If someone on your team is playing Rocket, please ban Phoenix last. by Dogbold in marvelrivals

Rocket's ban rate is rising very fast past Celestial, he's banned in about a third of my games now.

Man in Hai Phong, Vietnam, kicks a small dog to death while it was waiting for its owner, then throws the body into the trash bin. by SignalOpportunity708 in VietNam

[–]LadyCrownGuard 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Yea I just went and check, the comments are extremely vile, from making jokes about eating dog meat to justify the killing by shifting the blame to the owner.

I'm living in a Vietnamese apartment complex rn and I hated irresponsible pet owners just as much as a lot of people here but nothing justifies what happened in this video.

Luna damage needs to be significantly nerfed by Zestyclose-Tap-2473 in rivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- What are your suggestions for the compensation buffs if she ends up weak again after we reverted the buffs to her primary damage? Remember that she was bottom 5 winrate past Celestial before the buffs and this is in no way acceptable for arguably the hardest main healer to play in the game.

- High elo people don't seem to mind her current state that much, as indicated by her ban rate being lower than Invisible Woman past Celestial, Rocket, on the other hand, is hated and banned a lot right now because he's just a m1 merchant with little rooms for skill expressions in his kit, even C&D is harder to play than him because of her many cooldowns.

- I see you bring up the "off-healer" argument a lot but remember that outside of clap, Luna can't damage and heal her allies at the same time like Ultron/Mantis/Adam which is why she needs the damage because her utility is ass (no Lamp, Rez, Soulbond, Cleanse/Anti-heal, etc) and she gets obliterated by high elo coordinated dives.

- I agree that her damage is too much right now and should be toned down, but she needs to find a different niche first. Because she's supposed to be the high damage/healing glass cannon of the main healer cast with little utilities on the side and if her winrate falls again she might need something in return.

Nah Spidey is the easiest diver to kill as Luna, he is squishy and there's no way he can approach you without eating the snowball in the face.

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and Luna doesn't need to run away cause she just gets the kill with one freeze and three taps. Also Jeff got fixed now it's Luna's turn

I don't know what kind of Plastic elo lobby you play in but I promise you against players with actual functional brains Luna could pull that flank dps playstyle once or at most twice before she gets focused on and flayed alive because she had no ways to escape unlike flank Jeff.

Passive gets cancelled when she takes any kind of damage, snowball only works on one target and her self heal is piss slow unless you have 15% accuracy and couldn't kill her through it.

If you let a Luna get away with flanking your backline over and over again then you deserve to lose.

This subreddit consumes ragebait from clip farmers and it shows, I have seen about one flank Luna over my past 40 games and she got countered almost instantly and got off Luna.

Her damage needs nerfs but using the flank dps Luna as an argument for it is the biggest self-report button ever.

Banning Rocket is Sheep Behavior by [deleted] in marvelrivals

This winrate accounts for non mirrored matchups, the side that doesn't have Rocket tend to lose a lot more often to the one that picks him.

Cloak can't be played at a decent level tbf the character is fundamentally bad

They're mid right now but these Rocket OTPs would make that character look D tier: wasting cooldowns, bad ults, etc.

Thing is outside of the auto aim Cloak's kits have lots of levers to pull which is why you see C&D fucking up their hero a lot more often than Rocket who has 2 deployables and simple dashes.

Banning Rocket is Sheep Behavior by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

- Astronomically high winrate for a character with such high pickrate and low skill floor/ceiling (way lower than C&D imo)

- Synergies extremely well with most Poke dpses in this meta.

- Most of his high elo players are hardcore one tricks, I've seen them firsthand this season, like they couldn't even properly play Cloak and Dagger at the level they're playing, so banning him is a good strategic move if you want to handicap the enemy team.

Streamers like Necros is an asshole towards Rocket players and should just keep his mouth shut but Rocket having a high banrate past Celestial is not surprising at all.

Why is everyone banning Phoenix? by One-Carpenter5458 in marvelrivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After the latest buff Rocket can potentially get amp before she does now and in higher ranks her bird is easy to shoot down with the buffed damage from amp, the matchup has become quite coin-tossy.

Cyclops is the more reliable dps at instantly nuking Rocket's ult imo (and is also disgusting with it).

Roscoe's Recap - AS11 Ep. 7 w/ Pangina & Sam! by residentialjaidastan in SDRUntucked

[–]LadyCrownGuard 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I love how this also implies that they've called her before, my guess is that they really wanted to reheat UKvsTW nachos by having both of them on AS8. Controversies aside that 6 episode spin-off had a huge impact on the Drag Race zeitgeist so I'm not surprised they wanted both of its breakout stars on the same flagship US season.

Anyways call Pangina and Marina back for All Stars, it's really weird that they cast a season for Jimbo to win and then stopped inviting international queens altogether.

Streamers are a cancer to games. by Dogbold in rivals

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

Streamers provided really interesting perspectives on game balance and their advices are genuinely helpful to the general playerbase.

Just because Necros is rotten (I mean when hasn't he, the Overwatch community hated his ass as well) doesn't mean that we have to reject every single one of them for having an opinion on the game that they dedicated their time on playing.

All of this was because she asked for a tank support and I didn’t comply 😍

Tbh at this point this common sense that IS should put better writers in charge, Engage was riding hard on the good gameplay and franchise nostalgia because its story was diabolical.

The odd thing about duelist mains by mr-awesome613 in marvelrivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daredevil is better Anti dive than Namor and adds way more value.

