- In this video, I'm gonna be giving my full thoughts on the current state of MultiVersus, and more specifically, what changes need to be made to stop this game from continuing on a downward spiral. I do think that recently, the game has greatly improved in a short period of time, and it's on the right track, I just kind of wanted to start a discussion with you guys, and see what everyone was thinking about the topic. Enjoy!

It’s definitely nice seeing this type of content being constructive criticism instead of just straight up bashing.
I don’t even play MultiVersus but I love hearing your thoughts on it!
I really want this game to work, so much effort put into creative moves, characters that actually have personality and insane voice acting. We can see devs actually love the game, it's so frustrating to see it's not that popular
I think multiverse needs story mode that can unlock rewards such as skins, badges, banners, and glems. With co ops with story as well.
No
Exactly
I think the buffs and nerfs cater too much to pro players. They don't remove how hard some of the annoying knock backs are. GOOD players may not know but many characters like shaggy and superman are literally annoying to new players. My irl friends quit because of cheesy characters. You may say get good but you need to remember that casuals are the backbone of a game
Agreed. This game was the most fun during the open beta preseason. It all went downhill after evo and because that crybaby nakat. So many OP things in this game but all they do is nerf velma and perks that work well with her every single patch even though nobody was complaining about her.
They waited too long to get a ranked mode in working order unfortunately, seen it time and time again. The sweats learn they can get their meal in casual so when ranked does drop and the sweats learn they aren't good at the game just better than a casual player they will stick to casual like gum to the bottom of your shoe. At that point the only time ranked and casual won't be 95% sweats is the week MAYBE two weeks after a content drop like a new character.
@@cjknight6354 everyone was complaining about her. She's been the best character it top 3for the entirety of the game.
I disagree I feel like they cater to casuals the most where people who want to be competitive can’t even play certain characters the same just because all the buffs and nerfs
@@TheGodlyGamerMugen really? You think changes that adding or removing like 3 frames of changes to moves to alter a character's combo game caters to casuals? Catering to casuals would be reducing the knock back or how frequently a character can use a strong knockback.
Like shaggy when multiversus was released to the public. Changing his non-side special moves by a few frames didn't help the casuals who were being annoyed by his kick spam. Those changes affect his combo game, stuff that the shaggies annoying casuals weren't even using in the first place
3:54 I would love to see that like when you unlock a character you get a bunch of quests you have to do as this specific characters.
Just like in pvz heroes
Every game suffers the same thing, but I still have hope in this game
I think the balancing is only a real issue in 1v1 which they are adamantly ignoring .
I 100% agree with this, I feel as if the team are focusing way more on the 2v2 aspect more than the 1v1 aspect, tbh I don’t really have any balancing problems with 2v2, however I have way more problems with 1v1 that I feel get ignored a lot
I know my personal request will not be for everyone but, having an option in local multiplayer to have a 3 player FFA. Right now you have to have 4 players to play FFA no matter what. So that’s one. Another one I wanted to request is having the option to connect another controller to the same console/pc and being able to play 2v2s.I don’t even care if we don’t get any exp or rewards I just want the option available. Honestly gets boring having to 1v1 my siblings because we can’t do anything else outside of that. We just have to switch to another game that all of us can play on. But I really love this game!
Multiversus has too much potential, it just has to do things right and improve aspects such as the battle pass or the servers. Even so, I quite enjoy this title.
I'm glad people continue to play games out of enjoyment and not just hopping aboard the hype train and playing whatever is currently floating around on trending
It’s not that we do it intentionally. It’s more like if the game isn’t what we expected or wanted we leave.
I hope multiversus is listening to this. This would absolutely help player retention
We are. Always!
Something else that could help would be more hype characters. I remember when every single game I was in had an Iron Giant. People were so psyched for that character, myself included. No hate to Velma, Stripe and Gizmo but they’re sort of obscure to me and I wonder if they’re the characters people actually wanted in the game. I’d love to see Tweedy Bird, Darkseid, Scooby, the Joker, the Flash, Daenerys Targaryen (with her dragons), Grim (from Billy and Mandy), Number 1 (from the Kids Next Door), and Dexter(from Dexter’s Laboratory). I know this isn’t a quality of life game mechanic but I do think this will bring back more casual players who just want to play their favorite TV show and movie characters.
