Marvel Contest of Champions (MCOC) is a popular mobile fighting game developed by Kabam, featuring a vast roster of Marvel superheroes and villains.

This has given rise to the phenomenon of “MCOC Unblocked” – versions or methods to play the game outside official channels. This paper explores what “unblocked” means in this context, the technical and ethical considerations, and how the game’s core mechanics (combat, champion collection, mastery system) function in both official and unofficial environments.
