My beloved gargoyle wife

When are they buffing purple items?

>dead thread
ngl i want to play, but im waiting for bigger updates
the "content" drip feed is too slow for me when i really want to see how the world's story ultimately develops
game is great, but i need breaks from competitive games and im currently binging on another game that came out 2 weeks ago

I really love trapper, very fun and you dont need to be good at aiming at all to play him well. Hope he gets added sooner than the aids lizard and cat nigress

How the fuck do you look someone up on deadlock tracker? I want to see his fucking party
All the enemy team profiles are private

>>503039526
sorry but my hold Q method on calico will be your downfall and I will achieve 100% uptime on silence and stealth.

why is there forced 50 in unranked?? Why can’t I just play fair games without having to prove to the system I can carry retards? I don’t give a shit about muh skill and elo if the game is just unfun

hopes for the patch?

>>503041793
Anything more than just balance adjustments and slight map tweaks. Feels like that's all we've gotten for months

>>503041769
there is no forced 50 you colossal retard you're just not as good as you think you are

>>503040320
Hope they were retarded enough to not hide on tracklock too.

>>503042263
Tracklock can't load match data atm for some reason

i fucking love paradox bros, super fun character. makes shitters seethe too

>>503041793
2 new heros introduced into herolabs along with new testing items. Any of the new heros being added into proper matches aside from Viper or Wrecker. Any adjustments to match progression I don't really care how specific the changes are current state is real wack.

>>503042075
>these are the kind of yoshi cocksucker downplaying contrarians you have to share the general with
gas all autists

>>503041793
::::Hopes::::
Haze made useful again.
Split pushing and ganking made viable again.
Jungle made viable again.
Deathball meta broken.
At least one hero fully released.
Some visual updates to heroes with placeholder models like Bebop and Yamato.

::::Expectations::::
Slight map tweaks.
Slight item tweaks.
Another hero lab release.
Tiny tweaks to hero balance.

>>503043927
Wraith seems to have the most people misplaying her. It's like they died to a fed wraith and assumed she got fed by brooling(she was ratting)

>I build for assassination rather than multi ult so I shouldn't get unstoppable
This is a really stupid haze mind set. You should build unstoppable anyway so you can assassinate target without getting cc and blown up

I am 3-4 in ranked, fighting HARD to regain my Archon rank. I really feel like it all depends on your teammates. I think if I were paired up with Archon players rn I'd get pretty much the same results.

>>503042646
Yeah broken characters are usually fun

>>503044356
Oh and fuck pocket, he's in every match on the enemy team and he's the slipperiest fucker in the world. I would like them to force the TP on the cloak at the very least, even if that wouldn't fix the problem.

>>503044543
Your silence glyph bro? You're still seething from last thread?

>>503044932
Oh, good shout. And no, everyone hates Pocket.

>heal tons as Kelvin and keep everyone alive
>does jack shit because team still does no damage
>so the Haze goes 1/6 instead of 1/10
I really like healing but I don't think I can keep playing this character in ranked when I get multiple teammates who only have deaths as a score with 0 assists or kills

>try to play one ranked game
>matched with fucking oracle on my team (was ascendant 4 last week)
>Oracle loses lane as grey talon
>Oracle rushes headshot booster
>Oracle comes to my lane, can't take tower because he's super behind so I roam and cover pushed lanes, 50 seconds later he dies and ask why I left
>Oracle does a fucking point blank owl RIGHT IN FRONT OF AN ULTING WARDEN
>Oracle has lowest souls, 2/6, 100 objective damage


>My haze rushes echo shard melee haze


I am so fucking done with this garbage game
Every fucking week it's "gee I wonder how the devs are gonna ruin the fucking game this time"

who won deadlock fight night

Every time i go against Gray Talon or Geist in lane, i get restorative locket as my first item. Every time i go against Bebop, Abrams or Lash, i get Reactive Barrier as my first item. And i always win the lane. Getting Reactive Barrier as your first item feels especially silly, since if they ever try to fight back you just get so much barrier for that point in the game that they can't really do anything, and locket against ability spammy heroes essencially means that you have two HP bars before 10 minutes. I highly recommend these strategies

>>503046104
>Play a game in an invite beta testing phase
>HURR DURR WHY ARE THE DEVS MAKING DRASTIC CHANGES TO TEST THINGS FOR A WEEK
Could be worse with horrible metas locked in for months

>>503046237
we did, lots of shitposting occurred as a result

>>503046436
Maybe not make utter dogshit changes no one likes?
Is that too much to ask?

I'm playing in a region with fewer players than average (South America) and thanks to the dwindling player numbers i'm actually playing with the same people over and over. Like, day after day i keep getting the same people in the matchmaking. I'm starting to learn their play patterns, the heroes they usually play, how good they are. It's actually... kind of nice? It reminds me of playing in community servers back when those were still a thing in games.

this has been genuinely the most unfun 2 weeks I've ever had with this game
starting to see why people are leaving in droves, I just don't see this getting better judging from past patches

>>503046664
From the guy who makes dota? Probably.
Most of the changes anyway are community suggested which is the problem because people who play these games are typically retarded and just suggest to make a mechanic either incredibly tedious or broken for a character they play. Please run the urn across the fucking map while muted silenced and fucked up the ass because that's fun. The vocal minority is slowly ruining the game.