I enjoyed the video and yes I agree on the same 5 main problems, I've enjoyed the content you've made along with the tip and trick for each character on this game even though I've only played 2 games I will always love MultiVersus keep up the good work
I kinda find the matchmaking a little unfair at times, like I got matched against a level 37 Batman and 33 Morty in 2v2s as a level 10 tax and my partner was a level 8 Batman
Something that makes me mad as a LeBrom main is how LeBrom got nerfed hard and he’s not that easy to play he takes skill, when someone like Batman and shaggy who aren’t that hard have been good since release and barely get touched (mainly Batman I know they’ve touched shaggy a lot)
I agree.
the lack of batman balancing is crazy, i agree
Hey man love the content! Keep it up, it's super polished and an inspiration for other creators!
i 100% agree with this video, im a marvin main because he is very silly and goofy, but im gonna be fr he sucks. when theres characters who can just run around and dodge everything i throw at them, or just run over to me and stop me from attacking, my biggest problem is with harley because of how easy it is for her to spam combos without trying, or her neutral air and how it is impossible to dodge, i main bugs on the side and hes STILL overpowered multiple months later, and the lag sucks. but i have hope that the devs will fix it
Trust me, no he doesn’t, and when you actually start seeing good Marvin’s in high MMR, people are going to start complaining and crying left and right
@@djandjb1 maybe when i just get all his perks i will start having a better time, rn my marvin is very low level cos i dont play often
@@EmeraldLord777 That’s fair, I got my butt kicked for hours before I understood how to play him correctly
Good vid. Sums up everything well. Devs needs to watch this. Share it to them on twitter.
I couldn’t agree more but I also think dodging is a problem too the bar doesn’t really have a use but I still want dodge canceling for like true combos to exist but you can’t punish someone if they spam dodge
I feel like the devs aren’t worried about the decline bc they are saying to themselves “it’s just the beta we will make a comeback” but they make stuff harder than what it has to be like balancing certain characters like harley and Arya isn’t that hard
Love the video and just get this guy to 100k he deserves it
The fact that characters like reindog and now Marvin keep becoming literally unplayable is the thing that made me nearly stop playing. [Edit] to the people saying reindog is high tier I’m very aware of that I maimed him and at one point was the number one reindog player. I said he was unplayable because if you were to try and pick him it would either crash your game or quit out the match 🤷♂️[EDIT AGAIN] I am referring to 1s when saying they’re unplayable and also talking about just not being able to pick said characters either A with being in queue for an hour or B your game crashing
Reindog is decent but marvin is ass
@@MXZOON_edit I agree
Don’t forget Garnet. She’s useless at the pro-level sadly.
yall just bad at the game, reindog is high a tier
Reindog is a damn good character though.
I appreciate you putting this video out man, I feel like the devs would actually listen to you. For me personally I think they should add something similar to Towers of Time from MK where the rewards and challenges are constantly changing. Don’t even get me started on the damn servers, you can’t have ranked with servers like this.
Great vid mate, keep it up :)))
100% agree tht servrs are a huge problem. I disconnect from games now and then which is slightly annoying but nothing crazy, but when I can't even play a match due to a 1 bar match, that sucks.
what killed my motivation to play this game is the lack of good battlepass rewards. the best pass was the beta pass we got a legendary skin and a different voiceline variant. we havent got the same value since. especially with the most recent battlepass where its more prevalent than ever. no one wants to grind for a legendary profile picture or a mediocre rare and epic skin. no one is hype over the battlepass rewards. i know since its a fighting game that its harder to give the players rewards, but theres already stuff in the game that would feel more rewarding than a character exclusive badge or toast. give us announcer packages or even customizable banners. implement a season exclusive shop through season exclusive currency you earn throughout the battlepass or at the least give us some gleamium to spend or save. and with ranked still in development i just dont feel the need to play multiversus until either ranked is fully formatted out or a new good battlepass is out.
not to mention how the most hyped skin to come out which is fern is locked behind gleamium. when on the season 2 launch screen he is back to back to the end tier tom and jerry skin. it feels like he was supposed to be in the battlepass but they just got greedy in the end and replaced him with bugs bunny in a suit.
"And it's been a minute sense we've been growing and thriving" that got me lmao 😂
I definitely heavily agree that some characters remove counterplay and like the rick example was perfect because i typically pull out my wonder women on any rick and win almost every time.
I agree with alot of things but I think more flex items for high level players will be really good for this game. Imagine if they slowly added in diamond skins for the whole cast and you get it on every charecter only while ur in diamond. Also imagine if they added gold coin wagers I think that would he amazing for players but even more so for content creators.
One of the things that has been killing my matches lately has been terrible matchmaking. Not only are the servers often unplayable, but yesterday I, ranked 4 million in 1V1s, faced a level 35 Harley that was ranked 1300. How does this happen??? There must be some way to fix that, right?
As a WW main with over 700 wins i 1000% agree with how insanely frustrating it is to fight the op characters while being the most "honest" character in the game. I finally gave up on WW and am now maining batman lmao. She's still my favorite but playing her 24/7 against these other characters will absolutely give you brain cancer lmao
I would love to see you do a tier list of how characters deal with certain things like projectiles and armor. Cause what I find stupid is the inconsistent use of options. Like I can't beat a armor spamming Superman unless I'm spamming WW neutral air. Also I played a taz as Marvin and was in complete shock every time I spawned the ship, he just ate it.. or Finn's easily spammable ground side special neutralizing any projectile but WW has a animation before the shield comes out and then leaves her immobile for an hour.
So here’s what I think Multiversus can do to save the game.
1) Add more maps(Especially competitive maps)
2) Add characters that people actually want in the game, IDC if that means we have to wait longer but it will be worth it
3) Add more free in game rewards like skins were we can grind for as mentioned in the video
4) Add a better battle pass( like how fornite has it where you get free v-bucks in the premium tiers)
5) Everything else mentioned in this video too will help the game
I think your 2nd point is by far the most important one and I think it’s worth bringing into attention.
As a garnet main, i can attest to the last one.
She jsut cannot compete, even when you’ve mastered her. It’s so difficult trying to beat a a lot of the characters. Fin can just juggle your around, harley can be a campy bitch, and GODDAMN BATMAN CAN JUST SPAM BATERRANG AND HIS STUPID UP SPECIALS.
If you buffed gaenet to be a S teir character, nobody would enjoy it. Nerf all the S teir characters, and everyone would enjoy it. They should be more agressive for changing characters. Make new metas y’know. Make it fresh. But nope, for 2 months, we have to deal with the warcrimes commited by these characters on a daily.
I main IG and T&J. Before you go and say “of course your not gonna say your main is OP” I can acknowledge IG’s strengths in 2v2s can make him oppressive. But if the opponent is playing any rush down heavy character (Harley….) I might as well focus on their teammate and pray they doesn’t rush me all game because it’s impossible for me to out maneuver, let alone land any of my slower than slow moves before she combos me into the next match. Or hope that both players on the enemy team don’t make the very easy decision to juggle me for as long as humanly possible. I feel like he is able to be countered once you understand his inability to avoid being hit like other characters. And yes, I know about the grab combo, and purposely don’t use it because I feel like it shouldn’t be in the game. That doesn’t stop any Superman mains from grabbing my teammate at 0% from just the right spot and killing them. The games balance is strange indeed, but if people keep saying “IG is so broken” like some of these characters who are actually broken (looking at you Harley) they are just gonna nerf him again and again until he’s unplayable. Didn’t mean to rant on here like this, I just really respect your opinion on everything Multiversus and watch basically every video you drop as soon as I see the notification. It just kinda blindsided me that you included IG up there with characters like Harley and Batman in terms of being OP.
IG has the 5th highest win rate in the game for 2v2s, hes definitely not weak. admittedly, the majority of my experience on this game comes from 1v1s, I hardly ever play 2v2s, so I dont really feel qualified to talk about the balance of characters in that mode, when I mention that IG is stupidly op im mainly talking about 1v1s where he THRIVES
@@slushMV I feel what your saying. I’m on the opposite side of the spectrum in a sense since I mainly play 2v2s and just recently started getting back into the 1v1 scene. I don’t really know what makes him OP in 1v1s yet, I just genuinely enjoy playing IG in both modes now (except against Harley) and I got worried hearing you say he’s OP. I know how easily developers can “balance” a character into being unplayable and always fear that with IG. I have a ton of fun playing him but still feel completely outmatched by the more oppressive characters. Definitely respect your opinion on all things Multiversus and I hope you eventually do get into 2v2s in some way. I’d love to see your input on things over there.
The games not dying the true FGC is actually rlly small it just got mainstream attention at first
I agree with you 100% I was playing my main Rick and whenever I tried to use meeseeks it just didn't work and what pisses me off more is that he can destroy ur meeseeks with his stupid grapple hook at any time and my meeseeks are cool down too it's just rush down characters need to be worked on a lil bit so charactera like Rick just completely lose their abilities I was also playing against a taz with marvin and everytime I tried to use my space ship he just ate the space ship before the rocket came out sorry for the long comment 😅
That image is not a desink issue. That is just Arya. Go into training and test her charged forward air. It reaches behind her just as must as it does in front of her.
I’m having an issue where my enemy is at like 200 percent I hit them with a kill move, they gain percent from the hit and they start to fly off with knock back animation but instantly glitch back to on stage. Like I can’t kill them.
What's the mmr in the leaderboards?
To his point 2: characters, they could have missions that give ring outs or emotes for the lead up to the character releases
Yo this game I hope is being saved because I am starting my own series of ranked for this game and I can't wait for ranked but I have been having a terrible time with it because of SBMM i assume
Thank you so much Slush, I fully support and agree with literally everything you said. Except that Harley is OP😅. She's super hard to secure kills with in high level play as she doesn't have that one cheese move to secure kills like the rest of the meta especially now since her infinite is gone. I honestly think she's just a good character overall. Yes as you can tell I'm a Harley main 😂 but I really tried to look at her through an analytic lens.
So i want to add more to these points and my personal takes
1.Servers
Weirdly enough i rarely get 2 bar games,most are 3 bars but oh boy when those 2 bars appear i can feel it
2.Characters
While i understand the picks they had for Season 1 and appreciate some of them being "obscure" ,Season 2 needs more mainstream characters, everyone is waiting for Daffy, Ben 10 or Joker and yet we get characters that most of the playerbase wasn't even alive when they first appeared
I'm not against legacy characters being in the game but i feel like they are being added at the wrong time, i think characters like Samurai Jack or The Flash are going to be better for the game than the Wicked Witch or Beetlejuice at the moment and can help bring in players
3.Content
Just some ideas
Golden skin variations after getting 1000 wins (like the Golden Reindog)
Maybe the red or blue version of characters after 3000 ko's
Something like Test your Luck from Mortal Kombat
Endless arcade mode with a final score
Boss raids (like the Big Reindog)
Basketball (you already have the Space Jam map)
4.Balancing
Just wanna talk about the "make everyone op" idea,while the thought of "if everyone's super,no one will be" is not bad on paper ,you just get a game filled with broken mechanics and after 5 matches it would become pretty frustrating
They don't pick up the pace they are going to be left in the dust by other titles in 2023 (aka SF6,Tekken 8 and the next NRS game probably MK12)
The last thing you talked about , Taz is a character who other characters take his moves , ima level 21 Taz so far and bro it be hard ash sometimes to get your moves off against certain characters 🤦🏾♂️💯 still love Jake though😂🐐
I think the game needs more content, because currently all you can do is play a few games, the arcade mode is a disgrace with no reward and i think it deserves a rework. I also miss more maps, I'm tired of the Scooby doo mansion, tree fort and batcave
Give us ways to earn gleamium through playing is one way to keep ppl goal driven to play the game.
How do you find the win rates of characters?
Click your profile icon in the game and click each character and it gives the stats
@@Ccubed92 I think there might be some confusion. He says in the video that Gizmo and Marvin have the lowest win percentage in the game and I don't where to find a stat like that on the internet
Prestige skins would be dope
the rick point was really too relatable LMAOO
I think you see the game as a 1v1 too much sometimes. Don't get me wrong, it should be balanced for 1v1, but i just feel that most characters now (after the changes) have been awesome in 2v2. How to walk the line for a support character being good in 1v1, for example?
i think the challenge thing is great, they gotta make like hard easy challenges with the easy ones giving gold/battle pass xp and the hard ones should give gleamium or smth
As a Gizmo main. He's fine. No buffs needed I'm only top 300 with him so I'm still trash. Lol great video
They ever going to fix the coop vs ai on the Treehouse map?
Or finally release the Space Jam map?
Btw check out your mailbox, you should be getting a survey from the MultiVersus dev team asking for feedback (mostly for Ranked and e-sports but you can also give other feedback), maybe drop some of your thoughts there too
As someone who used to main gizmo, they gutted him. I agree with backpack nerf and car nerf but popcorn nerf was questionable. Now to use bow effectively, you have to have 2 abilities off cooldown. Just a bit overkill
Top 100 reindog. Your example of reindog vs taz is very incorrect. Sure, you have to watch out for his bite, but projectiles are incredible against taz's best options (dogpile and tornado). Its more like rock paper scissors, where i either predict bite and go for an up tilt/jab, or i can predict another move with a projectile.
I also wish they would focus on Rewards and make them cooler/ not just throw out rewards to make everyone happy. Like with the battle pass I didn’t rlly like the fact tht in every tier there’s a reward they should cut back and just focus on making Great rewards for the community. I have 300 hours on the game and lately haven’t been playing since too much, I hope ranked gets added back soon since and that they fix the ranked system because that was the only reason I eas playing the game
I don’t think it’s a game problem, it’s the genre. Casual players can only stay entertained by fighting games for so long
Really agree with the advertising point. Like he's not as popular as daffy but how are you just going to announce Marvin on the blog.
It’s crazy how no one talks about the monetization in this game it’s literally the worse I’ve seen almost every skin is $10 at least and you can barely buy anything with gold and what you can buy is ridiculous a Fred profile icon is 50k gold? Lmaoo I think they should have an option where you can buy skins with gold obviously it’ll be a lot more than purchasing the skin with gleamium but at least it’ll be worth the grind and something to actually grind for also give us gleamium in the premium battle pass
Ahh, I still remember the days where I would teleport non-stop, frequently killing me…
i think besides the servers, matchmaking and MMR played an important role in the Multiversus decline, take an example:
i'm 1400-1550 MMR with various characters and i have faced almost every 1000 - 100 global rank people, the thing is, the majority of them are farming MMR with one of them with an alter account and one character with barely 800 MMR, so... they always win ton of MMR but lose so little, that's not the problem per se, the problem is they match with new players and with really low players so frequently, the low players are overwhelmed and disappointed and most probably angry.
for instance, i'm being matched with a lot 10 millions in my team because i'm ~ 1450 MMR so i "should" carry them but it's impossible if the enemy team is a farming top 100 player, the worst is that you lose 40 MMR per set and you need to win 10 really sweaty matches without losing one to win 40 MMR back just to lose it again in 2 matches because your teammate afk.
the final result was that every 1100 - 1300 MMR player have left the game already, nowadays you only see 600 - 800 MMR players and 1700 - 2000 MMR players, nothing in between, because of that, solo queue is trash and you will never achieve nothing if you have no teammate like almost the entire playerbase
I just think we players are a little too impatient for things, the world is entering a new age of gaming and i don't know everything of course and I'm not trying to speak like I do, but i think people need to shut up and wait,things take time. Not trying start anything on your comment section just saying my opinion on things. Love your channel and the way you keep a level head on thus game.
I agree, people want everything too quick and the game would be worse if they got what they want. however, certain core things like servers and character balance should be quicker, they aren’t new content it’s just stabilizing their existing content
I’m fine with everyone being op kinda like brawlhalla where I feel like you can win with any character
Give one week at the beggining of a season where you can do a set of challenges to earn the battlepass for free. Or a week at the end of the battlepass instead of the beggining of a new one.
I think the balance in the game is weird because the keep Harley and buff her weaknesses as like wight speed the assassin debuff she ain’t crazy fast but can still move Wonder Woman is a tank but like incredible fast as a Rick main fighting half the roster is crazy due to them being rush down fighters love the game truly but the hit boxes and even the blast area is just hard to enjoy
Harley sucks now and so does this game it’s gonna die cause the devs are stupid and dnt listen to themselves but to everyone crying I know a bunch of ppl that quit cause of the nerfs every fn week makes no sense
100% agree with everything that came out your mouth
3:15 I agree with what you said but I see so many people commenting "too late" or "dead game" in the comments for Twitter and Instagram
Bait and trollers
How would you feel about having different charecter stats for 2v2 vs 1v1? I feel like in 2v2 most charecters are very viable, but I definitely see how in 1v1 charecters like batman or harley would be extremely oppressive
Harley isn’t too bad anymore now that her loops aren’t as strong. Batman and Arya are absolute cancer in 1s though
I think this a great idea but it might be hard to balence
I feel like the problem with nerfing and buffing based on win rate mean ms that if someone takes the time to do good with a character and learn how to play good with them their characters get nerfed so basically it’s get good and get nerfed do bad and get buffed
I am thinking about buying the premium multiversus pack but I am worried that the game will die do you think the game will go bankrupt and the servers will go down?
Good content BTW
it 100% won’t have servers shut down
Reindog VS Taz yes pain in the ass
my biggest complaint is the balance, its like a game of whack a mole where they fix one character per patch, than everyone flees to the other op characters, than they fix the other op character and in that same patch make another character op
If they stop taken things out like new stages people will stay they need to add new stages and characters like super smash bros did with dlc
Me I will come back to multiversus if it comes to switch
im top 28 now in 2s and 56 in 1s with Gizmo and it’s almost impossible to play against a high rank Finn, Batman or Stripe just bc of their speed.. other than that I don’t think Gizmo’s that bad tbh
Also just to complain some more why the f does WW have a move that combos into itself and leads up to a pretty easy spike??
Because she does about 3 dmg per hit and it typically take like a 6 hit combo to effectively get k0's lol. Ive got 700 ww wins and thats prob the most cheese youll ever see from her. Also that string only works before high dmg percents.
I'm not sure if these would count as a nerf to everyone but the game is in a desperate need for a whiff recovery overhaul cause too many characters have like no end lag on their moves
Finn's should bash is a perfect example of what whiff recovery should look and feel cause if you miss it you are completely defenseless for like a whole second and can be easily punished
I think every character should have advantages and disadvantages. Every character is usable in the game. Make the game fun, wachy. I'm kinda tired of every game being a sweat fest... HAVE COMPETITIVE AND CASUAL. But always focus on CASUAL First for the most players. It's not hard.
Level 27 gizmo here and it is so hard to win with him lol
I think they need to add skins for when you level 30 or something
Dude, remember when I was harping on you for putting Reindog at the bottom of your 1v1 tier list? He's been nerfed at least once or twice since then. He feels almost as bad to play as Gizmo and Marvin at this point. (Still glad I'm not playing Gizmo though.) If that's not another good example of the balance issues you're talking about, then I don't know what is. :/
This boy really pulled up to record a video lookin like Guile from Street Fighter
i don’t think harley is that broken i feel she’s kinda balanced and requires way more skill with her loop being out
Yeah....
I left this game a month or two ago and I came back cause I saw Marvin was released and I made a goal to main all looney tunes characters and I’ve already mastered bugs and Taz but Marvin is terrible. I can get wins with him and I’d like to say I’m good with him but he is just not a good character overall.
I was wondering why I sucked as stripe now lol
There is a serious problem with balancing when it comes to end and wiff lag. Characters are built COMPLETELY differently in this game and then all the moves are in the range of plus or minus 5-10 frames of end lag. It is straight up bad design. There GENUINELY needs to be an entire "wiff and end lag" update which just massively overhauls like half the moves in the game. Wiff lag in this game is legitimately so fucking broken.
