do we have a sex tier list yet?
>>556601443Why do people complain about shooter characters in a shooter game?
>>556611868Like being good at sex or how much you want to have sex with them?
>>556611590i think a few members of melee creeps/abrahams would still have itbut probably in an igl role
>>556611927same reason why they complain about graves even though she has zero range
>>556611961being good at sex
>>556611868>no Graveswokeslop
>>556611927same reason why people complain about stuns and CC in a moba
>>>556611739There is nothing else. They ruined/killed OW and rivals is dumb cape shit.
>>556611994possible, but competitive deadlock is literally around 100 people. that's nothing compared to what real esports leagues are like. we don't really know what god level deadlock play is yet, and probably won't until like 2030
>>556612019Mina is definitely number 1
>>556611696Based. Can’t wait until I can play graves 90% of matches.
>>556612006>buys stamina mastery and juggernaut and gets in your face
>>556611868
>maxxing ability range on Graves' 2 in brawlMy statline isn't as good as when I focus more on gun items but it is very funny
>>556612116there's a new hero shooter every month.fuck off and let SMNC 2 thrive instead of trying to turn everything into your dogshit turnstile genre.
>>556612213pocket is probably asexual
>>556611927Because it feels like ass when, in a game with 100 characters abilities and items, it still just boils down to who clicks heads better. It's boring.
>>556612019Geist would be SSS+ tier100 years of partying with a young body. I think sex with her would ruin other women for you>>556612160Mina would just lie there and expect you to do everything
arf arf buff silver woof woof!
>>556612213i feel like infernus would be good at sex if he wasnt on fire
>>556611994Lightbringer and thats it imo
>play graves>FEEL like im doing nothing most of the match>still have good stats post gameI like playing her but I feel like I do nothing except force people to rotate to the lane I'm in.
>>556612282Maybe you should use your abilities better to overcome them clicking on you.
>>556611868D tier: all female characters because they have small tits.
This game will never succeed as an esport Impossible to follow
>>556612282if only there was a way to stop somebody from shooting you...
>>556612263More people need to rangemaxx and throw it out length ways down a lane.>>556612412Esports are a meme.
>>556612268Nah. The Moba part of this game is ass and I will continue to keep saying its ass until it stops being ass.
>>556612289I think the female top spot is contended by Mina, Silver, Geist and Holliday.
>>556612412>Impossible to followThat's how I felt when I watched a moba for the first time. League and Dota seem to be doing fine though.
>>556612201>t3 and a t4 movement greensounds balanced to me, that's very expensive in a real match.
>>556612412Its already successful as an esport imoThere is really only 2 esports, counterstrike and dota. Everything else is fake and marketing
>>556612546>vegan enters a steakhouse>complains about the steakfat retard.
>>556612412>esports
Anyone got the chat bubble screenshot in this in better res?
k-dash or stamastery on silver
>>556612412you will never be the black women poster
https://youtu.be/RSL6KqWKFvo?si=pQriRpgpCsZhJF1b
>>556612717stam you have a reload already
>>556612546Kill yourself
>>556612412>This game will never succeed as an esportAnd thats a good thing. Most games turn to fucking dogshit when it gets a big hyper competitive scene and the devs start to balance around the .02% of the player base and how they have reaction times of a ferret on cocaine.
>>556612615>teams dropping out of riot's leagues because they're trying to run it like the NFL where you have to buy-in and follow strict regulations>all blizzard esports died because they tried to partner with organizations to copy the NFL model>valve esports still thriving and are the originals that all these clone games came from
>>556612289we need a celeste dance gif
i kinda miss how good paradox used to be but i still think she's fineif anything it'll be annoying if she keeps getting nerfed over being popular in tournaments or high ranks or some shit, because i think she's just a character that properly rewards the player for being good at the videogame in nearly every aspect without being insane broken good. like correctly pulling off combos, good aim tracking and good movement/positioning
I can't engage for shit and I can't solo. My player damage is always pitiful.All I can do is lane and farm.
>>556612780I want to, and I really should, but God doesn't give with both hands.
>>556612740I can't wait for there to be HMVs of Deadlock heroes
>>556612832>the devs start to balance around the .02% of the player baseThey already do this, yes they're retarded
>>556612853It’s because outsider old rich dudes get advised to buy esports teams as newgen sports teams and treat them like regular sports teams and it doesn't work and is incredibly unprofitable. There's tons of stuff documenting this.
>>556612950I was there too. all I could do was farm and push. if you pick something to focus on each game you'll improve over time.
What exactly is Venator's role on a team?
>stop playing in 2024>reinstall in 2026>vindicta is still AIDS
>>556613049Ranged damage dealer with his gun?
>>556613049Vindicta except can't fly
>>556613049Glass canon (not the item) ultbot. His 1-3 are lane skills.
>>556613049hes just a boring gun hero like 2/3rds of the rest of the fucking cast.
>>556613049hero deleter
>>556613049shooting the enemy.
>>556613049What if vindicta lost any and all utility in exchange for a gigabuffed ult.