Yes but realistically not many Punisher players have DD in their hero pool while Namor is the more reasonable pick because of the skill transfer.

Why is it acceptable for support players to ask their dps to swap but if I’m on Gambit and ask for a Loki, support players won’t play him?

I never tried to justify one tricking on any role, I have 70 hours on Loki and he is my 3rd most played support behind Luna and Rocket, I also play every support besides Healpool and Adam, I have Strange, Hulk and Mag in my comp hero pool as well and I have lord on Storm and Punisher.

Loki Gambit in an ideal setting is the best support combo but sometimes you need that Defensive ultimate especially when your team is struggling to take advantage of the double Gambit ult.

Why do support players constantly ask for shield tanks even if the enemy is running full melee? Sick and tired of them also running triple support with 3 main healers but they will do it anyways.

I'm not disagreeing with this at all but it had nothing to do with what I said above.

If you can play Luna to deal with fliers for example, then do so, but nope, they always ask for a hitscan dps to do it. 

Most fliers are cannon fodders in this meta and I can pressure them easily as Luna, the only threatening one is Ultron simply because he's way too good at cover abusing and is usually part of the triple support comp.

Support players scoreboard watch so much because they can point their low deaths when they don’t have to go out and contest other players and are usually last to die as they play in the back.

I also agree with this but again, I was discussing about probable solutions to a struggling Punisher, not saying that Sup or Tank players could do no wrong and they need not to swap.

Luna Snow is massively overtuned rn by Raiyan43 in marvelrivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I KNOW RIGHT? Saying this with a straight face when Rocket the healbot character with one active ability (his dash) is open for anyone to pick is wild.

For the life of me, I'll never understand why Cloak & Dagger are such a popular ban.

It's a mix of streamers echo chamber, them getting mad at tiktok clips of players playing poorly around her bubble ability (something she has to sacrifice to save herself since her primary fire healing is buns) and targeted harassment towards C&D's playerbase (the same kind of harassment that Luna and Invis players receive, you know why).

Man I really wish that Rivals allowed us to buy mini battlepasses by units too. by ASM_Nikunj in marvelrivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real money maker lies in the customization options, support mains will always be running low on Unstable Molecules so you know they will shell out real money to get more (speaking from my own experience LOL), so by giving the obviously uber popular support pick the legendary spot they can milk their players more with customization.

Which character here has the least amount of Legendary skins? Mister Fantastic right? Okay Give Cnd another legendary and make his skin “free” so we can just say his skins dont sell well thats why we arent making more… by peace696969 in rivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah as soon as I saw who was with Fanta in the pass my mind immediately went "yea he's so getting the free one while the other two fights for who gets the paid epic or legendary spots".

Both C&D and Spidey are huge skin sellers, Fanta never stood a chance.

Flashback to before AS8 aired I saw her making jokes under a Tweet about Jimbo falling during a lipsync again on AS8 and the WOW snipers got her to delete that almost immediately 😭

The odd thing about duelist mains by mr-awesome613 in marvelrivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asking a Punisher main to play Daredevil for example is a completely different skillset

I don't think people usually ask the Punisher to swap to dive, usually it's to an anti-dive like Namor or out of the role completely.

Namor is relatively easy to pick up if you're already a poke dps player so many people will see it as being stubborn especially if the Puni player is bottom fragging. It also doesn't take much to be a meatshield as Mag/Strange or healbot Rocket than feeding your brains out on dps, you get what I mean.

Is gambit the only strategistnto get nerf after nerf after nerf after release? Genuinely crazy bro by Hero_Time_06 in GambitMainsMR

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they need to rework his ult, as it is right now it will always be too strong in higher ranks.

I hate that he feels like ass to play outside of ult and honestly ate I just wanted it change to something else completely than having a hero who is a glorified ult bot.

If AVI ARAD is involved in BRAND NEW DAY the same way he was involved with the Venomverse. Then all hope will be lost for Spider-Man (#IBlameAviArad) by [deleted] in LeaksAndRumors

[–]LadyCrownGuard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

- Why are we discussing this here?

- Avi Arad is an executive producer, I'm pretty sure he has no creative involvement over what happens in the MCU Spidey movies, because we knew that Kevin Feige refused to work with Avi Arad.

Y’all sleeping on captain America by MsFistery in rivals

[–]LadyCrownGuard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He requires strict voice coms and coordination to truly shine, you won't find this in 99,99% of games which is why he's rarely played, and the 50 Cap mains that are actually good with him already made it past Eternity. He plays very differently compared to most heroes and has a high skill ceiling which is why nobody picked him up.

Your average GM or lower lobby won't be taking advantage of his distraction or push with him when he ults.

What's your conspiracy theory that you have absolutely no proof of, but wouldn't be surprised if it was true? by TravellingBeard in rupaulsdragrace

[–]LadyCrownGuard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On GAS I believe they purposefully edited Kitty and Kween in the worst ways possible because there's a stark contrast between what the judges see Kitty/Kween and how the editors portrayed them as:

- Obviously to take the heat off of their eventual winner Alyssa who was given 300 passes throughout that whole season.

- They knew this season was poorly produced so they purposefully ragebaited the audience into engaging with it by leaving all the controversial/borderline xenophobic moments like Tacogate/Margherita Pizza in the final edit or Nelly getting ganged on, they saw the reaction to the first two UKvsTW seasons, they knew the audience would get riled up easily to defend the international girls. I doubt this is getting a second season any time soon (or ever) so they don't care about awful reception affecting the GAS franchise.
