Marvel Rivals stats measure what you did in a match: kills, deaths and assists (KDA), final hits, solo kills, damage dealt, damage blocked, healing and accuracy. No single number proves you played well. Read each stat against your role, your hero and your rank, and treat win rate over many matches as the result that matters most.

Below is what each stat on the scoreboard means, what NetEase Games has and has not explained about MVP and SVP, how the in-game career screen differs from third-party trackers, and which numbers deserve your attention as a Vanguard, Duelist or Strategist.

What stats does the Marvel Rivals scoreboard show?

The post-match scoreboard lists kills, deaths, assists, final hits, damage, damage blocked, healing and accuracy, along with medals earned during the match, according to GameWith's Marvel Rivals MVP guide. Your career profile, opened from the profile icon on the home screen, adds a Statistics tab with longer-term totals such as solo kills and final hits.

Every one of these is a raw output. None of them knows whether your damage hit a tank that was being healed through it or a Strategist who died a second later. Context is your job.

Stat What it measures Why it matters Main blind spot
KDA Kills and assists relative to deaths Quick read on how often you contribute to eliminations versus how often you die Assists are easy to collect; a high KDA can still come from safe, low-impact play
Final hits Eliminations where your hit was the last one Shows how well you convert damage into actual picks Rewards last-hitting, not who created the kill
Solo kills Eliminations you secured without help Signals dueling strength and flank pressure A low number is normal for heroes built around team fights
Damage Total damage dealt to enemies Pressure on the enemy team and resources Damage into shields or heavily healed targets can look big and change nothing
Damage blocked Damage absorbed by your shields and defensive abilities Core Vanguard value: how much fire you soaked for the team Blocking in bad positions still counts
Healing Health restored to allies Core Strategist value: keeping the team alive Topping off players out of danger inflates it
Accuracy Share of shots that hit Useful for hitscan and projectile aim practice Melee, beam and area heroes are poorly described by it

How are KDA, final hits and solo kills different?

KDA folds assists in with kills, so it credits anyone who contributed to an elimination. That makes it generous to supports and to heroes with wide area damage, and it rises quickly for players who avoid deaths.

Final hits only count the last blow. A Duelist with plenty of final hits is closing out fights; one with lots of damage but few final hits may be spreading pressure without confirming picks. Solo kills go one step further and isolate fights you won alone, which matters most for flankers and divers.

  • Use deaths as your first filter. Fewer deaths usually means more time contributing, whatever your role.
  • Use final hits to judge conversion, not raw aggression.
  • Use solo kills only for heroes meant to take one-on-one fights.

Why do per-10-minute stats matter?

Totals favor long matches. A slow, drawn-out game can hand you twice the damage of a fast stomp without you playing any better. Per-10-minute figures divide each stat by your time played and scale it to 10 minutes, which makes matches of different lengths comparable.

NetEase uses the same idea in ranked scoring. In the Season 2 patch notes, reported by Gfinity Esports in April 2025, the developer said Competitive points depend on both the match result and individual performance, so stronger play earns more in a win and costs less in a loss. Dev commentary since then has described comparing a hero's key combat data against averages for that hero at your rank, adjusted for time played, though the exact stat list and weights are not published.

When you compare yourself across matches or heroes, prefer per-10 or per-minute numbers over totals wherever your tracker offers them.

How are MVP and SVP chosen?

NetEase has not published the MVP formula. What is widely documented is how it behaves. During a match, an Ace icon marks the top performer on each team and can move between players. At the end, the winning team's Ace becomes MVP and the losing team's Ace becomes SVP, as explained by Gfinity Esports (February 2025).

Community testing summarized by GameWith suggests the player who holds Ace the longest takes the award, and that role-relevant output feeds it: damage, damage blocked for Vanguards, healing for Strategists, assists, low deaths and multi-kills. Treat those details as observed patterns, not official rules. MVP and SVP carry no reward on their own, so they are a fun signal rather than a ranking tool.

In-game career stats vs tracker sites: what is the difference?

The in-game career profile is the official record. It shows your own totals and lets you view a friend's career, but it is built for browsing, not analysis.

Third-party trackers pull match data and add views the client does not, such as seasonal win rate, KDA trends, rank history and hero-level breakdowns. The Tracker Network Marvel Rivals app launched in February 2025 with live in-match stats including rank, peak rank, seasonal win rate, KDA and most-played heroes. Meta sites such as CounterWatch publish hero win rates (its Season 10 page was updated October 13, 2026) and note that rates are pulled toward the average when a hero has few tracked matches.

What to check before trusting a tracker

  • Does it state the season and date of the data?
  • Does it say which ranks and modes are included?
  • Does it handle small samples, as CounterWatch says it does?
  • Is the profile you are viewing public and recently updated?

None of these sites are affiliated with NetEase, and private profiles will not show full data.

