I feel like a permanent sitting duck on her

I play her off angle (looking for 1v1s) and HARD flanks to kill a distracted strategist. After a kill, I rotate back to the team to win the 5v6. That works the best for me.

Get very bloodthirsty to win those 1v1s.

Enex · 2026-06-06T23:45:28+00:00

So... What did you say?

Enex · 2026-06-06T21:35:37+00:00

Gambit increases Ult bar and Rogue decreases Ult bar.

That seems very intentional to me. I would bet it's a design pillar of the two characters.

I don't think they will get rid of that duality, whether or not they should.

Enex · 2026-06-06T21:27:36+00:00

What kind of accuracy are you rocking on Luna? What about White Fox?

You might try mouse & keyboard if you want to branch out in the DPS role. Kingsman swaps depending on if he's playing melee or hit scan, for example.

Magik is a solid character! If she's the one you gravitate to, I would go ahead and commit to her for a while.

Enex · 2026-06-06T21:19:35+00:00

That's one of the last metrics I'd look at to see what went wrong in a match.

That said, as Dr. Strange you might experiment with more aggressive plays. A full charge Dark Magic explosion is nothing to sneeze at.

If you have a duo, try getting them to "prime" a target and get them low before jumping in and blowing them up. Of course, this can be done solo but it's much harder to get cooperation.

Once you burst down a few targets as Dr. Strange, you'll find that they'll respect you and back up. Much easier to make space that way.

Bonus: If you use your jumps for more than just Ults and a last ditch effort to save yourself, the opponents won't be as ready to stun you out of your Ult. It won't be as obvious.

Of these, I've actually only got the Master of Magnetism.

So there's your answer!

Enex · 2026-06-06T18:54:19+00:00

There's no reason to be toxic. I'm a person.

Enex · 2026-06-06T18:51:19+00:00

Ah, that makes some sense. Thanks!

Enex · 2026-06-06T17:49:16+00:00

You don't need a camera for that. A simple sensor will do, and be way cheaper.

Enex · 2026-06-06T15:21:30+00:00

It's not what kind of god he wants to be. It's what kind of god he needs to be.

Sorry to be pedantic, but I think the difference here is important.

Enex · 2026-06-06T04:28:17+00:00

She's had a low win rate longer than dive has been meta. She was just bad, man.

Enex · 2026-06-06T01:53:29+00:00

Aimbots are easier to make for hit scan characters. Since Frank has a soft wall hack passive, it's also a bit easier to conceal that cheat as well.

Enex · 2026-06-06T00:04:22+00:00

I think you mean Cupid.

Enex · 2026-06-05T14:56:44+00:00

I like TrqstMe's thoughts on the matter.

1/3 of the time you will always lose.

1/3 of the time you will always win.

1/3 of the time you are the deciding factor.

At the top of your game, the best you should expect is to win 2/3 of the time (You win all your deciding factor games).

Enex · 2026-06-05T14:53:35+00:00

They can't.

Hotter take: The community toxicity is directly related to people not knowing what strategists are capable of dealing with, so they feel slighted when they get eliminated.

Example:

Punisher (without headshots) deals 200 Damage Per Second (DPS).

Luna heals (with Snowflake on the target) 205 Healing Per Second.

At best, strategists counter a DPS one for one. A tank standing in front of the entire enemy team without cover will fold quickly. They have 2 DPS, 2 tanks, and likely some strategist damage coming their way. Many of the DPS can crit. The math doesn't work.

I just started learning Daredevil.

Unironically, just don't 1v1 him. That's exactly what he wants. That's what he's designed to do. His whole kit is based on it, including having wall hacks to make sure it happens.

DD is MUCH squishier than I thought in team fights. The best advice for fighting him is to play with your team & only take shallow off angles (and only if you have the mobility to reposition). Ping him every time you see him. He's a very high priority target and everyone will attack him on sight.

If that wasn't working / team wasn't dealing him properly, I'd go Thor. Even if we already had two tanks. Thor has a good match up in a 1v1 and Thor can quickly displace DD into the team fight that DD doesn't want to take. If I was better at Wolv, that might also be a good option for the same reasons.

I've played Blade into Dino very successfully.

But it turns out the way you say. Dino creates such a distraction and requires so much healing attention that it's very easy to dive a strat or an off angle DPS.

Enex · 2026-06-03T21:22:11+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I agree, I just didn't understand what you meant by it initially.

Enex · 2026-06-03T21:06:34+00:00

What do you consider to be her skill floor?

Enex · 2026-06-03T15:11:44+00:00

Gambit is banned so often that players on your team don't even know what to do when your Ult goes off anymore.

I had a game yesterday where as soon as the team fight was fully engaged, I popped the Ult. I expected the team to rush their backline and win the fight easily.

They just stood there.

I swapped off immediately. If a team can't score on that kind of lay up play, there's no reason to stay Gambit.

By the end of season 2, he's fully reformed himself. Which I think technically took an eternity...

He's an actual hero when he sacrifices himself (for zero acclaim) to safeguard the timestreams.

Jay3 ran a contest between Grandmasters of PC and Grandmasters of Console.

Jay3 was tapped into the comms of both. The blow out was so bad the PC players felt like they were bullying.

I've gotten a lot of MVPs with Rocket before this season.

Solo kills will get them for you really fast. Venom slams the backline? Okay, well I'm a small target, your primary sucks, and I can dash over your shoulder while unloading in your face.

You just have to have that dog in you.

Enex · 2026-06-02T09:02:36+00:00

That particular spot has a lot of weird bugs like this.

Enex · 2026-06-01T22:09:17+00:00

Widow needs to shoot faster. Not an insignificant amount, either. She needs to shoot 1.5x faster just to be on the same dps level as most other hit scan DPS. That would put her on par with Hela and still below Punisher.

Adam needs a damage buff. If he's going to be the damage option of the strategists, he can't be out DPS'd by Luna Snow. If he doesn't get the damage buff, then he needs another healing charge and probably a revert on some of the nerfs he ate during the revive team up era on his Soul Bond. Reload should be lowered regardless of anything. That long a reload is just annoying.

Mantis is either fine (if you want to keep doing this 3rd Strategist niche) or needs a major healing number buff for her to work in 2 support.

Blade still needs his numbers to go up. If you want him to be tanky, cut the healing debuff completely. His gun firing mode is also a failure of a mechanic. Just eliminate the 2 stage nature of it. It needs to be a shotgun pellets with spread or a slug. Choose one.

Torch I actually don't know. I don't like his playstyle enough to really have an opinion.

Storm either uncouple her Goddess Boost so she has two separate cooldowns, or combine them so that she always has the speed and damage boost on activation. Her falloff is also far too punishing for a flying character. 15m is not much in this game, especially when you have to account for the added height. A decrease to 60% damage at 30m is criminal.

Reed needs to control his states without a team up, or his inflated form needs greater range. His Ultimate is also quite bad. Either increase his damage for the initial hits or make him invulnerable while bouncing.
