The 10 Best Skins in Marvel Rivals (So Far)

Introduction

---

Marvel Rivals has quickly grown to be one of the most popular hero shooters, and part of the reason is the fact that you can play with iconic Marvel characters. Those are cool on their own, but it gets even better when cosmetics come into play. We went looking for the best skins in Marvel Rivals and listed some of our favorites for you to consider. These are, according to us, the best Marvel Rivals skins that you can buy right now.

Blood Soldier – Winter Soldier

---

Winter Soldier is one of the most played Duelists out there, and reasonably so; he is fun to play, easy to get kills with, and strong in the meta.

Despite that, he doesn’t have a lot of skins to his name. Among the limited number of skins, Blood Soldier stands out as the best-looking one. It’s edgy, dark, and fits Bucky’s character like a glove. It also has that vampire hunter-esque vibe, which is also a plus.

It’s by far the most creative and unique skin Bucky has right now, which makes this a perfect buy if you main him.

Spider-Punk 2099 – Spider-Man

---

This list wouldn’t be complete without a skin of Marvel’s most iconic superhero, our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Despite being the most difficult hero to play in the game, a lot of players gravitate towards the web-swinging menace. After all, hunting the enemy team’s healers while swinging around the battlefield is endlessly fun.

Unlike Winter Soldier, Spider-Man has a lot of skins, which also makes it hard to pick just one. But, for this list, our pick is the Spider-Punk 2099 skin. The skin has a futuristic and Cyberpunk-esque look to it. It’s loud, vibrant, and will get a lot of attention from your friends.

While Bag-Man Beyond is the go-to skin tryhard skin for Spider-Man mains, the Spider-Punk 2099 stands out as the most visually stunning.

Twilight Duo – Cloak and Dagger

---

Similar to Spider-Man, Cloak and Dagger is also a relatively difficult hero to play. You are playing two characters at the same time, after all. However, they are a must-pick in competitive lobbies (see Marvel Rivals Ranked Explained), which is why we wanted to include a skin of hers.

Thankfully, there are a lot of great options to choose from, like Growth and Decay, Lemon Lime, and Dance Partner. But the one that stands out the most is the Twilight Duo skin. 

The skin features Cloak and Dagger in fancy and classy suits, as if they’re ready to go to a ball. The aesthetic fits well with their characters, which is why we chose this as Cloak and Dagger’s best skin.

Guariands of the Galaxy Vol 3 – Groot

---

Groot is one of the most fun tanks to play right now. There is nothing better than spamming walls in the enemy’s faces and annoying them. While they are good Groot skins, the skin from the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 movie hits differently.

It’s the recreation of the teenager Groot from the movie. This skin makes him look bulky with a lot of muscles, which makes him really feel like a tank. This is the most unique skin Groot has, as the others are just recolors or slight modifications of the original.

Empress Of The Cosmos – Hela

---

Similar to Cloak and Dagger, Hela has also become an S-tier duelist in high-end lobbies. As such, she needs to have good skin to back up how lethal she is in the meta.

While there are good options like Goddess of Death and Ultimate, the Empress of the Cosmos is by far the sickest-looking skin she has. It’s just as the name suggests; she looks like a deity that rules the cosmos. Her cape and skin look part of a nebulae, and the three-eyed crown tops the whole skin off. Overall, it’s by far one of the best-designed skins out there. 

Eldtricht Armor – Magik

---

A good Magik can be terrifying to play against, and that should reflect in her skin. The Eldritch Armor fits that description perfectly. The combination of the white medieval armor with blue inferno looks extremely sick.

You’re guaranteed to scare your opponents just by rocking this skin. Apart from this, Punkchild is also an honorable mention. It’s Cyberpunk mixed with a bit of goth, resulting in an edgy futuristic skin. If that’s your vibe, go for it, but we like the Eldritch Armor better.

Jade Maiden – Mantis

---

Despite being a really solid healer and a fun hero to play, Mantis does not have a lot of good skins. There is the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3-inspired skin and a Knowhere Corp skin, both of which look decent.

But, the title of best skin is a competition between two of her skins: Jade Maiden and Galactic Wing. And between the two, Jade Maiden just looks slightly better. There is an obvious inspiration from traditional Kung fu attire and the overall look and feel of a Jade Palace. She looks like a Martial arts master taken from the history pages.

It’s really unique skin and fits her character well. While other characters have edgy and dark skins that people tend to enjoy, this one stands out as being the opposite.

Mister Knight – Moon Knight

---

Moon Knight is one of Marvel’s coolest vigilantes, and the same can be said in the game. Thankfully, he has some decent skins, including Fist Of Vengeance, Lunar General, and Blood Moon Knight. While Lunar General is the most unique and over-the-top skin there is, Mister Knight offers a clean and minimalistic look that makes it look quite good.

Without going too much into the lore, Mister Knight is the Moon Knight version of Steven Grant and one of the main personalities of Moon Knight. He fights crime in a suit and tie with a cape on which on its own is quite sick. Now, you can look sick while taking names as well.

King of Spartax – Star Lord

---

Star Lord is designed to be a cool and chill character, with sassy voicelines. He has a couple of good skins to choose from,  like Master of the Sun and the MCU’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 skin.

While some might prefer the flamboyant Master of the Sun skin, we think that King of Spartax is just cleaner. This skin makes Peter Quill look like an aristocrat from a futuristic empire. Overall, it’s good-looking skin. It’s relatively cheap, too, which is a double win.

Loki Season 2 – Loki

---

Whenever you think of Marvel’s Loki, Tom Hiddleston’s performance of the character comes to mind. He did a brilliant job in all Marvel movies, and even better in the show of the same name. 

So, if you are a Loki main and want to get a skin, the Loki Season 2 skin is the best there is. It’s recreated from the movie’s ending, where Loki becomes the God of Stories. However, if you want something else, Loki has a lot of good skins.

Presidential Attire makes Loki look like a sophisticated politician, and the Frost Giant skin is how Loki looks in his Frost Giant form. We prefer the Season 2 skin though, since it reminds us of Hiddleston’s fantastic performances.

Conclusion
