The Thing is the worst vanguard in the game.

[Constantin]

We had to wait so long for this trash Vanguard.

[Jala Haru]

He's pretty good actually

[Nostalgic-Heretic]

Why is he bad?

The only thing they could improve, that you could use your shield without a teammate.

I like him would say he is a 7/10 with the change a 8.5/10

[Searu]

He's not that bad he's good if the team follows with his pushes, he can stunlock pretty much everyone which makes things easier for the dps to do their job. Like every other tank though he needs heals and if he overpushes he's straight up dead. He's an immovable object not an invulnerable force.

hes different. people who dont understand different, tend to hate for no reason.

Stop trying to 1v6 the enemy team and play him like the wall he is. He excels at holding points and keeping divers off your healers. Someone comes near you, your team, or your point? ram em. Diver going for your healers? jump to em' and beat the ♥♥♥♥ out that Iron Fist, Spider man, or Psylock, Clobberin' time? clobbering time. There is a reason he is 1 star and that is because his game plan is simple - hold points, protect allies, clobber. Simple as.

You had 1 good game with him and now he is good, he is trash at even doing that. See you next patch when they will talk about how The Thing is garbage and they are buffing him. Watch.

[Kunomatata]

his LMB and RMB have same TTK. They fumbled any uniqueness

Well you had 1 bad game with him and decided he's bad. He's been out for a day and been really good from what I've seen, that's in part because people haven't found counters yet but I've had 13 matches played as him 25ish matches against him and he's pretty much always been good so far

I'd argue you shouldn't judge characters right a way. Give people time to get used to them and actually figure out what they can and cannot doe first before passing judgement.

They serve 2 different purpose. One applying pressure, sustained damage the other is a massive burst. If you think this way you just play him wrong.

[76561199824407895]

Actually he is very strong I would say. He is like Hulk, except he cannot be CC'd. Anyone who plays hero shooters knows that CC is the biggest enemy of any tank players.

[76561199816511545]

He's really good maybe not the best but he's up there. Those escapes he can do are crazy. I think it needs a nerf to be honest.

[Shuyin178]

People didn't like having Peni on their team until they figured out how to use her too.
I feel like he's more of a team tank. His job is to assist whoever is in a scrap, not be the scrap itself. Fellow tank in the front needs some assistance? Leap to him to give damage reduction and knock up enemies. An ally in the back is getting dove? Leap to them instead and peel.
The Thing is a Vanguard, but he is not a front of the line Vanguard. His job is to assist whoever needs assistance, which is exactly what we need with the diver buffs this patch.

[Blazer Wifle]

His dash sensibility is waaaay to high. Controlling it feels awful.
