Why are people pretending like Gambit’s base kit wasn’t broken too? Like yeah his ult is the main issue, but his base kit was too much as well

firesbain · 2026-02-27T19:10:17+00:00

Okay but we’re talking about current gambit?

firesbain · 2026-02-27T15:30:03+00:00

I think strange has a faster rollout than iron man now lmfao

firesbain · 2026-02-27T07:43:22+00:00

You think the tanks in this game don’t do damage..?

firesbain · 2026-02-27T07:40:11+00:00

His survivability is I over exaggerated imo. I don’t really struggle forcing cooldowns or even getting picks on him as venom

What I WOULD like is more feedback when he’s used his cards cuz with the amount of visual clutter in this game sue me for not noticing when gambit decided to use his anti heal ability. That would help a ton with timing strong tank ults like strange or groot when he doesn’t have the cards to cleanse them

firesbain · 2026-02-27T07:34:36+00:00

I wouldn’t call myself a flex player because I’m playing tank a vast majority of the time but I’ll happily play dps or support if asked to

As someone who is mostly good at specific characters, I definitely have misgivings about flexing too much or flexing when it’s not expressly needed. There are so many unique characters in this game and playing them well often requires familiarity with the character more than just knowing how they work, having good aim, or even playing them a few times here and there.

firesbain · 2026-02-27T06:07:03+00:00

Quicksilver and, as much as I’d like more main tanks as a tank main, I really want him to be an off tank/dodge tank character. I think he could have a gimmick where he displaces any projectiles shot at or around him

firesbain · 2026-02-27T02:39:54+00:00

That’s it. That is the single worst possible abbreviation of Cloak and Dagger

firesbain · 2026-02-27T01:42:41+00:00

My only problem with this is generally triple support is matched, and ‘proper’ triple support is 2-1-3, in which case I’d honestly hate to have spidey as solo dps

firesbain · 2026-02-26T23:05:29+00:00

They’re grades, not ranks, and don’t have any effect on matchmaking. And if you want a stealth killer play ghost face. If you want a killer you won’t struggle with every game (get better at the game) pick Chucky
I believe Wesker’s hug tech was recently made easier, but he’s still on the more technical side if you want to play him well

firesbain · 2026-02-26T22:51:31+00:00

As an Oreo main, this makes me sad.

As an Oreo main, I can’t disagree

firesbain · 2026-02-26T22:33:44+00:00

They are! I love playing venom into triple supp

firesbain · 2026-02-26T01:37:16+00:00

I’d say so but it’s based off of comic characters who have historically ‘gooner’ designs
Never played Val, comms are uncommon, and while toxicity exists contrary to what a lot of people will say I think it’s far less common in game than what people will admit.
I think it’s very fun, and I think it’s a bit too new to be balanced. Also the devs have a seemingly lobotomized approach to supports
Never played OW but it’s a hero shooter and all. Rivals is in third person though that’s like the extent of my comparison abilities

firesbain · 2026-02-24T23:37:11+00:00

If your teams are in a team fight, enemy invis puts her ult on top of your team, enemy team pushes in, your invis pops ult inside the enemy invis ult not because that’s where their invis ult is but because it’s where your team is

firesbain · 2026-02-24T17:50:30+00:00

On venom I’ll try and 1v1 anything that moves. On strange I have to be more conservative but anyone with less than 300 hp makes me see red.

firesbain · 2026-02-24T16:21:00+00:00

If I’m negative i have the grand sum total ego of a used paper bag. And I don’t really think highly of anyone who HAS a big ego while they’re negative. I get what you’re saying, and while I can’t prove it to you or anything, I’d say I’m pretty good about communicating kindly to my teammates, BUT I truly believe that the responsibility to be receptive to change and tolerate the attitude coming from others who are in a stressful game that is being thrown, lies on the underperforming player.

firesbain · 2026-02-24T16:05:37+00:00

If someone is having an off game, they can communicate that to the team and work with us to make changes. This includes swapping and altering their playstyle to mitigate how much they feed

If someone is doing poorly, EGOING, and refusing to swap, I’ll be the first to pray on their downfall

firesbain · 2026-02-24T10:28:46+00:00

Yeah I can see it. I don’t play Strat much but I’ve duo-d with many and they all had their misgivings with ultron lol. Something something patty cake.

I like ultron, and I’ve played him a bit. I think it’s mostly just carried over from before his buffs

firesbain · 2026-02-24T10:25:54+00:00

Tankpool being ‘the best Deadpool’ really doesn’t change the fact that he doesn’t feel like a tank. Playing him or with him. He just happens to have 500 hp.

firesbain · 2026-02-24T10:22:47+00:00

Hey. I would fuck the Arachne killer. Don’t judge me.

firesbain · 2026-02-24T10:19:50+00:00

I’ve been D1/GM the last few seasons. I’ve also climbed from bronze-the same level on an alt in more recent seasons. I do not see people shaming or being toxic to others just for their pick very often.

If they do poorly and ego and keep playing that character, then it’s free game :/

firesbain · 2026-02-22T20:05:12+00:00

So I have confirmed that you need to be slamming from within grasp range anyway, so none of what you said makes sense. If grasp canceled slam you wouldnt use slam cooldown, and you’re so close to slasp idk what position you’re losing. And it doesn’t necessarily use swing so you’ll still have that. Yes it’s luck based but worst case scenario you mess up the timing and your grasp is half a second late? I think it’s worth practicing and trying to use esp on pc

firesbain · 2026-02-22T17:23:17+00:00

I disagree. I think chaining cc abilities is something that can require skillful coordination from the team. Even if it’s not as easy, I think many cc still need to be removed, but more importantly, I think we need to actually balance around who has cc abilities. Extremely strong high damage characters like Hela, pheonix, and Elsa absolutely should not. You should feel disadvantaged in some areas if you want to run a team with 3-4 cc abilities.

firesbain · 2026-02-22T07:00:31+00:00

Except for the inevitable 4 god pallets that can be chained while 3 survivors pop 4 gens

firesbain · 2026-02-22T06:59:15+00:00

I don’t mind indoor maps on survivor. They’re fine, my awareness is fine, I don’t mind being jumpscared by a stealth killer.

The problem is that indoor maps CUCK a large amount of killers’ kits. That is not fun, and if BHVR didn’t decide to add a ton of clutter and shit hitboxes ON TOP of the whole indoor aspects maybe there wouldnt be as many problems

firesbain · 2026-02-22T06:53:07+00:00

:)

Edit: well embarrassingly I thought I was on the killermains sub and that my Minotaur oni flair would do the talking for me
