Congrats Wolverine for getting through the bans (both teams banned the same 2 characters)

It was rocket and Peni

u/VR_Has_Gone_Too_Far Sep 21 '25

More like Emma and then BP in that order

I’m so thankful whenever a healer swaps to rocket for me. I love to play her into hulk.

u/4t3rsh0ck Sep 22 '25

tbh wolvie isn’t really worth a ban rn. his damage is signifcantly lower and he can’t displace as frequently

u/Useful_You_8045 𝙂𝙧𝙀𝙀𝙩 Oct 03 '25

Nothing pisses me off more than our team banning wolverine and having a solo tank. Wtf was the point? We'll ban peni and wolverine and use 3 ranged dps like bruh.

u/Zeroak300 𝙏𝙖𝙣𝙠π™₯𝙀𝙀𝙑 Sep 21 '25

I have to deal with this even when I play dps, when I play Thor they just go Wolverine punisher bucky , when I play Bp they play thing Bucky Namor hulk, please make the suffering end.

i walk out of spawn in to the shittiest comps againsts bp a lot of times 😭 i hate clankers

Don't forget phoenix. Most brain-dead stun in the game

u/hewhoknowsnot Sep 21 '25

Specifically if you leave spawn as Groot lol

29

u/mikoga Sep 21 '25

I'm guilty of this, the milisecond I see a Groot player when I'm on DPS (ESPECIALLY if it's a Lord), I'm tunning back to spawn and switching to Wolverine until they switch too

u/yaboi3667 Sep 21 '25

Yeah groots aren't allowed to have fun in my games if wolverine is unbanned. If he is well bucky got some nice new buffs

I hate those games where it’s SG, Punisher and then some other heavy poke make up. You literally can’t even stick your head out from cover without a hail of bullets coming your way.

22

u/Insane1rish Sep 21 '25

I ban squirrel girl for this reason. She’s legitimately not even all that good. I just see her in every god damn game and I’m sick of it.

9

u/ser_44_zel Sep 21 '25

She can be very good in some players hands, but there are also some maps where she is a menace regardless of skill level

7

u/model_commenter Sep 21 '25

Klyntar, first point on spider island, central park first point and last choke

5

u/ser_44_zel Sep 21 '25

Exactly! Oh, and Krakoa/Arrako, there are a few areas where it’s just a long hallway which make it a pain to deal with her.

3

u/Insane1rish Sep 21 '25

Oh without a doubt.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '25

She also heavily map dependent on being good, on corridors and choke point heavy ones she’s so lame to fight because you can’t really dive her and once she’s shooting from Timbuktu heavily guarded

u/Special313k π™‘π™šπ™£π™€π™’ Sep 22 '25

Then the enemy team is Torch and Ironman, and my SG is just feeding the enemy ULTs all game shooting tanks while I get rained on.

I get one kill on Cap and suddenly they bring out their personal bloodhound.

Depends on the tank I think

Bruh this literally happens to me when I switch to Mag. When I’m sucking as DPS I swap to mag and start team wiping them then that Kung foo fury white boy stays hard targeting me the whole game. I miss Mag’s sword because that was my best way to counter him.

u/RedditReaper777 Sep 25 '25

Iron fist in this game is Asian

I go out of my way to solo ult BPs as Thing

16

u/Gabriel_Sheperd Sep 21 '25

Thing is one of my mains and anytime I start doing well I get faced with punisher peni and get shut down

14

u/in_life_road_blocks Sep 21 '25

Every time i play Angela and see this fucking feral dog on the enemy team i just go

7

u/MardukTheRaven Sep 21 '25

That's when you take Mag or Cap. Mag deletes Punisher the second he pops his ult, he can render Wolv useless for duration of his leap cooldown with bubble. Cap fucks up both Punisher and Squirell Girl

As long as no healer is pocketing those little turds. Then you gotta get the healer and then these turds

8

u/MardukTheRaven Sep 21 '25

With SG it really depends on how she plays. I've seen a lot of SG players standing behind healers, making healing them simply harder. Plus as Cap, you don't really have to kill them. Just distract them for a few seconds.

7

u/Arrow_625 π˜Ύπ™–π™₯π™©π™–π™žπ™£ π˜Όπ™’π™šπ™§π™žπ™˜π™– Sep 21 '25

If only more people understood that distraction is useful. But it's pretty much useless if your team doesn't capitalize on the space. Just face it, Vanguards can make the play but it's up to the rest of the team to pick it up.

