Marvel Rivals Bounty Website Lets Players Pay Others To Sabotage Ranked Matches

A controversial third-party website called Intlist has gone live, offering real cash rewards to players who deliberately throw ‘Marvel Rivals‘ matches. The platform allows users to post bounties on specific players, paying others to queue into their games and sabotage them from the inside.

The site was co-founded by former professional player EchoRivals. It launched on February 23, 2026, and immediately drew backlash from the community. Intlist claims to target griefers and throwers, but critics argue the platform only doubles the toxicity in every match it touches.

How Does The Intlist Bounty System Work?

Players post a monetary bounty on someone they accuse of throwing or griefing ranked matches. Other users then attempt to queue into the same lobby as the target. If they successfully throw the target’s game, they submit proof and collect 80 percent of the posted reward.

The site includes identifying information like Twitch handles alongside each listing. This makes it easy for bounty hunters to stream-snipe targets and track exactly when they are queuing. Despite this, the founders claim the bounties are “not a green light to harass.”

The fundamental flaw is obvious. Paying someone to throw a match punishes four innocent teammates who had nothing to do with the original complaint. Instead of removing toxicity, the system creates a feedback loop where thrown matches generate more thrown matches.

One Reddit user summed it up simply. They described losing with a griefer, queuing again, and then losing with someone griefing the griefer. The cycle has no endpoint.

Who Is Actually Being Targeted On Intlist?

Despite claiming to hunt down griefers, many bounties are placed on high-profile streamers and professional players. Pro player and content creator Jay3 appeared on the site with a $7 bounty on his head. Multiple “One Above All” ranked players were also listed.

Reports on Reddit claim a wealthy individual has been funding large bounties to target specific players. This has turned high-ranked lobbies into chaos, where teammates may be getting paid to lose. No one at the top of the competitive ladder feels safe.

The site also supports bounties for ‘Overwatch,’ ‘Valorant,’ ‘Counter-Strike 2,’ ‘League of Legends,’ ‘Dota 2,’ and ‘Deadlock.’ However, the ‘Marvel Rivals‘ community has been the most vocal in demanding its removal.

Why Did Intlist Go Offline?

The site was forced offline shortly after launch. EchoRivals’ founder announced on Discord that Intlist suffered unauthorized access by a single individual. Several email addresses linked to bounty posts were exposed in the breach.

EchoRivals stated that no passwords, payment information, or IP addresses were compromised. The site is currently listed as under maintenance, with the founders claiming they are preparing updates before relaunching.

The community is now demanding that NetEase take direct action. Players want permanent bans for anyone associated with bounty sites. The current penalty system only issues short cooldowns, with some bans lasting as little as 15 minutes. That timer even runs while the game is closed.

Intlist has offered to shut down voluntarily if NetEase removes what the community calls Engagement-Oriented Matchmaking and begins permanently banning throwers. NetEase has denied using such a system on multiple occasions.

For now, ranked matches in ‘Marvel Rivals’ remain caught between a developer accused of inaction and a vigilante platform, making the problem worse.
