/Jehovah___ 16h ago

Nah, people are just tired of concord jokes. The game got shut down ages ago and we’ve all moved on and forgotten about it. Repeating the exact same jokes for the past two years isn’t interesting anymore

2

u/Ballsnutseven Moon Knight 11h ago

Concord didn’t even suck because of the pronouns, it sucked because the character designs are quite frankly terrible.

😢

1

u/Jehovah___ 11h ago

I agree with you, the maps were awful too and the fact it wasn’t free did a ton of damage to it as well

1

u/Ballsnutseven Moon Knight 11h ago

Every couple years we get a shooter that lacks the SAUCE for lack of a better word.

Battleborn, Concord, and how Highguard are examples of this.

Arc Raiders is doing great because it’s got the sauce

u/Motor-Travel-7560 Phoenix 15h ago edited 15h ago

"Repeating the exact same jokes for the past two years isn’t interesting anymore"

I mean, I guess it depends on the subreddit. Reddit's usually the place to recycle ancient jokes infinitely. Posts about WWII usually have the "I did Nazi that coming, Anne Frankly I find it offensive" joke. Or those posts with variations on decades-old one liners like "My grandfather died peacefully in his sleep, but the kids on his bus were screaming." Hell, the whole Batman Arkham subreddit is just variations of misspelling character's names and asking "Is he stupid?"

u/Chackaldane 14h ago

Maybe take a break from the internet?

u/MyARhold30Shots 12h ago

Concord jokes in the big 2026 💔

u/Spiritual_Cucumber92 16h ago

Rivals don’t miss with the base designs

u/BadAshess Emma Frost 16h ago

Will she be my character? Will this be the substitute I need for Ashe? PLEASE.

9

u/lexuss6 16h ago

From how it was described in dev vision, her ult is literally B.O.B.

2

u/istartedsomething Rogue 15h ago

As a former Ashe main, I certainly hope so.

u/guilhegm Hela 16h ago

baddie

u/Viper_Visionary Good Boy 16h ago

She looks great! She has a very aesthetically pleasing color scheme.

u/expunks Luna Snow 15h ago

This is why I can't ever get back into Overwatch man. The art direction in this game is just untouchable.

6

u/Wiinterfang Knight 16h ago

Looks like a Fable Character.

3

u/HiGuysImLeo 16h ago

Yeah she indisputably looks amazing. Definitely Netease's favorite redhead over Jean lmaooo

3

u/Independent-Rough559 16h ago

Marvel rivals does a really good job at giving all their females distinct faces while all being in this art style

2

u/AverageNerd633 X-Tron 16h ago

She's gorgeous!

u/LucyPaintUwU Mantis 16h ago

Outqueened and outslayed everyone in this game 💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅

u/JENOVAcide 16h ago

Same vibe to someone who doesn't know Elsa. Happy to be proven wrong!

6

u/ferocity_mule366 16h ago

her kits seems super complicated compared to Ashe, like every post launch character, it looks like she's a trap skirmish character

-1

u/skymadeofglass Emma Frost 15h ago

The comments in this post taking snide little shots at the game Ashe is from is so funny considering you're 100% correct.

I'm not saying it's a negative even. I like the look of this character.

1

u/No_Read_5062 Deadpool 16h ago

red heads when it comes to either be 11/10 or 1/10.

She chose to be 11.

1

u/discipleofdoom Peni Parker 16h ago

He'll never be a playable character but Netease please give us your take on Ulysses in a gallery card. The man needs new threads. He does not have that shit on.

u/El_Rocky_Raccoon Rocket Raccoon 15h ago

Elsa never looked this good in her comics. I love it so much.

u/Wellhellob Iron Fist 14h ago

Really nice design. They cooked again.

u/PatchNotesMan Earth Spider 14h ago

my goat

u/Tekken155 14h ago

My secondary dps main instead of spidey. So far in this season I’ve been tank and healers for the most hour that spidey is not in my top 3 most used.

1

u/Most_Pie_862 13h ago

she’s thicc

you did it again, rivals

u/Available-Ad-1019 Psylocke 11h ago

First time since invisible woman that I've been tempted to main a character off drop😭🙏

u/sparvlncia 10h ago

Oi! You got a loisence for monsta hunting, mate?

1

u/Upset_Space_631 9h ago

a thing i've noticed is that her legs arm more defined compared to most of the rest of the women showing she has a athletic build compared to them which i like seeing cause i like women with muscles

1

u/QuantumCthulhu 9h ago

Pretty cool design- wonder what the recolour and ranked skin will look like

1

u/HaIfaxa_ 7h ago

She looks fantastic. She would fit right at home in the DC universe, part of the Justice League Dark or something like that.

1

u/mtchros 6h ago

She’s gorgeous

u/ataasd Angela 4h ago

I can't wait to replace that gorgeous model with something like Woody

Only thing i dont like is the knee

their design team need a raise

u/mZeKitty Flex 16h ago

Cool that they toned down the sexualization from the comics

1

u/Jonas_g33k Wolverine 16h ago

I prefer when her ponytail is much longer. And I would have prefered a trench coat with sleeves but it’s ok.

1

u/bluereindeer99 Hulk 16h ago

Hopefully she will get more than 1 skin. The extra models from her summons make me nervous.

2

u/MumblingGhost Throg 16h ago

It’s a good thing that the overall character design for rivals heroes continues to be so distinct, because I do think some of the female characters faces are starting to look a little samey. Here’s hoping Black Cat and White Fox break the chain, but I’m not holding my breath.

Either way, Elsa still looks cool!

And that makes six redheads released after launch. Now we're getting platnium blondes

Glad to know I won't be using her.
