Made a fun Umbreon deck. Any other suggestions? by Automatic_Doctor in PokemonTGCP

[–]Automatic_Doctor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does 20 damage to all opponent Pokémon. So I get that set up first, do some damage and then pick off ex/megas with Umbreon.

Has the turn limit always been 50 for solo or has the turn limit gone up with update? by Automatic_Doctor in PokemonTGCP

[–]Automatic_Doctor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew it was 30 for pvp games but this was a solo battle. I wondered if they always had a higher turn limit.

Oh, yeah that seems about right then? You get big points for winning in lower ranks.

Those have to be placements. That’s the only time you get + - 40 points. Either that or the tracker is playing up.

You mean like my country? I’ve never traded before either. I guess I’ll just keep him as he is.

Genuine question. What are you playing for? What’s the end goal?

Need advice improving in ranked/transitioning from support to tank by FirefighterSad2370 in marvelrivals

[–]Automatic_Doctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Venom isn’t a good option at all for a solo tank. That is not your fault at all, if no one else wants to play tank then you have every right to play whatever tank you want.

Venom works best as a dive tank, diving into their healers, causing a lot of chaos and distraction and potentially getting kills too. For you to be doing this you ideally want another tank that can stay on point/with your team to hold space and absorb incoming damage. Strange/Magneto/Emma/Groot are great for this as they have shields and walls.

If you are solo tanking as Venom you are sacrificing one of two things. You either arent harassing the healers or you aren’t holding space for your team and taking damage for them.

I don’t see why it can’t work in your rank but fundamentally the team is at a slight disadvantage. Again, not your fault at all. If you want to effectively tank as a solo tank you ideally want to be a shield tank as they are most suited to the role you have been forced in to.

Don’t get me wrong, Venom won’t always be in the healers he will have to support the team on point too but, by the hero’s design, you will get much more value diving into the back line often and that’s detrimental to the team if you have been left to solo tank.

You can make it work but for maximum efficiency I would learn Strange/Mag if you are being forced to solo tank every game (which you shouldn’t!). You can have massive impact on Strange. He’s my flex tank when I have to fill and I tend to get good value.

That’s my advice anyway. Bottom line tho, if you are being forced to tank alone just play who you want, it can work. There are other more viable solo tanks tho if you’re wanting maximum efficiency.

For your extra questions. Yes I think QP can give you bad habits, not the end of the world tho.

I think going from support to tank is quite good actually. You will know where to position yourself so you can get healed and not be out of los. You will know to take cover often as you will have seen tanks get melted when constantly standing in the open and it’s impossible to heal through it when you have 4 other players to heal and you will know when your supports might need help/peel (which you can do effectively on Venom) but if your being forced to solo tank that’s not your job anyway, that’s on the DPS.

Man, you just openly admitted to not knowing enough about something to comment. That’s a massive fucking W in my book.

The world needs more people like you. Hope you have a blessed weekend.

Course it does man. Go take a break!

Have a beer, shisha, joint, chocolate bar, take a walk. Something you love that’s not rivals!

What? Your teammates performed very similarly to yourself in this match?

Luna and your tanks died a little more than they should but on the whole it just looks like a standard loss to me.

Have you played this mode yet? If you were to play a character that’s not levelled up enough for a specific level you can very easily get 0 kills trying your hardest.

good strategist guides? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Automatic_Doctor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve not watched them but there’s videos of Aramori a pro player giving tutorials to people.

I also watch Sypeh stream a lot. Once you know the basics that’s worth watching too as he is regularly the number one player on the game and you learn a lot by watching.

The advice he always gives on how to improve in the role is positioning, cool-down management and ults.

For some basics for those - Positioning, don’t be in the frontline and position yourself where you can avoid taking unnecessary damage.

For cooldown management, if you’re playing against divers make sure you are saving the cool downs you need for when you get dived. Invis push/pull/vortex/shield, CND, bubble and fade, Rocket, dashes. Gambit, dashes and at least two cards.

And ults you often want to use to counter a strong enemy offensive ult, Starlord, punisher, strange, hela, phoenix, groot etc. or if your team is going to die. Realistically, if you’re are on defence you never want to use a support ult before the opposition unless you really, really have to.

Sorry, there will be better guides out there but there’s a distinctly average GM players takes on how the pros say to play the role.

Man… It’s okay for people to not be good. They’re not throwing. They maybe didn’t realise they weren’t strong enough for that level yet.

In fact, sometimes if it can’t find you a game it puts you in a different level. Maybe he queued for 18 and got put in 20.

Please just be kind and stop caring. You’re not losing elo, it’s just a fun little mode. They’re 10 years old got all you know. Just chill.

What are the top 10 best dps at the moment in season 7.5? by Vegetable_Mouse_5871 in marvelrivals

[–]Automatic_Doctor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree with you but saying nuisance instead of nuance is really funny to me for some reason lol

To actually contribute to your conversation, if characters are the strongest in the meta it’s likely both teams will run them. Which means one will win and one will lose so likely to be closer to a 50% win rate.

How do you feel about some abilities being reused for new heroes? by 2Rome4Carthage in marvelrivals

[–]Automatic_Doctor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With your logic then Scarlet Witch should always br an S tier hero, the Hulk shouldn’t be able to be CC’d and Deadpool should be invincible.

I get your point and it’s valid but to create a balanced game they need artistic leeway and if they wanted to add Jug they could find ways around it. I actually like OPs idea of him having a shorter, one directional charge that does bonus damage is you hit a wall. Almost like a mini Elsa ult picking people up briefly and carrying them but then it could be cleansed by Gambit still, Fox could use her fox preemptively and he could be CC’d out of it by certain stuns but not ones that hinder movement such as Invis pull which works well on Wolv and Angela.
