Starting point is 00:00:00 Shepard, promise me you'll tell them to subscribe for ad free content. Now, ladies and gentlemen, this is a specific song that starts off with, never would have made it. And as a Marvel fan, I felt like I would have still made it, you know what I'm saying? All right, my fault. I just didn't want to be too extreme. But basically, Marvel Rivals is currently on top. Ladies and gentlemen, it's one of the most played games on Steam currently,
Starting point is 00:00:23 more specifically the 13th most play game on Steam. As far as the concurrent player count, because this is going to matter for when I'm about to say the concurrent player count is currently a hundred and ten thousand players the 24 hour peak is 117,000 now it must have refreshed because of course I'm dropping my episode soon and I covered it and it was at 13 but right now it's currently at one two three four five six seven it's currently in the seventh slot now the reason why I'm even bringing this up is because more of a rival season the nine is completely overhauling the game, which is the first time in gaming history we've seen a popular live service take an immense overhaul like this. It's never been done before because
Starting point is 00:01:14 I literally researched have we ever seen a game at its peak. I'm talking about not peak, but a game in its prime in the live service realm completely overhaul the gameplay loop like this. And the first thing that popped up was of course, Fortnite OG, but some would say that was post decline. Now, I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just letting y'all know. And then of course, the other closest example would be Overwatch
Starting point is 00:01:39 2. So now you see what I'm saying. I believe more of a rivals, especially with season nine, is not, is showcasing that not only is it still hungry, but it as a live service, performing at the levels
Starting point is 00:01:55 that it is, is still making this massive overhaul in season 9, I mean, it's just very much commendable. You know what I'm saying? Just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on? And as far as the state of gaming, analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio because we're currently showcasing Jubilee, the new announced characters
Starting point is 00:02:14 gameplay and of course a lot of other season nine installments to come in the future. I believe it's coming out in two days. I'm recording this July 8, 2026 for the people in the future. So it will be officially coming out July 10th. Release times is 9 a.m. UTC. 2 a.m. PDT and 5 a.m. EDT. Now, of course, it wouldn't be notorious mass effect if we didn't get into the analytical data because when it comes to the notorious mass effect of Marvel rivals, safe to say, in totality, is one of the more successful games of all time, reaching 136 million.
Starting point is 00:02:46 And this is estimated for January 2025. So only God knows what is that right now. Steam alone generated $54 million. PS5 generated $27 million. Now, if you want to know what Xbox generated. I said if you want to know an Xbox generated. And we beat these folks. What do they do? We beat them.
Starting point is 00:03:05 We go forward. Anyways. So they didn't they didn't even account it for in the revenue. So with that being said, the main thing when it comes to the driving factors for this game
Starting point is 00:03:15 is of course micro transactions and things that nature as far as skins because this game is completely free. I'd say this game is completely free. That is one of the main selling points you could give to somebody who wants to play a quality,
Starting point is 00:03:27 a high quality live service game with respect for the wallet. Because we're seeing time and time again. I mean, the latest episode is coming out soon. As far as episode 162, no disc, higher prices, more firings is 2026 the year. Gamers finally take a stand. You know what I'm saying? Just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on?
Starting point is 00:03:51 So when it comes to this episode and the cover, hopefully y'all enjoyed the cover. Hold on me see. Hopefully y'all can enjoy the cover. I took myself away so you can see it. You know, it's just an advanced prompter, you know what I'm saying? If anybody needs an advanced prompter out there, you know what I'm saying? Your boy may be ready to be... All right, let me stop.
Starting point is 00:04:07 Let me stop begging. All right, so basically, when it comes to the episode, I think it's very much an indication of the time we're in as a gaming society. So for positive news like this, I mean, it's few and far between the months of June and July. So for gamers, I think this is a W that we should celebrate even, I'm telling you, even if it ends up not being the best gameplay loop, they still took a chance at the peak of his height
Starting point is 00:04:32 trying to please his connoisseurs. It's consumers. I said connoisseurs. Is that same thing, basically? So what's entailed in season nine is, of course, Jubilee. She's going to be the launch hero for season nine. She's going to be a strategy. Shout to all my strategies out there.
