Stop banning characters that received nerfs. The marvel rivals community annoys me because nobody actually tests if nerfs work or not. They read the patch notes and go "she's still fine." And perma ban. I made a similar post to this but it was just tunnel visioned on Elsa.

Do you think Emma magically had one of worst win rates in game? No. I'll tell you what happened. She was good on release. If you wanna say oppressive or op sure. They nerfed her. People still perma banned. Was it enough? Well that's the funny thing. Nobody knows. Because she was still perma ban. They need nerfed her again. Was it enough? That's the thing. Nobody knows because she still wasn't allowed to be played. She was still perma ban each nerf from the get go.

There was no "let's not ban Emma to see if she's still op." Let's see if not having an Emma on your team makes a difference. There was none of that. Why do I care?

Because my favorite character and only tank I cared about (till Rogue) couldn't be played for multiple seasons because ppl didn't want to give her a chance post nerfs.

This is why her win rate became absolutely atrocious. Because nobody gives em a chance. I don't ban Gambit because his ultimate is dog water in brawl. It does not heal enough. So if you Gambit ultimate and I go "disappear!" Or "us against the world" you lose every single time. Because a little bit of healing with dmg doesn't beat alot of healing.

I don't remember the last time I found Gambit oppressive. In fact I think he's absolutely horrendous. Why because his ultimate is a guarantee team win? So is every support ult in the game if you use it when both teams are at a reasonable distance. And it's actually not true because his ultimate loses in brawl to a real support ult like CnD invis Luna. So if I'm playing support and I just save for Gambit he's pretty easy.

This brings me to Elsa. They nerfed a lot on her by now. People aren't giving her a chance to see if it's still Elsa or gg. People haven't even tested if Elsa is the result of their loses. Because even after her second nerf she still perma ban.

Don't worry Elsa mains. You'll get to play her in 3 seasons. By then she'll be Emma 2.0. Lowest win rate in game almost and they'll keep slapping buffs on her to undo the damage because the communities bans characters who received nerfs without actually seeing if it makes a difference.

How do you deal with getting dived as emma since they usually outdps you also why is it that sometimes I just can't use chokeslam after entering diamond form

Surprised this hasn't come up sooner, but in the playtests yesterday with all the streamers it was found that tenacity is super easy to proc; way easier than what the description says.

There is so much little CC in this game that it's near impossible to keep track of and it adds up super quick. Slow, knock up, charm, etc.

So Emma Ult is just a tenacity farm, and even if you do get someone charmed they will probably break out after 1 second.

"Tank buff"

Did a few rounds in comp and she still feels fine to me. Her ult doesn’t really trigger. The cc because technically the mind control is one cc the silence isn’t really a cc. It just prevents you from using your ult or abilities. And her grab technically doesn’t count either as a cc as that’s an animation as well so really Emma is still gonna be the same as she was.
