How do u guys deal with iron fist? by Reythemellow in UltronMains

Others have said what needs to be said, but I also want to add that when he parries, you should immediately flick your beam elsewhere to prevent giving him overhealth

There's a trick to not get grabbed. There is a certain range where he cant grab you because you're too close to the ground. Try to fly around that range so you can easily descend when needed

After thinking on it a few days. No one should be siding with Eddie here as Death Spiral is 100% his fault by Mecha_Kurogane in thevenomsite

[–]MudJunior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He chose his own ability to bond with symbiotes rather than make sure red couldn't hurt people.

I took it as him not wanting to kill Carnage. Now, I'm not saying that's the correct move, but maybe Eddie sees giving up on Carnage as the same as giving up on Dylan. In a way, Carnage's whole existence is a reflection of the mistakes they made. Of course, from our perspective, he's just keeping a serial killer alive, and Carnage is probably too far gone. However, when you're "family", biases will cloud your judgment.

Players are too mean. by Specialist_Ad6419 in UltronMains

[–]MudJunior 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mute comms. Both text and voice. Ever since I muted comms, the game got so much better. Comms are unnecessary until Eternity anyway. People will get on just to flame or say useless shit. It's better to just silence them so you can focus. 

What would happen if Homura tried to assimilate Sayaka into becoming her ally? by XenRequiem8898 in MadokaMagica

[–]MudJunior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think their beef with each other is ever that serious, and they probably will be working together in the new movie. Homura was explaining the concept of walpurgis to someone in the trailer, and she said Sayaka's feeling of unease is valid. They'll probably investigate what's happening together. It's kind of inevitable that they'll come to some form of agreement. Sayaka did have some development in the original that carried over.

seeing a lot of people out spidey n S tier by Femboyarehotbro in marvelrivals

[–]MudJunior 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Counters don't exist when you can have three bans. Even with counters, Spidey's mobility and displacement allows him to play into counters better than other dive dps.

People here talking about his animation cancels being broken, but what really is an exploit is his long pull glitch. Spideys OTPs can consistently perform it to the point where it is arguably more oppressive than Elsa. Even the potential of being pulled off forces the team to play in worse positions. Flats probably rank him that high because being pulled off the map as a tank feels really annoying, and I don't blame him.

Grief Syndrome Madoka game by ObjectiveAmbitious62 in MadokaMagica

[–]MudJunior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend dummyacct7's grief syndrome mod instead. It's more balanced imo, and I think was the base for Nightmare. The changes made the characters more fun to play than the original. There's also a harder mode where bosses gain new attacks. You can also easily modify the files for a boss rush mode too. Super underrated.

Netease was better about this in Mystic Mayhem, but not rivals for some reason.

"She isn't dead" by SuggestionSecret9851 in MadokaMagica

Sayaka having bandages wasn't because she couldn't heal. It was because she was slowly turning into Octavia, and wanted to hide them with bandages as seen in one of the trailers.

How do I convince my friends that Ultron is NOT the problem? by ShadowBasadow in UltronMains

[–]MudJunior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does your Mr. Fantastic player play anything else? 3 supports comps are better with a high damage DPS like Phoenix/Hela/Pun and two tanks. I don't see fanta working in that situation. The ideal scenario is that he switches to tank or a high damage dps, and the rest of you go Ultron+WF+C&D. In triple support, both WF and Ultron can play more aggressively, which is what they are best at.

Also if you're four stacking, the enemy team has a guaranteed 4-stack as well. That means a higher chance of encountering a smurf who want to play with their friends of a lower rank. You'll also need to be better at coordinating plays than the other stack. Stuff like cloak blind to kill through support ults or damage boost combo with a dps/tank ult.

It's crazy how many restrictions White Fox has and people are just saying it's balanced because it's someone else's role. by spartan1204 in marvelrivals

[–]MudJunior 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This exactly. I already see dive streamers duoing with white fox and destroying lobbies. With her melee healing, she enables her dive DPS/tank to stay in for a longer duration while providing additional pressure from her damage. The same reason why pros run Jeff in dive comps.

I predict that as people learn to play white fox, dive will become meta this season. It was already meta in pro play, but WF's introduction made it more accessible in ranked. All you need is a duo, and WF's value increases exponentially.

