Previously on /mrg/: >>530414149

I was waiting for 10 but sure

Sex with Frank

I'm so fed the fuck up. I am a one trick black widow, I am a mechanical baby on every other hero. When I grab 20 fucking last hits when I'm against a Thor that is diving me every chance and I have no peel, I expect to fucking win, especially when the highest last hit count on their team is 13. The fucking fact is that we easily won round 1(domination). Then their fucking Jeff gets two Penta ultis back to back even after I told my fucking team not to stack the FUCK up after the first one. Did they listen? No, instead my Jeff ended up saying 'Me?' cuz I said don't stack up cuz of Jeff. They clearly didn't even know what the fuck I was suggesting. But hey, that same Jeff did nothing but solo ult all FUCKIN game! I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO. SILVER RANKED COMPETITIVE ON CONSOLE IS THE MOST BRAIN DEAD FUCKING SHIT IVE EVER PLAYED. IT TOOK ME A COUPLE HOURS TO GO FROM BRONZE 2 TO SILVER 3 BUT NOW IVE BEEN STUCK IN SILVER 2 FOR 3 DAYS. THEY NEVER EVEN STOPPED STACKING!! IT HAPPENED IN ROUND 3 AND IT WON THEM THE FUCKIN GAME. I HAD THE MOST DAMAGE ON MY TEAM AS BW. WHAT A BUNCH OF FUCKING FAGGOTS?!????

Peni bros we may be small in number but we have the best players in the game pushing those numbers up.

Every Vanguard needs to be buffed. More damage, more HP, more movement speed, higher numbers.

>last thread
why are you guys so obsessed with her

Yo, Marvel Rivals gotta snipe some sauce from Overwatch 2, fr! Role queue’s a must—no more five DPS disasters, lock in 2-2-2 for balance. Overwatch 2’s maps pop off, tight and tactical, not Rivals’ Yggsgard snooze spam. Cross-progression’s bussin’—let us flex skins across platforms, not restart like noobs. Ditch the long-ass debrief, let us bounce post-match. Overwatch 2’s polish is clean—Rivals needs to squash bugs and fix clunky UI, stat. Also, cook some real Marvel lore, not just skin grinds. Steal that Overwatch 2 vibe or Rivals stays takin’ Ls, bet.

Emma is pretty the only Vanguard that people want to play besides Magneto. And we're all Vanguard mains here.

don't understand hela hate, she's one of the most honest heros in the game. I can click your head so i deserve to win why aren't people ok with this

>yep
>yyyep
>mm-hmmm
>I WAS LISTENING

>>530510567
>we're all Vanguard mains here.
factual and true post

>>530510920
Black Widow does what Hela does but more accurately and more efficient. A good black widow player will average 60-65% accuracy with more head shots. Hela is trash shut the fuck up

>>530510567
>that people want to play
I am Groot

avoid healing dive characters because I hate the playstyle and want it to die

What if!? They rework Hulk's ultimate grab to a double exile. Both exiles Hulk and character. They cannot be healed by outside forces. Only by self-abilites that were applied to before the grab.
Also, he can grab Emma in her diamond form. I main Emma, but it doesn't feel right that going Every Kiss Begins with Kay on his ass shouldn't happen to the incredible fucking Hulk.

>>530510079
you are just straight dogshit, like all console players

>>530511405
Alright Groot, that people CAN actually play.
Since Cap is worthless, Thing is for 3.5, Strange is a portal bot, Peni exists because of Rocket, Hulk because of Namor, Thor presses F and Groot is a known racist

>>530510920
Nothing honest about two shotting people. I don’t think I’ve ever been killed by Hela’s or Hawkeye’s whose shots were intentionally and weren’t just stray bullets.

>>530511813
The fuck am I looking at you stupid fuck? What are you trying to show me?

>>530511639
Your team should just be able to damage them alongside you. If they don’t want to die they should keep their distance or get healing from their allies.

Kek that reminds me that Black widow has a 37% Winrate in celestial and above with a 1.24% pick rate on console. Lots of melee characters actually thrive better there.

Please just let me opt out of console shitters in QM...

I had a dang ol cowboy duel at dawn with the enemy iron man we fired off our maximum pulses directly in front of each other but I was faster and killed him first. Unfortunately due to the radius of the blast from the enemy iron man's maximum pulse i was also vaporized but I was a singular millisecond faster so I won

>>530515925
Last I remember, yes. Though I don't think they work well together.

I think the most aggravating part about this season aside from the dogshit support player influx
is the fact that they get mvp like every game and

>>530516623
Anon was taken too soon by the Strategist mafia.

If supports are boosted, how come my lowest win rate is with a main healer?

When are they adding Candlejack to the

>>530516394
theyre just never written well together, you could do a lot with the "lesser known daughter of Magneto" and "lesser known Summers who can fire energy blasts" as they both bond over their insecurities and living in the shadows of their siblings. instead Marvel loves to write them as angsty toxic couples who break up and get back together again and again

Didn't spiderman and emma get nerfed for next season. Hela is honest and literally only good players can use her effectively. BP is only good against retards

>>530518051
I was sad when I saw Spidey and Squirrely are teamed up anymore, then I saw Squirrelly is teamed up with Irony and at first I thought was going to be a sucky team up, now I think about it those Homing Missiles will help Squirrely out with those Buzzy and Dashy Units, also a lot of people play Irony so they're be an increase of Squirrelly players just for the Homing Missiles

I was playing other games this season, but I've got like 6000 points and can probably unlock the other pages to redeem the skins I actually this pass but im just curious - did they get rid of the "must redeem whole page" mechanic for skins? Or is it just for the free/cheap skins with no MVP animations and shit?

>>530520750
If they as a couple played with in-game voice chat they're retarded.
Looking for people to play with in the game matches over in some community (that they're even posting on) is retarded.
If she afk'd after someone raid rape, then no shit the team sided against her.
Actually censoring the everyday word rape with r-word is so hilariously thin skinned they'd be safer never going outside or watch tv again.

This just sounds like a dumbfuck dragging someone clearly not used to online gaming into an environment they clearly shouldn't be in (and he should've known better) without having the basic foresight to tell her to mute voice and text com.
Then goes onto a community which has nothing to do with what just happen just to effectively vent to say people are naughty and nothing else. A literal shitpost.

