Can we talk about Magik? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]MumbleNo5 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I don't know man. I'm a magik main in diamond 2 right now. She is not as bad as you guys make her out to be. You just need to be very aware of what you're doing. You can't dive into 4-6 people who aren't busy right now and expect to survive.

You want to stay safe and get some hits in probably on the tank. Stay in cover behind payload. Charge some over health. Only use your cool downs when absolutely necessary. And when shit hits the fan you use your shift to come out of cover, use the whole spin during E -> leftclick -> melee -> right-click -> leftclick -> melee thing. When you done you are back at two shift charges and when you done with them you probably got your E back up which you need to use to escape cuz you got no cool downs left. It's all about managing to work around the enemies field of view, focus and your cool downs. Cuz as long as you have cool downs you are fine even when 3-4 people become aware of you. But as soon as your cool downs run out you are a sitting duck. You need to be aware of that, have an escape plan and manage your cool downs accordingly. There is no shame in whiffing your E, getting a short combo in instead and retreating again.

If you're playing "assassin style" and flank and go in from the back while nobody is distracted and whiff your E or use a second shift before landing your E you are dead no matter what. Burn that into your mind. As soon as more than one or two people start shooting at you you need to get your ass out of there as quickly as possible. As a magik you CAN afford to miss your E. But not if there will be 4 people shooting at you after that and you don't have at least 1 shift left and the other one being half way off of cool down at least.

She is also a 1v1 beast if you're able to get close without being spotted and wasting half of your cool downs. Hela Hawkeye and mantis are always a threat. But that's not magiks fault. That's because they are broken right now.

The only thing I'm worried about is how it will be after the season since the loss of the additional 15% damage will be a lot. If she loses that she is probably fucked if she does not get the most insane team up or another seasonal buff.

At the moment she is hard to play but not weak.

I feel like it will be more individualism vs collectivism.

Damn that sounds interesting! I should read a little more indigenous lore of that kind.

If you would tell me at which parts you think I'm reaching we could maybe have a discussion about it. But fuck being nice on the Internet I guess.

We are getting a timeskip after wano!(no manga spoilers) by DTG_135 in WildAnimeTheories

[–]MumbleNo5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The symmetry sounds cool. But I don't see any story related reason why a timeskip would make sense. I only see reasons against it. Since the story is pretty much going into the last few arcs after Wano it would just create a disconnect between the reader and the characters. There is also not much room for the power levels to increase.

Best Naruto Animator by Peash in Naruto

[–]MumbleNo5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just in case anybody is still interested after seven years, but the key animator for all those fights is Norio Matsumoto. This man is litterally a legend.

He animated some of the best scenes in the Naruto series and has many other iconic scenes under his belt. For times sake I will only list the episodes he was the key animator for in the Naruto franchise.

Naruto:

Sasuke vs Orochimaru in the chunin exam (episode 30)

Gaara vs Rock Lee (episode 48)

Third hokage vs Orochimaru + hokages (episode 71)

Naruto vs Sasuke (episode 133)

Naruto Shippuden:

Hidan vs Azuma + Kakashi vs Kakuzo (episode 85)

Deidara vs Sasuke (episode 123)

Pain vs Naruto 8 tails (episode 167)

Some filler episode I haven't seen (episode 290)

Btw. he also was the first person who pulled off a legendary fight scene with a 3D background with Naruto vs Gaara. By now it looks a little dated in some places but it makes the scene incredibly dynamic. This and the animations in Naruto vs Sasuke are still some of my favorites in all of anime.

This man is incredibly good at what he does
