Unstable Molecules are a single-purpose currency in Marvel Rivals: they customise costumes you already own, and nothing else. The free source most players miss is the Hero Proficiency track, which pays 500 Unstable Molecules per hero. What They Actually Buy Unstable Molecules pay for two things, both tied to costumes already in your collection: Chromas, … Read more
Units are the currency that buys most of the Marvel Rivals store, and you cannot buy them directly with real money.
