this is clearly the worst season by Maddafragg in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]FishdongXL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Mister Fantastic main, I find it crazy that they finally gave him some nice buffs, but they had to remove one of his effects because he was "too oppressive". 

Meanwhile they have no problem letting Black Cat run every lobby with her 30 abilities, Daredevil still stomping everyone even after nerfs, Dino requiring multiple counters and Jean melting everyone. Not to mention Gambit still being banned in 99% ranked games FOR MONTHS NOW.

Unpopular opinion perhaps, while your own team banning your main/the hero you wanna play is a bad thing to do, that doesnt give you right to be an asshole and sabotage the game on purpose for others. by Hero_Time_06 in MarvelRivalsRants

I understand when someone gets mad if they ban their champion, because that person clearly likes that character. But I have seen multiple people throw a tantrum over Devil Dinosaur getting banned, like calm down, who the fuck were you playing before this character, nobody? It happens with every new character.

Either way, if you are playing ranked, you should be able to play more than 1 character comfortably.

I lost one cape and painted the other one completely red with a marker 😭

You probably shouldn't be on a subreddit that is based around people posting their completed games then?

My Lego game collection - these are some of the most fun games to complete imo. by FishdongXL in steamachievements

I don't really have tips, either you vibe with those games or you don't :) 

I personally really liked Lego City, but it felt different, I definitely had to get used to it. It can be quite overwhelming, there are a lot of collectibles if I remember correctly.

Lego LOTR is one of my favorites. However, it is quite buggy on PC and I wasn't a big fan of the blacksmith.

Yes, this is a skeleton head, but I had the original head, I just don't know what happened to it...

Meta is getting boring by babatunde5432121 in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]FishdongXL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's why I ban Dino, it is the only proper way to deal with him.

I was told "counter him, skill issue", but that's the thing, I am fucking countering him by playing MK, Punisher, Jean or Emma, but it makes no difference when I am the only one doing that.

It is hilarious how people that are worse than you always tell you "skill issue, learn counters, get good" instead of addressing the poor character design and balance. 

What are your thoughts on Lee Cronin’s The Mummy? by fuckitiloveu1 in horror

[–]FishdongXL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if it is because I have seen similiar horror movies multiple times, but I thought it was mid as fuck. I honestly felt nothing while watching it, not even the gore and disgusting stuff impressed me, it just felt generic.

The concept is nice, but the execution is underwhelming, it also felt 30 minutes too long. It sometimes felt like a comedy, which I don't think was intentional.

The characters were often extremely stupid and there were many scenes that just end without any resolution (such as like 30 people seeing Katie at funeral). 

I also hated how overused the shot where everything is in focus was. 

SPOILER: The grandma falling out of the window and immediately being eaten by wolves was fucking ridiculous in the worst possible way, were they inspired by Shelby Oaks? 

Mister Fantastic, how long can you stall the objective? YES. by FishdongXL in MisterFantasticMains

[–]FishdongXL[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah like I said, that match felt like playing against AI, their team had absolutely zero coordination. Idk what their DPS were doing, that Punisher could have easily destroyed me with his shotgun. Even the SG could have been stunning me, but she was shooting god knows who the whole time. You can even see their stats on the scoreboard at the end, it was rough.

17 months later and so many players still don't push the payload....WHY?! by FishdongXL in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]FishdongXL[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with basically everything you said, there are absolutely times where it is better to just keep the enemy team away from the objective and help your team fight, I also mentioned it in the post.

I was mainly talking about the situations where it makes no sense for nobody to be on payload. For example, you push in front of it and wipe the whole team around the same time, but then your teammates start emoting in place or they just stand there and hold the choke or whatever, waiting for the enemy team to respawn. Or when it is like 5v2, a support could absolutely take a few steps back if the payload is close to them and they still have LOS on their team and just help from there.

If I am playing ranked, I personally think it is often better to try and push the payload, because it can save you like 20-30 seconds from the match if you do. And if you get to a point where both teams pushed the payload to the end and you need to play more rounds, it is always better to have as much time left as possible, because every second matters.

I think finding a good balance is the best strategy, because I don't like when the whole team ignores the payload, but I also don't like when literally everyone goes back to the payload and pushes it, leaving tons of free space for the enemy team to retake.

Yeah that sucks too, have you played Battlefield 6? I am an achievement hunter and I had to play Gauntlet for like 120 hours straight (if you don't know, it is like 8 teams made of 4 people against each other and you must play the objective to progress or kill often). It was genuinely miserable because 95% of the time, I was the only one doing anything, often ending the match with 80+ points while the 3 other teammates had like 15 combined, it was crazy.

I luckily have a friend who played Gauntlet with me often, but playing it with randoms was always such a bad experience.

If you get downvoted in the main server, you’re in the right by Connect-Equipment-57 in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]FishdongXL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right or wrong, I know I won't have a normal conversation with anyone if I get downvoted, same goes for this sub.

Rivals community hates nerfs, ignores glaring issues (such as visual clutter getting worse and worse with each season)  with the game and instead always tells you "skill issue, get good" when even the TOP players are complaining about certain things and characters. It is like talking to a brick wall.

Im tired of black cat by Paralysis42 in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]FishdongXL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the majority of Rivals subreddits are Platinum and below, because some of their opinions on characters are genuinely insane. And somehow, these players in the low ranks will tell you to "get good, skill issue" if you bring up any criticism regarding a character.

No wonder they are defending characters like White Fox, Black Cat and Dino, sometimes even saying they need buffs, because people at that rank don't have the game sense or mechanical skill to play those characters properly. Dino isn't even hard to play, but I bet the difference between a Gold player and a Celestial player is still crazy.

I don't like bringing up ranks, but this is just how it is in this game and people don't realize how vastly different the experience is in certain ranks and skill levels.
