Dude, thank you so much for front loading your video with all of the tips and important info. I hate this algorithm pushing people to stretch videos into 10 minutes of just rambling, but you put all the info at the front and then put gameplay footage after. You’re the best, dude
"She's best to play with a support with high healing like Luna." Bold of you to assume I'm not the only support on the team. (Role queue soon pls) For real tho, amazing guide!! I was sleeping on her personal damage boost giving her a heal.
@mattevans4377 imo LFG was the worst and most toxic feature of OW. I would rather stay open queue. The amount of elitists that wouldn't let you into a group because they expected you to have a 90% win rate and play only the heroes they want was wild. I will say, I left my original comment 6 days ago and after climbing from Bronze 3 to Gold 2, team compositions haven't been as bad as I thought they would. 1/3/2 has worked out really well. (Vanguard/Duelist/Strategist)
@@TofuWaifuI played 3 games in a row last night where I was the only healer on a team of 4 duelists and we got absolutely obliterated. There was one game where we had 0% progression on the point.They were all running around by themselves. I was having a hard time trying to keep them healed so I decided to choose 1 person every minute and just keep them healed and buffed. It felt like an impossible task.
Wow, the aggression! I've been playing a bit too passively with her apparently. I've still be ranking up because I seem to have pretty good map awareness/situational awareness but I have observed that my damage is low compared to pros. I also have 14 matches on her and had NO Idea my F is a healing over time for myself lmaooo. Ty brother.
In "high elo" Mantis healing is not going to save anyone. The burst healing is too low and the slow healing is only good out of combat, against people not knowing how to aim I guess it can feel like its useful, but when a pro rushes you in, you're not surviving without Luna or Jeff burst heal lmao.
You’re likely stuck with new players still, I started off against people who couldn’t kill anyone, but later on your healing becomes less reliable. Mantis is excellent at maximizing uptime on her abilities, granting regen and dmg boosts on as many of her teammates as possible.
Mantis became my main when i was having a hard time with Rocket in the beginning of a match. I almost quit the match, but decided against it. It was my first time playing as her, and i went on an absolute tear and helped my team win!
4:50 Mantis is also capable of being a main healer, and solo healing. In my opinion, she's currently the strongest Strategist in the game. Don't let this discourage you at all.
It’s a very fast projectile (150 meters per second travel time). Her projectiles also have no fall-off so cross map headshots do a good chunk of damage in addition to refreshing your cooldowns.
I’m half stupid at games like this but for me look sensitivity 6 has worked well for me on controller. I personally main mantis and idk if I’m a good healer or not but typically have the most healing done with 6
The output is: You lost your team the first fight, my man; it was incredibly sloppy. Watch it back. You could have easily kept your IF alive and probably your Groot if you were paying more attention.
i wonder what rank is this. these people suck. any decent spidey would 1v1 a flanking mantis. this guy is boosted by his streamer friends but thankfully can aim cuz he is probably adderall monkey. also his life orb management is bad
Is it bad that I’m barely damaging enemies when I play her ? I’ll still attack to get my life orbs back but other than that I’m 75% of the time healing
What's crazy is when I sleep an iron fist that's diving the backline and the team mate immediately damages them, pulls them out of sleep, and then gets killed anyways.😅
I looooove playing Mantis but it's so tough playing her when the other healer isn't doing well. Mantis gets so much power out of just momentum and can really run over teams but the heal is just too slow to keep your team alive a lot of the time. I wanna play her but I usually switch to Luna because Luna can solo heal.
I guess this isn't a hero for low rank or quick play. I can't keep even my tank up, they die immediately unless I spam all my healing orbs. I'm constantly at zero and can't even breathe for some dmg that people around me die. Unlike Cloak and Dagger where I can keep everyone up and do dmg.
I'm sorry sir but healing is a side job? Often when I play mantis I have to double my team's healing rate just for them to survive but yes I do agree, damage boost herself is essential for her to survive constantly.
@@FerealFr no you. like, really that's a fps game, not a rpg. You can overheal but you can't overdamage, and you don't win fight by not dying but by killing ennemy team. That's the thing new player, or average player don't understand with the role of a support on a pvp fps, you're not here to sit healboting and hopping ppl will win the game for you, and then complain when they can't bc you're halving your slot value. Not to mention mantis is awesome on tank pressure, awesome on long range fight/poke, and awesome as a duelist. You need to put value on the table to win, and once again healboting isn't that much of a value.
yes his crosshair was off target at the point of contact but that is likely because he clicked the shot at the right moment during the arc of his mouse movement. i see it all of the time from widowmakers. i used to watch kayjii several years ago when he cammed his hands and i think(?) i remember he him doing longer arm movements rather that small wrist movements, which i hear is better not to wreck your hand/wrist
