With his big heart, unstoppable optimism, and incredible Gem powers; Steven will always save the day!

[nimble galleon]

Smacking with Steven rn

[prisma whale]

100% win rate with Steven rn almost identical to beta

[somber silo]

funny float op

[distant tinsel]

my goat 😻

[sharp anchor]

Melon is so much better in this version or is it just me?

[distant tinsel]

what typa perks yall got so far

[worn quail]

perk 30s

[mild swan]

Does anybody know if anything changed with Steven? From the beta to now. Any nerfs or buffs?

[hot slate]

Only know that the combos where nerfed and his nair doesn't give armor to teammates anymore

[covert forge]

Keep cooking

[timid mango]

Best steven perks?

[haughty forge]

Bubble bounce, collateral damage

The rest idk

[mild swan]

I use to like the fire damage perk, just pretty easy to get off, don’t know if it’s still good

[versed bridge]

I haven’t lost a game or set with Steven in 1v1

Is Steven top tier?

[quasi thorn]

Does anyone else feel like Steven should get a slight moveset overhaul? Idk, I just kinda feel like a lot of what he does is just... Made up? Maybe I need to rewatch the show or something, but I don't remember anything in the source material looking like his neutral special in this game. I feel like he could also use his shield in his neutral attacks a bit more, like why does he summon some diamond-shaped barrier for the charge of his three-hit instead of his shield-

[haughty forge]

Some attacks are taken from Future/Movie

It's a weird decision, and a lot of us want some changes to his kit, or to just make his design the modern version.

[timid mango]

Just change to the modern design imo since his only interaction is with batman 💀 so they can just use voice lines from the show like they did with morty and rick in the beta

[haughty forge]

Good point

But it's likely that won't happen

[timid mango]

Fr i just want a future skin but if stevens already big in game imagine future/movie steven 💀

[void pilot]

how we feeling guys

imo steven might be one of the best characters rn but thats just me being an optimist

[terse cave]

I still haven't unlocked him 😭

[void pilot]

oh damn

should lowkey be allowed to show videos in these channels, i wanna show off some tech and what you can do with it

[haughty forge]

He feels really good to use so far

Or atleast better then the open beta

[void pilot]

100%

still miss some of the stuff he could do in beta though

[haughty forge]

I miss the armour give on nair

[void pilot]

found a frame tight kill confirm

found yet another kill confirm

this one is pretty hard but its so sick to hit

[mild swan]

Gotta pass the tips 😩, got like no real combos with Steven rn
Just get into the air and keep hitting em up

[void pilot]

so a combo ive been doing at early %

is like

dair, nair, up b, uair or fair

and then I chase with airdodge jump boost down b

ill send a link to these two kill confirms in a sec

[mild swan]

Ayyy fire thanks! 🫶

[void pilot]

just posting the other one rn

https://x.com/_Fluffybuns/status/1795710005037150348

https://x.com/_Fluffybuns/status/1795712940106199442

[mild swan]

Bro that second one seems so satisfying

[void pilot]

theres a variation of the first link where you do up b, jump dair them into the shield and then airdodge to where theyre sent and upair

[mild swan]

I haven’t used the shield for combos yet, is it still possible to use it as a “wall/floor”?

[void pilot]

yes

you can do some funny stuff

which is why collat dmg is good on steven

[mild swan]

I remember practicing the dair into shield so many times during the beta, just to never be able to pull it off in game 😭

[mild swan]

Def having it equipped

[void pilot]

oh i didnt mean like the acutal like defense shield I meant the up b shield my b

they got rid of the shield drop that steven had in beta

[mild swan]

OOOOO

[void pilot]

it has a lot more endlag now

[mild swan]

Sad

[void pilot]

yeah :/

[mild swan]

That was so satisfying

[void pilot]

frr

[mild swan]

Well thanks for the tips 🫡, I’ll frequent here to see what you’ve found captain

[void pilot]

gotchu

i might make a video at some point once i got more stuff down

another thing i didnt mention though was that

[mild swan]

Solid, thatd be clutch

[void pilot]

if you do jump and down b at the same time, you get like a bigger jump

[mild swan]

Woah that’s neat

Would’ve never found that out myself

[void pilot]

but youll be using down b in the air if you do this so its really good at calling out people jumping back to stage

and if you pair this up with the dodge jump boost you can go flying somewhat similar to the down b glide in beta

and it could be a decent approach tool

[mild swan]

Oooo, good to know thx

[void pilot]

npnp

[iron remnant]

Lmao anyone else get resurectionist yet

[twilit wadi]

How’s Steven in the new update didn’t play as him yet

[covert forge]

Goat stevelaflame uploaded

[unreal drum]

Sooo any other perks except collateral damage and bubble bounce ?

[covert forge]

Use the flame perk

Really good

[vestal turtle]

there’s a basic perk that every character gets

i feel like it’s the best for steven

[vestal turtle]

he’s worse

they nerfed him

[red sandal]

is it jusdt me or does his kick after dair always knockback up

[void pilot]

It does for some reason

[void pilot]

He's not worse

He got balanced around being able to kill a lot earlier now, and similarly to how most characters lost his loops, he still has a decent combo game and mad kill power.

And I think he's heavier now? At least it feels that way

And he also seems to be forgiving when it comes to parrying because if you mess up the timing you'll just be in your shield which is pretty big

[upbeat kiln]

Watermelon Steven gets so big now

holy

[covert forge]

Pls multiversus increase the movement speed and add Fov slider

[upbeat kiln]

Steven feels better now tbh

The lack of movement spam actually makes playing him bareable

[red sandal]

they should really adda cooldown for bubble to indicate when its back cuz it feels like my bubble will be gone for a half the match

[true badger]

Dk if someone is really interested by it but I find funny the fact that both Steven's alternates costume have the tag tank, maybe he was supposed to become a tank before being a mage, which would have suit him better I feel like

[river bay]

He is a Tank

[void dagger]

what other perks are good for steven from the non yellow categories

[true badger]

Fr ? In the french version he's noted as a mage on the default skin

Maybe it's just a traduction thing

[true badger]

I feel like the collateral damage one is really huge because they be bouncing on your shield a lot

[void dagger]

i mean yeah i do use that one, but what about the other perks?

[true badger]

Then the one that breaks armor is just to insane against character like ww or superman even tough Steven have really not a lot of charge move

And then snowball effect is just to good too

But I personally run the one that grant a projectile shield 'cause I be struggling against the bunny and gizmo

Help to just dash attack through their projectile

[void dagger]

how long does that shield last?

[true badger]

One hit only

[void dagger]

but like, you keep it until you get hit?

[true badger]

But it reset every time u land

[void dagger]

ah

[true badger]

I think so

U just have to run for 0.5s in a straight direction, Which is not that much of a deal if ur in neutral

[void dagger]

isn't that the sameish time for a dash attack anyway?

[true badger]

But yeah snowball effect is just better for most of the cast, being able to do more damage by doing literally nothing is just great

[true badger]

I think so yeah so u can just go through projectiles, but It be pretty situational, I usually run it only against some character

[void dagger]

i am indeed running snowball on other characters

[true badger]

We miss a lot of the perks we had in the beta so yeh u be running quite the same perks for a lot of the cast

Before I was playing with the reduced cooldown one 'cause Steven bomb is really strong but they are not in the game anymore

[void dagger]

thanks for the help

[true badger]

Np

[burnt pasture]

Do yall think Steve is better in the full version then in beta?

