Dive Requires Game Sense More Than Mechanics

  I wish more Rivals creators created content like this. Always love these videos because I love learning more than mechanics and combos. I love learning how things work, how I should be thinking and what a success indicator is. I apply this guy&apos;s principles consistently when I play and constantly gauge my performance based on how many deaths I had, and not how many kills I had. &quot;Prioritise staying alive&quot; is a standard mantra for me. <br><br>How he describes everything is why I say that tank is probably the most selfless role in Marvel Rivals and that&apos;s probably why it resonates with me so much.

  Beyond diving this video was also really useful to analyze the mistakes the opposition was making. No one really swapped to any sort of anti-dive options (Namor, Bucky, Rogue, Emma) except for Elsa. Also they constantly walked down main and gave you and BP easy set ups. If they had taken different routes, they could have either discovered BP&apos;s hiding place, forced him to retreat and set-up again or even get a fight closer to or on point since they would&apos;ve been able to walk up faster.

  This also works in reverse. If your enemy team is dive, you can prevent them from setting up by coordinating burst damage to force a pick (usually on a tank or a dps, sometimes on a support) in the time the dive is rotating/waiting - this eliminates the dive window entirely by capitalizing on the temporary disadvantage of having 1-2 players hiding and not directly contributing any pressure, but requires you to either notice or predict when the enemy is preparing to dive.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYYY7lFSPro&amp;t=526">8:46</a> i like that you mention this. Cos a lot of times I&apos;ll just have tanks just running down main not checking the most common places the divers are.

  I think my problem is information saturation. Sometimes there can be so much happening on the screen at once that it becomes difficult to tell when which teammate is doing what vs which enemy is doing what. It may come with time but that&apos;s my next growth point, digesting/distinguishing different points of information.

  I see too many divers just run straight at the entire team by themselves all the time
