Marvel Rivals MISTER FANTASTIC Guide: Do This And Play Better Instantly

[@CoolGuyGames]

Thank you for spending a little bit of your day with me. Mr Fantastic is actually really strong when you do this and have been having great games with him personally.. What do you think of him?

[@logandruley3061]

having a blast with him so far, really enjoy his playstyle. was stoked to see this on my feed man, was a big fan of firing range, you and merc in particular. hope all is well with ya

[@askaflamininja]

I'm just happy that the youtubers who put so much work into Destiny, especially the pvp guys who got fed plates of shit for YEARS now finally have a game to cover that can help their channels get to where they should be. At long last.

[@askaflamininja]

Just checked the views on your last few Rivals videos and I am even more happy to see that as of today it's not just the Groot one doing well. Mozeltoff brother.

[@thadandyman]

I'm so happy that one of my favorite Destiny youtubers happened to transition to one of the two games I've left Destiny for, and they happen to be making the best character guides in the Rivals community. Keep it up!

[@zim6242]

What is the second one then?

[@BEARRISHH]

I feel the exact same way

[@askaflamininja]

Same brother, I'm just happy that the youtubers who put so much work into Destiny, especially the pvp guys who got fed plates of shit for YEARS now finally have a game to cover that can help their channels get to where they should be. At long last.

[@pd-sk]

Yeah years ago I left Destiny for Warframe, I was tired of my gear getting absolutely outdated with every update..

[@ThatManRicco]

Tried Mr Fantastic myself and had no idea what I was doing. Watched your vid and went back again with some more direction, and I got MVP on my first game. You’ve always been my fav for Destiny and now this too, thank you Cool Guy!

[@vyrion157-i6s]

My personal tip is: Do not be afraid to cancel your inflated mode. You keep the bonus health for a while as it decays, but more importantly it gives you access to your abilities and full range. Excellent for chasing, retreating, or finishing someone off from a distance.

[@possumwithacowboyhat5140]

In my opinion, you SHOULD be cancelling it early, and often. It allows exactly two swing combos, so six swings. There’s about 1 second at the end of the second combo where his last swing is finishing and the model is resetting. Cancel it as the last swing goes out and you get about a half second to a second back in your combo loops.

[@dylanmiller1140]

Happy that Coolguy is taking enough time to actually learn and play these characters to make detailed guides way better than generic guides. Only issue is it takes a while to get that playtime and I want more guides to watch sooner. Good problem to have!!!

[@TheDeerInTheHeadligh]

mister fantastic and invisible woman are both about peel. if someone's on your tank? peel off from your team and go help them. if someone's on your flanker? peel off from your team and go help them. if someone's on your backline? peel off from your team and go help them. they both have incredible tools for it: mister fantastic's shield dash and pull, invisible woman's push/pull and projected barrier. no one on your team should ever lose a 1v1 because no one on your team should ever even be in a 1v1.

[@shadyrebob5999]

Coolguy! So glad you hopped over to Rivals. My favorite D2 creator by far! I've been having a great time, but man, your videos are by FAR the best in this game! How about a video on Cloak and Dagger or Scarlett Witch?

[@96Logan]

Something I found out in the practice range, and I haven't googled anything about it so idk if someone else has figured it out or if it's semi useless.. But the brief window as soon as you get that 100 elasticity, you can go into your penguin stance. You retain the elasticity. It does not go away for some reason. Immediately after the penguin stance is done, Mr. Fantastic goes tank mode. I suppose it could be useful to stall if enemies are too far away and you don't want to enter tank stance right away. They see you hitting them, you pop penguin stance, and then they might think it's time to go in. Nope. Boom 800 tank mode when they least expect it.

[@thegoat4314]

Bet

[@96Logan]

Also, I just watched a Team Captain video before bed where he played Mr. Fantastic. I could have sworn that he even was able to use the E during that brief window. I am going to test it for myself tomorrow. I am 99% sure he got to 100 elastic and then yeeted himself towards the enemy before he transformed. That's even more impressive imo.

