>>583773690are you the mirage bro?
Does laning feel incredibly different on this updated map? At the 3 minute mark one or both people fuck off for boxes and the lane isn't about fighting the enemy team its about getting a quick clear on the troopers and then stealing breakables. Is this a low elo thing where kills in lane are rarer or the new normal?
havent played the game or kept up with any news for 6 months. used to be a phantom/asc shitter. anything important from all the patches since then I should know? I figured I'll play normal games until I get the hang of things again but I used to be autistic about making all my own builds and thats hard when Ive missed all the balance changes and new items and the like that probably exist. Im trying to remember what the game was like when I stopped and Im struggling. I feel like they had just made the ttk super low and giga buffed trophy collector or something and were super intent on stomping out any and all variable builds like gun on spirit chars but idk
My King....
>>583773326Give us your take on a better conversation.
Who should I add to my roster? Venator? Mina? Lash? Shiv?

>>583773690they're notthere's no such thing as a "pro deadlock player" or "deadlock esports"it's all a made up fairy dust fugazi circlejerk by losers, 98% of which will be outclassed and made irrelevant both as players and streamers when the game is made publicyou all vastly overestimate how "accessible" this invite only "beta" isif you talk to any relative normie compsloppers you'll find a lot of them literally have trouble finding an invite or aren't willing to engage with it until it's actually released properly
>>583773858yo lash why don't you say the n word to Calico instead?
>>583774237He does, but only in the bedroom.
>mfw I reported someone and got them banned for 30 days
>>583774180why would someone too retarded to get invited be better than any current player
>>583774328I think that's just the max ban not the initial one
>>583774176why do furries want to fuck the rat so badly
>>583762992I used to rage out and type explicit death threats in /all chat in league back in like 2010-2012 and my account has literally never been banned and I still have it to this day cause I quit in like 2015
>>583774401Big ugly bastard coded.Speaking of rat king, you just know if Gilbert Gottfried we're still kicking around he'd be voicing him.

>>583774510thanks for letting everyone know kevin, see you next session
>>583774705Damn, in there he really is king.
>>583773815I mean he missed it because he was doing a fast rotate to get the creeps, so he had to do a large flick.With that said>>583774180I agree with this sentiment, it really just is an amateur league for elo grinders right now. They leave a lot on the table in the map and they rely a lot on coinflipping ("outplays"). Buff Enjoyers are the only team that moves in an approximation of a coordinated team, most likely because of Lightbringers' coaching (actually skillwise only Zergyyy is a standout honestly)
Annesix hero when?
>>583774958>actually skillwise only Zergyyy is a standout honestlywhat about dew or oses7?
>>583775119They are highly skilles but I wouldn't say standouts. Buff Enjoyers without Zergyy was another beast. And I say that as a guy who primarily watch Lystic since his hero pool mirrors my own.Zergyyy aim, positioning and map movement adds a lot of consistency to Buff Enjoyers because it keeps their low performance really high.
I'm just trying to learn the game but people keep telling me to kill myself
>stomping enemy>suddenly my ping shoots to the moon>goes away the second they wincurious
>>583775380i hacked you bro
>>583775380yeah that was me lol, thanks for the elo
>>583775364Maybe put your ego aside and try taking their advice?
>check bug report section on forums>80% of it is falling under the map and getting an afk leaver penalty MM ban for itwhat were they playtesting the map 400 days for?

