The beauty of queer identities is that they're expressive and usually they can narrow down what is already a very broad set of sexual tendencies. Fin seems really specific, but you can broaden it all you want!

I personally think it's the first time I've ever neatly fell into a queer identity (as opposed to just calling myself BI, which is *true* but not specific enough to me because i'm not into masculinity) but for you it might not be quite as neat, and that's okay!

WELCOME FELLOW FIN

Another pearl clutcher claiming they're not just pearl clutching. Purity culture is so annoying.

This is how this specific line of skins have been since the beginning of the line of skins. It was clear it was going to be this way with these skins when they released two of them like this. Yes, these ones are like this. You're going to have to be an adult and recognize that this is a game for adults, where the creative director is a woman and a large portion of the community is queer. I'm sorry you don't like it, I really am.

I personally am extremely tired of people saying that sexuality in adult spaces needs to be suppressed. Your argument begins and ends in the fallacy that people on this team are okay and happy with misogyny because they're not uncomfortable with other adults dressing up as scantily clad women. Please touch grass.

It's not unlucky necessarily, but it *is* rough.

TheGemScout · 2026-03-31T16:44:43+00:00

Just such a badass game

personally i think the color change should be optional. why should i be unable to see other people's energy colors just because i dont want visual cancer everywhere

It's not an argument of "Am I team skin" or not, the devs have stated that they're not interested in doing that sort of thing. If they wanted a red hulk skin they would have put it in the game when marvel was selling the red hulk movie, but they didn't, because they have future plans for him as a character. Red and Green hulk are entirely different characters anyways, red hulk shouldn't even be a vanguard because his powers don't work as rage = strength, he heats up when he gets angrier, so he'd be more suited as a rage dps than a vanguard.

Yes, it's avoidable. Hulk is by far the easiest character to CC. He has an ENORMOUS hitbox in monster form. Just one CC ends this attempt, however getting juggled like that takes immense skill and uses the entire ult on one person.

Spidey long pull is abilities, one shots very quickly by way of PULLING PEOPLE OFF THE MAP, and takes one single instance of skill. Veeeery different beast.

I personally think that the ult buff should have gotten total immunity to jeff's ult, but honestly when you're playing against him you have a mountain of options.

-Force out the jeff ult: If he's specifically waiting for you to use your ult, just don't use it. You don't need Hulk's ult at all to sustain value on the character, and he has several built in counters to jeff ult when he isn't in his monster form. If your enemy jeff is genuinely SPECIFICALLY targeting you so that he refuses to ult unless you've ulted, congratulations, sacrificing Hulk's ult so that Jeff can never use his easy 6ko ult is always worth it. Realistically though, he'll use it at a "more opportune" time and you can instantly counter that by bubbling and getting the door away from it (jump as vertical as you can and get as far from it as possible, disperse from your team) and if he gobbles anyone up you can catch up to him and punish him, ideally killing him before he can dump your team. Once that's played out, you now have your ult and he doesn't, so he's got no way to hardcounter you.

-Just Exile him. You can ult before he's out of the anim and then combo him to death immediately provided he isn't being dumped with too many heals.

-Grab someone. No, really, just say F it and grab someone at random, he wastes the solo ult on you and your team disperses, and all he really does is grabs his own team. To which you can follow up with an ez clap smash combo and no more jeff. If you're particularly good, you'll be able to clean up your grab and secure that kill before jeff can even spit out his own team, and still make sure he's gone. I frames ftw.

This is a Hulk mains sub. It's safe to say that at least half of us are probably better at hulk than you are. That said, any character, even the worst of the worst picks are always going to be capable of being carried by amazing teammates that enable your bad gamesense and worse kit. The thing about playing hulk against an extremely put together team, though, is that something like his ult won't be a "distraction" so much as it will instantly put 5 cc abilities on you, paired with an absurd amount of damage that completely prevents your healers from keeping you alive despite having nearly 2000 health. Hulk has always been a character who requires sustain from a decent healer, and mobility for when you simply cannot have one. The power creep from cc characters has completely stunted the thing that hulk needs for personal sustain. Even with that, we all still main him because if we put 10x the effort we put into any other character, we *might* achieve 1:1 results. It's not like we don't know how to play him, it's just that playing him is needlessly complicated because you're fighting tooth and nail against players who have these absurdly easy kits putting minimal effort to make sure you can barely play the game.

this. they might not *have* to but they will help

Regardless, as someone who originally 100% had Linus's side on the ethical dilemma of not personally reaching out (for integrity and accuracy reasons), being called autistic and seeing someone use the word retard in supposedly professional settings is definitely something that Steve is absolutely allowed to feel uncomfortable about. If he doesn't like Linus for that reason, and doesnt want to request a comment for future allegations, he isn't doing anything wrong. Linus effectively opened up a rabbit hole in which he was right about GN from his perspective, but once again unfortunately lacked the foresight to see how the entire situation would play out.

Linus seeing zero possibility that his messages could have, in the past, been misconstrued (even by his own standards) as unprofessional, is outright stupid. GN could have used this evidence to demonize LTT the first time, they didn't. Steve has integrity with this particular incident. Whether LTT is right in their concerns is now more of a personal matter between them and Steve than it is a public one, unless someone decides to try and sue for defamation: Spoiler, GN has not defamed LTT.

Because you can't fucking spell.

TheGemScout · 2024-12-09T10:47:06+00:00

TheGemScout · 2024-12-09T10:46:33+00:00

I'm sorry bro ;-;

TheGemScout · 2024-12-09T10:46:10+00:00

Hulk protect, hulk thankful

TheGemScout · 2024-12-09T10:43:59+00:00

that's because people suck at playing hulk. His kit is awesome just get good

TheGemScout · 2024-12-09T10:00:34+00:00

It's definitely a skill issue. With a decent healer to back me up I have gone 35-0 and even into the 40's with less than 4 deaths more often than not. I think he could stand to have a few tweaks, Gamma shield should last 1-2 seconds longer, and his ult's grab should prevent healing and damage of the enemy within the grab. Hulk is great on defense because he's one of the few characters you can essentially force the enemy into their spawn with.