[@guy-tv4qb]

I've not had a main in this game, but since day 1 of Mr. Fantastic I've been loving him and he may very well be my main now

[@elaborar4934]

4:12 “But you can also be flexible with him” pun intended?

[@User-ir7go]

No glaze, but you speak super clear and have awesome voice for informative vids like this

[@GreatKhalCaleb]

Bro this guy is glazing like a mf

[@joshuakletke]

The marvel rivals community doesn’t understand how blessed they are to have coolguy making guides. Seriously the best to do it!!

[@jtcole146]

I am so happy you made the transition to marvel rivals, so many people are going to benefit from your guides :)

[@markstopher]

Been watching you for yeeeeears because you made amazing D2 guides for specific weapons. just wanted to say that you're killing it w/ the marvel rivals guides, too. thank you!!!

[@xSupajesusX]

Your guides are seriously the best, i was an instant sub with your groot guide and i look forward to each new one we get, thank you!

[@CoolGuyGames]

thank you for watching them

[@theomen6333]

Same actually lol. The moment I saw the Groot guide I knew I was going to watch every guide. Now I main Groot for my tanks, and Storm as one of my dps.

[@xSupajesusX]

​@theomen6333 same here! I also really enjoy mister fantastic so this came at the perfect time

[@PastorJummp]

He’s been the best KZbinr for Destiny 2 for years now. He puts out quality content and guides vs rushing out half baked material. The D2 community that shifted to marvel rivals was blessed when cool guy began to make guides 👍

[@mr.goochthethird1222]

@@theomen6333 same here lol

[@Kimo-Cyrus]

Guy wasn't lying. I went from doing nothing to getting pretty high on the scoreboard doing this. He's really fun and I do feel like I'm helping the tank/support if they get dived

[@greenninja757]

I don't know why it took me until now to figure out that you don't NEED to slap two people together with the grab- I'd hit one and scramble to find another to slap into em and just waste the ability, huge difference now, great stuff.

[@LaztheLax]

Omg dude I've been strangling the fuck out of a single person for so long I forgot I can throw two..missed some doubles like that 😂😢

[@placeadrien5566]

Here's a trick I learned from the rank 1 mr fantastic's gameplay : Whenever you're at 100 passive, right before you go into tank mode, you can shift. This won't lose you any passive stack and simply delay the transformation. This is very good for several reasons : - delaying cooldowns for the next combo - compared to using shift *after* tank mode, this allows you to burst down a target with the shift's damage THEN go into tank mode to finish them off. - when you shift people will stop focusing which gives you a couple microseconds of being into tank mode while not being focused by 6 people Shift is both mr fantastic's best defensive and offensive tool and this trick allows it to shine at doing both imo.

[@JarJarFettLV]

Your Rivals content is so good, man. This feels like your next big step especially in Destiny’s current state. I look forward to your next Rivals video every time I finish one!

[@nickredheadedmut]

Another great video! I watched a lot of your d2 weapon reviews, discussing unique and off-meta interactions for different rolls, and these new hero guides really take advantage of your more analytical approach to pvp, combos, and synergies. I've loved all the guides so far, and I'm excited to see more. Good luck!

[@DiRT_BAG_CALi]

I think maining groot, and if you havta play dps (because team already has 1 or 2 tanks) mr fantastic would be a great dps main. Similar damage/aiming mechanics as groot! Once again, thank you for another guide video mr cool 🫡

[@tomasarakaki4597]

This isnt related to this video, but I just wanted to say, your video about groot helped me climb so much, I feel like my presence matters on every single matchup and that i allow my flanks to make so many kills, im very satisfied. About playing tank, i wanted to know if you plan on doing a thor guide, i play him offensively and distracting the team but im not sure if theres a better playstyle or techs that i might not know.

[@sparkplug6837]

I started playing competitive as Mr fantastic today - and even though multiple times I’ve struggled and have been told to switch, I enjoy playing him a lot and when I’m able to do well as him I feel fantastic

[@ThePmcderm91]

Great guide!!! Thank you so much CoolGuy 😊

[@mr.goochthethird1222]

This video is just FANTASTIC!!!

[@onepunchbro]

His MVP animation is sooo goofy , tbh his whole kit is goofy , I love it 🤣🤣

[@NoxHelios]

It's his thing, he got the best brains and the goofiest of powers, lol that's why I love his character hahaha

[@vasilyzaytsev2223]

I see a cool guy video. I click a cool guy video

[@UnlimitedBlakeWorks]

Its insane how low effort most rivals content is. This is an astonishingly high bar they now have to be conpared tob

[@NoxHelios]

That's why healthy competitions are the best in any field because in the end of the day the consumer and the producer are winning

[@Madhamz]

Very cool guide from Coolguy. Gonna go home and try this. I dominated with Storm thanks to your vid and hope to get more value out of Mr Fantastic

[@OdinAesthetic]

Subscribed over others because you mentioned to controller button. Appreciated greatly.

[@quarvo23]

Another d2 refugee. Tragic. Commenting for the algorithm. Salute partner

[@Fishyking1000]

Finally someone that understands my character this is just… FANTASTIC

[@OmniKing_17]

I love this character and I think part of what will contribute to him getting better over time is his own team understanding his strengths and weakness/playstyle, etc.

[@Bojjitsu]

Exactly this. I had a strategist complain and say Fantastic wasn’t doing much so switch to a dps. But I was peeling two divers the whole game and finished with high pick and stats. Everyone is in Wolverine ignorance rn.

[@Pukachu6]

Thanks for the guide!

[@GreenBro11]

Infeel like Mr. Fantastic is majorly underrated right now. He does have some clunky mechanics with the time it takes to shift between his forms, but a well played Fantastic makes the whole team harder to deal with. Happy someone is actually breaking down his playstyle instead of just saying he’s bad or that he only works with two tanks.

[@lossless4129]

Your videos are top tier brother!

[@TheTraveler980]

Winter Soldier: ARMED AND- Mr. Fantastic: FANTASTIC! Both: AGAIN! AGAIN! AGAIN!

[@DjNaste]

Thank your for your service in shutting down the "Fantastic is a trash DPS" propaganda. It's true that he is a trash DPS, but that's because he is actually just a tank shoved into the Duelist category.

[@nhaskell]

Love to see a video form you on Thor

[@Thereallouisjr]

I can’t wait to use him with The Thing. I think the Four of them will be so good together

[@jschlopes]

Great video! Do you think you’d ever make a black panther video in the future?

[@fizzmoe9846]

Mr fantastic should only be brawling with the tanks in order to bait out supports or dps to gank. He’s the perfect dps to dive with because he can both dive and anchor the point. If you latch onto a venom or hull when they’re moving, you go with them and way further. Also, ult in doorways or low clearings. Very quick slams

[@sixpiece]

My guy please tell me how you are getting the data from these abilities!

[@xSupajesusX]

I feel like i find myself in situations where i just get focus fired down when i play in the front line before i can even do anything. Is it more about really focusing on staying with your tank and not extending out?

[@CoolGuyGames]

correct. Play to them. When you double bump them shields, you are at 60 elasticity. 2 melees and the grab is 100. Then you brawl with them. Even though you take a ton, you get a ton of health. 350 to 500. then 500 to 950.

[@Laxrocks571]

Great video - u got me to subscribe

[@jacobfoxfires964]

I was thinking of what the playstyle and being almost a buddy to the tank. A bit of a support to the tank, being able to displace annoyances like Wolverine, and also have some pseudo tanking abilities. Honestly I think if someone gets good at Mr. Fantastic, it might make a good comp with him being 132. 1 of the good tanks you can solo like Magento or Strange, 3 duelists including Mr. fantastic, and 2 strategists. I will definitely wait and see because I do see the vision in this.

