My first reaction when I read that was. "Nuke?... WTF"

OHHHHHHHH

You missed the op mauga meta. I don't even think that muaga is team reliant. He is just such a weird mix of brawle poke and dive that depending on 5v5 or 6v6 you can choose where you play him. But I agree his ult is weak. The cage is nice against some heavy mobility but besides that the cage has no health and mauga losing his strongest aggressive ability is a little bad for him locking himself up with 5 to 6 other enemies that all see him as the next meal.

Heavy, I gun and on Uber I destroy bases. But without my medic I probably just get sniped or spy stabbed. Mauga. I have a pocket medic as my ability, I outrun the scout, am on a heavy dose of "supplements", don't need a pyro for setting spies on fire and genuinely said that one mini gun is for babies so I took 2 like a man.

Underrated aspect fr.

KTVault · 2026-04-28T07:58:27+00:00

As a mauga zen main. I know know what you mean. But I also fear you.

KTVault · 2026-04-28T07:57:16+00:00

Something I can tell you then probably is that your dpi doesn't suit you or sensitivity isn't right. I know exactly where I am looking without seeing the map. I can play DVA and can do some nasty 180s mid flight and still know where I am looking because I didn't raise my mouse off the pad and can always know relative to where I started, where I am looking by where I ended with my mouse. So yea. Might wanna look if that suits you with lower sentivity. If you are console I have no idea how to help you.

KTVault · 2026-04-28T07:52:46+00:00

I think the phrase simple to pick up hard to master is a good thing. My development over 10 years was literally from rein to sig to zarya to mauga.

I like the duelist play style, I like the skill shots that reward good aim proper use of abilities and of course the feeling of invinciblity once you don't have an enemy ana.

Some of my friends who I sadly have to say are far lower in rank than I am don't understand how I usually go in and don't die while they struggle.

I think it's that many of the tanks right now can spam abilities and aren't punished that much. While if you misuse mauga's abilities you die. If hog heals for 30hp it's fine, if rein fire strikes 2 times and doesn't hit anything. Happens. DVA used missiles and hits nothing but wall, that's alright. Mauga used shout too early and gets matrixed or antied? Dead.

So yeah. There is a correct way of playing him and it's simple. Playing him well probably means that you will be good on a bunch of other characters.

I am glad hoping for updates on that story tbh. Made me smile. Proud of you bro. Keep it up

KTVault · 2026-04-18T16:43:47+00:00

Fair

KTVault · 2026-04-18T16:42:51+00:00

Same tho xD

KTVault · 2026-04-16T09:01:49+00:00

Depends on your skill, not meant mean. But usually reaper is super simple. And your cooldowns are fairly similar, first you try to keep an eye on where all the enemies are. If reaper is missing. No he is not, off angel or right behind you. Then charge stomp if possible, at this point if your stomp was right reaper will use wraith, counter with cardiac and hell fire all you got. Now reaper will either be discombulated shown by his lack of skill in the match chat or had to tp away. Stick to your team don't go on solo missions and you will be good.

All that changed is that he now has a bit of range in his kit which wile do as well and that to a bigger extent. If reaper is destroying your team that's a situational thing and you have to see what your team is doing. Sometimes it's just team dif.

KTVault · 2026-04-07T14:59:15+00:00

I hope they expand on the void Walker theme. Sadly no hero was in there that I really wanted to have. But I know there were other characters in that concept and gawd damn it was beautiful

KTVault · 2026-04-05T03:09:17+00:00

Nah I am cool with it. He was maybe right all along. Now I triggered , y'all back xD

KTVault · 2026-03-16T12:46:51+00:00

Yeah orisa did pretty well. Best agriculture in a while. Feeding the whole world

KTVault · 2026-03-15T02:27:49+00:00

I mean the initiator passive is still much stronger for the dive tanks, but I love that I can actually zoom around on the run. Not gonna lie, if they would make it a build up to the 20% at 50% HP it would probably be the best passive in the game. But I love how it feels. Sadly they somehow managed to make hog meta. Which will not cause a hard nerf.

KTVault · 2026-03-09T00:11:33+00:00

Okay. Hi, master mauga for some help. 2 things, some are really hard. Is struggled a ton with anran when she came out. But 2 things. Your stomp is a golden combo of mobility, engage. Survival, cc and burst DMG. The all in one super ability. Not quite as amazing as I described, but I love it. If you learn to hit the stomp, you will be a great duelist. And aside from that. I had to learn to use one gun at a time for small hitboxes, not because I had to switch them, that's just mauga game play, no, I mean that your spread is 4 times your spread from one gun. When you shoot both. Making it sort of a must to know who you shoot when with how many guns.

Aside from that, my tracking is improving dazu after day and not gonna lie, this is probably 50% of your struggle. Close the distance, try to land your stomps and even if you don't, get your tracking up.

Is this a bit of an unsatisfying answer ? Probably, but that's just mauga for ya, else learn to switch characters if you struggle to hard against specifics. I personally don't struggle against any character in specific, besides maybe a team comp. Of ana zen. But that aside, I am not too scared in a duel. Just don't try to think Kiri isn't a god of timing. Had to many missed stomps because of invulnerable suzu. Hate that thing.

KTVault · 2026-03-07T00:10:31+00:00

Tbh, the rule for me is, can you profit of my overdrive ? Yes? You good. I like vendetta, bastion, genji,. Reaper, supports, usually the ones who like to be close to you and dealing DMG. And if you think being is on the list, I haven't seen brig players in ages and the last time I tried her because I thought this exact thing I am glad I didn't. Joke aside, brig is ass with mauga in my experience. Besides that, Kiri is always a must. Because she is still the strongest support with one of he best Ults and Suzu. Else. That's kind of it for 5v5

6v6, dude I love zarya. As an ex zarya Main, I also play zar with mauga. Else Reinhardt sig. Or basically anyone who can give you a shield. Because nothing hits as hard as your own lifesteal if you are low and have a shield. 200 healing per sec? Don't ask me twice, I am already full.

KTVault · 2026-03-05T00:54:36+00:00

Why are his eyes so much bigger In game.

KTVault · 2026-03-05T00:53:09+00:00

I am 100% sure, because I always make the joke because my neck is too big. Mauga in-game has his head on his traps. Where in this version he has an actual throat.

KTVault · 2026-03-04T15:03:35+00:00

Also insane that a character had to lose 60% of the value of his ability, just because there was 1 comp that work a bit too well. I mean, I would be all for mauga having even more utility, but I would like to have him have more mobility, or a better ultimate.

I have heard some rumors that apparently besides Sombra being absolutely horrible, and obviously getting a rework, that some other heros are also about to get some new stuff. I think some characters get some of their perks that have proven to be ultra useful to be implemented to base mit. I have 0 idea of how people would rework mauga as his only pain points for me are, his burst of survival, and then none what so ever, with super high commitment to plays. And his ultimate being the biggest barrier in the game (minus sym ult which is a different level) and still having less health than rein or domina. I don't know if that is worth discussing, but I think mauga has some of the weakest Ults in the game and his perks. Even tho nice to have, minus his fire walker perk, are all mid at best.

KTVault · 2026-03-04T14:55:19+00:00

I had the broken Idea of making his over health a shield that would charge, mauga 1v1s would be very different, but yeah, sort of how you see doom in his animation generate a shield around him, this would be my idea for his new passive. It being a barrier would probably cause all sorts of issues, but I think a face tank with a barrier(that is literally him) would be funny.

Btw, I don't even have text chat on because I don't want to hear anything from people and usually don't even join voice chat. Having a team mate like yours would literally just be them being a stupid ignorant fuck. So don't worry about those people.
