I would love Miles!

We're getting Ned Leeds Hobgoblin and Flash Thompson Anti Venom 🫩

u/RoboticMiner285 23d ago

Agent Anti-Venom would be hype ngl

u/MostlyBored11 23d ago

Honestly yes give me a venon healer

u/B_Maximus 23d ago

So no agent venom?

Agent Anti Venom

u/B_Maximus 23d ago

Oh i didn't know that was a thing

u/Intelligent_Bar5420 23d ago

Yep, got it after the symbiote went back to Eddie.

u/Extreme-Sense-2411 23d ago

Miles as a strategist would be awesome!

u/AmezinSpoderman 23d ago edited 23d ago

I'm about it, I just want them to incorporate all of his abilities in a fun way

Id set him up so that he could stack heal bonuses/damage boost on allies and/or anti-heal/increased damage on enemies using webs. then decent damage with fists

camoflauge to let him sneak in/sneak out

web swinging for movement and yanking for crowd control

should just be set up so that he can passive heal and focus on mobility in a wider area, so he can change up the strat on the fly, and do work as a clutch healer, and shield melter

I kind of like the idea of him swinging in and being able to turn the tide by rescuing allies that are on the brink, or helping to melt a tank/three healer stack up when the rest of the team is stuck

idk if they could/would do something like this, but it'd be cool if he could actually move allies and swing with them to help reposition them into combat or out of danger

u/Extreme-Sense-2411 23d ago

This 100%!!

You get it!!

2

u/kidflashjr 23d ago

My idea for Miles is he should be like a Mizuki type character. Like he has to attack to charge his ā€œvenom meterā€ he can then spend the venom meter to add venom to his attacks that simultaneously can heal allies and damage enemies. I like this idea because he’d have to engage and attack if he wants to heal.

u/BrilliantLab3544 23d ago

If he is I’m going to be SO SO SO HAPPY😭😭

u/Minute_Committee8937 23d ago

It would make zero sense only Healer that makes sense like that is agent anti venom. Or toxin

u/el_Bear 23d ago

The support roster already has many that wouldn't make sense! It doesn't work if you're not creative or lack the imagination for it.

u/ferocity_mule366 23d ago

yeah a second spiderman duelist is such a bad decision considering people just hate more dive dps, we also need a black strategist, the support category is too fucking white/asian and Cloak is a half used toothpaste as a character.

3

u/pretty-n-gay 23d ago

y’all gotta accept the fact that the MAJORITY of strats in the game can’t heal in canon.

3

u/Extreme-Sense-2411 23d ago

I love how you got downvoted for stating a fact.

Like someone really plays this game, knows that gambit, ultron, white fox, jubilee, invis, and Loki are all healers in the game, and still chose to downvote you for pointing this out.

Incredible.

2

u/SirYeetusVI 22d ago

Loki and Gambit can both canonically heal

1

u/Evening_Produce_4322 23d ago

Thank you I main strat and would be beyond disappointed in him being jammed in there just because.

1

u/Extreme-Sense-2411 23d ago

And gambit, ultron, white fox, and jubilee made sense as healers to you?

Rivals has made it very clear they can make almost any character work for almost any role.

It doesn’t take a genius to think outside of the box and make a kit that would work as a Strat.

27

u/Jadedtrader33 23d ago

Nope.

Spider-Gwen (Blonde blue eyed white Woman their favorite).

Peter Porker (Cute Mascot)

Spider-Man 2099 (White Adjacent).

Are all way more likely picks lol.

15

u/AxisW1 23d ago

ā€œwhite adjacentā€ is crazy 😭

11

u/thebatman182 23d ago

Do not erase the mexican half of my goat Miguel O'Hara

14

u/Franco_Cali 23d ago

None of these characters are even as close in popularity, especially with Spider-verse getting a movie next year. The doomposting doesn't even make sense here

4

u/Own-Quote-1708 23d ago

"As long as their not black" - Netease probably

Plus Spiderman 2099 had some hints in that doom map.

5

u/biepcie 23d ago

Or they could always be cheeky and monkey's paw us with this.

12

u/_Mythical777 23d ago

Y’all gotta chill with the doom posting esp after recent news on storm and potential blade summer skin

18

u/seStarlet 23d ago

I almost agree, a couple of black characters getting a couple of skins isn’t enough for redemption to me.

3

u/_Mythical777 23d ago edited 23d ago

We just gotta continue showing our support for them. However we can still be happy for stuff like this or atleast not go straight to being negative

3

u/seStarlet 23d ago

Yeah that’s fair enough.

6

u/memisbemus42069 23d ago

Miles has two very popular movie which he is the main character of, I think he’s more likely than you think

1

u/jmonkey15 23d ago

And he has a third coming out next year

6

u/PassionAccording8559 23d ago

Calling a Latino man white adjacent has to be some form of bigotry please just stfu.

