Why do bronze players have to play against GM players in quickplay? It's horrible. Netease turned off the bot matches but now i get to play matches of 3 bronze 2 silver and a gold vs gm, 2 plat, diamond, gold, bronze. it's a crap shoot, they are shooting fish in a barrel.
@@fusioniclanlo2k107he just said it was frustrating. Which makes sense because it’s counterintuitive to moonknights kit, even if balanced. No need to be senselessly toxic
While yes the dmg walls one shot the nest, if you do this the penny gets the nest back with 0 cooldown so it’s no always great, I’d recommend walling off the penny from the nest then quickly destroying it instead
As a wolvie main it’s so good to know nobody has figured out a viable counter for him yet. So I might as well tell you. I have 40 hours on this character and if you wanna counter wolves go into magneto and get hulk. One tank comps DO NOT COUNTER LOGAN. But hulk and Mag do. They both have complete damage immunity when hitting one button and in hulks case when he uses it after getting yanked he can just jump back to his team. Wolvie also kills squishes very fast at max rage. You can kill a Luna in 2 seconds easily so having a magneto to use that shield on anybody helps more than anything. Magneto is the ultimate counter he’s the most frustrating to play against which is comic accurate interestingly enough.
Good wolverines can take over games for sure and you can be a menace even if you're bad just totally disrupting the enemy team. Whenever I play venom and I see wolverine I just immediately switch off cause I know anytime I'm diving the healers I'm gonna get grabbed and thrown into a corner at a moments notice 😂
Man.......i keep coming back to watch this video after every Rivals session. I must have watched this and then gone in game to use it 5 times now.....what a great guide.

another great counter for black panther, as a panther main myself, are flying heroes. The ability to fly and have a wide view of what’s going on allows ur team to easily pick out black panthers during their set up period before they dive in
of note on peni parker: Her hives cooldown is based on it's total health. If it has 100% health, she can recast immediately, but if it has even a little damage it starts getting CD, from 3 seconds to 15 seconds. As a Peni main, one opf my frustrations, is moving my nest when it's been poked a couple of times. (this comes into play a LOT on convoy maps) So just poking that nest a LITTLE can slow down her gameplan by a chunk. She can't just throw her nest back down as her team moves up, there's a pause. And in that pause, her adam warlock or whatever she is keeping safe, is divable. ALSO: I hate Scarlet Witch as Peni. her %HP hitscan can hit from way outside of my setup, and her ult 1 shots me from above where my mines and drones reach. So Scarlet Witch is a decent counter.

Fun fact: features of a hero, that make them invulnerable / intangible also make them non-existent for however long that is. What that means is, if they are holding a point in overtime and they are in that invulnerable mode they will not be considered on the point. Use this to pressure characters like the hulk's transformation or psylock's ultimate. They will use it thinking they're holding the point but in reality it's like they're not even there.
Jeff going underground as well doesn't count as him being on point. (I dont know if hes considered "intangible", but I guess u gotta be on the same floor as the point lol)
Btw Namor main here, currently GM. He is amazing versus Penni, his turrets auto focus the mines so you can use them as a mine sweeper. You can also stack two turrets on top of each other on the side of the wall youre gonna peek and they serve as cover in case youre contesting a Hela or Hawkeye.
he didnt mention it but cloak and dagger can counter jeffs ult by the right click ability (cloaking) all of the team can be saved by it so if you are stacked up all together you can turn his ult useless by using that ability with cloak
Yes. I am climbing Rank with C&D and in the right hands and quick clutch you can render a lot of Ults useless. Like stacking their Ultimate 3 times on top of another can counter Pumisher and even Hella’s ult attacks.
The thor info is wrong, he doesn't get thorforce by hitting people within lightning realm. He regains thorforce equal to the number of people in the bubble at the moment he casts it. If you walk into the bubble later he will not gain thorforce. He can also regain one thorforce if he hits someone with his primary hammer attack for 5 seconds after each use of his thorforce spending abilities.
U start it pre ult activation and you can also float with dash in response to sound. I've canceled over 20 Jeff ults and only messed my timing up once. Not difficult to do
I will say, Adam Warlock can burst a squishy diving him with a full charge right click plus a headshot or two. And his heal can bring him to full it he is away from teammates so he takes all the instances of healing. Don’t just walk into him you have to surprise him.
@@TheGreatPewpyOne a bad adam can be a throw, but the good ones can carry from behind the scenes and most people wont realize till the end scoreboard.he is definitely a character where you don't feel the feedback so he seems worse than he is. It's like when you play namor and have a rough game, but at the end of the match you have crazy damage numbers because your squids went ham
im in platinum rank about to hit diamond and it still blows my mind how many DPS players will not shoot peni's drone. It's like there some unwritten rule that dps players aren't allowed to shoot any deployable equipment.
