How to deal with wolverine as tank?

[SKiV_]

I hate this damn character. I shouldnt just die because you press a button on top of me. How the ♥♥♥♥ do i shut this ♥♥♥♥♥ down?

You don't. Wolverine shuts you down. Your teammates are supposed to help you deal with him.

Unless you are a Tank with no mobility you can't do much. Otherwise just instantly disengage.

Its so unfun to deal with. If there was even a sliver of counter play I might not just swap to support if i have a wolverine that my team cant stop.

Run.

Hope that your Supports with CC and DPS aren't braindead...

If possible and works play Penny stay in minefield and web back if you get tanknapped.
I had good experiences with Hulk because of shield. Use it when he is on high rage to buy you a few moire seconds. You can jump back on tanknapping.
Or play Mr. Fantastic as Tank. He scales on his 300 base HP not one the overhealth you can generate like mad.. After tanknapping hit shift or use e to jump back to your team.

as mentioned above, i had good matchups as penny, you just place your nest behind a wall, enough to cover some ground, then you block off the flank entries with your web and mines. Aside from that thor can work too, he has mobility and can get extra health too.

Funnily enough, Its starting to look like they're adding a tank that is semi-immune to CC abilities, The Thing as his ult and other abilities apparently will make him briefly immune to CC.

stop asking to be able to counter everything with a single hero is how you deal with it

Learn to play others

Wolverine doesn't fare well against peni parker or Captain america, because they either turtle in too much damage, or can run away

other than that, you're honey badger chow, and that is the point of wolverine

If tanks could stop a wolverine, he would be a useless garbage hero

If your team doesn't focus him you're done. Nothing else can you do.

i have denied wolverine as mantis multiple times if they are in my range and have pounced my tank im going to sleep bomb them to get them off before they can do some real damage

that is if the tank is close by aka not hugging the opponents spawn door cause im to busy fending off the opposing team at the objective as best i can

As a Wolverine main the main thing I want to do is to Snatch you away and delivered to my team or Isolate you.
-TRY NOT TO GET TACKLED
-Head on a swivel. Listen and Keep an eye out.
-Once you know a Wolverine is about kinda keep in mind when his last attack was and kinda learn his pattern of attack. Does he go around the flank? Does he attack from Above? Does he just charge straight at you? Hear the classic clown feet of heros stomping behind a wall?

Then use your abilities to help against a Wolverine.
-Peni. She's very easy to grab but a good Peni is very hard for a Wolverine. Catching him in the webs stop him in his tracks and cant do anything about the Spider Nest. Mines hurt.
-Strange. Use his flying ability to get away from Wolverine. Although if you took enough damage he'll just dash into the sky and finish you.
-Magneto and Hulk. Once you learn where, when ,and how he comes at you. You can start using Bubble Shields to negate his tackles.
-Cap and Venom. Run/Swing Away. Idk you tend to be fast so..
-Thor is probably the most Anti Wolverine Tank(?) and can outdamage Wolverine. Although if you pushed a team and took damage and got snatched after, best thing you can do is fly back to your team.
-Groot. The easiest tank to kill as Wolverine. But after an attack and see him running back. Cut him off. As a Wolverine is very Vulnerable when he doesnt have his cooldowns.

You need a team that actually looks after you. Like a team needs to help Wolverine secure the kill.
-Maybe ask a teammate go Invisible Woman, her push will throw off Wolverine and it's very easy to mess up his tackle
-Namors tend to be abit annoying if they can set up and actually hit things.
-Maybe more of an assassin type DPS and take out the enemy Wolverine's Team Backline. Cause Wolverine can be very dependent on his team. For securing Tank kills and Healing as he takes alot of Damage. or just have the assassin go after Wolverine like Psylocke, Panther or Magick as Wolverine can't really catch them.
-Stuns. Peni Web, Mantis Sleep, Luna Freeze, and Winter Hook.
-Everyone shoot him. If everyone wants Wolverine dead. He tends to not last long depending on how good he is and how good his team is.
-Get healed. Doesn't take much healing to negate an attack. Again careful about him Isolating you or being delivered to his team.

If your team is dead and is just you and a healthy Wolverine stomping towards you.
-Hit your shots and use abilities Or than that you're probably gonna die anyways.

Hope this helps anyone. But remember he's an Anti Tank Hero. Soooo these just help not totally negate him. Just have a good team and be a good player.

Obviously wolverine is intended to be anti tank. I'm exaggerating asking to shut him down but there needs to be counter play. Thats what I'm getting at.

[Kaiser]

walk backward/away from him. Keep an ear for his footstep then callout to teammate

[BirdDinosaur]

I only play wolvie because its no fun when the tank is diving my supports