how are you meant to catch up in souls when you're 10k behind and the enemy is in jungles
>>583776187hit some crates
>it's a Dynamo + Rat King comp
>>583776187how did the enemy get ahead 10k souls? start by not letting that happen.
how are you supposed to lane on drifter when the enemies outrange you?
>it's another "broken op character but on my team" kinda day
Marriage to mcginnis and impregnating her with 19 kids
>>583776295Comments like these are the most useless shit ever
The only reason nigfernus is not on here is because people are successfully psyoped into thinking dispel magic is a hardcounter to himWhich is both a good and a bad thing, it makes less people pick him in order to get effortless free wins but also makes it so he'll never get nerfed so people who already realize hes S+ tier broken can just continue to pick him and get free 0 counterplay wins
>>583776187Do you have more big teamfight ults than the other team? Wait until they overextend while grouped up and press 4, go mid after, you have now won.You don't? It's over.
>>583776468you walk in shooting range of the creeps your 1 does a fuckton of damage even early game if the enemies get too close you use it
>>583776187Split push
>>583776573It's insane to me how strong carries are in this game, what do you mean the stealth m1 assassin has a century long cc to catch anyone and can both nuke single target and a group with her ult?
>>583776573retard
>>583776573>top 5%what's your rank?
>>583776468Dash/jump dash in, hit 1, dash/jump dash out. Get headshot booster. You can hit rend while sliding like Yamato to get around a corner or up onto the high ground in front of their tower then dash back.
After the game comes out, would you want any more story? and if so, how would you want it to be delivered? VNs? Comics? The PvE mode, somehow? More Vagueposting matchstart dialogues?
>>583777110>VNs>The PvE modeAnd a ''Meet the Ritualists'' series
>>583777110Dating VN with your favorite hero
Afterburn is the most overpowered ability in the game.
>>583776295my teammates spread their asshole for lash and rat king
>>583777184>>583777110I fucking hate the idea of VNs and I seriously hope they never do it for this game
I hope the PvE mode comes with a third patron that arms the player with their items against whatever PvE threat. Could also be that the PvE threat is the third patron.
Just got raped by a hero time for me to spam the 4chan.org /vg/ - Video Game Generals thread for Valve Software's in-development "Deadlock" title about it
Does Baba need buffs or nerfs?
>>583776740you just named the least of haze's problems having a RANGED version of Ursa's fury swipes, which in dota is only balanced by it being on a kiteable melee hero is big problem #1having a 5 second cooldown dispel magic with 5 charges makes every single active item in the game bar Curse, and every single non-stun status effect instantly useless against her so she can m1 you for free, big problem #2watch the oracle browns scream now that ummmmmm actually shes bad because some nightshift tranny said so or something
>>583777539You dislike reading or something? They're toying around the idea of unlocking unique outfits by reaching different endings it'd be amazing
>>583777539I mean... when you think about it, the tf2 comics are essentially a VN. D...Does that help..?
>Billy is concerned about Ixians not being able to join the Olympics >doesn't show the same concern about RatanniaHe's a racist chud and definitely not punk
>>583777612I hate the artstyle and I just know the more they make VNs the more opportunities they have to shit up characterization or add in unneeded off the cuff wokesloppa in the world
>>583777591>having a RANGED version of Ursa's fury swipes, which in dota is only balanced by it being on a kiteable melee hero is big problem #1plated armor, debuff resist, dispel, metal skin
Why doesn't every character have an alt fire M2?
>>583777676You can be racist and punk, sick of you commies trying to claim punk and in the same breath shill for the status quo stateIt’s about breaking the rules and that includes your gay social policing
>>583777706>or add in unneeded off the cuff wokesloppa in the worldoh you're one of those
Haven't been able to play since she released, but is Baba not a support character? Really feels like she is with all the various CC built into her kit. Seems like you could just be sapping the enemy carries' Spirit while pulling, pushing, knocking up, and silencing enemies, so you only need a little Spirit while building tanky, but I see so many full Spirit builds.
>>583777773Don't need any more gunslop in the game.
Who should I have permabanned? Graves or Vyper? I fucking hate both.
>>583777773way too much effort for the amount of heroes there are>>583777717
>>583777110They've been doing these storymode events in Dota lately instead of battlepasses which have been cool. They have a little story with some lore that you navigate through and collect cosmetics.
>>583777582Her numbers are high but she's kind of hard to play and people haven't settled on builds yet, she'll probably need to be nerfed but not as quickly as Rat King. If they nerf her they could also lower her skill floor by making her 1 a little easier to hit and the 3 cycle faster. The ult probably needs to charge up faster if it does less damage also.
>>583777817I would say she is a dedicated anti-spirit hero more than anything. Like if you're playing Victor, Mina, Apollo you are not having a fun time since she's sapping at least half of your spirit.
how many times have you ever actually used the health apples, anon?
>>583777867>gravescancer>vyper not a problem
>>583777983Pretty often, most people don't know where they are so I can hog them all without worry.
There need to be more gun items, and branching paths for how you can build guns
>>583777717>debuff resist, dispelNo one buys these to counter that you disingenuous faggot>plated armorFamously mediocre luxury item countered by other gun items, if Haze is a problem then you'll have a long wait before you get that item and by the she might have Armor Piercer>metal skinCan only do so much and often just delays your death slightlyAll that shit and you don't even mention disarming hex
>>583777817She's sort of a frontliner that wants to be raping spirit heroes but is extremely weak to gun characters.
>>583778053This, metal skin is FUCKING garbage>Wow, you're immune to m1ggers for a few seconds>Except not really because the m1ggers also have DOTslop too
>>583777983almost all the health apples are in spots you are already using movement at to escape enemies so if you are a good player you use them all the time. but their respawn time is too long and that sucks a bit
Deadlock should not have been a shooterslop game.
>>583777932I'm not convinced by that. Why would it be too much effort? How is it more effort than an ability? It seems a straightforward way to make characters more interesting.
>>583778168https://store.steampowered.com/app/570/Dota_2/
>>583778218>linking a game that will make it past 2026 unlike eoslocknice point you made there
>>583777817I've only got to play her once, but what I felt was working out is when you play her kinda as a bodyguard. She is tanky, but whenever I tried to initiate I couldn't survive.I'd assume she thrives when she is hovering a m1 so she can peel for them with her 2, while she also drags enemies out of position with her one. Her 3 has general utility for this role, allowing her to shutdown tanks, protect the carry or heal focus down a target. Her 4 is a general "fuck you I reset the board" button if multiple brawlers get a good initiate going, but you can't lead with it since you need to steal some spirit to feel strong on her.
>>583778135I don't understand why people overrate that item so hard, it rarely feels worth it to me, Disarming Hex or other bullet resist items seem better to me
>>583778053>disarming hex*presses 2*
so tired of gunshit
Deadlock should not have been a mobaslop game.
Deadlock should have been a meet n fuck game
>>583779024your metal skin, sir?
>uhh chuddie? i_transheart_bbc #BLM from our professional deadlock NightShift™© community said that gun heroes are bad because of counter items, end of discussion. Yoshi, continue with the doorman and bebop nerfs.
>>583779201Finally someone sensible
>>583773554I'm dropping any characters I previously dabbled with in all 25~ hours of gameplay I banked like 7 months ago and am now maining Haze.Do you have any general advice, guides to read or watch, or anything else so I can contribute the most optimally?
I'm doing my part.