>>556613145They want to attract the hero shooter and COD audience by giving them braindead m1gger characters like Haze and Venator
>>556613214>>556613134Ok and what if he doesn't delete heroes when he ults? You're literally playing 5v6.
How am I supposed to use Victor 2?I heard he was hard but I literally just unga into their team and win every fight
>>556613298Correct
>>556612853>Thriving>Propped up artificially by steam bucks and still bleeding moneylol
>>556613145>>556613278There's like 6 "gun heroes" in the game.
>>556613298Yeah okay? That’s the trade off for being an ult bot. He's not the only one.
>>556613142Is that Mo or Krill's
>>556613392You can name any hero you consider to be an "ultbot" and they're infinitely more useful than he is outside of his ult. His 1-3 are literally fucking worthless.
>>556613370And you see at least 4 of them every fucking game.
>>556613439both
>>556613049Motivation to make me play better if her promises to let me do this to him if we win or lose.
>>556613318>I'm killing everyone and winning, how do I use his abilityWell I would just continue doing what you're doing, anon.A serious answer is to use it for cleansing and try to pop it when below half health as often as possible because that's how you maximize your healing to self damage ratio.
I think Deadlock's closed beta absolutely need to come out this year, but do yall think they can actually pull it off? It's made serious progress since 2024, but there's actually still so much that needs to balanced and cleaned up about the game I'm starting to get worried they're not progressing fast enough.And no, it's not negativity bait. I genuinely want this game to succeed, but the timeline is looking great. Maybe they're go into crunch time and kick ass during summer?
>>556613145As someone that can't aim for shit and thus avoids m1 characters, it's more like 1/3rd.
>>556613142apollo, geist and graves should be lowerdoorman higher
>>556611696are there captions in the game? or is there a way to see the lines as just text?
>>556605202as a shitter who can only play lash, I have some basic shit that might help it clickLash's MO for the lane is to not die, henpeck, and get cheeky slams until you get 2 points in your slam, which is when you can start erasing people. Never be alone unless you're crashing a wave with nobody around, you are basically dead weight. Keep yourself topped up with your whip, and I always get headshot booster as the first item just so I can peck at people a bit more. Always grab buffs when they come up, too.Once your lane is donezo, try and have ritualist or trophy collector so that you don't fall behind in souls as you roam. Always grab boxes, and if you're on the ground you're doing it wrong. Jump on roofs and rotate to gank your other lanes that are eating shit. Your job is to go in, slam the piss out of the squishy, whip em, and get out. You are doing your combo, dipping to wait for cooldowns, and doing it again. Most of what lash boils down to is knowing how many times you can re-engage without dying horribly. Majestic leap saves you a wallclimb or a jump, I always get it plus stamina mastery to hover forever and leave on demand.By the lategame, unless you're fed as balls your damage will have dropped off. At this point, you are an ult machine that gives gifts to your team to shred apart on a silver platter. Pick up mystic expansion if you need help locking people, unstoppable if you're getting CC'd, and if possible, refresher to make people angry enough to DC.Long story short, play it safe until your L2 stomp. Then hover like an AC130 until you can combo, then jump out, then do it again. Then maximize your ult and play for team fights. Play like a jackass, solo ult people just to give a middle finger and secure kills. Never be alone so that people stay busy below you. Shmoove around for style points. Lash's character IS how you best play him, be a fucking cocksucker they can't swat away.
does grey talon suck or do I suck?
What the fuck is wrong with Silver's gun?Late game it takes like 4 fucking shots to kill a minion even with 6k+ invested
venator is so weird cuz like even a bunch of gun heroes might have a weird spirit build option because of how some abilities scale off of it meanwhile this motherfucker scales almost everything off of gun for some reasonlike mayyybe you can squeeze out a bit of a melee build with his fully upgraded 2 but who the fuck is doing that
>>556613623You need to snowball or you do no damage.
>>556613519Honestly? No, I think this game is going to go the way of their card game. Valve seems stuck in this perpetual loop of chasing fads far too late and not playing catchup well. I'm having fun in the meantime though.
>>556613546disagree graves should have a huge semi-flaccid-even-when-fully-aroused cock for bullying
Bruh what have they done with mirage his scarabs are ass now, they used to dominate lane
>>556613637it is essentially a melee gunyes its stupid
>>556613703>No, I think this game is going to go the way of their card gamelmao this is the most room temp IQ take people have on this game. It already has 1000000000000000000000000x more work put into it than Shartifact ever did. Maybe it won't reach CS/Dota 2 numbers but they're not going to just shut it down one day you fucking retard.
>>556613587I've been doing 2 points Flog into 3 points Ground Slam. is that wrong?
