The vanguards have made a clear as to why he would be a unique vanguard, so why do DPS mains want him to be a DPS and what would he add to the game over any other role or any other hero?
Here are the changes I want to see in season 8
. Double vanguard season
. Fix Peni cyber bond bug (it’s been there since season 0)
. Increase new Captain America shield throw speed by 30%
. Thing and rogue abilities do not stack tenacity
. Decrease the amount of points gained from winning in ranks up to gold by 30%.
. Decrease time to reach champion by 35% (there’s too many characters)
. Increase avoid slots to 10 and 5 day duration
. Repeated reports of the same player results in 24hr, 48hr & 72hr bans not 15minutes…
. Can’t play new heroes in ranked until you hit 2hrs playtime in quick play or against AI.
. Tank tax: if DPS get more points for damage dealt tanks should gain more points for
damage blocked. You shouldn’t get penalised for simply playing the role and getting
less points than everyone else who won
Did I miss anything?
peni’s bugs have actually increased since her “buff“ in 7.5 something has to be done. You can actually see the arms of EOMM holding me back.
(FIRSTLY! I don’t know how this character will play, but what I do know is how they depict their heroes in the trailers and Easter eggs is how they typically end up looking in game)
Our guesses in this sub about characters like rogue most likely being a brawl tank who can steal powers and black cat who will likely be a dive DPS with luck based powers was quite accurate to what we got seeing as we know how Netease likes to create characters now
I think after people mess around with DD in 18v18, QP for a few minutes and hit comp after 10 minutes to play him in ranked, they will get melted, chain CC’d, tenacity will somehow not take effect until you’re one shot and go back to their main.
moon Knight, Jean, punisher, or any poke hero will have a field day with this guy and with the prevalence of solo tanking getting worse and worse I don’t see how this hero won’t just be a slower less mobile Hulk
This is why us vanguard mains desperately want cyclops to be the tank btw. We already know most people will drop DD within minutes forever up on release. And I’ll be back to solo tanking as Captain America/Peni Parker/strange/tankpool for another season praying the next vanguard isn’t another melee type.
However! my personal hope for this hero is based on how he is depicted as small in his 3-D model in game but he is depicted as much larger in the 2-D Deadpool trailer and in certain comics his size has been changed multiple times through technology or otherwise which could give him access to a different kits in game like his big form would have more damage and damage reduction abilities and his small form will have higher mobility and wall hacks or something seeing as he’s known for his keen senses.
The only saving grace for me would be the addition of moon girl who would essentially armour up the dinosaur with shields guns and other abilities but there has been zero depiction of her in the entire game. Meaning if she even comes she will be an aged up separate hero. And instead, DD will be solo melee tank and be a team up anchor with Deadpool were Deadpool maybe gets damage reduction and is able to ride the dino and shoot his guns, maybe even be able to press his E which could be cool I guess. That’s probably what the Jeff emote where people ride his back was hinting towards.
“but that’s just a theory, a game theory!”
And his ultimate is him transforming into big form like white fox
Personally, I imagine close range, high mobility, brawl (reed richard esq) damage reduction, wall hack’s potentially via primal senses, basically Jeff if he was a duellist