[distant tinsel]

nah every character felt better back then

they feel weird and bland now

[sacred cipher]

I wish Steven could kill off his S-air

[slate carbon]

he can at high percents/close to blast zone

[sacred cipher]

I mean like banana guard

Steven side air doesn’t do shi

[slate carbon]

its a pretty good approach and it reflects

[void pilot]

just had the worst watermelon steven moment

kid you not, just stared at banana guard for 4 seconds while he was right in his face flexing and lil bro did nothing 😭

[modern ivy]

That guy always does nothing

[slate carbon]

hes def more useful than he was during the beta

[void pilot]

i know it was just painful to watch

[crisp escarp]

YO HOWS THE WATERMELON STEVEN PERK

[slate carbon]

somehow worse bc WS is already big so he just grows to Iron GIant size while being lighter than arya

[crisp escarp]

T^T bruh i see

[unreal drum]

en français il est mage et tank 🙂

[slate carbon]

i hope shield wall's hp is buffed since everyone's damage got super buffed

thing lasts for not even a second sometimes

[timid mango]

Best perks for him are green thumb thats flammable doc collateral damage and pugilist

imo

when u summon watermelon steven they are gonna go for him first than focus on you so just get them from the back and you and watermelon steven can do damage on them

[slate carbon]

i still think bounce bubble is better bc WS doesnt gain any weight when he grows so he just becomes IG size but dies instantly

[slate carbon]

i remember hearing that nair isnt a projectile anymore, but ig since you have flammable on here then i guess it still is?

[regal yew]

The diamond barrier is from Steven Universe: future

[haughty forge]

Why does steven not have a toon skin?

Pretty much the whole roster has them, with a few exceptions

[slate carbon]

by future he's shown to have the ability to create geometric shapes out of his powers

[crisp escarp]

man steven is actually meta now what a glowup

[slate carbon]

he feels so good in 2s

[trim glade]

yo

anyone got the SU discord

or is that gone

[slate carbon]

i gotchu

[sacred cipher]

@slate carbon I still can’t talk in there

[slate carbon]

i would honestly try to leave and rejoin since someone just joined and is fine

[sacred cipher]

I can’t make an invite

@slate carbon

Send one

[slate carbon]

done

[mild swan]

Yo can somebody send me the SU discord

[sacred cipher]

@mild swan sent

[crisp escarp]

YO WAIT CAN I GET IT TOO

[mild swan]

Thanks broski

[light night]

did steven get buffed?

i main him, he feels a little stronger. idk why

also did they remove the nair teammate armor?

[void pilot]

they removed this yeah

[slate carbon]

they nerfed his combos but he sends you to space at 30

[light night]

that's what it feels like for me

[light night]

that sucks, seems like they're going more the mage route instead of the support route. i used that a lot

[slate carbon]

im fully certain hes a tank

itd make more sense than a mage

[haughty forge]

He's definitely a tank now

I'm surviving way longer as steven then usual

[native kettle]

dair

[bitter thorn]

Anyone know good perks for Steven v

?

[bitter thorn]

He’s both isn’t he ?

[somber silo]

Anyone found consistent use for dash attack? Closest I've gotten is a falling Nair into dash attack killing at 60 off the side a few times but I'm pretty sure it was warcrime DI

[hot latch]

Can I get added to the Steven discord??

[subtle hamlet]

YOOO which sig do yall prefer??

[trim glade]

Tbh I just used perks from a website in the beta iirc but there’s a chance I changed it up later on. idek if some of the perks actually exist anymore

[trim glade]

His shields are more important imo

[subtle hamlet]

does it create more opportunities for combos? i see it says the hitstun is increased. i been running green thumb but felt like i was missing out on sum better. i used it but didnt really know how to abuse bounce bubble

[eager cobalt]

This character sucks

[hot latch]

Then stay out of this channel?

[eager cobalt]

Bio checks out

[timber haven]

pfp checks out lol

Steven THE GOAT Quartz Diamond Demayo Universe

[versed bridge]

Real

I feel Steven is B tier

[timber haven]

Fair

I'm just happy because he feels a LOT better than he did in the beta

Maybe I was trash but I had no impact as Steven

[red sandal]

I suck now

[raven spindle]

Is there a way to cancel upwards momentum into a float? In a perfect universe (pun intended) without burning a jump?

[crisp escarp]

that would be nice :(

[raven spindle]

Maybe shield into float??

Lemme hop on and try some stuff

[eager cobalt]

@gentle sail

Hi

[gentle sail]

Whar

[obsidian crystal]

You can jump cancel Stevens aerial down B

combine that with airdodge and you can do some nasty movement fakeouts

hmm I think you can "everything"-cancel the air down b, theres just some inital frames where the shield has to come out

oh yeah just buffer jump during the down b

[sacred cipher]

How to jump cancel

[obsidian crystal]

buffer jump a little after pressing down b in the air

[sacred cipher]

I’m on PlayStation

Wdym down b

Down air?

[wraith plinth]

down special I'd assume?

[obsidian crystal]

sorry im a smash player, down special yes

[sacred cipher]

oh okay

[wraith plinth]

yea, I gots the lingo too, I'm guilty of doing that lol

[obsidian crystal]

https://medal.tv/games/multiversus/clips/hYgTlKlKN5lNEb5tF/LOVyFHwy9rDs?invite=cr-MSxwZFosOTQ1MTk0MDYs?mobilebypass=true

https://medal.tv/games/multiversus/clips/hYgYhaJIjH44HSHnk/d1337OsGo0TW?invite=cr-MSw2NTUsOTQ1MTk0MDYs

you can do both attacks and airdodge cancels at that same timing

https://medal.tv/games/multiversus/clips/hYh0WWuiZA2y9wUIO/d1337PfdyHCW?invite=cr-MSxXQVosOTQ1MTk0MDYs

i guess which means you can cancel it into neutral airdodge/parry right LOL

and our shield

[light night]

that's what i would say if i was crazy

[void pilot]

On top of this, if you press down b at the same as you jump you gain a bigger jump

Pair this up with dodge jump, you can go pretty far distance with this

[native kettle]

inv me to su cord

[obsidian crystal]

huh nice

this characters movement is gonna go crazy

[obsidian crystal]

cant quite tell if this is higher than the normal full jump though

[vernal helm]

what perks yall run on steven

[void pilot]

it is, its not by a huge amount but its noticeable

[obsidian crystal]

yeah i see it now

[void pilot]

I just found an insane kill confirm

working from 55-70

requires a fully charged nair though but if you can get it will lead into a kill

https://x.com/_Fluffybuns/status/1796428152761360426

could probably do shorter charges at higher % but that would mean youre putting yourself at risk of trading or getting stuffed out

[void pilot]

https://x.com/_Fluffybuns/status/1796433968881164386

and that

[obsidian crystal]

ooh following up on sideways hit nair @void pilot are you just fastfalling plus hitting the edge of the nair

oh its late hit

[obsidian crystal]

@void pilot you can get nair after jab 1/2

[dull rune]

What’s his playstyle

[obsidian crystal]

Mobile, trappy, defensive, and whiff punish-y

Use the side and up-special walls to restrict your opponents movement and capitalize from there. You can back off and shield and use the neutral special tether to ward off approaches. His passive shield means you have a lot of free chances to predict attacks.

Most of his kills come from juggling in the air. Use the up-special as platforms to regain jumps, and read your opponents option from below and kill with up-special -> upair or just upair

[lofty remnant]

You hold down to cancel then up to float i think

[hot slate]

Anyone checked if we can combo stevens jab 1 into nair? Could have a really nice loop with jab1, nair, dair. Haven't been able to check with training mode ai not working.