>>503047137
>>503046664
Just stop playing. I legitimately don't understand why you people are like this, is it just an addictive personality? It's an unfinished ass game in an invite-only alpha, if you're not having fun to the point where you constantly complain about it online, then why are you playing it? The game gets updates nearly every week, if you think the current meta sucks and is unfun, just wait literally like a week or two for changes. Go do anything else with your time that isn't playing a blatantly unfinished game you don't even like

>got a haze teammate in rank
>Uhhhhh haze suck now but I gonna pick her anyway
>Uhhh I refuse to build unstoppable, sleep dagger haze is the only
Just fucking peak suffering on top of our Abram being useless all game and a haze that never go online. Who give a fuck of they "can" get metal skin. You have better chance of doing damage that doing stupid ass sleep build that goes nowhere

I make great changes doe
TODAY

>>503047423
Yeah and while we're at it we should have 2 urns so less people on the winning team can have fun and add teleports to opposite sides of the arena so it's more tedious and unfun to snowball win but harder to stop instead of fixing the ability to snowball really hard and win because the losing team is getting throat fucked in their base because every "building" is terrible. Also lets add the ability to headshot the "buildings" so they're even weaker. Clearly the community is a master of game design and don't just suggest things that are either only fun if you're winning or making something tedious to try to "nerf" it.

>>503047395
it's because it was once fun, and now it is not, is that hard to comprehend?

>>503047971
I do comprehend that, my point is that you don't have to play if it's not fun right now. Usually it sucks to stop playing a game you like because the current meta sucks, but this game gets patches almost every week. Just take a week off dude. You're going to be happier for it.

>>503047971
It was only fun when everyone was bad at the game, at it's base this game doing meta shit is terrible since y'know it's a beta and widely unpolished and unbalanced. The only reason ranks were added was to appease retards thinking it's a finished game for some reason.

Siphon bullets on Warden, yay or nay?

I was watching a video about the new version of Train they added to CS2 and man, does it look good. Valve is really good at aesthetic design. It's one of the things i'm really looking forward to when it comes to Deadlock, i feel like the map's final version is going to look really pretty.

>>503048645
Certainly wouldn't hurt
What would you be replacing for it?

pocket with items is practically impossible to kill if you dont have slowing hex, silence or curse. even then if he has kinetic dash he can ape around until it wears off. very unfun to play against. i bought superior duration silence + curse just for a faggot pocket player and he had the audacity to complain, rofl

>>503050410
>Counterbuilding works
No shit. Why are you still complaining? Two threads now of your bitching.

>>503050038
Probably Crippling Headshot, which is my second T4 unless I really, really need Curse.
That's the thing, Siphon Bullets is great but I feel like it's outdone by other T4s. It's such a competitive economy for items lategame

>>503051156
I kind of wish items had more variable prices and or more complex recipes like ib dota. some 6200 items are just a scam. maybe more 7450 and 9200 items, some 6200 items get a little cheaper and weaker idk

Hunters aura only seems like it's worth buying on Abrams. Anyone else could probably benefit more from literally any other item.

>>503051156
Crippling headshot is probably better for warden due to his mixed damage

>Left click heroes dominating the meta
>People are bitching about Pocket and Dynamo

>>503052730
these posts are just extremely low quality bait at this point

>>503052831
Just run enchanters or reactive barrier against Wraith if lane gets too obnoxious, also play behind your trooper when she pushes lane up it makes landing her cards harder

>>503052970
No it's just suspicious how much whining there is over spirit heavy characters when we're in a gun meta, almost like there's insecure shooter kiddies shitting up the thread 24/7

>>503053015
She only got me with her ult once, but I was eating cards constantly, but managing to keep the wave below my stairs thankfully

I just couldn't fight her the way I wanted

Should have cubed that stun, if Yamato went for heavy melee right away instead of shooting you wouldn't be able to parry

>>503054157
You wish, woody

>>503053535
thanks
>>503054337
yeah I was gambling on beating the stun rather than cubing it. She probably thought the ivy would've got it.

Vindicta is built for bbc

>>503051459
>>503052441
Yeah, just one of those things.
I'm also kind of caught up between Crippling Headshot and Spiritual Overflow; I think the former is better because I can apply it in the middle of an ult and it still counts, rather than needing to proc the extra spirit before ulting with the latter

>>503054820
Big bLash cock?

>503054820
christ this general is quickly becoming unusable

Any ETA on getting to queue for a chosen lane? I hate going Solo

>>503056689
Get duo partner, in ranked beg for duo lane, quite often people actually prefer solo lane because they have bully hero

Why don't more people run melee charge on Haze? This shit seems absurdly good for her laning phase / early game

>>503049705
hope deadlock doesnt look too fancy, i feel like the simplistic artystyle wasn't hurting it's players at all and also itd be pretty nice if they decide to add like a map editor and stuff like that, it's basically impossible to make a cs2 map without a big team of people

dead game see in you in 18 months when the soft launch has no one interested

>>503039513
Thanks for the blog bro!

>>503047137
Viper killed my interest in the game.
I only played to fap to Ivy but a snake lady is just so much sexier and now Ivy does nothing for me, why play?

In all seriousness the character's sliding gimmick is so fun but I can't justify jumping to my pc at a specific timeslot just for a CHANCE to play the only character I have fun on anymore in an extremely unbalanced game mode.

I can definitely see myself coming back when she is added and has a cool skin where she has a cowboy hat or something. Until then I'm only really here for art and patch shitstorms

There should be an option to choose "duo" or "solo" in unranked queues. I play Dynamo and solo lanes can be outright unwinnable but in duo I can shine. Same with Ivy and Kelvin. Though Ivy does OK in solo because of her kit and gun.
