More spider-nest tips: When getting around anywhere (such as running to the point at the beginning of a match or after respawning) place, destroy and replace your nest at fixed intervals. Peni gets a movement speed boost while she's on her webs, so you can get to the point faster by abusing this. Mix in some web zips in-between and you'll be flying. If enemies start to focus fire your nest (which everyone does these days) then sacrifice it yourself before it gets fully destroyed. The less health the nest has, the longer the cooldown before you can recall it, so sometimes it's wiser to take a pre-emptive L yourself to shave off a few seconds.
Someone tried to call me out once for doing the movement speed trick. “WTH would you put your nest back there?!” I had to explain in the middle of the game - utter silence 🤫
1 thing this video didn't mention, putting a web over your mines makes the mines INDESTRUCTIBLE! It is always worth webbing over mines when possible to secure their value.
The oldest web shot respawning means its best to start your “trail” of web shots from the nest with the furthest web possible, since if you end up missing a web shot, it wont completely break off that trail, it’ll only shorten it. You can also use your F move to replace your web shot if you need to quickly lay down a web.
Liked and shared . Isn't Rivals a breath of fresh air after a decade of destiny? . I quit destiny years ago. I couldn't deal the non stop list of chores i was doimg in the game. I switched to Fortnite for a few years and now I'm hooked on Rivals . So much happier lol.
As a peni main, I agree with most of what you said. With her ultimate, I’d say there are two ways to use it. 1 being offensive with the peni nest attached to the webbings to deal a bunch of damage in an area or the other being defensive where your nest is destroyed and you need to stall for it to comeback off cool down. I noticed the defense ult keeps me alive in the fight while still doing some damage. Also yes, peni on attack is rough so I just swap her out with Groot 👍
Thanks for the tips! Im usually terrible at playing tank, but I've really enjoyed playing Penni lately, so this really helps! Also, one random thing I discovered recently is that if you deploy her grapple web right before Jeff swallows you, it kills him right away and frees you and your team. It's a great backup plan if you can't get out of his ult soon enough.
Another pairing tip: If you are playing Domination or are on defense, having a Groot as your primary tank is far and away the best match for Peni. He can block off access points to your nest, and can tunnel enemies directly into your trap, finishing them off with his vine walls at the same time. It's a brutal combo on maps that aren't super open. Also, this was a great video!
11:17 gotta disagree with you here: Peni is great for moving objectives, you just have to draw a line in the sand IN FRONT of the moving objective, and move as needed. If you despawn your trap, the cooldown on it is zero, so you can immediately place it again and get added value for they inevitably charge your point again. The convoy maps have tons of great spots to hide it, and I’ve had great success. Yeah, she’s not the greatest tank for them, but if you play smart and always keep them guessing, it works out sometimes.
I totally agree with you. He kept saying that and I’m like nawl you tripping. I always push with Peni. Get up front set traps push then I fall back and lay more traps, juice up from my healers, then right back to the front, trap and push.
Hard agree, peni is awesome to prep a choke point ahead of the objective, and then has the option of playing Frontline with support behind her, it's usually the most fun I have. Confuses the shit out of people
Offense pushing payload works with Penny if you’re up against Punisher, Storm or Namor because you can pressure them off the rest of your team. This is especially true when you have teammates who can’t do anything against those heroes.
I programmed the back paddle on my Dualsense (usually L3 sprint in Destiny) to her web grapple. It feels so good to catch people off guard by just grappling behind them mid fight
Something to note here, when Peni is ulting, she can drop a maximum of 7 mines during her ult. After the 7 mines, all you have is your melee attack during the ult.
i find that when im defending its great but when i lose the point and have to push back on its like impossible because they have no incentive to walk into my traps and my team keeps yelling at me to hit w is there any real way to stay as peni and not have to ult in every time a point is lost
I play Rocket and Black Panther. When I'm Rocket I just shoot all the mines and nests and never really have a problem. But when I am Black Panther and nobody shoots her stuff, I literally can't play when she's in the area
If you're shooting the Peni's mines and the nest you are not shooting Peni and it's healers Tanks and DPS as much you normally do And that's a win for Peni.
Actually, i use Penni offensively as a way to defend my healers sometimes, especially when we have a Spider-man or an Iron Fist constantly focusing on the healers. Put the nest and webs down, lay down mines around the corner, and watch as the healer hungry flankers get demolished.
Yeah but everybody's too busy all the way in the back trying be snipers. SMH folks gotta understand the roles and/or how to use these characters properly

Love me some Penni. Those mines placed on walls and ceilings catch so many people off guard 😂
her web shot also acts like a sheild as it is traveling thur the air
New arrival here, excellent information and personable delivery without clickbait & screaming. Keep up the great work!
I appreciate the kind feedback, thank you

Strategist can also retreat into nest to get away from dive.
Watched your videos in the D1 days glad to see you hopping on Marvel Rivals🤟🤟

penni has been my most use character and i didnt know about the webbin with the mines. thanks so much for this video
Peni is S-Tier. I can't even begin to explain it. Once I get a hold of Peni, it's ggs. Peni is a game saver

Dps don't usually expect to have to cross the mine-line to get into their first fight

Solid video brother man. might try her out.
Nice work. Thanks TV!
Shout out to all the Peni Mains
40 hour Peni main 🦾. Would be more but wanted to play some other Vanguards too.
True Vanguard dropping more true value.
You showed me I was putting the drone in the wrong spot on two maps in the first 30!sec lol. Thanks!
Hawkeye in the back "i use aimbot now, whoo never miss"

“Penni’s just in her ‘lane’” nice.
I play Rocket and Black Panther. When I'm Rocket I just shoot all the mines and nests and never really have a problem. But when I am Black Panther and nobody shoots her stuff, I literally can't play when she's in the area

I hate you (I play Iron Fist)
He came to marvel rivals ❤❤
Love it

Yes. This game is like football: you MUST a) play your position and b) understand winning more important than ANYTHING.
I feel like the fact she has a stun on a 3 second cooldown is kinda stupid
Dope video, I hadn't messed around with Peni yet, but she looks super fun to harass, ambush
PeniIs
Huh so this is what happens when destiny is ded 😂😂😂
"Adapt or die"
Rivals is just a fun game bruh
I'm so happy seeing all the old destiny tubers finally be freed from the Bungie mines
First xD
