What makes this game so good is that every character has outright solo carry potential - I haven’t really seen any “DAY 1 META TIER LIST OMG” vids flooding my feed because every character is super strong.
I feel like luna snow and Wolverine were tuned a little much or more specifically Wolverine, it’s so much fun 1v1ing them as Cap. But like DAMN bro Wolverine is nuts😭
Yes it's fun but man the aim is so hard to get used to coming straight from ow, cloak and dagger I think is my all time favorite so far how I can heal and dps at the same time
I think I might be a Moon Knight Main. Not only do I like the character, but melting crowds with the infinite hit markers and fucking people up around corners by using the ankhs is way too satisfying. They just need to add a subtle change to the reticle when you are looking at a surface you can grapple.
The game feels great to play! It reminds me of old Overwatch times when heroes used to feel unique, distinct, and kits felt powerful. I hope they keep their philosophy of every crew in Marvel Rivals feeling strong. Hope this game will thrive in the long runs so that competitions exist for Overwatch. Competition is good to have! I definitely see myself cycling between those two games.
Rivals as done something I thought would be impossible: Make every character fun to play while also viable, regardless of role. Tank and healer being just as fun as dps is a very welcome change.
"Tank and healer being just as fun as dps is a very welcome change." Then why is it so hard to get any support players in qp ? Every characters are viable but they're not all equally strong, as people get better some characters will begin to dominate more than other There is no way to balance an hero shooter before release
@@ni9274 Because people still have anxiety of playing tanks and healers from OW. There's no way to fix people's mindset of just wanting to have no other responsibility other than dealing damage. They're horrified at the idea of pressing one or two extra buttons to help their team rather than kill the enemy cause they don't want to get blamed for failing, even though characters like Jeff, Luna, Cloak, and Rocket can still easily deal damage while healing the team. Jeff is my main cause shark puppy and I've constantly been getting mvp with some of the highest elims and team assists in the match. Supports are just as capable of filling the enemy with bullets as they are with filling their team with life. All it takes is for people to shake that stigma they've built up from OW.
@@ni9274eh idk man, I’d say most of my games have either one or two supports and as for tanks I usually have one, and if I don’t I play it cuz I like tank too, guess it just depends tho
@@ni9274 I was a support main for the entire of my 4 years on overwatch and I have to say, the support heroes in this game feel so much better, obviously the balance isn’t all there but the play styles are all so varied and have so much carry potential. Cloak and dagger alone is more interesting than pretty much anything overwatch has put out for supports in years
Loving playin Loki and Thor (Asgard representin!) I hate how Widows rifle sounds like someone snapping their fingers after every shot. Could really use a cool bolt action sound effect instead.
Personally I don’t find Black Widow’s sound effect annoying in the slightest, just some kind of a generic sound effect, but it definitely feels a quite unfitting for her gun.
Played it as soon as I could last night and played till about midnight. I'm leaning towards Strategist/Duelist but mainly Strategist, and I am absolutely loving Cloak and Dagger. Personally I'm very fond of the character already from the comics but man playing them is so much fun
Played 1st game earlier, and biggest learning curve for me is time to kill lol. Im so used to dieing instantly if i get out of position that i didnt play aggressive enough. Trade off tho is that hitboxes are a lot less forgiving than overwatch. Flats missing shots at 2:10 wasn't a joke lol if you're off by a pixel shot will miss.
As someone who has put thousands of hours into OW since season 3, I was highly skeptical about Rivals. Boy was I wrong. It’s awesome. It has its similarities to OW but it’s original enough and above all; it’s more fun to play. Try it out!
I need Quicksilver to be added as a strategist. That way you have all three members of the family, each in a different role. Obviously he'd be based around quickly moving people around the map like he does in the X-men movies.
The game is very very fun. I pulled an all nighter playing it and I haven’t done of those for a video game in quite some time. My only issue with marvel rivals is that currently, it has quite a few of the same balance issues that overwatch has. But those can be easily fixed. Also 6v6 feels way better, I love the extra chaos of two more players.
personal opinion here. This game and its hero abilties seem much more complicated then overwatch, wouldve been nice if we started with a much smaller hero pool and they rolled out a new hero every week or something
Agreed they don't seem to care about going too complicated on some kits and honestly it works really well plus some seem deceptively simple but have a lot more depth than you'd think which honestly is a very fun surprise when I try out new characters
As a long time OW-player, this game is so much fun but it´s gonna take a loooong time to learn all the abilities, team-ups. combos, sound cues, ults etc.🤣
Honestly not as long as I thought you spend a few minutes in testing range and even the main menu and it tells you everything it informs you surprisingly well
I named myself "Dorian Gay" and honestly I was kinda surprised that it even let me because so many things censor words like gay! Also my bestie and I were playing from 1AM to 10AM because it was so fun!! (and we spent sooo long in the practice range figuring out what the hell we were doing lol)
The thought of playing overwatch when this game exists is non- existent for me rn😂😂 idk if thats gonna change in the future but as of right now, Marvel Rivals is THE game
Did you notice how they got rid of the grapple they showed in Black Widow's trailer!? I swear she had one, now it's gone. Also she is very hard to play, as a Widowmaker main, I don't think I hit but a few shots with her 😭 How her scope works seems a little off to me? Could just be me.
No cross progression is wild. I know they said they’re going to add it at some point. But with a game that has battle passes and cosmetics it’s kind of crazy. My friend base is split between pc and console. Will defo not be buying any battle passes etc. until it’s added!
@ no, cross progression. So right now if I say get the battle pass on pc and got a whole bunch but wanted to play on Xbox, I’d be on a completely different account. Overwatch does it so one account for all, but different pools and ranks for competitive
They're not that bad you just gotta spend a minute fine tuning it to you I spent like 15 minutes in the training range just adjusting settings and once you get it right it genuinely is pretty good
I played for probably 4 hours last night. Storm makes sense to me. Venom and Magneto are fun. I want to be good with Spider-Man but he is tricky. I'll keep working at it. Sorry to those I meet on the way while figuring him out T_T (my first team wasn't very nice to me)
tip for venom and spidey, turn off the easy/automatic swing for them if you haven't already. you'll have to aim where you swing but you'll be so much more mobile especially on spidey
@@Deadpool781000 Thank you so much! I'm getting better at Spidey but always felt his web swinging felt awkward. Like it didn't always go where I wanted it. I'll make that change.
A lot of the ranged heros are really good but that's mainly cuz some defensive abilities are just insane like iron fist literally getting I frames and a heal so you can tank any amount of damage thrown at you then you can just slaughter the guy who just tried to fight back
I'm glad that whoever got the Flats name is probably a huge Flats fan (it was me. I took it.)
BRO I FOLOW YOU ON TWITTER
cap bro i took it
How lame
you stole another mans name? susybaca
Love your vids!
ofc flats taken lmao
people took tenz before he could get it too lol
I call him FATS
Rivals is SO fun! Squirrel Girl feels great, and has some disgusting kill lines. "Aww, Sniper no more sniping!"
Ain't no way she makes a dora reference 😭

