41K DAMAGE on the "WORST HERO" in Marvel Rivals (GRANDMASTER)

[@Chunta24]

All good things comes to those who wait. I love how you wait till the last sec to use youre tornado they spread out to late and groups back up to early. Truly and amazing Storm.

[@ccs8847]

i actually reallly love the tactic of popping your lightning aura amp when theres a diver on your backline and then just. not paying attention to them after that and shooting down main still. lighting aura tickles them every so often for the added pressure and whoever they are diving has a sudden damage advantage while you can keep your focus on farming that crazy ult from hitting a bunch of people at once

[@crackedblack1410]

I don‘t think she’s the worst hero, I just think no one uses her

[@thaguy]

This 100%. She's definitely hard as hell to use because she's very team oriented. Once people start doing their own thing, it's easier to focus her.

[@ayumuchorizo4486]

Yeah, a conditional/niche pick. But absolutely not weak. There are a couple of other picks like that

[@thaguy]

@@ayumuchorizo4486 What's really crazy is that a lot of the "weak" characters in this game would be so broken in OW. Just imagining Wolvie kidnapping the enemy Rein and messing everything up.

[@Marzellus1991]

Yea her Peni's kit relies on a good oriented team to manage her better. But I really do like her and Squirrel Girl's kit

[@brandonenigma8393]

She just has an usual role because her kit contradicts itself. The speed of her projectiles, the penetration, and aura make her good right between tank and healers or behind some cover close by. If you try to utilize her flight the penetration is wasted due to angles and her bullets take 5-10 business days to arrive.

[@captryvi3482]

I don't think anyone is bad in marvel rivals. It's just that Ironman has more valuable and can secure kills more often than her so she's not that popular. We'll see if that will change when Human Torch comes out since she has a team up ability with her.

[@JahovasFitness]

From what I saw the team-up they have just turns her ult into an fiery tornado which really doesn't seem like it'd do much for her. Her ult is the one part of her kit that doesn't really need any help, so having a team-up where that's the only getting boosted feels kinda redundant. That said, if Storm gets both Thor AND Human Torch on the team then she might be pretty cracked since she's getting two team-up benefits.

[@kojoreynolds8790]

@@JahovasFitness If she out damages healing ults then that's a game changer

[@Loverboy207]

The value in her is that she buffs the whole team. Damage boosts and speed boosts go a long way.

Or do I kinda just have to rely on my team since he can perma-stick to me in the air? He's really the only thing I have troubles dealing with as Storm

[@Sextistsheep]

Activate damage boost (it does aoe multiple times) then when he “locks on” he’s STUCK hit him with one auto and a right click. You aren’t stuck with him he’s stuck with you!

Wow, switch to speed mode to win duel with Hawkeye was dope! Crazy good play ❤

[@Scyclo]

it's people like you that make me happy that storm, a character i wanna main, does actually have potential to be good and isnt a troll pick. IT inspires me to continue getting better with her. Does she need buffs? Yes and no, mostly tweaks would work. she isnt as bad as people say she is, i do just wish that i knew how much my buff provides my allies though, especially when i use goddess blessing. also remove her need to reload and her fall off, its wind, she controls the weather, there should be no fall off or need to reload.

[@GodzillathekingKongbane]

I’m really looking forward to seeing you play her with a Thor and Human Torch. She’s gonna have her own team comp built around her

[@Zaelers]

Literally yesterday I got 25k damage in a stomp 2-0 domination game and someone on my team said "we have the one guy on our team that only plays Storm." She's pretty good and her aura alone is worth like 5k-8k damage every game. You do the damage of a support as an aura, and the damage of a DPS yourself, can make your entire team faster than Mantis, have one of the best ults in the game, one of the better teamups, a piercing ranged basic attack and a hit scan piercing nuke for a right click? I really don't know why more people don't use her.

[@hyperlucario547]

Honestly it's because people play her like how other fliers who want to be high up and spam poke, when she's actually supposed to be played like a brawler and her flight to snipe people who try and escape after her poke.

[@yohumanfrisk]

Honestly, you might just get me to play Storm more because of this comment. I still plan to main Star Lord tho. Jamming hard to Awesome Mix vol. 1-3 while vibin' as Star Lord is euphoric.

[@salj.5459]

Slow, hard to play, doesn't play like other flying characters, cannot critically hit, needs a good team to really make use of her aura

just hit gm3 onetricking storm (your thor is my duo lol) what is your control scheme for storm? specifically I kept the default Ctrl to Descend but my pinkie has been feeling sore.

my controls are default. my keyboard is tilted like 45° though so that might be why it doesnt hurt my pinky

[@Lovebirdd]

I use F for descent.

[@simin6827]

This might be weird… but it works for me, with storm specifically I changed descend to my right click and her original right click ability to my side mouse button 😅 once I got used to it it started feeling much better.

[@simin6827]

11:00 I think the only thing I comment is that storms ult ends her weather effects and saving your next E for when you come out might be a little more optimal

[@bigcsbigbrother3685]

Agreed. Also probably would help not to reload quite so often. I noticed he'd have anywhere from 8 to 11 in the clip, then reload lol. Great gameplay regardless

[@vandayum]

Storm is an amazing unit in the right hands and the team comp is good. The 3star rating should be 5 star bc she is way harder to handle than any other character.

