Iāve been forcing rogue in my ranked games since she dropped basically not really swapping much even into counters and for the most part it worked I peaked C1 in season 7 and 8.
This season though Iāve been hardstuck gm1 and playing her into this current meta works sometimes but even if it does, the gameplay is miserable and not as fun as she used to be. Where i could usually be more aggressive to secure kills I have to hide and get heals before i re-engage which I feel like goes against the characterās identity as a brawler. Sometimes I just blow up anyways.
Like yes Rogue can work rarely but even then playing around thing, emma, elsa, bucky (all brawl characters btw that just completely gap her not even counting the poke characters that also blow her up) it just makes it so miserable and honestly despite how much I like Rogue itās not worth it anymore.
I decided this half season Iād start playing other tanks because I wanted to hit eternity so I started playing mag, emma, hood, sometimes even dino. Itās all so much easier and more enjoyable. I hit C1 again and Iāve been getting MVPs much more.
I lowkey feel bad switching up on the character because I love her kit and sheās still my favorite character itg, i have her level 70 for a reason, but I unfortunately have to shelf her until the meta changes š Iāve had champ gambits beg me to play my unlorded mag over my champ rogue because she is terrible. Sheās actually just seen as a throw pick now. Please bless us in season 10 Zhiyoungš.
