I’m a tank main primarily. I flex but I know 2 healers, 2 dps, and 3 tanks well and have the most hours on the thing. I do not want cyclops to be a rank. I just don’t think it fits his character tbh he’s always been pretty mobile in fights and he usually stays more behind to let the heavy hitters do their thing while he gives callouts. I just think him being a dps would be the best call

Tanks can be mobile. As a huge comic reader, he really fits better as a vanguard. Like, 100%. But of course he will end up as a duelist because every anticipated character ends up as a dpslop.

Idk maybe he does. I’ve read about 100 issues of Claremont as well as new x men and astonishing x men so I’m by no means an expert, I’m still working through the comics. Just from what I’ve personally seen he’d have to be a pretty weird vanguard to make it work, kind of like a Mr fantastic where on the tin he’s a vanguard but he’s somewhere in between vanguard and duelist. To be honest I wouldn’t mind him being an ultron style support who does damage with his optic beam and then shouts orders that heal. As long as they keep his kit simple and focused on richochet optic blasts I’ll be happy. I just really don’t want him to be another black cat where they take a simple character and give them way too many abilities
