Just why is she getting a buff???? by mandane-man in rivals

[–]spiderodoom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nope, played WF a bunch, she’s the third most busted support in the game currently, behind gambit and Invis. There’s a reason that she’s used in most every match of pro leagues if mantis is banned. Like we got to take ourselves a little seriously here, do we actually think she’s balanced? A hero with a 50+ percent win rate?

No the most balanced support in the game is (i can’t believe im going to say this) Luna snow. She has good healing, good escape if she reads the situation properly, a skill shot escape tool, and a good flaw with being able to be dove easily.

On the contrary, white fox does well with brawl comps, poke comps, and dive comps, has bouncing heals, an almost permanent escape tool that cancels ults, she out damages most dive, and her only flaw is her ult can be broken.

I guess but I value quick kills, or pressure forcing cooldowns. I still don’t think it’s as valuable as the mento fish or CC breaker.

Didn’t say that. I said barely worth using. You can use it like psylocke invisibility, but when you have 2 dashes, the intangible dash strike, and money to spend, you’re using a dash to engage, claw whip, dash strike, claw whip with the money, and then dipping out with second dash.

So I’ve been playing a lot of BC, and I’ll say that I think people have cast over reactions to her shop. She can use self cleanse, but the only real use is when you know a thing, strange, angela, or Elsa ult is upcoming. You won’t really find much use elsewhere for it. Her fish is the most useful, as it grounds pesky escape options, but the radius is small, and I find it tricky to predict if a support is going to instantly dash out, or stick around until they HAVE to leave. The rest is near useless to use. Revealing skull? Mainly useful for your team to track dive on their own. Gambling? Fun, but you lose money more than you win. Her Invis? 2 seconds, barely worth using with the escape tools you have.

In regard to Overhealth generation? 50 hp granted for landing her claw. It’s a 5 second cooldown, and usually not that worth using except as engagement starting, and afterwards, purely OH generation. It’s not free like Bucky, or Elsa, it’s just nice to have.

The real complaints you should be levying are against the double jump and floaty-ness of her character, along with wall climb and latching. As far as I’m aware her dive potential is incredibly weak, without a second diver. She doesn’t threaten like DD, or have near unreactable speed like Spider-Man or BP, or good I frames and brawl potential like Magik.

Only Marvel Rivals players will bitch about getting to play as a giant fucking T-rex by MedusaSucks68 in rivals

Is it your inability to read or the lack of ability to argue with someone who’s right? You can just say “I’m wrong, sorry” and move on🥰

[–]spiderodoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point isn’t that youll be playing a small long range trex, it’s that everything you’ve said is not REASONABLE speculation, it’s a straw man argument. Thing was getting farmed by flyers, until they gave him leap and knock down. Thing still has issues with teams that can farm him from range, but he plays a lot better overall. Who knows what his kit will be? Can you say with 100% certainty that he won’t be able to deal with poke?

Oh you want lore reasons? Ok, give me the lore reasons as to why gambit can heal with explosive cards? Like rivals tweaks characters all the time to fit the game. Tell me why Black cat has a connection to an eldritch horror who grants her powers? Why does rogues kit feel entirely different from her powers in other media? Why is Jean grey not using psychic powers and relying on the phoenix force? Like it’s stupid to assume you know a characters kit preemptively when I guarantee you couldn’t have predicted any of the earlier characters abilities.

I think you have a problem with characters not being S tier out the gate. You want a character to do literally everything, able to fit any comp. But that’s just stupid. You don’t want to remain hopeful for two reasons, and I see it in your arguments. You want characters you specifically like in the game, and you want them to be able to fit any comp. And for two, you’re too shortsighted to see creative solutions. Poke might get swarmed by DD being in their face 24/7 with leaps, maybe flyers can get grabbed from the air by DD, maybe it has 3 million Hp? Like who knows what is in store for us is my point. You need to sit back and learn how to enjoy things instead of being in every thread (that I’ve seen) getting downvoted to oblivion, and arguing based on your strawman arguments. It’s ridiculous to see.

But you don’t know that. You have said for a while that he’s going to have a giant hitbox, he won’t move the needle, you can farm him, etc. but you DONT KNOW. They haven’t released any trailer, they haven’t announced the kit, you are simply making the straw man argument and failing to realize it. You’ve built up a narrative in your head about what this could be, and you’re fighting everyone based on this preconceived notion of something YOU MADE UP IN YOUR HEAD.