Starting point is 00:04:49 You know, shout to all my strategy, strategist's mains out there, you know what I'm saying? All right, Drew's scared. I just get it. I just did, bro. Anyways, so when they have Jubilee being the 52nd playable hero, yes, we are at 50 second. I know Tom Flies, doesn't it? I fly yesterday, this game just came out, and I was trying to kill people with Spider-Man,
Starting point is 00:05:07 and then I realized. And then I realized. So anyways, Jubilee's going to heal teammates, blind enemies, of course, firework-based energy attacks when it comes to the rest, because I don't want to get to the specifics just yet. The main thing, when it comes to season nine completely changing the Marvel rivals gameplay loop as we know it is because the team up system has been completely overhauled and at first glance you probably think it to yourself well what's the big deal they're always switching
Starting point is 00:05:36 up teammates no ladies they're always switching up team ups no ladies and gentlemen they're switching up and bringing back every single team up that ever existed in Marvel rivals come on now just look at the state of state i mean just switching it up what is going on i mean nobody's going to know what's going on july 10th i kid you not this game's going to be completely new they might as well just said Marvel rivals two before they released it because of course when it comes to the new update every hero I mean every single hero jubilee is the 50 second hero think about all the variables they're implementing in one season every single hero will have two team up ability load outs that players can swap between them and of course for my video people because I am live currently
Starting point is 00:06:18 shame this plug just going to my twitch kick or just my link tree in my bio all my links are there But basically, when it comes to Marvel rivals and the team ups, the main reason why this is such a big deal is because every single hero having two team up ability loadouts with 52 characters already in the roster, the variables. You know, whenever Dr. Strange, I got to get on my nerd tip, I told you I'm a huge Marvel nerd. In Infinity War, when Dr. Strange was sitting on that rock or whatever while Star Lord and Iron Man was arguing, and he was, looking through all the possibilities. Net ease had to have that same exact moment when implementing this patch, because I kid you not, there's going to be too many variables to account for. Now, I'm not saying that the game is going to be broken.
Starting point is 00:07:06 I'm just saying there's no way. There's just simply no way that one of these O.P teamups did not just slip through the cracks and just completely break the game. Now, I'm not advocating for that. I'm just saying there's 52 heroes, ladies and gentlemen. And every single hero has two team up abilities, regardless. regardless if the other person's in the game or not, because if they're not in the game, it's still active. But when the other teammate is the other teammate that's a part of the team up, if they're also in the game, it will add stronger effects and extra abilities.
Starting point is 00:07:38 So it comes to a point where season nine is technically a whole new game. Instead of going with Marvel Rivals 2, they just went with a complete overhaul and called it season 9. They just called it today. They was like, do we want to go at Marvel 2? Or do we just want to switch it up and just tell them it's the installment of the new season? You're welcome. So we're going to see how this plays out July 10th, a lot more to get into because, of course, when you look at Black Widow, yes, ladies and gentlemen, I know you probably saying to yourself. I know that ain't who I think it is.
Starting point is 00:08:13 You're probably saying to yourself. I know that ain't who I think it is. Like I'm trying to win 50,000, you know what I'm saying? All right, my fault. I think it was 40,000. But anyways, basically, when it comes to winning multiple thousands, Black Widow may be playable in the tournaments as she got a complete overhaul.
Starting point is 00:08:31 I believe if I have the, can I have these videos up to just showcase things in the season 9, but of course we're going to look at other videos specifically. Let me see, Black Widow rework. I want to show you all because I can just tell you, but if you don't play Marvel rivals, you may not exactly know what you're looking at. So I think the main thing is going to Marvel rivals, because they actually did a pretty good job on covering her rework. Because, you know, for the most part, it was so much change.