I always shoot penny nest, ankh or whatever I see that is different color than my team, it's an obsession. Like I prefer shooting the nest than the enemy if it's in front of me, cause I know, that the nest can't respawn before I do and it gives my team a far better fighting chance without any distraction. Ima Bucky main btw.
As a Punisher main, the best counters are definitely divers like Magik, Iron Fist, Black Panther, and Spiderman, but Hawkeye is also a massive counter to him. His arrows absolutely melt your turret and he can 2 shot you easily because of the lack of mobility.
To add to the Moon knight portion, you should memorize the distance of the ankh. That distance is the same distance for all ricochets. If you stand within that distance of your teammates, you are voluntarily killing yourself and your teammate. His attacks can bounce 3 or 4 times, so standing next to someone allows him to max out his damage, which builds his ult stupid fast and deletes you ever faster. I main moon knight and I've dropped 8k damage in less than 2 minutes people people just stood on top of each other
It doesn't put the nest on cool down though when you break the nest with a wall. It can just immediately be placed again unless it took damage. The same thing happens when a map rebuilds.
Thank you for the vid i have a huge back pain problem and got locked out for this year Christmas unfortunately i love this game and my little brother wanted to grind today with me but i can’t stand up so i watch this video for the knowledge for when i can play with him again
Yeah I play Venom secondarily and 100% the two times I’m slightly panicking is right before I shield (perfect time to get cc’ed and die) and when all my moves are spent and it’s time to dip out lol.
Should be noted that bp also does more damage when his health is low… so if you poke him down and not kill him, he might just commit with a small damage boost and hit the breakpoints with his abilities alone. I’ve done that a few times playing him and scored a few kills and got a shield. To survive.
Maybe it is just the level I'm playing at, but when I'm playing Cloak and Dagger, they feel like the Strategist with the best chance against a diver. If you aren't just hyperfocusing on healbotting, swapping to Cloak, blinding the diver and then hitting drain on them generally you've got the advantage. Also, playing C&D as a healing brawler can be safer than backlining it. Cloak's damage falloff wants you at short to midrange anyway, and if you're near the group you are benefitting from your own area heal and more friendly bodies blocking damage for you.
go invisible, fly in the air, come out, swap mid air , throw bubble down while falling, when u hit the ground u are ready to attack whatever dive is on. I think it’s one of the best black panther counters because the auto aim
My tips for Black Panthar and Scarlet Witch. For Black Panthar, I think Peni and Magick are good against him. Peni makes it harder for him to engage and she can web him. Magick can outplay him. Portal when he tries to spear you, or dash into you. Drop the demon so if he pushes into you he has a higher chance of taking damage and you getting some sheild back. Also, something i learned from playing against Magick as Psylocke, shes really good at baiting. So if fighting Black Panthar ironically moving away from him is better at getting the kill. If he pushes you it puts him at the effective range of your tools like demon, or even your aoe swing if you properly space him out. If he retreats then youre neutralizing his value. Both of you arent getting value at this point but its better than just him. If he's ulting into your team you can uppercut him to mess up the ult. Uppercutting him in general if you can could mess up his engagment. And save your range attack for when he's retreating, or throwing spear. I wouldnt use her range when he's diving, or in a combo unless you know for a fact his abilities are down, cuz even with her animation cancels its too risky for how much value his abilities give him. I literally picked up Magick to counter him and Spiderman. She doesnt work as well against Spiderman, its more of a skill matchup, staring/bait contest between these two, but Magick if played well can definitely make B.P. engagments more difficult because if youre a good Magick he has to respect you and cant just easily go in. After learning Magick ive made B.P. switch off or even leave the game. Its not an instant win button though, but as long as you have good reaction time you can definitely reduce his value. I know Scarlet Witch counter tip of "just aiming" is accurate, but i don't feel like its genuine enough cuz that can be said for almost everyone, also im on console so its not so simple. I know you mentioned Psylocke, it works on PC but not as well on console. Its similar to the old matchup with Genji and Moira. Genji/Psylocke can melt Old Moira/Scarlet witch but it requires near perfect aim when the other side has to focus only on evading because they cant miss. I actually found that its better to outrange scarlet witch. Even on a dive character where you could dive someone and 100-0 shes an unreliable elim. Her escape can come back pretty fast, and with its verticality she can be really annoying if she spaces them out and slow falls or gets behind cover. So poke her out of her range, or from an off angle where shes not focusing on you to bait out her escape then push her. Or play a character like Hela, W.S., Starlord, someone with good damage and decent range to box her out. Shes not a huge issue, but shes really annoying and produces a lot of damage value because her damage is consistent and needs basically no aim. Shes not exactly high priority when compared to burst like Hela/Hawkeye, WS, etc... But dont ignore her, because while everyone else can miss, she wont.