>>530521630
>did they get rid of the "must redeem whole page" mechanic for skins? Or is it just for the free/cheap skins with no MVP animations and shit?
Things marked as free on a page (that people that don't own the BP can get) doesn't require full page unlocks, nor the first premium skin on the first BP page. Every other cosmetic does.

>>530522064
Alright thanks, im skipping most of the pass's filler crap and ehh skins (especially since we got summer squirrel) but ill probably unlock it anyway when they do one of those "BATTLE PASSES ARE EASIER TO UNLOCK THAN EVER" things desperate games do after a while even when its pretty easy to max

>>530516972
Because invisible woman sucks ass if the enemy pressures you at all and won't let you healslut in peace. Play more Mantis

>>530518735
Black Panther is raping everyone across all ranks.

>>530516972
Invis woman is the worst support in the game. Like actually a throwpick in high ranks.

>>530522971
>IW
>throwpick in high ranks
Hello, metal rank boy.

>>530517951
>marble botches romance
im starting to notice a pattern here

>>530522971
>my team up Anchor is shit
I don't feel so fantastic right now.

>>530522971
IW is only bad if she gets dived and doesn't have the second healer or her team looking out for her. Which makes her team bad.

When you think about it, the only character that matters is Luna. The game should be Luna 6v6

Daily reminder if you're playing black widow to NOT treat her as a sniper or hawkeye clone. You should be "hip firing" as much as possible and jumping around as much as cap players do.

>>530523274
I am ready to put on a show

>>530523090
You can cope all you want but she is factually the lowest win rate support in celestial right now. Do any IW mains want to show us their win rate this season to prove she is good?

>>530523090
Invisible Woman has the lowest Winrate of all supports as like the other anon said the second you get pushed in you are not doing any healing.
You also suffer from cloak and dagger syndrome where your ult is static and magneto/ironman/wolverine/bucky love to push and bang an ult put on you.

I'd say she's only good as a shield bot for fliers

>>530523279
The real redpill is Ultron can sniper as well as Widow while also being able to heal. Widow just doesn't bring enough to the table. She needs more abilities

>>530518868
Why exactly?
>>530520750
>R-Word her
>400 updoots
Reality parodies fiction.

>>530515973
he gets “that” and way more, trust me *winks*

So Pheonix seems to be just a better hela and human torch from what I've seen videos of. Dare I say it's like a fusion dance of both.

>>530522757
>>530522971
Who should I play then? I could never get into Loki, my aim isn't good enough for Luna and CnD/Rocket are so boring
I don't know if Mantis's buff in S3 will be enough to make her viable in all team comps

>>530523547
Carefully explain in detail why IW is worse than Jeff, Adam, C&D and Mantis.
Being a slave to numbers without understanding them is a sign of a bad ignorant player.

>>530523867
Phoenix is closer to an Iron man. Hitting from off angles. Hela is more of a back and midline hero.

Sue's succ and her vacuum should be stronger against fliers. Maybe the push should have a lower CD

>>530523981
These are in the retards mind when they say IW is bad.

>>530523896
Brother you have a 63% success rate on Mantis but you managed to gaslight yourself into playing IW instead at a 40% success rate because you FEEL like IW should be a better pick despite evidence to the contrary.

Can you buy the jeff emotes individually after the event's over.
That's the only thing I give a shit about in that pass

>>530513608
super soaker punisher is funny and also the only one on that list I even remotely play

>add more tank teamups
>game is fixed
It's that easy

>>530524881
Okay give one team up for each Vanguard that you want to see.

>>530523413
Winrate means nothing unless you also show me their pick rate. Invisible woman is the third most picked healer but she is harder for any retard to pick up and get good value out of lowering her winrate unlike Rocket where a literal bot could hit celestial with or Luna whose ult wins games for free.
People pick her because she is good it isn't the character's fault support players are bad. People fill support and when they fill they do better on easier supports to get high value out of as they will get more value than the people filling on the other team as IW. Mantis for example has a high winrate atm not because she is good but because nobody picks her except Mantis mains inflating her winrate

>>530525034
>Give every tank a team-up with each other that doubles DPS walk speed (doesn't stack)

>>530525529

>>530525034
Bring back Voltaic Union and Gamma Charge for one. The only dual tank teamup right now is Emma/Mag ffs.

He should be sister-sexual

>>530525529
>thing but instead of rock hes made of metal
wow so cool

>>530525228
Let's put it this way. This anon is on your team >>530516972. Given his track record do you trust him more on IW or Mantis?

>>530525763
He's only gay in the Ultimate universe. The 616 continuity still has him as straight.

>>530526067
Invisible Woman

>>530520007
shut up retard

>>530526067
>Given his track record do you trust him more on IW or Mantis?
I'd want him playing tank or mr fanny while someone with less shame fills support on rocket or cnd

>>530509596 (OP)
>not feeling excited for a new season for the first time sincce launch
anyone else? something about season 2.5 was really buck breaking. can't figure out what.

>>530526982
They didn't buff Ultron and I don't care about JEAAAAAAAAAAAN

>>530523981
>Mantis
Damage boosts enables you to generate more pressure to your frontline tanks, dps ultimates, makes black widow and starlord a threat, and she is also apart of rez comp which is designed to prolong fights and can boost her own damage to continuously provide support to those around her. Ult feels bad because it slowly provides overshield and healing but doesnt last long like Luna's. However, the speed boost pushes your team to brawl more and make aggressive plays.
>Jeff
Reworked into being a long range healer that is best played in the back and has huge sightlines with his beam. Great on open maps with long corridors/pits. He also provides Storm the most anti-support ult team-up and with venom he can do easy burst/overheal to those around him.
>CnD
Ult builds fast and you have good sustain with your bubble. Great self peel and along with your heals being auto tracking and AOE near the target. Your ult lasts the longest being 13 seconds but like with Invisible woman, its static and it goes away when you die so you can become an ult magnet or push target. Also has the ability to debuff enemies making them take a whopping 28% more damage.
>Chadam
He's a dps support with the ability to instantly heal teammates around him. Skill check is landing headshots to heal faster but his benefit is in the utility of soul bond, instant heals and rez comp that prolongs fights or saves fights.

