Thread: Team-based PvP third-person shooter Marvel Rivals announced for PC
Ya punisher is kind of boring but he can melt people especially newbs. He is great for low level play. But you don't see him much in ranked because. He is basically hang back and shoot. Which gets boring after a few games. He really lacks mobility. He is basically a tank with DPS health.
I used to rock mantis but sue is my favourite. Just a great kit. Every loves Luna but I never got into her. Might try some cloak and dagger.
I like healers because they have a defined role and you can still get kills while helping your team.
I rarely if ever play tanks which seems to be pretty common actually. In QP your lucky if you get 1 tank. In Ranked you usually get 1 tank at most. Meanwhile you will have teams pf 4 or 5 DPS or 3 healers. No one really wants to play tanks. Doesn't help that the tank roster is kind of ass. Venom and Peni? Rather play spider man. Thor is not movie thor. Cap is cool but he is weak. Strange and Magneto are the best ones but I find they aren't great at killing. I think I rarely see tanks as MVPs or leading their teams.

I always snap a picture of my MVPs and text my brother that he should watch tips and tricks videos to troll him.

At least in Quickplay, I get a decent amount of MVPs as Strange. It's a tough class to do that with, but if everything is lining up right, I can fucking destroy as Strange. Like I will have more damage than the DPS people while also blocking 20-30K of damage with my shield, and also most kills, etc.

Or, I get on a team that fucking sucks and Strange is the most frustrating thing to ever attempt playing.

punisher is ranked is best used in spurts....if the other team is pushing points hard generally a couple of rounds using him and the turrent makes them back off a little bit or the team spends their time trying to figure out which vantage point you are sitting at to unload on.

Punisher is probably also the best counter to Arial players like Ironman ive found....hawkeye leaves you to open if you get rushed by melee
he is also good for clearing off groot walls

Ya if you get a team that decides to counter him they can take him down. His mobility is ass. If you catch teams sleeping he can dominate but if a team is good they can take him out
But ya he does shred iron man's and storms. His shotgun AR is a great combo especially since his weapons reload after 3 seconds bolstered.
I think he is a great starter hero especially if you are coming from online fps shooters.
 
We had a ranked match earlier that was so insanely unbalanced that my brother just got curious and started clicking on the enemy team names and looking at their profiles.

We were Bronze 1, and 3 of the players on the other team had their highest rank listed as Gold 2 and shit like that. Why we were ever given that match is beyond me. But then we started getting normal ones again and ranked up to Silver 2 in like 4 or 5 straight wins. Really odd ranking matchmaking going on.

Punisher actually has amazing mobility if you can think ahead. You can clear insane distances with proper zipline placement and practically teleport out of fights, and his smoke grenade has a lot more utility than youd think too.

His zipline is to slow to use for escapes. And his smoke is great to knock you back but it doesn't create much room especially against a fast melee character. He is slow AF might be the slowest hero. At least as slow as a tank.
Yes his zipline is great to get to good turret spots and you can use it to cover a lot of ground if you jump off of it. But when I say mobility I mean being able to escape or move fast. He's basically a low hp tank. If a melee hones in on you your pretty much done. Even popping a smoke to push you back only buys you a little space.
His mobility is only good if your in the clear away from battle. But if your in the front lines you can get shredded because you don't have any escape options.
He's best played far back and using the turret to control lanes. Poking with the AR and if you have a healer vacking you up getting up close with the shotty.
But ya if he had more mobility he would be a bit too OP so he is balanced.