As Rocket, your orbs stop for a second when they hit something, like the floor or the wall. So when your allies are near a solid object, shoot at that to give them a little extra healing.
Another good counter for Loki, those healing pillars he has, there is a crystal at the top of them which you can use to break them. Along with me personally perfering Rocket’s res over Adam’s due to ease of access, and fully regened off of a resurection. Rocket along with being able to boost out of Jeff’s ult can use his wall climb in very unconventional ways, and if you make it so you can look around and jump simultaneously (I play controller so I use L3 to jump) you can use him as a pseudo Lucio, this also accelerates his movements, making him harder to hit or getting him out of range of say a Dagger or Scarlet. Oh, and happy holidays… I hope everyone is enjoyinh their time off, being able to spend time with family, re-link with friends, and create new rivals. Genuinely suprised about the positive reception this game has had through and through. I haven’t had my Old Guard group up for years, OW type length, but we are now all jumping in parties together, talking generally more, and it’s just a good time. I couldn’t be happier with, truthfully.
GM Hulk player here. A note on his ult. CC is your best friend. It lasts 12 seconds so any amount of cc seriously hinders his value. Additionally SPREAD TF OUT. The danger of his ult is not his slam. It is his Gamma Burst that goes off every 2 seconds. It pierces and goes in a line and deals 125 damage. The number of quads/pentas I've picked up by herding people into narrow corridors is insane. He's significantly slower in his ult than his base form so spreading out and kiting/ccing him is how you survive it.
@@raphu2272 Definitely true. Team comp plays a huge factor. It's not so easy to cc him out if he's also got bp/psy diving in with him. But in general if it's an option during his ult you should aim to cc and spread out. Or just bring wolverine lol. Nice 1200 hp you got there. Be a shame if you got kidnapped by a guy who does % based damage.
Any tips on hulk you can give? He’s the tank that’s been giving me the hardest time. Just feel like a bullet sponge/ ult feeder half the time I play him
@@squeedles_1943 always have a jump charging before you need it. I basically start charging it before i even land from the last one and walk around with my jump key held down. You want to make space and be annoying and then get out. Using high ground and other terrain helps with this. The idea is to distract people so that they have to look at you instead of your team and then run away. Eventually you’ll find an opening to go all in on the backlines and start punching everybody. For the ult you can actually juggle people with the knockback. If you walk up and left click then jump and left click again you can send them flying and snipe them with your right click. Also gamma shield is your most important cooldown. It shouldn’t just be used on cd. It can save you and your teammates from all sorts of things that use crowd control. It’s also your get out of jail card when diving.
fun fact about hawkeye ult: the after images dont have headshot hitboxes so if you stand completely still during his ult those afterimages will stack on top of you which will hide your head hitbox.
As a GM 2 Psylocke my Worst nightmare is now a good Storm Player behind a good team🥲 In my book she’s the sleeper of Marvel Rivals so far! if u play her right any dive comp dies before they can get near her (What We Play). If she’s getting pocket healed it makes it 10x worse and everyone starts to target u because when a storm dies a whole lotta value leaves with her, more for her than a lot of other heroes. With all the Constant pressure She Always has other team on tick damage while boosting her own team. Besides the tick her kit still does decent damage as well. Any good team will captilize off other team having overall lower heath all the time with boosted damage. I have a feeling we will be seeing more of her in the near future, especially if she gets a seasonal boost.
For cloak and dagger, after her dash ult, there's a small pause where she stands still. Hawkeye can just one shot her with an headshot and even without hawkeye, if everyone is aware of it they can just kill her shooting all at the same time
As an Adam main, his heal ability is self-targeted if he is isolated. Diving him can be very tricky and he can pretty much bring himself back in 1:1 fights to buy time if he isn’t dispatched quickly. I actually gravitate towards him due to his survivability against divers
I’m surprised that you didn’t mention how Captain America has a shield with only 400 HP compared to Strange’s 800. I play Cap a ton and I always feel like his shield gets melted away very quickly
Dr strange shield is busted. Protects so much and regenerated quickly lol they did cap so dirty. Idk why some characters are over tuned and then others are just mid
I only use it in spurts like if I’ve dived In and I know they gonna shoot I’ll throw it up reflect it then charge hit hit shield throw an jump an slam away don’t keep it up longer then like couple seconds just run and jump away
It’s mainly to defend from damage escaping and traversing than it is to actually tank for the team. The best cap mains i see are constantly jumping into the back line and distracting the supports. I see them use the shield running back thru the fight getting towards their healers
My tip for countering Magik as a GM3 OTP: just pick Peni, the one single good thing about an otherwise useless character that every low elo tank player seems to love is forcing melee dps to respect you just by existing with zero skill requirements
I learned yesterday that an Iron Fist can effectively counter an Iron Man. Iron Fist dashed 50 feet into the air and started combo-ing me. I thrusted away and he literally kept up with me via combos and chased me across map IN THE AIR and destroyed me when I ran out of thrust.
