I think in one of the games dc has similar to rivals that Hal is actually a support.
I HAVE HIM! (lowkey i am too much of a simp... I just outed myself)
Listen Anon
Listen
You just poked my hurt scale, I'm sorry for the Wall of text below.
This is my BIGGEST pet peeve ever when it comes to JL's strategy because the strategies (presumably made by Batman) are always stupid as fuck
Green Lanterns are perfect SUPPORTS and Tank
There are heavy hitters, and there are stealth units, but like, that's it??? I swear to God, they just all fly towards the nearest big bad and hope for the best. One by one, too, like a bunch of morons.
Green Lanterns are the perfect supports because of the versatility of their skills; they can create shields, pick up their fallen comrades, transport important objects and even people, open portals, apply debuffs, and disrupt the enemies' formation. EVERYTHING.
AND DC JUST LET THEM SHOOT BEAMS??? BEAMS?????????
BEAMS??????
Listen, they can even HEAL if our DC Enemies game decides to add Kyle Rayner in with his White Lantern form. (Hal can, too, but I just think he's more adept at keeping himself in battle, and not healing others) (So realistically, he should have a passive that heals himself)
AND NORMAL DC IN COLLAB EVENTS JUST LET THEM SHOOT BEAMS AND DO ROCK PAPER SCISSORS
Listen, anon, I have a lot of thoughts on this as a fps player (i know... a wibu, and a fps gamer, I am at the bottom of the barrel, but like-)
My thoughts about Hal's skill set in a fps shooter like Ovw and MR below the cut, very long, so beware
I talked a lot about other games so yea, it would probably only makes sense if you have played Overwatch and Marvel Rival before
Hal should be similar to Invisible Woman in Marvel Rival mixed with Brigitte in Overwatch. As in, he should be a shield support made to peel for other players with high capability for damage and self-sustain with a LONG cooldown because his skills are OP.
The primary weapon is short-range, like Brigitte's. Secondary weapon should also be a bit like shield bash, but like, he forms a pair of hands to push the enemy away and cause damage on the way.
Healing is AOE like Inspire whenever he lands a hit. I don't want him to have high healing too much, because he's not really famous for it, so healing through inspiring people is more canon (both in personality and canon story). This healing passive applies to him faster. And he should have another passive trait where he resists CC by 50% or is immune to CC every 35 seconds or something, (or an extra life when he receives lethal damage) (This passive is called "Indomitable Will" lol)
His skills should be creating a shield for his allies, but the mechanics should be similar to Sigma or Ramattra's shields, not Invis's, because then it would be too easy lol.
And for the supplementary damage/cc/movement skill, I think he should have mid-to-high movement. I think he should be able to fly, but not too fast. Like Ultron's flying speed. Also, gravity should affect him less than others (should lowkey be a passive for all space heroes, including Carol, Sinestro, anyone from the space mythos)
His Ultimate can vary. Not gonna lie, he can do too much stuff; it's hard to pinpoint what his ult should do. But since he's an excellent fighter also I think he should get to be a damage dealer during his ult as a treat:
Ultimate, "Emerald Knight": Similar to Captain America + Brigitte. He turns into a semi-tank (off-tank) during his ult's duration. He forms an armour around himself; his weapon is now a big ass sword, and he plunges forward and pushes back enemies upon impact. More enemies = More extra health created for himself. Dealing damage creates more shield. ('Inspire' effect is x1,5 during his ult) For 8 seconds, he's a purely brawl tank. After the ult, his shield and extra health slowly fade. If he dies during the ult, his death will still only occur after the ult ends. Effectively immortal during those 8 seconds. (can only be stopped with CC)
Damn, I made him a little too no skill LOL.
If I am being honest, he can easily have Gambit's kind of skill set, where the players get to choose his fighting style, either full support or damage support.
Kyle, lowkey, should function like Adam Warlock. High damage. Revival Ultimate. But he should like, can only have one slow levitated jump for mobility.
Guy should function like a brawl tank with his bat and extreme self-sustain ability. He can have his Red Lantern ability to switch up a bit. Bullshit it into 'create shield for his own organs' or something. Would ironically eat as a peel tank. He can do I trust him.
John should function like Groot, focusing more on creating constructs and space control for team fights instead of supporting or peeling.
(sorry I haven't thought of other GLs much, I am more familiar with the Corpsment lol) (Jessica can be DPS, I think she suits DPS more) (NEVER MAKE WOMEN SUPPORTS JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE WOMAN I LOATHE THAT STEREOTYPE)
Hal should be able to team up with all three of the remaining Corpsmen by giving bonus health to their construct, amped healing, amped damage, or reduced cooldown on construct. Wait, but it's lowkey boring. Or OR team-up gives them an extra life. It can switch to 'Parallax infection' where their skills do true damage.
You can do anything with Green Lanterns, MAKE THEM SUPPORTS
Like I swear to God, like, with Batman he can do stealthy sh so make him an assassin, sure. Wonder Woman, TANK. Next question? Aquaman? Crowd control tank or support. Superman? Flying tank or DPS, he cannot heal for sh. Billy Batson? TANK. IF THE SUPPORT SPOTS ARE EMPTY, SHOVE THE GREEN LANTERNS INTO THEM.
Superman is weak to Kryptonite? Quick, Hal, create a barrier around him! Batman needs to escape from the enemies' backline? Quick, Hal, follows him and supports his ass. Wonder Woman wants to use Ult? Quick, Hal, use your skills to make sure she doesn't die using her ult and also fly after her into the backline. Or better yet, Double ult!
GREEN LANTERNS ARE BETTER AS SUPPORTS AND TANKS IF WE EVER GET DC ENEMIES! I SAY WHAT I SAY!
I'm sorry you have unlocked the Pandora box, anon :(
I have a lot of thoughts
I just think that no one really cares since FPS games and Pregnant Hal enjoyers don't align much lol
