Yeah Rocket can be good, he can heal without taking risks and he's okay in terms of mobility, but he's also lacking a defensive ult, which is pretty much meta at the moment, and pretty bad at doing damage compared to... pretty much every other healer.

He can shine in a 3 healer comp, but you cannot replace a Cloak & Dagger / Luna / Mantis as Racc00n in a 2 man comp (except if there is a sizable gap between you and the other team). But he's very fun to play, and you can probably push him to Diamond, it's just going to be way harder after that
his ult generation is bonkers right now.

I head this little nikka use his ult in the first 60 seconds of a match I was like WTF

Rocket has 1 of the highest win rates in Diamond rn.

His survivability is unmatched compared to other healers which allows for more consistent healing and his revival beacon turns the tide of fights by instantly bringing back allies.

He has low damage because after 10m, he has a large damage falloff, but up-close, he shreds things apart, especially tanks.

His ult is great when paired with other offensive ults from other teammates.

And the infinite ammo he gives Punisher and Bucky is insane.

I play Spidey, feeling like a burden every game but I get MVP from time to time too. 🙂↕️

Anyone drop any money on this yet?
Yeah, I figured I'd support. I've played it a crazy amount and the outfits and emotes are actually dope.

I've spent a little over 35 so far. I tell myself my max is 70-80... But if they drop the right character with the right fit I already know I'ma fold :mjlol:

This is pretty much it, yeah, with a legit defensive ult that keeps people alive like a Luna or Mantis, he'd be much better off, but he does not. Mantis keeping nikkas alive and being able to actually murk off squishies is much better.

I haven't dived into C&D toolset yet but that's coming up

Invisible Woman has the best survivability in the game now.

Revival beacon is mid, revives only one nikka and the cooldown is big. If you can revive the CORRECT nikka (usually a tank) and plan for it, it's good, but far from broken. I've played with rocket more than anybody in the game so far and he's good for putting up numbers but not wins, sorry.

Nah, been close at times but talk myself out of it. I don't play that seriously or even do much comp

I did on the first battle pass because I wanted that Hela skin. I'm gonna pass on this one though. I hate "halloween/horror" themed shyt. It just feels idk...tacky. That Adam Warlock skin is heat though.

Started rank today. Went 8 out of 10 so far exclusively Thor. The games I lost, we had a leaver, the other we had DPS rocket and Cloak. I literally did a 10 second jumping dance in front of them and they just shooting right past me.

Maybe I'm just ass, but aiming in this game with a controller is terrible. Everybody moves around too twitchy.:hhh:

Any other console brehs struggling with aiming? What settings are y'all using?