Knull soon friends

>>530524881
>>add more tank teamups
Only if the tanks get the ability and isn't the anchor.
But that doesn't fix anything, especially since the teamups are temporary.

>>530526982
yeah, neither of the new heros are Vanguards so i'm not likely to play either, Vanguards keep getting nerfed and Thing was the only one who got any kind of buff, the general issues with Vanguards aren't fixed so i'd still be solo tanking which i am sick of
and i certainly don't care about this seasons rewards, Netease are really good at either not giving BP skins to heros i play or making dogshit designs for skins (desu i don't expect that to change if the forth season is chinawank and the fifth is romance themed)

>>530527251
Nice blog, but you didn't answer the question.
>why IW is worse than Jeff, Adam, C&D and Mantis

>no new team-ups since launch
what new team-up would you give her?

>>530527787
shotgun pellets to the head as befitting of a tranny

>>530525228
> Luna whose ult wins games for free.
retard mad he has to aim on luna
xd

>>530525529
I want him to sleep on me

>>530527701
Ran out of space,
You see all of those plus's do not compare to any utility provided by invisible woman and her ultimate. She's getting out sustained by cloak and dagger, Mantis is benefiting the team in a more meaningful with damage boosts + has better self-peel. Adam provides a strong meta defining team-up and can keep fights lasting a long time. Even Jeff can have more impact and win games off ult usage and can play safe when being dove.

Invis woman lacks meaningful self sustain that doesnt require her to remove herself from the fight. Her ult has the same issues CnD but doesnt last as long. Your ultility comes in pushing and pulling or grounding/slowing people with your damage orb. Your leap leaves an invisible dot that tracks where you went invisible and people are great at finding you off that alone. The better healers have better anti-dive measures but also better utility that benefits more team comps which is why invis woman isn't performing well and is similar to CnD. Maybe it is just an ult issue but also these characters dont get team-up that benefits team comps and playstyles which is why they are low performing.

>>530528852
>She's getting out sustained by cloak and dagger
Stopped reading right there. C&D has some of the worst moment to moment healing in the game while IW has some of the highest. Get a reality check.

>play tank

>>530529097
Well for starters you could try playing some of the fun tanks

>>530529334
the "fun" tanks are throw picks

>>530527860
This. Applied to Emma as well.

>>530528975
>Throw down dagger storm
>Launch veil
>Throw daggers
>Tanks/DPS instantly healed in a fight as long as they are in the bubble or grouped
>Swap to cloak and back to dagger to skip the reload animation when
Its just that easy

>>530529384
Minus Venom and Thing, both of which are getting buffs, all the tanks have a similar win rate.

>>530529384
They're all viable.

>>530529334
>play hulk
>enemy team instantly focuses you and rapes you the microsecond your healer can't see you

>play venom
>same thing as hulk but you get bucky grabbed as you try and swing away instead of when you jump
>play groot
>I lied he was banned

>>530529534
because people swap to mag or emma when their favorite tank isn't working

>>530529527
Based big brain Tandybro

>>530529624
Genuine skill issue

>>530529527
Do the math and look ath the healing per second.
Then factor in that dagger storm can only be thrown at a surface (i.e. no aerial heal and locked to an area), her m1 can't pierce and can be blocked by enemies.

C&D is bad at moment to moment healing.

>>530529624
>groot
>banned
What year is it

IW is better than CnD lmao. How is this a debate? Her only downside is shit damage but that’s not her job.

>>530530550
EOMM knew you were going to do that.

>>530529774
Yes if all 5 of your team members are grouped up and standing in a straight line along with your shield. She's theoretically producing the most healing in the game. The problem is that you dont get that luxury in games where everyone spreads out and your shields instantly explode. Invis woman hasnt been good since season 2.

EOMM is a delusion and nothing more than a buzzword excuse shitters use to sound more legit than saying

while unironically doing mental gymnastics to say that to maximise engagement you totally have to go on forced loss streaks bro, that is what keeps everyone coming back and playing, what makes it fun!

If it doesn't have a shield it's not a tank and if it has a dinky little shield that only covers the one guy it's still not a tank.
Hiding under Hulk's armpits roll to get a tiny bubble doesn't make Hulk a tank either.

>>530530720
No, Invis Woman only has to hold down M1 to be a better and more consistent moment to moment healer on a single target.

Invisible Woman holding down M1 on a target does 184 healing per second.

Keep in mind your mentality of "if allies group up in the bubble" which means IW could also heal multiple enemies, potentially deal damage to allies, etc. which makes C&D also more inflexible in that scenario.

Meanwhile C&D can ONLY match that Invis Woman M1 healing for a single second if they blow all of their healing cooldowns (veil and then storm).
Then for 4s after that they heal 28 healing per second less. Then when Veil is not active or on cooldown that's 49 less healing per second IF they are also in dagger storm while you spam daggers.

C&D players have absolutely no handle on how much (read: little) their hero actually heals moment to moment.

No you see bro, losing totally results in more engagement! Everyone loves loss streaks! It's the most effective way to keep people happy and playing! Trust me bro!

Me when I'm wrong

>>530531985
>everyone will stop playing after they reach their desired rank you retard
Most people don't play ranked.
Most people that play ranked stop playing at gold which is quick to do.
Actual good players very rarely go on bigger loss streaks.

Loss streaks would be the absolute worst way to increase engagement, which you would know if you weren't full fucking blown retarded and a coping shitter.

>>530532148
>You clearly have no idea how EOMM works.
No, you have absolutely NO FUCKING CLUE how it works or what engament even is.

No go ahead. Write with your own words and explain in detail how exactly EOMM supposedly works in this game and then tell us all why it works that way. In detail.
Put your money where your mouth is and prove you know what you're talking about.
We both know you won't, because you don't know and can't do it. Instead you will respond with deflection shitposting

Doesn't this just boil down to burst vs sustain. If the burst is good enough and you can debuff enemies and allow your teammates to flip fights in your favor. Whereas sustain hopes to survive the burst and take advantage of the resources expended.

>>530532231
Just because engagement isn't in the name doesn't mean it's the purpose of the system. Players who don't play ranked and those who quit after gold are very unlikely to spend money on the game. Those who play often and want a high rank are. You buy 100$ worth of skins you get an instant winstreak btw. Why do i have to explain it to you ?

