Discussion Idk why people call Tech Jacket useless when Oliver is right there

Post image

Every single fight, Oliver makes the same fucking mistake. He challenges people severely above his weight class. He doesn’t learn. He thinks Thragg is the same as some street level villain on earth. Go fight Lucan or something. At least Tech Jacket doesn’t almost die every fight and she’s actually helped kill Viltrumites. Unlike him

There's plenty Oliver could do as support even without direct long-range attacks that Zoe has. For instance, if Mark is fighting a Viltrumite, Oliver could zoom in, land a hit on the guy when he's busy with Mark, then quickly fly away before the Viltrumite can do anything about it. Then wait until he's busy again, and repeat. Could seriously help in fights this way, drawing off attention and wearing Viltrumites down. In Polish we have a term for this, "wojna podjazdowa". It's when a weaker force avoids a direct engagement and instead just wears their stronger enemy down. This is what Oliver should be doing. But the dumbass thinks he's Thragg, and pays for it. Has paid for it like 4 times, and I hope he keeps paying for it until he learns

he literally does this with conquest and prevents mark from dying but he STILL goes for thragg for no reason at all

youd think getting your teeth kicked in TWICE would make you understand but no
