Marvel Rivals has kicked off its Competitive Play mode with the launch of Season 0 - Dooms' Rise, allowing any player who reaches level 10 to engage in skill-based matchmaking. Starting from the Bronze rank, players can climb the competitive ladder by selecting from over thirty characters across the Strategist, Duelist, and Vanguard roles. Each win contributes to earning points, propelling you through the rank divisions.
As you ascend the ranks during a Competitive Season, you unlock seasonal rewards, such as cosmetic skins for characters and Crests of Honor—emblems you can display on your profile to flaunt your peak achievements. In Season 1 - Eternal Night Falls, players can earn the exclusive Blood Shield skin for the new Strategist character, Invisible Woman, through competitive play.
How to Get Invisible Woman's Blood Shield Skin For Free in Marvel Rivals
Season 1 - Eternal Night Falls brought several exciting updates to Marvel Rivals, including enhancements to Competitive Play. A new rank, Celestial, was introduced between Grandmaster and Eternity, offering three tiers for players to conquer. Alongside hero adjustments, the season introduced new rewards, including S2 Crest variants for those reaching Grandmaster and above, and the coveted Blood Shield skin for Invisible Woman.
To claim the Blood Shield skin for Invisible Woman, players must reach the rank of Gold III or higher during the competitive season. Importantly, these rewards are based on your peak rank, not your final rank at the season's end. So, even if you drop below Gold III after reaching it, you'll still be eligible for the skin. However, you won't receive the Blood Shield skin until the start of Marvel Rivals Season 3, as seasonal rewards are distributed at the conclusion of each season.
