I had written Marvel Rivals off as a Marvel cash grab, but then I saw the game had breached 400,000 concurrent players on Steam so I had to check it out. What I found was an enjoyable hero shooter with a spot on super hero feeling. One of those heroes happens to be the cutest darn land shark you've ever seen. Meet Jeff the Landshark!

Hi Jeff!
|
Jeff is a support hero that focuses on healing and powering up teammates. He does this in adorable fashion by rolling around and then going underground to do his "land shark" thing. Every-now-and-then he turns on his back and flipping a fish snack up in the air to reload his healing power. Once charged up his ultimate shark attack swallows enemies and teammates alike and either can be spit out or better yet, for the enemies, is to just swim off the map with them.

The land shark can also climb walls!

Who's the cutest MVP? Jeff!

Jeff Jeff Jeff! MVP MVP MVP! 6 kills, 1 death, 25 assists - top healing, assists, and a 4 KO ultimate

The stats so far; not a great win rate but still a ton of cuteness! |

Oh and did I mention Jeff can ride on Groot's shoulders for a team up moment? Bad screenshot but you get the idea.