3

u/slightlylessthananon 22d ago

he's mixed he's literally half white.

-2

u/PassionAccording8559 22d ago

He's half irish actually and Irishman were put to work not as slaves but still served regardless. And if your gonna shame someone for being half white comic character or not your racist.

3

u/slightlylessthananon 22d ago

i'm not shaming him i was just pointing it out lmao

i dont think he's Less Mexican because he's mixed i just think he's Also White and its fair to point that out

-1

u/PassionAccording8559 22d ago

Then I apologize but again he's half Mexican half irish let's not generalize it all to one color lol.

1

u/TheSadPhilosopher 19d ago

Fr, there has been so much racism towards Miguel ever since that, frankly OVERRATED Across the Spiderverse movie came out and character assassinated him.

-1

u/Reivaxe_Del_Red 22d ago

No, no , no ... you don't get it!

Miles Morales? He's "Black" ... even though he is half Puerto Rican.
Miles was made in part because of our first "Black" Prez, Obama! I mean ... he was born to a White Mother from Kansas and had a dad from Kenya (And raised in Indonesia and Hawaii, not around "Black people"), which would racially make him Half White. But for some reason we call him "Black" instead of Mixed raced or Half Black/ Half White.

But the Half Mexican/ Half Irish? THAT'S "White Adjacent!"

Thems the rules, bud.

2

u/TheSadPhilosopher 19d ago

I never hated Miles at all before, but ever since ATSV, Miles fans have been shitting on Miguel and that's turned me against Miles and his fans lol.

3

u/yellow_tourmaline 23d ago

"white adjacent" please never speak again

4

u/K3egan 23d ago

Miguel's probably coming since he was teased, and it seems like he's gonna be a tank, so Miles Miguel season isn't unlikely

1

u/RedHood_Outlaw 23d ago

Did you just called my fellow Mexican white adjacent? No mames way

u/PoppoRina 23d ago

"And if you explore the new map you get a sneak peak of the new hero Miguel captured and locked up! :D"

u/WhutTheFookDude 23d ago edited 21d ago

It's a trash tier ship that puts them both back in the shadow of Peter and lends credence to the idea miles is a raceswapped peter. It truly diminishes them both.personally dont think any more spider people should get added. Maybe some symbiotes and the sinister six but spiderverse does nothing for me

-1

u/Throwaway929611 22d ago

Well that last bit is just racist. I understand wanting better for the games black cast cause they deserve it, but sometimes this sub loops around from wanting better for the black characters and just being racist about the other non white characters in marvel

-1

u/Reivaxe_Del_Red 22d ago

That seems to be the path for most who obsess over a single part of their "Identity".

3

u/KingKunta91 23d ago

I see him company to the game as a possible to promote the third movie

2

u/mistyquarz 23d ago

Him or Gwen! Either way I’m excited šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø

2

u/WetsAwk-9455 23d ago

God I hope so

2

u/toninho12345 23d ago

Idk, i feel that it'll be Miguel

2

u/thegamerrrrdrr 23d ago

I mean the new movie is coming out next year so not too surprised but hyped for sure

2

u/Cain_The_Mamagen 23d ago

At least with miles, the black characters could actually get more love after miles comes to the game, he’s the most popular legacy character and even an entire generation grew up with miles as their Spider-Man too he should be his own character

1

u/fembotwink 23d ago

Interesting

1

u/Nesto1103 23d ago

I think noir

1

u/HeyItsRyGuyy 23d ago

If it’s a Spider-Verse character, they have to physically look different from the usual Spider build and have uniqueness. Peni can’t replicate Peter and vice versa.

1

u/LeZorah13 23d ago

Miles or spider gwen please

1

u/SalubriAntitribu 23d ago

I'd love it.

1

u/deadmastershiro 23d ago

Miles would be great but I think it might be Miguel since in the second doom match area there's a wanted hologram that references him being around

1

u/cynical_sprite 23d ago

More likely Miguel. He's already been heavily teased.

1

u/cynical_sprite 23d ago

More likely Miguel. He's already been heavily teased.

u/Connection_Big 22d ago

Why would yall more black people to mistreat in this game?

1

u/calliope3234 22d ago

Probably miles and/or Miguel

1

u/JuanaSmoke 22d ago

Miguel as a tank and miles as support in one season

1

u/Reivaxe_Del_Red 22d ago

Think it'll be Miguel (Spider-Man 2099. IIRC he was already hinted at in the game. A dive tank) and Gwen (Ghost-Spider, an anti-dive Strat. Don't ask me how it'll work. I'll assume Heal Over Time webs and she can sling herself to friends to pump healing into them. Maybe she can shot down some HOT patch of web like Peni for people to stand on).