>>556613519If I was them I'd make this the last batch of new characters and just spend the rest of the year polishing. I think a fourth or even third quarter open beta is totally possible by then.Then the open beta can release more character batches and expand the roster
>>556613367competitive CS and dota still live on because people want to compete in those games, it's not like the riot or blizzard situation with their crap. to be fair, league of shitters is kept alive by korea
>enemy Seven giga farms almost 30k richer than anyone>NEVER buys unstoppable>lightning scroll bought right at the end when he has to 1v4 his baseWhat a dumbass
>>556611351>Infernus: Save his friend's bar.>Paige: Discover what happened to her brother that got kicked out of the house (actually)>Mirage: The state of Wyoming, or leverage to get it from the US.>Dynamo: Get his body back?>Haze: Freedom from OSIC>Ivy: Protect/Repay her adopted family? >Bebop: Cure miss Shelly>Grey Talon: Information/revenge on Friends of Humanity>Vindicta: Same as Grey Talon but for different reasons>Mina: be the Viscountess of New York?>Geist: Control or remove Oathkeeper>Pocket: presumably stop Fairfax industries>Wraith: Money and power.>Seven: Ultimate power, apotheosis.>Kelvin: Recover his memory of the polar expedition>Viscous: protect the sea from The Adversary that in the Bermuda Triangle astral gate.>Warden: Stop both patronsWho else? I'm sure I missed a couple. Most of the more or less confirmed wishes are actually pretty weak and mundane. Seven, Geist, Viscous, maybe Kelvin/Dynamo or Warden are the only ones that would actually need a patron to achieve their goals. Pocket, Bebop, Haze,... could need patron assistance depending on how powerful Fairfax and OSIC actually are with the deals they made.Neither the wishes nor the ritual itself is written as this world ending catastrophe. If it was a real threat to the world as we know it there's four different organizations that can field a small army to stop it, OSIC being the closest.
they should delete graves from street brawl, that would be cool I think
>>556614132I find her manageable after her brawl nerfs desu. No worse than the other meta cancer brawl picks.
Hello frens, a buddy gave me an invite and im browsing the hero listare the any of the ff throw picks? they seem fun >pocket mina mirage drifter
>>556613519Games doing well, its marinating nicely and they're sloely but steadily building an impervious foundation for the game. We're one or two major patches away now from being an extremely high end game, that's also much more nuanced and modern, and even allows a lot more play flexibility than pretty much everything else on the market currently that is self incestous and just making Overwatch again but with different characters.It will likely be a slam dunk as long as it sticks to itself and continues to iterate on making the game play more clean and fun and polished.Not like there's literally anything else new on the market offering something fresh, though I understand your concern. It's at a cusp right now though imo that if it manages to break through will be absurdly popular though I wont mind if it is or not. We will look fondly back at the days when this game wasn't ultra mainstream popular.
>>556613587Also forgot to mention for damage, after ritualist/trophy in lane get your green (I go counterspell+ML), your yellow (I get mystic shot), and then rush for Boundless spirit asap. Then either go spirit burn, mystic reverb, or arctic blast depending on how you want to do damage and what effects you might want on the enemy after you combo em. The game usually ends by this point, but you could also ignore stompmaxxing and go straight for refresher/expansion.>>556614025I do the same, just because flog prevents you from really needing to buy heals in lane. I think what might be holding you back is not getting to L2 stomp early enough in lane. Try out headshot booster, unless you're facing gaybrams or some other tank, your burst will do enough pecking to prevent you from being entirely zoned out from farm. Play safe unless you're winning hard, if your opponents get 2-3 kills on you, you won't hit your threshold in time and you have to save your power spike for post-lane.
>>556614098>Dynamo: Get his body back?It's not even a question, multiple characters ask him about it and I think Seven tells him he's wasting his potential
>>556614098I think a lot of the participants in the ritual are mercenaries who are like "well, I'm good at killing and you want to give me a wish for it? Why not?" Their reasons for being there are pretty inconsequential, since in the end it's mainly a bunch of hired guns. The "wish" part of it will be pretty mundane in relation to others who genuinely have world-changing goals.
>>556613703>>556613840I def don't think it's gonna be Artifact tier, but the fact that they pulled Dota 2 devs and hired RoR2 devs, I'm pretty sure they're gonna consider it a failure if it doesn't do as well as Dota 2. Failure could be anything from limited support for 2-4 years to life support indefinitely TF2 style. Like, they need to get their heads in the game and clean this shit up.>>556614026I completely agree. I don't think anymore time dedicated to new heroes is a good idea, or even reworking the older ones. Like there's multitudes of item, debuff, and ult inconsistencies that have no business being in an open beta. UI clarity, art direction, music, and the map in general need lots of focus too.
>>556613519I can tell you're an out of touch retard because you think the game is too unbalanced.all they really need to do is polish the art which they're making great progress. look at this untextured shit from last year >>556613039 compared to the current bases. model updates to the legacy heroes that still have their Neon Prime models.
>>556613840Nah, they won't, but I think the numbers we see now are what we'll see for the foreseeable future at best.It's not going to be a hit. If it was any other company besides Valve, it would hurt them, but it won't. It will survive though, you are correct.
