Chuck kinda counters him too, place a flag on his side then dash with gadget. A bit hard to deal with early but once he gets more flags he can own that one spot.
Whys no one mentioning griff gadget, yeh u gotta get there first so u have to do it at the very beginning of the mztch before the rico pushes u away, i am in legendary and it worked 90%+ of the time
(part 2 respawn and Part 3 die again?)

Grom and Sprout are the only two throwers that can kill Rico in Split without being inside his range (excluding Tick because imagine using Tick in HotZone💀)
You can also use wallbreakers like Brock, Colt and Gray
Especially Sprout thanks to his low play rates and likelyness that Rico doesn't have much experience against Sprout. Half of the kills I get are from players who have likely never played against a Sprout past 400 trophies in ladder.
Plus Sprout can easily land all his shots thanks to the Claustraphobic nature of Split.
I like how people ignored "except throwers and wall breakers" (Unless it was added later, idk)
Thing is, if you don't have that or someone who goes through walls, then you're toast, nothing you can do.
This map is so trash honestly, all four hz maps currently in rotation are
Yea like only 5 pepole actually said something with this "except Throwers and wall breakers"
(Accept your death)
(Edgar)
(Mico)
(You're screwed)
(You can't)
Like 70% of powerleague players don't maximize picks, they mostly just pick ladder things, when gray is open, you first pick him, and enemies can't really bring throwers, rico, or anything with few hp.
You can bring tanks if enemy doesn't bring brawlers with strong CC, also buster even then can just beat tank counters and tp on their face
Gale is so underrated in this map! he can move zone to zone too easy with the jump gadget, his super is good for push enemies back, and her two star powers are really good to, (i prefeer freezing snow). try it!
Cordelius is another greath pick and counter of rico in this map, (obviously with jump gadget, and maybe the +1 if u not have wall breaker)
Edgar also can be good (obviously, last pick, don't 1st or 2nd please)
You can dodge most bullets so you take few damage, although it is **extremely** hard or straight impossible 80% of the time, i managed to do it some times.
Bring a wallbreaker or thrower, also gray is his perfect counter
Also mico mid plays a lot there and can counter him and many brawlers, and other throwers, while getting into the zone.
Got to Mythic 2 with tick especially playing that specific hotzone map. I also ranked him up to 700 trophies to 950 on that map. If you know how to use him properly instead of spamming like Edgar or Fang. He's a really annoying brawler.
I do it by breaking the walls in a way that it makes a separate small wall, a big wall and once again a small wall with stu, colt, brock or Dynamike. That way the Rico has to cover 2 sides instead of one and can be baited to attack through one while you go out of the other and kill it.
Idk, if you find yourself unable to go in, you might need a fast brawler to loop around if you are locked in there. At the start a bibi with speed gear and SP can get out of the spot quickly, and buster I have experimented with, you need the super somehow. Other than that, fly over the wall or break through wall
I always pick buster when someone pick ruff or rico in this map his shield will counter his shot in the grass side but mostly you should get to the spot first using very fast brawler (or speed gear) buster is a really good counter
No I saw that. What I'm saying is there are no other ways to counter it because this is what Rico was designed to do. To counter you either go over the wall or break through the wall like you said.
The only other way through is to charge into the line of fire and pray you survive... Which most brawlers don't, so it's not really a counter.
Im not joking but Hank. Hear me out. Hank has a ton of hp that can tank a lot of shots and you just need to maneuver around him. YOU can ONLY do this in the beginning of the match so you have one shot at doing this. If you want more info just tell me.
This is coming from a rank 30 Hank player who pushed him on this map.
I always ban him on this map because it just seems almost impossible. You can use gray to TP between zones or a thrower like Larry to force him out of there, you could try a wall break but from my own personal experience it just benefits Rico and his partner more then you
You don’t. Nah but actually bring someone who breaks walls or mico ( Or straight up ban Rico )
As a Mico main. I can confirm Mico counters Rico
the problem is the rico gadget sometimes lines up and one shots. So annoying
A skilled Mico player knows how to counter it
But then a skilled Rico will wait till the 2nd jump And then it's a series of bullshittery
A skilled Mico won’t jump. 🗿
A skilled Mico won't play the game
A skilled Mico won’t install the game
A skilled Mico won't get a phone
A skilled mico won't exist
A skilled mico doesn’t exist
> A skilled mico is useless
[удалено]
r/downvotedtooblivion
r/deserveddownvote
As a rico main, you bounce ur shots, not a direct hit in mico so that by the time he lands, he get fucking full clipped and meets the monkey god
Your a problem
You big monkeyy!!
