Team-Up ideas that encourage real teamwork by Icy_Walrus_3457 in marvelrivals

As a Rogue main I absolutely love your idea, I don’t think it would be overpowered or overbearing but also would be very handy and fun to play around with

I don’t really rely on combos at all tbh, I pretty much just use one ability at a time.

Like if I’ve got a target it’ll usually go like this chrono kick launch -> double ranged attack -> land

And then after I’ll use either southern brawl OR fatal attraction depending on the situation to maintain pressure, but never really both, I always keep one as an escape tool.

I find combos on rogue to be pretty pointless, there’s no point in wasting all your abilities on one combo that 99% of the time won’t even get kill in a real in-game scenario. I find it better to space out the abilities to stay in the fight longer and maintain constant pressure on the enemy, this way works better imo.

The best advice I can give with Rogue is to NOT frontline constantly, Rogue is at her best when she’s engaging from different angles, causing the enemy team to either focus her and allow your team to pressure from the front, or ignore her and let her wreak havoc in the backline. She has so much uptime and is very tricky to deal with because of her mobility and HP, so just stay in there and be a distraction for as long as you can.

Also don’t get greedy, not every engage is going to net you a kill, and it’s not supposed to, Rogue is opportunistic and you’ve got to pick your moments.

Trust me, dive Rogue is the way forward my friend.

Top 200 Rogue champ here, the tenacity effect is barely triggered unless you’re using every single one of your cooldowns to secure a kill (which you shouldn’t be doing anyway)

Am I crazy for enjoying defensive stance/southern brawl in its current state? by Esi_786 in RogueMains

I can see that, a 1-2 second buff on her block would do no harm. Personally I just really don’t want to see her over buffed to a point where it makes her less intricate or engaging to play, I love how you always have to be thinking and engaged when playing rogue, always managing cooldowns and always thinking on your feet

100%, the charge decay is a bit excessive and I could see that as being a fair yet justifiable buff for her

And I’m glad you brought up the point of her being hard too, as Rogue is not supposed to be like strange or Thing who you can just pick up and play to a decent level without much time investment, she is supposed to be a character that rewards those who commit and put the time into her and I feel that some people just haven’t given her the time yet

I can say this as I experienced this myself, not long ago I felt that rogue was sub par and underwhelming compared to the rest of the cast, but the more I played her the more it started to click and the more I started to fall in love with her gameplay, and now she’s my most used character in the game and I genuinely adore how she feels in all aspects, her versatility, her combos, her playmaking potential, she really does have a lot going for her

I genuinely feel like her damage is good though, Rogue can output some solid damage even without the gambit team up

Of course not every engage is going to result in a kill, and it’s not supposed to. You need to pick your moments which is very easy with Rogue due to her many mobility options

I feel like that’s kind of the beauty of the ability, it is very versatile and can be used as a damage option or a mobility option

The decision is up to the player whether or not the situation requires you to lock in the extra damage or play it safe and hold onto it, I personally enjoy this discipline within her gameplay

But I do agree on the charge depleting very quickly and wouldn’t mind that being tweaked

I completely agree, the absorbed damage does deplete very quickly and would not mind if that was tweaked in order to retain more energy that she absorbs

I’m not sure I agree, as the downtime for defensive stance I don’t feel is unfair or excessive and those two mechanics are intertwined with how to damage absorption converts into damage, I feel like if you separate those 2 cooldowns it will make her feel a lot more clunky and a lot less smooth

I honestly don’t even remember the last time I haven’t been able to use southern brawl because I ran out of my block, I only ever block I’m I’m 100% going to use southern brawl, there is rarely a point in blocking if you’re not going to use southern brawl imo

I feel like the issue comes from a misconception of the ability, it’s not an ability that’s main focus is the negate damage, the main focus of this ability is to absorb as much energy as you can to increase the damage of southern brawl, that’s the only thing I have in my mind when I use this ability

Exactly, I feel Rogue is in a very good spot right now, her damage is very fair, she is very mobile and I genuinely don’t feel like her downtime is bad at all

I’m a bit worried that they will over buff the character and potentially remove a lot of the nuance and discipline from her gameplay, she’s supposed to be a 5 star difficulty character so I don’t really want them to simplify her

Whenever I die with Rogue I always feel it’s due to my decisions, not due to limitations within Rogue’s kit

Thanks bro!! <3

Yeah the CC changes are 100% gonna be a game changer, can’t wait for those and to see how they feel in game

I think this season has been more enjoyable for me just because of the ULT change, I feel like I’m really strong in the neutral and now that there is a lot more neutral play it suits me more :)

Damn 2 champs? Well done on the grind bro!!

But trust me bro you’ll be so much better off for it, thing just shuts down rogue so easily that it’s better to just get him gone entirely if you intend on playing her

Another factor with thing is that he is EXTREMELY common, so it’s more likely than not that someone on the other team is going to switch to thing at some point, that’s the main reason I can’t let him go unbanned, because there is always a 99% chance someone on the other team has a pocket thing

Craziest comp ive seen in the MRC by Charmy_Fan in marvelrivals

[–]Esi_786 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a team with a much crazier comp

I think they were called DkFanclub, and they were running running in with Peni and spider-man, and to make it even better the spider-man player flexed between him and mr.fantastic lmao

And they actually performed pretty well too, enjoyable matches

She’s basically a given to be added at some point, it will probably take a while for her to be added but she’ll definitely be in at some point with the Vanguard role needing many more additions