>>556612213>Apollo>Graves>Ivy>Vindicta>S TierApollo and Graves are highschoolers, Apollo in particular is royalty. Graves in particular would be dead fish tier. Same with Ivy who only gets bonus points because she's probably a virgin. Vindicta would be A tier.
>>556612412>Impossible to followThats any MOBA yet normalfags love League
>>556614132Just step 5 centimeters away and she cant zap you.
>Ritualist 6>First game of day>Seeker 3 game>My team gets farmed the entire timeThanks, Yoshi, very cool
My 3 favorite characters are:>Seven >Graves>VictorWhat does this say about me?
>>556612412uh oh stinky hazeshitter
>>556613484No there aren't you crybaby, stop bitching about there being gun focused characters in a hero shooter + moba game.
>>556614360Also one more thing, if you're below Phantom, people are absolute pussies and don't know when and where to fight. You as lash can start a fight whenever you want by putting the enemy right in front of your team and effectively rub their nose in it like dog training. Do this often when you think people are pussyfooting around actually engaging, the bonus being you will get a pick or two right off the bat and (hopefully) have a numbers advantage afterwards.In addition, if your lane is pushed, don't be afraid to suddenly spring up and cheekily ult them into your tower. Guaranteed turnaround and you'd be surprised how often it works.
>>556614514>Graves in particular would be dead fish tierGraves gets bullied in school so she'd try extra hard to feel good for once.
>>556613519>yallStopped reading right there
>>556614715found the widow player
>>556613142>Silver>Girlfailure anything but 5-7 or lowerLMAO
I have obtained early access MGS6 gameplay from Kojima-san himself, and it changed my life. Take a look.
>>556614028>People want to competeyeah, because of artificially inflated prize pools lmfao esports is a dead industry
>>556612717K dash is just too good to pass up for low mag heros
>>556614870Why do people seethe so much at yall?>>556615102I remember a webm starting with a drifer crouching on top of a bridge and it was kino.
>>556614456Bro they're still using the same jungle camps. Polish my ass. Silver is a new release with reused animations AND animation bugs. Both Ven and Graves were released with multiple bugs that could have easily been caught with 5 minutes of play testing.>>556614870=( And I literally set they've made tremendous progress since 2024, but if this is gonna be an early 2027 release, they need to kick some serious ass and Valve has a so-so track record with that shit.
If graves, silver and rem are on one team, should the opposite team be allowed to just concede?
>>556615102Imagine the seethe if matt mercer was snake's voice
>>556613049Off carry anti tank body guardYou save your 2 to rescue your wraith from the mo combo(you need her to win because you carry hard carry)
>>556611868Mina > Silver > No one else because they arent attractive.
>>556615314>could have easily been caught with 5 minutes of play testingYOU ARE THE PLAYTESTER
>>556615530There is a closed playtest with trannies that is meant to catch these things before the wider public get their hands on it
>>556615530We are the beta testers, to be fair. The streamers are in the secret alpha build
>>556615314>pic>think it's some chud political comic against antifa>look it up>It's about the metric system.lmao.
I'm going to bed. That's another Archon game I didn't need to be put in. I'm shit, like Arcanist 4 shit.
>>556615102Kek.Was expecting something else.
I love this character and can't get games like that with anyone else despite people calling her bad
>>556615639>another tech illiterate retardimagine how broken the build that your super secret club of troons can't play is.
>>556612213Lash's beautiful mustache alone is enough for his own SSS tier
Fuck gunshit, this game won't last until 2027
>>556615850>imagine how broken the build that your super secret club of troons can't play is.lollmao
this game could run to 2030 off the profits from slutty mina anime skins alone

>Doorman pops door up.>Go through the door and kill doorman.Name a better fucking feeling than using that fagots door against him.
>>556615839imo the changes she got in last patch were actually a buff as i expectedthe difference pre-patch is extremely noticeable
>>556615102>Doorman puts someone in gay baby jail despite the entire team being around him ready to killLike clockwork. Half the time I have a doorman on my team, he's just too excited that he gets to press the button.
>play street brawl>enemy team has shiv>alt f4 well that's not worth playing lol
>>556613519All the buildings are far from finished, map itself looks a lot worse compared to the bases
>>556616113>doorman opens door>enter door>end up in Overwatch match>door closes behind you
>>556614245Pocket and Mina require a decent amount of skill to use and not eat shit. Mirage is solid and pretty easy as long as you can aim.Drifter is relatively easy to understand but easy to fuck up, imo, very feast or famine. Either you're a fed monster or a liability no in between.
>>556615148people will probably be playing CS and dota long after you die of obesity
>>556614382A bunch of them, particularly the criminals, are just there for the money and probably dont even have a wish beyond more money, true. My point was the wishes attached to the ritual are not really all that powerful so there's probably a limit to what a patron can and cant give you, otherwise they'd be wishing for more. They're not written in a "winner changes the rules of the world" way, most are very basic and practical wishes.The ritual being significant but not earth shattering makes sense if you think of it more like the last battle of a gang war between these two specific patrons, and less as the last thing that will ever happen in the setting as we know it.
>doormans door doesn't show further than 1 portalTHIS WAS SOLVED BY THE VERY SAME COMPANY IN TWO THOUSAND AND FUCKING SEVEN, NEARLY TWENTY YEARS AGO!
reminder that celestrannies were all remfags 2 weeks ago. there is no such thing as an "og" celeste fan. she's simply le current thing for npc gooner zogbots
>>556616532likely intended but go ahead and post about it on the forums.this isn't a single player story game.
>>556616315so his door does nothing?
>>556616532Just be happy the doors work at all without crashing the server. Why bloat things for a multiplayer game where latency is match ruining.

>Been having awful server cpu lag spikes at least for one game every day that eventually makes matches unplayable.Huh, and I just found out that my max FPS was set to 400. I wonder if that's been causing issues. I could have sworn I lowered this to 144 already...

>>556617052Moba, dipshit.
>>556616247Never mind, you just can't do anything against a Silver-Venator combo.
>>556617081speaking of snipers, what do we think the next sniper hero will be like? or will it just remain vindicta?
What's the point of Victor now?
>>556617183Moba have auto attack characters too.
Everyone is bitching about "Autoaim hero braindead" but no one ever talks about the fact that autoaim costs you the ability to land headshots.
>>556617183It's not a moba lmaoIt's a fusion of hero shooters and mobas
>>556617183>what's a pos1/adc
>>556612832Deadlock is already like this>Silver instant nerfed after being picked in pro play
Viktor is just better YamatoVenator is just better VindictaSilver is just better Drifter
>>556613519>I think Deadlock's closed beta absolutely need to come out this yearwhy? they can probably sit on it into 2028 if they wanted to. just launch with full marketing/steam advertising with item economy setup and that's about it
>>556617183sorry no this is DOTA 3rd person shooter
An ult like Lash's should not exist in any PvP game.
>every character has a gun>1/3 of all items are "GUN" items>gunplay is core damage dealing mechanicAAAAA WHY ARE THERE GUN CHARACTERS WTFWTFWTFWTFWTF
>>556617045I actually agree. It's too fucking strong for what it does and how easy it is to use.If we compare it to Linken's Sphere in Dota 2, then counterspell should only trigger once and go on cooldown for some time. Instead, you can totally fuck multiple heroes' kits and combos and they're just gg done. Even worse if you get unstoppable.
>>556617323and the fact people can move out of your range
>>556617381drifter is not meant to be a frontliner brusier like silver doe>victor and yamato>venator and vindicta???
>>556617285>>556617326>>556617345>>556617417Holy fuck what happened to this playerbase? Enjoy servers being shut down within this year, I guess.
>>556616247No, you can cock block the ults on that team with doorman's abilities. Silver is a doorman victim.

>>556614406>I'm pretty sure they're gonna consider it a failure if it doesn't do as well as Dota 2I don't think they're dumb enough to bank on their new game, one that's fairly experimental and highly complex, becoming as popular as one of the most played and successful multiplayer games out there especially right out of the gate.
Graves is a character for retards and e-girls.
>>556617395Valve is completely allergic to marketing for some bizarre reason, so they'll need to make sure hero shooters are still popular so they can continue to steal from Overwatch and Marvel Rivals. Or maybe they'll run ads for once in their life.
>>556617551>retarded dotanigger immediately rings the bells of doom when his retardation isn't backed upKeep crying you retard, this game has never been just "a moba".

>>556618143ignore the top text
how are you supposed to play paige early game?her gun is megapoop and her abilities have yearlong cooldowns
I want the pace of street brawl but a mode where all heroes are actually viable
are there any new characters that don't require aiming skills? i'm too washed up to shoot well in video games
>>556618386glueing your self to the anus of your carry and eating the assists that come out
>>556618415graves has a literal auto aim + rem is a support who shouldn't really be shooting late game
>>556618283true!
>>556618386Buy barrier first item and stick with someone. You now have two barriers you can cycle between.
>>556617892>>556618064Even getting like 5% of Overwatch players buying shitty hats would fund the game into a mega success. Steam has like 40+ million and there's like hundreds of millions of people NOT on Steam. I personally known like 10 people who don't even regularly open Steam, even though they have it installed, so a front page ad would completely miss them.>>556617945PLEASE. This would be godlike.
>>556617395Markets for games dry up and people move on. Crafting survival games, battle royales,... all had an expiry date.Hero shooters will not be popular forever and the only reason an OW clones are briefly popular now is because MR was free, fun for casuals and had colossal astroturf marketing.Why would the demand for Smite be there 3 years from now when it was never as popular as the biggest moba or hero shooter games of its time? Moba people want mobas and hero shooter people want shooters.
Seen a lot of Silvers complain about charging ult. Had the same until I experimented and found that Mystic+Express shot make a single M1 charge for like 2/3rds or 3/4ths in one go. Made a guide to help others.454443I got MVP with this if that means anything at all.
