r/RivalsVanguards

Cyclops, the first mutant, THE leader of the X-Men, coolest guy alive, childhood favorite. YES I want him as a vanguard. I literally do not care for the unknown dinosaur whatsoever.

Why are we pretending to be surprised people want to play iconic fan favorites over people they don’t know? Imagine if Captain America wasn’t in the game and people are like

“Hes just a punch and kick guy with a shield! You should be excited for *insert marvel random 66778* instead because they’re more unique!”

Yeah no. I don’t want it, I want Cyclops and I want him to be a Vanguard

I'm so tired of my teams verbally abusing me just for wanting a second tank because "It's QP. It ain't serious. Wah wah wah." Something has to be done about this because it's getting worse. These fools are becoming bold with their abuse toward tanks.

The amount of times I have seen people say "It's fine that Peni ult is bad, she has good neutral!" Then I remember magneto exists, with good neutral, and one of the best counter ults in the game.

Note: I understand different heroes generate their ults at different rates depending on a whole number of variables, but you cannot tell me Peni ult is as good as some on the right.

Dunking with his ult feels so good. But I suck with his projectiles, I just can't see where they are going

How the hell does my team just ignore the hela/namor flanking I've been pinging all game and lose when I kill both support ult?? Make it make sense

Fuck tenacity, I can't juggle for shit. Just gonna enjoy worldbreaker from now

I am a "legendary Doctor Strange" main (I could never play right other tanks) but this season I can't do nothing when I play him. Everything is way easier when I play White Fox or Jeff.

Farewell, my dear tank players.

They were arguing it's perfectly fine for any role to block ults by themselves, which negates the purpose of any tank

I felt like a god and he makes solo tanking feel somewhat bearable

The mechanic itself doesn't bother me. What bothers me is that it's not applied with the same criteria for every character, and that makes it unfair.

The clearest example: **why does Rogue's full kit trigger CC immunity, but Sue Storm's doesn't?**

Because if we compare both kits honestly, Sue does *more* CC than Rogue:

- **Sue Storm:** pulls, slows, pushes, semi-immobilizes with her orb... she has an enormous variety of crowd control.

- **Rogue:** lifts, attracts and grabs. Still CC heavy, but comparable.

Yet the devs decided that Rogue needs to trigger the mechanic and Sue doesn't. By what criteria? Because from the outside there's no clear logic.

And it gets worse. Thing's abilities count as more CC accumulation than Luna Snow's freeze or White Fox's pull — yet Luna's freeze and White Fox's attraction are objectively more disruptive than anything Thing does. On top of that, Thing's entire job is to create space for his team, and his kit depends on that to generate value. So why is he being punished for doing his job? I can get frozen by Luna and pulled by White Fox without triggering the immunity. But the moment I combo my charge with my ult, it activates automatically. How does that make any sense?

If the goal of the mechanic is to reduce CC dominance in the game, it should be applied consistently regardless of which character is using it. Applying it selectively only creates a meta where certain characters are artificially placed above others.

I'm not asking them to change the mechanic. I'm just asking them to apply it fairly and proportionally to the CC each character actually generates.

If DD is the next tank, and Cyclops is a dps. Does any of that really excite you? Because it sounds like devil dinosaur will just be a bullet sponge with no ranged attacks. I do NOT want this next season

We need Captain Marvel. A mobile tank who can create a shield with her energy. Cyclops also needs to be a ranged tank, that can creat bubbles and deflect projectiles.

That's TWO anchor tanks right there!

People keep saying cyclops doesn't make sense as anything else other than dps. And I gotta ask what the hell is wrong with you people? needa take creative liberties so we don't get 50 dps 🤬
