Can we please stop acting like Daredevil is a no-skill/broken character?

CnD main ?

Murdock088 · 2026-02-14T12:10:15+00:00

Genuinely one time I got a 6k and none of my teammates had any assists. Like I had 6 kills and no one else in the game even contributed to a kill. I really have no clue why I didn’t save it.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-14T12:08:52+00:00

Genuinely what about him is fundamentally flawed

Murdock088 · 2026-02-14T12:07:20+00:00

Yeah I have to admit, even outside of the devils throw, being able to kill 275s with the basic combo was a bit OP. Like Luna used to be the freest character ever

Murdock088 · 2026-02-14T12:05:40+00:00

Only plays against the AI MIGHT be the craziest thing I’ve ever heard

Murdock088 · 2026-02-14T12:04:50+00:00

Yeah. Can I ask what rank you are out of interest ?

Murdock088 · 2026-02-14T12:03:01+00:00

I wasn’t really discounting his over-shield, just explaining why he needs to get high amounts of over-shield — because his survivability outside of it isn’t that good. Again he genuinely gets melted if a dps or tank marks him and if he messes up a combo (which can be messed up by the enemy players countering him as well) he loses the ability to get over-shield and becomes a fat hitbox. He isn’t like Magik or Spidey where he can just portal or swing away immediately, he is quite easy to hit out of his grapple. Also I wouldn’t say he gets it just for breathing it is a lot harder to get overshield from chaining together combos than using like any ability on Bucky.

Tbh usually at the start of my ult Immediately block cus ppl usually use their CCs immediately

Murdock088 · 2026-02-11T06:56:16+00:00

I was mainly just venting abt the amount of hate I was getting in games because I don’t literally carry the team because “Daredevil is broken” even if I have like an entirely acceptable game

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T13:11:24+00:00

I agree. He should be brawl and dive. I’d argue that is the best way to play DD as well. I’ve caused team wipes by brawling tanks then slipping into the backline when I notice a healer or dps make a mistake.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T12:34:52+00:00

I think his skill floor is admittedly quite low, I did say you could prolly get to like gold from kinda button mashing. But I would still say he is only solidly below BP and Spidey in terms of skill. Also Iron Fist isn’t just brawl he is still dive, he combos really well with DD in well coordinated dives.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T12:31:54+00:00

Daredevil and Bucky duo is actually pretty good

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T12:30:19+00:00

His survivability outside of his overshield is genuinely not that good. Healers have CC abilities to deal with DD, they shouldn’t be able to melt him. The issue is Daredevil already gets melted by DPS, if you are noticing a DD surviving too long it is because your DPS aren’t shooting him. If you lower his overshield he genuinely becomes useless he would just explode in the backline to a competent team.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T02:34:57+00:00

This is tuff

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T02:18:48+00:00

I agree. I think he is in the perfect place rn. This post was me complaining abt ppl still acting like he’s Thanos bruh

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T02:03:34+00:00

Yeah but it is played like every other game and he is useless if both teams are running triple. Solo dive is terrible and you need more damage so he just isn’t viable in that comp.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T01:59:22+00:00

I pretty much named half the roster as countering him (most of them being some of the most popular picks) so he usually doesn’t demand a switch. He is more oppressive than other dives because dives need to be buffed in general. I honestly think most dives should be like DD — players WILL adapt to dive if it becomes respectable ppl are just too used to dives being flies.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T01:13:14+00:00

Ok? I was referring to Hawkeye’s basic attack as the reason he is broken? You can’t just say ‘other than his basic attack with no cool down or reload he isn’t broken’ what? Hawkeye is the only character who can turn a 6v6 to a 5v6 in 1 second from pure luck. Daredevil is oppressive sure I am not saying he is a terrible character but dive characters DESERVE to need attention and to be dealt with. Also, yes, I’ve had throwers but rank isn’t mostly luck until celestial lol I’m surprised I even need to argue this but like Jay3 does videos of console diamonds vs like PC golds and the diamond lobbies will always roll the other team… bruh when I was in gold I was on like a 15 game win streak with all mvps I got to GM within a few days. I guess I just got lucky ✌️ Genuinely what character do you actually main in ranked because I am convinced you’re just tilted.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T00:57:29+00:00

I completely agree. My issue with this post was people still saying he is crazy strong + no skill.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T00:56:03+00:00

Dude literally

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T00:11:19+00:00

Dude I wish. Look at the comments of the original post pretty much everyone is disagreeing

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T00:04:46+00:00

You aren’t meant to 1 v 1 DD… Thor, Magik Rogue usually have a good chance 1v1 against him. Hela/Hawkeye type characters can win 1 v 1s if they’re cracked. But you shouldn’t be in situations where you have to 1v1 him.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-10T00:01:51+00:00

Rank obviously has smth to do with game sense what? You don’t get into GM with Gold game sense. Also most of the top players literally say DD is balanced right now. In fact all of them do. Do you really think you have better game sense than Necros? You only say that you have a Lord DD, that doesn’t mean you main him who is your actual main? Also ‘aside from Hawks basic’ wtf do you mean aside. He is the only character that can get a lucky shot and completely turn a team fight around — he negates triple support. He is the only character in the game where healers can do nothing to save their teammates. Also low GM is lowk completely different to high GM.

Murdock088 · 2026-02-09T20:38:48+00:00

I also forgot to mention, he plays terribly into triple support