Starting point is 00:08:57 They didn't get to touch on everything, but they definitely wanted to touch on Black Widow. So with that being said, the main thing that they was touching on with Black Widow was her complete ability set now that she was reworked. So here it is right here. So I'm not, hold up. I swear, I swear, give me one second. I swear I'm 26 going on 80. I got to give me some grace, no cap.
Starting point is 00:09:19 I think that's better. All right, let's try this one. All right, let me see. This new health type massively buffed. And I already watched this, so already know exactly where it is. And, of course, I can just scroll through it. I think it's... It's towards the beginning, I believe.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Yeah, here we go. Once again, for my audio-only podcast listeners, Annalated Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. So more players can pick her up. Secondly, we've transformed her ultimate ability into her ADS sniper mode, which will last for a set duration or until a certain number of bullets are fired. Again, prioritizing the counterplay experience, we still haven't given her the ability to one-shot on critical hits. However, as power compensation, we've drastically increased the heatbox wires of her sniper bullets,
Starting point is 00:10:18 and they can now pierce straight through enemies. Crucially, non-critical hits will also do incredibly high damage, completely shedding any damage fall off a range. The ultimate goal here is to preserve that pure sniving experience for players who love it, while using the framework of an ultimate to grant it the immense devastating power it deserves. Finally, With retained Black Widow sprined and Super Jump, entirely removing their snap-inine restrictions. Her spinning kick will also stay, and we've introduced a grand new ability.
Starting point is 00:10:59 When Black Widow is airborne, she can launch toward the target location and slam her widow spied gauntlet down during AOE damage to nearby enemies. I know that ain't who I think it is. Now that ease. Y'all know what y'all doing with Black Widow y'all saw that y'all cooked with her summer skin and y'all gave her rework expeditiously y'all ain't slipped her widow's spied guntlets down during ae damage to nearby enemies our vision here is to make Black Widow's close quarters melee combos flow much more seamlessly handing her handing her some serious aggressive burst come now the reason why we're focusing on this is because if you don't know Black Widow was horrendously the worst player and more of her rival so I say horrendously that's a little exaggeration. You could be good with her if you was like a marksman, right? So for the most part, she's kind of like, I'm not going to say Spider-Man. I'm not going to go that
Starting point is 00:11:54 far. But you had to do a lot with her to do well. You could do well if you was like fantastic at certain things with Black Widow. But it was basically high-scale with low reward. Then, you know, other characters give you low-skill high rewards. So why I play Black Widow, which is why this rework happened in the first place. We hope these adjustments will make Black Widow a highly competitive flanking dearest. You can experience all the details for yourself once the update goes live. Okay, and then at the beginning I did miss a little bit, so I did want to talk about her actual. Here's a brief overview of our approach to these adjustments.
Starting point is 00:12:35 First, we've removed the ADS sniper mode from her standard state and increased the fire rate of her primary attack. At the same time, we've moved the charge electrical plasma blast from her original Ultimate to be normally available, hitting enemies with this due damage and applies a slow effect. With this adjustment, on one hand, we no longer need to stress over the one-shot K-O issue of a normal sniper. Now I saw the main Black Widow main getting upset over this because apparently she was saying it takes away the skill from Black Widow. On the other hand, we hope this...
Starting point is 00:13:19 And I'm not going to lie to you. I'm going to refer to her because obviously she has more hours into the character that I do. And if you're making a character easier with higher damage, I can see what she's saying. Black Widow more stable, consistent DPS, raising her base damage floor so more players can pick her up. Key words, more players can pick her up. Not our, you know, not players pick her up. because there was certain people that was like nasty with black widow just like any character that you know you get super pro level at right but for the most part black widow to the average player on marvels was just straight trash it wasn't a lot of value you could get out of her if your skill level was at a certain point secondly we've transformed her all right so then it goes back into the ultimate so that is why i wanted to start off with that because when it comes to marvel rival specifically i believe that they had no reason to make this overhaul, which I think is even more commendable because taking risk, not just for any reason, right?
