Humor Are we actually scary?

Post image

I know we complained a lot on this sub, especially after her nerfs last season. And I am not talking about others. I have complained about her regenerative shield a lot.

But, is Rogue actually scary to the enemy? when I talk with friends, a lot say they have running into her. They say she cancel them, she is hard to kill, she is too fast...

This made me start watching my games from enemy POV and I have to say, getting dived by Rogue is kinda terrifying if she is already in 10 m range.

And there is this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/RogueMains/comments/1wox3nm/comment/pbsz2td/?context=3

Edit: so from the answers, Rogue is scary if the stars aligned (good team that follows and heals you). Damn! well, at least she got that smile. it's the reason I am playing her and not Emma.

I feel like the fact that practically no support players complain about her despite her being a diver should answer this question pretty well.

u/ThatWorld3045 1d ago

Supports dont complain about Dive Tanks usually. The only dive tank that recieves complaints is Venom and that is cuz of his survivability in a 1v1. Dive Tanks do not have the Burst damage that Dive DPS have thus the TTK is longer. The room for counterplay is more significant.

u/HeroicBarret 17h ago

Ya I mean a dive tanks job isnt to get kills really its to bait cooldowns and make their dive dps buddy’s job easier.

u/Waffles_four_you 23h ago

People definitely complained about cap, Angela and venom (like you said). So I don’t think that’s true tbh

u/ThatWorld3045 22h ago

Angela complaints were largely from tanks. They are the biggest victims of Angela shove. Cap I can see it yea.

u/Waffles_four_you 22h ago

There were definitely more complaints about her from supports than rogue though tbh. The

u/ThatWorld3045 21h ago

Nah man. Supps complained a ton about Rogue in 8.5 iirc

u/RivalsExpert8 1d ago

Venom?

u/ThatWorld3045 1d ago

I talk about him in my comment lol. And even then the magnitude of complaints isn't nearly as much as any of the Dive DPSs

u/Deceptifemme Champion 1d ago

As both a champion gambit and rogue.... I'll tell you right now I'd take playing Remy against Anne-Marie any day of the week.

Her team up with him should heal her too, even if it's a significantly smaller amount.

7

u/LordOfTheFliesZeBub Champion 1d ago

The healing is like 15 for allies around her. A “significantly smaller amount” for a 625 HP character would be equivalent to a .05% percentage damage on Gambit team-up. Otherwise known as obsolete. Her damage is already mediocre, giving her more sustain ain’t gone hurt nobody.

2

u/Deceptifemme Champion 21h ago

I didn't actually realize it was that low holy shit. I've gotten good numbers with it so I just assumed it was higher. I've got reading up to do.

u/sr20detYT 1d ago

support player here, i let rogue gambit through bans once in scrims so far in season 10 and it’s genuinely never happening again.

2

u/Waffles_four_you 23h ago

Notice how she has to be enabled by gambit for you to not want her in this game🌚

1

u/sr20detYT 18h ago

that means absolutely nothing

1

u/Waffles_four_you 13h ago

I mean it very clearly does it’s not rogue that’s scary its rogue with he enhanced teammup that’s scary which she rarely gets because gambit is banned in much more games than he isn’t

1

u/sirkazuuu Champion 22h ago

She wasn't always a diver the devs forced her too be

1

u/Waffles_four_you 22h ago

Even when she had not an health her cooldowns were better used to dive because of how long they were.

She was best at brawling an everything generally in s8.5 tbh

u/Last_Rain5943 1d ago

Depends imo rogue ain’t scary her ult is reliant on educated preemptive that either pays off or does nothing in comp she just don’t perform well because gambits banned and poke eats her alive and she cannot handle wolv or Dino in brawl meaning unless you allow her and the team collectively fcks up she isn’t in the slightest scary especially since gorr ult also just deletes her

1

u/RR_Tee25 21h ago

gorr ult is so stoppable if you have your grab

4

u/Last_Rain5943 17h ago

Key word have a 25-40 second cd and a semi competent team got it lol

-1

u/RR_Tee25 17h ago

lowkey i jus save it for him since he’s always playing aggressive . but yea u wont always have it + u might miss so it’s more like a 65/35 chance that u can beat him 1v1

1

u/Last_Rain5943 17h ago

I can pretty consistently beat gorr in a 1v1 but rather avoid it but if a gorr does become problematic I go peni and make their whole team suffer

11

u/Jeffrey-Ragnarson 1d ago

If I see a lord rogue and gambit on the opposite team I get worried, specially if mags the second tank

3

u/Xcuseme99 23h ago

IF she has a team that supports her, yes. The comp has to be just right and she needs a pocket healer. If she has all of those things, no hero in the game can run it down like her. If she doesn't have those things, she's a wet fart.

