i'm a gm3 star lord main with 45-11 w/l, and this guy is really good at fundamentals, like positioning and timing. his aim isn't anything crazy for his rank, it's just that his positioning and timing allows him to disrupt the enemy backline, taking their attention away from healing their team. the enemies aren't forgetting that he's there, it's just that they have no choice but to either chase him down (and be forced to stop healing their team,) or, ignore him so they can heal their teammates, and he punishes that. he does this much better than me, as i mainly rely on my aim and my positioning isn't too great.
For DPS, unless you can 1-2 shots the backline like hawkeye or hela, they rely on their ult like starlord, punisher, buckey, or ironman. So they are trying to farm ult charge while not dying and distract while their team pushes forward or get picks. I'm a casual player but I do watch A LOT of pro plays and analysis.
Buckey CAN kill backline,but you have to play mid or flank well, its a more dangerous style.And now that I think of it, so can a good IM,seen only a few, they just fly out of sight behind your team and use the beam.
Punisher is so good at singling and taking people out, get flanks on or just push the line while getting healed. Youll merk their healers or DPS characters and get close and 1 tap shotgun to the head. if u get ina dangerous situation zipline out
The key word here is fundamentals. and he is rarely pushing beyond that. Sometimes that is all it takes. Don't always have to make crazy plays or risk throwing. Just pressure, poke, kill key targets when you can but dont over risk it, but #1 DONT DIE. It would be interesting to see a game where his team is struggling and see how he compensates like if he changes his gameplay to push towards taking larger risks or not. Other heroes probably have much different perspectives though. I know spiderman for example seems to be a more high risk high reward type of game. Im gonna try starloard after watching this. I've always been a strong fundamentalist player that's why ive always tanked or healed and dps has been a hobby, I think.
Its always good to remind that his backflip thing reloads his gun, you can see that when he ults he backlips a lot, not only to avoid dmg, but also for that extra split second of dmg that can easily kill an enemy, he can deal up to 260 dmg/s
Wait 260 per second? I'm never gonna normally reload in ult again! Thats more than Iron Man gamma unibeam. The game is still new so we arent aware of the numbers yet lmao
@@vitorsamuel777 in the official website they show all numbers for damage, cooldowns, things like that, it even has ino sometimes you didn't even knew about the character
The thing he does well besides aiming obviously is positioning, when this guy says the enemy forgets about them thats just dumb they dont they are high elo players, they know if they keep looking at where starlord was they will be giving their back to the entire enemy team. This starlord knows where to strike from to make it awkard to enemy backline and knows how much he can extend without dying, even if didnt kill anyone on a flank if he is alive the enemy team still has to respect and cant focus fully on healing their tanks or dpsing. Hope this helps this is useful to any flanker in the game no only starlord.
Thats true. In higher elo, allied frontline and backline always move in if the enemy gets too distracted by your flanking, its only in low elo where everyone chases after flankers and they dont get killed for turning their backs.
@vitorsamuel777 they dont get killed but if there are 2 enemies running after you your team is already playing 5v4, so even in lower ranks this is the correct strat
I think its not just that he has great positioning and aim, hes using his dodges INCREDIBLY effectively. From his perfect timings of dodging danger, to choosing well when to flip in a fight for the reload, and even at the start of the 2nd match he was jumping partially off a building to get hits more easily and then flipping back onto the building to stay high ground. The details in his gameplay are so amazing, and thats the important thing when your character is so simplistic in nature.
I think youre both stupid. The ONLY thing they have vaguely in common are the guns. Nothing else is similar so stop being stupid. If you cant tell the difference between him and tracer then you probably cant tell the difference between republicons or democrats. Its just plain dumb.
Gotta farm views somehow lol.. He himself wont ever be getting to the highest ..even mid levels of ranks so he farms views off other high ranked players ..pretty smart tbh
molanran was a part of one of the worst seasons in overwatch league history. a chinese dps player for the la valiant in 2021. individually, his mechanics were sound. he ended up being one of the better players on that team.