[@mrlolmw2]

Just be super mindful when the enemy team has dive heavy comps. Sometimes giving the shields and cc to ur supports means life or death for them (esp against good Panthers, spidermen, magiks)

[@victortayupe8794]

I've done the exact same thing but instead I do auto into pull then double bump with auto in between, its almost the same but just realized is harder since the pull can miss whem you are farther away. Yeah Mr. F is pretty much an off tank and has more survivability than a thor or a captain america IMO 😅

[@pilau]

thank you for breaking his abilities down.... seriously helped me fight against him. lol

[@Pretralus]

Braniac bounce in areas with low ceilings has insane burst damage.

[@chrisedwards253]

He’s defs the hardest to kill out of all the dps. Like when you compare a character like black widow against him, she has no chances even if you headshot him a few times.

[@NoxHelios]

Yeah a tank masked in a dps role I love that, it's simply amazing dynamic, now we see the vision the had for not wanting to implement a role Q

[@RyanThistle]

Not playing rivals, just here day 1 to hear you discuss character kits the way Panos Panay talked about computers 👍

[@misfit1422]

I was wondering if you can do I guide for Namor, I’ve been playing him and he’s really good and alot of fun, you can have one of his sentries to help defend back line and healers while having his other help annoy the enemies as the tank goes in. His ult is also very powerful if used correctly, using your ult while having your squids out makes them automatically shoot at where the ult was and at any enemy hit by it. Also Luna on your team gives Namor a 3rd sentry that slows

[@NemSumeragi]

For the combo section, I'd assume you could probably just do Basic Melee > Elongation after the pull to kill 275 heroes?

[@lemonthevegetable509]

I like this guide a lot, but I think I can add on to things if you didn’t mention it (?) For starters, for Mr. Fantastic’s pull in, even if you miss you still get 30 elasticity. This is important because you can prep your elasticity in spawn or right before a fight. Also, when you go into your big form you need to know that you ARE a bigger target (funny enough you get a 20% movement speed boost) and you LOSE your abilities. Imo, you arguable have more survivability in your normal state. Mr. Fantastic is a jack off all trades master of none, you will feel like you’re not doing a lot sometimes and that’s okay. Mr. Fantastic is STAT monster but tbh that’s all he provides, just provides stats. But overall he is strong if played right. My tips are the moment you lose your overhealth in his elastic form cancel it rinse repeat.

[@HoopleHeadUSA]

Im addicted to this game

[@NoxHelios]

Who isn't?

[@Ridge82848]

It’s all about sticking with the tanks and group fight/ability management. He can get melted in 1v1s. This is Wolverine all over again. Watch Mr. F get a buff next season and become busted

[@JoeAmos17]

You playing on ultra wide? Looks awesome

[@CoolGuyGames]

yeah, it's an MSI OLED and it's crazy dude lol

[@dasbeak5618]

Mr. Fantastic and Wolverine is a NASTY combination

[@Zical100]

also activate allie health display for him(if you don`t use default for everyone, for clutter reasons)

[@mapowey]

If you die remember to blame it on the boogie and no one can be mad that you died (the boogie is infallible)

[@snakeking596]

Imma be so *Fantastic* as him after I watch this video

[@ceruleanwizard]

I don't even wanna play Mr. Fantastic, but I wanted to watch your guide to understand him more. If I am to beat my enemy I must understand my enemy, and I swear he is one of the most annoying characters to fight against. I main Magik, and I DUMP damage into Fantastics all the time, and those bastards just regain health and shield at every swipe. AND NOW I KNOW WHY!!

[@SlingshotBlurOnKSA]

THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE A GUIDE.

[@ant161]

Can you make a guide for magneto

[@SaveTheContent]

So basically giving everyone free backshots is optimal gameplay

[@kylelogan5013]

Flexible elongation.. aka backshot

[@eldenstatesman]

who the eff is this guy and why is everything he puts out so money

[@UnlimitedBlakeWorks]

Destiny content creators are buolt different

[@kixxlies]

i guess you could say he’s a cool guy

[@taciovinicius5506]

He is a flexible character.