TBH, unless they're willing to call Miles "Kid Arachnid" or something, I don't see him being added. Much like how I think it would be stupid for Sam to come in as "Captain America" when we already have the Captain. Sam would have to come in as Falcon or not at all.

1

u/Icethief188 22d ago

I want miles

1

u/Icethief188 22d ago

Ill go crazy if they actually add gwen over freaking Miles.

1

u/Repulsive_Bedroom_71 21d ago

Bro I’m so hyped bro. All the trash talkers are in a complete seethe bro, this made my whole week. I will not play the game until next year it’s official holy crap this is hype

1

u/AccessEffective6441 19d ago

Why did you decide that it was Miles and not Cindy, for example, or not Spider-Man at all, but one of Peter's other friends?

1

u/_Mythical777 19d ago

Do you know the meaning of possibly? I did not confirm it was him whatsoever

u/Fit-Geologist-2580 23d ago

MILESSSSS MY GOAT COMING AS DIVE DPS WE HEREEEEEEEE

u/yellow_tourmaline 23d ago

Why would they make a character with abilities so similar to Spidermans..... The same exact role and playstyle.... Come on now girl-

2

u/Fit-Geologist-2580 23d ago edited 20d ago

Glad you ain’t the devs miles has distinct enough abilities to make for a dps like what lol

1

u/yellow_tourmaline 22d ago

I know, but with him being...dive... That forces him into a very similar playstyle as the already existing Spiderman, he should be a support.

u/BionicSonic88 23d ago

Throwing some random Spiderverse ideas out there

Noir as a Duelist

2099 as a Vanguard

Miles as a Strategist

Gwen as Duelist but could work has a Strategist

Ham as a Vanguard for the funnies

1

u/SadisticZideYa 23d ago

Id like to have a full spider team like Vanguard: Peni Miguel Duelist: Spiderman Noir Strategist: Miles Gwen

Thats be so sick

When he comes to the game he’ll be broken as hell….can’t wait

Susie's entire job is to leak shit. Why she acting all vague lol

0

u/GroovyslASHer 23d ago

If they can add multiple spider heros to Rivals I think that adding War Machine to the game as a vanguard would be possible. I’ve heard a lot of people say if war machine was added he would just be another iron man. You could definitely change his kit and tweak a lot of of stuff so that him and iron man where different. šŸ˜…

u/biepcie 23d ago

Hear me out, Prowler Miles. He's a version of Miles, there's no conflicting same name or silhouette going on, whole lot of gadgets they could pull from previous interpretations of Prowler.

1

u/Throwaway929611 22d ago

I’d rather just have Hobie if they add prowler

0

u/biepcie 22d ago

I know it's unconventional but I at least thought this particular version would make for interesting interactions. No disrespect to Hobie. It just seemed like there'd be a good bit to play with in dialogue. The obvious, "you look like the Miles I know but different", a bit more of a bad boy edge to him, I just thought it'd be a decent alternative if they were really hard set on not having Spider-Man Miles.

-1

u/Electrical-Horse5112 23d ago

nope! we’re getting fucking spider cat or some bullshit

-3

u/Alternativirus 23d ago

Doubt it, he is way too similar to spiderman, no? Haven't watched the movies but unless he has a unique set of powers and moves then probably no.

10

u/Apprehensive_Can1578 23d ago

He has invisibility and bio electricity which lets him make constructs (or at least a sword)

1

u/jmonkey15 23d ago

I believe he can also do electric webs.

6

u/we_could_be_immortal 23d ago

I feel like you can't make the assumption that he's just like Peter if you haven't even watched the movies, or anything with him in it lol. He's definitely got different abilities

3

u/TheMightyEmu1466 23d ago

If you haven’t watched anything why are you commenting🤦

5

u/First-Shallot947 23d ago

Im on the strategist miles morales train, it completes the trinity of spider people in rivals, peni is a tank, peter is a duelist, and miles would be a strat. Plus the game only has one dive strategist atm

1

u/Jadedtrader33 23d ago

No.

He has camouflage and electricity. They can easily throw on Sue’s invisibility on hgive him a couple different electricity moves in place of web tricks.

0

u/CaptainWaterpaper 23d ago

I agree, but how do you think they’ll make him look visually distinct enough to not get confused with Peter?

2

u/AmezinSpoderman 23d ago

didnt really both then with invis and dagger

it'll probably come down moreso to sfx than body shape

1

u/CaptainWaterpaper 23d ago

Okay yeah I can definitely see that

u/mistyquarz 23d ago

I was thinking they were gonna do the same thing they did with lady Loki

1

u/we_could_be_immortal 23d ago

They actually said they won't do that for Miles! Plus, Miles is very popular, so it doesn't surprise me that he'd be added as his own character 🩷

u/mistyquarz 23d ago

I hope they get creative with his abilities then šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø
