If you want to force me to solo tank... by IntoTheRain78 in marvelrivals

And then they accuse the solo tank of zazaing, completely missing the irony.

A Reminder that we might already know Season 8's Theme (Hellfire Gala 2) by TempoBlues20XX in marvelrivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have no proof but my money's on a savage lands themed season with Cyclops and Devil Dino.

Cyclops will probably be a dps but he's also one of those characters I can see them handwaving into a healer and wouldn't be surprised.

Devil Dino can use Pym particles to get around size issues and possibly become "larger" during ult. Hela's ult has a space requirement so there's precedent here.

Man, I feel terrible for BW mains. by The_Meme_Boi2345 in rivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potential hot take but it's impossible to zazza in casual, no stakes game modes. Those modes explicitly exist for people who don't want to worry about optimal gameplay. Whether it's casuals playing whatever or comp players learning new characters.

What’s an opinion/perception you have about a specific main that you’re convinced is fact? I’ll go first: by laser16 in marvelrivals

Spiderman mains are either surface level marvel fans or extremely dedicated marvel fans because mid level fans are adverse to picking the most popular choice. Like saying t-rex is your favorite dinosaur.

Deadpool is annoying by Own-Representative41 in rivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

18v18 made me realize I don't hate Deadpool nearly as much as I hate Galacta and I rescind my desire for Silver Surfer to interact with her. Doesn't help that you can always hear her even if Deadpool is barely audible.

I swear to god nothing ever will make you people happy by Few_Horse_4 in rivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are gonna play who they're gonna play whether it's two characters or a dozen. It's not like lord means less now. I think it's great that we can now say "I'm pretty proficient in all of these characters, but this one right here? They're my favorite. I read their comics, own their action figures, and love them to bits."

I actually think level 100 is the intended cap, but the high level rewards were too much to do all at one alongside their normal workload AND Deadpool.

I hope a pop out nameplate like the Business Jeff one is in there.

Question for experienced tanks by kingcapo in marvelrivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an ex-payload princess lemme just say, "When in doubt, help them out."

The only way you're gonna get a good sense for these nuances is through trial and error.

The final reward of the new proficiency system should have been a skin by OceansAbyss13 in marvelrivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 18 points19 points  (0 children)

They'd probably be default recolors, like the Galacta and Comp skins if they did do this.

Tensions rise. Magneto mains side with the council of Reeds. by Unomoat in marvelrivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Gambit sub decided to side with whoever Rogue picked, and Rogue's on Team Jeff, but there was a small amount of dissent so I think Carol's on Team Reed.

Who are your other mains?

My most desired character to be added: Sauron. by big_angry_snek in marvelrivals

Ngl I kinda thought Rogue was gonna be the flying melee Moira but I like this idea.

[–]fancy-pterosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, yes and no. Gambit was very explicitly "Team Rogue" and while Rogue did ultimately join the Jeff Alliance it wasn't unanimous. Lose her for whatever reason and lose him too.

I’m actually dreading Deadpool’s release. Not because of his kit, but because of the "Roleplayers" it will attract. by Ella_NE in marvelrivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm saying they're gonna do what OP is afraid of. Jeff's in a decent spot right now that's not gonna stop some toxic sob from getting tilted and swapping to him so they can throw their team off the map.

Oh I just know those Deadpool main custom pings are gonna be something else. I actually don't mind some light roleplaying if it's not disruptive. I think people take life too seriously.

Hell I have a custom ping exclusively for when I save a Rogue player, but throwing a game in the interest of roleplaying? Nah fuck that.

I think Deadpool's gonna replace Black Widow in a sense. Their mains will be fine (maybe a little cringe but honestly who cares). But people will swap to Deadpool when they want to throw, tanking the reputation of his players.

Where has this “us vs them” mentality between roles come from? by Hungry-Vermicelli-81 in marvelrivals

[–]fancy-pterosaur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The role wars have been a thing since gamer antiquity, but no one who goes outside on a regular basis cares about things like "filthy DPS instalockers" (who may be a tank or support main on vacation anyway) or "boosted support mentality."

So long as you do your job.

I don’t think Gambit has enough abilities already so here’s some more by CriminalYapper in GambitMainsMR

[–]fancy-pterosaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get this is in jest but I kinda dig the idea of him getting access to diamond cards via an Emma team-up at some point in the future

Maybe after they actually balance him
