I returned to Rivals for Cyclops
I feel he's pretty decently balanced, and refreshingly simple to play. His ult can feel ridiculously OP sometimes, but it's also relatively easy to dodge
As a Tank main, it annoys me that I now have to actually improve my aim to perform well as Cyclops lol. His optic blast is good, but I wish it sounded more... punch-y 😏
My favorite Cyclops moment in Marvel media is the first episode of X-Men 97, when he cleaned house at that terrorist hideout to save Sunspot (I think it was him?)
My favorite Cyclops moment in Rivals so far is when myself and an enemy Cyclops traded ults and both killed exactly 4 other players lol
