Summary
- A Marvel Rivals player attempting a pacifist run as Rocket Raccoon accidently dealt damage to an enemy just before reaching Celestial in ranked play.
- Rocket Raccoon is a popular Strategist in the game, utilizing heals and buffs.
One Marvel Rivals fan has revealed that their pacifist run as Rocket Raccoon has ended, as they accidentally dealt 22 damage to an enemy just before reaching Celestial in ranked play. Rocket Raccoon is a Strategist in Marvel Rivals, which allows him to support his teammates through healing and buffs. While the hero's primary attack does harm foes, it's possible to forgo dealing damage to focus on healing instead.
A Season 1 Marvel Rivals player who goes by NoDmgRocket managed to reach Grandmaster in ranked play without dealing a single point of damage. In order to prove their accomplishment, the gamer posted screenshots of their stats to Reddit, showcasing an impressive 2.9 million points of healing over the course of 108 matches. Fellow players shared mixed feelings about the pacifist run, with some praising NoDmgRocket's dedication, while others criticized them for not helping their team by eliminating enemies during a match. Regardless of other people's comments, the gamer intended to continue climbing the ladder of ranked play without dealing any damage.
Marvel Rivals Players Want a Major Change Made to Magneto
Marvel Rivals players take to social media to discuss Magneto's ability kit and suggest making a major change to the popular Vanguard.
In a recent post on YouTube, NoDmgRocket shared the moment where everything went wrong. From what can be seen, the player starts by going about their usual business as Rocket Raccoon in Marvel Rivals. During gameplay, they begin attacking one of Loki's clones, which technically doesn't count as causing damage during a match. However, while in the middle of destroying the clone, a Cloak and Dagger player jumps out in front of NoDmgRocket, resulting in 22 dealt damage. When attaching a comment to the video, the player simply wrote "Rocket's devastated."
Marvel Rivals’ NoDmgRocket Accidentally Attacks a Player During No Damage Run
Some people seemed to take pleasure in the moment, claiming that the gamer was playing the Marvel Rivals Strategist incorrectly from the start. Others were more supportive, sharing in the player's disappointment and coming up with ways they could move forward. One person suggested the Rocket main change their name to 22DmgRocket as a way of owning the moment. Another questioned why the player hadn't disabled their attack button. However, it was pointed out that Rocket's attacks can still be used to destroy Ankhs, clones, and other hazards without dealing any damage to enemies. As of writing, NoDmgRocket hasn't commented on what they'll do next.
Many gamers noted that such a pacifist streak would be nearly impossible with most Strategists in Marvel Rivals. Rocket Raccoon has a unique set of abilities that allow him to focus solely on support. For instance, his ultimate amplifies the attacks of nearby teammates, which means he can assist heroes while standing back and healing them. The hero also has an ability that allows him to revive a fallen teammate. Even when faced with enemy players, Rocket has a number of ways to escape by climbing up walls or dashing away. With so much attention surrounding the player's no damage run, many gamers are wondering what NoDmgRocket will do next.
