Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls is coming off a record-breaking open beta weekend, where two particular characters reigned supreme over the rest of the game’s cast.
Despite some glaring issues that plagued PC users, Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls still had a massively successful open beta, raking in more players on Steam than any other fighting game’s open beta before it.
Specifically, Marvel Tokon attracted 33,233 players at its all-time peak, just under 500 more than Street Fighter 6’s famously packed beta back in 2023. For reference, that number was 32,787, while, for comparison’s sake, Tekken 8’s open beta garnered 15,035 players later that same year.
Of those players, a significant portion of them chose two characters more than any others. Those characters are Magick and Blade, respectively, with Magick being the consistent leader of the two. As seen in stats presented by the FGC’s resident data-compiler and infographic creator AlietteFaye, character usage in Vibranium ranks and above saw an overwhelming majority using Magick overall, as well as using her as a Team Leader.
Blade wasn’t far behind, ranking as the second most-used character overall.

Magick still maintained her popularity in this regard, coming in second as an Assist.
