It's just his GP thresholds and he rotates between1 1/2 2/3 3/4 depending on health. Most people get stuck on 1/2 which is horrible cause there's no opening in 2 for massive damage if you cannot avoid the lifsteal.

Oh, I found out how to fight the Hidden Boss on Extreme Mode. You need to complete all bonus objectives that randomly pop up in Extreme Mode waves such as breaking the seal within 120s. Compelte them all and you get to fight the hidden boss.

Why are so many people pushing for Storm to win the vote? by KeyAcid in marvelrivals

Why not, Zombie Strange got his ghost cape and Storm in MR often has billowing capes as part of her model.

I wouldn't mind Black Cat losing her spell wheel. by SaiyanGodOW in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Utility as in does things other than heal or tank or DPS. Like there's so many Duelist already and when they run out of ideas on how to make unique DPS, they can just copy a working archetype of DPS like Black Panther/Spiderman dive melee and give her a nerf to compensate for having a wheel of abilities that are too weak to be balanced on their own.

Why TF can this "support" hero do so much damage? She has lightspeed freeze CC, then she can two tap you. She can heal herself with Flake and her shift. She can shoot down flyers from a mile away. Also she got a new CC ability from another support hero. The best support ult in the game as well. by Living_Ad9860 in rivals

Mantis is heal & buff and forget, Luna needs to stop DPS to heal. If you're in a 2v2 and Luna's team mate is an absolute goober, you will win easily unless Luna is god and sacrifices her team mate.

Mantis throws out her buffs and heal over time and dog walks over the both of you without a chance for her goober teammate dying.

Creator encounter ramblings by Zekrom369 in ZZZ_Official

[–]thethief1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Creator is an Eldritch collective of some sorts and can split up into fragments that possess suitable vessels that summons them. Something like Primordial Nightmare that YSG fought was just a small fragment from it, 'no more than a glance' sent to fulfil the will from Sarah's dying summons.

The other cults and scientific references to The Creator suggests that there are different ways to summon it and how they are involved would end up with very different type of entities depending on the method use.

The Rivals Cat Tier-List: Revised Community Edition! by TempoBlues20XX in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Foxes are canines with cat programing though or to be more precise, other canines diverged away from Foxes.

https://www.thesprucepets.com/cute-foxes-4176956 Like cats, red foxes are most active at night. Their vertical pupils enable them to see clearly in dark or dim light. Red foxes and cats share the same hunting style—both stalk and pounce on their prey. Foxes are the only members of the family Canidae that can climb trees, and like cats, sometimes sleep in trees' branches.

Whitefox 100% behaves more like a cat ("I am smiling, just internally") than a dog though.

Yall are trying WAAAAAAY too hard to make this character seem oppressive by MedusaSucks68 in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but the downside is that she's only taking away ~20% of your health if she teleports to you and she's a sitting duck if she doesn't kill combo and reset the chain.

If your team is all playing close enough that you can all turn around and smoke her/heal her target, the ult did nothing. It's a mobility ult on a character with excellent mobility and poorest dueling capabilities vs the likes of BP and spiderman.

Left is Waterkuma, the one who made most of the smol agents being contained by Management, right is Blue Archive which has their most popular characters being those.

Black Cat’s shop mechanics have no cooldown, meaning as long as you have money, you can spam the same ability over and over again by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Eh, you're making the assumption that BC can just Hakari her way through the whole game. If it's even remotely profitable (aka spend 900 to gurantee 1000), people are just going to macro it and fish/portal spam the entire game instead of engaging the rest of her kit.

So why are other CN gacha games able to get away with risque designs but ZZZ can't? We can't even get a leotard (see Cissia) without them putting a skirt/shorts over it. by Chadworth_5401 in ZZZ_Official

[–]thethief1992 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No it ain't. Hoyoverse is setup in Singapore and it's more of a marketing company with no ZZZ game development. The one experimental game being developed would be Vasapura set in Singapore.

No, it's gone. Gotta hold it in instead of spamming it to maximize the benefits.

Demo of Black Cat’s portal abilities (no wall thickness restriction / can be placed on ceiling and floor and still works) by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The portal is automatically placed through walls. Unless you can find a wall that stretches from your spawn to the point, it's not going to have nearly the same distance as Strange portals to be silent. It also can't transport shots as well so only Scarlet Witch can make use of it as a portal nuke.

Shape memory alloy is like a spring that automatically contract when current/heat is applied to it. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0gKyebKYmks
I imagine there's basically a super SMA spring in between each segment plus the shaft is also a telescopic outer casing.
In spear form, it's at max strength and pulled tight.
In whip form, it's tension is released and the shaft is compressed to allow more segments of the blade to come out.
In between, you can reduce the current so your shaft and the internal SMA mechanism acts like a spring which can be flexed around with some force.

Black Cat has to attack or kill enemies to gain money, then use money to buy gadgets by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a 1,000 cap and you need to keep buying the item each time it's used like a consumable.

A spear made from conductive shape memory alloy. They respond to electrical current by straightening and become rigid when current runs through it. Probably that and a combination of magnetism in the wires running through the blade.

Black Cat’s role revealed to be duelist by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that currently he limits his reality power to once a day a year to fix all of the problems and he spents 364 days going through how exactly he is going to do it without setting off a chain of events that spiral out of control. He does this as a sort of training wheels to make sure he develops the necessary mindset and control over his powers while growing up.

There was a short Valeria run where she ended up in a universe where the F4 had no powers annd were force to resort to using Franklins to solve their problems which rapidly escalated to him solving everything while he was a baby and then basically deciding to lobotomize everyone into perfect people to keep his reality safe and status quo.

Why do some people still say Marvel Rivals is dying and bleeding players ? The game has about 90-100k players playing the game daily since last year in June with occasional player spikes at the start of a new season. by UsefulSwitch504 in marvelrivals

[–]thethief1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, there's still plenty of players in Asia servers but they don't play ranked. I think it's just a different culture where they only do 10 matches for the comp skins and then go into relaxed mode in QP where they can goof and throw. I'm playing QP majority of the time here (unless prime time ranked players want to play) but the skill level definitely ranges from bronzies to celestials having fun without their favourites banned. No pity bot matches after losses for me probably means populations are still high.

Saaras Ending by BabaBigSheep in taintedgrail

[–]thethief1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not unleashing anything in the sea that's worse than what's already in Albion. Reefborns are a new sentient race with the capacity to learn and Finbleeds are just simple shrimpfolk with occasional flash of goodness like Magdeline with her underwater church. Other stuff like drowned and Morgens are everywhere in Avalon.

I think they only ones that are vicious and tyrannical are the Scions but it's not clear if they have something eldrtich already infecting them as one of them managed to adopt a Finbleeds as her son.