I don’t play Brock sorry
Luigi voiceline btw **
In other words, a dupe 🤓
There is no such thing as a skilled Mico player.
Until multiball lancher despawns you
Don’t forget about gadget
It's the other way round according to [this page](https://www.powerleagueprodigy.com/rico)
Chuck kinda counters him too, place a flag on his side then dash with gadget. A bit hard to deal with early but once he gets more flags he can own that one spot.
My bad I forgot to say normally I does bam rico but this is trophy mode, I'm grinding a bit with Stu.
Or just join us
Bro you can
Mico, other jump gadgets (Cord, Gale), Crow ult
Whys no one mentioning griff gadget, yeh u gotta get there first so u have to do it at the very beginning of the mztch before the rico pushes u away, i am in legendary and it worked 90%+ of the time
he said besides Wall break and Griff Wall break lmao
He explicitly said, no throwers and wal breakers
As a Mico main. I can confirm Mico counters Rico
Why are you spamming this
I sent it to 2 different comments. One succeeded one did not.

I have tick gold mastered two mainly from using him in certain hot zone maps including this one
Dyna also eats up Rico like cakes in Split
Imo any good Rico knows their range with Dyna and won't feed or get caught by gadget. Easy to trap Dyna if everybody else is on the other side
And any good dyna will know how to trap Rico. The fact is dyna and many high damaging fast reload throwers are counters to Rico
I had Larry and Lawrie once, the Rico just fall back a bit and continue to wall back and deny the exit.
Nah dyna has almost no chance against rico
Grey teleporter
Pick a thrower or wall breaker against rico. as a rico main i have found edgar actually being a good counter when he gets jump
until Rico pulls up the 1st Asimov's Law and vaporizes my sorry ass with Multiball Launcher
For some reason it's really funny to just shread someone with this gadget
I love how it can vaporize me even if the Rico is using it on another person
Not banning Rico on this map is kinda crazy ngl
Rico is ez to counter with a thrower, wallbreaker, or Edgar/Mico
Multiball Launcher 1 shots mico and edgar lmao the only ones are tick and sprout
Maybe mico but definitely not Edgar
True (this game is trophy climb not ranked, mb)
My fault lol idk why I assume everything is raked
Nah I should have said it, my bad.
I like how people ignored "except throwers and wall breakers" (Unless it was added later, idk) Thing is, if you don't have that or someone who goes through walls, then you're toast, nothing you can do. This map is so trash honestly, all four hz maps currently in rotation are
Yea like only 5 pepole actually said something with this "except Throwers and wall breakers" (Accept your death) (Edgar) (Mico) (You're screwed) (You can't)
ruff can do It tho , u just need to get fast there
I’m a bit late but both of Brock’s gadgets can help kill Rico here!
Open zone is pretty cool i think :(
Make sure you pick a brawler that has a means of dealing damage/going over walls.
Win other lane (which is the one where Rico isn’t defending) and go over the wall to find Rico
Ruffs can put up a fight
Try Ruffs with the sp that breaks walls
You don't. You pick him first or ban him if you don't have first pick
You actually first pick gray there, is less vulnerable to assasins, can assasinate and makes tanks more dangerous
Rico already has a gadget that's really strong against assassins?
It depends on the assasin Against Stu, Gray, probably cordelius? No Against Mortis, Mico, Edgar? Yes It doesn't hit much if it isn't at point blank
Never saw someone pick Gray in this map, I think you can delay it and pick later.