What is a good KDA or damage number in Marvel Rivals?

There is no reliable, published benchmark for "good" KDA, damage, healing or damage blocked in Marvel Rivals. NetEase does not release role averages, and the trackers reviewed for this post publish hero win and pick rates rather than stat averages by rank. Numbers swing heavily by hero, mode and season, so any fixed target would mislead you.

Judge yourself relatively instead:

  1. Compare your per-10 numbers on one hero against your own last 20 to 30 matches on that hero.
  2. Compare against players at your rank on the same hero using a tracker.
  3. Watch your win rate on the hero over a meaningful sample, not a handful of games.

For how rank tiers and divisions work, see Marvel Rivals ranks explained.

Which stats matter most for Vanguard, Duelist and Strategist?

The three roles map roughly to tank, damage and support. Vanguards hold space and protect the team, Duelists deal damage, and Strategists heal, buff and support allies, as described in the Epic Games Store hero guide.

Vanguard

Prioritize damage blocked per 10 and deaths. A Vanguard who blocks a lot but dies first in every fight is losing space. Assists show you are enabling picks rather than standing still.

Duelist

Prioritize final hits and damage per 10, then solo kills for flank and dive heroes. Accuracy is helpful for hitscan practice but says little for melee or area heroes.

Strategist

Prioritize healing per 10, deaths and assists. Staying alive matters more here than anywhere: a dead Strategist heals nobody. Damage from a Strategist is a bonus, never at the cost of keeping allies up.

How do you use stats to actually improve?

Stats are a diagnosis tool. Pick one number per week, find the habit behind it and fix that habit through practice and review.

  • High deaths: review replays for the moment each death started. Usually it is positioning or over-chasing, not aim.
  • High damage, low final hits: focus fire with your team on one target instead of spreading damage.
  • Low healing per 10: check whether you are dying, out of line of sight, or dealing damage when allies need you.
  • Low damage blocked: work on when to raise and drop defensive abilities rather than holding them constantly.

Narrow your hero pool so your sample sizes mean something, and check current hero strength on our tier lists or the guides hub. There are no shortcuts here: honest practice and replay review are what move the numbers.

Track your climb. Marvel Rivals player lookups are not live: NetEase does not offer an official stats API, and RankSurge only uses publisher-allowed data. Until that changes, the Marvel Rivals stats hub explains these stats and ranks, and the player lookup is live for Deadlock, CS2, Dota 2 and Destiny 2.

Frequently asked questions

What does KDA mean in Marvel Rivals?

KDA stands for kills, deaths and assists, and it summarizes how often you take part in eliminations compared with how often you die. Because assists are included, supports and area-damage heroes often post high KDAs even with few final blows. It is a useful quick read, but a high KDA can also come from overly safe play that never creates pressure. Pair it with final hits, damage per 10 minutes and win rate on the same hero before deciding whether a match went well.

How is MVP decided in Marvel Rivals?

NetEase Games has not published the MVP formula. During a match, an Ace icon marks each team's top performer and can move between players. When the match ends, the winning team's Ace is named MVP and the losing team's Ace is named SVP. Community testing suggests role-relevant stats such as damage, damage blocked, healing, assists, low deaths and multi-kills feed the Ace rating, and that holding Ace longest matters. Treat these as observed patterns, not official rules.

What is the difference between final hits and solo kills?

A final hit is any elimination where your damage was the last to land, even if teammates did most of the work. A solo kill is an elimination you secured without help from teammates. Final hits show how well you convert damage into picks, which matters for Duelists. Solo kills show dueling strength and flank pressure, which matters for dive and flank heroes. Low solo kills are normal for heroes designed to fight alongside the team.

Does individual performance affect ranked points in Marvel Rivals?

Yes. In its Season 2 patch notes in April 2025, NetEase said the Competitive points you earn depend on both the match result and your individual performance, so strong play earns more in a win and loses fewer points in a defeat. The developer has described comparing your hero's key combat data against averages for that hero at your rank, adjusted for time played. The exact stats and weights are not public, and the system may change between seasons.

What is a good KDA or healing number in Marvel Rivals?

No reliable published benchmark exists. NetEase does not release role averages, and major trackers mostly publish hero win and pick rates rather than stat averages by rank. Numbers vary widely by hero, mode and season. The better approach is to compare your per-10-minute stats on one hero against your own recent matches and against players at your rank on the same hero, then check whether your win rate on that hero is improving over a meaningful sample.

Are tracker sites for Marvel Rivals official?

No. Sites such as Tracker Network, RivalsMeta and CounterWatch are independent and not affiliated with NetEase Games or Marvel. The in-game career profile is the official record of your stats. Trackers are useful because they add seasonal win rate, KDA trends, rank history and hero breakdowns, but check that a site states its season, update date and rank range, and remember that private profiles will not show full data.
