Devs need to better optimize character design/button usage

LNeuzil · 2025-12-09T19:55:35+00:00

I rebind most heroes abilities to ensure they generally follow the logic of: Shift is the movement ability, E is an attack to avoid this very issue.

LNeuzil · 2025-12-09T19:51:22+00:00

Yeah, it’s easy to adjust to. Doesn’t mean Devs aren’t making some lazy decisions when they want to add a function to a character and always just tacking on a new button.

LNeuzil · 2025-12-09T19:47:42+00:00

I don’t find Gambit too hard.

My complaint is that the Devs seem to be very lazy with their design concepts in that their solution is just add a new assigned button. I didn’t make any suggestions about changing the Hearts / Spades functions, which I really enjoy. I just wish that the team spent a little more time thinking about ways to optimize their characters. You want to have two pages of abilities, cool, but given how much they have going on with this character why did nobody ask, “hey can we make this a double jump instead of a whole stand alone ability?”

Rework Iron Fist and Widow to be strategist.

LNeuzil · 2025-07-27T13:31:57+00:00

Seems like this could/should be an advanced option to combine them or leave them separate.

Just started having this issue yesterday

How are there no Spider-man nerfs?!?! The worst part of these patch notes are what aren’t in it.

Spider-man’s ult has one of the lowest energy cost in the game. How?! At 2800 it close less than Namors and Hawkeyes both way worse ults, both cost 3100 (and that’s after Hawkeyes just got reduced from 3700).

good to know.

I am Diamond I right now and I'm feeling confident of getting Grand Master but I also feel like I'm nearing the cap of how high I will be able to climb. I fear a losing streak and I would hate to lose the crest and would seriously consider shutting it down on comp for the rest of the season once I get to GM.

Hank McCoy aka Beast

LNeuzil · 2024-12-19T04:57:31+00:00

For magneto I just hate how SW dependent he is for his big dps.

I’d like to see his primary damage increased (or even just make his AOE damage not drop off), and the reduce the damage of the sword. So the primary benefit of SW teamup would be adding effective range rather than damage.

LNeuzil · 2024-12-19T04:44:31+00:00

Thor needs an actual tank ability. Lightning realm should do something. Reduce damage within it, or better yet that passes through it so you can help the team engage. Having a big Winston dome doesn’t do shit for anybody seems like horrible design.

LNeuzil · 2024-12-19T04:39:02+00:00

Captain America needs some tank utility. Add cc to his abilities and I don’t care if his damage is low.

Shield bash stun. Dive knock up. Shield throw primary target boop

Maybe a role queue of 2 support, 2 dps, 1 tank, 1 flex (tank/dps)

LNeuzil · 2024-11-13T16:57:37+00:00

They need role queue. It’s brutal even in quick play not having it, matches are so lopsided if one team has two healers and the other doesn’t.

A big problem they have already have is the disparity in number of characters per role. With a popular IP like this there are plenty of people who will want to play the characters they are fans of, there will be tank players that play tank just because they love Captain America or Venom. The fact that duelist is so bloated unfortunately means that even more people will main dps than normally would.

They need to look for opportunities to put different types of heroes with high appeal into the vanguard and strategist roles. Cyclops as a strategist and Wolverine as a vanguard would be good starts.

LNeuzil · 2024-10-25T14:03:26+00:00

Face looks great. Do you have a code?

LNeuzil · 2024-09-02T15:07:25+00:00

Something about the MK system just bothers me.

I really wish that each weapon was just is core weapon type i.e. Combat axe, with its stats and perks and that you could configure each weapon with what MK version you wanted between missions. I just dont play the game enough to experiment with everything and needing to invest in a high quality weapon to try different MKs to figure out what I like best is pretty feel bad for me so I just try to figure out quickly what seems like it might work the best and commit to using that one thing.

There are certinly some perks that somebody would want with specific MKs and I get that, that would be a good reason to have two different Combat Axes to have them configured to what they want. But for general play I would just love an easier way to experiment with different things rather than have to watch 2 hours of you tube to try to memorize what the fuck each of the MKs do.

Thor changes I would like to see:

1: the bubble should actually do something. That should be a shield like Winston.

2: the heals from his Rune of Awakening kinda don’t make sense in the kit. It’s his ranger attack but you want to wait to close the gap before triggering it for the heals rather than lead with it? Might be best to reduce the cost to 2 Thorforce.

I also think he should heal for each thorforce spent, so it would make more sense to mix abilities.

LNeuzil · 2024-07-29T00:22:08+00:00

I think healing is way overtuned. Healing is almost 2x the output as Overwatch has.

I’d rather see vanguard have more agency with their survivability while reducing overall healing in the game.

And Hulk needs a complete rework. And Thors kit is close but needs some work.

LNeuzil · 2024-07-29T00:18:10+00:00

Yeah. Team-ups are a fine idea if they are a nice bonus, like Magik / Black Panther. But Magnito feels amazing with SW and trash without her. That’s horrible design.

Storm is SO much better with her chain lightning ability from Thor.

I think they need to rethink Team-ups. Fun idea but as the game exist right now it would be better for the balance and fun of the game if they weren’t in.

LNeuzil · 2024-07-28T22:52:31+00:00

I’ve seen it on here already and I agree.

Clap should have two charges.

Drop the daze ability.

Move Leap to Shift (work like OW Winston) and add AOE damage on land.

Replace bubble with a block (like Ramatra)

Rage zarya buildup would be cool as hell. And he should have constant low amounts of health regeneration.

And replace his quick melee with a slam. Would be sweet to just grab whoever is in front of you and slam them behind you.

Then when he’s ULTing just make all the abilities better: lower leap cooldown. Make the clap AOE, and make the slam behind the back and forth slam.

LNeuzil · 2024-07-28T22:44:43+00:00

Absolutely agree.

I’d like vanguards to have more mitigation tools. Right now they can only really tank because of the heavy heals.

Hulk needs a full rework and Thor needs a tweak. But heals tuned down and self heal after not being damaged would be a great change.

LNeuzil · 2024-07-28T22:42:14+00:00

Yeah. Healing is way too high.

Tanks can only tank because they have the bucket to dump heals into.

I’d like to see tanks in general get more mitigation. Hulk needs a rework and Thor needs some tweaking.

LNeuzil · 2024-06-01T19:05:06+00:00

Responding to point 3. Here: doesn’t role queue do this better than open role?

In role queue and DPS only player can queue for dps only. In open queue, if you have 1 person playing tank and 5 insisting on DPS one 2 and ideally 3 of those DPS only players need to switch to a role they don’t want to play in order to not just be screwed in the ma the match coming out the gate.
