After 17 years since the beginning of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the MCU and Marvel Comics have found an interesting synergy and have pretty much merged at this point. While the comics remain the main source of inspiration for the films and TV shows, the MCU has added tons of original twists -- some of which have made it into the comics. Fans have welcomed some of these changes immediately while despising others even years after they happened.

As one of the many ways in which Marvel Rivals draws from the comics, the game introduced team-ups. These are basically duos or trios of heroes whose skill kits can become better when fighting together. There are 17 team-ups created with the 37 current heroes in the Marvel Rivals roster, but fans think it isn't enough.
