Leaks suggest Amaranth could arrive in Marvel Rivals

In Marvel Comics, Amaranth is a young sorceress introduced in Scarlet Witch #6. She was originally mentored by Agatha Harkness and later entrusted to Scarlet Witch. Amaranth's origins are mysterious, though, and her abilities in the comic book infuse witchcraft with chaos magic.

According to the leak, Amaranth is classified as a Duelist Class hero. While specific details are unknown, her abilities are:

Chaos Spike
Spell Counter
Chaos Rain
Frenzied Deterrence

These names suggest a playstyle centered around manipulating chaos magic and countering enemy spells that align well with how she is portrayed in the comics. Considering her close relationship with Scarlet Witch, we might get many interesting voice lines and in-game conversations between them, too, if the hero officially arrives.

Additionally, the image featured in the leak is not the actual in-game footage. The leaker has commissioned a concept artist to make a comic-accurate character design.

Currently, there's no official release date for Amaranth in Marvel Rivals. Given that other heroes with more detailed leaks are still pending release, she will most likely be added to the hero pool later. Players are advised to follow the official game channels across social media platforms for any announcements.
