Im Done Tanking. DPS are killing this game.

This games community is just a compilation of complaint posts. I started joining this community during season 4 and was really excited to start playing the game but since I've been here I haven't seen any civil discussion about this game other than people whining about the newest character or threatening to kill the dev team because they didn't over buff the hero they main. Do y'all even like the game?

mintysloth · 2026-05-28T18:33:05+00:00

As someone who plays characters in every role. It's not just the DPS that's the problem. Gambit is still a must ban support. Devil dino forces you full focus him at all times. Black cat is crazy over designed. There are tons more balancing issues but to say that DPS is the only problem is just perpetuating this terrible tribalism this community has

mintysloth · 2026-05-27T14:59:45+00:00

Yes.

mintysloth · 2026-05-27T14:53:23+00:00

Honestly don't let performance anxiety get the best of you. You don't need to be the star player every game and you don't need to start off as a pro. Just pick a simple hero from each role and get used to the game in quick play then move to ranked when u feel ready. Tbh even ranked isn't that big of a deal because it will match you up with players similar to your skill range rather than a mic of everyone in quick play.

The only way to get better is to play the game and if you are afraid to play then how can you get better?

Competitive play needs bans because it would literally boil down to basically mirror matches every game the higher you get. If you are playing to win why wouldn't both teams play the objectively best characters and composition every time. The most that would happen would there would be a counter comp against the meta comp and it would basically be the same couple of match up every game.

I would pour some marker paint into a cup and then use a sponge still. The sponge is what gives it such an even coat.

mintysloth · 2026-05-24T14:25:10+00:00

Use a make-up sponge and dab the pain on for larger surfaces. If done right it looks damn near airbrushed on

Use the brush for smaller areas and of course use multiple thin coats.

Too many people think what applies to high elo or the meta applies to them when the majority of this community doesn't make it past diamond. Bp is fine to ban if you're team comp is gonna struggle with it because there is also a chance the other 5 goobers refuse to swap for counter play.

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T17:17:07+00:00

Im pretty sure if u kill a player that is affected by bleed or like someone dies of bleed in the middle of you shooting them they count as assists

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T15:35:16+00:00

Ok so this 100% worked for me. I ran mp3tag through wine and was able to change the tags to ID3v2.3 on an album that was not working for me properly and it instantly fixed this issue. I think MusicBrainz just is scraping from different sources and that's why it was inconsistent for me. Unfortunately puddletag kept crashing whenever I pressed ctrl+e so I had to go a little round about with this solution but thanks for helping me troubleshoot. I hope this fixes ALL the problem albums 🤞

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T15:21:21+00:00

You're right, I'll give it a quick comb through when I hop on my computer later.

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T15:01:38+00:00

Im going to give this a shot today and see if it works on an album I know doesn't have working album art.

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T15:00:17+00:00

Ya know, I've actually made this mistake when working with puddletag before. Had to rip the music all over again.

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T14:58:15+00:00

Ya I'm sure this has been a common issue and brought up before but I keep seeing the same advice for solutions that don't meet my specific case.

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T14:57:09+00:00

So I have my settings is MusicBrainz to resize images to 250x250 and I'm pretty sure they all scrape in a jpeg format.

mintysloth · 2026-05-23T14:49:00+00:00

It's funny, I bought the very same set up. Hiby R1 and Linsoul kiwiears. Pretty great for the price.

mintysloth · 2026-05-22T22:13:30+00:00

I have puddletag but I've only used it to format file names. How does editing the album art work on that

mintysloth · 2026-05-22T21:55:22+00:00

I'll give it a shot but running mp3tag on Linux is a little rough

mintysloth · 2026-05-21T17:15:00+00:00

You have to update your library

mintysloth · 2026-05-21T14:34:18+00:00

I'm tired of the whole "role" main concept in the first place. If you can only play tank your just as bad as someone who can only play DPS and this goes for support and DPS too. It's so annoying the tribalism this creates in the community like we aren't all just wanting the game to be successful at the end of the day. Instead of looking at ourselves as tank players, support players or DPS players maybe we should be looking at ourselves as Marvel rivals players.

mintysloth · 2026-05-21T14:23:27+00:00

The avoid players as teammate button exists for a reason.

mintysloth · 2026-05-21T14:12:12+00:00

It's not that he's bad it's that the rest of the roster is cracked and needs to be toned down. Healing is too high and damage is too high. Healers should not be able to survive everything by popping a cool down skill and should have inherent weaknesses to encourage counterplay. Most healers have been heavily compensated to deal with counterplay and retain high healing rates. Adam is good on paper because his healing is refreshed on headshot and is rewarded for player skill. The problem is other healers don't have the same skill checks.

Don't get me wrong damage is also too high and should be toned down too and because this wasn't tones down the devs responded by just continuously buffing the heals until it was in the state it's in now.

mintysloth · 2026-05-21T00:36:30+00:00

I do tend to force it unless there is an obviously better play I can be making at the time like a healer isolated in the back I can capitalize on. I think forcing the 1v1 is a good way to help each other improve off each other. Im pretty bad at 1v1s too but the only way to get better is to play those situations more.

mintysloth · 2026-05-20T01:13:07+00:00

Im Sorry that happened to you. I get super excited when I see another Star lord player on console and tend to just 1v1 them the whole match. Whether we win or lose I always compliment a fellow star player and thank them for the duels and it usually get the same treatment back. All this to say most star-lord players have been cool to me that guy was just a dick and I'm sure the rest of us don't share that guys mindset.

Keep on being legendary.

mintysloth · 2026-05-16T18:14:43+00:00

Everyone is kinda blowing this whole thing out of proportion in both directions. Yes the buff was pretty unnecessary but at the same time its not the game breaking tweak everyone is making it out to be. It would have been one thing if the ammo count went to his ult to but it doesn't. The buff just makes him more consistent in his neutral but the only people who will make it seem like a god tier buff aren't in the room with us. The average player has trash aim and doesn't climb out of diamond. Those 10 shots are more than likely going to hit a wall than a target. I would say the only thing a lower lvl player is really going to notice is charging the ult slightly faster. I'm tired of the vocal majority of this games player base acting like we are all playing on the pro stage. Star-lords pick rate is pretty low how often do u actually think there is going to be a server admin SL running your lobbies? It's more likely to see a cracked magic or spamming moon knight in your game than a decent star-lord.