[neat solstice]

is steven broken?

[olive spoke]

in the most tame way possible

his kit really fits well with countering meta

can counter projectiles, set up a base for him and teammates, provide extra damage, can provide really good survivability, hes good at giving follow ups

[neat solstice]

alr gonna switch my main to steven then

Was finn main

but won’t play him again until he gets buffed

[eternal crest]

Team dependent though

so don’t solo queue and waste all your value because you didn’t have a good second

I take that back w Steven

[neat solstice]

lol

[strong rain]

For these you have to remember the bot is trying to re center so it always gonna move towards you

A player could but dodge back

[void pilot]

actually, the di was very different each time sometimes the di was to the left or to the right but the dodges themselves for her only came out if she didnt bounce on the stage after getting hit with nair

cause theres this thing you can do with nair where if you let go while youre in the air and fastfall, the game thinks you did the nair above them, so it spikes them on the ground allowing for followups

[strong rain]

Hmm

Ok

[sacred cipher]

Every time I use Steven neutral I get hit man

[dull rune]

is he a set up character

[void pilot]

he can be

[dull rune]

do u think hes a good character to be if ur play style is set up

[void pilot]

yes, setting up shields for longer combos, and to disrupt your opponent's game plan is really good with steven

[neat solstice]

Is shield surf attack from steven used much?

[obsidian crystal]

Feels very useful to me. You can cancel out of it with jump attack or airdodge, it grants movement and the hitbox can provide coverage from below

[dull rune]

is it possible to play steven as aggro

[raven spindle]

I personally solo queue Steven. Just practice shield placement and lock em in with vertical combos, he's very vertical if you're solo

Up air is a good kill option from what I can tell (it's the only thing I've learned to kill with other than an up tilt while standing on an elevated shield)

[dull rune]

should i get marvin or steven if a play a mixture of both 1s and 2s and want someone who can set up or atleast kinda set up and has aggro protential

[raven spindle]

I don't know Marv fr so idk, I just know Steven is technical AF with shields and floating and stuff

I think Marv is more what you're gonna be looking for with Aggro tho. Steven is trying to punish whiffs bc his hitboxes tend (not all) to be smaller and closer to his body so a lot of your combos are gonna be rewards for a good punish. From what I've seen, Marv is more like you set up your kit on the field and string it all together

[slate carbon]

you can kinda combo people with up special and up air

[raven spindle]

@slate carbon i sent a small demonstration of this in clips. Nothing insane but an idea

[haughty forge]

I usually do up air and then up special

[slate carbon]

you're a lot more creative with steven than me ill give you that

[raven spindle]

Up air, up special,jump, land on shield, up tilt

[haughty forge]

Also can steven have 2 up shields at the same time now? It's happend a few times with me and I'm not sure if it's intentional or not

[raven spindle]

I don't think it's intentional? It only seems to happen with lag for me

[haughty forge]

Weird

[slate carbon]

i think if you upspecial 2x really fast then it gives you 2

[haughty forge]

Ah

[slate carbon]

so what nova said its prob a lag thing

[haughty forge]

I guess that could be useful

[raven spindle]

I'm coming in with 10+ years of smash bros, so things piece together a little easier for me. I haven't even retried the beta falling nair combos

[slate carbon]

oh speaking of falling has anyone noticed how steven can't fastfall while bubbled anymore?

[haughty forge]

Noticed that too, I kinda hate it lmao

[raven spindle]

I have not but that's good to know. I know I was trying to use bubble to cancel into a float but it's way too slow to be viable

[haughty forge]

It used to be good defence to land safely but uh

[slate carbon]

i remember using it all the time to escape being at the top

[haughty forge]

Not anymore

[raven spindle]

Shield surf provides some protection when falling in

[slate carbon]

now you have to bait them into trying

[raven spindle]

If I'm not mistaken 😬

[haughty forge]

You can still get hit, but yeah it does give you protection

[slate carbon]

in my experience i just get my surf hit through

[haughty forge]

It's better then just falling normally

[raven spindle]

I think hitboxes still need tweaked tbh. Specifically disjointed ones

[haughty forge]

I forget to dive kick with surf, I just go straight to down air after landing a surf

[raven spindle]

Tbh I really like the sideways kick when your side special is on cooldown

[haughty forge]

Same, just feels kinda slow

[raven spindle]

I like how you can fast fall and carry momentum though

[haughty forge]

Stevens dash attack is pretty good too

[raven spindle]

Yeah but I have trouble with dash attacks. What's the trick to being consistent?

[haughty forge]

Honestly I see them just being good approaches

They can't really combo, lmao

[raven spindle]

Good mix up though

I almost don't like Stevens bubble status effects he gives though. It kinda disrupts the flow

[haughty forge]

Dash attack is pretty good if the enemy is almost bubbled

[raven spindle]

Lol

[haughty forge]

I guess it gives some time to heal, but agreed

Sometimes you can set up a kill but it's really weird

[raven spindle]

You have to pop it first it seems

[haughty forge]

I don't think you can pop it

[raven spindle]

So it's like you need someone to follow up after hitting it

Oh

[haughty forge]

You just have to wait for it to pop itself

[raven spindle]

Maybe my timing was just that close

Lame

[haughty forge]

Yeah

Only people who can pop it are the enemy's allies

[raven spindle]

Ahh yeah that's kinda lame fr

[haughty forge]

true

Only reason I see to bubble is just to heal a bit or get a break

In 2's it's pretty good cause then you can just 2v1 for a bit

[raven spindle]

Yeah 2v2s I can see the application but otherwise 😬 but I can't really complain because the game is balanced around tag team matches

[haughty forge]

Yeah, 2's is recommended after all

Man

I want steven to have a toon skin 💀

[obsidian crystal]

I actually think through mastering the down special jump cancel, down special is gonna be a basically another aerial

[sacred cipher]

I play passive with Steven ngl

[dull rune]

i said is it possible not what do u play it as

[devout dirge]

I mean I've been playing him aggro in my matches so far today and found success

So I def think it depends on the player and how good they are

[hot latch]

https://x.com/kjontopSFL/status/1796629167615701499?t=iZQZ5HMYWZ-gZTj3qxIP6A&s=09

We love Steven chat.

[hot latch]

Steven's bubble set-ups are easy

The bubble goes in the direction you hit it. So do an up attack. This limits their wake up options. The bubble takes 5 seconds to pop, so get close to the bubble and charge an attack at 3-4 seconds.

Up air is a great kill move so probably do that

[grizzled star]

if anybody can hit me with the steven discord link that'd be greatly appreciated

[slate carbon]

the server is bugged and if you join recently you just cant see any chat histories

[grizzled star]

ah okay.
thanks man

[raven spindle]

I love solo queue Steven 😌 I hope it makes people cry

Who would win? Ultra Instinct Shaggy or Pink Hawaiian

[slate carbon]

does anybody know if WS can trigger perks

[raven spindle]

No clue

[slate carbon]

purest of motivations would go crazy on him if it does

[raven spindle]

He probably doesn't count as a whole other fighter

[haughty forge]

Honestly would make WS worth it lmao

[raven spindle]

Like how tom and Jerry are technically two but not

[slate carbon]

maybe armor crush would be more worth it since he always fully charges

[haughty forge]

But probably only counts as a minion sadly

[raven spindle]

Yea

Crazy how good Steven juggles tho

[fathom axle]

Anyone got some steven techs?

[obsidian crystal]

scroll up a bit, there's talk about canceling aerial down special with jump/airdodge/attack.

comboing with late hit neutral air (sideways hitbox)

I've also found that you can have two up special walls up at a time, only if you summon the second one late into the first one's duration. About a little more than ~5 seconds I think?

[deft bolt]

Best perks for Steven?

[fathom axle]

Yo thanks im gonna try it next time I play

[molten lynx]

hm

[slate carbon]

collat, ignite (nair is a projectile), pugilist

[light night]

@wide ether Are you going to come back? 👀

[sacred cipher]

He’s streaming rn

[sacred cipher]

Why does Steven have low hit priority

[slate carbon]

hes very slow

[astral remnant]

What are the best perks for Steven?

[slate carbon]

collat, ignite (nair is a projectile), pugilist

[astral remnant]

I dont see any of those

[slate carbon]

collateral damage, That's flammable doc, pugilist

[ancient zodiac]

just got steven, his moves don't really seem bad so I might be maining steven universe characters only

[raven spindle]

If you're in duos the uh. Airial reset on ko perk is pretty good too, Steven wants to be in the air ats long as he can fr

Honestly you could probably pull off decent double kos pretty regularly with it if you get good enough

Also just as a general rule of thumb, dodging is also an approach and movement option. Utilize it properly and you can extend strings

String- Noun. A series of attacks that aren't a confirmed hit into each other
Combo- Noun. Separate attacks that lead into each other without a chance for escape.

How pretentious of me.

I'm sorry

[sacred cipher]

Ppl ranking Steven high tier now?

[olive spoke]

yeah he's good

explosive damage and good neutral control

[sacred cipher]

Welp he’s probably getting nerfed soon then

[olive spoke]

nah, I think with how the game changed his play style just fits it really well

[slate carbon]

doesnt mean they arent gonna nerf him

[red sandal]

is the surf supposed to stop when armored attack charge up?

cuz when fighting wonderwoman every time she armors herself my surf just stops

shaggy also

[raven spindle]

It stops on contact, armor absorbs one hit unless it's armor breaking

You don't go through or whiff an attack with armor, you still hit them so you respond accordingly, which is Steven jumping off his shield. But if they have armor they essentially ignore the hitstun and knock back of the attack altogether so you just get left in disadvantage

[red sandal]

no i dont hit them

i just stop

like im against a wall

to clarify i mean on the ground

[pine rain]

Steven is so good rn i really hope he isnt nerfed

[sacred cipher]

Would be better without the input buffer

[pine rain]

nah fr

[sacred cipher]

Idk who thought 30 was a good idea

[slate carbon]

people are ranking him at the top of tier lists a lot hes getting d tiered

[pine rain]

this is the one time us steven mains can have steven actually be good

watch him get insta nerfed lol

im suprise i dont see alot of stevens online tho

i think i only saw 2 so far

[sacred cipher]

Pay first games will nerf Steven before BG

[slate carbon]

hes still steven

[pine rain]

real

[sacred cipher]

A lot of ppl don’t like SU

I’m in different towards it

If another SU character go announced before everyone wishlist characters

The amount of hate you will see is wild

[red sandal]

does anybody know what a friendly batterang does

[keen relic]

what is thebestperks for steven yall

[molten lynx]

can't speak for 1v1s, but in 2v2, the shield knockback momentum one, w/o a doubt

[fluid ermine]

Here's my current tier list if anyone is interested

S Tier: WW, Banana Guard, Steven, Bugs, Harley
A Tier: Arya, T&J, Marvin, Black Adam, Joker, Finn
B Tier: Shaggy, Morty, Rick, Jake, Superman, Batman, LeBron, Stripe,
C Tier: Gizmo, Garnet, Jason, Iron Giant
D Tier: Reindog, Taz, Velma

Just want to get feedback

[molten lynx]

is this for 1v1s ?

velma is deffo not the lowest tier

shes wildly different to how she was before, but she's actually better than old velma at 1v1s, i think

shes a bit more of a boxer now

[harsh isle]

what perks yall running for steven?

[fluid ermine]

Yes

[solemn dragon]

best perk for steven?

[fluid ermine]

Balancing is a pfg issue

Warner doesn't touch that

[river bay]

Even though BG is way overtuned compared to steveb

[timid mango]

We aint getting wedding steven its so hard to level up the battle pass 💀

[fluid ermine]

No one getting that Jason skin that's for sure

I bet most don't even make it past 40

[harsh isle]

im at 12 and a half

[sacred cipher]

I’m at 11 I think

Idc for Jason I want the wedding skin

[harsh isle]

im getting everything

[raven spindle]

I hope Steven Universe ends up like, the fire Emblem of MultiVersus. Just give us all of them for no good reason

[sacred cipher]

Nah…

[raven spindle]

Yes

[sacred cipher]

It’s gonna either be DC or looney tunes

And they’re better option

[raven spindle]

Pumpkin for MvS

[native kettle]

has anyone encountered the glitch where u get stuck to superman and cant do anything

[sacred cipher]

Most ppl don’t like SU(tbf idc for it)

[raven spindle]

😬

[sacred cipher]

Rather see Ben 10 beast boy or static shock

Before another SU character

I hope you realize ur in the minority

[raven spindle]

I do

I am quite aware

I never hear the end of it

[native kettle]

someone inv me to stevencord

[harsh isle]

[native kettle]

[haughty forge]

54 more teirs left

hrhahdhahdhs

[native kettle]

[haughty forge]

I really recommend to do the power pledge missions

500 battlepass xp per level up is really good after you do the others

[sacred cipher]

No point

There’s a broken bot and new users can’t see any channels

[native kettle]

brutal

[sacred cipher]

here is that bug i ran into

[spice sapphire]

I mean battle pass lasts 51 more days lol

in like 4 days I'm on tier 14

[ivory raptor]

Steven mains on their way to use one attack the whole match because the devs removed attack decay

[fluid ermine]

Just dodge it wym?

[ivory raptor]

I never said I couldn't counter it

It's just silly

[fluid ermine]

Then should be fine

[ivory raptor]

Nah it's lame

It makes the game boring

[fluid ermine]

😂

[ivory raptor]

Bring back attack decay so people use their characters kits 🗣️

[fluid ermine]

They might

They did say beta features are returning

Attack decay wasn't on the list but still a possibility

[ivory raptor]

I guess I'll probably be boned if they do that though, Joker's uair and jab feel like the only attacks I can consistently land

[fluid ermine]

Guess you gotta figure out his other moves

[ivory raptor]

The issue is they're charged moves, I'm used to non-charged moves (used to main Shaggy)

So his fair or dair won't come out as quick as a jab or uair would

[knotty current]

anyone find the banana guard matchup in 1s near impossible? feel like spear just beats everything and one smack non-charged almost always instants the clone

[hot latch]

Somewhat

[pine rain]

Sheild (main perk)

the rainbow platform thing (can replace for speed perk)
ignite perk
melee perk

i forgot most of their names lol

[pine rain]

tips as a steven main fighting banana guard

1. Always put your sheild in the middle of the battle feild (this way you give BG less movement and he isnt able to spam dash alot)
2. do not try to brawl him instead try to use down air as often as you can (dont do it too much or it becomes pridictable)
3. Set up water melon steven every chance you get. Alot of trash BG mains will attack water melon steven, this give your the PERFECT time to down air + up air combo or just attack normally
4. Time your attack and know how to posistion yourself to not be near BG spear. If he trys to come close to you and attack you can just back up abit and counter attack (basic example but too lazy to make more)

[slate carbon]

the problem with tip 1 is most BGs spam side special, which can insta break shield

[pine rain]

ddamn i forgot about that

i mean there aint much to do

honest i just spam down air

the whole game

and when hes high stock

i just up air combo him

and kill

but FINN

FINN IS WORSE

you straight up lose

[deft bolt]

Had the sad realization this load is very very terrible.

