What are seasonal boosts in Marvel Rivals?

Seasonal boosts in Marvel Rivals are applied to specific characters during the ongoing season and are removed following the season. The boosts vary depending on the character.

For Duelists, seasonal boosts provide increased damage output, while Vanguards benefit from increased health, and Strategists are given a boost in their healing capabilities. With these, characters are much stronger, and the system has proven to be controversial.

Confusion has centered around the feature as the characters are listed as a “Team-up Anchor,” but the bonus is applied regardless of whether their Team-Up ability is activated.
