Marvels Rivals players are in shambles as they've realized Captain America can just deflect Iron Man's ultimate attack right back at him. Earlier this week at Gamescom, the Marvel Rivals release date was finally confirmed for December in a new trailer that also debuted the shooter's iterations of Captain America and The Winter Soldier. The former, as you can probably imagine, can throw his shield between enemies but can also use it to deflect incoming enemy attacks.
It turns out this also includes Iron Man's ultimate attack. The player just below has picked out the section from the Gamescom reveal trailer where Iron Man pops his ultimate attack, a huge ball of crackling energy, only for Captain America to stand his ground and ping the attack right back at him like a tennis ball. Iron Man is predictably killed in the attack, and by his own ultimate, no less.
Reactions to the news are curiously positive about the revelation. Some Marvel Rivals players are typing things like "Thank god that bastard deserved it; he was so annoying" on Twitter, while elsewhere, there's stuff like "All you gotta do is just not aim it at the one guy who can block it," which I suppose is pretty fair advice for Iron Man players. As we've learned with Overwatch's Genji deflect, though, it's easier said than done.
