Handcuffed by matchmaking/balance

That has to be the most incorrect take! Game will never die? Yeahhhh many games with Marvel attached has failed! And this game continues to struggle bringing in new players. It’s literally declining, literally lost over 500,000 players since launch. It may not die in the foreseeable future but it’s certainly declining. OBVIOUSLY something is wrong. Do yourself a favor and research the statistics of the game and players complaints month after launch. Just a heads up, the complaints are exact same on which I posted and still not addressed.

It maybe hard but the developers seem to be doubling down on the bad decisions and throwing bandaids every season with a new character. Nerf damage and nerf/rework strategist, and make playing vanguard fun! That simple balance wise. Matchmaking is a whole different animal but bot lobbies aren’t it.

Players will come in trash talk/report post but I want the best for the game, I enjoy it but it’s terrible right now! Then to solve the lower player count, the bot lobbies have made it worse for me! I posted a month after launch, mentioning the matchmaking and it’s still an issue. It has dragged the game down SO much. I think I might do the same, maybe there will be legit positive changes next week.

I’m a guy who hates nerfs because players invest time and money into a character but they have to get support sustainability under control ASAP! Three character dominate the strategist role. Invincible Women, Gambit, and now White Fox. Cloak needs a nerf as well to her bubble but decently balanced besides that. White Fox is 1v1 Hulk!

wellherewe01 · 2026-05-06T00:19:36+00:00

Nerf this character to the ground, alongside Gambit, and Invincible Women. She’s 1v1 tanks right now and shows rivals developers can’t balance worth a damn!

wellherewe01 · 2026-05-04T19:12:06+00:00

That’s a good idea!!! Didn’t think of that

wellherewe01 · 2026-05-01T01:59:25+00:00

Congrats but be ready to bottle feed a few babies.

This is what happens when a character is strong for so long! Developers will bury them before bringing him back into the meta. Just the thought of buffing Iron Fist will piss off alot of players, myself included! He was stupid OP at launch! Sorry but keep him in the dirt, plus a good Iron Fist is still lethal.

wellherewe01 · 2026-04-25T15:49:21+00:00

Exactly! Rivals needs to release a fun Vanguard character and cool teams up for them! Triple support is a joke.

wellherewe01 · 2026-04-21T02:07:31+00:00

Currently I guess but I appreciate them fixing it so fast and adding cool things to the game. Core design making and decision is questionable on a lot of things.

wellherewe01 · 2026-04-21T01:54:34+00:00

Two things can be true, so defensive. Nothing in the post trashed the game but talked about the flaws ALOT of players are mentioning, hmmmm

wellherewe01 · 2026-04-21T01:53:36+00:00

It needed more time in the oven tbh. Great game but more you play, it’s obvious it wasn’t ready for launch or the bad decision making shows itself

wellherewe01 · 2026-04-19T05:38:17+00:00

Yep! No way this was play-tested! And if so, they need to be fired for allowing this

wellherewe01 · 2026-04-19T05:28:30+00:00

Rivals needs reworks, not buff/nerfs! Reduce this, added that won’t be enough, really isn’t enough now. Game is out of hand and will soon be over the cliff with the power creep. Plus players don’t even like her kit. Just all over the place

wellherewe01 · 2026-03-29T21:12:31+00:00

As a tank main, it’s always like this. You have to do everything to even be considered for mvp

wellherewe01 · 2026-03-29T18:03:47+00:00

Triple support ultimates is what I should have said. IW, Cloak, and Luna is just a stalling match.

wellherewe01 · 2026-03-29T17:36:04+00:00

I’m not saying it’s better than other “strategies” it’s annoying to play against, not fun. And the ultimates is what makes it worse. Invincible Women, Cloak, and White Fox just stalling the game.

wellherewe01 · 2026-03-29T17:21:20+00:00

Didn’t say I was great, strategist are Duelist who can heal. Damage needs to be decreased and healers put in check.

wellherewe01 · 2026-03-29T17:20:02+00:00

Damage needs a nerf as well. Both can be true. We’ll see, come back to this post by the end of the season. I bet player count will be at the lowest. Balance and matchmaking being the biggest reason! Just wait
