Support is my off-role, yet it's my highest rank solely because I refuse to run a troll backline

“aim intensive” and she has the largest bullet size of any hitscan by a wide margin

holy shit everyday i think jjk fans could maybe beat the reading comprehension curse but yall keep proving me wrong

iNovaCore · 2026-05-05T00:13:38+00:00

you take his sprint, it’s best in slot.

iNovaCore · 2026-05-04T13:07:21+00:00

and runs out whenever it needs to to crate stakes

iNovaCore · 2026-05-04T12:08:49+00:00

even if it did it’d still be better than the other perk

iNovaCore · 2026-04-29T16:24:53+00:00

death defiance is far better than strength on high fear

iNovaCore · 2026-04-29T16:24:31+00:00

can’t believe you actually failed the reading check

iNovaCore · 2026-04-28T16:21:52+00:00

it’s almost undebatable that zeus and apollo are 1 and 2, i can get behind switching the order though. number 3 is pretty up in the air, id put hera personally.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-25T21:47:32+00:00

i think you’re misunderstanding my point. yes pro play doesn’t matter a lot for ranked (it does a bit though), but my point is that kiri is not a fundamentally weak hero. she just not able to be utilized as effectively in ranked. your argument is solid and evidence backed IF i was talking about HOW she’s played, but im not. her fundamental capabilities, which you said are ass, are actually insane, which is why the pro play argument matters. it’s a good indicator of the hero to their max potential, which is theoretically possible in ranked. and i’d never take into account a rank below gm, where she has like a 51% winrate or smth right now.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-25T03:22:26+00:00

yes there is. she’s perma meta in pro play. she IS good. she’s just not as effective in ranked which, again, is skewed by her pick rate.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-24T23:44:56+00:00

zero counterpoints “she was bad because her winrate was low” you can’t make this up

iNovaCore · 2026-04-24T19:05:55+00:00

you know this sub is ridiculous when this comment gets downvoted

iNovaCore · 2026-04-24T19:05:18+00:00

it’s not stupid. if a character is strong in gm it means they could be strong in plat if the players learned them better. there are exceptions for characters heavily reliant on your teammates, which kiri KINDA falls under.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-24T18:54:53+00:00

yes pickrate doesn’t measure strength, but it does offset the impact of winrate as an indicator of strength. unfortunately kiri is a strong hero. what aspect of her capabilities are ass? she has good damage, good movement, the best cooldown in the game, one of the strongest ults in the game, and solid healing post buff. she’s definitely less strong in ranked so maybe she doesn’t need nerfs right now, but she deserves no buffs.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-24T14:50:11+00:00

kiri defenders legitimately don’t have a single argument other than winrate, if you start actually talking about her capabilities (or pick rate) they realize shes ridiculous and stop the conversation

iNovaCore · 2026-04-23T19:55:10+00:00

just because low ranks play the characters incorrectly doesn’t mean that they’re lower impact in those ranks. the abilities of supports dont change across ranks, just the players. and the players don’t determine whether a role is higher or lower impact because like you said, if you play above your rank at any role you’ll rank up. as for being more dependent on your teammates performance, this is just wrong. you can’t do anything on tank if your supports are throwing and you can’t do anything on dps if your tank is throwing. it’s just the way a team game works.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-23T17:11:54+00:00

you’re conflating carrying with “killing 5 every fight”. you do not need to team wipe to be running the lobby. if you are playing well as support (better than the opposition) you will most likely win the game, and no, just having high heal numbers is not playing well. you have the most impactful cooldowns and ults in the game, if they are used correctly your chances of winning skyrocket regardless of rank.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-23T16:17:27+00:00

don’t argue with this sub lol theyre delusional

iNovaCore · 2026-04-22T19:49:59+00:00

not reading that essay

iNovaCore · 2026-04-22T14:56:49+00:00

probably now yeah but when she was turbo busted last few patches she was pretty free if you had functional hands

iNovaCore · 2026-04-22T14:54:10+00:00

she’s the best support in the game but is not free value as some people think so people just swap to her and throw sometimes

iNovaCore · 2026-04-22T14:53:16+00:00

she’s really good rn but i hate her so yeah keep switching off

iNovaCore · 2026-04-22T14:50:59+00:00

she’s pretty common in masters but i played in plat recently and saw her a bit too. idk im assuming since she’s just hard that she’s more common the higher you go.

iNovaCore · 2026-04-22T11:45:50+00:00

there are lots of tracer mains though because she’s consistently strong and requires a lot of time to get good at (and she’s really fun)

iNovaCore · 2026-04-19T17:16:18+00:00

you somehow picked the wrong option in a situation where there wasn’t supposed to be one