[@salj.5459]

Nah Spiderman should be the only 5-star, Storm is definitely 4-star though

[@Shuyin128MK4]

Something I noticed you doing, you activate the empowered Lightning aura just before you ult Does it actually increase the damage of the ult? I would think the aura effect is disabled during the ult

[@ppeemg]

no. usually I activate my goddess boost before ulting to give my team that extra pressure bc that helps my ult. so minimal, but thats why.

[@playlists4473]

Omg ! What a frantic game! You really play Storm a lot. 👀

[@N.G.H.]

People are saying she's the worst, boring, and this and that. What's ironic is that I used Scarlett Witch to go from nothing to Diamond and Storm helped me and my team I'm with now get to GM. So I'm not sure what the problem is lol. And we're close to ranking up again and I'm still using Storm or Scarlett Witch depending on enemy comp and map and we're doing fine. You basically use her ult to make enemy healers break line of site with their tanks and separate them. So she's kinda like a slow moving buffing turret with a dive ult. And with a Thor online it turns one of her ability into a auto target lightning strike that hits everyone that enters her radius so it goes well with someone who can do fast damage where their healers can't keep up.

[@atne3484]

I went into practice mode and she actually outputs a lot of damage. Pop lightning e, 2 primary fires, and right click to finish it off and 250-275 hp heroes are dead.

[@SeraphimDragon]

Storm's problem can be simplified for why she's just objectively bad, or damn near the worst of the worst. The time and effort it takes to make her serviceable, or to get a kill, simply feels like it's 10x harder than anyone else who shares her role or her abilities. Having played her myself the only opinion I can have of her is she's just a flying ult bot because those are the only abilities that feel the most impactful when using her. And she's nice to look at XP Fly too high and no one gets her buffs. Fly too low and you're an easy target for even enemy team's melee. Too far back and you never hit anything. Too close up and risk getting shredded by even a Strategist unit. Gets out DPS'd per second by every other Duelist. To top it off, Iron Man makes her existence almost completely irrelevant. TL;DR: Why work harder for so little, when you can accomplish more with only a quarter of the effort? Only reasonable answer is because we love the character. Hence people's frustration with Storm in particular.

[@podimegwu12]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@SeraphimDragon she isn’t an easy target if you know how to play around cover and even when u don’t have any it’s still serviceable as she can still move around as u see in this video. She doesn’t get out dps by most other dps as u see in this and other videos she had the most dmg. How does iron man invalidate storm when they don’t even fill the same roles on a team 😂 just cuz they both can fly doesn’t mean she is invalidated. Ong y’all be exposing your ranks with these comments. Where do u see Preston “working harder for so little” to get 41k dmg? You don’t need to be a god to be good with storm you just can’t be an idiot

[@giahypham4111]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@podimegwu12every DPS has to and can play around cover lol, Storm is not the only one. You’re literally picking one video from one of the best storm mains to argue your point. What you’re doing is like posting a video of Hela but misses most of her shot, then claim that the character is the worst. The video show she is capable of dealing a lot of damage, but 41K is not a number that only Storm could achieve and no one else could. And if she is not as hard to utilize as you claim, how come her play rate is so low even in higher rank? Wolverine for example is considered bad, but in higher rank, people actually know how to use him and was able to demonstrate that he is actually a very good pick to burst through tanks. More players are picking him up because of that, yet not many are doing the same with Storm (and other weaker duelists like Scarlet Witch)

[@podimegwu12]

@@giahypham4111 I never said storm was the only dps that can play around cover. I’m not picking one video there are other storm content creators/videos on here in which they easily have the most dmg and/or kills on the team and I even mentioned that in my comment plz read. Just because a characters pick rate is low does not mean they’re a bad character 🤦with that being said wolverine still has the 5th lowest pick rate in the game with 7% and storm has 2% and both are rising so players are picking up on how good these heroes are as the meta is still developing. The game been out for 3 weeks so clearly there will be low pick rate characters that haven’t been fully explored.

[@giahypham4111]

⁠​⁠@@podimegwu12that doesn’t change the fact that your evidence of storm being good and doesn’t need any changes stem from handful of videos of the few Storm main. As someone who likes to play storm, I also look for her video, and what I found is that there are only 3 to 4 storm mains that actually main storm (play her the most to climb) and posted video in higher ranking. I can easily find the same amount or even more people posting about top duelists, but I would never use those videos as indications of whether a hero is objectively doing well in the game or not because they are only a handful of games out of the thousands of games played daily. You said you’re not using this one video, yet in your comments, you keep referring to p2mg and his performance as evidence of your points. The 41K number in this video for example is literally one game, he could be dealing more or less damage in other games that are not posted. Videos on KZbin have these titles for engagement purposes, hence why you can also find videos like Scarlet Witch “dominating the game with 30+ kills” or “how i reached eternity with Black Widow”. And I agree, the game is new, hence why the meta is developing and players are changing their mind about characters. However, it’s clear how fast perception of Wolverine changes compared to Storm (Wolverine goes from one of the worst duelist to a decent pick, and even other high elo players are recognizing this). If you look at the competitive tournaments (coordinated environment), Wolverine are picked in many creative strategies as well as players test him out. There is clearly an issue with storm that leads to her unpopularity and therefore lower pick rates, even in coordinated environment where she should be better due to her team enhancement.

[@dandogamer]

Watching this makes me realize how wrong I'm playing storm. When I play her, I play up in the air and at the back to prevent getting jumped on as much. It seems like I need to play lower to the ground and with the team more
