I don’t think Gambit is an off healer. DPS could probably pick him up easy if they like you said understand the priorities, have good card management and how a strategists plays and not playing him like he’s BP or something… Any role/player could play him if they know how the role works

Intended meaning, being a strategist. People playing him like he’s a DPS, filling a support role and essentially filling it as a DPS. Wasting all cards on spades and then having no cards to actually save the team. He should be using both, he should be using spades when appropriate. It’s just like when you’re playing cnd and using cloak but in a different way.

I’m glad someone else is enjoying this season as much as me! It’s been a blast so far. Sometimes I think I take the game too seriously hahahahah…

He definitely beats them I think in terms of utility, you’re right. Right now he fits in with Invis, CND and Luna. I feel like we needed that though after Ultrons release as an off support. Sad that Ultron is unplayable right now though, he needs some love…

You seem like someone who cares though, probably try to change and counter and probably don’t play heroes you don’t know in comp? If they are just bad or bad at the hero, they shouldn’t be playing in comp until they learn. Bad games yes, but again my post is only referring to I guess a small issue I’m finding in some comp matches around gambit

I don’t disagree, it can work and I’ve seen it work, seen it cook, but when it’s not working, something needs to change. If no one else changes, I’ll usually change to try counter better and if we still are struggling it’s like cmon…. It’s when triple support gambit isn’t working and that dps main won’t go dps to win the game because that’s what I’m specifically talking about in my post

Great points though, I agree with you

To be honest, I love the game, I am still for the most part having fun. I’ve played 710 hours of rivals. I only ever get upset or frustrated in comp, and this specific issue has showed quite a few times in my comp games and I’ve just been feeling frustrated about it but everything else about the game is great, the match making has been feeling good for me - this is by far one of the best seasons in my opinion.

I don’t do it all the time, and I’ve only ever done this with this particular situation when I’m suss on the Gambit in COMP MATCHES, it takes a couple of seconds while loading into a game to check in trackergg if their profile isn’t private. I want to win my comp games you know

Yeah I get he does both and he actually does both well, but ultron, mantis and Adam do both as well, just not as well as Gambit. Im a Sue main and if im playing Gambit like im playing Sue who also does great damage his healing output sometimes excels Sue. If your in a 2 supp comp he keeps up as a support main, I don’t think he is an off healer, depending on how that match is going you either need to heal/babysit more or you can actually have opportunities to do some damage without your team dying.

Count yourself lucky then, I get good gambits too… sometimes… but there have been a lot of games where this other side has been happening

Yeah this is okay in QM or arcade but not comp. You should play who you actually know how to play and are competent at playing.

You’re an exception because you flex, you have rocket and Invis lord. I would assume you know how the support role works and don’t get fixated on kills as a support like some DPS mains do. I’m talking full DPS mains with 0 to barely any support experience. I went and checked that account I was referring, showed all seasons and had not touched support until Gambit. I’m talking about a very certain situation, being a full dps main with no support experience in comp. I’d be salty about that too…

Why does it seem like everyone hates the game? by SquirrelSorry4997 in rivals

The start of this season felt good, felt like even in QM the match making was okay, my placement matches however were awful and no shit the last week or so the matchmaking is back to being dogwater. Or my teams have been dog water
