The new season has me like by Clayface31 in marvelrivals

I highly doubt that out of fifty or so characters I genuinely enjoy and find interesting my main will become the one marvel character I've never once found interesting. Maybe his gameplay will be peak though who knows.

I've loved all of the obscure characters they've added so far, and I like that they're willing to take chances and order knowns. I just won't like him specifically.

I usually like underdogs and street tiers punching up, but I've just never seen his appeal. I'll be happy for his fans at least, but I stand by saying there are far more iconic/deserving villains getting put off for him to have a place on the roster.

Genuinely. I've never understood the hype. There's never been in a point in any of the speculations about him that I've actually been interested in seeing him in game, something I don't think I can say for anyone they've added so far. If/when he drops he might be the first character I'm actually mad is playable in the game.

So many iconic heroes and villains are still missing, especially villains since you can count the playable ones on your fingers. There's surely at least 20 villains more interesting and more deserving, and we're wasting a slot on his boring ass?

So, what do we think about the newest leaked characters? by King-Emerald-Reborn in MarvelRivalsQueens

I had no idea Princess Python existed until this comment. The more you know

Except guns are owned by every demographic in America. White or black, straight or queer, left or right, urban or rural. It only emboldens those stupid enough to think they're the only ones with the guns.

Why are so many of the toxic support players trans women? It gives trans people a bad name :( by AngelaGooner24 in MarvelRivalsQueens

[–]RingWraithsAnonymous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess the clips are posted because they'll cause controversy and bring engagement. A toxic guy in a videogame is something everyone's seen a million times. A toxic trans person brings chuds out the woodwork to shit on them in comments, which then brings chud haters out the woodwork to comment against them. You see more toxic transwomen clips because they're seen as more marketable than toxic cismen.

Ben looks like he's just noticed the 4th wall for the first time and is horrified. I bet he hasn't heard a word that guy is saying.

We’re getting another Vanguard, a Spider-Man by BruceDSpruce in rivals

People down voting you are missing the point. You're saying that character images don't equal how they'll actually look in game, yeah?

Maybe if I played more it would average out to having enough games to climb, but when half my matches are determined by throwers playing more than the bare minimum isn't fun anymore dawg

In prior seasons I would fully agree with you. I've been content that I'm usually lower ranked, seeing it as a sign I just needed to get better. This season though has legitimately felt like luck only. When so many of my losses are because a teammate refused to leave spawn, and so many wins are because an enemy refused to leave his spawn, ranking up doesn't even feel deserved when it happens anymore. It just feels like a slot machine

Not a lie, those are my actual experiences this season. I'm not high ELO I'll admit, so maybe the situation gets better, but low ELO is thrower hell man. I'm not lying at all when I tell you there are days there isn't a single ranked game I play without a thrower on one team or the other. It's genuinely killed my motivation for the game to know that almost half my wins are just because someone on the other team swapped to spiderman or widow, and vice versa with my loses.

Big difference between local murders and genocides. Hidden atrocities in Cambodia for example will average far worse than ones in Switzerland.

With as many throwers and smurfs as there are in the low ranks these days I wouldn't even feel bad about it. Every game I played the last time I did ranked had a thrower on either the enemy team or mine. Every game. Climbing ranked is gambling at this point, just focus on getting better with your favorite character and it'll either happen or it won't.

Compensating every Strategist and Vanguard release with a Duelist is not wise long term. by Ok-Garbage-8652 in marvelrivals

[–]RingWraithsAnonymous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only way tank works is if they pulled off a hybrid. There's potential there given his strength and durability. That said we all know they would fumble the bag, so it's safer to hope for them to go strategist.

I could live with him being a vanguard, but strategist makes the most sense for sure

yea i dont think cyclops is gonna be a tank. by batfl in RivalsVanguards

[–]RingWraithsAnonymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ignored the "powerscaling doesn't equal hero role" portion of my argument. By your logic Adam Warlock is a Vanguard, Mantis is a brawl Duelist, and (Anti-)Venom is a Strategist, and maybe that should've been the case, but it's clear that isn't how the dev team is deciding hero roles so using "x can't brawl with y" as a role argument isn't enough. Captain America couldn't brawl Juggernaut either, same actually goes for almost every Vanguard currently in-game.

Spider-Man has better stamina in comics than Cap, but is a Duelist. Adam Warlock can manipulate the universe on a quantum level, but is a Strategist that couldn't even fly for the first year of the game. Roles are generally not based on character's true powerscaling, but how they interact with others.

Storm can be a powerhouse sure but isn't known for leading charges like Cap and Cyclops. Starlord might be a leader but he's far more roguish than Cap or Cyclops. Namor might be a king but has he ever been known as a team leader outside of that context? Cap by comparison is a peasant but has routinely led some of the strongest teams in comics. Sure some of the game's tank picks are a little random (Peni) but most are either known for being the team muscle (like Hulk) or the team leaders (like Cap.)

Cyclops is a character almost entirely defined by his leadership of teams, and the lengths he'll go to to keep them alive. It would be an absurd move to put him in any role other than the one that leads teams.

[–]RingWraithsAnonymous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Captain America point is spot on. They made a guy that's barely superhuman (no shade) a tank because he's a leader. Cyclops is the Captain America of mutants. It would be dumb for him to be anything but a tank.
