@mossyquartzYT Also to put it into perspective, how bad its downtime is:
It takes 48 frames (4/5 of a second) to charge the first ring of a Heavy Splatling. It takes 120 frames (2 seconds) to charge the first ring of a Hydra Splatling, which is 2.5x as long.
@mossyquartzYT It also doesn't have as much pressure as a Tri-Stringer or a Charger; it kinda doesn't have much going for it in zones; its much better in tc, where it can take advantage of the highground, that the tower provides.
@FlankForFun what game are you talking about? The only team 100T played against, that didn't ban Gambit was NRG Shock and 100T won 2-1 against them
I'm also not talking about preseason bc in preseason, Elsa was more broken than Gambit, so she got banned instead; doesn't make Gambit not broken
@KingCake188670@CL0V0R Black Cat is very strong aswell, but Phoenix being able to twotap is ridiciolus.
I think, Phoenix is definetly stronger; she also gets banned/protected more in proplay
@realHydroOW because Overwatch doesn't have the skill celling for you to beat your counters consistently and the hero you play matters much more than your skill, so if you play your onetrick into a bad matchup, you're forcing your team to play around you while also being at a disadvantage
@weeklyprices@CL0V0R if there are 3 marks on an enemy, it explodes for 35 damage in a small AOE and marks nearby enemies (used to be 40 damage but it got nerfed in favour of increasing her primary fire damage)
@YumeCocane@k1dd2keen@CL0V0R it wasn't broken because Phoenix could walk up on people; it was broken, because Phoenix, a midrange hitscan did way more damage up close than the close range heroes, that have to walk up on her to do anything
melee should have the advantage against long-range up close period.
@CL0V0R BP is a melee character; Phoenix is a midrange hitscan DPS
BP is horrible; Phoenix is consostently top tier
Those things make a huge difference in judging, whether melee marks are a good idea or not
so yes it makes way more sense for BP to get melee marks than Phoenix
@Rixter91@kamoola_ because he's still broken. In literally every Ignite match of this season, both teams first banned Gambit; it probably means something if the character has a 100% banrate in proplay
10 killstreak in anarchy series
apologies if the clip is a bit scuffed (basically this is 4 parts of the clip stitched together bc I pressed save the last 30 seconds 4 times during this)
Yayy I love having to uninstall a game to play another game without constant freeze frames and framedrops its soo fun