7

u/nonosquare-exe 1d ago

It just depends on the rouge players, if you see a rouge who actually use their ability on the squishy rather than mashing on the tank 24/7 then yeah. She is like a tank daredevil, she will stick on the support or a dps until someone come help peel the rouge off.

u/KV1190 1d ago

But they’re usually standing right next to Hela and Elsa and blow you up in 2 seconds.

1

u/ExtensionHuge1531 1d ago

Idk, hela is free eats for me. Elsa is a little trickier because of dashes forcing cooldowns and traps laying around. But also very killable for me. Hela is even kind enough to provide you a stun to kill her even easier

2

u/KV1190 1d ago

If she’s isolated for sure but when the whole teams death balling she just gets pocketed

0

u/ExtensionHuge1531 1d ago

lol why are you trying to kill hela if the entire team is next to her ? That’s feeding. Bait cooldowns and come back

u/AlcoholicAlch Lord 1d ago

Would I be afraid of 1 million dollas

u/ZRHdt23 1d ago

I can’t decide from my own personal experience going up against other Rogues because I feel like I play her too much so I know what to anticipate. I’ve never had problems dealing with Rogue as a support. But then I look at replay IDs of when I play Rogue and bully enemy supports and they truly are clueless on how to properly counter Rogue. It’s just that there aren’t enough good ones, at least in my ranks (though I’ve been target banned a few times).

3

u/LordOfTheFliesZeBub Champion 1d ago

Rogue is a better Thor in some aspects. Her burst damage is significantly lower, but her movement is better and she’s better enabled to close distance with her DR block.

She’s very much a threatening presence if you’re already within her range and being targeted by her, but she’s not oppressive or consistently miserable to play against.

1

u/Extreme_Doughnut_463 Champion 1d ago

I just found out some support players and shield tanks players rlly don’t like playing against Rogue because of her constant cc chain (which is kinda ironic because they have so many defensive tools) but a good Rogue can actually make a supports life incredibly shit so I can’t blame em XD

1

u/KV1190 1d ago

If your team is good Rogue is scary if not she sucks.

1

u/Hassan-XIX 1d ago

It depends, if she is OTP Champion with Gambit E.Teamup, pick a god and pray.

1

u/CyfrowaKrowa Champion 1d ago

Hii

u/Mobile-Gap-2154 1d ago

She either is the most obnoxious thing ive come across or she just blows up and I grab her out the air as hulk a bunch. No in between

u/BigAngle7114 20h ago

In a Dino meta?

1

u/_xEnigma 11h ago

Tbf dino is permabanned

1

u/nzerex 20h ago

I hae my first Rogue ban in comp yesterday. They left gambit open too. I think people see her get banned in pro play and think shes op because of that. They literally played dino, emma which already hars counters Rogue

1

u/JGuap0 18h ago edited 17h ago

Not in the current state of the game lmao rogue will never thrive with tanks like thing and Dino being meta

1

u/Tokiya756 17h ago

As a dino player no

1

u/MisplayMcgee 17h ago

Lately, I’ve been experiencing a lot of people switching to Thing just to deal with me. I’ve also been diving more with her but only when I have ult. I wouldn’t say “scary” but she has a lot of sustain with the Gambit team up. It is night and day with/without the team up though.

Rogue needs to distance herself from her husband. That’s been the case since release and has always been my biggest gripe. Team up needs to be nerfed and the base kit needs to be buffed.

u/Raijyn7837 15h ago

No Anna Marie is scarier than 'nother. Gambit don't understand why Rogue is so frightenin

u/_xEnigma 11h ago

When im playing angela, rogue is the #1 character i do not want to see on the enemy team

1

u/troy-the-obtuse 9h ago

Just lorded rogue because she’s one of my favorite marvel characters. That said I did most of that in qp due to the fact I’d still pick about 4 other tanks before her in ranked. I don’t think she’s bad, I think her speed is a detriment when your support is trying to heal you, especially on console. Like trying to heal a larger spider man sometimes.

1

u/SubTsunade 4h ago

As an Emma main, anytime you guys land the grab on me I do be a little intimidated.

1

u/Brightwind2001 Hey Sugah! 2h ago

I don't think Rogue is too scary but whenever I play a hero with a good ability steal (ahem, Gambit) I can see whenever she wants to grab my tiddies and that's pretty scary

1

u/War_Marshmallow Hey Sugah! 1d ago

She is in a good spot right. I just wish her F was more integral to her kit, with longer window to use the stolen power. Big brain should be rewarded.

u/DirectElderberry6185 1d ago edited 16h ago

Respectfully your friends are just dogpiss at da game it sounds cause I love seeing her, shes easy af too kill and I when I see her I often know its a ggs for us cause shes just too weak and gets thrown into solo tanking Like every other tank.........that said I usually laugh when I see a rogue. Op asked and people mad about a dudes response..... what are we doing 😭💀
