Marvel Rivals players welcomed Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman during their debut weekend in Season 1 (January 10th, 2025), but Reed Richards' reception has been… unique. This stretchy scientist, a Duelist capable of both swift attacks and tank-like defense, is proving surprisingly meme-worthy.
His elastic abilities, allowing him to contort his body into unusual shapes, have fueled numerous comparisons to Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece. This resemblance is so strong that the modding community has already created a One Piece-themed skin, despite NetEase's recent crackdown on modding. His transformations, particularly the rubbery physique, provide ample comedic fodder. Even his beard has become a target of playful edits, as seen in creative posts by users like @BOOMERANG_117 on X/Twitter.
His "Reflexive Rubber" ability, while strategically useful for redirecting enemy damage, is visually quite comical. Mister Fantastic's transformation into a refrigerator-sized being during this move has become a source of amusement. One Reddit user perfectly summed up the sentiment: "Ngl I think Mr. Fantastic's design encapsulates everything great about this game. He's stupid and silly and cheesy and the game just lets him be that and is better for it."
Despite the humorous reactions, Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman have undeniably made a significant impact in their first weekend. The arrival of The Thing and Human Torch in the latter half of Season 1 is highly anticipated, promising even more exciting (and potentially meme-able) additions to the Marvel Rivals roster.