A couple extra things about groot. The ironwood wall should be hidden if it’s a good groot. If you have the opportunity break it. Also don’t stand near groot walls because they mimic his attacks
“Lord” 30h Loki here, i just feel like i can do anything in any match honestly. It requires A LOT of planning, but its so good. And if you wanna counter anything: just press shift.
Loki is probably the most survivable support in the game. Also, with both clones and Loki shooting someone, it’s massive damage and healing. Regeneration Domain is really used as a mini ultimate or to save yourself, You really wanna preemptively hide and reposition when you see someone diving you or have been in the same spot for too long. Always reposition and swap with clones. Killing his clones is the biggest counter to Loki but if he’s placing them more defensively, you’ll have a hard time killing a tank, or anyone for that matter, being pocketed by 120hps healing shots.
Underrated namor play is to use his bubble to get height and angles because out of all ranged dps that cant fly hes got the most verticality by a long shot the only one whose close is punisher because of the zippy
The biggest counter to every hero is common sense and awareness. Don’t get distracted so easily and predict what the enemies might do and beat them before they make a move.
I'm low rank, but I gotta call out Magneto as a great counter for flying characters. His main fire explodes a certain distance away at max blast radius, essentially giving him a flak cannon
Uh, high mobility yes, our blind is a godsend for it as well as our ability to reposition with Cloak. However, Iron Man and Storm? We only have two options against them. We either pepper them with daggers for chip damage or hope they're dumb enough to get close to Cloak so we can beam them. Really a competent Iron Man or Storm player should never be getting hit by Cloak
For a good Hawkeye the best thing to do is throw a ahnk down as moon knight and you can hit him around corners and it bounces off him and hits others in the area
Great guide, I just hope people don't start to play counterwatch where they only pick counters to the enemy team. This was annoying in overwatch when the tanks would sit in spawn only counter picking each other.
@Coach_Mills Corrections for thor, its not his movement ability that gives shield, its using thorforce. all the thorforce users give shield. and also for thor, the zone you pop gives you thorforce if you hit people WITH it, not inside it. you are safe to walk into it AFTER its down, it provides no benefit after its initial release. otherwise, you naturally generate thorforce with auto attacks when hitting enemies. This also means that you do NOT want to just go into awakening rune all the time. you wanna use that when focus is not on you unless theres a group around you that you can use to quickly get back thorforce after awakening rune ends. otherwise, you wanna spam right click with your left click and use the dash to push your enemies into more advantageous positioning, and this helps your sustain due to the shields you generate with using the dash and hammer throw over and over again. just sending awakening rune will get you killed alot because you have no way of using thorforce IN the awakening rune and if alot of enemies chew through the shield that using awakening rune provides, you can very easily die while in it.
@@Sosa_D_Roger Eventually in ranked, you do well enough in matches and try be as nice as possible people send you friend requests. I main Rocket and am trying to get out of diamond rn, lmk your user if u wanna team up
Another Loki tip, his stones have like 300 hp you can break them and remove the immortality heal and force the loki and whoever is under them to get out of there
Needed that squirl girl counter, she's taking a lot of my points, even though this season she's the one i have most hours to defend against us nightmare in gold low plat
As a Psylocke player, the thing that frustrates me the most is that I have to aim and land all my skills to get a burst to kill, while an enemy Hawkeye, Hela...etc can just spray and pray and if one of those hit me I get one shot...freaking BS.....

I will say, Adam Warlock can burst a squishy diving him with a full charge right click plus a headshot or two. And his heal can bring him to full it he is away from teammates so he takes all the instances of healing. Don’t just walk into him you have to surprise him.
nah warlock is a throw pick and gets shit on too easily
@@TheGreatPewpyOne Warlock is absolutely nuts in the right hands. Guy is a beast.
