Flying hero meta is awful
Johnny/Storm meta has already made me want to quit Rivals and go back to OW. By far the least amount of fun I have had in games so far.

Also... the amount of ground clutter now from Torch is awful. Literally graphics everywhere. Huge fail in hero design.

Human Torch is terrible
Roland's 2nd Feb 21 @ 3:50pm 
Scarlet WItch, Punisher Star-Lord, Namor, a Bucky with good aim, Cloak and Dagger, A Widow with good aim, Invisible Woman's pulse field, a Magneto with good aim, Spider-Man

All of these things can counter and handle flying characters. Complaining about flying characters is 100% a skill issue.

Don't forget Luna Snow! I play her and have a field day shooting down any flying hero with her hitscan fire type. Especially when my shift ability is free. Like, they can't do much against it.

Maybe its because people don't know how to play him yet, but human torch almost makes me feel bad when I kill him.

Every game I play has a human torch and storm on the other team. I just run Namor and ruin their day.

That must be why Storm is the 2nd most banned hero at the moment in grandmaster and above. Those GM and Celestial players have such bad skill.

she is banned not because she is an OP damage dealer, she is banned cause she is a strong damage dealer that can damage buffs her teammates, so adding another team up to her isnt a good move. She is already over picked, giving her another team up is just making it worse. She still gonna get banned every game though, so it wont make a difference.

It's annoying when you're trying to tank with a close combat hero and none of the four people playing DPS wants to deal with the flying people, letting them run riot over everything :rfacepalm:

Its problem with the team though, not the heroes

shes also banned couse she can kinda counter the 3 support Ult by either forcing 1 to be used or waiting 1 out with her ult.

Flyers are just an anomoly too. There are only 3 flyers in the game, Ironman, storm, and torch. All can be dealt with easily but sicne they usally out of ur FOV u wont notice them beofre they usally get first hit. I play invis woman and either pull them closer if possible or just use the pulse

Once people eventually(hopefully) realise they can move their crosshair upwards into the air and shoot the people flying it won't be much of a problem. It may take a few years though for them to figure that out from how I see people playing currently.

Johnny is the least of the issues facing Rivals atm. Aside from the load optimization, the new character to be frustrated with is actually The Thing.
I have no idea who thought it was a good idea to have a character that flies up in the skybox but also leaves damaging terrain all over. So you have to look up, and also look down, because apparently I'm a chameleon and can do that.
