Many Marvel Rivals players, especially those climbing the Competitive Play ladder, have reported aim issues during Season 0 – Doom's Rise. This guide explains how to address inaccurate aim by disabling mouse acceleration and aim smoothing. While helpful for controller users, this feature often hinders precise aiming for keyboard and mouse players.
Marvel Rivals enables mouse acceleration/aim smoothing by default, lacking an in-game toggle. Disabling this improves flick shots and precise aiming. This adjustment is not considered cheating; it simply modifies a game setting file, similar to changing in-game options like crosshair or sensitivity.
Disabling Aim Smoothing/Mouse Acceleration: A Step-by-Step Guide

At the file's end, add these lines:
