Been maining Reed since the second he came out so I'm quite comfortable with him at this point, but this still plugged some holes in my gameplay. Thanks.
It's actually so cool how they designed him in game. He's a smart character, meaning you don't really need insane mechanical skills, you just need to be smart. His entire kit comes to how you use your skills and make microdecisions depending on the match. Target priority, game sense and juggling abilities is key and that feels like how Reed Richards would actually play Mr. Fantastic.
I subscribed because of the dad joke about being flexible. I said the same thing today in game. Salute. (I really meant I could play whatever the team needed but I was playing Mr. Fantastic at the time.)
Extra tip for people who keep dying during his ult: if you trigger his inflated state from his passive and then immediately use your ult, you’ll have a nice extra 400 hp to protect you from that one punisher who gets heart eyes when he hears you yell “FANNNTASTIC!!!”
I kinda became a one trick mr fantastic this season as I find him to be a better Thor and after almost 20 hours I think I have mastered him. This is the video that I’ve seen that explains him best. You get the character. I can tell you’re making a big mistake looking at your gameplay though. I know it’s counterintuitive as with other characters you want to do the opposite but don’t save your cooldowns. Spam them. Shield an ally , jump towards an enemy. Doesn’t matter. Even if you don’t hit your grab, it doesn’t matter. Cooldowns are so short, it won’t make a difference (the only exception being invulnerability). ALWAYS edge your elasticity above 70% doing that. Be ready to jump any enemy and instantly transform for an easy kill. You should always be one move away from transformation. The only times you want to use your primary repeatedly is when you’re waiting for your cooldowns.
as a ramattra main Mr.Fantastic plays exactly like him. Only difference it's in the dps role. I've mostly been treating him as a "bodyguard" For attack you need to apply pressure with the tanks and once you are at 70%, grapple your way into the backline to harass the supports. On defense just chill with supports and deny the enemy from getting in the back line. one cool tip i learned once you reached 100% you have a small window to get into that shield mode to further extended your cool downs. so once your shield mode runs out, you turn into a tank as well have all of your cool downs ready for the next tank mode.
"useless to those who think the scoreboard tells the entire story if a match" THANK GOODNESS SOMEONE SAID IT. Plat players think they did good because they did more damage or blocked more, BIG NUMBER = BETTER. Reality is, they are just dumping damage into a tank that was getting healed and their blocks provided no value while everyone built up ults. Im actually singleing out supports and staying alive rather than just inting in, then my team gets mad because its a "bad character" and I become the villain even if I switch unless I hard carry. I kid you not I had 16k blocked and two only two deaths in a failed first round push, and they got mad because "tanks did more damage and blocked more than me" despite actually doing nothing to change the match and dying more often. On defense, I switched to a DPS I am not as comfortable with, and wouldnt ya know it our tanks started getting run over, and then blamed it on my for not doing enough dps. Literally lose-lose situation in low elo with stupid players.
Quick tip for new Mr fantastics you don’t need to hit your extended grip all you need to do is hit the ability and you gain 30 elasticity and same w the combo the grab takes too long so if you hit the grab do the shield grab right away and it cancels out and still adds to your elasticity meter
Something to note, if you are at 70 or higher charge, you can right click the ground to quickly inflate to save yourself in dire situations, you don't need to use it offensively as latching to someone makes it take way longer
A little bonus tech I just figured out if you do your infinite life plus C with sue storm right as you transform to tank form it gives you 950 health instead of 800 keep that in your back pocket
I was able to get into competitive with Reed. Once you learn his set and be smart with it you can easily... Get back at every season 0 character that got on your nerves showing that their damage input is meaningless and stretch to your true dominant state. 😈 Try me iron fist, run wanda, take your best shot Hawkeye for i am not only IMORTAL BUT ALSO FANTASTIC!!!!
I never get why people don’t talk about the MOST IMPORTANT part of his character. His attacks linger in the air, keep their hitbox, and follow your cursor. You can hit as many people as you can flick to while his arm is out

Net ease cooked with this for most characters. People claim tanks aren’t fun but they seem awesome to me. Maybe rocket is the one I’d say is off
You Can ult ig
also he's incredibly Xbox friendly, which makes me very happy!

He is talking about that in the video

Yesss
you should still time them regardless of how fast so u can combo cleanly

I wish he had a movement ability that didnt rely on an another player.
Something like turning into a ball shape and bouncing
Word bro
the default walk speed is soooo slow lol
maybe if they made his trap move grapple onto an object with the downside of not adding to the elasticity bar
@AlbertWesker-uk3uv if it did more damage then yes. Its his skill check to nail that move and the power hump to turn into mister chad

I wish the grab would stun so you dont get wrecked as you pull them in
I already got the maker skin but i’ve been doing worse with him after the first day hopefully these tips help me get better with him
ONE WIDE STRETCHY BOI
A little bonus tech I just figured out if you do your infinite life plus C with sue storm right as you transform to tank form it gives you 950 health instead of 800 keep that in your back pocket
The only time mister is a tank replacement is if they go wolverine. I don't think I've ever died to wolverine as mister.
I find him to work very well as a second tank if you have a dr strange. He works best as dps with other tanks though.
@DoctorSilence95 also pairs well with groot
He can be a tank but never rely on him as one, plz don't, I am on my hands and knees begging someone choose another tank.
@@nonnon-existent hes not a tank hes a flex role but he def isnt a main tank option if no one is one lol

with stretch you can not one shot lower hp enemies, it does max 180
support tank
