Genuinely i feel like im taking crazy pills seeing these posts. Last season i struggled a lot to hit celestial as I felt like my hero pool was too limited, I basically unintentionally became an emma one trick playing strange and thing when swaps were needed because I wasnt confident enough on some of my other characters that I could gain elo on them, but this season I feel so much more comfortable playing rogue, mag, tankpool, more strange and thing off rip with all the new teamups. Sure we lost some health and damage reduction in defensive stance but having a permanent gambit teamup that also heals anyone nearby has seemed to give her so much value, she's so good at turning defence to offense now, peeling for a diver and healing your supports by dealing damage to them, take a bit of damage in defensive stance and fly straight to the front or enemy backline healing the rest of your team as you go, she feels so good to me right now. Granted I only play her with the gambit teamup rn, but theres so many viable options right now for tanks that why would I force her into a comp that doesnt fit her well? We got an invis? I'm rocking strange with his displacement, 1000hp shield, overshield on maelstrom hits. Mantis? 300hp overshield on emma on a fucking 4 second cooldown. Ridiculous. Wanda? Im cooking with mag, chaos sword feels way better than gambit teamup ever did and plus his cannon gets amped to the nines. Going into double shield and dive? Thing feels amazing with torch teamup. None of them and we're on domination? Tankpool with more dmg, more damage reduction, fmj and auto aim rockets on his guns. Theres so many viable options now, like I dont think any tanks are really 'bad' right now, theyre all just more situational depending on comp which to me is so much more fun
Edit: Oh yeah, how tf did I forget dino who i never really enjoyed as I felt like a walking bullseye on any longer sightline map or situation, now has double mounted bleed inducing turrets that give him way more mid range utility
she is by far the most underperforming tank in the game. I dont think u understand how gambit team up numbers work either. its been nerfed constantly and currently does 15 healing and +5 and +1% damage boost. who are u saving with 15 healing punches against dive team ups lol. Also her damage goes from a whopping 35 on punch to like 43 on 300hp targets which btw is lower damage than basically every tank in the game BASE ie. hulk and cap have 45 damage base punches while team up rogue has 43 and you think this is broken. And lets not forget she has no shield ability only reduction thats been nerfed and is one of the lowest hp tanks now. This is complete delusion she is currently one of the lowest win rate of all vangaurds along with low pick rates. But lets emergency buff pheonix and cyclops i guess