Starting point is 00:14:21 Taking risk because you see that people are complaining about certain teamers being taken out of the game, not in the game, things of that nature. So they basically did the LeBron. They was like, hold up now. Here's one more. Here's another one. Actually, everybody got two team up abilities and the world went crazy with a gamer world. So some other things I wanted to talk about Assad.
Starting point is 00:14:43 from the Black Widow rework because there's still a lot to get into is when it comes to the battle pass it's going to be more Egyptian centered as far as the location there's going to be 10 unlockable costumes and of course there's always a premium battle pass I believe I had an image yeah here so this is the whole image of season nine right here so basically when it comes to season nine and it's following the story right the story is following apocalypse downfall a mysterious string of that spreads across thieves, players investigate using faith harvesting engine. The season draws inspiration from age of apocalypse
Starting point is 00:15:21 and X-Men mythology. Now, I don't know if y'all have been paying attention. Marvel been glazing the X-Men to the moon and back. Now, I'm not saying there's nothing wrong with it because X-Men 97 is phenomenal. But all I'm saying is, when it comes to X-Men and all this hype for Apocalypse, like, Denny, he just...
Starting point is 00:15:41 I ain't going to spoil it. But anyways, When it comes to X-Men specifically, I'm not mad at the X-Men glaze because it needed to happen at some point. I think it took too long. When it comes to certain movies that may be coming out at the end of this month and their propaganda for X-Men, I'm not a fan of that. But when it comes to, in general, focusing on the show, focusing on the iconic team-up of X-Men, I'm all for it. So I'm not mad at Jubilee being in there. I saw people upset like, oh, we haven't had an Avengers.
Starting point is 00:16:12 since the game launch. I'm like, bro, what other Avenger do y'all want? You know what I'm saying? It's like, what other Avengers would y'all want in the game? I'm honestly trying to rack my brain as a Marvel nerd. We have every single, now I'm not going to say every single, but all of the big, like what y'all want Nick Fury? Like what type of Avenger do y'all want? You guys. See, that's the problem. I think them focusing on X-Men is beyond logical. And if they are, if they are going to focus on Avengers, it needs to be the villains. I need Thanos. I need Green Gobble. I need, he's not an Avengers villain, but you get the point. I need Thanos.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Basically, I need a villain arc if they're going to focus on something else. All the Avengers are in the game. We have Iron Man. We have Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Spider-Man. We even have Hawkingh, Black Widow. Who has for them? Like, I don't understand. So anyways, what that being said?
Starting point is 00:17:01 Season 9, to put in layman's terms, new hero is Jubilee, and so I'm going to take the season of the roadmap away. So, you know, take a screenshot or whatever. Hold on. I'm going to take myself away. There we go. All right, now back now. So basically, if you didn't take a screenshot, hey, guess what? I gave you time to do it. So anyways, when it comes to the lamest terms of season nine, we have a new hero, which is Jubilee. We have midseason hero, which is the hood. I didn't talk about that because, of course, they didn't show him at all, which he's going to be coming at the middle part of season. So there's no need to focus on him right now. The complete team up system is overhauled. That's the biggest factor in this entire season. Oh, no, in this entire update. Not the Black Widow redesign. I mean, that's cool or whatever. But the team-up system overhaul where every single,
Starting point is 00:17:47 is that cloaking dagger? I don't know. Hold on. Let me focus up. That's my fault. When it comes to the actual team-up abilities, I believe this is going to basically make it more of a rivals two. And the game, as we know it, is going to end July 10th.
