What team is Psylocke most viable in?

[Joeycentral]

I want to know what characters need to be in the game in order for her to carry her weight and play most optimal to her game. What characters, particularly vanguards and support, allows Psylocke to thrive the most?

All of them? She can instakill the backline with her burst combo and easily build ult by just holding down m1 on tanks lol.

Let me rephrase it: for a Psylocke player not as good as Eskay or Jay, what build is worth using her on?

^ This pretty much. Her ult gets so much value too, it's like DPS version of Luna's ult.

It's pretty easy to land her projectiles and finish people off with the dash. invis allows you to reposition or disappear when the going gets rough.

Pretty sure the 3rd most banned DPS is Psylocke after Hela and Hawkeye.

If you're bad at aiming, there are Brawler heroes who require almost 0 aim, just map and situational awareness, but even Vanguards require some aim.

Yeah I just faced a Psylocke who basically dominated the lobby. I agree I think she needs an entire rework. Make her a melee cahracter who uses katana. I dont remember a single X Men comic where Betsy used a shotgun, but I could be wrong.

Yea Black Widow isn't known for Sniping either lol.

They don't really follow the lore super well when it comes to their kit designs. From the comics I read with Psylocke in them she usually used a wrist mounted Psy-blade too, almost never used the actual katana. (I assume due to them toning down the blood and gore factor, having her use a Pink Psy-blade to dispatch her enemies was less gorey)

This is what happens when you let a group of Chinese devs try to create a game around Marvel heroes...

Yea and Banner (Human Form Hulk) fires Cancer at people in marvel rivals apparently. (Gamma Radiation Gun lol)

Pretty sure he never dispatched his enemies in the comics with cancer.

Just learn the character lol. She's broken.

In the hands of a great player, yes. But Psylocke is only as good as the player playing her. She is broken in the hands of a talented player, but trash in the hands of a bad player.

If Psylocke truly is broken, then how come more people dont play her in low ELO lobbies?