@@enigmahammer444i wont say all that but he definitely isn’t a throw pick
@@TheGreatPewpyOne a bad adam can be a throw, but the good ones can carry from behind the scenes and most people wont realize till the end scoreboard.he is definitely a character where you don't feel the feedback so he seems worse than he is. It's like when you play namor and have a rough game, but at the end of the match you have crazy damage numbers because your squids went ham
im in platinum rank about to hit diamond and it still blows my mind how many DPS players will not shoot peni's drone. It's like there some unwritten rule that dps players aren't allowed to shoot any deployable equipment.
ankhs also
Namors turrets are killer now
I always shoot penny nest, ankh or whatever I see that is different color than my team, it's an obsession. Like I prefer shooting the nest than the enemy if it's in front of me, cause I know, that the nest can't respawn before I do and it gives my team a far better fighting chance without any distraction. Ima Bucky main btw.
As a Punisher main, the best counters are definitely divers like Magik, Iron Fist, Black Panther, and Spiderman, but Hawkeye is also a massive counter to him. His arrows absolutely melt your turret and he can 2 shot you easily because of the lack of mobility.
To add to the Moon knight portion, you should memorize the distance of the ankh. That distance is the same distance for all ricochets. If you stand within that distance of your teammates, you are voluntarily killing yourself and your teammate. His attacks can bounce 3 or 4 times, so standing next to someone allows him to max out his damage, which builds his ult stupid fast and deletes you ever faster. I main moon knight and I've dropped 8k damage in less than 2 minutes people people just stood on top of each other
Congratulations on hitting 100k man! Merry Christmas to you!
Fun fact, placing a Groot wall under Peni's spider nest will instantly destroy it
It doesn't put the nest on cool down though when you break the nest with a wall. It can just immediately be placed again unless it took damage. The same thing happens when a map rebuilds.
Thank you for the vid i have a huge back pain problem and got locked out for this year Christmas unfortunately i love this game and my little brother wanted to grind today with me but i can’t stand up so i watch this video for the knowledge for when i can play with him again
For venom. He hates cc try to safe your cc as soon as his shields are half way down. And cc as soon as he starts looking up
What's a cc
@@adean5707 cc means Crowd Control.
Moves like Stuns, Snares, Slows, etc. Anything that messes with the movement of one or more enemies
@@ssheeessh oh thanks
@@adean5707haha this is what I was thinking. I’m still learning all the hero shooter terminology I’ve never played one before this 😂😂
Yeah I play Venom secondarily and 100% the two times I’m slightly panicking is right before I shield (perfect time to get cc’ed and die) and when all my moves are spent and it’s time to dip out lol.
51:44 you can also just shoot and destroy the ultimate. It has a health bar. So that’s a third option.
Should be noted that bp also does more damage when his health is low… so if you poke him down and not kill him, he might just commit with a small damage boost and hit the breakpoints with his abilities alone.
I’ve done that a few times playing him and scored a few kills and got a shield. To survive.
As a magik main I love sneaking up on a punisher on his turret and just dropping a minion
Magnetos shield duration takes a hit when you damage his shield, so shooting it makes it last less long.
Thats what he wants. A good magneto doesnt use it for "blocking", its for his knock back /finisher
Dumb
As Penni I’ve countered Jeff’s ult several times where he immediately “steps” on a mines after swallowing everyone
Merry Christmas! Loving Rivals.
Maybe it is just the level I'm playing at, but when I'm playing Cloak and Dagger, they feel like the Strategist with the best chance against a diver. If you aren't just hyperfocusing on healbotting, swapping to Cloak, blinding the diver and then hitting drain on them generally you've got the advantage. Also, playing C&D as a healing brawler can be safer than backlining it. Cloak's damage falloff wants you at short to midrange anyway, and if you're near the group you are benefitting from your own area heal and more friendly bodies blocking damage for you.
mantis deals with divers better if you dont suck and headshor
Try Rocket sometime, he's not very good at far range, but in close range, especially with tanks or other DPS, he could melt them.
go invisible, fly in the air, come out, swap mid air , throw bubble down while falling, when u hit the ground u are ready to attack whatever dive is on. I think it’s one of the best black panther counters because the auto aim
Merry Christmas, love all your videos so far! My fav marvel rivals creator for sure
i needed this, thanks mate. Also, merry Christmas 🗣️🗣️
My tips for Black Panthar and Scarlet Witch.
For Black Panthar, I think Peni and Magick are good against him. Peni makes it harder for him to engage and she can web him. Magick can outplay him. Portal when he tries to spear you, or dash into you. Drop the demon so if he pushes into you he has a higher chance of taking damage and you getting some sheild back. Also, something i learned from playing against Magick as Psylocke, shes really good at baiting. So if fighting Black Panthar ironically moving away from him is better at getting the kill. If he pushes you it puts him at the effective range of your tools like demon, or even your aoe swing if you properly space him out. If he retreats then youre neutralizing his value. Both of you arent getting value at this point but its better than just him. If he's ulting into your team you can uppercut him to mess up the ult. Uppercutting him in general if you can could mess up his engagment. And save your range attack for when he's retreating, or throwing spear. I wouldnt use her range when he's diving, or in a combo unless you know for a fact his abilities are down, cuz even with her animation cancels its too risky for how much value his abilities give him.
