Double Ult Counter by Emma

I will say that I have not had the best games this season, but this has got to be one of my best Emma plays to date. Managed to counter 2 ults in a span of 5 seconds with the help of Gambit ult. I have played this character for about a year now, and I have to say that this might be my best play on her to date.

C9 Clutch Moment

Was losing a game badly where the enemy team was reverse sweeping us. Half my team was down and leaving spawn (basically nobody), and I was going to stall for them to regroup. I had a feeling that they were going to cap the point still, but I was going to try anyways. Half our team was down, and I dash in hoping to do what I can. I managed to win us the game with this move and was SO hyped afterwards.

So I’ve been seeing here on Reddit that people are having some weird opinions on topics that… just seem so out of place to me. I am going to review some below, but please be respectful in the comments.

  1. People hate the current dive meta. Honestly, I don’t get this one at all. For AGES people were begging for something different than the poke meta we had been going through for seasons. People were mad, angry, and ranting about it, but now that we have it, people seem to not want it anymore. I GUARANTEE you that if we went back to a poke meta that it would solve none of your problems.

  2. I don’t get wanting longer seasons necessarily. I mean, I kinda do with the whole balancing, but it just invites more time for people to be more toxic. For instance, the last time that we had a three month season with two hero releases was Season 2. The same season where we had a support strike, people starting to “predict” the death of Rivals, and a bunch of mid events that people didn’t care about too much. People also got seemingly bored with the game as well in that time. A more recent example is Season 6.5 where we only got Elsa. Guess which was the next toxic season?

  3. People wanting more skins. Honestly, I don’t get this. People complain and become SO obsessed with an aesthetic that they seem to go crazy. Then they toxic post constantly about it all the time. Do you know what I do when I want a character to get more skins? I BUY them. That’s most of what we can do because that is the MAIN reason Rivals makes skins.

Overall, I feel like we have just gotten way to toxic and diluted that we ask for things when we ignore the obvious. All these things that people ask for are not going to change the core issue which is the community.

Now, I do understand a few things. I will go over them here.

  1. I do understand the idea of longer seasons, but I believe it will even out with the problems that we currently have as I explained above. Will it give more time for meta adjustments? Yes, but what if we don’t like them? Then we are stuck with a bad meta for a month and a half vs just a month. Mix that with a bad hero release and people are going to be unbearable until the next season.

  2. I get the argument with new characters vs old characters. It does seem as if they are forgetting the core aspect of their original game by making new characters so different/better than the originals. It is concerning to say the least.

  3. I get the complaints against tenacity. Yes, it was a bad system. Not really sure on the thought process of that one, and I believe it needs to go back to the drawing board.

  4. Too much content is understandable, but I would rather have that than less content. Overall though, I believe we have gone to the other extreme concerning this, but I do think this is kinda a one time thing. We were promised a pve mode by this time, and Rivals had an agreement for a new pvp mode for the Avengers. So it kinda made sense that this season was overpacked. With that in mind, I believe that they will be on a normal schedule for the rest of the year. We can’t look at NOW and say that there is a problem with content.

Overall, I believe people are to present minded. I think we are forgetting the past seasons and not thinking to the future ones enough. Due to this, I believe we have become WAY too toxic which is the most important present issue. THAT is what needs to be fixed ASAP and THAT is what will cause the game to die out. Personally, I am hoping bans in comp will become harsher in the future to handle this issue.