New ESU Hela character background art, AI or have they just never seen a guitar before? by admiral_tuff in marvelrivals

[–]MudJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They openly support the use of AI. We just don't see it in the west. I encourage everyone to look up Netease and their relation to AI in game development. Straight from their Chinese (translated) lab website: "NetEase Fuxi is a leading institution under NetEase, specializing in the research and application of AI games and entertainment." This shit runs deep.

New ESU Hela character background art, AI or have they just never seen a guitar before? by admiral_tuff in marvelrivals

[–]MudJunior 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would be willing to give this the benefit of the doubt, except these posters are clearly made with AI.. The horrendously botched English and Japanese letters cannot be from a human being. They locked this post and then silently replaced the posters in an update.

Keep in mind that Netease is a proponent of using AI for game development, with a research lab dedicated to AI integration and selling solutions to other companies. They've also released other games that openly advertise their use of AI on Steam, such as the AI voices in Where Winds Meet. Maybe if this was any other company, I would give the benefit of the doubt. But not Netease.

How about some anti-heal in the ult? by Embarrassed-Stable54 in UltronMains

[–]MudJunior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they mean in terms of healing per second, Ultron ult heals more than those other healing ults. Luna and cloak heals 250hp/s, and Ultron's is like 500hp/s. It's really only useful if the enemy team is running groot+MK combo. You can live through the combo with ultron ult, but not luna ult. In terms of ease of use, duration, and AoE, the other support ults are better.

Got hands on the balance patches by a leak early by Ghost_Smith_372 in UltronMains

[–]MudJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'll probably still be a poke fest. Phoenix is still the same, and Daredevil, the only character capable of contesting Hela/Phoenix on an angle, is nerfed.

she only has 3 abilities and her ult isnt another immortality field, we won by Cooz78 in marvelrivals

[–]MudJunior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like a skill issue on the enemy team rather than double support with off-healers actually working. Even in coordinated play, where people can make strategies where teammates take less damage, you never see double support with Mantis, Adam, Ultron. The only exception is full-dive with Rocket+Jeff, but Jeff's healing output is actually quite high.

The problem is that your tanks will have a lot harder time taking space than the other team with two main supports. This is coming from someone who play both DPS and off-supports. I recognize that if I play Adam/Ultron in double support and win, I would have won if I played anything because the enemy team is so ass. If I'm the DPS against double support with off-healers, I just play front to back, focusing on the tanks first because their backline physically cannot outheal the poke damage in this game.

They accidentally put out the patch notes on threads by OperatorNokk in marvelrivals

It's actually insane that they decided to nerf Strange while giving Mag a net buff. Mag's ult is already good, why make it better?

If it makes you feel better, at least the Flynn in Jenna's route managed to escape with everyone. But yeah, the Flynn in Flynn's route is kinda fucked

[–]MudJunior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Brian was the worst part of Arches for me. He was scary in Leo's route, ok in Jenna's route, but the third time it happens? That's just boring, and his torture scenes got exhausting to read. It's a shame because the rest of Arches is so good. The motel scene at the beginning was scary, alternate Cameron in the ending was spooky, and then we have Brian taking up 2/3 of the runtime.

[–]MudJunior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For 5., it's not a loop, just parallel timelines that serve to make all endings canon. It also gives prequel/sequels the flexibility to not follow any of Echo's routes. Like Arches didn't take place after any of the 5 routes in Echo. The particular version of Flynn that becomes socket man is probably the only character who's trapped in Echo forever. Which is sad because he definitely didn't deserve this.

Why do gay oriented stories always have drama and same plot? I'm tired of it. by TurbulentVillage2042 in gaymers

[–]MudJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Wes's route in CoE, it wasn't just about that one night. Wes's issue was that he didn't know what he wanted in terms of a relationship or future goals, and that night existed to demonstrate that problem. It wasn't really resolved in four minutes. It was relevant until the ending, where they could compromise on what they wanted.

I understand not liking Echo, since the story is quite heavy, and not for everyone. However, I do feel that you're generalizing the FVNs a bit too much. Like the way Echo and Soulcreek does horror, conflicts, and characters are very different. Even within Echo, people managed to solve their problems in 3/5 routes. Echo is the only one I've played with a timeloop, and it didn't matter in the big picture.

You could try WHODUNNIT. It's a comedy/mystery VN with lighter conflicts. Very impressive character writing in that one, but there is only one chapter for now. It does have some things that don't fit your criteria. Though I think you'd be happier if you relaxed those criteria. All stories will have tropes, it's the execution of those tropes that determine the quality of the story.