The top characters are good because they can do anything and then immediately press another button. That issue is the worst with rush down, yet PFG has consistently done the most to fuck over any amount of passive projectile play which might slow these constant hitboxes.
This game is turning into a button spasm Fiesta with 0 thought put behind the combat-especially in 2v2s where you just want to throw out stacked hit boxes with two characters that never stop wiffing but can still remain pressure. There is zero risk in anything they do.
Harley, Batman, Finn, Wonder Woman, Arya, Jake and Shaggy are all seriously unfun to play against. There are just like 5 or 6 characters that just want me to stop playing. It's absolutely not fun to play against these braindead, no wiff lag, and no risk characters. Luckily, the DLC has been better in this regard but it's still shitty.
Literally the next day after I posted this PFG posted patch notes starting with:
Developer's Notes: Whiff Recovery
This patch is our first-pass at globally adding more risk into powerful attacks through whiff recovery. When you commit and miss an attack in many cases there will be a larger window for the opponent to punish.
PFG is GOATED
If you make comments on Giant, please make sure to specify. Calling giant OP and saying you don't gotta play the game with the character will cause another useless Nerf. A character that requires one of the highest skill ceilings to use, with only one usable move, shouldn't be openly called to be nerfed or history will repeat and they nerf his already worst In game full kit when half of it still don't even work. The devs definitely watch these videos if they know of nakt
Edit note: never look at win rate out of context. Win rate says nothing without other stats. Take giant, for example, since he's been called out a lot in this video. He has the top 3-4 lowest pick rate, the top 3-4 lowest usage rate in matches to boot. And literally the top 1-2 average mmr in the game. All those together paint a bigger , clearer picture than the win rate. Win rate for balance kills games, especially when they have a low pickrate since their stats are determined by the few people that even use them
I think this game focuses way too much on 2s, as there is a large following that only plays ones.
Balancing becomes difficult because of this
You have some sound arguments, I think balancing should be a combination of win rate, play time, and skill ceiling, this can likely determine character's strengths and weaknesses, so you can add/remove/tinker with cooldowns or nerf/buff attacks/movement/etc
Also the leveling system is way too grindy, you're playing characters with little to no results or trying to play the battle pass with no results and it's annoying, not fun, I understand you can't just blow through the pass or levels in a few days but it shouldn't take forever cause of obnoxious amounts of xp needed
Just like you I want the game to thrive, but monetarily, systematically, and through entertainment, they need to really put players first. I know it ain't easy, but they do need to get a grip, I can handle a few late character additions to fix the game.
I hate how they made the xp for leveling up characters harder they said they wanted it to be a journey but they instead made it a god damn idiotic grind.
I agree, it's my biggest issue with the game now, the level system was fine at first, sure it was a bit of a grind but it still was rewarding
Now it's an annoying grind which makes no sense, it artificially increases play time rather than naturally
Begging for them to watch this video
I hope they give us at least one map ban in rank
Did they release the game too early?
I think we need to stop asking for new content while we still got problems with the game. The thing that annoy me the most is the waiting in this game, every time you boot up the game wait in que it takes SO LOOOONG! I literally have to wait two full minutes every time i want to open the game. And even after you are finding a match you have to wait for loading, perk select, see the enemy's perks, another loading, a black screen, character animations, and THEN the match starts, with again waits so much time. Also why i cant leave during a match? There's literally no excuse for that. I want to rage quit without waiting a full 2 minutes long loading everytime.
i know Multiversus is balanced around 2s, but the lack of balancing in 1s is kinda frustrating tbh, feels like they don’t care about that part of the community at all
10:32 so true, reindog can't win against a good taz
I used to be top 100 bugs and now I just don’t play because the game feels like it’s not finished. I know the developers put in a lot of effort but it just isn’t fun for me anymore
Ok y’all hate Marvin to much bc personally as a 15,000 Marvin don’t rly play him much but I always win with him
There’s no incentive to play MVS besides doing BP and Daily challenges because there’s no ranked
