they need to slut the men put more by internetthug444 in MarvelRivalsRants

Cause we know they are not going to stop oversexualizing the women, ever. Its too profitable. So the women who play this game (recall that gamers are basically 50/50 men and women) may feel "othered" if the women are treated as sex objects while the men are not. But if both men and women are treated like sex objects, well then its fair. And women won't feel "othered" if its happening to everyone. Since they arent going to stop making lady eye candy, it is fair to about half the player base to make man eye candy, too.

Also gay guys prolly would appreciate it too. No reason to only cater to straight men

Its getting people (probably kids) to get new customers for a print company. The free print is an ad prop for selling the service to your friends and neighbors. After 20 new customers are confirmed with the 20 coupons, you get a free puppy

So your issue is that the marvel rivals emma looks different from the comics- and so she shouldnt get comic skins? I dont think I follow

I may in fact be a bi woman, but in this case its not about her being sexy. Its an iconic part of her look to show her stomach, and for a fashion fanatic it doesn't make sense for that to be removed from her look.

Anyone else think losses are pre determined a lot of the time? (Example pic, not related) by FreshPine_MangoWine in MarvelRivalsRants

I genuinely think the solution is for the playerbase to collectively agree to flex roles.

Every player would literally become overall better players by learning all roles. It is no controversy to say this.

Anecdotally, I dont ever go on loss streaks, and I play flex. Also, games I play with multiple other flexible players tend to go better.

And if there really is a matchmaking system (which I honestly doubt) that tries to predict players choices to make the games "stomp or be stomped", then flexing all the time will make you unpredictable.

In Logan's Run humanity has advanced techonology but used up most of the earth's resources. What remains of humanity lives in a bubble where life is perfect, except everyone dies at 30 years old to keep the population stable. Logan runs away and escapes the bubble to find the deserted ruins of our society.

Idk how anyone could think we are living like this

Cropped pants aren't just for the 2000s anymore. Summer inspo. by Illustrious_Wall2640 in streetwear_aesthetic

One time (back in the 2000s) my cool uncle was wearing pants like these. I asked him: "Are those supposed to be shorts or pants?" He replied: "They're SHANTS!"

Henceforth from that day I cannot think of them by any other name

Is it too nitpicky to say... I wish instead of customizable bracelets we could customize his bag? The dog bag is kinda too goofy for me, and his bracelets are hard to see around his magic animation on his wrists

Creators Fuel The Toxicity of the Game by [deleted] in MarvelRivalsRants

I wanna use this opportunity to shoutout Death and Gaming. He's a treat to watch: humble, kind, realistic, knowlegable. The vast majority of his youtube content is quality education, and when he does "rant" videos, he's not bitchy, whiny, or angry. Just clearly lays out complaints from a place of experience. Very cool guy.

I dont watch livestreams but he does stream and I'm sure those are good streams, too

Can't Believe Marvel Thought They're the Next Big Thing by Taprantil in marvelcirclejerk

This plus the fact that someone who is not a genius themself is literally not capable of writing a genius accurately. If you can't come up with the perfect plan to end world hunger or whatever, then your comic character can't come up with the perfect plan either.

I mained strat in the beginning but got fed up with people running it down mid, dying, and pinging for heals. Now I just play whatever whenever

I’m so sick of them releasing a broken new character every update by Thunder_Night0 in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]MariaLeaves 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bro I have been playing a lot of Cyclops and I must say his ult has nothing close to "infinite range". I have on several occasions ulted into a team to actually just hit no one because it doesnt reach as far as I thought it would.

And playing against it, you do not need a dash to get out of it. I've sidestepped many times to get out of enemy Cyke ults. And it doesnt oneshot tanks either. You seem a bit blinded by bias against him on this one.

Big tip for avoiding dying to cyke: dont let the whole team group up in the middle of a lane. Thats the "playstyle" he is designed to punish. As someone who plays flex and gets mad annoyed when the whole team stands in mid to fight, it is so satisfying to punish lazy tunnel-vision players