Am I just playing widow wrongly?
She doesn't seems like she can decide the outcome of the game.

>530532362
>explain in detail how exactly EOMM supposedly works
It's this schizo retard again.
I'm not in the mood to do the dance with him today.
The guy is not here to have his mind changed, and he won't change his opinion unless we can show concrete proofs like the game's source code itself, or have the CEO of netease to release a statement letter admitting that they are using EOMM.
I would recommend everybody not to engage or waste time with him.

>>530533249
you lock in widow below eternity (with a mantis duo) you're "doing it wrongly". just play hawkeye/punisher. you can carry your team way more

>>530533249
Widow can get a lot of kills, but she isn't capable of hard carrying like most other duelists. In some match ups, despite a high K/D, she is even a throw pick.

Just play Hela bro

>>530512495
post replay code

>>530510920
>she's one of the most honest heros in the game

Lol. Hulk and The Thing are some of the most honest heroes in the game.

>>530532856
>Doesn't this just boil down to burst vs sustain.
Both can do sustain and in some regards IW is better at it if you really want to stretch it since she can place her shield on a flyer, flanker, diver or whatever and either focus on healing others or allow the one with the shield sustain outside of her LoS.
IW is simply better at sustain and moment to moment healing than C&D.

If you're looking at overall better sustain, like we're talking multiple people or team wide, then Rocket and Mantis are infinitely better at it than C&D.

So to suggest as >>530528852 did with
>She's getting out sustained by cloak and dagger
is ignorant. C&D is an awkward middle ground where they aren't great at moment to moment or sustain, which actually makes them pretty bad at healing and not good at complementing other healers. Like say Luna+Rocket gives you strong team wide sustain, strong moment to moment healing, strong healing ult, etc.
People severely overestimate C&D abilities.

>>530532897
>players who don't play ranked and those who quit after gold are very unlikely to spend money on the game.
Yes and you clearly have the hard data to support this claim.
Like you think the ones that spend the most money on cosmetics is the very small % of players that not only play ranked, but try to grind it every single season to GM an above. If that was the case, they would not be getting anything from players in terms of money.

>You buy 100$ worth of skins you get an instant winstreak btw.
Nice joke. Why don't you try that 10 times or preferably 30 times to prove it's not apophenia.

>>530529097
What?! Vanguards are the most fun and require the most decision making in the game. Duelists are mostly boring and only a handful of them have truly distinct playstyles from each other.

>>530521042
She has an entire aoe bubble surrounding her to stun and pull to oneshot with. Great movement speed to reposition with, and has the potential to just headshot kill you if she ever gets boosted. She also has incredible synergy with divers because of this. Her shots are slightly slower and her movement when she is trying scope is slower, but she can compensate doing comparable damage without scoping to hela.

>>530535291
If you're still trying to peddle the idea that the worst hero and worst designed hero in the game is actually better than Hela, one of the better ones, you can just stop. No one will take you seriously. BW is nothing but her sniper and that isn't even very good. She has zero utility and contributes borderline nothing to the team.
If you're now sitting here stroking your ego with some potential nice looking KDA on paper while sitting on a nice sub 25% winrate you should get a reality check.

>>530523181
it's an open secret that Marvel is ran by a bunch of mentally stunted failures who cannot please their wives or girlfriends anymore and don't understand how being a couple works, so theyre obsessed with writing stupid relationship drama that doesnt work that way IRL and have heroes perpetually single because theyre just self-inserts for whichever pathetic editor is in charge

>>530516000
shame the MCU didnt accentuate Scarjo's curves in tight-fitting skinsuts more while she was still in her prime

>>530528852
Yeah, issue is she is clearly designed to be a brawler type of support. But she doesn’t have the kill threat or the ability to self sustain herself without stopping her healing output. Without her shield, she is forced to take more risk than other supports. For example Luna has the range to reposition herself to an off angle to make herself safe from random damage in main. Jeff and rocket has insane movement, which allows them to survive dives and give themselves enough life to neuter the attack fairly effectively. Invis is in the weird middle ground between both of these, without being particularly great at either

>>530529384
Strange is fun and viable
But you have to be a true Thulean master of Aryan magick to comprehend it

>there are only 50 pure blooded DPS left on the entire hero select screen

Yeah, I'm thinking I'm gonna be a Scarlet Witch player.

I'd been avoiding playing her but this is nice. Just holding down the attack button, walking along, just generally facing the enemy. Maybe lob a couple burst shots. And if things get dicey, turn into a ball and fuck off.

Yeah. New Scarlet Main.

>>530540915
Anon, even mobile games figured this addiction aspect out long ago. We're talking stuff like candy crush.
Long story short, no people do not like loss streaks. Ever. It's something you'd want to avoid.
If anything, the correct way to do it (if you wanted to create some hyper advanced complicated system to micromanage every single player's winrate, which is basically impossible and not something 99,999% of companies would ever want to invest time and money into) would be to break up loss streaks more, so you'd get maybe 2 at most in a row before a "forced" win (which isn't possible to do, since it involves 10 people and their psychological state and preferences).

>>530541456
Literally disproves nothing stated and is entirely unrelated. Try again. But maybe reading is too hard for someone as illiterate as you.

All of this boils down to the same ancient tired old meme of Forced 50, except now shitters latch on to their latest buzzword EOMM to try and not sound like schizo shitters. Except they chose the worst possible buzzword to regurgitate their Forced 50 meme with.
The funniest part is that it all comes down to shitters mental gymnastics too, since everyone else that wins and climbs the ranks just fine are totally given free wins, but not you. You are so insanely amazing at all games you play so the devs specifically target you to keep you down. Genuine schizo behavior. Fucking hilarious.

>>530546950
Stop chasing trends and just play any character you like, I was playing him since the beta. This season I barely touched him (mostly because I don't like trying to play characters who get banned)

>>530539326
Wanda mogs cloak simply due to mobility and burst damage.

So they were totalling planning to release Blade first but didn't for whatever reason. Only thing that makes sense to hold on to him even longer is because they're making him a vanguard.

whats the fastest a team-up has been retired? Cant wait for the storm-jeff team-up to retire so all these boosted eternity jeff players that love to troll can go back to diamond, their natural habitat.

