Why I rarely see rocket since season 10 dropped?

Hi my favorite rodents ..
Im just so confused why I rarely see rocket .. this season he is the rarest sup Ive seen .. like after CnD nerfs I thought he would replace her and he is good against/with dino , phoenix is perma banned so why you guys are not playing him? IMO I think he is a solid A tier way better than Jubilee the most picked sup this season I would argue he is 4th best sup after gam loki invis .

It's honestly refreshing to see Rocket be considered "broken" for once by the rivals community lol.

I'm of course talking about his presence in the new game mode Path to Doomsday: Infinity War. Though it's just one instance, I found a video where someone actually ranks rocket racoon as the best in the game.

Furthermore: Aside from just the opinion of one person, I'm seeing so many people in the comments feel the same way that he is just a lil guy who shreds the hell outta people.

The top comment literally says "I hate this gamemode rocket and mantis are immortal" lol. I myself am enjoying the mode a ton. Right as I hit send on this, finna go play some more. I guess I'll enjoy it while it lasts

The reference in question:

What's the most final hits you've gotten in comp game with rocket? Mine was 11 yesterday!

Replay code is visible if you'd like to check it out!

I got more final hits than 9 people in this GM lobby as rocket! Definitely a game I'm proud of.

I only gained 21 for this game but I feel like I deserve more fs considering I lose more for losses with 0-12 widows...

Saying goodbye permanently.

I love Rocket. With all my being.

I hate Rocket in this game. With all my being.

The devs have shown that all they want him to be, is the most boring, stale, one note healbot character in all of gaming history. He is not allowed to be anything else. Even when they give us new things, these new things are... about healing and that's fucking it.

They crippled his ult for literally no reason whatsover, they crippled his wall climb for literally no reason whatsoever, and every change they make is to keep him just killable enough to appease the whiny dps players, and to keep him relevant as THE healbot character.

They will not change this, because all they see is that he has a good winrate and pickrate.

I am adamant in my belief that Netease will never, ever, ever let him be anything else.

Happy there's people here that enjoy this.

I am not one of those people. And I never will be.

I enjoyed his movement in the past, I enjoyed using dashes, rushing around, wall climbing and getting kills in. I enjoyed his ult.

And they destroyed all of that, and they will not give it back. Ever.

I put up with it because I love him. Season after season I played him because I could still win with him, but I just... wasn't having fun playing HIM. I was having fun winning and that's it. He was not fun for me, and he still isn't. Not anymore. Playing him is like... dissociating or something. I'm not enjoying what I'm doing, I just know that he is what gets me the win so I play him.

I can't do it anymore. He sucks to play. I hate it. I hate playing him.

So I have to say goodbye.

I love him, but I can't see my favorite character ever be treated like this, turned into something... disgusting, with no intention to ever change it.

Should rockets healing just be a missle atp

Instead of an orb , a tiny little missle hits the ground or player and a yellow smoke cloud forms and heals up the people in it .

Maybe have the cloud disappear quickly and it doesn't stack for balance purposes

Much more fun and interactive way of healing for rocket.

I love moments like this

This happened in a game a while ago, but honestly, this moment was beautiful.

Jeff swallowed me and tried to push me over the edge. I think he jumped off too, but honestly, I’m not entirely sure. And it doesn’t matter anyway.

He wasted his ult on me, I immediately used the dash I’d been saving, escaped, and climbed right back up to where I was before.

And yes, before anyone jumps me:

I know my ult positioning wasn’t perfect. We’d been pushed way too far back.

And yes, I recorded this by pointing my camera at my PC screen in the big year of 2026.

I am not a technological man and I do not give a shit.

Thank you.
