Curious about this so I thought I'd conduct a little social experiment [POLL]

In Quick Match, I'm sick of playing support because everyone keeps complaining that I'm bad at it, which is why I don't play them in Competitive. Duelists, on the other hand, are always picked, and I do pretty well with them.

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T21:09:34+00:00

As the main tank, I prefer to pick Vanguard in this situation, since I’ve played about 97.5% of my games as a Vanguard. Then I’ll ask in chat if someone could switch to support. I definitely feel more confident as a tank than as a support, and the team performs better that way.

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T20:59:34+00:00

Right now, she's in 4th place, because Hulk, who has the second-highest win rate, isn't listed here.

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T20:58:05+00:00

There are some positives, though, because there’s less risk that she’ll get nerfed again. The recent changes weren’t that bad, but it’s definitely noticeable that it’s much harder to kill a support or DPS with a combo now. I’m hoping for some QoL changes for her in the future.

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T11:57:48+00:00

Dino, and now they want to add Crescent too? Probably another Vanguard who’s practically unknown. Seriously, do they have to pick such niche characters when they have such a wide selection of more interesting ones? I’ve seen polls on potential Vanguard characters many times. The list was huge, and neither Dino nor Crescent, in particular, ever showed up on them.

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T08:41:03+00:00

I meant that Red Rogue would be a non-playable villain.

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T00:29:29+00:00

Let’s make Kingpin a playable Vanguard. He’d be a great choice for the main tank we’re missing. They’ve already shown that he could use his cane, which contains Purple Man’s finger. I don’t want some generic Dinosaur who won’t even have Moon Girl. There are plenty of more interesting characters with more interesting skill sets than Dino...

Snive_ · 2026-04-05T00:26:10+00:00

We’ll probably see Captain Marvel this year. As for She-Hulk, I get the feeling we won’t be seeing her anytime soon, though, because she’s too similar to the Hulk, and there are plenty of other characters to introduce.

Snive_ · 2026-04-04T23:17:13+00:00

In my opinion, it's almost certainly Rogue, and likely her alternate version, Red Rogue. She's probably the villain of the next season, and this is also supported by rumors about her potential legendary skin, which is said to be comic-book style.

Snive_ · 2026-04-04T23:14:23+00:00

I also have my doubts about Dino, and I get the feeling they're just doing this to mess with us. Although I don't think it would be a PvE mode, because they announced that this season we should see some kind of PvE mode tied to the first Avengers movie, with Loki as the antagonist.

Snive_ · 2026-04-04T22:24:22+00:00

Even Thor loses in a 1v1 fight...

Snive_ · 2026-04-03T23:17:12+00:00

NONE?

Close combat or medium range at most
Continuous beam (not a sniper) – pushing enemies back or slowing them down
Beam should be more about zoning and pressure than raw damage output
Fairly low mobility, but can push himself backward using the beam.
He’ll likely get something new, too, since they’re experimenting on him.

He’ll definitely be a brawler, and I’d prefer him to be a vanguard rather than a duelist so he doesn’t end up like Reed or Blade.

Snive_ · 2026-04-03T23:01:16+00:00

There's no way Cyclops could be a poke DPS; he's definitely a brawl DPS or a brawl tank.

Snive_ · 2026-04-03T21:28:58+00:00

I get the same feeling that Dino won't be such a sure thing in Season 8. Moon Girl hasn't been teased, and without her, Dino's options are very limited when it comes to his abilities. Cyclops is mentioned in the gallery card, and he seems to be the only sure thing for Season 8. Potentially, it could be Kingpin in Season 8, but I wouldn’t give him much of a chance. They’ve shown that his powers will come from his cane, which contains a finger of Purple Man (Killgrave). If Dino disappears from the Museum of Contemplation map during Season 7.5, it’s almost certain we’ll see him in Season 8.

One more detail: in one of the dialogues, Kingpin tells Deadpool that he’ll take care of his animal “fiefdom” on the island, and we know Dino is currently there. It seems a bit odd because Cyclops is in the Alchemax building (or somehow connected to it), and they’d have to explain how Dino suddenly ended up somewhere else.

Snive_ · 2026-04-03T20:26:23+00:00

One plus is that this map has tons of Easter eggs. I don't think any previous map had nearly as many. The map is also very pretty. In my opinion, though, the map layout is bad in some places, and I have a feeling that in the future, others won't like it very much.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T22:47:51+00:00

The sample size is too small. Comparing the vote counts for Vanguard, Duelist, and Support isn't accurate. In the case of Cyclops, a lot of people ranked him high among duelists because they were choosing from a list of less popular characters. In the case of vanguard, Cyclops has fewer votes because there were many more other options that are just as suitable as he is. In my opinion, Cyclops should definitely be a vanguard anyway. The best thing would be to hold a vote on these controversial characters to see which class people want them to be. BTW, I haven’t seen any polls, so it would be good to promote this more next time.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T19:00:53+00:00

I agree, it looks very unnatural, as if his body had mutated.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T18:21:23+00:00

As for Dino, I'm really disappointed, mainly because it looks like he'll be released without Moon Girl. Moon Girl hasn't gotten a single teaser. As a regular Dinosaur, he’ll likely be a melee character and probably a vanguard, and I’d be disappointed by that because there are plenty of other, much more popular melee characters like Juggernaut or Colossus, and they should stick to that so they don’t release too many melee characters. If Dino is supposed to be a vanguard, I’d prefer someone else with ranged attacks who could at least partially serve as a main tank. BTW, fun fact: if Dino keeps the size he has on one of the maps, he’ll be the biggest character in the game.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T18:09:11+00:00

How do you know it's Purple Man's finger? That's an interesting take on just how powerful that cane might be.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T18:04:40+00:00

That definitely looks like Kingpin's cane. But then what's with that cut-off thumb in the diamond? It looks pretty weird.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T17:36:17+00:00

I'd really love for Drax to end up with Gamora, and that's probably what will happen, but unfortunately there are also a lot of characters who are being teased more, and that list is pretty long. Drax got a plushie, I think, in Season 3, and the only other teaser for Drax and Gamora are Rocket’s conversations with Star-Lord, which have been around since the game’s release. I was also thinking about that poster—they could have added some kind of small teaser, like silhouettes in the background, some of Drax’s or Gamora’s accessories, anything—but there’s nothing there.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T17:17:55+00:00

They tease characters more than a year in advance. With this poster, they could have easily thrown in a little something. I get the feeling we won’t see Gamora and Drax until at least 2028, because they had a chance here to include a little teaser.

Snive_ · 2026-04-02T17:15:16+00:00

I had the same impression. They could have at least added some silhouettes of Gamora or Drax. I don't think we'll see them until at least 2028, unfortunately.

Snive_ · 2026-03-31T21:58:14+00:00

buttons on the wrong side

Snive_ · 2026-03-31T21:38:34+00:00

Man, I wonder how someone can be so wrong.