[@TheMetalInsideUsAll]

I think hes not a tank moreso hes just a frontline dps, pretty unique cause hes mellee. Usually they would be classed as tank but his goal isnt to soak up damage its to deal damage at the front of the team.

[@Ragequit47]

Nice thumbnail

[@ArchWizardCj]

Bro deaduzz sounds like Mr Fantastic

[@NobleRenegade7]

Ok but why is he more of a tank than captain america?

[@NoxHelios]

Who told you that buddy? Have you seen the rank 1 Cap? He is unkillable most of the time, these tanks arnt all to just stay up front and block damage the characters are dynamic and flexible treat and play then as such.

[@itsnotmily]

i dont get how his ult stops. it says it keeps going as long as you hit, but even in practice range i hit a bot and then it stops? in the first clip of this video you hit enemy mr fantastic and your ult stops too

[@warmachine3007]

Yo brother! Can we get a cool guy/sirD collab? Would love to see some destiny peeps fireteam up for some marvel rivals

[@Veirdjil]

And remember No "Gomu-Gomu"

[@onepunchbro]

Can his primary damage through Dr. Strange's shield?

[@thejunkmanlives]

yea, theres depth here that i wasnt seeing in games. hes a dps built for tank players.

would it be possible to launch the enemy into the air if you pull the enemy after you use the raccoon's jump boost ability?

[@NoxHelios]

Yes possible but very niche usage right there

[@sirius7180]

You really can target kill and target protect.

[@frostythecaseman]

Do you think it's practical to play him in a 2x2x2 comp? I like to play him but when I have two tanks on my team I feel like he's not a good dps pick cause he plays like a 3rd tank.

[@NoxHelios]

He does good damage bro he is a good dps when played correctly.

[@DoctorSilence95]

I barely move them when pulling them. Any advice?

[@NoxHelios]

Get a bigger mouse pad and move that ARM bro

[@thickums5344]

"You can be flexible with him" Say that again.

[@Birdy235]

Very like Richards, but a lot streamers give him a bad tier score.😢

[@travismatos9068]

I really don’t understand the team up with invisible woman

[@NoxHelios]

Just have a quick second to read it's not rocket science I swear.

[@jombii-7090]

Ill say it again. if youve played smite, then he'll feel kinda familiar as an "Off Tank"/Bruiser

[@Chunta24]

This is funny because you know how the duelist be begging for heals far away because He's an off tank he's up there in the heal priority since he'd be with the tanks so if you wanna be pumped and still ne a duelist that's you guys

[@PewPewShootEmUp]

He's Brigitte to me

[@kenanroberson]

In his ult, you do NOT get more damage for being in “tank mode”.

[@kenanroberson]

Only value is the extra HP

[@shadowinversion]

How to play Reed = Backshot Sue in spawn.

[@NoxHelios]

With mods it can get freaky out there 🥵

[@wishbone1231]

Yep destiny is slowing drifting. My man uploaded marvel rivals content lol

[@travismatos9068]

All of my teammate think he’s a throw pick If the whole team is doing bad im the one they say should switch Does anyone else feel this way? Do y’all think he’s bad? I’m a Diamond 1 player currently btw Finished in GM 3 last season Have 8 hours with him already

[@NeoAnguiano]

he is flexible... i get it...

[@professorinkedgaming]

theres no technique to games. the one with the best aim will win. no matter wat

[@elitexkaoz]

A futile attempt

[@hyper312lethal]

First comment

[@hitachiuchihamagicwand2776]

I'll give him a shot but all the top players say hes bottom tier.

[@phasedthrough3647]

Same crap they said about Wolverine on launch till one person popped off and we discovered he’s a tank buster

[@christianglassel9950]

If CoolGuy says he's good, he's good. Man doesn't make any content without the receipts.

[@OracleIllumis]

Mr Fantastic is actually a tank, the devs put him into duelist to trick people into tanking. xD
