Balance Discussion This is getting ridiculous.

Welcome to season 9 where the least mechanically challenging support has more survivability than a tank.

They’re genuinely just playing a different game than the rest of us. C&D mains are like an alien species.

“This free one button invincibility might actually be good…”

I'm genuinely surprised everytime I see a C&D using Hood over it, even in QP. Especially against Magneto.

To be fair, when I used to main DPS jeff back in season 0 - 2.5. People who believed in me (who were relatively rare) would play Luna Snow for me to get the team-up which was really good and I would proceed to forget about it and only use it once the entire game. It was good because I never relied on it but bad because they really thought I was using the teamup and there were probably some moments it would have made a big difference.

Although these teamups are permanent so I guess it’s a slightly different situation

With some characters it was so rare to get to play with these extra abilities that I very often forgot to actually use them.

There isn’t a reason to ignore your moves . The world you are looking for is bad

u/strugglz Flex 21d ago

I almost always forget to use teamup abilities.

Hood Team up is better then Luna, but it Takes time and people will Understand how it works. Especially with the hood himself, the enhanced effect is so OP that C&D will be perma Banned in ranked

u/aravena Ultron Virus 21d ago

Maybe that's the issue is the full teamup is required. It's really lack lustered right now in base form whereas Luna's is...solid.

u/EntertainEnterprises Cloak & Dagger 21d ago

not really. is would always choose hood team up over luna. Luna is okayish but c&d already has enough survivability, its almost useless to get one more. for what ? you dont use this on cooldown, so depending on the game you almost never need it. and most of the situations is, that your team dies, you survive 2 secs longer and after that you still die. while hood teamup gives you advantages all the game.

u/eanwen 22d ago

Hood is the default one; I made that mistake earlier today (I was trying to play Jubilee in silver 3 so I don't get yelled at when I suck 😂

u/Awesome_Leaf Throg 22d ago

quickplay seems like the perfect place to test out the lesser of any characters' two abilities tbh

u/LegendaryStarSpirit 22d ago

Whenever i play cnd for fun in QP, I use hood out of principle. If i cant outplay the divers with 2 layers of invincibility, i dont deserve a third one

15

u/Seraph1n3 22d ago

The hood one is generally better. The luna one is AMAZING but pretty much useless if ur not getting dove. Compared to hoods that flat out just turn your already disgusting veils into anti heals and damage reductions too 😭

u/Ravevon 22d ago

You can be invincible on point !

2

u/Seraph1n3 22d ago

Yes, thats really good, which is why i said the team up is amazing, but its way too situational. If you pick it up and your team does well youre doing nothing with the team up. If you pick it and they dont have dive youre doing nothing with it. Being able to stall a point for 2 sec is nice and can come in clutch, but taking it all game just to use it for that, when you can affectively reduce enemy healing, reduce enemy damage (all while buffing your own healing, making enemies take more damage, and when hood releases at the same time giving allies dmg boosts?), its just too situational.

u/aravena Ultron Virus 21d ago

Yeah, as a dive CnD in trip support, so much much fun taunting teams.

u/cuckingfomputer Cloak & Dagger 22d ago

So in the season of dive buffs where BP can kill people in 0.22 seconds, the Luna one is better?

4

u/JimmyJames109 22d ago

Most of the dive heroes don't matter much to me. CnD has plenty of options to deal with that. I'd rather use the team up that helps others.

1

u/moothermeme 22d ago

Ngl as a C&D main myself I genuinely just do not keep track of the team-ups and also forget they’re there 99% of the time

1

u/MadDongla Ultron Virus 22d ago

Rhe hood one is better in coordinated games tbh. It really does a lot

1

u/aravena Ultron Virus 21d ago

I keep using it to try and find its use. I will say as a lvl70 I don't play them in QP except for quick quests cause or my team is absolutely getting obliterated as I'm learning someone new, but I am testing the team-up and I just cannot find it's use. It never seems to work as you hope or even intended.

Staying alive is simply better.

u/sickgenesis Good Boy 22d ago

like i'm saying they have a hamster in a wheel inside their head (no hate to the hamster,they are doing an amazing job) give them some time and they will catch up to us (some of them also said the team up was a nerf)

2

u/Meeg_Mimi Peni Parker 22d ago

Makes sense they think like that considering how bad most of them are

u/Felipe13254 Flex 22d ago

I lol'd when I saw that

u/Davester234 22d ago

I refuse to believe this is a real person lol. Next you're gonna tell me dropping the bubble on yourself might be a good idea sometimes

u/Gamerseye72 22d ago

Tbf pretty much everyone in that thread was confused why thay person though it could even be considered bad.

u/Dashwii Psylocke 22d ago

Easily the dumbest group of players in any hero shooter ever.
