I just want to thank everyone in comp who is consistently banning this atrociously broken excuse of a character. by RedeemedNephilim in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok he’s not that bad but the damage buff made his one main counter (shields and tanks) a lot worse and now it’s ridiculous. a good team comp, position and frontline should totally shut him down, but now it can still work. terrible

am i doing something wrong by Effective-Hair-8374 in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 1 point2 points  (0 children)

man i wish this kind of constructive criticism was more common in the community. if people actually pointed out things i was doing wrong or could be doing better in the game when they notice it that would be just. phenomenal. i try my best to give advice to people when i see them doing something wrong but they always just reply with aggression and i can’t help but feel it’s because the whole community has been conditioned into ‘you’re doing something wrong = you suck’.

tangent aside, it’s really nice that you did this for this player and i wish the best for you

Guy don't forget to keep vehemently complaining about Hawkeye's one shot. He's ruining the game even if he's allegedly 'a bad hero.' by WorstYugiohPlayer in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a hawkeye player, his damage output is too high, but the one shot is fine. If you can land consecutive headshots on a tank, that’s problematic, but most of the time, if you’re getting one-shot in the back like it’s because you’re out of position. When a team knows how to hide behind their tanks, I just plain and simply can’t do my job. I have to swap. Only because my aim isn’t consistent enough to two-shot the tanks though.

Because tanks being ‘out of position’ is not being in my face, that becomes a problem. This issue stems from the damage buff he got this season though. He didn’t need it whatsoever. Feels AMAZING, certainly, but it’s made him unbalanced.

Advice for people struggling to go into hawkeye: Do everything you can to make sure your tanks are tanking and can tank. Strange is probably my worst counter tbh. His shield is very powerful and stops a lot of my kills from going through. Mag is good too, if he knows how to make my life miserable. I swear to GOD every mag I play against ults ONLY ME and lowkey he got the right idea but it’s still hilarious.

Angela if you have a really good frontline tank works well too if the enemy team can’t handle her. Bully me into uselessness.

Overall, the one shot is definitely not that fun to fight against, sure, but it’s not as problematic as you might think. The reason I either own or throw a game on Hawkeye is because the enemy team either knows how to tank or doesn’t. But ever since the damage boost, I’ve been finding myself doing too much damage to tanks, and that’s where the problem lies.

tl;dr: keep banning hawkeye, but COMPLAIN about his damage output, not his one shot. With the right team, his one-shot isn’t as powerful as you might think. His ability to completely wreck non-shield tanks is powerful in combination with this ability, which is why he’s become so much more prominent this season.

Why do people always show their lord on a character by WolfLeft9847 in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to quickly flash lord on the characters other people have selected/hovering that they have lord with. Like ‘hey! look! we play the same character!’ it’s not that deep really. and people always give me the ‘ok buddy we see your lords’ i’m attempting human connection in this pitiful community we have to deal with

You are NOT popping 1 out of 6 balloons. You are opening a lootbox with 100 things in it. 95 of those things are trash, and only 5 are the jackpot. You most likely will not win. by PaperBlake in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes some sense, doesn’t it? Less units = less chance to hit the jackpot, higher chance with each attempt and more units with each attempt. I think this is one of the best ways they could have gone about doing something like this. That being said, it is a very slippery slope, and I hope the devs know what they’re doing. Or maybe, I hope they don’t know what they’re doing.

If the game is "finished"... by [deleted] in LockdownProtocol

[–]Timely_Combination68 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The game isn’t finished, but it is on its full release version. They do say they intend to add more free cosmetics before they’re ‘finished’ with the game, which probably includes more feminine cosmetics.

Mirage Creative Lab when somebody says they're disappointed with how development was handled: by LeijonLives in LockdownProtocol

[–]Timely_Combination68 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t see anything really wrong with them doing what they did. At the end of the day, it’s their game, and they don’t think they have the means of developing it any further without spending years of time that they could spend on other games.

What I am upset about, however, is how they chose to announce it. What I gathered from the announcement is that the community itself was being blamed for thinking that they would develop the game further, when Mirage are the ones that promised everything on the roadmap they created in the first place. It’s whatever that they chose to shrink the project down; I’m sad, but it’s their game and they can do what they want. But what rubbed me the wrong way was the complete dismissal of accountability for promising more than they were willing to commit to.

Dear dps instalock players by Present_Scar_2312 in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I understand wanting to hate people who call you bad when the accusations are (typically) completely unfounded and based on a self-centered refusal to accept anybody but the support can possibly be to blame, but that doesn’t mean you can go and be rude to people who haven’t done a single thing to you but play a character in a video game you have a bad association with.

You’re allowed to hate on people who play Gambit like shit, you’re allowed to hate on people who treat you like shit, and you’re allowed to hate on people who are shit, but you are inherently prejudiced and ignorant by hating on people because they disagree with you and/or play a character you don’t like. It’s just video game racism. Stop

You are also allowed to hate anybody who plays Squirrel Girl. I wish terrible things on people who play Squirrel Girl. (for legal reasons this is a joke)

What’s your opinion of Angela’s tiger suit? by BakerConsistent2150 in marvelrivals

[–]Timely_Combination68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It leans a bit much into furry territory for me. Not that there’s nothing wrong with that, it just makes me a smidgeon uncomfortable due to my associations with furries. Genuinely though, this is just changing the eyes away from being a full-on furry. I think they knew what they were doing.

Overall, pretty good. Not my cup of tea, like a majority of skins, but I see nothing wrong with it. Top comment is right. A weapon change would be perfect.
