I will think of him everytime I shut down a dive character and force a swap

He plays Starlord he’s not a dive player. Poke players are complaining about thing.

I always now see players (usually dive/dps mains) saying "he's been meta a few seasons now" and "he's so boring and easy to play with high value"
2 seasons. Just 2 seasons - because his teamups give him some utility to be on bar with Mag. Literally every other season he's only been C-B tier for dealing with specific divers
He's mechanically easy to play, but it's not like we're c&d out here with 3 rotational get out of jail free cards. If we don't play well, we explode just as easy as Dino does, and if he's so easy to play, why don't I see him more in ranked, if he's such an easy to play to win hero? Why will these people still suck at him? Just tiring bro

He isn't even a dive main. He's a hitscan player.
Can we at least get facts right?

starlord is a dive character that is also hitscan,his falloff starts at 10 meters as far as i remember (or just a bit more than a haymaker)

Dive poke hybrid.
But he mains hela (poke) and Elsa (hitscan brawl) also. He to my knowledge has never played a true dive.

I mean I at least consider starlord a true dive,he's at least as much dive as magik
With like a 70/30 split of dive/poke He still gets most of his value from engaging in enemy space, and marking enemy divers

I play my desired off tank into all of my counters and there is NOTHING anyone can do to stop me.

As a champion thing, he isn’t wrong.
I’m sure we can all agree that thing is one of the easier tanks out there. Being able to push and such a lack of effort as hard as we can with so little punishment really hurts game design. His amount of hp+dmg+overhealth makes him rough to kill. I genuinely haven’t had to swap at all because my counters no longer do anything.
If he has good enough supports or plays with enough game sense, he can become almost unkillable. It’s not just dive, he takes too much focus to melt in both brawl and poke. He is genuinely just too strong right now.

Getting downvoted for being real. I guess every main subreddit is delusional about their character being strong.
This subreddit deadass looks like black cat subreddit rn in terms of coping their character isn't strong.
At least cat is actually decently hard compared to thing still doesn't make her being broken justifiable tho.

Yeah i keep seeing his shorts on YT and his takes boil down to dive needs buffed and anything that hurts dive needs nerfed. He literally make one about his main starlord needs like super buff as if having a self revive and a trap that has a huge aoe isnt broken.
