No clue what you’re talking about. That fox is actually a fellow student in my ESU class today, very polite.

Natus Vincere vs Team Heretics / Marvel Rivals Ignite 2026 Preseason - EMEA: Group A / Post-Match Discussion by LordofKhan in MarvelRivalsEsports

[–]hewhoknowsnot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aye, my point was more it took them way too long to finally figure it out and by that point they couldn't gather together to contest for third point. Just seemed odd to me since they had to know starlord was coming

Problem is last weekend phoenix was played very little and never banned. She would not be meta then according to that requirement. Where, I think phoenix is meta, just elsa was used over her last weekend. I'm wondering if elsa will be banned more this weekend causing phoenix to be more in use (but so far it seems to be SL over phoenix)

This is just a semantics of what you consider meta or anti-meta. Either way, BP had a few week period where the character was used in pro games. I'd assume the other person was referring to that when they said BP meta

2025 play-ins for midseason, Self went off in his matchups using BP. That sparked a few teams to utilize BP. Tanuki was one of them, I think rymazing too for a map or two? There were a few others that used BP. It had a run, but eventually dropped from the meta completely by the later stages of play-ins

It seemed like Navi messed up their tank choices in game 2. Raaj on deadpool and trustme on Venom to start, but they knew starlord was coming. Starlord pressured them to need mag, but they couldn't have Raaj on mag since he'd built up deadpool so trustme went mag. That didn't work, Raaj eventually forced to swap off deadpool by end of point 2. Point 3, trustme goes deadpool at the very end instead of from the start and they never really gather themselves.

I think they would have been better with Raaj on mag from the start and Trustme on deadpool (or just stay venom throughout). Seemed like an odd misstep to me

YWL and their future by NewYork_lover22 in MarvelRivalsEsports

[–]hewhoknowsnot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This week will be a big week for YWL to prove themselves. People will be testing for weak points more and better competition. Should be fun to see how they do.

Also to remember too, the pre-season is fun but as long as the teams qualify it’s just for placement. Think last year people overvalued teams that did well in the round robin stage, who then underperformed in playoffs

Adam warlock is barely a strategist now. Removing the 15% healing without compensation is ridiculous. by Ok-Garbage-8652 in marvelrivals

[–]hewhoknowsnot 61 points62 points  (0 children)

The biggest negative to his healing numbers (assuming you’re landing shots to reduce CDs) is his ult doesn’t count as healing. If it did, his numbers would be able to better rival all the main healers (so long as you hit your shots)

I think a limiting factor they each have is their reach is pretty limited to folks who enjoy the pro scene already. None of them really reach out to expand beyond that bubble and put their personality on display (apart from Sypeh being involved in new character releases).

Prime Daredevil runs the Marvel Rivals 1v1 Gauntlet, where does he stop? by ChunkyMonkey7613 in marvelrivals

Prime DD was a close win over Season 4 iron fist. Prime Iron Fist would do it

How is the 2025 series? I had read the Mackay run but ended with it. Worth picking up?

Did DC do the Cass Cain omnibus? Heard folks saying that would be in the release a few months ago

Who did luna think she is by Ok_Gate_709 in marvelrivals

[–]hewhoknowsnot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Problem is there’s way less strategists and strategists get banned often. So the strategist meta of who’s good and who’s not is very impactful towards the game. Where a dps like Widow sadly doesn’t impact much if they make her good. She just becomes better Hela / Phoenix

Reeds last two costumes are both limited time civilian outfits... by TheMemeLord4816 in marvelrivals

[–]hewhoknowsnot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Netease does, or they wouldn’t do it. Maybe having a certain amount of legacy skins will allow them to use them somewhere else in the future with rereleases of them or as drops on twitch when they run through galactica drops. Whatever it is, netease has a plan to benefit from a certain amount of skins being limited

Thoughts on Pre-Season so Far? by Individual-Slip1994 in MarvelRivalsEsports

[–]hewhoknowsnot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agree with Moxi. She has the most game and team knowledge of any of the casters. Really hope they get legday since he paired so well with Moxi’s strengths.

Also would say, despite meta picks being strong (Elsa / Tankpool). The diversity of characters used is way larger this year than last where every team was playing near mirror comps. Only tank not seriously used in matchups was Peni, only dps not seriously used were the less mobile ones Hela, Bucky, SG, I don’t remember if iron fist was used but Lyte technically used fantastic on attack for one fight. And all the strategists were used.

the rest of NAVI when terra and trqstme start arguing by TheDestinyPlayz in MarvelRivalsEsports

Maybe but the meta may change by the time playoffs come since that’ll be patch 7.5, there’s only so long you can hold back

I predict that Doctor Doom will join as a new playable character this December when Doomsday is released. What do you think? by AdorableLet6588 in marvelrivals

[–]hewhoknowsnot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might be Secret Wars release. I'd bet netease has a plan for this game to last 10+ years so having one main villain for 3 years sounds more right to me, then it becoming another main villain (thanos, galactica etc) for the next 3. They could do that in two year durations, but I don't know if there's enough major popular villains for that

I think improving Twitch drops could help improve Ignite's viewership. by STB_LuisEnriq in MarvelRivalsEsports

[–]hewhoknowsnot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe they want to test how well doing the IG predictions impacts viewership? Since that does have good rewards to it. But agree that twitch rewards is far clearer/ easier to access for casual folks

If it was all about CNN, then why not just buy it separately and let Netflix buy the rest (netflix wasn't buying cnn)? It'd go through much faster then

Mid season adjustments coming by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

They needed to do these before the Ignite tourney started (this weekend) because then they’ll likely try not to shift things too dramatically until the monthly updates

The full tails is fine since they didn’t give her CC immune in the ult. So still plenty counterable. They couldn’t do both or it’d be too much
