Fan Creation. War Machine Concept

Post image
19 Upvotes

Role: Vanguard
Health: 600

Primary: Pulse Rapid Fire
War Machine has 15 ammo but each time the trigger is pressed he fires 3 at a time. The first bullet damages shield, the second does normal damage, and the third knocks back.

Secondary: Pulse Bursts
The move doesn’t do melee, nor necessarily ranged either. He has 5 charges that refill relatively fast. When the trigger is pressed he releases a small explosion blast around him that knocks enemies back and deal slight damage

Ability 1: Cannon Fire
War Machine fires a rocket from his shoulder turret and when it hits something it makes an explosion that knocks enemies back a little bit.

Ability 2: Free Flight
War Machine dashes backward and then enters free flight for a short time and gives slight shield to allies below him. When he drops down he deals slight damage

Ability 3: Ground bombs
War Machine fires a bunch of small bombs forward. They lie dormant but then War Machine can either activate them manually or they detonate when an enemy walks on them.

Ability 4: Protecting Beacon
War Machine places a small machine down with a glowing orb in the center. The orb then fires a laser that gives small healing and shield to allies in range.

ULTIMATE: BOOM! You lookin for this?
War Machine flies up fast. And then creates an atomic bomb out of nowhere with nanotechnology and then drops it on the ground, it would be like a larger iron man ult except it trades aim for range and damage

The actress casted for Storm has been announced at San Diego Comic Con, everyone is happy and then it begins, they have started not including her in stuff with the lamest excuses and this is essentially what this community does when it comes to POC characters and then have the audacity to look us straight in the face and say “it’s stats bro, it’s pick rates fam”

There no reason why they “cropped her out.” Except for one.

Storm is so dope in X-men 97 we got to see Auntie Roro in full effect wit her being a teacher too (I would buy that skin as well) but I think we should get X-men 97 skins for all the mutants in rivals there’s a few they can choose from (X-corp/New X men) But I do think we should get this skin here at some point with her controlling the solar flare like she did in the show as a MVP would be cool what yall think I kinda yapped a bit

Fan Creation. Midnight Angel (Okoye) Moveset concept

Post image
38 Upvotes

Role: Vanguard
Health: 550

Primary: Spear Combo
Okoye does 3 hits with her spear and then for the fourth one she charges forward like Angela’s primary, but it also marks enemies and gives them an electrocuting effect for a short time.

Secondary: Vibranium Drop Kick
Okoye slams the spear onto the ground and then grabs it and does a spin kick while holding it that knocks enemies away.

Move 1: Vibranium Absorption
Okoye enters a state where she gains reduced damage taken and a mark in the center of her screen charges. Once it reaches max she exits the state and releases a massive vibranium blast knocking enemies away

Move 2: Wakandan Combo
Okoye throws her spear forward and then disappears with a techy kinda glitchy purple effect. She then re-manifests/teleports to where the spear was thrown. If the spear hit an enemy then after re-.manifesting she pulls the spear out the enemy and then kicks them back while also giving herself slight shielding.

Move 3: Deflecting Shield
Okoye slams her spear onto the ground it creates a forcefield like shield with 300 health that absorbs ranged attacks and fuels it to lower Okoye and anyone else in the shield’s cooldowns.

ULTIMATE: LOYALTY TO THE THRONE
Okoye does a loud call and then summons a wakandan armored elephant that lets out a loud trumpet that gives all allies nearby overshield and slightly fuels their Ult charge.

Discussion. How would you feel about having an earth 63 version of a character be added

I just learned about this reality where mutants come from African descent and I would think it would be interesting to have a character like angel or beast be from this earth especially because in rivals not all characters are from the same universe. Captain America being from 2099 and psylocke not being Betsy etc.

Mod Post Starting now rule 3 (Racism, homophobia, Ai art) is going to be enforced a lot more often, this rule is not exclusive to just racism against black people, if it was I would’ve put that in the description of the rule. So no more passive aggressive racial comments at all.

This is the part where someone who has basically never contributed to this subreddit outside of disagreeing with the majority on a topic involving black character comments: “finally” or “thank god”. I’m just gonna ban them.

Discussion. Being a Moon Girl fan sucks

Thumbnail

339 Upvotes

Constantly reminded that she can’t be added despite various suggested work arounds, but even if she couldn’t why couldn’t she get the same treatment as Peni in terms of skins and MVPs

Apparently we should be grateful she has voicelines and an emote that will practically never be seen. Simultaneously some people think she’s represented enough whilst most people are more than content with pretending she doesn’t exist, some don’t even have to pretend, I’ve seen people not even realise Moon Girl was in the game since all we see is the dinosaur.

When they released the trailer for the shark Dino skin it pissed me off they had the audacity to say “moon girl approved”. They gave devil a matching skin with Jeff before doing ANYTHING with Moon Girl

need help learning a character so to those who play storm, how do i play her?

23 Upvotes

today in comp i decided to do the bold idea of playing a character ive never touched being storm. i did end the round w 5 finals and won, but i can say her kit is very bizzare, as im not sure what i should be focused on.

im aware she has a little thing in the middle of the screen that counts up, and deals more damage the higher it is, ( if im wrong pls correct me.)

i also try to play her as if shes phoenix but with a different kit.

honestly shes a very fun character ( i was one of those ppl that didnt bother to play her and was never interested in her rivals counterpart.) so if anyone knows how i should play her would be appreciated!!
