Episode 4: Your DPS Isn’t Throwing… The Devs Are

Cyclops has officially survived his first full week in Marvel Rivals, and the community is already doing what it does best: arguing about balance, blaming teammates, and demanding nerfs.

This week, GoatDawg and Kosa break down their updated impressions of Cyclops, discuss the latest buffs and nerfs, and dive into another Locker Room Meltdown inspired by the never-ending chaos of solo queue.

But the real fight begins in the Main Event.

For months, players have pointed fingers at DPS mains whenever a match goes sideways. Bad team comp? DPS. Lost objective? DPS. Support getting dove? Somehow still DPS.

But what if we’ve been blaming the wrong people?

What if the real reason Marvel Rivals feels frustrating isn’t the players at all… but the decisions being made behind the scenes?

From hero balance and game design philosophy to the unintended consequences of constant patches, GoatDawg and Kosa take a hard look at why the game feels the way it does—and whether the developers deserve more of the blame than the community wants to admit.

Whether you’re a tank, support, DPS, or just someone trying to survive ranked without losing your sanity, this episode is for you.
