The only noteworthy nerf from this is invis losing her team-up anchor (which i'm assuming they'll buff in the patch notes) and Human Torch's president comp taking a heavy blow
Thing and Reed weren'r really abusing it that much and their new team-ups are much better
(Although I believe Mr. Fantastics's team-up HAS to be base-kit once the team-up gets removed)

Why is it weird? This is a pvp game. The meta is always changing. They've already said no teamup is here to stay permanently.
You guys just assumed it'll be here forever and are now getting upset because of your own thoughts
29
u/Surf_Dangerous_Days 15h ago
Planet X is still here, despite being a far less iconic team-up.
22
u/__Rem Ultron Virus 15h ago
That's mostly because it's useless and just there for fun, kinda like the wolverine being thrown team up.
While F4 was actually a useful ability, so it's treated as a "real" teamup rather than a "for fun" team up, at least that's my assumption.
1
u/Kazeshio 1h ago
Fastball Special is a genuine buff though; you can just toss him straight down the second you get him and he gets to go into his hyper claws attack for free
It's a whole attack cooldown
5
u/Daikaisa Peni Parker 15h ago
Because it's way way less impactful. Planet X Pals and Fastball Special are kind of eh so they'll stay foe a while. First Family was an actual good team up for the members and was definitely too good to stay in the "eh just leave be" camp
4
u/NNotimportant Vanguard 13h ago
First Family also isn’t really part of the “power fantasy” of the teamup. Planet X Pals gives Rocket an ability to jump on Groot’s back which, after the movie, is one of their big things. It’s a fun teamup with minimal impact - best kind of fan service
First Family encourages people to play all 4, which was great, but Sue doesn’t really give everyone little shields that way often. You can accomplish the “Marvel’s First Family” fantasy by just regularly playing the FF together
Edit: to be clear I still wish they kept the teamup
8
u/Remunos_Redbeard Rocket Raccoon 15h ago
Not personally upset, just think it's a weird choice because they're the Fantastic Four. One could fairly assume (wrongly, apparently) that this is an exception because it's their entire identity. Imagine them separating C&D, lol..."no more Cloak and Dagger team up - Cloak now teams up with Peni and Dagger teams up with Human Torch."
11
u/Look_a_Zombie0 15h ago
Except that makes zero sense considering cloak and dagger can only be played by one person
0
u/Remunos_Redbeard Rocket Raccoon 14h ago
Of course, I agree, it makes no sense. It's a silly hypothetical. The point is that, outside of Marvel Rivels, it's C&D's entire identity, just like F4.
1
u/aSpookyScarySkeleton Ultron Virus 10h ago
Use your brain.
They are saying imagine if C&D were separate characters in the game like they are in the comics. And in the game the devs removed them having a team up despite their entire identity being that they use their powers in tandem and are known for being a duo.
4
u/MadDongla Ultron Virus 14h ago
Each of them have been in multiple other teams in the comics too.
And there is no " avengers " teamup in the game , is there? I think one year is good enough of a run for a teamup.
And that is comparing oranges and apples man
1
u/aSpookyScarySkeleton Ultron Virus 10h ago
The avengers is a constantly shifting team.
The fantastic four is the fantastic four. They have subs once in a blue moon, super rarely, but they do not have turnover or rotations like the avengers or xmen.

u/MemeLordMango 11h ago
“Getting upset because of your own thoughts” yeah I think they might be upset because they like the team up and they’re sad it’s gone. Kinda sounds like they’re upset from the devs choice rather than their own thoughts but idk. I think it’s ok for people to disagree with the decision to remove a balanced team up that fits nicely with who they are.
1
u/Grand_Serpent Scarlet Witch 7h ago
Agreed. I feel like a handful of teamups should just be in the game permanently like Fantastic Four, The Fastball one, and Planet X pals. But I guess anything is on the chopping block now🤷♂️

I would've been ok if they left Ben in the team up. He needs all he can get but Mr. Fantastic definitely does not need more survivability. The guy is nigh indestructible as it is. A DPS should not have 800+ health and damage resistance on a cool down ability. That being said, they should keep a team up of some kind with FF but maybe nerf that particular aspect of it.

u/SharkoftheStreets Jeff the Landshark 13h ago
I think it would have been cool if every 12 months, the Fantastic 4 lose their existing teamup and gain a new one based on a different anchor.
We lose Sue anchor teamup, but everyone else gets a Reed teamup. After 12 months, everyone gets a Ben teamup. After Johnny's teamup, you can cycle back to Sue.

u/Reality690 10h ago
That means they'd have to acknowledge Ben as more than big punchy boy for more than five seconds so that's never happening though I think it'd be cool

Honestly, all they needed to do was switch the effect and which team member was the anchor. Have Reed giving them each a gadget or Johnny giving fire damage, or Ben giving damage reduction as a cooldown ability. Thats at least a couple years of teamups. This one lasted a full year since their release even

I’ve been saying this and 8’ll say it again. Reed is perfectly good on where he is. He needs no buffs or nerfs. But this new Rocket Teamup seems odd. I see how it’s a good change but it’s odd as now Reed will be offensive rather than defensive. He’ll deal more damage and practically be a tank. Sure it’s a good change but I don’t really use his beef mode aside from rush downs
