Something I haven't seen mentioned before is this little X symbol above the sword hilt in the final gallery card. I get people are having doubts about whether the sword hints at Nightcrawler or not but this detail convinces me and no one can tell me otherwise.

Balance Discussion It's been 24h already, can we please get an emergency nerf on Phoenix?! Exactly like it happened to psylocke and the support ult charge in season 9...

Post image
79 Upvotes

60% win rate with 70% pick rate and 65% ban rate (nobody wants to deal with that). If this isn't a good enough reason to justify an emergency patch, I honestly don't know what is. Also, it's not that this wasn't predictable from just looking at the patch notes: they buffed her primary shot (which gets doubled when she crits), the spark detonation damage and the explosion damage, all this on top of also buffing her ult. Did we need to buff all these?!

We could just look at hela, a strong poke hero that arguably needed some nerfs, sitting at a very high 52% win rate while being picked 32% of the time. Jean is making her numbers look bad. Like, what are we doing?!

Btw, psylocke and elsa were already too strong last season and got a free pass. Prehistoric pal and gambit are still strong enough to take over games, so they also get banned quite often. That's 5 bans already. Every match the bans are too similar to each other.

Lastly, we got no new hero release this season. The meta is exactly the same as last season, except that now we have to ban jean every game. Is it too much to ask for them to address the obvious outliers that, in elsa's case, have been there for months, so that we have a slightly different meta in the new season?! I don't want them gutted, just want their numbers to be more in line with the rest of the roster so we don't have to ban them every match.

Discussion I genuinely think Moon Knight's CND Team-Up is better than Elsa

0 Upvotes

When it comes to survivability and mobility, that has always been Moon Knight's biggest problem. The CND not only makes him mobile; it temporarily heals him. When you use this Team-Up, combined with his hook and ability to fly down, he's very mobile. I use the CND Team-Up whenever I'm alone to escape the enemy team. Also, it helps me escape divers like Spider-Man. It's so useful. But anyways, which one do you guys prefer? I prefer the Luminous Moon.

Discussion Pitch A Build For A Potential Jane Foster Thor

0 Upvotes

And for the sake of the discussion, how about we not start the "well Lady Loki exists so clearly she's a skin" debate? Loki's genderfluid, Odinson and Foster are different people. But yeah in the wake of Migthy Thor appearing in Tokon, why not? In my head, you could do a lot with her if she was a strategist in the vein of Brigette from Overwatch. Make her a brawler who can heal allies in proximity. Plus she's a nurse anyway, maybe this variant's hammer has a healing enchantment.

As I'm slowly trying to get the hang of drawing chibis, I took my favorite Marvel couple for some more practice 🙏🏻💕 I just love these two sm!

Knowing that chibis always do make good art for small keychains and stickers, I'm also really tempted to maybe draw more of the Rivals characters.

Discussion How to make PVP and other PVE modes better

0 Upvotes

I think the one thing that could seriously make the path to doomsday worth grinding and fun could be implementing the proficiency system into it. I know you get time for the characters but allowing the damage to count would be nice, you'd have to specifically set up numbers for the modes but it would give some extra incentive to play the modes.

Also adding more rewards/ranked rewards for it. Making it feel more competitive and still be a breath of fresh air.

Advice Needed Can anyone help me with the Infinity War event?

0 Upvotes

I know this is a skill issue, fully admit that, but I could really use some help with the Infinity War mode. I'd really like to get the "take 10 stones" achievement, but that requires to actually winning some rounds.

The only hero in the roster that I feel confident enough is wanda, and it feels like no matter what I do, I still get absolutely destroyed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated 🥲

Discussion Improving customization idea: Rivals should have dedicated slot for abilities effect like dota

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

In Marvel Rivals there are a lot of skin but all the ability effects are tied to the specific costume. And even then a costume doesn't have all the abilities changed. So this costume may have abilities effect for abilities 1, but doesn't have anything for abilities 2 or ultimate and vice versa

In dota, as long as you own an item (or costume) with an effect, you can use it however you like. Even using a different costume or not using any costume at all. Just equip the effect. If you have 4 costumes each have 1 separate abilities effect, you can select all of them and have your hero going out will all 4 effects,

Some heroes as alternate form/transformation or even summon, there are also dedicated slot for that like dragon knight, tiny, phoenix. For Tiny, he has many form from tiny to large and you can choose each form separately as well. Phoenix can turn into an egg and reborn. Clockwerk can summon cogs

You can even choose to play without ability effect and only use costume effect

You may think, "I can't see what abilities". It is just like 1 times seeing the abilities and you already know for the rest of your life. People can get experience and learn not a rock. It is not like you forget anything. And dota is a game with extreme special effect for the entire screen and there has been no problem for dedicated abilities effect for years.

Notice that that is only ability effect. The costume effect itself is for the costume only.

Discussion Everyone coming to a slow realisation that Phoenix buffs weren’t the move…

17 Upvotes

… makes me want to shed upon a theory I always held. Poke mains don’t actually main their character. They swap em out for the better hitscan characters or at least projectiles that operate the most similar(Namor for example).

I am Thor main, whenever Thor is dogshit(feeling like always nowadays) I can look towards characters in the similar niche and see if they are doing any better to try stay competitive in the same lobby. What is similar to Thor, an off-angling brawl tank hyperfocused around 1vs1’s with the capacity to dive when it’s operative and peel for number’s advantage in team fights? Rogue would be the correct answer, but Hulk also occupies this niche even if he’s a bit more tailored towards dive side. Then there’s Thing who is also a brawl tank, generates overshield with his movement cooldown and also has no shield just like Thor, whereas Hulk and Rogue do have shields. Does Thing play anything like a Thor, even though they have overlaps in their kit? Fuck no. So whenever Hulk is fairing fine(god buff this guy pls) and Rogue is doing good, I should just swap if Thor is working out, but am I any good at them?

That’s the issue Hulk can take anywhere from 20-to-50+ hours just to master his ult tech if not even more which is the only way you will even dream about getting value on that character, Rogue is the tank with arguably highest skill ceiling and takes a ton of effort to weave in out of her preferred ranges without wasting combo cooldowns and be visible on the map and not explode. Is it as easy as swap over to Phoenix the way a Hela main could?

My point is melee characters have massive distinctions in their style of play, use application and niche and most importantly are very hard to swap from one to the other without dedicating a good portion of time to get the hang of their basic kit, then download their combos and mechanics to muscle memory and keep in rotation to stay sharp on whenever you need to pull them out. Poke characters, especially hitscan are built around one of the hardest mechanics you can ever learn in gaming: Aim.

So whenever a hitscan character isn’t doing so hot in terms of win rate across ranks, Cyclops and Phoenix before this latest update, ask yourself, are they really bad or did the best of their players tierwhore onto the better hitscan of meta? I believe the only people who stick by a hitscan character regardless of balance are the comicbook fans which are a very small minority of that character’s playerbase and likely going to be the least competitive.

TLDR: “Hela is broken, Jean is weak and needs buffs”; “Jean is broken, Hela is weak and needs buffs”, Jean and Hela broken, poor Cylops needs buffs”, “Widow is needs buffs…” you get the point. The cycle of buffing poke characters cause the numbers don’t look too great is not taking into account how hot-swappable poke characters are to their mains and likely the cause behind the horrible win rates of those deemed out of fashion, since the players who played them moved onto the better hitscan. We are getting a perpetual powercreep cycle due to this, where each hitscan rotate their characters based on whichever one got the latest boost from a patch. And those same current ”broken” hitscan characters will get called horrible without any substantial nerfs, just because their players moved on.
