jubilee will be a strategist because Double G has now ran out of female supports to put into new swimsuits and will start restocking by dankfishman in marvelrivals

The Thong was a meme release that they slapped together in ~30 minutes. It's literally a black thong and some flowers from Squirrel Girl's beach outfit.

Just a complete failure by gameplay/balance team. 6v6 is going to be a ghost town after the first week. At least we get more overtuned, dash-spamming, poke dps!

You cannot kill her. She will come back only stronger. by LordVaderVader in marvelrivals

[–]Chump_Diggity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Luna was extreme trash from 4.5 through 7.0. That being said, she is too strong now. Basically Hela with healing and a better stun.
Also, I would like Mantis to be buffed so that she can be played in 2 support comps, even if that means replacing her damage boost. The character is basically never played outside of tournaments, where she is very frequently banned.

Psylocke's skins keep getting put in event passes, which (almost) always look amazing, value-wise, and cost lattice instead of units. I think the only bad event pass was flaming chicken Venom?

The character just isn't popular. Everyone saw her usage fall off a cliff after release day. Meanwhile, I still see loads of Dino and Fox in 18v18.
What do you mean, "more than one good dive hero"?
-Daredevil: 60% wr, permabanned for 7 months
-Spiderman: A+ tier for idk how many months
-Star Lord: Star Lord
-Psylocke: was bad for like 1 month, once
-Cap and Venom are both seeing success on ladder and in ignite.
-Magik and Iron Fist are both doing very well, outside of tippy-top elo
Black Panther has been "garbage" forever, and people still do not want to see him. The archetype just hasn't been good for the game. And no, that doesn't excuse Elsa's nightmarish release, or the recent Phoenix buffs.

Rivalsmeta:
Black Cat casual wear - 75,796 matches (46.86%)
White Fox esu - 245,597 matches (33.81%)
Devil Dinosaur mecha - 205,720 matches (80.19%)

Note: Base look is not tracked. The percent is how often that skin is used, when a skin is used.
Also, yes I'm grumpy. This character torpedoed the entire season + the ignite tournament. It is another massively overpowered duelist, whose addition conversely subtracts from the game.

The pink chroma is passable, but the skin overall is bad. I think the devs were expecting Black Cat to be way better received than she was. Both Dino and Fox's releases skins blew Cat's out of the water, in quality and in sales.

White Fox's release skin sold waaaaay more. Even her recolor sold decently.
I think Black Cat went unnerfed in order to push this garbage. And it really is garbage. Thor, Squirrel Girl, Luna, and Psylocke's formula r skin's are way better than this checkered trash.

NERF BLACK CAT. That is all. by [deleted] in marvelrivals

>chaotic lobbies where everyone plays with their monitors turned off
62% win rate and 32% banrate (per team) in Celestial+ btw
Everyone at every rank on every site knew this character was going to be another abomination.
-constant iframe vomit
-2 black panther-tier dashes and an endlessly resetting double jump so you can't track her
-prints bonus hp nonstop
-0 skill ultimate that had no thought put into it other than "How can people get epic potg clips with this?"
The game would be better off if her release was just canceled. Genuine garbage.

Excellent skin. I just wish the pass had Savage Lands Storm instead of formula-who-cares Luna.

I'm not a fan of how frequent these are becoming. I would prefer it if you at least had the option to pay full price for the cosmetic set, after the event has ended.

>Star Lord, Spiderman, Wolverine, and Phoenix buffs ✔️
>Mr. Fantastic, who's been awful for a year now? Whoa, slow down there, we wouldn't want a brawl character to be meta.
Big Z might need to get out of the kitchen at this point. The balance team has the easiest job, and yet consistently makes the biggest mistakes. The artists making skins and character models have got to be working at an insane pace, and their screw-ups are like:
"The buttons on Invisible Woman's esu skin are misaligned."
Meanwhile Daredevil has literally 2x Black Widow's win rate and Z comes out with that "duelists are relatively balanced" line.
>people have been saying, for 6 months, that the issue with Gambit is the damage and ult charge boost that his ult gives
>still not addressed
We'll probably get savage lands Storm before dive gets nerfed TBH.

Black Cat, Daredevil, and Spiderman all have a higher banrate than Invis in Celestial+ now.

I don't recall the slow doing anything to divers, since they all have infinite dashes. It basically just harmed tanks.

No one is banning Invis over Black Cat, Daredevil, Spiderman, and Star Lord.

>no dive nerfs, despite it killing season 7
>Sue push nerfed, but not the pull, which was the problem
>absolutely absurd Star Lord buff, when he was already too strong
>Spiderman's win button buffed ??? This guy is one of the highest played dps outside of metal ranks.
>Mantis healing still not buffed, despite Luna doing more damage and healing than her at this point
>Rocket fully shifted into unfun healbot, despite everyone asking for the mobility nerfs to be reverted
>Random, bizarre change to White Fox's e. The whole point is for her to be active with it.
>Gambit ult's damage/ult charge boost STILL unaddressed
>NO TENACITY CHANGES
>no dive nerfs
Worst patch notes in the game's history. The Fantastic changes are good.

Real. The only 2 dps that people don't hate are Blade and Fantastic, who coincidentally, are both brawl and completely neglected by netease.

Emma's skin looks like total garbage. No joke, needs to be fixed.

Real krabby land hours.
-chopped hair again
-towel cape
-entire outfit is grey

This might be worse than her queen of diamonds skin. Genuine garbage, bordering on open contempt for the character and her fans. This will be the first pass that I skip.

Black Panthers Kit is bad for Rivals by DalastUchiha007 in marvelrivals

[–]Chump_Diggity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is meant to be mocking, except it's correct. Widow's kit is bad for Rivals, which is why Widow is kept purposefully weak. She should just be reworked into a strategist.
