Most Annoying Offensive Mechanics?

I was wondering if any offensive aspects of the game ever annoy you. Ill start with some of my own peeves:

1) Getting a dance off after venompools SP2

2) Making the AI not accidentally back into kravens trap without a heavy.

3) And on the occasional bad day Ill have 3 bleeds with AA and simply be unable to get that poison on them much to my blocks detriment.

What are y’alls gripes?

when i think the ai is dashing in so i throw a sp1 or sp2 with herc to get the intercept but they start blocking. then when my special is done, they throw a 5 hit combo and i'm dead

Dashing into to hitting the defenders block which has worked forever, but now they special intercept you every time.

How the AI knows each champions ability so well.
If I'm fighting Apoc with 4 charges, it knows the light attack would stun me. If I'm fighting OGBP, it knows the perfect time for a special intercept, Domino's AAR working like 3000% AAR when I'm against her... I can do this all day.

Hyperion shooting up to Sp2 or Sp3 when I want to use Sp1 or Sp2

I never like silver centurion cause of his dumb playastyle that requires staying close to the defenders always. It's not useful in so many nodes.

That's just dashing in at the wrong time. AI will only ever intercept if you dash in while it's standing still without blocking, or if it's blocking on and off. Only dash in while it's fully holding block and you never get intercepted.

As far as personal peeves, MD pushing me way over where I want to be is a pretty big one, especially with Voodoo and Claire.

Also, being completely unable to reparry due to opponents repeatedly spamming immediate heavies after dashing in. Pretty annoying but they usually break out of it after a bit.

Forgetting to activate prefights, particularly Stealthy into fights where I absolutely need the slow.

Champions that can evade while blocking. Defensively it is great, offensively it is horrible especially when your muscle memory thinks you got a parry, but instead you got a combo to the face because you evaded and let down your block.

Civil Warrior's Armour Up to Fury conversion mechanic.
Trying to find time and space to dash back is more detrimental than anything else
I would have mentioned Scarlet Witch (Classic) random Power Drain/Steal, but that's all RNG anyway
Not-So-Super Skrull's Nova Fists. Trying to access it is... a pain.
Invisible Woman... at all

herc placing the infuriate debuff and some how the AI becomes an intercept god, and beating the beans out of me. its just really annoying how hercs main kit is countered so easily even tho its supposed to be to our advantage. especially with "updated game" the AI got a buff/fix while we the players still suffer

Skrull’s nova fist ability is the worst offensive ability in the game for me. So long of a setup for such a bleh payout.

When the opponent's so close to an sp3 and then AA's neurotoxins start expiring one after the other and you have to just stand there and look stupid

When the ai holds onto their special and no matter how long and how much I bait their special, they refuse to do it.
But the INSTANT they get their SP3, BOOM SP3.

I've found for some reason that 9/10 when I put the infuriate on them, and I try to backdraft intercept them, they will light intercept me. I usually only use infuriate id plan on special intercepting. The remainder of the time I just backdraft intercept normally.

That annoys me also. And on the other end of the spectrum I get the opponent dash into me as I’m dexing leaving no time for my own intercept. It’s like there are two different dash speeds/distances. Special intercept is the safer bet, until they block 😭

When you want to parry with Moleman but somehow the AI hits your block and they bounce off the unstoppable

Knucklez

The overuse of unblockable attacks in the game now, especially with increased lag, input drops, and dex not working correctly for many players.

THIS ONE is the one I hate the most, specially if you are fighting champs that gain power like Hyperion, Dragonman, Mordo, or others; as if there is a hidden "All or Nothing" node, so frustrating. And even more annoying when there is a timer, like Battlegrounds.

Khellendros138

Also when taunt seems to do nothing. Or in the same respect, when you have like 6+ furies with she-hulk and they don't throw their special...

its strange but ive had plenty of times where i do that with special intercept while the AI animation is dashing in, they somehow block just in time... im pretty sure thats a minor bug that causes major issues

Holding block to access abilities for champs, like lock on for Falcon or furies for Civil Warrior.

Ultron evading when I want to parry
There's literally an icon for his evade and it clearly tells you when he's about to evade. Just don't do anything while his evade is about to activate

he is maybe talking about LoL uktron

This Icarus fight.

Its only annoying 10 times.

* Seeing all of your Porker's Poppers expire just as you're using Spider-Ham's SP1 to pause them indefinitely.

* Having to bait a special attack when you're playing Namor and he's got a lot of damaging debuffs on himself.

* Claire Voyant shooting up to an SP3 instead of the SP2 when you're trying to regen while at ~5% health (or when you're trying to power drain an opponent who is at three full bars of power).
