I WAS WRONG ABOUT YELENA

Tairique_turay0

I was wrong for the first time in my entire life. I thought Yelena would be the most boring champion in the game, considering how bland everything about her is in the movies. I assumed we would get MCU Yelena… but instead we got the sick Comics design…



Her special animations are also fire 🔥 I love characters that let bullets fly 🔫, and that’s exactly what Yelena does in her specials. Her reversal looks cool too (better than Patriots 😡😠😤 make Patriot a top tier skill champ! The Skill class NEEDS IT.)

Anyway… W to the Kabam animation team for knowing how boring the MCU Yelena is in terms of outfit, abilities, etc, and using her comic book design. I now Want Yelena 🤘🏽😤🔥🙏🏽💯💪🏽

Bland in the movies? Shes one of the best written characters they've come out with.

Kingering_King

She isn’t “bland” in the movies… her story is very well written, and Florence played her to perfection.

KDoggg2017

Florence is "chef's kiss." 💋

I would've rather had the Florence Pugh yelena she low-key annoying in comics

@Demonzfyre You didn’t read what I said properly. I said she is the most bland looking when it comes to her outfit and abilities/powers, or lack there of.

About her being ‘well written’ though…. she isn’t well written. How does Yelena go from finding out that Hawkeye isn’t the one who killed her Sister Natasha, which means that Valentina Allegra De Fontaine lied to her about who killed her sister… then in her next appearance in Thunderbolts, she is working for the woman that lied to her without any mention, reference or interaction covering the fact that she lied… which would absolutely cause tension between them to say the least. Yelena also didn’t react to the death of Female Taskmaster at all, even though Yelena and Taskmaster had the same horrible childhood. Yelena would relate with Female Taskmaster because they both went though so much torture. Yelena would hate to see Female Taskmaster go out like that, right in front of her. Her sister Natasha literally saved Female Taskmaster because she had so much guilt for what she did to her, and Natasha wanted the best for her. But in Thunderbolts, Yelena has no care or reaction to the fact that she just saw Female Taskmaster get shot in the dome right in front of here….

Calling Yelena ‘well written’ is laughable. She may be written better than most of the characters in the current MCU…. but is that really saying much? Nah.

Tairique_turay0

@Kingering_King No she is not ‘very well written’. ^ Florence Pugh is a very good actress though.

Tairique_turay0

@KDoggg2017 I wasn’t talking about Florence Pugh obviously lmao. I’m talking about her outfit and abilities. I said her design as a character is boring in the MCU.

If you think that's all that's happened with yelena, it sounds like you've missed some shows in there somewhere.

Tairique_turay0

@Buttehrs Where did I say that what I mentioned is all that happened with Yelena?!… I just gave some of the most recent examples of why she’s not well written. Basically replying to me with ‘no you are wrong’ is weightless. Either make at least 1 actual point or explain how i’m wrong… which I am not lol.

PT_99

Bland?
She's the main reason to watch Widow movie and new thunderbolts.

ahmynuts

The most interesting character the mcu has produced in years aside from Bob is bland? Youre cooked man pack it up

Is this you? This is you right? I can't tell if you wrote this or someone else.......but anyway, whoever said this said "bland everything", not looking, everything. But I can see how one can get confused with "looking" and "everything". They're spelled nearly identical and sound exactly the same.

Yelena in the movies and Hawkeye series isn't advanced in her story arc and the Yelena they modeled the MCOC version of. The MCOC version, is the comics version that has a ton of character development to go with that character model. Much like how Iron Man in the movies advances his suits along with more movies. She's had 3 appearances now. She's just beginning to get her backing with Valentina. But to say she's bland is just plain wrong. The character is played very well by Florence and she does an amazing job with connecting with all these characters she comes across. I'm sorry you need someone to have fancy weapons and things in movies to think they're great but it's not what makes a character good in movies.

I am also not sure what ideas you had about powers anyway? She's a Black Widow, they are not superhuman and have no real powers outside of being highly skilled combatants.

How dense can you actually be? Me stating she's done more than just those two things alone IS an example. Just one you obviously didn't get.

Tairique_turay0

@Demonzfyre 🤣 Lmao I did say ‘everything’ there, knowing some people would remember what I said about Yelena in a previous forums post, which is the entire reason I made this one. It was about her outfit design and how boring of a character she is to be added to MCOC. Just a B-Tech Black Widow. I said her design and abilities are bland ffs 🤣 not that her character is ‘bland’. There are issues with her absolutely, but MCU Yelena being added to MCOC is 100% bland on paper. A discount black widow with a trash suit/outfit and no interesting or unique ways of doing combat. Go and read my previous post about Yelena for some context 💀 you’re mixing what I said about her as a character, with what I said about her as a champion in MCOC. Not only have you not made an actual point to dismantle what I said about the bad writing of Yelena in the MCU…. you haven’t actually understood anything i’ve said correctly. With what you say in your responses, you don’t know what i’ve meant my anything i’ve said. I never even hinted at basically saying ‘she’s bland in the MOVIES because she doesn’t have abilities and a cool suit’. I was talking about her character design in MCOC!!! 💀 bro comprehension is a55. Until you can notice that there are 2 different conversations going on here instead of mixing them together… there’s no point when replying to you fr.

I think it’s a fair argument to say Yelena’s overall story (and the setup for Thunderbolts in general) is kind of choppy. But the writing for the individual characters — their relationships, motivations, emotions, etc — was very good, I thought.

The whole “how did we get here exactly?” problem is a problem of structure within the MCU. Getting to the starting line of Thunderbolts involved the Hawkeye show, F+WS, BW movie, and a bunch of stuff Marvel probably wishes they never did. But the characters specifically, I really liked them. (Maybe not Val, she just seems like warmed over Veep with some villainy sprinkled on top.)

Tairique_turay0

@Buttehrs You're clearly in the 10-14 age range, because even the most simple person would know that you saying ‘she’s done more than them moments’ as a response to the actual explained points that I made… is entirely useless 🤕 I’m sure you’ve had at least 1 English lesson is school. I’m sure that you’ve been asked you to ‘explain your reasoning’. I don’t remember being able to get a single mark on a test for saying nothing of substance…. so why did you think to basically say ‘she does more than them moments’ like it isn’t the most basic, common knowledge that Yelena has indeed been in other scenes than the ones I brought up… because she’s a main character… in a movie… 🤕 thanks for pointing out that Yelena has more than a couple of scenes 👍🏽 good job. Now can you make point? Like maybe counter one of mine? explain how what I said is wrong? This is what happens when someone isn’t able to notice the flaws in the writing of anything they watch, isn’t able to explain themselves, and is clearly just mad that I called one of their favourite MCU characters poorly written with examples and they have no way to tell me i’m wrong 💀

Honestly though. I’m always super happy when I see that Butthers has decided to give his valuable input on a subject. I never ever lose brain cells speaking to you 🤘🏽 truly someone who can make well structured replies that always make sense and are worth reading 🤘🏽 I’m just glad that you spend your time commenting on every forums post that has ever existed 🤘🏽 i’d feel incredibly sad for any forums post that isn’t blessed with your presence 🤘🏽 I can’t wait to see what you have to say on any future post of mine 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

Well when you write comments so fluidly and easy to understand and not contradictive, I can't even fathom how I didn't understand you. Looking back at everything you've written, I can fully accept my responsibility for not understanding what you wrote.

Op writes yelena will be trash-gets disagreed to oblivion
Op comes back and writes I was wrong, yelena is awesome- gets disagreed to oblivion by the same people.
Moral of the story: OP you can’t win.

First off, anyone that actually uses emoji as much as you have clearly indicates YOUR age as well as intellect level. And Secondly, since you wanna base your argument off her "boring abilities", what's your excuse your Misty knight being in game? Or Shang- chi? Or karnak? All they know is martial arts or guns right? Must be very boring for you. But I've got a little hint, every character in marvels backlog of characters, is someone's favorite. Just cause YOU don't think like them or think they are boring or won't translate to the game is just ignorant and arrogant. But then again, considering all your other posts you ever make, I expect nothing less.

Tairique_turay0

@Herbal_Taxman Yeah, Thunderbolts definitely made each character more likeable and more of… a character. Like always though, when they do this, it creates more and more inconsistencies. They changed the already established personalities of some of the main cast to make this movie how they did. Ghost & Walker specifically. Ghost went from character that would hardly speak and is very reserved and focused on her task / mission only… to a character that would crack jokes, speak too much and ramble at points. Walker went from a competent, logical character that most of the surrounding characters disrespect and dunk on for being logical 💀 to the slow minded clown of the Thunderbolts (after Red Guardian) that everyone disrespects and dunks on 🤣 I like the Thunderbolts movie but they just straight up change characters and their situations without an ounce of setup.
Like you mentioned, the ‘how did we get here’ issue that has plagued the MCU since the end of Phase 3 is still going on. There’s been close to ZERO setup for anything that has happen in these recent movies and future movies. Things just happen. I’m just glad that the characters and the story were actually taken seriously for once in a current MCU project. Despite all of the Thunderbolts flaws… I really enjoyed the movie and their efforts to finally make characters and the story interesting after years of slop.

@Buttehrs You didn’t address anything I said once again and like always. You aren’t even on subject 💀 It really is waste of time interacting with someone who is too Downright, Understandably, Monumentally, Bombastically, slow and lacks self awareness so much, that they think they’re smart.
You’re unable to make a point, unable to stay on topic, unable to realise that my opinion on Yelena being added to MCOC is a different conversation to my opinion on MCU Yelena as a character.
You won’t get another response from me here, else none of my brain cells will make it out of this interaction alive. 💀🧠 I’ll leave you to attend the 1000+ other forums posts that you are inevitably going to spend time typing on 💀👍🏽

You obviously didn't even read my comment. Homie, take a break. Seriously you deserve it. All those mental gymnastics must leave you exhausted.

@Graves_3
OP gets disagreed with a lot.
OP has and will always give his honest, uncommon opinion no matter how many disagree with him.
OP said Yelena’s design, animations and abilities will be as boring as the MCU Yelena is… not how trash she will be in terms of quality (get it right).
OP sees Kabam use Yelena’s comic design instead of her MCU design.
OP sees Yelena has cool animations.
OP has enough self awareness & honesty to change his mind and even say ‘i’m wrong’ on forums, knowing that forums weirdos like you will decide to think he’s catering to you because you need that validation.
OP wastes his time replying to idiots and wishes he didn’t 💀