[slate carbon]

explain

[deft bolt]

No signature perks and the only good one is ignite

[slate carbon]

collateral damage bc your gonna be bouncing off your shields or the floor a lot, pugilist bc steven has like 3 moves that arent melee

[slate carbon]

sig id say bounce bubble or the 5%

[pine rain]

ignite speed and the melee perk is the best or steven

if you want to be more gimmicky like me then replace speed for that rainbow platform perk

its hard to use but i feel like steven has huge potential with it

[wide ether]

Ye

[light night]

[obsidian crystal]

do you think the best way to use watermelon steven is to bait out attacks (punish endlag?)

[tame portal]

czn I get invited to the steven discord

[topaz saffron]

What are the best perks for Steven

[runic fog]

was steven always this tuff?

[obsidian crystal]

https://medal.tv/games/multiversus/clips/hZfpn2Q8X93Ki5yrj/d1337aJPuRHz?invite=cr-MSxCN0osOTQ1MTk0MDYs

airdogde canceling shieldsurf is so good, very basic application

[lethal phoenix]

Does the "turning an enemy into a bubble" thing have any application outside 2v2:s? edit: nevermind, just made someone jump out of it straight into the blastzone lmao

[topaz saffron]

In 1s I believe that Steven was an underrated character and he was often pretty low on tier lists. In 2s however he was strong and was a viable pick.

[raven spindle]

N-air is like fine dining

[pine rain]

yep 100%

i alwayus here people say "water melon steven is useless" but he allows you to get free hits off if your enemy is distracted trying to hit your melon

[native kettle]

sometimes i put a shield underneath the bubble and time a uppercut or wait to read which way they airdodge out and punish but if you go really high that could also easily get you killed

or i use time to heal

[slate carbon]

the problem is anyone with a brain is gonna just focus you bc they know they're gonna kill WS accidentally anyway

[river bay]

God no. I'm sorry but attack decay was horrible

[austere bay]

Does Steven have any glitches relating to him?

[light night]

attack decay was horrible i agree but i think there should some stale system in place still

harley spamming sair the entire game isn't necessarily the funnest thing ever

[slate carbon]

i think its just like smash where it only decreases damage

[light night]

i feel like that would be better honestly

[slate carbon]

i think thats what does happen now

[light night]

really?

it just doesn't show?

[slate carbon]

yeah

[river bay]

You really can't tell when a move stales in smash either

[deft bolt]

Happened to me multiple times when ever I’d fight Morty would get sent out of bounds and unable to do anything the entire match

[hot latch]

You can do anything as finn bro

[pine rain]

Fr

I just spam and hope i win when i see a finn

[analog spindle]

what tier yall think steven is

[frigid hazel]

s

[light night]

high A tier and S

[dim haven]

Despite 8-bit being garbage, I love your pfp, man!

[pine rain]

S

Other then Finn match ups steven basically wins everything

[ivory raptor]

Idk what PFG was thinking but they made so many characters so unfair to fight

Steven's up air is disgusting

Vile attack

[pine rain]

Nah fr

[pine rain]

The game is a joke rn

[ivory raptor]

Bring everyone up or down to the Jokers level he is the pinacle of balancing in this game

[pine rain]

Jason, steven, iron gaint, joker, marvin, harly and gizmo are CRACKED rn

[ivory raptor]

Jason 😭

Jason is mid asf

High B tier at best

[pine rain]

Jason is good but he takes skill

But eh

Most people dont have skills soo

[ivory raptor]

He's mid

[pine rain]

So yea

B tier

[ivory raptor]

He's too slow to be S tier like Steven or IG

And what is Marvin doing on the same level as IG?

And where's WW?

[pine rain]

He’s literally super good

Only thing holding him back is the broken meta + hes combo food

If you know how to position properly then jason is actually REALLY good

[ivory raptor]

He's super slow

[pine rain]

Most people ate just too used to fast characters

[ivory raptor]

His fastest attack is in slow mo

[pine rain]

He makes up for that

He has gray health
Great moves
Alot of damage
And a crazy ability

Him being slow is fine

If he was fast then that would be a huge problem

[deft bolt]

Shield is so great against finn I love it

[raven spindle]

Which shield

Man's got like 90 of them

[tame portal]

I wouldn't say margin is broken

I wouldn't say margin is broken

[light night]

i fought an evo 2022 9th place player the other day, insane character

[pine rain]

W

[light night]

like i never knew the target thing marvin had made ALL projectiles target them including ALLY projectiles

we got slammed in 2s

and marvins ledge guard ability is insane

[frigid hazel]

jason is terrible he's a D tier bro 💀

if you're losing to Jason that's a skill thing

[tall hornet]

What's Steven's best perk build?

Been cooking with him on generalist but wanna take him seriously

[neat solstice]

extra kb

[neat solstice]

not D bro more like F

[pine rain]

Imagine characters that take skill

Jason isnt op

But i still think he has potential

Once infinite combos get patch and some nerfs come into the game jason will get better

[pine rain]

Sheild perk

Speed perk
Ignite
And that damage buff perk

Thats what i use

[fathom axle]

I use collateral damage but I think ignite is better

[light night]

infinites are only possible again because of the attack decay removal

which sucks because that system is terrible too

[pine rain]

ngl im fine with attack decay

i want it back

cause spamming is now viable

shaggy, superman and banana gaurd can just spam and get you at a high % for free

[red sandal]

i hate that you cant use baterang anymore

[deft bolt]

5% or bounce bubble

[crisp escarp]

why not both collat and ignite

[obtuse fjord]

I faced my 1st Steven, we played a few games together. I didn't figured a single counterplay to the armor bubble, is the move just that busted currently ?

I was doubtful about the top players talking about how strong was Steven but I lowkey get it lol

I was constently reversed by the armor bubble, didn't find a solution so that made our matches that much more difficult :/

[rose raven]

i mained steven in the beta but switched to morty, glad to be back after grinding for another 3k coins lol

[crisp escarp]

if you have any multihit moves that just destroys it i think

[obtuse fjord]

double hit sure din't

[haughty forge]

It's always been a 3x hit armor

Multihit moves work well, and it takes a while for the cooldown to come back just for one sheild.

[obtuse fjord]

Thanks for the clarification

Yea I figured the cooldown was long but he can delay it so easily

But yea Batman only have one 2-hit move and I couldn't do a lot with it. Might try Banana Guard for the MU

[slate carbon]

like everyone else said with multihits or you can just use an armor break moves

[night bolt]

Day 1 of asking for Future Steven Alt in Multiversus (Please with proper VA)

[olive spoke]

does nair not give teammates armor anymore?

[haughty forge]

Yes

[covert osprey]

Player first games has taken iron giant out back and shot him in the face so I'ma play Steven until he comes back

Y'all got any tips for me?

[haughty forge]

the power of friendship always wins

that's all you need to know

[covert osprey]

:/

[haughty forge]

no but seriously make sure to have some good perks

bubble bounce / 5% as the signature

collateral is also really good as you'll be using shields a LOT in battles

use watermelon steven as a distraction, blah blah blah

steven also has really good latter's so

🤷

[covert osprey]

Thanks

Yeah I'm using bubble bounce

Don't really like the 5% sigs

[rugged hollow]

Steven superman and black adam mu?

[obtuse fjord]

wait it just act as a classic armor stance that happen to absorb 3 hit instead of 1 ?

so the charged attacks armor break perk works on it ?

[fathom axle]

Hey, I been noticing that almost all of my kills end up on the top part, is this normal?
(With steven)

[fathom axle]

I think so, havent encounterd anyone that did that to me tho

[crisp escarp]

anyone have a clip of steven dair infinite

[slate carbon]

its more like 3 separate instances of armor that stays, but using armor break puts him into hit stun so it pauses

[obtuse fjord]

I don't get it, it just break one "layer" of armor then ? So you don't get punished because of the hit pause but you don't punish him neither ? lol

[slate carbon]

usually its 3 separate layers of armor, but when you get hit with an armor break move, it breaks a layer and hits you as if you didnt have the bubble up

[obtuse fjord]

This is where I don't get it. To me, it either works and break the stance entirely and hit Steven, or it doesn't and just count as a single hit. I don't understand the whole "break one layer AND hit as if he didn't have the bubble"

I guess my question is : will I punch the f*ck out of Steven if I armor break him during the stance ? lol

[slate carbon]

yes

[obtuse fjord]

Nice

[slate carbon]

armor break moves just act as if he has a single instance of armor

[obtuse fjord]

The perk is pretty much mandatory in the matchup unless you have an aerial armor break move like Shaggy

[slate carbon]

something else to note is steven is very stubby with his hitboxes, so spacing is very important

[bitter thorn]

Anyone know decent perks for Steven

[obtuse fjord]

if there is a good Steven willing to play me, ping me. I main Batman and would like to train the MU

[covert forge]

Hella people playing Steven they might nerf bro 😭

[deft bolt]

Collateral and ignite are very good and 5% or bouncebubble

I personally like 5%

[ivory raptor]

Good, he's top 8 rn

[bitter thorn]

Ty

[covert forge]

I don’t need my boy being nerfed

[ivory raptor]

Then you shouldn't have let him get buffed to where he kills at 40% on half the cast

[haughty forge]

You act like he's a dev 😭

[timid mango]

im a bit confused

ive just had a nice set against a steven main, but i dont quite understand if there is anything i can do about his shield

im a jason main btw

my command grabs go through im pretty sure but thats about it

he just takes a hit and counters me right after

does he just have a get out of jail free card with that or what

[deft bolt]

I don’t think I’ll be able to reach wedding Steven it’s too much grind 😞

[slate carbon]

its not that bad, just do the dailies and the weekly quests, its not a bad grind if you cant do the entire pass in 1 week

[river bay]

I might just be a me thing but I can grins the fortnite BP in like 2 weeks

[ivory raptor]

It's his fault Steven was buffed he should've put a stop to it
Just saying, I would've stopped them from buffing my main to a point of killing at 40% 🤷‍♂️

[haughty forge]

Can't believe hero is the sole reason steven got buffed......
.............

[ivory raptor]

Its all his fault

[haughty forge]

I can't believe this...............

how DARE ue

[spice sapphire]

why is steven so cracked anyways

I think literally the only thing I know about his kit quality in season 1 is that one twitter clip of him down airing, other than that don't know why he's seen as good as he is

[gleaming rivet]

Whats the best perks and combos for steven?

[gleaming rivet]

how do u do a full pass in one week?? Ive done all weekleys and dailys everyday and only on tier 20

[slate carbon]

im saying dont call the grind to complete a pass bad if you're only tier 20 after 1 week

bc they were complaining about the grind being bad

[gleaming rivet]

Oh fr Its been kinda quik

especially since theyre making it so u can get bp xp by playing

[slate carbon]

it has been 1 week and a lot of people are over 20% done with the pass already

[covert forge]

Sorry guys 🙂‍↕️

[red sandal]

any tips for actually ringing people out i can get them to high damage easily but then im stuck j getting them close to the blast zone

[slate carbon]

up air

[red sandal]

nuh uh

[vestal turtle]

sorry my fellow steven mains

steven is def getting some kind of nerf

[topaz nebula]

beta multiversus steven mains are used to him being bad

[vestal turtle]

he wasn’t bad in the beta

[topaz nebula]

he also wasnt good

[vestal turtle]

i been playing steven since day 1

[topaz nebula]

same here

he was way weaker than he is now

[vestal turtle]

steven just was countered by so many characters in beta

[vestal turtle]

steven can kill at low percents now

[topaz nebula]

i remember that he could in beta, but it was way more difficult

[vestal turtle]

and steven is harder to kill now

[red sandal]

would you guys rather have beta steven or current

[topaz nebula]

current

[vestal turtle]

only good thing about beta steven is he could spam up shield without a cooldown like now

[topaz nebula]

i miss beta dashes

[red sandal]

he could cancel his jab which led to some insane combos

[vestal turtle]

and watermelon steven can finally hit

[topaz nebula]

btw, besides collat, ignite and 5%/bubble bounce what you use as your third perk

[vestal turtle]

i use the one that increases melee attack

[topaz nebula]

im using second wind (refresh air ability after ringing out)

[vestal turtle]

that’s good too

also i use well rounded

[topaz nebula]

this one prob for 1v1 and second wind for 2v2

[vestal turtle]

i kinda wish they didn’t add it tho because some characters don’t deserve it

[vestal turtle]

does it only reset up shield

[topaz nebula]

i think all abilities

down special def

[vestal turtle]

it says only air abilities in perk selection

[topaz nebula]

i hope they bring back that perks influence your teammates as well

[slate carbon]

they still do i thought?

[topaz nebula]

im not sure

based on description it doesnt look like it

[slate carbon]

oh its only the team slot that seems to

[topaz nebula]

The Perk system still follows the same general structure of having the player pick their character-specific key Perk that modifies their character in some way, then they pick their Team Perks, Strong Perks, and finally Standard Perks in that order

[topaz nebula]

the good old days of both teammates having collat and dealing 2 damage per bounce

[topaz nebula]

what rank were you, if you dont mind me asking?

[vestal turtle]

around 10k

i quit playing after the last character was added

marvin i think

[topaz nebula]

understandable

near the end, no new people were playing anymore, so you only came across sweats

i was top 500 on steven, which is still one of my proudest moments when it comes to games

[topaz nebula]

S-tier: Arya Stark, Finn The Human, Harley Quinn
A-tier: Banana Guard, Batman, Bugs Bunny, Gizmo, LeBron, Shaggy, Tom And Jerry, Wonder Woman
B-tier: Black Adam, Jake The Dog, Jason, Joker, Morty, Rick, Stripe, Superman, Taz
C-tier: Garnet, The Iron Giant, Marvin The Martian, Steven Universe
D-tier: Reindog, Velma

tier list from 5 days ago

[red sandal]

i used to be top 8 but i think it was more that there were no stevens left than that i was good

cuz i suck now

[slate carbon]

so 2 days after the game launched? also who made that list

is that 1s or 2s

[topaz nebula]

https://www.inverse.com/gaming/multiversus-tier-list-best-characters-ranked-may-2024

Steven is one of the more unique characters in the game right now. They use a variety of buffs and shields to inflict status effects, boost the power of their teammate, block off sections of the stage, protect a teammate, or trap an opponent. They can also heal allies, being one of the few characters with this ability.

But, overall, the kit doesn’t come together quite how we would like and they lack damage and power when compared to other tanks. Additionally, they have very little use in 1v1 matches due to their focus on buffing allies. So, while they can be effective in 2v2 matches, outside of that, someone else is almost always a better choice.

almost every tier list places steven near the bottom

but the tier lists in youtube videos place him at the top

man do I love inconsistency

[vestal turtle]

steven is not C

[slate carbon]

i wouldnt trust random websites to know how to play steven, every twitter and youtube tierlist (usually made by actual players and pros) puts him near the top

[vestal turtle]

iron giant is the best character

[light night]

me and my duo used to use iron giant and i would use steven

and the nair teammate armor was so easy to land he practically had armor the entire time

steven and iron giant was almost on level with velma and iron giant

[raven spindle]

WORD WHERES ZACH 😭

[slate carbon]

hes been on a mental health break for a while now

[raven spindle]

Ohh okay, I won't say anymore then, I hope he's okay.

[verbal sentinel]

Best 1v1 perks?

[hot latch]

I do

On my twt

[crisp escarp]

it took me 10 minutes of scrolling to find it but nice twt feed tho

[hot latch]

Lol

Np

[covert osprey]

Is nair to fair a good kill confirm or should I be using something else

[obsidian crystal]

Fair seems to really only kill at high percents off the side, Stevens main killing tool is upair

You want to be racking up damage and sending your opponents vertically, reading their panic option (jump or airdodge) and delaying your upair accordingly

Up special combos nicely into upair

I like to use the platform created by up special to make that easier, but it's very easy to get ricocheted into it so be careful

Fair can be useful though as a timing mixup over upair when you're juggling your opponent upwards near the corner though

[covert osprey]

Thanks bro

[olive plover]

What's the difference between Steven and tiger millionaire? Steven is a mage but tiger is a tank

[slate carbon]

they were just replacing all instances of support with mage and forgot about steven, but remembered when they did his skins and didnt go back

[olive plover]

Oh lol hope it stays. It's a cute difference

[pine rain]

Idk why it is t fixed

Takes like 5 seconds

[green raven]

Is Steven good to play as?

[deft bolt]

Very good

[winged stump]

they gave Steven Aegis Reflector combos, can't spell Universe without Urien

[ivory raptor]

Broken
Tony gut Steven please

[worn tulip]

Lord, please just give Future/Movie Steven

[wet mulch]

best perks for steven?

[twin dagger]

hi how do i make steven better

he is my favorite character i love steven

[odd flare]

Steven up air is so good

I hope they dont nerf that

[deep grotto]

I just got this game, when is stevens up special useful, or what should I be using his platform shield for?

[obsidian crystal]

I lied fair kills great if your opponent DIs wrong

[topaz saffron]

Imo, up special is a very good tool to get back to stage along with his float. It can be a bit risky sometimes just depends on the situation. You can also use his up special to build up some extra damage along with the collateral perk. I just think it is a really fun move.

[topaz saffron]

Future Steven would be a fire skin 🔥

[worn tulip]

‼️‼️‼️

[oblique ivy]

Dude I’ve wanted that since he was announced

[haughty forge]

We got nerfed

[river bay]

It's not a big change

They just mase down air cancel later

[raven spindle]

Steven Tag variants plz tho?

[haughty forge]

Steven

Aerial Up Attack
~ Sweet spot hitbox delayed 1 frame later to match when Steven has his hands clapped together
Aerial Down Attack
– On-Hit cancel window delayed by 3 frames

[void pilot]

you can still chain dairs

you just need to nair now

[timid mango]

GUYS HE SPITTIN

[worn tulip]

🔥🔥🔥

[oblique ivy]

I do that anyways

[oblique ivy]

Eh I can live with it

It wasn’t like he was gutted

[pine rain]

its not big lol

steven feels the same lol

[covert osprey]

Can someone explain to me what the nerf to his down attack entails

[red sandal]

is there a reason you lose half your stamina when dodging into dair

[lament widget]

i can crash games with this guy

[slate carbon]

takes longer to dodge out of hitting dair

[river bay]

Basically you have to wait a bit longer before you can DC with ot

[trim scaffold]

True

Like this patch is lightwork compared to the Beta nerfs.

Throwback to when Watermelon cooldown didn't wait for the Melon to die.
Or when Rose Gaze needed 8 hits instead of 10.
Or when Dair Loops were even easier to do because Nair always sent outwards.

[trim scaffold]

Yeah this didn't deserve to get unnoticed.
You're honestly spittin.

INB4 the Bounce Bubble Perk makes Steven's Side-b shields reflect projectiles while being a multihit.

Yeah that's probably not gonna happen.

[strong rain]

It was big imo

It makes his combos a little harder again almost all his dmg

It isn’t huge but definitely big

Huge nerfs would be to nair and up air

[rich rock]

is steven really a mage and tank? can he complete both class missions?

[obsidian coral]

do anyone can give mt some hint to how to use the steven platforms?

i mean

i actually know the combo with the platform

but im not to much consistent in doing it

[covert osprey]

I've completed tank and mage missions with Steven, so yeah

[hot latch]

Guess so

Plus he can heal so idk

[prime heart]

Steven's only move is Nair

[tawdry maple]

opp

[twin dagger]

Hi I need help improving Steven can someone help me

[timid mango]

yo im facing a steven in bracket in like 5 minutes

jason player

fck do i do against this kid

[slate carbon]

steven is much faster but hes super stubby

dont let him set up his melon it heals him and his melon can interupt you

he likes to combo you on his shields but his shields have like 15 hp, just break them and you'll be in a much better spot

hes very much a whiff punisher so for the love of god dont miss

hes very weak to super aggressive players bc of all of his startup, dont let him breathe

[timid mango]

1-1 rn

no clue what the fck im doing but i think its working

[slate carbon]

hes also super weak to armor

so try raging often

[timid mango]

good think jason has so much armor amirite

[slate carbon]

do NOT be above him

his up air can kill very easily

dont let him clap your *ss

[timid mango]

holy shi im shaking, that mightve been my closest set in bracket so far. ill post the match in here later, as i would LOVE feedback from u guys to improve because i dont feel like i fully understand this matchup at all. i won 2-1 somehow, but i dont know how. especially considering how the beginning went and that i know that i made some big mistakes

now i have to play against a finn player anyways

bruh.

[slate carbon]

i can post it in the SU discord for you

[timid mango]

lol, 3stocked the finn first game

[slate carbon]

tbh its one of steven's strengths that nobody plays him so a lot of people just dont know the match up

[timid mango]

ive got 130 hours in the game now and i havent seen a single martin or velma

they got those characters hidden i swear

[slate carbon]

i think velma is trash now and i couldnt tell you about marvin

[timid mango]

im 2-0 now, why is the finn worse than the steven

by a LOT

last game against finn, then 3-0 unless i troll

oh wait, the finn swapped to bugs

doable

https://www.start.gg/tournament/multiversus-mayhem-3/event/1v1s/brackets/1679829/2500906

this tourney btw

nice 3-0 now

now against shaggy

very rough

[vestal prawn]

i play marvin, hes fun

[timid mango]

we gotta 1v1 sometime, i genuinely dont know his moveset

[hardy geyser]

Best Steven perks?

And is there a Steven discord I can join?

[slate carbon]

there is but its bugged and new members cant see anything

we have no idea why or how to fix

[hardy geyser]

Really?

Did u guys try removing the bot?

[slate carbon]

i think thats the problem

[haughty forge]

Is message history on?

ah

[hardy geyser]

Or removing the needing a certain role?

Those should have been these first two option to remove….

[slate carbon]

im not a mod but i think they did try that

[hardy geyser]

And the server still doesn’t work?