Starting point is 00:18:04 I'm not trying to be, you know, I'm not trying to be dramatic, but it's essentially going to be a completely different game. Other than that, we have the Regina. shield mechanic now I don't know if I actually had video of that in how that worked I don't think I did let me see give me a one second to shield mechanic I don't know if I saw a video of showcasing how that works oh here we go shout shout to this person I think I think this is the actual one okay hopefully it is if it's not then I'm really 261 or 80 I think
Starting point is 00:18:44 This is the right one. Yeah, here we go. This new regenerative shield mechanic, which makes up half of your dive heroes health pool. Now, this actually restores its health automatically when you're inactive. We wanted to know how long you actually need to wait before the regenerative shields actually kick in. And it turns out after testing with a couple of different heroes, you need to wait for five whole seconds without taking any damage whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:19:10 And that recovers that green portion in your health bar. So if you are diving an enemy backline, this could be absolutely clutch in keeping your life or allowing you to escape. Now, supports don't have anything like this. Just hating, bro, for no reason. You know what I'm saying? Just hating on strategists for no reason. Strategist's main will never get the respect they deserve. That's whatever.
Starting point is 00:19:30 ...moment in this game because none of them are actually dive characters and they can also heal. Come on now, tell that to my Deadpool, you know what I'm saying? No, I'm just saying. They don't understand, bro. My Deadpool will be diving whenever I get to... All right, anyways. themselves. So Marvel rivals just... Now, this flight, there's really no healer that's a diver.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Besides, who could be a diver? Honestly, White Fox. Isn't that funny when he talked about diving here at White Fox? I mean, as a strategist's main, I would not recommend diving in any scenario. But when it comes to actual divers, I think Deadpool would be the one because he's usually a... Like, if you want to go through healers, anyways, y'all get the point. So when it comes to the regenerative health, that's how it works. But the other thing, I want to...
Starting point is 00:20:14 want to get into is the Egyptian theme map and storyline. If you notice, X-Men 97 is currently having an Egyptian theme and, of course, Apocalypse. So it's very, it's, it's kind of scary how on the same page the X-Men 97 show is with Marvel rivals. Now, of course, I think Marvel rivals would be easier to maneuver what they're doing to fit X-Men instead of compared to vice versa. I think the X-Men show would be harder to maneuver what they're doing to fit Marvel rivals because just an animated show in general I think there's a lot more moving
Starting point is 00:20:49 parts as far as quality levels and matching Marvel rivals in it's for them for Marvel rivals to do it because who cares I mean I'm not going to say who cares about the Marvel rival story but I mean you know it's not really that deep compared to X-Men 97 so anyways with that being said and as an invincible fan
Starting point is 00:21:05 you know I see the discourse I just don't like it man you know I'm I'm a huge Marvel fan. I just don't like it, man. But I don't like the discourse between the Marvel, the Invincible fans and the X-Men fans. Can we all just get along? Like, come on, you guys.
Starting point is 00:21:19 You guys. Come on, man. We can all get along. Anyways, that's basically it for that. The main thing I want to get into, of course, is the team-ups. So I do have a video for that. And when it comes to that video, I'm trying to see, because I know what it looks like.
Starting point is 00:21:35 I don't think I had it in the My Little Q thing. Yeah, I didn't. Okay. So, and also shout out to all these creators. sure to let me go practice why preach right quick you know what i'm saying you know what i'm saying you know i'm saying hold on now they're doing some lord they're doing the lord's work right here boy i kid you not hold on yeah i like this you know i am on stream so it may be slow a little bit okay there we go yeah you know you got practice what you preach you know shout to all these creators man they're doing
Starting point is 00:22:01 they're doing the guys you know they're doing guys work right here boy oh this is the one i was going to look at oh okay wow i do have it here all right so anyways um when it comes of this particular video. I did want to hop into Emma. So with that being said, let's see her abilities right quick. Because you know I'm an Emma main, technically. I mean, I know I say I'm a strategist main,
Starting point is 00:22:26 but that's because I like playing all the strategists. As far as tanks, I'm more of an Emma main. But I like playing a lot of different characters. Y'all can see in a second. And with that being said, where is Emma? Oh, she's right here. All right, cool. So it's 23 minutes of all the team of. She showcases in
Starting point is 00:22:46 as you can tell by the title, all 100 plus new team-ups and Marvel rival season 9. Ladies and gentlemen, when I tell you this is going to be a completely different game, I'm not joking. You know what I'm saying? Come on now. Come on now.
