This is it. The last non-marvel character in the series. As always the older ones are available to read and look at. But boy... you guys are not ready for this man, no no no you guys are NOT!

Loki: Conjure Distraction

(Create fake projections of a random teammate fighting in an area you selected. As they shoot, use cooldowns, and ultimates that are all fake and do nothing.) :6 charges, 35 second cooldown:

Possible Outcome

Short Term

No one really sees the value of spy. as most of them will try to fight with a weak revolver that only deals 102 max at practically near melee range. people wouldn't risk using the Kunai or Big Earner because of it's super low HP and almost minimal award.

Long Term

High Elo players that are Spy mains will ruin the fun that's left for this game. Good luck healing players when you have to 180 constantly. Don't you dare play on controller because Spy will definitely exploit your sensitivity. Kunai spies are very unkillable at this point, and big earner spies will get a nasty killchain going. Maybe the SG coach has a point in melee characters needing a "nerf". Because this guy exists!

He's an A tier character

He will be a five star character

Spy 9v9 gameplay.

All summer skins ranked based on how they look in game

Thing will only get his rocky tides skin for this.

19. And the last place is given to, captain America. He dont got that shit on fr

20. Punisher don't got his shit on either

21. I already thought spiderman being out of costume for his esu skin wasn't great, and his summer skin ain't better

22. And the most boring woman in this game gets an equally bland skin. Thanks Emma

23. Mr fantastic has a very simple skin that just feels nice for him. I can see him wearing this.

24. Lady loki getting a summer skin despite being a skin of a character who already got one is, in a word, depressing. Plus, its not the best thing out there

25. Mantis never had the best character design to me, and her skin is pretty good at showing that

26. Thor embraced the beach hard and is only brought down by a lack of visual flair. Bonus points for having throgg as a hammer

27. Daredevil was never a character I liked, but i have grown to like his base design a bit. His summer skin is simple but effective.

28. Black widow is already a pretty character, but her summer skin leaves a lot to be desired. I dont like how bare it looks, and I kind of wish she had some kind of skirt or leg piece.

29. Human torchs skin oozes personality, and i like the detail that his shirt burns off in his ult

30. White foxes skin is good, just lacking in visual flair. Also, it does the thing i hate where the sides are just gone

31. I really like things laid back style. Really has the vibe of the guy who chills on the sand and hands out drinks

32. Loki do be styling with his robes. While not the best beach outfit, he earns all those piunt back by looking so incredible

33. Sue storm comes out the gate slaying with her skin. I like how its designed with the blue, i just wish you could toggle the sunglasses from the start

34. Psylock has a very pretty vibrant summer skin, and it works wonders. It's very well designed

35. CnD has such a pretty skin. Funny enough, cloaks water legs carry it this high

36. Stranges summer skin is, in my opinion, amazing. Its so simple but doesn't feel bland

37. I mean, its the first one I got for a support I play. Of course lunas was this high. Great colors, great design, overall my favorite

With fewer and fewer people willing to play tank, I got tired of being forced onto Magneto Strange etc almost every ranked game.

I started playing solo off-tank instead and eventually peaked Celestial I using this playstyle. It's definitely not something you can blindly pick every match, but if you understand when it works, it can be a really strong alternative.

I made a guide covering the decision-making, hero choices, and the situations where solo off-tank is actually the better option.

Buff fist💔

This one's for my boy pillow (iykyk)

bucky or rogue is my next closest lord :)

I have checked multiple angles, and carefully checked the damage stats of every other character in the match at the time. He hit me for 110 HP around the corner with his E. I've experienced this dozens of times now, so if it's not an intended mechanic, the devs needed to fix this yesterday. If it is intended, clearly they have fully abandoned any hope of balancing new characters.

Me personally, I think it would be silly and stupid.

It seems very, roll or be rolled in my experience tbh
I’ve had some great games recently don’t get me wrong
But when I fill it goes south hard
Or even sometimes on my main

I picked up the game in Season 6
Do we think it’s my inexperience or the actual matchmaking, also, in order to climb Season 9 i’m just gonna keep watching my games back and working on it
Picked up Magik this season too and praying they add the Hood sometime soon

Got feedback. Made some updates. 60 ppl didn’t like it last time but I’m right about everything. Notice how nobody said ANYTHING about Rocket. That’s cuz they know I’m right.

Rank adjustments:

Cyclops bumped down.

Hela bumped down.

Cap knocked down.

Venom raised up.

Reed still can’t stretch his legs (no change).

New rankings:

Angela ranked (congratulations on S tier*).

DvD ranked (congratulations Big Ahh Dinosaur).

Carnage ranked (can’t go liquid mode).

Cloak ranked (can’t go invisible… teleport… or shield).

Captain Falcon ranked.

Nova ranked (need feedback).

Still need feedback on the heroes with lore I’m unfamiliar with. Do any Nova mains have opinions on how well the devs fulfilled his hero fantasy?

For those who don’t understand the Cyclops ranking:

• ⁠His kinetic energy beams got changed to lasers. (Even if they say otherwise. His primary functions just like Ultron except for headshots)

• ⁠He can’t lead the way.

• ⁠Using his kinetic energy beams to push people around has for the most part been ignored by the devs in exchange for just using them to dmg

• ⁠lacks his super endurance

• ⁠lacks his super durability

• ⁠has no ability to frequently push himself around using his kinetic energy beams because the one ability he has to do that is on a 12s cooldown rather than a meter, meaning if you do want to do a quick side dash… you can’t do it again for 12 seconds. In fantasy you’d be able to reposition short distances on repeat aiming where you want to move away from for high octane evasion (and your meter would run out in game eventually). (Iron Fist does this a bit but dodges towards where he is aiming)

• ⁠enemies walking into Cyclops secondary aren’t even being pushed back. Cyclops is able to use that beam to force even Juggernaut back. But in Rivals it’s just a laser so… whoopty
