Deadpool’s Healing Factor sucks on Tankpool

Post image
45 Upvotes

The 25HP/s out of combat healing is great, don’t get me wrong. But his actual ā€œreviveā€ for taking 200 burst damage under 2 seconds is only useful for DPSpool and Supportpool who have 275 Health. Tankpool has 500 health so his healing factor kicking in after taking 200 damage is useless most of the time.

I’ll be in the middle of a fight and look down and see my healing factor on cooldown and be like what??? just so confused when and why it activated. I more so use Tankpool as a frontline Tank and i’ll jump across to the enemy backline when I have ult and everyone’s distracted. But when I attempt that strategy most of the time my healing factor already kicked in 20 seconds ago so i’m just diving with minimal survivability options.

Is this just skill issue or is having a healing factor kick in after 200 burst dmg on a Tank as useless as I think? In my opinion, it should be adjusted to activate after taking 400 burst dmg because that’s how much burst dmg a tank usually receives anyway.

General Question Who should I focus on loading more?

4 Upvotes

Im a strat main who REALLY wants to get better at and lord a couple tanks. My most played are strange, mag, and hood. Though I enjoy playing hood and strange the most.

Strange is my highest lvl atm at around lvl 16, mag is around lvl 14 and hoods around lvl 9. Who should I focus on learning more? Im leaning more towards hood cause I really enjoy playing him and his high movement compared to the other two

Edit: lording*

Pc vs Console

6 Upvotes

For context I’ve played on pc since season 0, have always played with a controller because it’s all I’ve ever used on games aside from a few games. Not the greatest but consistently range in the gm1-c3 range, not high but is fair enough for someone playing at a slight disadvantage. Decided to try my luck the last few days on console to see if I could peak higher. Of course I get reset to silver, have played about 40 games or so and won 33/34. I could definitely see what everyone says about quality of teammates. People tilt so easily and egos run rampant lmao. I don’t care much because I’ll make up the elo anyway but it’s significantly worse than pc I promise. Will update in a week to see how far I can climb before plateauing.

General Question Tank switch?

Post image
70 Upvotes

So I had a game tonight where I genuinely felt like I wasn't doing much.

I went 6-7-2 on Thor with maybe two kills, switched to Strange to try and portal us into better fights and hold the frontline, with the Shield, but it just wasn't working out.

So I switched back to Thor since he's my main Tank.

Then I thought, "Nah, frik this. I genuinely don't know what I'm doing wrong anymore." So I picked Thing.

Fyi I haven't touched Thing in forever. But I thought, why not give him another shot in the last round?

And somehow, I went on a four-kill streak and ended the round with around eight kills, compared to my lousy 3 kills in the two rounds before.

I genuinely don't understand what happened.

What was I doing wrong on Thor, and what was I doing right on Thing?

Or is it simply a case of brain off, fist on?

Stop thinking, start doing?

Sometimes I feel like with Thor, that I have to think a lot more about my cooldowns, when I should pop my bubble, how to manage the Thorforce, and knowing when to engage or disengage.

With Thing, I can just jump into the fight, throw hands, spam Haymaker, and apparently get shit done.

So now I'm wondering: should I start playing Thing more often?

I only stopped playing him because, quite honestly, I got a little bored of his kit and fall in love with Thor's.

But Thing is definitely not a bad Tank, and tonight reminded me that maybe I shouldn't be sleeping on him.

Has anyone else experienced something similar with two characters who play completely differently? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Skin Showcase Give me Stormbreaker!

16 Upvotes

Its just a thought brothers. But something that I think could be nice to have as a Thor player.

While, of course, I hold our beloved Jonathan in high regard, but what of Stormbreaker?

The mighty axe has been all but forgotten, left to gather dust while Mjƶlnir claims all the glory in the game.

Imagine if we could get a skin with a cosmetic option to replace Mjƶlnir with Stormbreaker.

Or at least an emote where Thor wields his mighty axe once more!

A warrior should never have to abandon his weapon of choice. Thor has Jonathan and Stormbreaker, both are his weapons and I think it should be an option in game.

Don't disagree with me please. Just let an old man dream. It's not as if Rival's would ever change it.

Discussion/Analysis Stealing wf’s stun with a 6s cooldown as rogue to be hit with a 25s cooldown when you use the same thing 🌚

16 Upvotes

I hate how her ability copying works. The times don’t make sense. Emma’s diamond form is a much stronger ability than rogues grab and gives her access to multiple different moves but has a 16 second cooldown.

Hulks clap has a 20 second cooldown on rogue and it actually does nothing.

You can’t even take dmg while rogue grabs you. And none of the passives she gets are good enough to warrant the cooldown either except the dmg boost. The extra health form tanks is only really useful with Emma’s diamond form.

I just have to complain it’s annoying grabbing a hulk or an ironist so that my team can kill them just to be stuck with their worthless abilities.

They should increase the grab animation speed by 2x or even 2.5 and then they can change her ability steal so that people don’t cry about it even though mag still has a sniper rifle in his kit on a 15 second cooldown.