>>530549589
Do jeffs even get that high up? I rarely see a team with a jeff win unless its a stomp.

>>530549276
I think they simply ran out of idea for hashtags for Blade.

>>530549794
yeah many of them peaked eternity 5300+ when the team-up first launched and now they just troll in low eternity

>>530549927
Wack, jeff is still a bad healer imo and id usually preter the enemy team to have the teamup just to throw the neutral game just to win the ult yame.

>making him a vanguard

>>530550060
BRRAAAAPPPP

I don’t understand the hate towards wanting Jean to be a strategist. Even if you don’t play strategist, we’ve all been in situations where we’ve had to fill. We’ve all had that feeling of ‘ffs, all the strategies to are lame’ and then reluctantly chose rocket so we can hold M2 and get a free win. Phoenix as a strategist is a win for the entire community. Phoenix as a duellist is a win only for duellists.

Jeff’s not a bad healer. He’s good if you use his bubbles properly.
>muh healing ults
I don’t know, I’ve won plenty of games without healing ults. It’s not impossible. People fumble their ults all the time.

>play flier

Please look at your fliers when you play healer

>>530545915
in that image I mean

>>530550664
if im solo tanking and my jeff is whiffing ults im just running it up main the rest of the game

>>530551450
no thanks, healing fliers is ass. you can swap to ground poke doe

How’s this for a night crawler kit

Shift - Teleport directly to an ally
E - Teleport to where you where 5 seconds ago, taking any allies around you with you and giving everyone burst healing in the process
M2 - throw a holy water bomb at allies, making them invulnerable for a couple of seconds

I don’t know what the rest of his kit should be like. He’d probably need some sort of gun or wrist blaster. Or maybe throwing knives instead if his typical pirate swords?

>>530550664
Its requiring the enemy to play poorly. 2 healing ults is optimal

>>530551450
With the exception of storm, fliers can easily get to health packs. You only have yourself to blame.

>>530552241
So he will be a support? what would his ult be like?

I feel like the devs lean to hard on the meme mascot character that is Jeff, who gets all the attention, mvp's, emoji's and semi busted team ups per season. Jeffnado still reeks of a reddit suggestion, so I wouldn't be shocked if he gets another shitty one to deal with when that one retires

when is netease going to full extract $$$ from peni pedos before the game dies off?

At least I won’t feel like shit having to fill because the only cool and fun strategist is Loki and even then he’s still a bit iffy.

>>530557321
So what you’re saying is you enjoy competing with me to instalock the DPS roles? You’re ok with filling using the same 9 characters for the next year when you’re too slow on the draw?

But adding them in certainly won’t make things worse. Pumping the game with more duellists will do. Keep in mind most people are ok with their being twice as many DPS as tanks and strats at this point but damn nigger don’t break the 1:2:1 ratio and pace your role releases better. Also don’t turn one of the few heroes who clued reasonably be seen as strategist into a DPS and give her a kit any number of other heroes could have had.

>>530558496
Blade was probably ready for a while so they are bumping him out, however the issue is next season already mentioned Daredevil and White Fox who look like more DPS heroes

Why can't we get this as a skin

>>530562794
where is that screenshot from? early access?

I'm watching a streamer go on a massive losing streak, went from almost hitting eternity to now dropping in GM1. Because of the seven division drop, I think there is 100% a window of when to play and when to stop. I think end of season is the worse time to climb because you do more damage when the season resets.

>>530562794

Looking at dominions 6 and other on sale games to hold me over if net ease truly wants the vanguard holocaust to happen in S3.0. I think punisher/Mr F nerfs should make tanks more valuable in general but you never know until like a week into the season.

S4

>>530564005
A disadvantage too cause sometimes it's hard to tell default ultron from the drones during his ult

>>530564863
I fear that we might not get Carol for a long time because netease couldn't design a good kit for her

>>530565089
What do you mean, they clearly made a kit so good they didn't mind giving Jean the reject version

>>530565168
You're so right they absolutely gave the physical-based Carol a kit based off Jean's original psychic based abilities

>>530565089
S4 at the latest

>>530564005
>>530564239
His arm is also the default color and not gold so either they just got lazy and didn't texture that too or this is an unfinished release leak. Probably the former though.

Shoulda have stopped playing after reaching Diamond 1

>>530565372
two weeks ago you said she was coming in S3

>>530565828
I think I said S4 at the latest because the iron first map was leaked to be s4 months ago

>>530564863
I hope shes cute and fun to wash away the bad taste in my mouth brie larson left for this character

>jeff ult if it was fucking busted
no thanks, i want to be able to actually play him in ranked

So if Jean is looking incredibly broken/strong, is this gonna be the opposite case for something like Ultron where we thought he would be weak but he ended up being pretty strong overall? Will Jean be a jobber?

>>530568725
she is ok not broken. maybe top 5 dps at best

>>530569106
which dps are better?

>>530568725
she is a worse hela, so yeah potentially

>>530569237
hela, psy, punisher

>So if Jean is looking incredibly broken/strong, is this gonna be the opposite case for something like Ultron where we thought he would be weak but he ended up being pretty strong overall? Will Jean be a jobber?
Anyone with good analytical ability can tell if they will be good or not when she drops and properly looks through the kit., reads the official site for details and tests her.

Just looking at her kit she will at least be decent. Mobility is always good, CC like stuns are always good, good teamup, fast projectile/hitscan is good and ult will at least on paper be situationally good since it could fuck over several vanguards, strategists and some duelists.
Self heal, even if the numbers aren't big, is also good since it gives sustain and technically gives you higher EHP in combat.

>>530569237
>>530569569
Wolverine

The amount of times I wish I had my dash but it was on cooldown as Ultron is insane. The shield nerf sucks but the flight speed time nerf is gonna be such a buff for how I play him.

>>530569569
What makes him better than Jean?

>>530569672
>Anyone with good analytical ability can tell if they will be good
Anyone with good analytical ability, enough experience with and knowledge of the game can guess how good they will be. Only time will tell how the characters will be.

>>530565372

>>530561707

>>530571217
You don't know how the healing done stat works, like most people that play this game.

>>530567851
>they are not leaks from the company just datamined content that the company made
Your distinction is foolish

>>530571324
do tell

>>530571405
You don't understand, its not a real leak unless the devs post it on their official twitter.

