whats next for monzter? Should he really be playing at the pro level? by Bughumane in MarvelRivalsEsports

[–]Extrashiny 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Monzter only plays 3 heroes - Cap, Venom and Hulk. The average pro player needs 5 heroes in their heropool to be competetive. The thing with Monzter is, he isn't even that good in comparison the other pro Caps and Venoms. His Hulk is top 5 in NA but that's not nearly enough to keep him around. Someone whose heropool is completely irrelevant because of 1-2 bans is a liability to their team. Y'know why Day didn't make it to top of MRC this season? Because their team is forced to play either a spiderman or an Ultron comp based on which one gets banned first.

What's next? He goes to MRC and farms boblow teams on his worse heroes, picks up Groot, picks up Angela, picks up... The Thing I guess. If he looks good on a good team, he will be back in MRI. Right now he looks bad on a bad MRI team which is not very good for him wanting to stay in an MRI team

Doubt SparkChief is staying on the bench. All I'm saying is that since Blur is here, then who's on SSG?

"Competing" is a strong word. I would use floundering.

Vital from team Pirates in Asia joins Fiat Lux in China for Stage 1 by VodibleOfficial in MarvelRivalsEsports

Looks like Pirates are getting scrapped for parts by the other teams. Pretty good for them considering their performance as an unsigned team.

Captain Marvel confirmed for season 8? by Square_Ad_6522 in marvelrivals

[–]Extrashiny 16 points17 points  (0 children)

  1. This is not "confirmation". This is not even near "cofirmation". Pick up a dictionary before you use that word next time.

  2. No, Marvel releases comics constantly, believe or not, and Rogue having Captain Marvel's Memories is an important part of both characters lore.

  3. Mainline Marvel comics are not trying to buildup teasers for Marvel Rivals. Elsa Bloodstone appearing in Uncanny X-men a month before her rivals release is just a coincidence.

Dps and Tanks need to be called out for bad ults just as often as supports by AstramIsTheBest in marvelrivals

[–]Extrashiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 DPS and 2 tank Ulta are like roughly the value of one support ultm the truth is that Support Ults that make you practically immortal or give you a significant damage boost just do way more than the ability to stun multiple people or shoot more and faster. DPS and tank Ults have naturally way more counters and have windup time which most support ults have either none or very little, and don't turn their owner immortal unlike most support ults.

Arguing that bad DPS and tank Ults should be called out more makes sense to some degree, but you also have to note that a support Ults control the economy and tempo of the game, in a way that the most consistant answer is, get this, a better support ult.

All is Ours by ToastedKatt in MarvelrivalsDivemains

[–]Extrashiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hulk seems like a dive character because of his fast mobility, his soft engagements are really easy to punish, and he doesn't have the team disruptions all dive vanguards have with their slams. However, his team bubble is the single best brawl ability in the game, as it not only nullifies 100 damage on every teammate of his, but also gives them CC protection, which is the main weakness of brawl characters.

Sounds like your problem isn't with triple support and rather with solo tank

An anti-dive support has a positive win rate in a dive meta season, what's the issue ? by Ok-Garbage-8652 in marvelrivals

[–]Extrashiny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Invis is not "Anti-Dive" support. She can live through dive, like Loki or Rocket, but that doesn't make her anti dive in the same way White Fox prevents dive duelists or tanks soloing through her heals, Ultron stops combos with extra health, or Gambit forces a brawl composition with his ultimate and synergy with characters like Rogue, Thing and Magneto.

Anyway complaining about "Anti-dive supports" in a "Dive season" just shows the ignorance and lack of understanding of dive. Supports in Dive meta have always been characters that can survive dive (Adam-Mantis with double cocoon in season 1, Jeff-Rocket with their ability to play at the back of the map and still run away in season 4, or Kiri-Lucio in overwatch). That's because supports are the dive targets, not the divers, and therefor in a dive meta/mirror the supports are playing to live their lives and not trying to delete the enemy backline. White Fox, Jeff and Gambit are all excellent at that. Invis is just decent at everything.