Wait for a week when Ranked will unlock and people start minmaxing.
Launch OW was like that too. But then we got better at the game
Bruh !!! Scarlet witch is amazing !!!!
You haven't seen a meta tier list because nobody knows what they're doing and the game is a day old
@@Thatpastaiscoldthe games really balanced in the aspect everything is broken but wolverine and cap are the best tanks by far
I wonder if he knows he can hipfire Black Widow's sniper
He did so in the video
And paired with Hawkeye she can also shoot the afterimages, easy kills with his ult lol
Yep after playing the game yesterday all afternoon it's official. I'm dropping Overwatch. Marvel Rivals is so much more fun right now
That quick to jump ship eh? I wouldn't speak so soon. Let's see how it feels once it ages a bit.
I’m scared it’ll be awesome for the first couple of seasons and then it get canceled or some bs. Todays gaming got me having commitment issues
Marvel rivals already better than overwatch even if u let it age or whatever lol@@AKA_Keegs
I decided to leave Overwatch months ago. My friends and I have all deleted OW the night Marvel released
Overwatch still a good game i will play both@@AceKite00
The best part of this game is no Orisa No mauga
Yet, there are a LOT of marvel characters and I can see agent venom working the same as mauga
@marsupialmaniac8083 don't Jinx it 👁️👁️
@@marsupialmaniac8083At least he’s not as immortal as Mauga. And there’s no need for grandma to counter venom 😂
It won't be long before people find the OP characters and start complaining
@marsupialmaniac8083 I'd say venom is more like wrecking ball, basically has grapple and adaptive shields
Is this the Reinhardt rework?
Which one strange or cap 😂
Ah yes, everyone's favourite streamer, Flat Sow.
Finally, a rival video.
I played already bout 6 - 7 hours ish.
Having a bit of fun with winter soldier. Specially interupting ults.