[slate carbon]

people have told me they still cant see

[hardy geyser]

Yeesh

It has to be a permission thing

They have to fix

Can they manually give ppl roles?

[slate carbon]

new people just dont show up in the members list (at least for me)

[hardy geyser]

???

Don’t u guys have mods?

Or owners?

They can’t just manually add the roles?

It’s no way the server is that bugged there deffo a fix

@slate carbon

[slate carbon]

the owner said hes tried a bunch and the mods for some reason dont have mod perms

the ownership of the server changed like 3 times

so its kinda weird

[hardy geyser]

How do the mods not have mod perms???

They should just make a new server

If MvS doesn’t die

There going to be more Steven universe players

In the long run it’s just better to make a new one

Because wtf is going on

[slate carbon]

this is a great joke

[hardy geyser]

Isn’t Steven A tier?

[slate carbon]

hes def getting nerfed soon tho
although tracker.gg says he has a 2.6% pickrate in 2s (2.7% in 1s)

but tracker.gg says Iron Giant has 2.2% and 1.7% pickrate so

[hardy geyser]

Steven doesn’t need a nerf

He’s beatable

WW needs a nerf

So damn annoying

[slate carbon]

beatable doesnt mean fine, WW is beatable but shes not fine

also this is Steven Universe, the devs are nerfing him regardless

[pine rain]

Theres a Su discord???

Can i get the link

[pine rain]

Devs going to ignore wonder women trust

[slate carbon]

there is but its bugged and new members cant see anything
we have no idea why or how to fix

[hardy geyser]

Tbf Steven is just a place holder main till another character I like more joins the roster

But WW needs a nerf

So annoying

So is shaggy

[slate carbon]

yeah bc she's a DC character and they all think she's attractive

[hardy geyser]

Idk why characters in this game are more annoying than brawlhalla or smash

[slate carbon]

bc PFG are bad at their jobs

[pine rain]

I can help

[slate carbon]

you'll be a new member who cant see anything

[pine rain]

Just make an admin perm so i can look at alls server settings

Once i get home i can take a look at it

[hardy geyser]

Ppl keep blaming WB for everything when PFG just sucks

[slate carbon]

i dont think they're gonna trust a random person with admin perms

[slate carbon]

WB is to fault for all the monetization
PFG is to fault for the gameplay

[hardy geyser]

Half the of stuff that hits me

Shouldn’t

This game by far has the worst hitboxes in ever seen

This game feels like an alpha

[pine rain]

Yea the hit boxes are really bad

I find it hard to melee as steven

[haughty forge]

Kinda is actually

I assume the switch to unreal engine 5 and having to remake the game from scratch made less time to make new content

[slate carbon]

its also kinda funny how they made like 2 good gameplay decisions (parry and dash attack) and the rest made the game worse

[haughty forge]

Which might be why the game feels so unfinished

[deep grotto]

Wait steven's getting nerfed? bro I js started maining him 😞

hes the most fun character imo

[slate carbon]

we dont know for sure but its very likely since a lot of people rank him highly, he has a high winrate, etc.

[deep grotto]

damn I see, he could lowkey use a small nerf imo but I really hope he doesn't get nerfed into the ground

idk these devs but ik so many of my mains in other fighting games became unplayable bc they were slightly stronger than the rest

[slate carbon]

they literally dont care about steven as a character
in every promo hes in he has something wrong with his mouth or just looks really weird in general
all his skins have different skin tones and some sort of issue with the mouth
he felt awful in the beta

didnt even bother to get someone who sounded even slightly like Zach Callison like they did for Lebron, the Gremlins, etc.

[deep grotto]

sht I suspected it but was being optimistic, haven't seen any promos but I was tweaking at how incredibly off they were from the voice of steven bc I'm a massive fan of the show, garnet seems incredibly off too unfortunately, like lowkey the whole steven universe part just seems rushed as a whole, its lowkey so disappointing

[slate carbon]

its bc SU is the least beloved part of the whole roster, save for Black Adam, so the devs ahve no attachment to it, Tony himself admitted it was the only show he hadnt seen prior to working on MVS

Garnet's whole personality is "I sang Stronger than You"
and Steven's is "I'm a little kid"

[deep grotto]

yeah exactly, I mean I get the least beloved part bc idek another person irl who knows what SU is but barely anything about either of them is even slightly reminiscient of the actual characters, they just feel like random templates that they slapped character models and shtty voicelines on and called it a day, I was gen surprised when I first got the game bc I didn't think SU was popular enough to get put in a game like this but atp I would've preferred they use different characters instead of butchering SU

[flat stag]

This has nothing to do with his moveset

but I hope Steven gets a model update

he looks oddly terrifying ingame

proportions and overall size

maybe remodel and revoice him to be adult Steven from future

I dunno

[slate carbon]

Why would they do that for free when they can charge us $20 for a skin that does that

[flat stag]

cuz this steven is super ugly

[odd crow]

Chat on the leaderboard

I’m 3 place with Steven

[odd crow]

2nd place now

[odd crow]

Also beat someone on twitch they said Steven takes no skill whatsoever

And my guy plays bugs 💀

[ivory raptor]

Both of your characters can be busted in 1s

Steven can just mash uair and theres not much you can do about it

Not with this stupid fixed 30 frame input buffer

Ass game

[iron remnant]

masher spotted

[odd crow]

I don’t play bugs

I play morty and Steven

I never get to use uair because I suck but when I get it I like it

[ivory raptor]

Because its OP

I'd say it might even be better than Jokers and Jokers uair is literally the best part of his entire kit

[tribal basalt]

that water melon steven perk gotta be the most annoying perk ever

that watermelon steven takes up the entire screen and the camera on 1v1 is already kinda zoomed in

[covert osprey]

"there's nothing you can do about it" mfers when parry

[ivory raptor]

Parry isn't possible to do on reaction because its window is VERY strict and theres input delay

[covert osprey]

Ok but Steven can only get so many true up airs, so if you're expecting an untrue upair, parry

Or you can just, you know, dodge

[ivory raptor]

Dodge also doesnt work because the game says "dodged" and then you just get hit anyways

[covert osprey]

If you can't dodge Steven up air spam (or move being spammed for that matter) that's on you lmao

[odd crow]

Fr

Dodge works

[raven spindle]

Word

[ivory raptor]

If only that were true, but unfortunately, no matter what happens or what the attack is, dodging gives me a "dodged" pop up and then I explode instantly instead because MVS would be better off being developed by literal monkeys

[odd crow]

I swear to me nothing ever happend

It’s so sad seeing people think this low of the developers

[covert osprey]

Really putting that "worst" in your name

[ivory raptor]

Well maybe the developers should try idk, making a playable game?

[odd crow]

Idk what to say developing a game is hard is the game unfinished with bugs of course

[ivory raptor]

Xbox players cant even play 90% of the time, the games balancing might be the very worst thing under the sun, the servers are laggy, the game has performance issues for a lot of people regardless of how good their console/PC is, and they some how made a P2W PvE mode

[ivory raptor]

Game development is hard I'm not gonna deny that but they had a year of beta testing and then a year after that

It shouldn't be a WORSE game

[odd crow]

Everything can go wrong in any time

[ivory raptor]

They seem to just be trying to copy other successful games to some degree and pray that works

[odd crow]

Even before release there is no way they didn’t beta test

[slate carbon]

tbf they had to remake it from scratch when they ported it to UE5

[ivory raptor]

They didnt have to port it to UE5

They were just wasting time
