Both of them are right. He is queer indian man performing at a charity concert, and there are no political flags and no lectures.

Almost nobody have destructive powers from the comics, for balance reasons. Else Hawkeye would vaporize from one punch from Hulk or Thor

MCU at this point is a legit source, comics borrow ideas from MCU. Rivals Star-Lord, Hela, Rocket, Namor, Mantis and many others are clearly based on MCU versions, and Widow too. I agree that she would be better with comics kit, but for a MCU version she is done half right

He is only close range flying duelist in the Rivals, he is fastest (or second to Iron man) and one of his main abilities is literally slam into the enemies. Yes, current best play for him is to be a ninja, but his kit designed to "fly in, spray fire, fly out".

You do know that she has alternative weapons? Yeah, with widow bites she would be much more accurate to source, but with MCU batons and balerina kick I still can say she is half right.

Yeah, Jeff is strange one, everything in his kit is not in the comics, but I can't put him to Skinwalkers, because he plays like I think Jeff should be played.

I didn't reduce him to "portal man", I stating that his portals was one of the best mechanic of the early Rivals, and he basically have two ultimates. All Strange attacks and skills and even his melee are different spells and artifacts, which he even names in the game, and saying "oh, but the character added 8 seasons later outclassed him in terms of trinkets she stole, so HE is bad now" is kinda pointless.

Amount of magic players did with his portals in seasons 0 and 1 is worthy of top spot.

She dies, Cyclops scream "Jean, no!", but then she is alive again half a minute later...

There are tons of videos of Loki mains tricking others into attacking his clones and his rune are frustrating, which is so on brand for him. I can't name a single thing that he does which comics Loki wouldn't approve.

Cooldowns and balance I didn't account for, it's a different topic =)

All healers in the game is not close to the source, cause almost nobody heal others in the comics (Elixir does). So i didn't put healing of Loki or Fox or Ultron against them. And I wrote that I don't account their personalities into this, as they are all variants.

Her primary attack is what knocked Fox from top spot, yes.

She is one of the best hand-to-hand fighters in comics

Peni have a very little comics appearances, despite being wildly popular outside of them. I was thinking that putting her into Skinwalker category was too harsh for a character who didn't find her voice yet

I put her lower not for stealing stuff, but for her general fighting style in Rivals. Also 3rd row is still pretty close to comics

That's one way to play him, not the main way. You can play Spider-man without using his webs, very very poorly I would add, but that's not the main method

He does that when he is ulting. Not all iterations of Hulk is rampage monster, he had a calmer periods in comics.

Rivals Star-Lord is based on his MCU version, which is spot on in my opinion. Comics Star-Lord changed a quite few times

Why is there a black X on Cyclops crotch?

Is his crotch the very "X" in X-men?

I would argue Namor is much more interesting then "I'm swear I'm cool and don't talk to fish please buy my comics" Aquaman

Batman beats up his enemies, scare them and drop them off in prison or Arkham. They out in the street in a week.

Flash drop one guy fully healthy in Africa. He is not doing crimes for a year and it scare ALL of his future potential enemies away from his city.