Starting point is 00:23:00 That's, hey, that's some... Yeah, I was thinking it. Anyways, let's he gone. Now, I'm not going to lie to you. I wonder, because I use your shield all the time to block off my, like the people I'm shooting from the Hillers. I wonder if I do that and then put my shield back there, like that would be like a double.
Starting point is 00:23:26 double layered of just now my whole team could just go crazy on them without any heels. We'll have to see how that works whenever it comes out. I will be playing this game whenever the, well, obviously, you know what I'm saying? I'm not, you know, don't make me get back on my, you know what I'm saying? I will be playing this game once I come back, you know what I'm saying? I'm not saying where I'm going to be. You know what I'm saying? Because it's really none of your business.
Starting point is 00:23:47 You know what I'm saying? I'm not going to tell you all I'm going to tell you all I'm going to be? Like, why will I tell you why I'm going to be? You know what I'm saying? That don't make too much sense. You feel me? Like, come on now. y'all pay attention bro we're trying to get into marvel rivals right now y'all tripping bro come on man these
Starting point is 00:24:01 these people man come on man anyways hold up she's healing from that i don't know what that does trying to see what that does does she move faster okay i see her like health bar getting covered that means she can't be moved that it's like that means she can't be moved right so basically i'm trying to understand what the rest of of it is because usually with the arrow's going up maybe that means she's faster now maybe she's doing my damage i don't know um another one i wanted to look at i'm just going to my top three favorite characters once again this video is phenomenal as far as seeing all the team ups that's going to be happening in july 10 but for me specifically
Starting point is 00:24:55 i want to go to my other favorite character in the game So, So, So Emma has a team up with Luna Snow And Cloak has a I'm gonna have to be toxic Gail on the mic and be like, hey, bro Hey man, one of y'all
Starting point is 00:25:15 pick up Luna Y'all either y'all pick up Luna or I'm throwing. Now, I'll just plain, y'all ain't hear that for me. All right, what's the next one? Oh, what in the Iceman? Is it okay, I got my dope on me? That's what she did in the last one.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Oh, that's what Luna there, right? Videos. Okay, so cloak and dagger lunas, no, okay. So that's without her. Okay, and this is with her. Are you telling me she freezes herself and heals other people? Man, what is happening right now? No, that's insane.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Imagine throwing a bubble down and then going into ice. Like, if an old is happening? That's insane, bro. Okay, same thing. I was thinking maybe, like, give them a damage boost, but I guess not. Okay, so that one, I'm not going to lie to you. I don't know how effective that would be. Like, technically, that's like a Doctor Strange, like, shield, but they're shooting through it.
Starting point is 00:26:35 So it's like damage resistant for your allies. But, you know, I'd just rather just heal them, honestly. Or I rather just use my healing burst. But I don't know. Maybe I'm tripping. It is cool that the hood is teaming up with cloak. I mean, somebody got to say, bro. The black man teaming up with the hood, bro.
Starting point is 00:27:02 How on the nose? Oh, my fault. They, you know, it ain't sponsored. You know, I get to say what I want. All right, let me see. A gift from Loki. Okay, I also like Loki, but that's not like, I don't want to focus on him. Okay, so I like Cloak, Emma.
Starting point is 00:27:18 What's my third? I think my third is usually, I don't think I have a third. I ain't okay. I play so many different characters. I love this game so much. I kid you not. I do think this game is one of the greatest games in the modern generation. Let me see.
