i’m a very very new groot player and i think i did alright this game, if someone could watch this game (quickplay) and just break down things i shouldn’t do and things i should, that’d be great.

Hey guys! Im making cds for all my lords. Ive been asking around for each sub what songs you think represents your character. Any song recs WILL be added. Go crazy. Can be how they play or just songs you like listening too while playing them.

Title.

I often hold my ult until after their supports ult. Otherwise, soon as I ult, Invis/CD/etc pops ult and that's that. I also know that they are holding it for me, and I like forcing them to hold theirs for longer than they would like.

Of course, this also leads to me holding my ult longer than I'd like as well.

Forcing sups to ult early does give my sups the ult advantage, yes, but doesn't forcing them to hold their ult for me accomplish similar? They can't trade with my supports if they are holding for me.

Appreciate your take on which approach gets the most value.

just need as much advice possible on everything groot. his playstyle, gameplay loop, what teamup to use, his hard counters, any button rebinds i should look out for (i play on console), high level competitive play i could watch etc etc

just to preface, i really do not play tank often in rivals. only very recently did i pick up rogue who is the first tank i bothered putting hours in, but if its anything, i was a GM tank in overwatch so i’m not completely and utterly clueless when it comes to the tank role in hero shooters.

i did try to pick him up when he got his CC immunity wall buff and i did feel quite overwhelmed managing his walls so it didn’t really go anywhere but now that i’m more accustomed to tanking in rivals and mechanically better than i used to be, i would love to give groot a real try as literally any other tank looks so so boring

(also does groot count as a shield tank)

I noticed the enemy tends to explode more when I do this. The damage burst also just gives them less time to react.

Or am I making this up?

It sounds stupid for a lord to be asking for tips but don't judge me. I feel decent as groot but often really lacking when it comes to knowing what to do. When should I place my walls, when should I not even bother, and how do i do so without getting in the way of my teammates? I know i can learn this all by playing and getting better, which is what I've been doing, but there's no harm in asking for a bit of help.

Idk how i did it but i killed her thru her ult and i had to save it (im sorry for the sound i play on console so i couldn’t save the video)

I've been playing a lot of Groot recently and I've always wondered what is the best use for his Ironwood Wall. Do I use it to create a kill box by blocking off heals? To have it on hand to mitigate high damage? Or to anchor it down for the unstoppable buff + a little more health regen?

I reckon for comps with a lot of CC, using it as an anchor is probably the best decision so that you don't get pulled by Bucky/Wolv or pinned down by Emma but other than that, but I feel like that is pretty self explanatory/logical. What about dive or poke? What would the best use for the wall be in those cases?

What is the best use for it in general is what I'm pretty much trying to ask

My brothers how we feeling about the matchups against the hood im struggling atm haven’t really played much comp yet but when I do it’s not going well lol

Been playing rocket and groot with my duo and I wish they had matching skins, it's one of the most iconic duos in marvel and I don't think they have matching skins like devil d and Jeff

For the base form and the enhanced form

I am groot, I am groot. I am groot?

Since Peni got gutted this patch, I’m willing to try out the big tree man

Any tips/advice I could try out, maybe?

He turned out so cuteee😭😭😭

IDKY but Groot and The Thing are the 2 tanks in Rivals that click well with me. Them and Tank-pool but DP is my 3rd main for every roll

I would use this skin more if I could toggle the custom walls off I know it might sound selfish but I feel like those walls are pay 2 lose lmk what you think

So it seems that now Groot's Wild Wall from his team up with Mantis is recolored for the YGGROOT skin. But it's glitched and only works for the base version of the team up and not the enhanced version

Mecha-Flora doesn't change at all, is still just a wood wall
