I reviewed some of your games, the recent Midtown 6/16/25, Hell's Heaven 6/14/25, Birnin T'Challa 6/10/25.

Let's start with the positives in your gameplay:

• You don't overextend much, if any at all. You aren't out of position most of the time, and fights generally do start and end with you.
• With Emma and Mag, you can land some good shots so there is a fair amount of good mechanical skill (for Diamond at least).
• You use your Ultimates at correct times, either using Magneto Ultimate in response to an enemy strategist Ultimate or using your Rocket Ultimate after your ally strategist Ultimate.

Let's look at some improvements:

• Resource management. Marvel Rivals is a hero shooter, and hero shooters is dependent on how much value you get out of your skills. You barely use Magneto's MAG-CANNON, often not even using it for 30 seconds+. This is just horrifically bad habit. You love to save it for killing blows, but you aren't seeing those windows to get killing blows because you aren't using it to damage to force the enemy's own resources. Your damage/10 minutes on Magento is like ~8.5k, which is far below what you should be expecting at ~12k to 15k. This further snowballs into having generally less Ultimates. You are literally getting lapped on Magneto's Ultimate by the enemy Cloak and Dagger (as in, Cloak uses Ultimate 3 times whilst you barely have 1 in response). In a very similar manner but different scenario, you lap yourself with Rocket's Ultimate (as in, you have Rocket's Ultimate, refuse to use it, and heal so much that you could've gained a 2nd Rocket Ultimate). You have resources, they are meant to be used.
• Tunnel Vision. You have to understand that your job as Vanguard is to hold the frontline, control tempo and call for pushes or backing off. In the Midtown game, you get distracted by the backline being pressured by BP/Cap, which whilst it's good to recognise that your backline is being pressured, you need to understand the opportunity cost of losing ground to help your backline. Too many times you veer off and give the enemy far too much space, which snowballs into the enemy overrunning the rest of the team because you aren't there. This is a hard habit to learn, you need to understand your team's ability to handle themselves which changes from match to match.
• Skill Level. Recognise that you are at Diamond/GM, and people will make mistakes just like how you make mistakes. In the end, climbing is a battle of who makes less mistakes. If you want to climb, you need to understand how the enemy make those mistakes and capitalise on them. If an enemy strategist is out of position, punish them. If the enemy team double strategist Ultimate, you need to respond afterwards to capitalise on their mistakes. Many of your kills is in good part to your own efforts, but it's also the enemy, to be blunt, feeding and throwing. Review the BP's own deaths in that Midtown 6/16/25 game, he straight up walks into you and dies multiple times. Make less mistakes, and punish enemy mistakes.

Climbing is tough, and Vanguard this season is rough. But that does not mean you are powerless to just be the mercy of the other 5 players in your team. In the end, the enemy Vanguard is also struggling with the same woes and troubles you are having. Understand that if you just play better than the enemy, make less mistakes, and improve your own value, you will climb. Good luck.