Starting point is 00:27:33 I will go to some. Spider-Man, but I don't want to get my hopes up, man. Hulk looks very O-P. It seems like he has the best abilities. And then Phoenix seems like she would be the best to team up with because Venom, that's what it was. I wanted to look at Venom. I was thinking about learning a Venom.
Starting point is 00:27:51 I was thinking about learning a Venom. I was thinking about learning Penny. But once I saw Venom with the Phoenix, boy, watch this right here. Hold on. Let me see if I can find this way. Where's my boy, Venom at? Where my boy Eddie at? Eddie.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Who is that he at? Am I trapped? I'm definitely 26 going on AD because this is definitely Vanguard so I can't find Venom Oh, he's right here. All right cool. This is the move I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:28:13 This move is going to be insane, boy. No, actually that moves insane. We're going to get to... It's just so much like, you probably don't even know what you're seeing right now. That's how crazy this game's going to... July 10th, bro, what are we looking at right now? What is this?
Starting point is 00:28:30 That man's floating in mid-air with a whole bubble around him. This ain't SpongeBob. All right, my fault. Let's keep going. I was just throwing off. All right, so this is one of my, I think this is the most interesting ability, in my opinion.
Starting point is 00:28:46 No, not that one. I'm tripping. Yeah, this one. Okay. So, I'm not going to live. Somebody goes to Phoenix and the games I'm about to play shortly. I'm definitely going Venom. Because I want to do this.
Starting point is 00:29:01 I want to slap a person with tentacles. I want to wear out. This is all I was asking for when everybody was. It's like, oh, man, why you, because I had a whole clip, which, you know, shout out to people who follow my clip channel. But I had a whole clip talking about, oh, I want symbiote Spider-Man as a separate character in the game. I mean, Deadpool got three slots. Spider-Man can't get two? You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:29:20 Like what we're doing? So I'm thinking if Simbiot Spider-Man had his own slot, he could be a tank and he could be fighting like this. This is exactly how I thought Simbo's Spider-Man was going to fight. AEOEs galore, just slapping people left and right. Kind of like, what's that one game? it's not it's not it's your time shadow dimensions just like shadow dimensions the way that the symbioteer spider man was fighting on the ground like he could be doing all that marvels imagine have a character like that but they basically just gave it to vend him so um yeah i don't think my
Starting point is 00:29:49 uh idea is coming into uh fruition because they basically gave the move i wanted for symbio spider man to venom this move right here that's i i just knew symbio spider man was gonna be boxing just like this the whole time all right so let's say one more time i mean imagine just just just lapping people left and right. Like, oh my gosh, I need heels. I need heels. All three of them need heels, boy, you know what I mean? Yeah, that's a problem right there.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Anyways, as you can tell, I could probably stay on this Marvel rival season nine update for the longest. We've been going for 30 minutes just showing how much I very much not only enjoy just Marvel in general, but I enjoy the update that NetE's had put forth because, of course, we already went over the stats, talked about how NetEase, I'm not saying they're at a point. place where they have to implement these changes, but they're showcasing what it looks like to be on top and still trying to please your consumer with pro consumer tactics. Because this is a free game, once again. And the reason why I keep emphasizing that this is a free game is because in the
Starting point is 00:31:00 span of two months, ladies and gentlemen, there's a reason why the game recover is like that for the episode 162 that's coming out soon. For the span of two months, we've had out of day, out of hardware priced above $1,000 as far as the steam machine, we've had Xbox consoles prices increasing when they only have 30 to 40% of the entire console market share, right? So imagine losing the console rates by that much and still increasing your prices. And then we have Xbox laying out 3,200 people, right? Then we have PlayStation not only saying that they're going to raise the price to PS Plus, but they said to you know what with physicals. Ladies and gentlemen, they're ending physical production in January
Starting point is 00:31:43 2028. Shepard. Yeah, I kid you not. No, that's a real step, man. What is going on? So gamers can rejoice on a company at its prime having pro-consumer tactics
Starting point is 00:31:54 because I'm not going to say what would happen if they put a price point on Marvel rivals, but it would be the same thing that's going on on GTA right now. You know how everybody was acting like they weren't going to buy GTA the $100 edition because, oh, they're locking out everything
Starting point is 00:32:10 in the game um exhibit a you know what i mean we ain't got messing around man we even got messing around and we're not going to xbox i don't know why i pulled up the xbox charts who care about you know somebody from xbox listening i care about you know i care about xbox too i could you not um let me see so yeah here we go ladies and gentlemen i want you to pay attention to the price point pay attention to the top three games on playstation all right no that's not it here we go yeah Pay attention to the price point. Play attention to the top three games on PlayStation. I ain't going to say it again because I'm just going to let this talk, man.
