That Luna is going to take a restraining order out on you. Imagine if that person wasn't actively trying to counter your plays.

[@chillasduck]

As another fairly high skill venom player, the best advice I can give is to save your swing as an escape rather than a tool used to engage. Wall climb into a position they won't expect, dive, tendril and auto them try to secure some kills, pop shield if low and THEN use your swing to get back to your healers. Rinse and repeat for success :)

Problem is when you use swing and get put to sleep by Mantis or frozen by luna. what to do?

[@johnkelly1386]

As a fellow venom main, yes, I'd also add on, signal to healers when you're pushing, so they don't leave you stranded. And don't push when your team is getting flanked. No healer, equal dead venom, and we don't like a dead venom here

[@oldjebidiahbrown2454]

Wolverine and venom have the same voice actor. He also voices acts Tank Dempsey in cod zombies, Baraka in mortal kombat, and several other roles in the video game industry.

Venom main here: Alot of people are mistaken by his ult, it should be used as initiations or sustain. The damage it deals is 50% of an enemy's CURRENT health... not maximum...plus a flat 40 damage. And you heal for 100% of the damage dealt. So you can imagine ulting a monster hulk at 1500HP would give you. Or you can use it like he did when they were all bunched up, he ulted all of them together, so its a combined HP pool he stole from them.

[@nightsidebeats4719]

Yea I think people just don’t understand how venom works. I main venom too. I don’t see anything impressive. He’s doing exactly what our kit is made to do. I don’t see anything unique. Even webbing the ground to close the distance is a regular thing

[@iamcool456123]

Another thing is he rarely engages with swing, he never dives in without a swing to get out/re-engage.

[@jbarbs808]

Yes swing is for getting away not getting in. You can wall crawl and dive

The problem with Venom is that he is HARD countered by HARD CC. Stun/Sleep etc at low HP will prevent his Symbiotic Resilience from proccing and he just dies.

[@BlueHundred1]

yup. I played a ton of venom in the beginning but the better players just cc the shit out of him as soon as he procs shield. Mantis and Luna are like the top 2 supports too, so you're getting cc'd a lot

[@KoyomiVamp15]

6:08 that's a cool tech i just found out from this video. Normally you cannot use Diving Strike if you just jump normally because it has a minimum height requirement to be used. But if you jump over a ledge, the game considers the new ground way below you as a valid height requirement and you can now use Diving Strike just by simply jumping. No wall climbing and no swinging required.

[@johnglaspy6057]

Oh, so it's a Jay3 glitch with his 5'3 frame?!❤?!😂?!🎉?!😊

[@Weightsss]

What I love about this Venom is that he’s not always using his swing for his dives. He uses the environment and has the swings on stand by for either another attack or a reset.

[@kloqss4478]

I love how all those people in chat saying the players are bad yet most of the viewers are probably not even plat

[@SquidKingSalazar]

Nah fr though, I’ve seen bad players before and these guys were doing strats and plays I definitely don’t see in my lobbies in Silver 😂 excellent teamwork and pushes all the way through too. Even the enemy team was pulling out some tricky plays like with that Strange portal. Anyone else have that happen to them and I’m sure it’d be a massacre but that Venom played it perfectly. People don’t know how effective he was at Venom, when I play him I’m doing decent but not anything special, other teammates play him and they throw by diving alone

[@garrettgreen9667]

[@skaterknight1]

As a venom main, hunting down lunas is pretty accurate lmao

[@Sheo.G]

I wish his swing got a 2-3 sec cd reduction. As a wrecking ball player, it just feels unnatural as long as it is. I feel like he needs it too tho as sometimes at low hp you could be doing absolutely nothing; extra moility would be nice to swing between health packs.

[@lukemiller8342]

This guy was smart by using the environment to dive in to save his swing to get out

[@Sheo.G]

@lukemiller8342 yeah, realistically you cannot swing straight into the enemy team. You gotta swing onto a building and crawl while you wait for swing to come off cd to then use as disengage. 7/10 times you're facetanking on your feet. That's just bad gameplay and he's not that fun because of it. And then there's Spiderman who's in the air 90% of the time.

[@iKrazyyi]

Yeah Venom needs a small buff and I think that'd be the buff he needs. A small CD reduction on his swing would do wonders.

[@TheDoats]

That was insane but you need to spectate that Loki next. 29 kills, 0 deaths, and 30 heal assists is crazy

[@imcyk0371]

I’m guessing venom has the “automatic swing” setting just like spiderman, if you have it on you can’t use the webs like that to throw yourself forward or down

[@habijjj]

Yeah when you turn it off it's literally like playing spiderman ps4 except you have to manually aim at a downward angle to web zip

[@yarachaz]

[@Steven-ob4lp]

Venom is a back-line harasser, literally after you're done harassing the backline; you go help out your team to finish the job. He's a fast pace tank, while his ult is definitely circumstantial; it's basically a finisher, a prepper for your dps to finish them off, a survival play, or lastly yet more importantly; a bait.

[@LasVegasHills]

Luna always trying to be the star of the show🤣

[@Mali8029]

I watched top 5 playing venom yesterday, if anyone is interested look for Vinnie, he also plays Magneto and swaps between the 2 beautifully. Nice playstyle to watch, almost always starts on Venom for the disruption.

[@JenRut-kz9vx]

This is so fun, never get tired of watching your posts.

[@Forwhut]

I feel like Venom is kind of hard to use, the tendrils is kind of his only attack he has and it doesn’t do enough damage. Other than melee he has no other high damage option. You NEED a great healer if you’re playing Venom

[@treysmith9371]

“Bad positioning by Hawkeye” bro he was coming out of spawn 😭😂

[@W2Tymes]

Venom’s ult is very situational. I use to get away every now and then if swing is on cooldown. It’s not killing anyone unless they’re below like 35-40% health.

If you have a cellular corrosion it stays active through his ult. Slam, cellular corrosion, ult, kills most squishies.

1.) That dash mechanc - it's venom swing ability. you need to go to settings and change the mode from "auto" to "manual" (something like that) - with that, you manually aim where you want to swing from/to, including dashing on floors. 2.) Venom's ult in used to initiatie fights - you chop 50% of their health and get a health boost, your teammates then nuke them out. 3.) Use swing mostly to get out of fights - Climb the walls to position yourself for frenzied arrival, wreak havoc, use swing to get out of fights. If you go in with swing, you have no escape ability.

I think the main thing that sticks out with Solis's Venom (aside from his game sense and positioning) is his ability to consistently deal damage with no wasted seconds. Not only is he pressing melee in between his attacks, he's also pressing his attack button INBETWEEN his ability combo (ex. dive ability -> attack -> E ability -> attack -> ult). This venom for sure plays moba games

[@elreydeva3006]

I thought the venom web zip was common knowledge. Same thing can be done with Moon Knight. Aim at any point on the floor ahead of you and it will launch you in a straight line, giving you a massive speed boost.

[@SmickyD]

Venom ult does 50% damage to current hp. its an engage tool. you want to use it as an engage on as big of a group as possible to soften the enemies for your dps. if you are using it just to get kills on the backline you are wasting a lot of potential damage. big group ults or very rare cases of picking off the backline when the tank is already dead. always try to get the enemy tank in the hitbox if you can. Bonus tip: the game tells you exactly when you use your E. once you hear the low hp sound queue. learn to anticipate what damage you will be taking and you will only get better at the timing.

[@geminiriot]

I think the main take away here was competent strategists. As a Venom I never get healing...