>>583779597>>583779706guys come on seriouslyhow should I be moving during the game, is she a big time roamer trying to get ganks from the jump or does she focus on farming more early and then transition to like, roaming ganking? the only thing I know about her is seeing some of cosmetical's movement videos like 9 months ago
>>583779483below Asc?unironically go Rico as 4th itemnot 4th tier 44th itemand just afk soak up all the farm on the map, get a 20k lead at 20 minutes and then do anything you wantpast asc?good luck LMFAO
I have found the method >Prio rat king, Doorman, Lash and then Shivyou get a ban on ANY of those 4 since people can't swap onto picks you swapped off of>PLUS your actual banI am a genius

is it true that all cheats are mods?
>>583780563>among the toppest top tier characterslol
>they will never make a character hotter than minait's over
>>583779483take responsibility
What is the point of Holliday exactly?After her "update" that severely nerfed her she struggles to do anything by herself other than being an ultbot and having a decent lane in the right matchups>barrelsWorse than before>crackshotShit and too inconsistent as a damage source in mid or late game when everyone has more mobility, her m1 builds in general are terrible compared to all other m1 heroes>jumppad"For fun" mobility ability not utilized correctly outside of coordinated play>ultGood but does not make up for the rest of her kit being shit and its power is completely reliant on teammates.Clearly her main strengths are her jumppads and ult but they're massively centered on coordinated team play, which does not apply to 99.9% of the playerbase and in my opinion is bad game design when a hero is only good in an extremely narrow situation the vast majority of players won't ever touch.Rework her or something, she's awful.
I have 120 votes on Violet.