The lobby I played in was well below my skill level, so I was able to dominate. Since this is early gameplay footage, I recommend checking out some of the new videos featuring players closer to my skill level 😆
ngl I feel lke in theory she's very similar to Brigitte theoretically. Getting headshots to keep dmg boost up time and healing up time is very similar to trying to keep inspire up time with Brigitte
Not even remotely close to Brig. Definitely Zen. But instead of discording a single enemy, you fling out damage boosts galore alongside a “repair pack” I guess.
@@viewtifullyvon6465 I dont think he meant similar in the sense of gameplay but they are similar theoretically, they both have to deal damage and hit their skill shots to have optimal uptime.
Yesterday, I tested all the healers to see who I liked and stuff. Mantis... Meh, but later, after noticing my terrible aiming when shooting my teamates to heal (i forgor the name of the hero but is the ice lady lol), I decided to play Mantis and focus on healing... Oh my God, you would not believe how much I carried all the games, even those that I lost. But 2 games, I healed and focus a Thor and a Groot (ofc, I healed the others but they were the agressive ones killing and tanking damage). The Groot game, I was way more agressive and killed 18 players and 4 deaths and kept a Groot alive enough to stay in last point while fighthing another Groot who was not healed and my teamates showed up. Used my Ultimate and saved everyone, the game and became the MVP. I just love Mantis, now and you can play agressively and passively with her. Played both and did well. (The passive playstyle I'm talking about: Stay in the middle of your team, charging with them, healing the DPS and buffing them, putting Thors and enemy tanks to sleep, shoot everyone while looking at your friends and healing. So... Passive Agressive Mantis is the way.)
There were already two betas, during which I finished around the Top 10 in both. Our team, which included Necros, ML7, Bogur, LHCloudy, and Kragiee, finished in second place in the last Marvel Rivals tournament.
Allied inspiration. I'm assuming it was skipped over because it's just Natural Anger but for allies with no difference in for the damage buff or duration
Solid Mantis tips, but man, your gameplay from 5:40 to 6:11 was brutal to watch. You let your whole team fall over and weren't even buffing yourself. You literally lost your team that first fight.
Idk the headshots are great and all but sooo many of the teammates deaths were preventable, I hope mantis players don't undervalue her heals after watching this
solo-ulting to save yourself from Fist in game 1 was kinda poor decision making. The team could have benefitted from that one. I heard you say ult management is so important but then you just used it on yourself lmao.
I mean great game and everything but if you’re gonna play mantis the way you did you should just switch off mantis and go play dps. Your healing was so bad in both games. You sometimes damage boosted some teammates but you mainly just used it on yourself and rushed ahead playing super selfishly. Just use those skills and gameplay you were using on any other dps and you’d get the same results and thus someone else can play support and get better healing than you did these games.
You have to play aggressively and take flanks and off-angles constantly if you want to carry yourself against less experienced players. The gameplay footage in the video is from early access, so these poor souls had to witness my Mantis and stay in spawn. If you want to see gameplay where I can't flank as much because players have better awareness, check out my most recent videos.
I agree, only watching game 1 so far and it’s aggressive dmg which is great but you can see so many times he could stop attacking for a millisecond right click and save a teammate than go back to damage. He just keeps attacking and lets them die. Amazing aim but he should stick to damage characters.
I mean, you’re somewhat right but I guess it’s a good thing Mantis isn’t just a healer. I’d argue it’s worse when players think a team is going to be as optimally effective with one strategist to begin with. There’s a reason the every beta team comp meta was 2 duelists, 2 vanguard, 2 strategists, and while i know most players didn’t play beta, it feels common sense that an even distribution of cohesive roles is a intelligent way to plan. Mantis is built for a hybrid style (which is why she can put out that type of damage anyway), just know that if you’re in a team with one support and that support is Mantis, you’re really not going to receive optimal healing uptime because she only has four charges to split amongst 3 different functions lol. If your team gets pressured, it’s often gonna be a toss up. Especially if DPS is splitting (which is annoyingly common). He really said it best, she is a supportive DPS. Damaging is literally how she gain charges quicker for buffing and healing. Especially at higher competitive levels. He is entirely right when he says healing is her side job. Hence why many change to Luna if the team is in dire need of heals. Aggressive support has been her meta niche since the first beta lol.
Bro why are healers treated so bad in every game, like i go out of my way to make sure that i can keep the team alive because nobody else wants to, and then when i heal and keep everyone alive they have the audacity to blame their trash gameplay on me