>>530571489
Healing done is based on how much damage your team takes that you can then heal. So how much your team is getting hurt without preventing a good chunk of it with temp health/shields impacts how much you could even in theory heal.
Then a hero with lower moment to moment healing or weaker sustain healing that can be spread out to more targets bloats the numbers. The former is basiically if a healer can take someone from 50% hp to full hp instantly they will need to heal them less than someone that needs to spam heal to get them to full while attacked. The latter is like dealing damage in an AoE. These can be combined.
Big healing ults easily inflate healing numbers, especially since they tend to be used while several allies are under fire.
Etc.

The healing over time stat is basically useless as an indicator for how well someone did as a Strategist.

Based man of principles.
>>530559081
You're the best keep it up.

Carol sucks tho so who cares

>>530569926
Her stick is the chain reaction from stacking that ability on her left click, which falls off after about 6 secs naturally so she has to intentionally build it and maintain it. It also doesn't work if they stay far enough apart to ignore the explosions which only damage the targets around the original and not the original themselves. It also doesn't do enough damage even with the massive chain to pressure people huddled in a defensive ult.

She helps deal with balling but unless you're rushing to dogpile the objective in overtime, its not usually wise to cluster up because of how we've been trained to handle ultimates.

My thoughts are she will be used by Hela players who just want to keep up a similar but lesser pressure after she gets banned.

>>530533074
only because his ass stretched by GODtry

>>530571405
The same people that said Ultron would come every day now are the exact same people that say hero X is coming next season.

Keyword being "some. A vast majority do not take losing over and over and over and over again well.
This is the thing that has killed more live service games than anyone can count, especially when it forms the vicious cycle
>not very high player numbers and most of them experienced or hardcore players

>the new players keep losing and losing, which makes them drop the game
>this means no new players are coming in and slowly the experienced and hardcore players stop playing, making the game bleed to death

To try circumvent this almost all MP games with matchmaking has bots to pad numbers. Either as opponents in team games, to pad battle royale matches with individual bot players or bot squads, or as new player onboarding to have them play against and sometimes with bots. But this is not very effective and at best a short term solutio, like a band aid.
You're both ignorant and delusional if you think loss streaks are ever desirable in matchmaking. It's the number one thing you want to avoid, if possible. But most games just stick to skill based matchaking, matching players MMR or similar scores as closely as possible.

>>530575000
Yeah that's how speculation works. I think you're confusing that with leakers and leaks.

>>530574801
She can two tap 250 heroes to the head like Hela can, the AoE damage is just icing on top. She does less damage per second on a single target than Hela if she aims center mass, but most people would take the parts of her kit that aren't left click and the splash as a reasonable tradeoff. I don't think Jean is tier 0 or anything, but I do think you're underselling her

>>530575389
0 chance they read her comics.

Leaker here, Dr. Doom releases TOMORROW. It was revealed to me in a leak. No I won't provide a source. The leak lives in Canada so you can't meet her.

You looove embarrassing yourself anti-leak fag but I won't indulge you any further.

>>530576125
Hell yeah, finally another tank to play!

Sex-23 when?
i love a good bush
>>530575442
He looks closer to an Orca here

I accept your concession

Realistically, can this game handle a new character per month long term? Or will they have to backtrack and do some bullshit like rotating which characters are available per season or whatnot? I'm not complaining tbf since I prefer it over a 6 week wait for a new hero, but curious on other anons thoughts

>Lost 8 games in a row in Quickplay
I can't wait to go back to rank this week. At least I won't play with consolenigs. I don't like how fake everything feels, it's just streaks streaks streaks.

>>530577017
They'll probably backtrack eventually. LoL used to release a new character every two weeks, now they release them every 3 months.

>>530577017
If you mean balance hell no but they could always just turn off and on team up to fix metas if a half baked hero is fucking things up.

>>530572714
you are bronze

>>530577017
Most Ults are going to be just AOE's just to let you know.

>season 4 K'un Lun based off leaks
Could the game survive this? Is Daredevil or any hero enough of a draw to keep players after 2 months of China slop?

When can i have a team that reminds me of part 3 jojo?

>>530577692
season story affects maps skins events and to a degree the heroes

>>530577530
I already had chink fatigue when we got like 7 chink skins in a row, 2 months of china slop might actually get me to quit the game

>>530578190
no they are not. maybe some but not all of them.

>>530577017
>Realistically, can this game handle a new character per month long term?
That isn't a problem. The problem with frequent hero releases in games is that they generally take a decently long time if you want to prioritize quality, unless you have a ton of hero designers and artists that don't overlap.
Generally you'd want at least 2 months at the bare minumum of just design to not end up with utter crap. But ideall you want 4-5 months if your goal is quality.
Then it's more about balancing, which is usually a bit more on a separate group of designer(s).
The one exception to this that they also want to add and remove team-ups, which adds additional work.

2 heroes per season in a 2 month long season is actually an insane pacing in terms of dev time. So I wouldn't be surprised if they do overtime constantly.
So this 2 heroes per season is most likely temporary. Otherwise hero kit quality will keep dropping eventually.

>>530578372
Im guessing they have most of the work done for a lot more heros but are just pacing out drops for them

>>530578328
>no they are not. maybe some but not all of them.
You say that, but the entire battle pass this time is ugly symbiote or phoenix cosmetics. The map is another Klyntar one. The Event skin for Storm is a symbiote one.

Following this pattern to the potentially upcoming china BP means you'd get a chink map and tons of chink skins.

starting to miss ultron's autochess...

>>530578650
Plus the hellfire Gala was 90% formal wear. It follows that a china themed pass means total chink saturation.

It literally doesn't. AI is utterly useless in game development.
The only people earning any money and benefitting from AI generation are the ones selling the tech to gullible companies.
And there is nothing AI is worse at than actual videogame design work. 3D art is the second worst thing.