>>556618415they made graves for you
>>556618746Silver's way easier now that hitting barriers gives ult charge
>hit sub 50 WR>tired of my teamates being literally bots>maybe if I use my mic itll get better>use mic>sound like pic related>get made fun of>lose because we didnt do mid boss when I askedI think im just gonna KMS anons im gonna be hard stuck Oracle forever with these brainless faggots
>>556617323It's a Valve game with moba aspects, so there's a section of the playerbase that are sub 80 IQ dotafags who want and think the game is literally just dota, ignoring all the shooter aspects of it because it's the only game they've ever played
>>556618746thank you, i willt try!
>>556618415The Lash....
>>556619013I sound like a fruity homo but using your mic will up your win rate if you're not a moron like you claim

>>556619013you can use ai to make your voice sound like anything now bro
>>556618746your mistake is thinking that silver players can ever hit a shotthese are fujo girl gaymers we're talking about, here
>>556618660>Markets for games dry up and people move onyet, CS and dota live on. that's obviously what they're trying to match.
They need to make Vyper sexy.
>>556619015what does that have to do with his post?

>>556619226any program recommendations?
>Start smacking knockdown on their Mina on cooldown as soon as her dainty little feet leave the cobblestones>she disconnectsI have no reaction for this
>>556619196Very true>>556619226Id rather be a faggot than resort to that personally.
/dlg/ really voted for 4 boring monkeys first huh?
>>556619452>mina without dispel magicseeker moment
>>556618875That absolutely helps, just those two items make it substantially easier to get charge up, even from midrange. And they make human form actually do respectable damage which helps for her dogshit lane clearing. Combine with her 1 and you can just sweep creeps up vs having to heavy melee them all. If you get VB you can almost heal half your health off one wave too.>>556619239You're not wrong. I might add a segment for "I can't aim for shit" and swap the shot items for melee items and "pray the enemy can't parry/learn to bait parries". Failing that Torment Pulse will generate it for free just by existing in a team fight which is why I included it, if team is mostly jumping around like cockroaches I even buy it first.But I would hope they can at least push 1 then M1 on the giant fuckass Abrams on their screen but maybe that's hoping for too much.
>>556617485I don't get it either, the shooter aspects are the moment-to-moment parts of the game, like combat and movement, the moba parts are the macro aspects of the game.
>>556619013I can only imagine how bad it must be for you because I've had multiple women(women) use the mic in my lobbies and nobody even bothers making a joke or asking if they're a woman or a child.
This fucking comp, lmao.

how doth I play vyper?
>>556619013You probably just got a bad lobby full of fags. I doubt most people are going to say anything, even if they do think your voice is annoying, unless you're also just being annoying in general. You can't sound like you're bossing people around or backseating them or it won't matter if you sound like Chad Thundercock. You got to be a teammate making a call and you respectfully move on if they disagree no matter how much you know you're right.
>>556619904probably, and you can shit on them unless they're overwatch mains who will just outaim you.most people in those lobbies skip everything and just launch multiplayer and stumble around for 3 matches and uninstall.

>>556619239>>556619636>>556619038Updated to account for people who can't aim for shit. Just go heavy melee spam and pray the enemy team can't parry (Which is more often than you think I've gone entire games without seeing a single person parry a heavy melee from me).
paige is so fucking annoying, delete this dumbass negrotic hero

say thank you.
Question, how exactly does the Mystic Reverb Life steal stack with others? Like if Shiv imbued Dash and also had Leech or something
venatorfags killed the game
>>556622668TEST IT NIGGAGET IN THE SANDBOX
>>556622025It's never worth it unless someone is safe, dying to DOT and has sub 100hp, though it would be funny if you could do a build around it that was viable.
>>556622496THANK YOU!!!!
does street brawl affect MMR?
I think I love Sinclair bros. Stealing ults is fucking rad and must be so rage-inducing to die to your own ability
What a dogshit question, go fuck yourselves retards.
>>556622913i keep missing the 1
>>556622856no but it counts toward games played and hero winrate for some dumb reason
>>556622949I answer 1 for everything just to fuck with them, hopefully it drags the average down for everything so they feel motivated to do a better job
Here comes the lash.
>>556623134>be volvo>see a player just voting 1 on everything>discard all their future feedback
>>556622363no shit>almost every hero has hard CC>up to 4 CC per person via items>convoluted itemization and stat scaling>annoying and inconsistent mechanics like ability/item interactions and melee systemlike no shit your average normie isn't going to stick around. Deadlock makes dota and league's learning curve look like a beginner slope. I have 1.5k hours across 2 accounts and still need like at least 20-30 matches before I'm somewhat comfortable on a hero. You can't expect that of a normal person.
>>556622771wrong, that would be discord stacks.
>>556622856I have exclusively played brawl (285 matches) and it still says I'm obscurus rank.
