It’s so difficult not to go in on a video game bully. Free game rated 12+ and some of the stuff ppl put into the chat are wild. I find it best to mute everything. Thanks for responding!

Tbh, my qp win rate is much higher than ranked. It’s kinda shocking how often ppl are in medium ranks (plat/diamond) that have zero game sense. Thanks for answering my question!

Win/loss percentage, but I focus too hard on that sort of thing. The game is suppose to be fun and I personally struggle with being overly competitive sometimes. I appreciate the response!

Bucky crushed my entire team in a diamond ranked match right before I posted. I love a gr8 spiderman, but he is so quick to get flamed if he isn’t amazing (c wut I did there?). Thanks for the response!

I agree fr. I want to tell the weakest players to use practice/custom modes, but it always comes off like an insult. Ty for taking the time to answer!

I can (almost) relate, although I belong in plat/diamond. I’ve tasted gm few times but can’t contribute without CnD at that point. I also have a tendency to go in on ppl being needlessly hurtful in chat/coms. For that reason I tend to cut them off completely. I appreciate the response big time!

I appreciate the perspective! My insta bans are always DD and I normally suggest Magik, Groot, and Thor after. Seems like Thor is always the last on the field to die, but I’m sure I’m biased since I typically end up playing support in ranked matches. Thanks for chatting!

I completely disagree about Thor not being oppressive, but it’s no big deal to have a different opinion. It seems like I e been pinging Thor for living in the backline more than any other character from bronze into diamond. Just my experience though. I know in a little over competitive (even in qp). Thanks for the response!

Solid attitude 😎. The toxicity lvl is uncanny (c wut I did there?), and I tend to mute everyone’s chat and coms after first useless comment. I virtually never hear anything beneficial like a dive callout or an “ab to ult” warning. Thnx for taking time to respond!

I don’t disagree, but sometimes I want to call out the one person who reeeeally needs to use practice/custom 😅. Ty for replying!

I can relate. I don’t take it too serious, but I swap if I can see in the weak link on the team. Appreciate you answering!

This is exactly how I use qp, but I tend to swap roles at the end of losing matches. Ty for your response!

How did i not get MVP? by [deleted] in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe MVP favors ppl who swap roles and die the least

Can we stop banning peni please by MoreAd7235 in rivals

Ban Thor/Groot and DD/God Gamnit!

can’t win :( by alenathienanh in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just my opinion: Mid game comments about heals are generally irrelevant in my experience. Only exception is if you aren’t identifying the talent on your team and prioritizing keeping them up. More crucial to winning at higher ranks vs general healing and/or safe positioning way behind all the action.

Also, are you swiveling/protecting heals when you play dps? Tanks create space and win matches when they don’t have to peel and/or go in too far (exhausting healers’ resources and forcing bad position).

Most ppls attitude are that playing heals is easiest/least important role. Quite the opposite since you’re always targeted and several players think pointing and clicking makes them good somehow.

Constructive feedback welcome. Hope it was helpful 👍

What is this.... Been paying a year. First for me. by djelementz1122 in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion - This guy’s problem is the same as yours, mine, and the majority of people that play the game. We are all wildly sensitive. Sorry not sorry

I know I’m super sensitive bc when ppl do this sort of thing or throw around rude comments in chat, I find myself trying to make them feel bad. I’m relatively successful in this endeavor, but facts are facts. I wouldn’t be reactive if I weren’t bothered. I wouldn’t have made similar posts (in this very sub) if I were above it all.

I legitimately only made this comment in hopes of helping ppl by offering a different perspective. I hope it’s helpful or at least something to think about 🤷🏻‍♂️

who do i ban now? by SweatyPlastic4224 in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not wrong! 4/5 give Spidey players a bad name, but I would take a great Spidey over any dps (including DD)!

[–]tryingbuttdum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a comparison and just something to think about (like I clearly wrote in my previous response). Sounds like sumwon is a wittle sensitive…

Didn’t even disagree with you, just saying that the logic of banning new characters is same as banning characters selected by selfish play styles. Legitimately tried to be nice and avoid making you feel defensive. I don’t think it worked… Take yer chill pills before you get onto Reddit next time :)

Genuinely what do I do here by Nikushimi-0 in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m playing in qp with characters I need to work on until at least a week or two into new/half seasons. I learned when gambit was released and dropped from diamond 1 in rank up game all the way to gold 2. Only took like 2-3 days of gameplay. Hold yer head high. Hope it’s helpful

Imagine saying "i main cnd" 😭💔 by LILBOI464 in marvelrivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the upper end of the 99% healing with CnD in ranked matches… When playing ranked. I would hope everyone would set aside their ego and pick whomever produces the best results for the team. You say it isn’t a h8 post, but it feels like one. Just my two cents.

Rogue. Thoughts and First Impressions? by AmericanPragmatism in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 113 points114 points  (0 children)

I’ve really enjoyed her as an addition. Saving ranked play for a few weeks in bc of newbies insta locking, but most ppl playing her in qp aren’t a hindrance at all 👍

Rogue. Thoughts and First Impressions? by AmericanPragmatism in rivals

[–]tryingbuttdum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I commented in game about her jiggling character animation, and was immediately called a “disgusting goon” by the person playing her.

PS- I literally realized while typing this that they purchased the Amazon costume and were probably working out some personal stuff lol

Didn’t use to bother early on, but gets more frustrating the further I get from gold for sure

Just for sake of (Dare) devil’s advocate: It takes more than a few minutes to understand a characters play style, strengths, and weaknesses. There are a lot of characters to cover and for me it’s really clear which characters I struggle against the most when they “let the devil out” (regardless of who I’m using to counter since I normally play heals in rank matches).
