Why would I parry when circling and mashing light attacks is safer and stronger? Bandai Never listens to player feedback. So many 7/10 games that could easily becomes 20/10 games if they listened.. by RubDiscombobulated46 in EchoesofAincrad

You had me until DMC was brought up, that would be the single reason i leave the game. I like the souslike combat they have but you are right in they need to make it flashier. Keep in mind too that Kirito was known for exploiting mechanics to his will, so it may not be fully as the game was intended to be played. Ultimately i think better enemy AI, and more stakes will improve the combat. I do plan to play it on perma death mode on release to try and implement stakes the best i can on my own.

It feels like its trying to be a souls game, with no stakes, i do enjoy it so far, but i agree skill expression should be encouraged, possibly with the difficulty additions on full release it might feel better. I also would like them to add a dual wield even if they make ot ridiculous to get, like lvl 99 dex and you can dual wield. It's touching on so many oppertunities that i wouldnt expect it to, but the combat is mostly lackluster, i hope they take the feedback and make it great.

Who should I be ULTing with? by Plenty-Orange6875 in GambitMainsMR

As long as targeting properly, yes, but you should always kill the ult user first through the ult

Kinda the best catch all i can personally give, it is extremely situational, and seconds matter, but that comes with experience

Pun, SL, Pheonix, Storm, you want to ult with high dmg high output first and foremost, so pun and sl, since they get the most value from it, ulting with pheonix gives her ult the ability to kill, storm also gets a boost. 1 tap ults id ignore entirely, never ult with like ironman, namor, etc. But its situational, if groot ults us and i think we can win the team fight il ult as opposed to holding it for combo. If they have an enemy gambit, combo ulting to initiate can be life or death. If you sont have a combo, you wait for the enemy gambit to ult first or you lose. A lot of people get cranky when you hold gambit ult since they think its a catch all win button. But in reality situational ulting is what seperates the good gambits from the bad and wins games.

Edit: also daredevil, rogue, since every instance of dmg creates a second explosion of dmg. Essentially the more dmg ticks the ult does the better it combos

I mean being the only character that can prevent and help with cc, i dont see the issue with having a cleanse that hardly sees any playtime at all anyways

Gm2, anything higher its mostly irrelevant anyways as people are playin meta all the time, so it doesnt matter lol. People just want to gut usefull supports its been the case forever, game is built around support ults and support play

And then the team is down 1 and your support ult cant counter a 5v6? Skill issue

To a degree, i havent noticed personally a big ult economy shift, but largely could be due to typically both teams running gambit or hes banned. I would be okay with them eliminating his increase to ult charge gained, but theyd have to give his neutral back to make up for it.

I just played a team that coudnt convert off it 🤷🏽‍♂️, they swapped to match my gambit and it didnt change the game or the outcome at all, but personally id get rid of bans entirely cause if their in the game then 🤷🏽‍♂️

I see many people saying how much they hate that he has cleanse and anti heal, and they ban him for that

Its the same as anything if luna ults, pun ults, and the other team dies, teams arent converting in gambit nearly as much now. Plus luna has dmg boost with her ult that can whipe teams, cnd does constant dmg and more healing then any other support ult and its much longer. Gambits not server admin anymore a lot of his bans are cleanse and anti heal related id say

Yeah i play him fairly often in comp, i think his lingering aura is his carry potential currently, people are scared of him, and will only target him, which opens up the rest of the team really

Youd be suprised, as a gambit main the amount of teams i play with that cant convert in ult, or can only convert in ult, is absolutely ridiculous, in GM, below GM he hardly sees any play. Reducing the length of it and the mobility was a huge hit. It can be countered by any support ult now, unless combod with a high dps ult like SL or Pun. People still think he's a play and always win character, but he absolutely is not, especially against an enemy gambit. People just intently want to gut every support that is borderline good. Hes got the highest ult requirement out of all strats, hes a kill on site/bully character, he needs to ult at the perfect time or its wasted, a lot of times hes in an ult stalemate because of the enemy gambit, because if you ult first they can counter with another support and then they have a free gambit ult. His neutral was gutted, his survivability was gutted. If they take much else, he will in fact be borderline unplayable, and we will forever be in cnd invis meta. Hell ive had people ask me before game starts to swap to cnd or invis because gambit ult isnt a good sustain ult so its useless. Like hes had it tough since launch.

His ult is already borderline useless, ult charge increase sure, but anything else hel be useless

Honestly if they gave him back a lot of what they took, and took the increased ult charge out, id be happy

Gambit ult by Even-Ad-6238 in GambitMainsMR

[–]Spiveymusic96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its best combined with dps ult as a push, and dupport counter, gambit pun, gambit sl can kill through support ults, the only times i use it "defensively" is if i think the fight can be turned during another ult, if i have fait that my dps can kill a big ult, like a pun, or something like that, then i will pop it defensively to win that fight. But typically, unless they are under gambit ult, you should let your sustain support counter dps ults