>have to pull 1k souls per minute minimum to play most hyper-carries>venator can play at 500 per minute and still winHuh...
https://youtu.be/Z2_858PYqr0?si=ezy5YfYTZlHJQlCS
Street Brawl is so fucking awful. How do people have fun with this?
hey if you're retarded stop picking silver thank youalso don't pick spirit infernus into vindicta or pocket you fucking moron
>>556622913I loved stealing ults as Sylas, but I don't know all characters yet in Deadlock
>>556623273took me 1 match to rape niggas with venator
reminder that the 6 hero patch hit its player number peak the week AFTER victor came out.
>>556623503>also don't pick infernusfixed
Streetbrawl is great because I can jam out to tunes while I play and it's not trolling
>>556623572>even more players to fuck up the already abysmal matchmakingCan’t wait…
>>556623405based transfem queen makes the sevenchud seethe
>>556623436they are mechanically good and like to stomp the casuals.
>>556623009I just run into point blank range so I can't miss it
So what are we gonna do if the open beta isn't in 2026?
How am I supposed to know what builds are good or badI don't wanna make a build of my own, I just wanna autopilot
>>556624396Hopefully you'll go back to whatever game you came from and matchmaking will get slightly better.
>>556624396why the fuck would i care, i'm already in
>>5566243962026 is half over buddy, it's not happening
>>556624396it won't be 2026and even then who cares?
so, paradox bodydo you jerk to it?
>>556623650I have a smurf account waiting for when it happens to shit all over new players.
Is there some way to check the scaling on abilities/weapons?
>>556624763
>>556624763hold alt
>>556624516I don't play the game I shitpost about the release date on /dlg/
>>556624378but then you dont do the max dmg
>>556616532Anon, on release putting down a single door would cause everyone in the game to drop 5fps and putting more doors would lower fps even further.Going through the door would sometimes ban you for cheating because the inbetween lip part of the two doors was a speedhack or something so it banned you.Walking through the door had an 80% chance of making ANYONE crash to desktop. Recently when they made his doors force drop the urn you could cart someone holding the urn through the door and EVERYONE IN THE MATCH would crash to desktop and walk back to their base.Be happy they even work, man.
she's so pretty
>>556623134NTA but if you seriously do this you're going to get shadowbanned and your poll questions will just be placebos. I answer all mine as honestly as I can(and use 0 to skip ones for items I haven't built or heroes I haven't played) and I noticed that I get asked more questions. When I first started playing like a month ago it was 3 questions each time but now sometimes I log on and get 5 questions. One time after a match I was in the hideout and got to answer 6 questions in a row
>Get to Phantom>1-10 Venator every game>Drop back to Oracle>Clomb back to Phantom>1-10 Venator every gameFUCK OFF
How does overtime respawn work?
>>556623642why wouldn't u be able to in normal matches? Deadlock's audio normalization is good enough to make anything you want to hear still clearly audible over music, and there's not that much shit u need to hear in the first place.MOBAs in general are almost always played with music in the background, idk who the fuck doesn't play them with music.
>>556625157there's 1/10 venators in every rank
>>556618746I'm not 100% sure on express shot but if I get to play her I'll try out mystic shot.
>>556625084I've been playing for like 10 hours and feel unqualified to answer most questionsI'm following community builds and I'm mostly seeing the new heroes + a few others regularly, probably still haven't seen like 10 of them
>>556625205I want to play with you again. Also those guys probably had eternal gift which reduces respawn time by 70% on a cooldown
>>556624763In game? Hold alt. Out of game? Check wiki. It’s a good resource. I’ve been making an excel sim sheet to theorycraft deadlock build dps, and I reference the wiki like 50 times a day.
>>556618746good buildmystic and express made farming camps feel comfyi'm not good with silver and this is in fact my first real game as her, but build felt good.
>>556625234eido went 1/7 then 1/19 when he first played him
>>556625205There's a legendary item that reduces the cooldown.
>>556624932you can shoot it up into the sky and then direct it back down next to you to get travel time
>>556625310oh really. No wonder we lost because 3/4 of them had that
>>556625263express shot is a must have on any character that doesn't use fast RPM guns desu. Its such a big burst increase. Silver express shot into heavy melee can chunk the fuck out of people if ur not behind.
>>556625205When should someone get lightning scroll in standard on Silver?
It's absolutely insane that I cant ban Silver and have to play with or against her every single fucking game
>>556625686b-but anon dey need pway data uwu...
It's time.
FIX YOUR FUCKING MATCH MAKING VALE HOLYT FUCK IM SUCK OF EVERY FUCKING GAME BEING A ONESIDED MESS FUCK!
>>556625442Yeah but instead of express shot I could get weighted shots, have some more shred and do gooder damage Always instead of just when off CD. I don't doubt you but personally I'd just got for some other item. Also I'm not even allowed to play silver even when using token so it's okay my opinion on her holds no ground.
>>556612615No one watches pro Deadlock.>>556612853Not trying to start shit with LoLfags, but that game's e-sports scene has always looked artificial to me. Maybe I'm just being too conspiratorial, but when one player is by far better than everyone else and his username is Faker, it's a little suspicious.>>556614028CS, yes, but no one outside Eastern Europe plays Dota and the competitive scene is entirely funded by gambling now.