This is what I love about this game. Imagine Tracer where her jumps auto reload her weapon, she a jetpack to get to high ground and she has the best Ultimate in Overwatch. Sure, you don't have Recall but that kinda sucks anyway her opponents usually can figure out where she recalled to. Star Lord is Trace on steroids and he's probably just a Top 5 duelist if that in the game (it's almost unanimous that Hela, Hawkeye and Psylocke are better and many feel Winter Soldier and Moon Knight are up there too).
is there any stat of how fast the convoy moves if there's a teammate nearby? And if it increases with more teammates nearby ~ merchant if you can test it out
You really got the wrong takeaway here. He is that success because his mechanics are crazy. You can be as smart as him. Have the same gameplan and game sense. But if you dont have his reflexes and accurate tracing in this high speed movement of yourself ( during air jumps or falling down) or enemies trying to dodge or both at the same time YOU WILL NOT COME ANYWHERE CLOSE to his lvl og Star-Lord. Just forget about it.
NPC thought process: if something goes bad just change hero or/and ask teammates to do so, definetely not worth it to try to learn new ways to play chosen hero and overcome hard conditions to improve as a player, not an hero-swapper
@@odonah no but if you watch the whole video its this mechanic, farm ult and kill everyone simples as that nothing new , the reason it works is good aim and positioning
every star lord in my team dies trying to pick 1v1 fights or trying to kill backline. This consistent way of shooting tanks almost every time and farm ults its a mechanich and a playstyle itself
@@Rodinho37 yep. not everyone can execute backline 1 by 1, and Starlord is not even the best pick for that, so this "new" playstyle is a great thing to each people
You ask why they don't counterpick and use Hawkeye as if everyone that plays the game is a grand wizard at Hawkeye. It could be as simple as people aren't that good with him xD. Do you think this Star Lord player plays this well with every hero? Like is he gonna get 47 and 3 with The Captain?
wait a second, the opposing team has 0-3 eliminations, the starlord's team has more than 20 and..... Maybe I'm stupid, but I've been in a team that just destroys opponents and in a team that can't do a single elimination during the whole game, im only one who think that it's not always about skill? That is, yes, the skill can explain the difference in 10 kills, but not in 30-40-50, while one side has literally 0 of them, I think something is wrong with the servers of the game.
If you go on leaderboards you'll see the top players and you can check their career profile and see their statistics and history the same way you can check yours. I believe you can check the replays of other players' games by checking their history tab
@Alex_Aramayo If you think tracer's ult is better than this guy's, you're delusional. This guy's way more accessible, and way more Mobile. Dude can literally fucking fly...
@@juakored You said Starlord is a million times better than Tracer, not that his ult is. 1 for 1, Tracer has higher carry potential and skill expression in OW2 than Starlord does in Marvel Rivals.
Put Starlord in OW and he's the best character in the game. But in Rivals he's "fine." What Tracer has that he doesn't is Recall, and also her very slim hitbox + crouching, which makes her extremely hard to hit. Don't get me wrong, he's strong, but Rivals's backlines are hellish to break through. Mantis and Luna are frankensteinian abominations with incredibly stacked kits, and Hela and Hawkeye are simply excessively overtuned when it comes to numbers, but also have strong kits with no real holes in them. Then there's Adam who can res himself, the team, and Mantis/SL for free, has Zen's damage AND can full heal himself three times in a row, etc, etc. OW's supports don't hold a candle to MR's, that's why Starlord is a bit "mid" in his own game.
10:00 How the hell he missed that much and won the 1v1 (i mean this crosshair totally not track on enemy), not only this one. like there are so many parts questionable. If it is just delay then it is fine, otherwise, I don't think that a cheater game pov is not quite "good" material to watch or learn from that.
My guys... THOSE ARE NOT 56 KILLS Am I the only one who has noticed a certain detail related to statistics? I am not going to say it yet, so that the community continues to enjoy its "high statistics" numbers 😅😊 ... But I'm sad that I realized this too :c
no you’re not, most ppl especially those who play ranked know how KO’s work. the player who does majority dmg on the enemy gets kill credit and so does the teammate who deals the final hit, it works the same way in overwatch and many other games. i would argue that assists are the more confusing stat since they don’t rely much on dmg. it seems they are mostly earned by strategists with CC or dmg boosting abilities, tanks like magneto who can bubble teammates or dr strange who has a CC for an ult, or by active team up abilities.
@@BlayF13 Yes, I noticed that :c... It seemed strange to me that my team had a lot of kills, but I had the idea of adding up the deaths of the opposing team and the result was not the number of "our kills" But I added "final hit" and the deaths of the enemies and yes it's correct :c So really, that Ironman game 45-7...

SL is very fun to play,but in a game where enemy has two healers, you usually dont kill much,till the ulti charges up I guess.