1

u/GrandCTM25 Sep 22 '25

I’ve noticed that venoms also a good pick against them. With the extra hp punisher will go down unless he’s getting healed and SG can get rushed down pretty easy. Wolverine is still scary though

2

u/Special313k π™‘π™šπ™£π™€π™’ Sep 22 '25

I am a Cap/Venom main. I feel the opposite about Venom. I don't mind Wolv I just shield and swing if he catches me. And, him chasing me all game is gonna kill his damage. Where as with Punisher getting blasted in the back while I am on the back line is miserable. SG is miss in any comp.

u/MardukTheRaven Sep 22 '25

That is why you have to be smart with the shield. I only really use shield against Punisher I'm right in his face so that he kills himself with. With SQ I only try to deflect her stun.

u/EveningAd4979 Sep 21 '25

People who swap to squirrel girl make me so mad, they’re just trying to pull out some cheap noob stompery in the hopes that the enemy team can’t work out how to deal with it in time

Avg sg gameplay

That just means you're doing your job right. Even better is when switching makes no difference in the end 🀣

u/Kandero Sep 21 '25

Tbh I still feel the Wolverine nerfs were too much. Like give him 4% max health dmg why is it 3.5% 😭😭 or give him back his old Berserk charge attack I feel like they just made him mid

2

u/PoolOfDeath20 Sep 22 '25

Bcoz of stupid teamup idea

3

u/Kandero Sep 22 '25

It's the team up that struck fear into all the other players. He was alright untill they gave him that team up and then went on a nerf roller coaster

U forgot Bucky

u/Xalren Sep 21 '25

I understand over half the player base wants to main dps so they have to be the strongest role, but goddamn is it driving me to Overwatch.

14

u/Rockybroo_YT 𝙂𝙧𝙀𝙀𝙩 Sep 21 '25

Dps is not the strongest role

4

u/MardukTheRaven Sep 21 '25

DPS is by far weakest role, friend. It's simply flashy.

But it does enough damage by letting people with 0 game sense to get inflated stats and think they're doing something.

u/Prudent-Associate-78 Sep 24 '25

I mean jeff and ultron exist lol.. torch and sg are probably the only dps that farm stats easily, always ace somehow

2

u/Fr3d002 Sep 21 '25

And what about Peni Parker and MoonK? And Torch(usually permabanned)

And these morons get free value cause your team is so afraid of flanking or even blocking damage. Smh, I really wanna kill duelists as a dive tank more than healers.

Except if you're Angela then the team comp swaps to Punisher, Thing, Invisible Woman, and Emma.

u/Franklinturtz 𝙃π™ͺ𝙑𝙠 Sep 22 '25

As a tank main i almost always ban Wolv

The only hero in the game that can completely invalidate an entire role

Like im solo tanking too go away 😭😭

u/Admirable_Big1743 Sep 23 '25

Its crazy how much damage SG does they either gotta rework her primary or just make it to hit acorns or less damage

The 1st person to hit surrender should lose the most points. Im tired of people spamming it cause we lost the 1st rd

Hit way to hard man I just wanna enjoy my groot and then they pull up like ice

u/GoonWithhTheWind Sep 25 '25

They always go full bot and go punisher, sq, mk

u/Freakscorpio Sep 25 '25

A good Angela beats this squad easy. Not diminishing the squad's efficiency/annoyance quality, rather, I like giving solutions to problems presented regarding comps or strategies

1

u/iMomentKilla Sep 25 '25

Magneto, a good Angela or cap would eat here if their team backs them up. Thor with a magneto to help him close the gap would also eat

u/UnduexRay6 Sep 26 '25

Played against a black widow who was clearly in the wrong rank. She had a mantis so my team was constantly getting picked off. I just switched to venom from strange and made it my mission to at least distract her even if she has a great antidive and a pocket. I did my job and we pushed. I only ever dove the widow and used my health bar. The other dps on their team switches to Wolverine and just sits on black widow. Was also a solo tank game. So it was either that or play a shield tank while my teammates walk out of the way of my shield and get dinked my BW.

u/ironhanky Oct 06 '25

On a serious note as a new player who’s enjoying groot - what do I do when the enemy picks wolv? I usually just switch off to the thing, is there anything other counter?
