Most content creators are trying to get viral soundbites in their interviews, but streamer and YouTuber Loserfruit had a much better idea and asked Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Joseph Quinn to try out their respective heroes in <a class=\"sc-1out364-0 dPMosf sc-145m8ut-0 erKGZM js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;Internal link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/kotaku.com\/marvel-rivals-review-hero-shooter-overwatch-netease-1851717975&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/marvel-rivals-review-hero-shooter-overwatch-netease-1851717975\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Marvel Rivals<\/a>. So if you\u2019ve ever wanted to see Pascal use Mister Fantastic\u2019s stretchy limbs to help claim an objective, you can finally do that now.<\/p>\n<p>Ring Psychology: Understanding The 6 Phases Of A Wrestling Match Through Heel Era John Cena<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Loserfruit sat down with the First Steps cast and had each of them jump into Marvel Rivals\u2019s practice range to try out their heroes. Pascal played as Mister Fantastic, Kirby controlled Invisible Woman, Moss-Bachrach did some clobbering as the Thing, and Quinn ignited the skies as Human Torch. Before they get started, Kirby says she loves playing games, and Pascal mentions she\u2019s big on The Sims. The rest of the crew says they have pretty limited gaming experience. Quinn played FIFA as a kid and Pascal says he never played anything past the original NES. So by and large, it sounds like the actors are about to enter uncharted territory playing NetEase\u2019s hero shooter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Loserfruit shows the cast some of the cosmetics in the game, including Invisible Woman\u2019s wildly popular Malice skin depicting her villainous alter ego, which was a real crowd-pleaser. It seems like a missed opportunity to not have the actors play with the skins <a class=\"sc-1out364-0 dPMosf sc-145m8ut-0 erKGZM js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;Internal link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/kotaku.com\/fantastic-4-first-steps-pedro-pascal-mr-fantastic-reed-1851786015&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/fantastic-4-first-steps-pedro-pascal-mr-fantastic-reed-1851786015\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">based on their movie appearances<\/a>, but those unfortunately aren\u2019t live until tomorrow, July 25, so the default skins will have to do.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">The actors all face a bit of a learning curve, and Pascal even jokes about needing \u201cconsole classes\u201d to learn how to play. After some time in the practice range, the group entered a real online game, but Loserfruit asked the other players to \u201cpls be nice\u201d to the actors in chat. The cast passed the controller around during a match, and it wasn\u2019t until Pascal played that any of them managed to get a kill on the enemy Venom. Well, an assist, but let\u2019s not get technical.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Check out the full video below:<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">All four actors are pretty busy right now, so it\u2019s not like they have time to become pro gamers in the midst of promoting First Steps and shooting their upcoming MCU appearances in Avengers: Doomsday.
