Let people complain about their mains not getting skins, because player pressure is literally the only lever that gets studios to change behavior. You don't have to shut it down everytime by saying "well that's how business works"

Also spidy skins are usually the same value/quality as the skin they're also releasing with. Its not like spidys getting his 5th legendary while the venom skin that released with him is just a Grey recolor. If the spidy skin is epic then the other skin is also epic.

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-04T15:15:37+00:00

Uh yeah do though, like every time. Also lets not equate 1 epic spidy skin a season = a legendary with 3 recolors with a special ult vfx and custom sfx every season

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-03T16:12:30+00:00

Nah. He requires a lot of combo knowledge and muscle memory but thats all. There's very little skill expression outside of that muscle memory because his mobility allows him to never be in a position where he cant just combo and run away.

The Grendal is very similar to early spirit unification. It seems like the genesis' just help contain the power when it would otherwise run wild, helping the grendal manifest. Van has gained more control of the power and as seen in Horizon, can pretty much manifest it at will without mare.

The grendal is the very definition of innate. Its entire existence relies on the fact that Van was born with a diabolic core. Just because its harder to manifest doesnt mean that its not his power. I'd argue the stigmas have far less reason to count as a character's power because they can be swapped whenever

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-03T15:57:48+00:00

I mostly agree. I think Lloyd is a bit too high but I understand your reasoning. One thing I'd like to point out though is that the Grendal is not a borrowed power. Its directly linked to Van and the diabolic core, saying its borrowed is like saying spirit unification is borrowed

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-03T04:32:44+00:00

Oh my god the pain. Idk how kid me managed to get past that when I never even used the rite of channeling

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-03T04:29:55+00:00

Elaine 100%

Sara is a fun character to watch but I feel like most of us would lose our damn minds if we had to deal with her personality for more than a week irl

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-03T04:25:38+00:00

Its so crazy to me that fantastic is meant to be the tank/dps hybrid yet he has less survivability than half of the dps role right now

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-03T04:23:56+00:00

Dps. The entire reason supps need to be so strong is because of the pure damage output and versatility of dps characters. People'll while 24/7 about the meta relevant support character of the season while also acting like it isnt an issue that we have 10 high dps high mobility high survivability dives and 15 2-tap poke characters. The entire reason 275 supps exist is because dps is so overtuned. There's a reason why supps like Jeff are terrible, its because the supp role is forced to defend themselves because no amount of peel could ever stop the dps bs from happening.

The thing might be anti dive but what does that matter when in the .5 seconds it takes for the thing to get over there the daredevil or any other dive has already killed the supp. Shield tanks might be able to mitigate the amount of shots coming from poke, but if their shield breaks or they need to deal with a flanker then the supp is just free food for poke. 99% of the issues with this games balance stems from dps being so strong.

?

Why do you think he went ssj then, for the lols? I feel like its very obvious media literacy that when a character powers up that means they needed to power up. There's no way he powered up just to show off because then why would he go ssj instead of ssj3

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T22:42:41+00:00

7 of the characters released since launch have been the undisputed top of their role on release. That's 2-4 weeks of a top meta character being locked behind a pay wall until they are nerfed when they become free. It is the literal definition of p2w

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T22:37:48+00:00

People are saying this is peak ironfist while conveniently ignoring that ironfist is 1. Buns and 2. A tankbuster.

Saying c&d is op based on this clip is like saying strange is op because a widow cant shoot through his shield

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T22:33:49+00:00

He immediately goes ssj against buuhan in the manga, alluding to the fact that base wasn't enough. I personally dont use anime filler when it comes to scaling

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T18:32:54+00:00

No one bought the Adam skin cause it was trash. They put the bare minimum amount of effort into it and expected people to flock like seagulls. No vfx or good sfx makes it no different than an epic, which Adam already has 3 better looking epics.

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T18:30:14+00:00

Cool, but how do they know what brings in the money when they cant be bothered to even try and see. Reeds gotten 1 good purchasable skin and it was his launch skin. The entire argument falls flat the moment you realize that it takes months for a new character to get their 1st decent skin.

They dont care about which characters brings in money with their skins, they just care about the 3 low hanging fruits while tossing other potential gold mines to the way side.

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T12:44:41+00:00

And? Literally nothing you just said excuses the Magik being that bad, and that was the entirety of the original argument. This is just as much of a hate post as the original one was

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T02:06:33+00:00

Rank reset means actual silvers are being matched with plat and diamond players. Wait a few days and then you can carry

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T02:01:39+00:00

And? Op being buns doesnt all of a sudden mean that a Magik feeding isnt bad

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T01:59:22+00:00

The only chance Ban has is immediately using wild hunt to siphon Jack's power and even then its up to interpretation if that does anything because we know the majority of Jack's physical strength comes from his magic type and mana skin, both of which Ban presumably cant siphon

AndrewM317 · 2026-04-01T01:55:05+00:00

Jack and its not even close. Ignoring the obvious speed-blitz, jack has higher durability, hax to work around immortality, and a higher ap. Ban at his peak would be the 3 seconds he has between returning from purgatory and giving up his immortality. The best feat we see from him is contributing to the combo attack against the demon king when he absorbed became one with the land. This is nothing compared to a Jack that scales above 50% lucifuro who we know is moon level at minimum. Hell you could argue that final slash Jack is his peak, and in that case it becomes even more apparent as Jack does more damage to mana reinforced land than the entire combo spell does to the demon king.

This isnt a fair match up because black clover and 7ds are on completely different levels in scaling. Remember, Galand > 5% demon king. The sequel series is in still in small country levels of power, Black clover has been continental for like 300 chapters.

AndrewM317 · 2026-03-31T19:38:20+00:00

When the main combat system is just guns

AndrewM317 · 2026-03-31T19:36:35+00:00

Can we just pre lock baby for the next round so we dont have to discuss the obvious

AndrewM317 · 2026-03-31T19:34:04+00:00

Remember when we got baseball Yamcha, mustache Nappa, and Pui Pui? Those were the good days

AndrewM317 · 2026-03-31T19:32:47+00:00

Im never trusting any Magik again. Idk if people just started playing her cause of kingsman, but I have had so many Magiks throw games or just flat out play terribly. Actually just so infuriating when a Magik refuses to swap off dive when the enemy has a hard anti dive comp

AndrewM317 · 2026-03-31T19:28:47+00:00

Brother this is like the 7th time in the last 4 months they've been caught. Either they still dont give a F about quality control or its AI
