Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into “Marvel Rivals” lately, and let me tell you, getting Deadpool just right has been a journey. I wanted to share my experience, from the initial struggle to finally nailing his playstyle.
First off, I jumped in blind. No guides, no tutorials, just straight into the chaos. Big mistake. I figured, “Hey, it’s Deadpool, how hard can it be?” Turns out, pretty hard. I spent the first few matches getting absolutely wrecked. I was trying to play him like a straight-up brawler, you know, running in guns blazing.
- I kept getting mowed down.
- My K/D ratio was embarrassing.
- I think I even heard some teammates sighing over voice chat.
So, I took a step back. I started actually watching how other Deadpool players were doing it. And that’s when it clicked. He’s not about brute force; he’s about being annoying, unpredictable, and just a general pain in the butt.
I started focusing on his mobility. That teleport is a game-changer. I used it to get in, do some quick damage, and then poof, I was gone before anyone could react. Instead of going head-to-head, I started flanking, harassing the enemy from weird angles. And those grenades? Forget aiming them perfectly, I just chucked ’em everywhere. Chaos is your friend with Deadpool.
The “A-ha!” Moment
It really all came together during one match on the Yggsgard map. I was constantly teleporting behind the enemy snipers, messing up their shots, and then zipping away before they could even turn around. I used the grenades to block off choke points, forcing the other team to take the long way around. And that ultimate? I saved it for when the enemy team was clumped together, and boom, instant multi-kill.
I wasn’t top of the leaderboard or anything, but I was effective. I was disrupting the enemy, creating openings for my team, and generally making their lives miserable. And that, my friends, is the true essence of Deadpool.
My key take away is play to his strengths and to have fun.