I literally picked up Magick to counter him and Spiderman. She doesnt work as well against Spiderman, its more of a skill matchup, staring/bait contest between these two, but Magick if played well can definitely make B.P. engagments more difficult because if youre a good Magick he has to respect you and cant just easily go in. After learning Magick ive made B.P. switch off or even leave the game. Its not an instant win button though, but as long as you have good reaction time you can definitely reduce his value.
I know Scarlet Witch counter tip of "just aiming" is accurate, but i don't feel like its genuine enough cuz that can be said for almost everyone, also im on console so its not so simple. I know you mentioned Psylocke, it works on PC but not as well on console. Its similar to the old matchup with Genji and Moira. Genji/Psylocke can melt Old Moira/Scarlet witch but it requires near perfect aim when the other side has to focus only on evading because they cant miss. I actually found that its better to outrange scarlet witch. Even on a dive character where you could dive someone and 100-0 shes an unreliable elim. Her escape can come back pretty fast, and with its verticality she can be really annoying if she spaces them out and slow falls or gets behind cover. So poke her out of her range, or from an off angle where shes not focusing on you to bait out her escape then push her. Or play a character like Hela, W.S., Starlord, someone with good damage and decent range to box her out.
Shes not a huge issue, but shes really annoying and produces a lot of damage value because her damage is consistent and needs basically no aim. Shes not exactly high priority when compared to burst like Hela/Hawkeye, WS, etc... But dont ignore her, because while everyone else can miss, she wont.
Merry Christmas to you too Coach
Merry Christmas, this is helpful thx!
Amazing video!! Truly a good Christmas gift from you to your community! Will be studying this, as a Cap main!
Merry Christmas, coach!
you probably know this but bucky ult works on loki clones. if you kill the clones, you get it again.
The amount of times I've seen people staring at the ankhs like they don't know what to do...
As Rocket, your orbs stop for a second when they hit something, like the floor or the wall. So when your allies are near a solid object, shoot at that to give them a little extra healing.
100k wow. Surprised you hadn’t hit it already! Thanks for the Christmas gift, my man.
This is a great video Mills!
calling winter soldier's ult "AGAIN, AGAIN, AGAIN" might be my new favorite phrase of the game other than "squishies"
Squishies is not a new phrase
The term "squishy" has been around in gaming for 20 years lol
Merry Christmas to everyone! I wish you all the best, with anything you do in life!
Another good counter for Loki, those healing pillars he has, there is a crystal at the top of them which you can use to break them. Along with me personally perfering Rocket’s res over Adam’s due to ease of access, and fully regened off of a resurection. Rocket along with being able to boost out of Jeff’s ult can use his wall climb in very unconventional ways, and if you make it so you can look around and jump simultaneously (I play controller so I use L3 to jump) you can use him as a pseudo Lucio, this also accelerates his movements, making him harder to hit or getting him out of range of say a Dagger or Scarlet. Oh, and happy holidays… I hope everyone is enjoyinh their time off, being able to spend time with family, re-link with friends, and create new rivals. Genuinely suprised about the positive reception this game has had through and through. I haven’t had my Old Guard group up for years, OW type length, but we are now all jumping in parties together, talking generally more, and it’s just a good time. I couldn’t be happier with, truthfully.
Merry Christmas 🎄
36:05 i would never have expected to hear road taken on a rivals vid fye tho
33:25 you can also just shoot the rune, it doesn’t take much and forces it on an early CD
Great video. Merry Christmas
GM Hulk player here. A note on his ult. CC is your best friend. It lasts 12 seconds so any amount of cc seriously hinders his value. Additionally SPREAD TF OUT. The danger of his ult is not his slam. It is his Gamma Burst that goes off every 2 seconds. It pierces and goes in a line and deals 125 damage. The number of quads/pentas I've picked up by herding people into narrow corridors is insane. He's significantly slower in his ult than his base form so spreading out and kiting/ccing him is how you survive it.
easier said than done cuz he has 5 other ppl on his team. Hulk is op and i say zhis as a GM
@@raphu2272 Definitely true. Team comp plays a huge factor. It's not so easy to cc him out if he's also got bp/psy diving in with him. But in general if it's an option during his ult you should aim to cc and spread out.