>>530580370
in the latest most credible leaks we dont have any named vanguards for the rest of the year

>>530580370
I don't even need new vanguards to bring me back to the role just make them all a little more viable/ fun maybe toss in some new team ups. I don't like feeling like I am throwing for not picking Emma, I wanna clobber again.

if Daredevil is in season 4 then it ain't gonna be Vanguard Stratagist next season, best we can hope for is Dualist-Vanguard or Dualist-Strategist (i ain't holding out hope since the leaked shortlist includes zero Vanguards) and frankly if Netease are dogfuck retarded enough to Double Dualist i don't really think they care about giving equal heros, i'm fully expecting at minimum 3 Dualists in a row, possibly more

>>530580614
Even the most credible leakers cant be trusted in the slightest this far out. At least 2 of their supposedly upcoming characters should/ could be Vanguards though

>>530581216

>>530580537
I had zero interest before but this is actually really cute.

>>530580370
>>530581326
It would be fucking hilarious if the first hero of the next season was a Duelist.
That means the chinks thinks it's a good idea to release 3 Duelists in a row when the roster is already massively bloated with Duelists.
Like we're talking being genuinelly retarded to even remotely think this is a good idea.

Love Laura!

What even are these gifs

>>530577017
its weird because they changed how long Seasons were going to be two Seasons in a row, once 1.5 was drawing to a close they said it would be 3 months, then like two three weeks later they said it'd be two months long, its not like they were particularly desperate at the time of the second speed increase, maybe they really do just have a shitload of people who constantly crunch and so they can make a ton of content, maybe design is really easy since they are taking established characters who have decades of material to reference
i doubt they will keep it up forever, at least not without quality issues but i reckon they will probably stick to it for the rest of the year

>>530581495
I felt like verso here when I saw the 300 hp blade healthbar

>>530581667
they already bloated the Dualist Roster more than overwatch did and they thought it was a great idea to do two dualists in a row
i genuinely wouldn't put it past them

If Blade is actually a vanguard then they can release a duelist at the start of S4 and all will be well
The leaked footage that shows he has 300hp could be a red herring from the dev team (would be easy to release if he was tested as a duelist in early builds)

Damn thats crazy. Leaks have never been wrong

>>530582417
if i recall the devs went on record to say they don't care enough to put stuff in to fake people out
if one wishes to cope, the miracle scenario for it would be that this footage is old and they since revamped Blade to be a Vanguard, hence why he's releasing second despite being developed way earlier than Phoenix was

this is pretty much not going to happen but thats the only cope left, it's easier to just conclude that Netease are retards and thought this was a good idea

>>530586173
Just reminiscing is all. This years special is rather underwhelming in comparison.

>>530578372
I have to imagine they have a backlog of heroes right now they have mostly done in terms of concepts/kits which helps them keep on pace. They might have some people currently working on designing and planning future heroes for many months ahead where another team is working on the already figured out heroes for game balance or tweaks. Also the benefit of having an IP to work from probably saves time having to figure out brand new story lore or whatnot.

>>530582097
Maybe the Chinese complained? One of the things the devs do is that they are really good with feedback for general QoL adjustments/changes where they seem to struggle with actual hero balancing and competitive (no placement matches still). So I feel like a lot of the changes come from Chinese feedback we don't see that just happens to line up with a lot of NA feedback, though it differs in terms of the competitive scene. Though that's just speculation since I didn't see any actual complaints about daily missions on the English side and yet they purged them.

You people really need to stop. You're setting yourselves up for dissapointment when the chance of Blade being a vanguard at this point is less than 1%.

>>530586770
He could just play Hela all the time but since 80% of the playerbase already does the same thing with whichever dps they incorrectly think they are good at, it's basically guaranteed losses.

>>530586770
Not OP but beginning of match I pick Ultron because he's my main and what I'm best at. When he was still fresh I got a lot of "get off Ultron we need a support" but these days people seemed to finally get the hint that you actually can play well in 2-2-2 with Ultron if you're not retarded - that or we go triple support and it tends to work out. Now I only really swap if we're either against a super heavy burst comp or if I'm getting hard picked off by like a good Namor or Hela (or if my co-healer is retarded and picks Adam or some shit)

Matchmaking has its moments. The worst is when you have a really shitty curbstomp loss on your first game, but then your second game is going the complete opposite until someone leaves. And its early enough in the match for the game to just cancel it and send you back to another losing match.

I really feel sad for the perma ranked kids. I need to climb out of plat fast, this is practically smurfing.

The game doesn't tell you when the enemy leaves the match. You were stomping in the first minute because you were 6v5. You don't deserve that win and the match is rightfully cancelled.

The loss streaks aren't the point, it's a consequence of giving other people wins. If the algorithm determines you will stay engaged despite losing, you will get farmed. That's why people quit after 2 losses.

All live service multiplayer games not only allowing but actively encouraging smurfs is just a manifestation of the short-term profit mentality that they all have. More smurfs means more people buying skins multiple times for each of their accounts. In the long-term it's a huge loss because of all the players who uninstall due to said smurfs, but the (((shareholders))) don't care about that.

Nah I've had games where it was a full 6v6 because I was hitting tab quickly to check their roster/stats when not in the middle of a firefight. But since its such a one sided match someone leaves and its still early enough for it to cancel out (plus the other team usually says leaver at the beginning if they did leave immediately). But even then putting that aside it still sucks to feel like you were getting a win, realizing it was because of a leaver, and then thrown into another loser match.

Which you wouldn't need or want to give at the cost of loss streaks, but spread them out. If we're pretending this was even a thing.

But why do some good players pretty much never run into long loss streaks and just keep climbing?
How exactly would you "give" out losses or wins when how humans perform is not something you can quantify into a number. How do you track who is tilted, who will suddenly decide to play heroes they're not good with, who suddently stops/starts stacking, who wants to experiment with a different strat, what hero they will pick, etc. etc. etc. and then do this for 10 different people.
None of this is something some extra lines of code could even remotely do, since it outright involves precognition.

The reality is that it's random and just tries to match players with close to similar matchmaking scores, like every other MP game with matchmaking. Then human psychology and behavior does the rest.
Many people in particular do not have the good sense to stop playing when they're tilted
When it comes to a vast majority of player (which all range from bad to about average) almost all of them do not have the knowledge of awareness to pinpoint what exactly went wrong and will wrongly identify it and blame things. It was pure suffering to play with some friends of friends in various MP games where when we lost the not so good or average players pointed at and blamed all the wrong things, while not acknowledging many of their bad decisions and plays.
But the most fundamental mistake most players make that get "stuck" in various ladder/ranked systems is that they play how they perceive "they should play", not how you play to maximise winning with your team, which can even extend to team morale. It's a whole can of worms.

