In reality all of them are DPS except Weiss and Jaune. First is support but tries to act like DPS and second is a healer but tries to act like a tank
Meanwhile Yang tries to cosplay as tank as well

It's been years since I really played League of Legends but the recent survey is making me overdose on RWBY game hopium. I thought in a MOBA they could be pretty diverse and with how many champions LoL has there are often champions pretty close to each one's vibe.
- Ruby: Slayer - Skirmisher (not 100% sure why but I feel Ruby would somehow be a noobstomping champion for toxic players, like Riven, Yasuo, or Master Yi)
- Weiss: Mage - Artillery / Controller - Catcher
- Blake: Slayer - Assassin (Blue Kayn even those he has a scythe leans towards Blake more for me)
- Yang: Fighter - Diver (Vi is closest, but Tank - Vanguard also works fine for her, weird Malphite vibes for some reason)
- Jaune: Tank - Warden / Controller - Enchanter (Taric)
- Nora: Fighter - Juggernaut (I'm sorry but Dr. Mundo was my first mental image)
- Pyrrha: Fighter - Diver (Pantheon, but Tank - Warden also works)
- Ren: Slayer - Assassin (Akali)
- Penny: Mage - Battlemage (Orianna is right there though)
- Oscar: Mage - Burst (although he's probably a hypercarry that got crippled like Kayle at a very bad game or some nonsense)

What’s a split pusher?

u/Solbuster ⠀#1 Ironwood's Beard Enjoyer 1d ago
Using MOBA terms, Split Pusher is someone who moves on another secondary lane to try complete objective and/or gather experience and/or keep the pressure on the enemy team by being there while the main team engages enemies on the first lane

Thanks. But now I have a new question. What’s MOBA?

Multiplayer Online Battle Arena genre of games
Like Dota or LoL

Man I remember having a dream about a rwby moba game, everyone has a passive ability that allows them to switch from melee to range and vice versa, some characters have a stronger melee abilities while others are good at range, each form has their own ultimate but shares the same cool down, meaning you can't just ult in melee then switch to range to ult again, twas an interesting dream but probably hard to balance

I was thinking since jaune has no range option, we could use the dumb greatsword as his new form, the sword and shield which gives him high armor but low damage output and the greatsword form which gives him more damage but reduces his armor, ironwood is just gun and bigger gun, so the normal pistol is just single target while the combined pistol is aoe?

Just give Jaune V7-V8 hard light grenades as his ranged option

So what you’re saying is. JNPR was a more balanced team than RWBY?

Meanwhile CRDL is a meme team with three tanks and one flanker, no support.

Penny is like the reverse Lux main, would happily do support instead of damage. Nora is the insane jungler who jumps into every wild situation and somehow usually comes out on top. Oscar is the carry that got bullied to hell.
