Flawless Marvel Rivals Ranked Run Takes a Disastrous Turn

A Marvel Rivals enthusiast attempting a pacifist run as Rocket Raccoon had an unexpected mishap when they inadvertently inflicted damage on an enemy just shy of reaching Celestial in ranked play. Known for his popularity as a Strategist in the game, Rocket Raccoon excels at healing and providing buffs for his team. While his primary attack can damage opponents, players can choose to focus solely on his supportive abilities instead.

One player, appropriately named NoDmgRocket, aimed to achieve Grandmaster status without causing any damage. They shared their impressive feat on Reddit, showing screenshots of having amassed 2.9 million healing points over 108 matches. Other players were divided in their reactions; some applauded the dedication, while others believed that not participating in combat against enemies could harm team dynamics. Regardless of differing opinions, NoDmgRocket was determined to climb the ranked play ladder without dealing a single hit.

The player later posted a video on YouTube capturing the moment things went awry. As Rocket Raccoon, they were handling a routine match and began an attack on one of Loki’s clones, an action usually damage-free. However, fate intervened when a Cloak and Dagger player suddenly appeared, resulting in an unintended 22 damage. In a humorous nod to the incident, the player captioned the video with “Rocket’s devastated.”

The community’s reactions were mixed once more. Some critiqued NoDmgRocket’s approach to using Rocket Raccoon, suggesting tweaks like changing their username to 22DmgRocket to embrace the moment. Others wondered why the player hadn’t simply disabled their attack button but acknowledged that functions like eliminating Ankhs or clones were still viable without causing damage to foes. As of now, NoDmgRocket hasn’t hinted at their next move.

For many, accomplishing a pacifist run with most Strategists in Marvel Rivals might seem unattainable. Yet, Rocket Raccoon comes equipped with skills that make peacekeeping possible. His ultimate boosts allies’ attacks, and he can bring fallen comrades back to life—all from a safe distance. Even against formidable enemies, his escape abilities provide an edge with maneuvers like wall climbing or dashing to safety. As interest in their journey grows, gamers are eagerly watching to see what path NoDmgRocket will choose next.
