Marvel Rivals SVP: What It Means & How it is Determined

If you have been playing Marvel Rivals and seen the title "SVP" on the scoreboard, you must be wondering what it means. Most players are familiar with MVP (Most Valuable Player), but SVP (Second Valuable Player) might leave you scratching your head. Let's break it down!

What Is SVP?

SVP stands for Second Valuable Player, which is basically the runner-up for MVP. It's given to the player who has had the second-highest impact on the match. Although MVP takes the spotlight for their top performance, SVP still recognizes the player who contributed a lot to the team's efforts.

 

 

How Is SVP Decided?

The game looks at several factors to determine who gets SVP, just like how MVP is chosen. These factors include:

• Damage Output: The amount of damage you had in the game.
• Kills/Eliminations: The count of the number of kills.
• Survival: How many times you survived.
• Support Contributions: This depends on the hero, the amount of damage blocked or healing given.
   

Even if your team loses, you may still gain SVP as your game will be above the others.

Why does SVP matter?

Here's where SVP gets interesting: in ranked matches, if you earn SVP even though you lose the match, you will not lose any rank points. This might be a game-changer because it protects your rank despite a loss.

Example

Imagine you’re playing, and your team is getting dominated, but you’re still playing incredibly well—dealing damage, staying alive, and supporting teammates. Even though your team loses, earning SVP means your rank is safe, as you won’t lose any points for that match.