>>530592182
>But why do some good players pretty much never run into long loss streaks and just keep climbing?
Because they're either streaming or playing in stacks, possibly both.

>>530589010
>>530592182
Not to mention people like >>530591614 . You cannot predict this kind of irrational tilted behavior with code.

>>530587229

>>530592302
>Because they're either streaming or playing in stacks, possibly both.
Most do not in any of these matchmaking games. Stacking isn't always a boon either. You're just making up excuses so you can keep blaming a boogeyman system for your losses to avid looking at the actual reasons you lost.

Have you ever actually sat down and watched the replays of all the wins and losses you've gotten during the day and identify what everyone did right and wrong on both sides that lead to that win/loss and what all of your mistakes were? While being brutally honest with yourself? In many of those losses was there absolutely nothing you could've done to win or increase your chances of winning?
I'm not talking cherrypicking matches, but all matches.
Metagaming knowledge and raw mechanical skill is what leads to consistent wins.

>>530592442
Why do you need to "predict" behavior? You literally just put a bunch of bad players on the team you want to lose and a bunch of smurfs or stacks on the team you want to win. That's it.

>>530592182
>But the most fundamental mistake most players make that get "stuck" in various ladder/ranked systems is that they play how they perceive "they should play", not how you play to maximise winning with your team,
Truke. If you have a 40% win rate on a "good" character you need to reflect on what you're doing. Good post.

So many fucking DPS in every one of my fucking games bros

>>530593119
>Why do you need to "predict" behavior? You literally just put a bunch of bad players on the team you want to lose and a bunch of smurfs or stacks on the team you want to win. That's it.
I have lost track of how many times the "bad team" won and the "good team" lost due to overconfidence, misplays, tilted behavior and more.

Besides, have you actually looked over every single loss you got during your "loss streaks"? And then the enemy team? Can you honestly say that you were always the best player on the team? Or even second best? That all players on one team were bad? That all players on the winning team were great? It's randomized.
You're also making it clear your ego is way too big, since you clearly deem yourself as "not bad". So you're claiming the system is literally picking 9 other players to specifically keep you down because you are so incredibly good you can't be allowed to win (but apparantely actually great players can keep climbing, but not you). We're talking thinking the world revolves around you.

If your team bans your character after you hover it, you are obligated to throw.

>>530593623
as Guangguang intended

>>530593113
>Most do not in any of these matchmaking games.
Everyone who doesn't stream or stack gets loss streaks. No exceptions. Stacking is always a boon unless you're stacking with a much worse player because it removes 1 chance for the game to put a dead weight player on your team.

>Have you ever actually sat down and watched the replays of all the wins and losses you've gotten during the day and identify what everyone did right and wrong on both sides that lead to that win/loss and what all of your mistakes were
I did not install the game last week, I don't need to watch replays to know why a match was won or lost the vast majority of the time. Most of my games end with one team steamrolling the other, to the point that a single player's performance doesn't matter in the slightest. When I'm in a forced loss, I can pick hela and go borderline aimbot mode and I'll still continue to get rolled, and when I'm in a forced win, I can basically sit afk on the cart and let my team win by themselves. This is EOMM working as intended and is true for everyone who doesn't play in a stack and doesn't have a flagged streamer account.

>>530594410
That's what a retarded otp (most hardstuck noobs) would do. Good player has a big pool of characters.

>>530594410
I just act fake outraged so my teammates get off troll picks

When you think about it, a game like rivals has a hundred different levers and buttons to pull and push when matchmaking in order to rig games.

You can match low skill against high skill, put bad healers on one team, fill a team with mains of only one role, put known throwers onto one of the teams, put dive mains against poke, brawl mains against dive mains, stacks against solos, etc, etc.

Not saying there is eomm, but it would be the easiest thing ever to implement.

Yo senpai Marvel Rivals gotta chill with DPS characters fr they droppin Duelists left and right messin with the vibe we got 21 Duelists already bro only 10 Vanguards 9 Strategists that’s wack every game’s a DPS clown fiesta everybody insta lockin Spider Man or Wolverine tryna pop off like a Marvel movie montage meanwhile tanks supports starvin for options I’m flexin as Hulk or Mantis for the 100th time cause nobody else will

My friend is like this. He's a better player than me mechanically and often does better when our friend group plays as a stack in QP, but in solo queue ranked he's the worst performer out of all of us and has been stuck in elo hell (Gold) the whole season.

He constantly tries to force a certain playstyle (overextending to try to secure healer kills and dying as a result), complains that his team isn't playing the game right and often swaps to characters he barely knows how to play in order to counter pick.

Meanwhile I play my mains, stick around my team and the objective, try to stay alive and end up doing much better in terms of wins even if I rarely have impressive stats.

>>530594410
let me guess, you play black panther, spiderman or iron man?
the """people""" (read: brown monkeys) who play these characters are always garbage 1tricks that perform 3 ranks below their current if they're forced to play any hero other than their broken 1 trick, and banning them on your team is absolutely worth the loss to see them go full monkey rage mode

>>530594410
They do it to laugh at you but then they get mad when you throw. Laugh at them for the whole situation being their fault to begin with. Always throw if someone does that to you unless you're a cuck then play for their enjoyment

he is both awful to play with on your team and awful to play against

>>530592182
>how humans perform is not something you can quantify into a number
Yes it is lol. That's a pretty big part of videogames. It's not hard to stack one team with higher win percentage players, as people have noticed it doing many, many times. It's not perfect, someone on the better team can throw, sure but that doesn't make the match not rigged. You're not going to suddenly lock in and beat 6 players that are all better than everyone on your team. It's a team game and the characters are not designed to enable you to win by yourself.

She is one of the few divers whose movement ability is not dependent on her damage, with a solid passive. She is much better against flyers and other than you make her up to be.

She is objectively not good against fliers, period. There is literally nothing you can do against an iron man sitting in the skybox.
Being able to run away from divers does not make her good against them, she just sits there and stares while they rape the team.

>>530599098
you get your burst of shield, then cancel it. LMB right away to get another thorforce charge i think and use it to dash for more free shield. hammerthrow is another thorforce which is another free dash and E to charge back up to full thorforce and repeat with awakening