Starting point is 00:32:46 You know, it's just objective facts. You know what I'm saying? I ain't really trying. I ain't really trying to enlighten you on objective facts. And, you know, you do of it what you will. You know what I'm saying? I'm just trying to make a point. So basically, gamers have no backbone.
Starting point is 00:32:57 Somehow, college footballs $99, right? Best selling product on PlayStation. Grand Theft Auto 6, $99, third bestselling product on PlayStation. Now, I know it says top 10 games in your country. But, ladies and gentlemen, I live in the United States of America. So back to what I was saying. $100 for a GTA-6 game that hasn't even shown any gameplay loop, any game play mechanics. And it's $100 and it doesn't come out to November.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Third bestselling game on PlayStation, right? And everybody's like, oh, that's just rock star. Exhibit B. College football, $27, $100 is the best-selling product on PlayStation. You know when it comes to gamers, I just don't think they have a backbone. I kid you not. Just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on?
Starting point is 00:33:43 So once again, the reason why I was spending so much time on this free update with free two abilities implemented for every single hero with free DOC character that's currently one of the most popular characters in the hit series as far as X-Men 97, not only that, but it will continue to be free. They're not putting a price point on at any point at any time. soon right and it's currently what the one two three four five six seven the seventh most play game on steam only god knows how good he's doing on console i don't think it's in the top ten on console
Starting point is 00:34:18 oh i'm tripping it's literally right there it has number six most play game on playstation and let's look at xbox actually i guess i'll do it hold on me a second i guess we respect xbox right quick um and then when you look at xbox yeah marvrival's not on there weren't the world where aren't they playing boy i could i could you not hell let loose is the tenth most play game on xbox what those what those what those people be playing. Anyways, so basically, the reason I say that is because covering the gaming and music IPs that notoriously affect the masses, I think Marvel rivals net ease is currently having one of the best years alongside Capcom and somebody has to say it. So if you didn't get anything out of this entire breakdown of Marvel season nine, just know that new hero is Jubilee
Starting point is 00:35:05 from X-Man, mid-season hero is the hood. If you don't know who the hood is, watch Iron Heart. it'll maybe give you an indication i think it's the hood from the comics also read a lot of that marvel comics so if it's the hood from the comics it would be a lot vastly different um complete team up system overhaul black widow redesign regenerative shield mechanic which already showed new battle pass with 10 costumes egyptian theme map and storyline significant balance changes expected to dramatically shift the games meta making many many unknown variables is creating a lot of unknown variables that we will be able to see in July 10th. And I'm telling you right now, if Marvel Rivals pulls off what I think is about to pull off,
Starting point is 00:35:57 this may be the greatest game, one of the greatest games of all time. Because I think it's already one of the greatest games of the modern generation. This may be one of the greatest games of all time. So that be said, click my link to show you in my bio to follow me on my social medias. and of course for the people of at spotify comment down below what you would like to see implementing a marvel rivals next and of course what was your favorite team up that you've seen so far for the upcoming july 10th marvel season 9 update
