Poke needs to be weak to dive
Everyone knows about the rock paper scissors gameplay that the three main team comps have. Brawl is weak to poke, dive is weak to brawl, poke is weak to dive.
Except, this isnt really true
why do poke characters like hela, widow, and hawkeye all have good anti-dive abilities? Dive should be their COUNTER not something thats kindof good against them. Hela has an easy to huge stun that drags enemies into it while disabling movement, lining them up to be two tapped. Hawkeye has a giant slash and a double jump that arent useful in any other part of his gameplay from what i've seen (not to mention his completely busted one shot).
Now widow. she has the most overpowered stun in the game other than emma's grab. you simply press a button with an enemy in range and then the same button more and it instantly lines up a headshot. It lasts for like four seconds and if you escape from the kick she can just drag you back from three miles away
i barely even play dive. im only just now learning Spiderman with near a thousand hours in the game. but i know that these characters should be weak to dive. If youre strong long range, you shouldnt be from short range.
