Recursive Destruction, introduced in Season 1 of Marvel Rivals, is a unique mechanic that rebuilds destructible objects instead of simply destroying them. This dynamic feature changes the map layout and creates new tactical opportunities for players.
In this guide, we will explain how to trigger Recursive Destruction, its relevance to missions and events, and tips for maximizing its effectiveness in gameplay.
Steps to Trigger Recursive Destruction
Locate a Red-Glowing Object
Destructible objects capable of Recursive Destruction emit a faint red glow with lines around them. These are primarily found on the Midtown map. Spotting these objects is the first step toward activating the mechanic.
Use Chrono Vision
Activate Chrono Vision (press B on keyboard or Right D-pad on a controller) to clearly identify Recursive Destruction objects. In this mode, red-glowing objects stand out, while regular destructible objects appear in yellow.
Attack the Object
Once located, repeatedly attack the red-glowing object. As the object undergoes repairs and changes its form, Recursive Destruction is triggered, altering the environment dynamically.
Locations
Midtown Map
As of Season 1, Midtown is the only map featuring Recursive Destruction. Familiarize yourself with this map to efficiently trigger the mechanic.
Specific Locations Within Midtown
- A large, broken Iron Man suit located halfway through the map.
- Various destructible buildings found in the third portion of the map.
Knowing these hotspots can save time and ensure success during gameplay.
Tips for Triggering Recursive Destruction
- Play on Midtown: Use the “Quick Match (Midtown)” option to guarantee access to the map featuring Recursive Destruction.
- Use Ranged Characters: Characters with ranged attacks are more effective for targeting distant objects.
- Attacker Advantage: As an attacker, focus on triggering Recursive Destruction after capturing the first checkpoint.
- Focus Fire: Concentrate attacks on a single object to activate the effect quickly.
Relevance to Missions and Events
Seasonal Missions
Certain missions in Season 1 require triggering Recursive Destruction. For example, the “Who Needs Damage Control?” challenge in the Midnight Features event involves triggering this effect three times in Midtown.
Event Rewards
Completing Recursive Destruction-related missions can yield valuable rewards, such as 100 Chronos tokens for completing the “Who Needs Damage Control?” challenge.
Conclusion
Recursive Destruction adds an exciting layer of strategy to Marvel Rivals’ gameplay. By understanding how to trigger this unique mechanic and where to find it, you can gain a tactical advantage and complete missions for valuable rewards. Make sure to utilize Chrono Vision and focus your attacks on red-glowing objects in Midtown to maximize your efficiency.