That's just every game, ever. Don't think I've ever played a game, even MMORPG's, where dps role wasn't by far the most played.
Also there are more DPS characters so statistically more people pick those although a team should be more balanced with tanks and healers too

Do her healing spores stack? Or have a bigger initial heal?
bigger initial heal, the healing over time doesn't stack.
4:50 Mantis is also capable of being a main healer, and solo healing. In my opinion, she's currently the strongest Strategist in the game. Don't let this discourage you at all.
Her healing in not that great unless you’re constantly getting head shots off
So I haven't been able to figure it or seen it mentioned anywhere.
Is Mantis' weapon hitscan or projectile based?
It’s a very fast projectile (150 meters per second travel time). Her projectiles also have no fall-off so cross map headshots do a good chunk of damage in addition to refreshing your cooldowns.
if you solo support, do you recomend staying with this aggresive playstyle or switching to a more healing focused one? (or maybe swapping to luna?)
If you’re the only supp I’m pretty sure you just have to switch to Luna unless you’re playing with demons that will abuse the dmg buff Mantis gives
Are there any Mantis specific settings you have changed?
no, everything on default.
Great guide, thank you! Is jumping meta in Rivals?
what in game sens and graphics settings do you use?
Do you have higher horizontal mouse sensitivity than vertical or are you just crazy at keeping it at the right height

Coming from counterstrike, you should always choose a lower setting for micro adjustments
you had like 1,000 healing done almost 3 minutes into the game. and you were the only support.
we won
“Support” not “healer” doing a shit ton of damage and dmg boosting is still effective

What is your sense and dpi 😢 your aim is cracked!
Does the HoT stack if you apply it multiple times to a target?
no you just refresh the duration and heal for 55 when you cast the heal
ok so recasting the healing flower ability doesnt do more healing vs just keeping the HoT on an ally?
It does quick burst of healing, somewhere around 100, then heals over the next 5 seconds

There’s a reason the every beta team comp meta was 2 duelists, 2 vanguard, 2 strategists, and while i know most players didn’t play beta, it feels common sense that an even distribution of cohesive roles is a intelligent way to plan.
Mantis is built for a hybrid style (which is why she can put out that type of damage anyway), just know that if you’re in a team with one support and that support is Mantis, you’re really not going to receive optimal healing uptime because she only has four charges to split amongst 3 different functions lol. If your team gets pressured, it’s often gonna be a toss up. Especially if DPS is splitting (which is annoyingly common).
He really said it best, she is a supportive DPS. Damaging is literally how she gain charges quicker for buffing and healing.
Especially at higher competitive levels. He is entirely right when he says healing is her side job. Hence why many change to Luna if the team is in dire need of heals. Aggressive support has been her meta niche since the first beta lol.
And this is why Mantis can never truly be S tier. Players have no clue how to play with one
This hero is not ok
Icant aim 😭
👹
support? looks like a dps
Mantis is a duelist in the strategist category 😅
@ yea ur putting in work with her
Might as well just play any dps. You're not even healing
🤓
Bro why are healers treated so bad in every game, like i go out of my way to make sure that i can keep the team alive because nobody else wants to, and then when i heal and keep everyone alive they have the audacity to blame their trash gameplay on me
The game just came out, what is he talking about. How the game have pro players already.
NOT PRO
not helpful for beginners, it was kinda all over the place.
You should healing your team
ratio
Literally explained in the video... Her primary focus is damage boosting and pushing aggression
Shes primarily a damage boosting hero, she's best played with another strategist that has way more heals
does not seem like and easy charcter, one star? lol
Yeah, doesn’t make sense 😅
