This thing has very obvious engagment optimizing matchmaking to a point where you even wonder why play at all. You're literally just coinflipping in ranked. You lose so many matches at char select it's not even funny, and QM doesn't really provide the structure to actually enjoy the game as you'll often just smash against the rocks of a team that actually picks healers and tanks.

And the matches are LONG, too. The better you are the longer you can hang in there, so it's the same good player penalty style that League and Overwatch had where if you dare do even REMOTELY well, you just get paired with potatos who will make your every match miserable. I gotta make a secondary account where I deliberately throw every game and just stop sandbagging in the last minute, see if I can take that to Diamond.

I like playing The Punisher. I like blowing Wolverine's brains out with my shotgun whenever he tries to do anything. I like unloading a clip into Iron Man while he floats around like a gay fairy. I like demolishing Groot's walls in a second with my turret. I like zipline-jumping a third of the map faster than Spiderman can.

Nothing makes me happier than when that Magika bitch tries to wipe a healer only for me to place two shotgun blasts between the eyes, dropping her in seconds. Idk why other DPS characters are more commonly used; when you're on a roll with Frank you can easily carry, provided your team comp isn't complete dogshit.

I like pocketing Punishers as Rocket. Nothing beats throwing down a Rocket ult right as Punisher starts his ult. The only thing I hate is that Punisher attracts a fuckton of FPS COD fags that don't know what they're doing and die like chumps.

I act like a bodyguard for our team's Rocket when we have one. When they pop that infinite-ammo relay just right, my GOD.

Sexy blonde woman about to make marvel a shitload of cash.

And BTFO anime girl games as well.

And I would never guessed that it would be the Invisible Woman out of all female marvel superheros.

Gameplay certainly isn't going to make them money.
Tried playing it with friends, got bored after an hour.
I'm really not surprised that coomer bait is this game's biggest draw.
It won't be long before there's a Marvel gacha game to kick the money printer into overdrive.
 
The second game to have ever given me an annoyance in graphics optimization, right next to Ready or Not. Even with disabling Lumen, I don't get consistent FPS of 120.

Downloaded yesterday. Wanted to get into OW, but the characters looked butt ugly and the 1st person gave me motion sickness.

Is it better to use a controller and my 50' TV, or keyboard and my 25' PC Display?

depends on how twitchy the character and how strong/weak the autoaim is.
in the end you have to adapt depending on input and decide if comfy outweighs being sweaty.
 
The game is surprisingly fun with friends but having the only South American server be in fucking Brazil means playing is more annoying than it should be, because everyone who isn't one of your friends is a subhuman room temp IQ BR huehue jungle monkey who speaks gibberish that barely qualifies as a language in a team game. It's the exact same thing that happened with Dota 2 for a while and it sucks a chunk of fun out of the game.
 
Went from Bronze 2 to Gold 3 in the span of a morning playing Storm and shot-calling. I honestly think the actual shooting doesn't matter as much has having the charisma to rally your team, and the skill to shot-call and correctly play the ult rock-paper-scissors .

Hoping to go a bit further, but I'm pretty satisfied with just Gold. Part of me wants to main support more than DPS since it's easier to queue for, but I don't feel strongly about any of the supports. I always feel like I want to do more damage when I'm support, and I like hitscan more than projectiles. Any recommendations?

She is a good tank, though I prefer Captain America myself.

C&D maybe ?
 
While doing massive online research on the Invisible Women mostly.

I didn't know Magneto originally was a villain to the F4 and uber based compared to him being a global terrorist in the modern X-men era.
