Lately, there’s been quite the buzz among Marvel Rivals fans who believe Magneto’s ultimate ability, dubbed Meteor M, might not be working as intended. A fresh video has emerged, showing the attack zooming right through an enemy without inflicting any damage, leading to speculation that it might be bugged. Players are crossing their fingers that NetEase Games will roll out a hotfix to tackle the issue promptly.
Recently, a Marvel Rivals enthusiast uploaded a clip revealing this peculiar problem, where Meteor M failed to connect with and damage an enemy. As the game is knee-deep in its Spring Festival event, complete with exclusive Star-Lord skins and the novel Clash of Dancing Lions mode, players are certainly hoping for a resolution soon. This event invites participants to take on supercharged soccer challenges, enriching the gameplay experience.
In Marvel Rivals, Magneto shines as a Vanguard, often positioned upfront to protect his teammates. Equipped with a forward-facing shield and the ability to envelop himself or an ally in a protective bubble, he is designed to absorb incoming damage effectively. His ultimate ability, Meteor M, stands out by pulling in nearby projectiles to enhance its impact, proving to be a strategic counter when pitted against powerful foes like Punisher or Star-Lord if deployed with precision.
On Reddit, a user known as Wet_Birthday_Card shared footage exhibiting Magneto’s Meteor M cruising past an enemy without causing any harm. This video prompted many to conclude that what they were witnessing was indeed a glitch. Some players suggest adopting a different aiming strategy—targeting the ground near adversaries—to increase hit rates, while others admitted they initially thought their failures were due to poor aim rather than a bug.
With this issue coming to light, the community is hoping for a quick fix from NetEase Games, although there is skepticism given the lingering problem with Moon Knight’s ultimate ability, known for unintentionally dealing double damage. Nonetheless, there’s hope that these discrepancies will be addressed sooner rather than later.
Fans have long debated some of Magneto’s abilities in game discussions. Many think it’s unnecessary for him to pause and reload while using his primary attack, Iron Volley, which boasts a sluggish fire rate. Critics argue that in light of the attack’s lethargy, it should progress uninterrupted. Though it’s uncertain how NetEase Games will respond to such feedback, optimistic players look forward to continuous improvements in balancing and gameplay refinement.