I played a few games last night and it's so much fun. Really liking Punisher and Rocket. Trying to get the hang of Groot with all his wall building

So happy I was able to grab Lord fulgrim as the name
The Spider-Man pointing meme is great honestly
I f@#$ing love when flats plays iron fist. Boomboomboom boom boom boom boom boomboomboom 😂
This game made me realize I need a more powerful desktop 💀
I definitely need more ram for this game. Lol my laptop had a good 4 year run.
Bro's over here acting like Jotaro Kujo with how fast he's throwing those hands! Ora!
I am so happy to see these Rivals videos crushing. Please free our boy from the Blizzard mines
Is that the reload sound for widow's sniper? It sounds bad to me

I just play my first game ever, 19-4 with Cap :)
Congrats! Is he your favorite tank so far?
@@m0ejo324mine is Strange or Venom so fucking goof
Caps insanely fun, the fact that his shield can block some ults is crazy

My first game was a win and MVP. 31-1 with Psylocke
i love how Cap. america run like a action figur XD
gotta use the cap ultimate in team fights. you buff your team.
“you ate me” “ ok c: “
12:25 you should've gone for the health pack first, and then cap ulted!(It was right in front of you ;-;)
I was thinking the same thing
this game is actually so incredibly fun it’s insane
Whats the purpose of turning running off for cap? I always have it on
they absolutely cooked with the skins and mvp animations

I dont think the game has aim assist does not feel like it atleast
I've been having a blast I just had to up the sensitivity and it feels fine
is that girl you are playing wtih the one that sings "you should've picked meeercyyyyy"?
Venom is lowkey fun to play as next up HELA
Hawkeye, Widow & Punisher are so much fun to play lol
Punisher has my favorite ult voiceline and he just looks so damn cool walking around with the two chain guns and the rocket pod on his shoulder
i’ve been playing moon knight nonstop, he’s so good once the enemies clump up
Why does black windows gun sound like it’s popping out PEZ 😭
Not the PEZ 😂
I’m just as excited as this dude
Cant wait to play it. Jeffs just a little guy and its great. He reminds me of my muktiverses main rien dog

Shouldda had flats voice act iron fist so he says boom boom boom in game
What is the wobbling sound
Like a door stopper
Jeff feels very strong
I’ve been playing for 6 hours straight so far streaming and only been playing Adam warlock. He just feels amazing if you can hit your shots
All imma say is Moon Knight and Jeff are my mains for now cause they are so damn fun!
can't wait for all the complaints to flood in after a week or two

About the name being taken, It’s ok… I got on within like 5 minutes of the play button turning green and the name “Fluffy” was already taken
I'm usually lucky in that regard since I use a very specific name and numbers so it's literally never taken

I started like an hour ago and love playing iron fist sm
Magnetos pretty fun ngl
sist3rfist3r with the huge push!
Cant wait for poeple to invent rollouts with D̶o̶o̶m̶, i mean iron fist
I wouldn't even say he's similar bros actual melee and his mobility is closer to that of Genji with the multiple jumps and interacting with walls
Does it play like fortnight with ults?
The only character I absolutely hate rn is Iron Fist. Mf is a mosquito that can heal itself and obliterates you in 2 seconds.
was loving rivals last night but man i need to upgrade my pc. still running a 1660ti and machine could hardly keep up at 1080p :(

At least this game is better than both of them.

Game looks fun fr, but man I hate 3rd person shooters 😒 wish there was a forst person mode or something, guess ill just have to get over it lol
I just hate that fidget spinner clicky sound every time black widow reloads, what an unsatisfactory sound, just terrible.