Or just bring wolverine lol. Nice 1200 hp you got there. Be a shame if you got kidnapped by a guy who does % based damage.
Any tips on hulk you can give? He’s the tank that’s been giving me the hardest time. Just feel like a bullet sponge/ ult feeder half the time I play him
@@squeedles_1943 always have a jump charging before you need it. I basically start charging it before i even land from the last one and walk around with my jump key held down.
You want to make space and be annoying and then get out. Using high ground and other terrain helps with this. The idea is to distract people so that they have to look at you instead of your team and then run away.
Eventually you’ll find an opening to go all in on the backlines and start punching everybody.
For the ult you can actually juggle people with the knockback. If you walk up and left click then jump and left click again you can send them flying and snipe them with your right click.
Also gamma shield is your most important cooldown. It shouldn’t just be used on cd. It can save you and your teammates from all sorts of things that use crowd control. It’s also your get out of jail card when diving.
@@squeedles_1943 if you want to see all this in action here’s a replay code where I went 20-0 in a diamond 1 - gm3 lobby
Replay code: 10633010829
Happy Christmas dude
fun fact about hawkeye ult: the after images dont have headshot hitboxes so if you stand completely still during his ult those afterimages will stack on top of you which will hide your head hitbox.
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
As a GM 2 Psylocke my Worst nightmare is now a good Storm Player behind a good team🥲 In my book she’s the sleeper of Marvel Rivals so far! if u play her right any dive comp dies before they can get near her (What We Play). If she’s getting pocket healed it makes it 10x worse and everyone starts to target u because when a storm dies a whole lotta value leaves with her, more for her than a lot of other heroes. With all the Constant pressure She Always has other team on tick damage while boosting her own team. Besides the tick her kit still does decent damage as well. Any good team will captilize off other team having overall lower heath all the time with boosted damage. I have a feeling we will be seeing more of her in the near future, especially if she gets a seasonal boost.
For cloak and dagger, after her dash ult, there's a small pause where she stands still. Hawkeye can just one shot her with an headshot and even without hawkeye, if everyone is aware of it they can just kill her shooting all at the same time
As an Adam main, his heal ability is self-targeted if he is isolated. Diving him can be very tricky and he can pretty much bring himself back in 1:1 fights to buy time if he isn’t dispatched quickly. I actually gravitate towards him due to his survivability against divers
I think you forgot to mention it but melee attacks can pierce shields, so any melee hero can counter Dr.strange if played right
As a Loki I put my Clones behind Magneto and he can't kill em all.
I’m surprised that you didn’t mention how Captain America has a shield with only 400 HP compared to Strange’s 800. I play Cap a ton and I always feel like his shield gets melted away very quickly
Idk they do different things and even though Cap certainly needs a little buff 800 hp shield might break him
Dr strange shield is busted. Protects so much and regenerated quickly lol they did cap so dirty. Idk why some characters are over tuned and then others are just mid
I only use it in spurts like if I’ve dived In and I know they gonna shoot I’ll throw it up reflect it then charge hit hit shield throw an jump an slam away don’t keep it up longer then like couple seconds just run and jump away
It’s mainly to defend from damage escaping and traversing than it is to actually tank for the team. The best cap mains i see are constantly jumping into the back line and distracting the supports. I see them use the shield running back thru the fight getting towards their healers
My favourite Marvel Rivals Guide Video 🔥🔥🔥
Merry Christmas Coach, thank you for thy gift of knowledge
Congrats! I just got to 100k 2 days ago!
I always massively appreciate the Sonic soundtracks thrown in these videos
I agree it's a vibe fa show
My tip for countering Magik as a GM3 OTP: just pick Peni, the one single good thing about an otherwise useless character that every low elo tank player seems to love is forcing melee dps to respect you just by existing with zero skill requirements
As a squirrel girl main, I’m not trapped with Groot… Groot is TRAPPED WITH ME! Muahahhaa
Merrry Christmas Mills!
Best Rivals content.
Cap and Psylocke can dash back in from getting tossed out by Jeff. Cap can use the shield dash or the ground and pound attack to get back in the ring.
I learned yesterday that an Iron Fist can effectively counter an Iron Man. Iron Fist dashed 50 feet into the air and started combo-ing me. I thrusted away and he literally kept up with me via combos and chased me across map IN THE AIR and destroyed me when I ran out of thrust.
A couple extra things about groot. The ironwood wall should be hidden if it’s a good groot. If you have the opportunity break it. Also don’t stand near groot walls because they mimic his attacks
Also a note about loki , kill the rock that forms on top of his head when he presses the shift
“Lord” 30h Loki here, i just feel like i can do anything in any match honestly. It requires A LOT of planning, but its so good.
