The latest limited time mode in Marvel Rivals, Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure, has only been live for a few hours, but the game’s dedicated players already have a lot to say about it.
Part of the Galacta’s Cosmic Adventure event, Clone Rumble tasks both squads with selecting a character each game, and then only those two heroes are available to play during the match that takes place on the Birnin T’Challa map.

While many seem to think that the mode is fun, there’s also plenty of complaints on how to make the latest Marvel Rivals addition even more exciting, as evidenced by a lengthy Reddit thread from the morning tit arrived.
A lot of players agree that the mode gets “boring” quickly since it’s always the same map and Domination mode, and it can sometimes push to three rounds, lengthening the matches more than many players would like. “Feel like it should’ve been one round only, matches get boring very quick,” said the top-rated commenter in the thread, and other commenters agree with the sentiment. “Only having one map really hurts the mode IMO, gets boring really fast,” another said.
The other main issues players are venting about is the fact that multiples of certain heroes can get oppressive really fast, as you may expect from a mode that thrives on chaos like this. Several heroes have been banned for balance sake, with most of them Strategists, but Jeff the Land Shark survived the ban wave.
“Why [did] they ban some healers?” a Jeff hater complained. “Either keep everything or ban all the healers. Six Jeffs is literally unbeatable.” Meanwhile, another player embraced the Shark chaos, saying “Man, I love how stupid and random this mode is” as they “just had 12 Thors and Jeffs running around all over the place.”
It’s totally okay if the mode is not for you, gamers. I agree that it does get old pretty quickly, but with only one challenge to unlock via the game mode and other basic ones rewarding event currency to spend and unlock rewards, playing it is not a total requirement like the past events.
The chaos is the fun part, at least for me. You go into every game knowing that it’s going to be silly, like 12 Peni Parkers littering an entire map with webs and bombs, making it almost impossible for everyone else to move around, as one player who said.

Embrace the chaos. Have fun with it. Or don’t. There’s several other modes to play and ways to grind reward currency, so you’re not required to play the mode if you really don’t want to.
“It’s been absolute stupid fun which is exactly what I want out of these events, take me out of the grind and let me do some nonsense for a while,” said one chaos-embracer. And this is the mindset I’ll be using going forward, too.
