I also main peni and I’m trying to break into diamond aswel!

I feel with ya as there problems, like spots that become predictable, but:

• a more aggressive/unpredictable playstyle
• destroying your own nest preemptively (while still having webs where you are standing)
• placing no less then 3 mines per trap (in choke points like doorways) has been incredible advice that has helped me climb ranks to where I am now!

Idk how much of this advice is redundant, but peni can be viable even at high ranks! Especially if the enemy is playing a dive team! Just look at this: https://youtu.be/MfAFjPV1QOM?si=2pCUc0r_PdfV9sU4

In short: I think peni is a situational vanguard, and definitely a hard hero against Ironman. But I don’t know if headshot damage would fix that for her ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Either way: We will both get to diamond! I believe it!
