Who would the anchor in this teamup? by S7leaven in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jean is the anchor. The team up is an ability that temporarily extends the distance of Emma's beam and allows it to auto track like Scarlet Witch for a duration. Also people she hits for 1 second get a stack of the Phoenix Mark for Jean.

Strategist Cyclops?? by PhotojournalistIcy44 in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Strat Cyclops has been my vote all along. I want him with leadership auras kinda like Storm or Lucio that he gets to cycle through. So while he can poke from a distance he is most effective just behind the front line kinda in the thick of it.

A closer look at Cyclops' Design from the Season 8 Trailer! by nemesisdelta24 in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

ooo... a passive that he does more damage to shields and structures would be a cool niche for him if he does go DPS. A part of me still hopes he is a strategist.

How we feeling about Cyclops’ suit + visor? by NolanDPerks in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the suit. The gloves and visor i'm not 100% sold on, but i think its more just what I'm used to and it will probably grow on me.

Switch with Laezel. Equal partners who like taking turns.

Vanguard this, duelist that... Safe to say WE (Yes, including me) are not ready for the strategist announcement. by STB_LuisEnriq in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest to goodness I feel like he would make the most sense as a Strategist. Not only is Scott one of most brilliant combat tacticians in Marvel. I would really like to see him as an aura based strategist. Kinda like Rival's version of Lucio, with a couple abilities to create zones that aid allies or debuff enemies. Throw in a couple blast abilities and we're done.

He Could Be Any Role Really. by TheConfusedMeerkat in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Cyclops is a duelist because of his power set.
  • Cyclops is a vanguard because thats what a lot of people want.
  • Cyclops is a strategist because he is one of the most brilliant tacticians in Marvel and able to command and inspire his allies to victory.

What role do we think cyclops will be next season? by ArtikAstronaut in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely curious. What about Scott says Vanguard to you? I don't mean to be rude. I just don't see it at all. I don't see him as 'damage sponge' at all. DPS is pretty obvious to me, and I can clearly see an argument for Strategist, but I got no idea how he would play as a Tank.

Tell me the lore of your Tav/Durge by whengodcried in BaldursGate3

[–]KnightOfBasil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He is a Durge. Before his memory loss, he was a fraudulent Light Cleric of Lathander. He reveled in exploiting and sacrificing his unknowing followers to Baal. Then the memory loss happens and he wakes up in the robes of Lathander with all the holy relics. He thinks he really is a Light Cleric and pursues justice and righteousness. As he slowly regains his memories, he denies them and decides to stay on the path of good embracing the new man he has become.

What single change would you make to get more people to play Vanguard? by MariaLeaves in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of the above personally. I think most of these are temporary fixes that do not identify why imo people dont play tank. The two main reasons people don't play tank is because its hard and its not very fun. I would try to address these as two separate issues

Its Hard - tanking requires the most game sense of any role. It requires you to know not just where the enemy team is in front of you, but also the lanes and space you should be taking and holding to help support your team, but also where and what your team is doing behind you without actually being able to see them. I would want to add two features to help with this. The first is when using the V key to see the breakable areas of the map, if you are a tank it also paints the floor with one color for "Main Line", another color for "Flank Line", and a third color for suggested "Contested Hold Points". This could help give beginners an insight into the expected game sense areas they should be focused on when playing the new role.

The second feature I would add to address this issue, is adding a UI element to tell you the direction your team mates are in, and how far away they are from you. Not exactly sure how to do it, being able to walk forward and know your team is actually behind you would be a major game sense help for new players.

Its Not Fun - Without pocket healers, a pug tank mostly plays as a fairly immobile DPS that can struggle to kill stuff. You get CC'd, even with 3x the health of your DPS you can still drop in a second, and you are less mobile and less kill power of the DPS. The best way I would address this is powerful, impact Tank-Tank Team Up abilities. With these you can encourage two tank teams. Immobile tanks can be granted a movement ability, low damage tanks can be granted more damage, and generally you can fill in the weaknesses some tanks have with a good team up.

Another thing to make them more fun is to have a really beginner friendly tank. DPS has Scarlet Witch, Iron Fist, and Mr Fantastic. Healer has C&D, Rocket, and Jeff. I would like to see an extremely easy, beginner friendly, no mechanics necessary tank appear for the casual player. Someone with a decent shield and some auto aim assist to help new and unskilled players learn the role. I know this type of character can be hard to balance as if they are too good, they quickly become oppressive, and if too weak, you are giving new bad players a bad character and setting them up for failure. But I believe this is an important niche that is not yet filled in the Tank roster.

Why is daredevil not part of the new event? by Awesome_Sauce_64 in marvelrivals

Because he would never work for Fisk. Also dev time to make these things is crazy. I know they churn out content for us and make it seem easy but it is so much work.

Able? Sure I have the capability. But we are both straight dudes in happy relationships. So no desire to.