And if you wanna counter anything: just press shift.
Loki is probably the most survivable support in the game. Also, with both clones and Loki shooting someone, it’s massive damage and healing. Regeneration Domain is really used as a mini ultimate or to save yourself, You really wanna preemptively hide and reposition when you see someone diving you or have been in the same spot for too long. Always reposition and swap with clones. Killing his clones is the biggest counter to Loki but if he’s placing them more defensively, you’ll have a hard time killing a tank, or anyone for that matter, being pocketed by 120hps healing shots.
45:38 “a pin or a hook” coach still has overwatch in his subconscious lmao
Underrated namor play is to use his bubble to get height and angles because out of all ranged dps that cant fly hes got the most verticality by a long shot the only one whose close is punisher because of the zippy
Merry Christmas goat
Half the characters: “someone like psylocke(…)”
The biggest counter to every hero is common sense and awareness. Don’t get distracted so easily and predict what the enemies might do and beat them before they make a move.
Merry Christmas everyone
I'm low rank, but I gotta call out Magneto as a great counter for flying characters. His main fire explodes a certain distance away at max blast radius, essentially giving him a flak cannon
Im a cloak and dagger main and theyre great when dealing with the high mobility and flying heroes like iron man,spider man and storm
Uh, high mobility yes, our blind is a godsend for it as well as our ability to reposition with Cloak.
However, Iron Man and Storm? We only have two options against them. We either pepper them with daggers for chip damage or hope they're dumb enough to get close to Cloak so we can beam them. Really a competent Iron Man or Storm player should never be getting hit by Cloak
@@IIMiikexDIIthats true. I usually do the chip damage with dagger to force them to back off
Correction on Loki regen domain he can die really easy to a Storm Ult because it shreds the rune above you while hurting you
How to beat spider man. PUAL
Doctor Strange Paul skin when
Merry Christmas!
I use fish boy against hawktuah, I throw my fish in front of me, so they block his shots while I can chunk logs sized forks at him
merry christmas coach
Peni is so fun against dive tanks. Watch a hulk go from 100-0 in less than a second is so satisfying.
For a good Hawkeye the best thing to do is throw a ahnk down as moon knight and you can hit him around corners and it bounces off him and hits others in the area
The craziest thing about Jeff's ult is that the team kill isn't even the best way to use it. But everyone really wants that mvp 😅
Great guide, I just hope people don't start to play counterwatch where they only pick counters to the enemy team. This was annoying in overwatch when the tanks would sit in spawn only counter picking each other.
Love the planet wisp music. Epic.
Cloaks Right click can prevent everyone from being eaten by Jeff if you time it correctly.
@Coach_Mills Corrections for thor, its not his movement ability that gives shield, its using thorforce. all the thorforce users give shield. and also for thor, the zone you pop gives you thorforce if you hit people WITH it, not inside it. you are safe to walk into it AFTER its down, it provides no benefit after its initial release. otherwise, you naturally generate thorforce with auto attacks when hitting enemies. This also means that you do NOT want to just go into awakening rune all the time. you wanna use that when focus is not on you unless theres a group around you that you can use to quickly get back thorforce after awakening rune ends. otherwise, you wanna spam right click with your left click and use the dash to push your enemies into more advantageous positioning, and this helps your sustain due to the shields you generate with using the dash and hammer throw over and over again. just sending awakening rune will get you killed alot because you have no way of using thorforce IN the awakening rune and if alot of enemies chew through the shield that using awakening rune provides, you can very easily die while in it.
Could you make a guide for people running ranked solo. Having a team would be nice but i dont have people to play with.
Same
This why I dont play ranked.. I dont have friends that play smh
Players don’t have fingers until gold and no more than 2 brain cells under diamond, just learn a dps and kill everyone ez
@@Sosa_D_Roger Eventually in ranked, you do well enough in matches and try be as nice as possible people send you friend requests. I main Rocket and am trying to get out of diamond rn, lmk your user if u wanna team up
As a hulk main the biggest counter to him is peni and her op right click every time a hulk dives in she can stun him and he dies very easily
Another Loki tip, his stones have like 300 hp you can break them and remove the immortality heal and force the loki and whoever is under them to get out of there
Star Lord can use his boots to save himself from Jeff.
Needed that squirl girl counter, she's taking a lot of my points, even though this season she's the one i have most hours to defend against us nightmare in gold low plat
As a Psylocke player, the thing that frustrates me the most is that I have to aim and land all my skills to get a burst to kill, while an enemy Hawkeye, Hela...etc can just spray and pray and if one of those hit me I get one shot...freaking BS.....
Merry Christmas
W, i'm looking forward to watching this!