>>556625765>2 days sad!
>>556625205>scroll triggers when your ult abilities deal spirit damagedamn
>>556625686she just came out
New player, is this rank high? I just got stomped by a lash in lane.
>33 assists on my second rem game clinging to our fed victor and giving him divine barrieroh yeah single handedly saved the match
>>556625686legitimately shut the fuck uphaze has had a 90+ percent pick rate for as long as this games existence and i'll be GODDAMNED if silver being in a game makes me feel anything but content that someone is taking her spot
>>556625887your M1 and melee too
>>556625931it's higher than average yes, surprised it put you that high after the new player placement changes,guess yoshi just keeps fucking it up.
>>556625686this but gravesit's gg if she shit 2 ult from afar when they siege your basecan't reach there without making it a 5v6stun zombies amongst 9384092 creepsend game graves ALSO automatically beat you in 1v1 because she auto aim while stealing 45% your dmg and no one will sync with you to take her downher retarded wall in the middle of a small shitty zone making defending patron hell you will waste a fuck tons of dps if you light melee to clear skulls
>>556625686How are you guys getting filtered by silver? She telegraphs her wolf form well in advance. Just walk away when she starts yapping about her period.
>>556615209saying yall is just an indication that you wont have anything interesting or insightful to say, its basic pattern recognition
>>556626069yeah graves is fucking annoying to deal late game.
>>556626069>stealing 45% your dmg80%*graves is cancer on so many levels I'm surprised this garbage made it through the super sekrit playtesting.I legitimately can't wait till she becomes bannable because her ult is the most unfun garbage in this game.
>people are playing the new character?!!?!?god there are some choice retards here
>>556625931about silver/gold from league/overwatch
>venator>perfectly tracks moving targets even at long distances>never misses stakesreally makes you hmmm
>>556625686seethe, she is hot and will always be played. when will people going to learn hot characters will always be popular no matter how shit they are.
So Silver canonically makes bad decisions, does that mean I have a chance with her?
I gave Rem a cigarette
>>556626158I am genuinely worried about the state of this game with how overtuned all of these heroes areThey need to get rid of that hopoo faggot
>>556626432what's wrong with vyper?
>>556626309She IS a bad decision
>>556626187no dude he’s just a chilled out southern blue dog democrat, he’s definitely not a reddit faggot who adopted “yall” because it’s gender neutral cmon
>Have Rem at high priority>Have gotten to play him every fight for two daysDo people already hate him now or something? Well, whatever, I'm reaping all the benefits because this is the only character I can play, fuck.
>>556626576holy based
>>556626582he is ugly.
>>556626582He's fun
>>556626582He's cool but to do good on him you need to have a grasp of map layout and jungle pathing, automatically filtering out 100% of newfriends coming over from hero shooters and 75% of newfriends coming over from MOBAs that they were bad at
>>556626309the worst decision about Silver is her kit is fucking trash
I just can’t imagine being so much of a shitter that you can’t spend an hour learning the map and movement mechanicsHow the fuck do you get filtered by that
>>556627079i just go to lane and shoot the creeps
>>556627079But in Marvel Rivals all I had to do was load into the match and then perma fight at the capture point :((
>>556626979But I love her trash kit
>shiv on my team3/16/0>shiv on enemy team32/2/18fun game
>>556627079running around an empty map is gay and boring and also doesn't really make you learn it under real conditions or get you a feeling of when you can efficiently take certain creeps with x character and y itemsMovement probably because they don't mention half the stuff in the tutorial
Do ranks update every day or once a week? I went from seeker II to alchemist II over the last day but my rank wasn't moving at all earlier this week.
>>556627079>friend A and I are good at the game and know what to do>friend B has a hard time figuring things out because he mostly played in 4lane (and was still kinda mid at the game back then as well>have to hold his hands Every Fucking Match>He just refuses to set aside five minutes in a match to just get his bearings on his side of the mapPlaying with friends is fun but playing with friends that just refuse to learn gets grating. Having to tell him what items are going to counter the enemy team that all rely on their abilities to do damage gets tiring after the 20th time you have to do it.
>>556627079tried to get a friend into the game who is a big LoL guy, first match i pretty much just did a tourism guide through the map with him so obviously we were gonna get fucked but i just wanted to show him everything, how sinners work, buffs, etc. he ragequit 20 minutes in after we got rushed by 4 of the enemy team and he went back to league
i'm so hungry... just a tiny piece of your sinners please...
>>556625686the character fucking sucks, whats to complain about?
autism...
Anyone got some tips for Yamato? She's listed as very strong, but I don't really get her, the 1 slash is so slow to charge fully
>>556627645don't play yamato
>>556627645wait for the remodel
The nerfs have certainly hurt her, especially late game but moments like these where you table flip with your ult makes it worth it
>>556627645She just kinda sucks. You need to get fed in lane to do anything so if your lane opponents don't just hand you three kills the first thing they do you just don't get to have fun.