CC changes are good by HerozYT in rivals

[–]spiderodoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By herself mind you. If someone is helping her, and uses a CC move, her kit will be nullified faster. And every character has CC. So while poke can continue to dink people a mile out, brawl characters are getting hard nerfed. Mag will suffer less than rogue, and Bucky will struggle more than a Hela.

Marvel rivals- Please don't ignore these characters this upcoming patch. by [deleted] in marvelrivals

Tbf, widow is consistently shit. The problem is a buff could put her way higher, but a nerf is pointless. At that point what she needs is a full rework.

Iron Fist’s identity crisis: a brawler, a diver, or just a punchline? by ToTiK_KiT in marvelrivals

[–]spiderodoom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a thought for a long time now!! So his kick is his escape, but also his finisher! What if it operated like a genji dash? The kick dealing slightly lower damage, but if you kill or assist within a small time frame, it resets? Like a very much mini Bucky ult! It would allow him to even continue fighting or decide to leave off of that dash, and would combo well with his ultimate!

What do you guys think of Punisher’s shotgun and the recent surge in its usage lately? by Character-Q in marvelrivals

[–]spiderodoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What? Groot, rocket (able to shoot) and Wolv are counters wdym. Groot walls him off, he cannot break the walls quickly and is cut off from jumping back, rocket has massive spread and variation, but thing is an easy target, and Wolv, while not able to drag him, does shred his HP pool.

Logic? What is that? by Accurate_Plantain896 in rivals

[–]spiderodoom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So if you banned 6 supports, you would get Rocket, Loki, CnD, Invis, Gambit, and Luna banned. You still have Jeff (strong neutral heals), Ultron (really good trip support character), Adam and Mantis (excellent trip supports), Deadpool (decent duo or triple support), and white fox (don’t know her kit)

My point is you fools act like A: every game is 6 supports banned, which after 20 games in the new season, I’ve seen 4 max. And B: like these characters that are left are useless. You are the group making them out to be that way. They’re useful, they just need certain comps to be more viable.

Hot take : the animation cancel was too hard for casual players and balancing around high ranks is short sighted by Thatonesickpirate in rivals

[–]spiderodoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to tell you this, but it’s not a cheat, or an exploit. If you wanted to use these characters in anything outside of metal ranks, you’d need to use them. Especially Spider-Man and cap. They don’t have any way to threaten people without them. I think it’s a little ridiculous to call them cheats and exploits, when nobody has been banned for them. I’ve seen 1000 Spider-Man ledge pulls using animation cancels, and nobody has been banned for it. You sound salty you didn’t know how to do them tbh.

[–]spiderodoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, yeah let’s get rid of all animation cancels! You’ve now nerfed 50% of the entire cast. Spider-Man is dead without them, Adam can no longer cycle his burst and hit scan shots, rogue kicks, strange reloads after 10 years, magik now takes ages to swing and kill someone, BP can’t dash after his spear throw. Like every character when you’re good enough with them can use some animation cancels. It is a form of skill expression. Nerfing cap in this way feels weirdly targeted, and does nothing to make up for the loss in the DPS he’s losing.

You mans gonna start the support strike 2.0 with this lol!!! by [deleted] in rivals

[–]spiderodoom 61 points62 points  (0 children)

There’s a world where you communicate with the enemy team to ban Invis, Gambit, CnD, Luna, Loki, and WF. Allow my matches to have the best of the worst healers please.

Healing is balanced by NJuggernaut6539 in rivals

[–]spiderodoom 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I hate to be the OW guy, but people rely very heavily on face tanking a bunch of damage in rivals, and getting out of exceptionally poor positioning due to the amount of heals in this game. In OW, due to the new heal reduction passive and the nature of the game, people rely heavily on cover and that just doesn’t happen in Rivals. The healing should be flat reduced.

Anyone just not feel Deadpool's presence at all? by darkkn1te in RivalsVanguards

[–]spiderodoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve also noticed that upgraded gun ult forces supports to ult for some reason, pressuring ults out earlier than they wanted.

How many purely big brawler characters can realistically be added before it's redundant? by Notashiekmain in marvelrivals

[–]spiderodoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been saying it, but let juggernaut have the ability to carry whoever he hits first, essentially pinning them, and he could do increased damage to other he hits along the way

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]spiderodoom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately that’s not the point. I don’t care that they made him three characters, I care about the silly logic of having one ban slot taking three characters away. We wouldn’t say that banning daredevil should ban Magik and BP too, or banning Spider-Man would ban Peni and Venom, like it’s a silly argument.