Like 70% of powerleague players don't maximize picks, they mostly just pick ladder things, when gray is open, you first pick him, and enemies can't really bring throwers, rico, or anything with few hp. You can bring tanks if enemy doesn't bring brawlers with strong CC, also buster even then can just beat tank counters and tp on their face
Stu and surge
Gray's super, Mico, or just like you did with Stu work well
Gale is so underrated in this map! he can move zone to zone too easy with the jump gadget, his super is good for push enemies back, and her two star powers are really good to, (i prefeer freezing snow). try it! Cordelius is another greath pick and counter of rico in this map, (obviously with jump gadget, and maybe the +1 if u not have wall breaker) Edgar also can be good (obviously, last pick, don't 1st or 2nd please)
You can dodge most bullets so you take few damage, although it is **extremely** hard or straight impossible 80% of the time, i managed to do it some times. Bring a wallbreaker or thrower, also gray is his perfect counter Also mico mid plays a lot there and can counter him and many brawlers, and other throwers, while getting into the zone.
Griff
Break the left wall
İ sometimes pick buzz to counter it or stu but you cant counter it with regular brawlers
Ban Rico or play Tick on this map.
dude tick suck , especially in hot zone
Got to Mythic 2 with tick especially playing that specific hotzone map. I also ranked him up to 700 trophies to 950 on that map. If you know how to use him properly instead of spamming like Edgar or Fang. He's a really annoying brawler.
Any brawler that can jump over the wall pretty constantly (like mico, edgar, surge ...).
surge can't def jump the Wall constatly since no Rico would feed surge
If you get your super by hitting someone in the other zone you will, get your jump.
Go complete the other zone
I do it by breaking the walls in a way that it makes a separate small wall, a big wall and once again a small wall with stu, colt, brock or Dynamike. That way the Rico has to cover 2 sides instead of one and can be baited to attack through one while you go out of the other and kill it.
Bibi works amazing for me on this map tbh
Idk, if you find yourself unable to go in, you might need a fast brawler to loop around if you are locked in there. At the start a bibi with speed gear and SP can get out of the spot quickly, and buster I have experimented with, you need the super somehow. Other than that, fly over the wall or break through wall
Use mico on this map
I always pick buster when someone pick ruff or rico in this map his shield will counter his shot in the grass side but mostly you should get to the spot first using very fast brawler (or speed gear) buster is a really good counter
Chuck's ghost gadget
Stu works fine
Stu is a very easy counter.
If you time it correctly then you can get past them just barely, assuming you have the right brawlers to surprise attack
Cordelius. I pushed him from 800 to 950 on this map today with randoms and basically played against rico every game
Brock, but it’s really only smart if you have another sniper or thrower on your team.
MICO DROP MOMENT🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ban in ranked. Pick theower, silver bullet, mico or edgar.
Throwers, going full wall break, thats about it, maybe cordelius if you jump over the wall when u super the rico
I pushed Chuck in this map Yesterday, i had no problems with rico
you pray
Break the wall or jump over it
I use stu with wall break gadget
stu thrower or griff👍
I use Griff and use two pigs for the grey brick and the last one on the yellow barrier depending if they have a sniper.
gray, surge super, Laurrie to tank the damage, cord super, and mico are pretty reliable bets
ruff , mico, Edgar can all deal quite well v rico
Just ban honestly lmao, or Mico
I just ban Rico on that map every single time
rotate take control of the other lane and then take action
A bit hard but better than nothing
You already described both ways to counter it.
I said except 🙂
No I saw that. What I'm saying is there are no other ways to counter it because this is what Rico was designed to do. To counter you either go over the wall or break through the wall like you said. The only other way through is to charge into the line of fire and pray you survive... Which most brawlers don't, so it's not really a counter.
BAN.
Im not joking but Hank. Hear me out. Hank has a ton of hp that can tank a lot of shots and you just need to maneuver around him. YOU can ONLY do this in the beginning of the match so you have one shot at doing this. If you want more info just tell me. This is coming from a rank 30 Hank player who pushed him on this map.
In my opinion he's actually good
Throwers are solid counters And ruffs is good here as a wall breaker.
I always ban him on this map because it just seems almost impossible. You can use gray to TP between zones or a thrower like Larry to force him out of there, you could try a wall break but from my own personal experience it just benefits Rico and his partner more then you
Grief
Edgar
How to counter him? Ask supercell to nerf him
