Marvel Rivals just gave fans a look at their silly incoming event which gives everyone a big head, but there are some permanent goods to earn from Giant-Size Brain Blast that you could keepin your cosmetic collection permanently.

There is a Brain Blast emote for anyone looking to bring the BobbleHeads outside of Brain Blast mode, and they’re fairly simple to earn.
How to Earn the Brain Blast Emote
According to Rivals insider Miller Ross, the Brain Blast emote can be earned by playing 10 rounds of Giant-Size Brain Blast. However, you can only pick the emote for one character, so you have to choose wisely which one you want to give a big ol’ noggin.
While Brain Blast does allow you to play with the Big Head Mode on, it does look like the emote is just going to be available as that—an emote. If anything, making it a playable appearance does put a disadvantage to whoever’s using it—seeing that it would be 100% easier to land a headshot on them.
Other Rewards

These title cards are said to be credited to players automatically, so they don’t really have to do much work trying to redeem them as long as they rank high on the leader board.
The Battle Rages On
It is interesting that NetEase would drop a game mode around the same time that Overwatch is also dropping their new Stadium game mode. With OW’s Stadium being more complicated though, a ‘Big Head Mode’ is barely competing with it, but seeing as to how fast Rivals got so popular in such a short period of time, announcing a Big Head Mode like it’s no big deal kind of feels like NetEase is just teasing Blizzard at this point.
Giant-Size Brain Blast has two launch days, one on April 25, and another on May 2. Marvel Rivals is now playable for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC.
