Marvel Rivals: Understanding the SVP Title
Marvel Rivals, a free-to-play PvP hero shooter, clearly designates top and bottom performers after each match. This guide explains the meaning and significance of SVP.
What Does SVP Mean in Marvel Rivals?
SVP stands for Second Valuable Player. This accolade is given to the player who performs best on the losing team. It's distinct from MVP (Most Valuable Player), awarded to the best player on the winning team.
How to Achieve SVP Status
Earning SVP depends on your character's role and performance. Here's a breakdown:
| Role | Key Performance Indicator |
|---|---|
| Duelist | Highest damage dealt |
| Strategist | Most HP healed |
| Vanguard | Most damage blocked |
Consistent strong performance in your designated role significantly increases your chances of receiving SVP, even in defeat.
Benefits of SVP
Currently, SVP doesn't offer in-game rewards in casual matches; it's purely a recognition of individual skill within a losing team.
However, community consensus suggests that achieving SVP in Competitive matches prevents the loss of ranked points. Normally, a Competitive loss results in a rank reduction. SVP seemingly mitigates this, preserving your rank and making progression slightly easier.
