United Statesa month ago - Hey Friends (or Rivals)!
I joined Marvel Rivals in season 2.5 (the best season in my opinion with cosmetics, and characters), playing Steve Rogers “Captain America” and Johnny Storm “Human Torch”, but I have been listening to you guys since about season 1.5 and I really appreciate your guy’s take on Rivals. I recently got Johnny to Lord after Rogers, and have almost every character to Captain, a goal I have had since I started to be the ultimate flex character.
I have two questions for you. One is for Nick specificall... more

I’m rewriting another review (sorry guys) even though I don’t play Rivals much anymore (I’ve been HOOKED on Crimson Desert) I still listen to every episode you guys put out, I love joining for armed and dangerous when I can but unfortunately I have slowly been phasing out of rivals and moving on to other games, maybe my love for the game will flame back up but as of right now it’s steadily dying out. You guys keep me updated through the podcast though and I love listening to the episodes, keep i... more
