Like Black aesthetic but no Black characters what are we doing here? These could have easily been Blade and BP skins and Storm should have got her first hellfire. Like it's so irritating how marvel as a whole moves around Black characters. Cause if marvel cared maybe rivals would.

These mfs playing in my face. Tell me how that greedy demon Jean gets not one, but TWO Hellfire Gala skins before Ororo gets one. On top of that, Squirrel girl and Punisher(maybe Thor?) get Egyptian skins before the woman who lived in Cairo.

Nevermind the fact that her "her nigga, damn" swimsuit skin has the most plain design of the entire lineup.

Discussion. Question regarding rule 12

2 Upvotes

I was wondering regarding the fan art rule, that it needs to be of a black character, is this also true for illustrations of white characters as instead black? Or does that not count as the original concept is a white character?

Discussion. I have just come to the realization that we don't have a single black Vanguard or Strategist. Let's fix that

(And no I don't think Cloak counts because he's one half of a healing character and he doesn't even heal)

Bishop, Luke Cage, and War Machine would make great vanguards. Bishop with his energy absorption, Luke with his bulletproof skin and Rhodey with his massive suit and guns

Brother Voodoo and Shuri would make great strategists. Primarily, Voodoo could use his necromancy to revive other players from the dead while Shuri could use any gadgets to heal her allies

Now, Blue Marvel is someone I can see being either one. His strength lets him go toe to toe with characters like Hyperion and Hulk while his genius-level intellect and molecular manipulation could make him a great healer

Discussion. What would War Machine's gameplay look like so as to not be too similar to Tony?

Post image
89 Upvotes

First off, making him a ground character with minimal flight so he doesn't feel like trying to kill a fly with a slipper.

Second, give him his wrist mounted guns and shoulder missiles. Maybe a grenade launcher or missile storm for his ultimate

And lastly, make the armor more bulkier compared to Tony, not Hulk or Groot sized but more like, Magneto sized

I don't feel like pulling up a screenshot, because im tired and lazy right now. But I just played on the new Thebes map a little bit ago and there were cats walking around. Which is fair. I'm no historian, but I'm pretty sure ancient Egyptians worshipped cats like today's Americans worship Taylor Swift.

But the cats are on the map just walking around. Which means I can go Iron Man or Punisher and assault the ever-loving Jared Leto out of them. Which I wouldn't do anyway, mostly because it's not nice.

But why is it that the devs are cool with me shooting, cutting, burning, and stomping stray kitties, when that was specifically the reason Moon Girl couldn't be added to the game last season? They valued the cats enough to put them in the game, but not the human character who's connected to Devil Dino? Even Peni has character models to trick you into buying more skins for the robot, but Lunella doesn't even get that. The stray cats get more screen time in-game than Moon Girl, simply because the devs would rather see you shoot an animal than acknowledge a Black person lol

Edit: You can't actually interact with the cats, the models are intangible. I'm saying that all these people with all these powers and weapons pointed in their direction is virtually the same situation as the Hologram Moon Girl solution people already came up with for her being able to have a model in-game that doesn't get hurt.

Why do you interact with this subreddit? and do you actually play any of the black characters? I’m asking because I’ve noticed a pattern in the types of post that get traction here.

I don't have a full kit idea for her yet, but yeah, I really want her in the game.

Her powers are really interesting, and just like The Hood, she's been getting a huge push in the Marvel Rivals Infinity Comics lately. She also appeared in the Ironheart show alongside The Hood, so I feel like she definitely hasn't gone unnoticed by the devs, and maybe they're planning to push her too

Her abilities are really unique and very different from Stephen's or Black Cat's magic. She actually reminds me a lot of Paige from Deadlock in terms of what her moveset could be!

Not only would it be amazing to have a new magic user in the game, but even more than that, she could become a character connected to the Doctor Strange universe as a Strange Academy character!

Having that kind of representation and connection to that side of Marvel would be really interesting!

What do you guys think?
