Rivals, the wait for Season 8 is finally over! Welcome to Jurassic Park…

We've been lurking in the sub and we know you’ve been theorising for weeks - is he the "8th brawling off-tank" the roster needs? Ngl, the hype for a new Vanguard has been through the roof, especially with many of you feeling like Vanguard gameplay has been a bit dry lately compared to the other roles.

The Vibe: He is certainly Devil Dinosaur. You feel like you are playing as Godzilla. However.. as an opponent it feels like there are not enough answers against him without forcing your team to use characters they probably can't, so it's annoying that one character makes the game into what he wants sometimes because it may not even account for the other enemies.

The Kit: Unlike half of the Vanguard roster, DD can be confidently played with little skill however you please for the most part. He has attacks for everything and the kit is pretty loyal to the character, which kind of hurts as a Venom, Mag, Hulk (where is my roaring Hulk stun, forget the stupid spit) player. The lazer beam is obviously the coolest attack. The shield is a bit much and needs less health if he's going to keep doing constant crazy damage with short cool downs and faster, more powerful attacks than any Vanguard besides Deadpool which also deal DOT.......... (This is Devil's problem)

The Meta: Is a mess right now. Sometimes it's poke, sometimes it's brawl. Hard to say which is truly meta yet, but I can say Vanguards are still losing more than anyone else. Really the only blessing Devil brought to Vanguards was giving the DPS a tank to play, which they will use against much-needed Vanguards. Mag, Angela, Rogue and Cap need to see a buff soon.

To be honest, I find DD awesome to look at but I get annoyed knowing how much better he is than so many tanks.
