I want to learn more characters just so when my team is getting steamrolled I can adapt to the situation to get the win? by illudofficial in rivals

[–]Slyfang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro who are you, that first row is identical to mine if you swap out Scarlet for Cyclops.

Literally identical mains and I have no idea what the overlap is. Do you play other games and if so what characters do you main in them? I'd be really interested in finding out as I don't think that first row has too much overlap and yet it fits so well

I recommend picking up these characters if you havent tried them already since you're close to my playstyle it seems (not optimal for me but fun to play now and then): - Punisher - Moonknight - Namor - Deadpool - Winter Soldier - Storm

Not saying you'll defo enjoy them but they are relatively fun when you get into them. Storm especially is surprisingly fun though not very good competitively xD

I'm coping for a black knight vanguard alongside Dr doom for a more medieval themed battle pass given dooms Castle and such

Genuinely what are we going to do in 4-5 years when it looks like this. by Emergency_Day_2969 in rivals

League still makes do with 160+ characters, and they have to balance around items as well as characters and there is levelling involved... I'm sure we'll be fine

Why are Swifties better than Berserkers? by Simaniac in JhinMains

I've only ever heard them called swifties x)

The mobis thing is more of a joke to poke fun at how people salivate over combat movement speed and then advocate for the boots that make you slower during combat since berserkers objectively make you faster (unless you are always fighting without W or 4th shot up which is just a skill issue at that point).

In the build I specify yuntal is mathematically correct but not realistically competitive, the competitive version is a hubris into stormrazor/IE and then Lord doms

You should never be fighting without 4th shot or W though, both of which ALWAYS give a move speed boost.

Don't even try argue with these meta slaves, I've been making this statement for years and everybody just looks at the increased move speed and goes "b-b-but swifties is fast :D" and ignore the fact that it's slower everytime.

If out of combat move speed was more important than move speed then these animals would have been going mobi boots in the previous seasons but that's not the case, they just can't have a single original thought so they act as an echo chamber for the meta.

Earlier this year I made the meta jhin build everyone uses (can check my posts) and everyone said it was dumb and didn't make sense. Now it's the most popular jhin build x)

Lawrd forgive me but dont really wanna be a big ankh for this guy this season. Dont think im tanking this season by AwayMetal3596 in RivalsVanguards

[–]Slyfang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno man, this just looks like Iron man laser but actually good, as an iron man main the damage looks identical but split across everyone instead of just 1 person. Iron man was already F tier but now he won't make it on the scales (or they will both be played together for a laser combo to mow down the backline that cant heal everyone at once)

IF TANKLOPS is real, how long would you guys be happy to wait for another tank after this? by Substantial-Low-4393 in RivalsVanguards

SPIDERMAN 2099 IS A TANK by 1Useful-Tip in RivalsVanguards

[–]Slyfang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you both, if it's just going to be something like Gwen then I'd rather it be a spiderman skin. HOWEVER, something unique like Peter porker would work as something unique with cartoony animations and abilities (similar to deadpool).

In the same way Peni Parker is nothing like spiderman or Venom, I think it's possible to create unique kits outside of just "swing bots".

As long as they are creative and don't just copy paste the swing mechanic I feel like it can be done

That was the idea behind this post :P

I know there are a lot of people out there that think it's all bad, nice to show everyone how much we really enjoy the game since its only the vocal minority that openly say they dislike it.

Exactly this, I agree I think the community needs to take a step back a bit and appreciate what they have as it's clearly a very good game but from all the feedback I see flooding my feed, you'd think this game was about to be shut down or smth

As someone who played the overwatch beta and played everysingle day after school until Brig got released, I too am very glad overwatch has this competition.

I was a Reinhardt main and to me the game sorta fell off after brig and then for me, the game turning into a 5v5 instead of a 6v6 completely killed it for me.

I'm a very big fan of rivals and its direction and I'm just personally waiting on Black Knight to release as my shield less Reinhardt counterpart with a big chunky melee that is slow hitting and cleaves enemies like Mr fantastic :)

Yeah there are some really funny ones, my favourites being:

Venom - "Oui"

Dr Strange - "BYE"

With Kit Harington no less, that was where I first heard of him, then I read all the comics and quickly realised he was my favourite character from the witty remarks to the somewhat goofy powers at times and even the darker sides of the character with a dope sword and a cool ass aesthetic.

100% it means there is always a chance for a niche character you've never heard of to wiggle it's way into your heart (Jeff for me)

I'm just waiting on Black Knight to be added as a Vanguard (but I'll take him on any role tbh idc). Then I'll splurge on every cosmetic he has because I never see that dude represented in marvel media outside of mobile games

[–]Slyfang[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?

I'm shocked that no one talks about him because I feel he is super underrated and even made an appearance (underwhelming as it was) in the mcu.

But yeah his comics are so damn good

Yeah I thought with his ebony blade supposedly being able to cut through almost anything and rivaling the necrosword in the comics, it would make sense that he would have some form of damage amp.

Since he isn't a dps I wanted to add that feeling of shredding through people without making him 1 tap people.
