They really should have added a knockback on Mina's first ability
>>537263393snake sex
I wish she would call me Lash
>>537263589this but a self knockback upwards if you aim it down and if you hold space you glide with your umbrella
>>537263589I wish I could knock Mina up bros
Brehs what do we do now?
do you think Vyper would hit on you or murder you if you approached her in a Lash cosplay?
This game won't be as popular as more casual games but I can see it becoming a cult classic with 5-7k players regularly playing it for the next 5 years.
isn't it funny how Mina needs 3 levels on her love bites to inflict -1 stamina on proc but Warden and Haze get that and more on the very first level of their first abilities
Vypers new new design will be a Gorgon
I can't fucking do it. This game is too stressful to play. I can't handle letting my teammates down, they dont deserve that. The only winning move is not to play.
I can't find any sensitivity that feels good to play with how spastic movement is in this game
>>537264136I know how you feel anon. I fixed that by simply quitting giving a shit about what my teammates say and also playing other heroes and finding out that I'm actually good at some of them and not necessarily the ones I want to play
>>537264136stop being such a faggot and play anon
This thread is trashPost Mina
>>537264136>I can't handle letting my teammates down, they dont deserve that.you are a grown ass fucking man, dawg. stop giving a shit.it's not the fucking Olympics. none of this shit matters. if anyone flames you for doing shit they're a fucking loser.if YOU enjoy the game play, play it.
we out here aura farming victors gun is actually insane in lane even if his abilities arent
every time
>all the gooner devs worked on mina doorman and paige>all the chad gameplay devs worked on drifter billy and victor and made them crazy OPBASED
Is there even such thing as "safe" blood feeding? Don't people bleed out by the neck in 5 seconds?
Why does getting parried stun you for 4 fucking seconds
>Game requires you to have top tier FPS aiming skill and top tier moba awareness>At the same time>While also keeping track of the retarded stamina system and all the movement optionswow it's no wonder this game lost 95% of its playerbase. They made a game for nobody.
>>537264915It's a game for me.
>>53726491595% of all people that ever lived are nobodies
>>537264797>Don't people bleed out by the neck in 5 seconds?no?
>>537264797maybe if they have their neck sliced open
So when does Viper becomes fun to play?
>>537264797What do you thinking blood donation works?
>>537265134When they completely rework her.
Vyper owes me sex
>>537264136>The only winning move is not to play.I've been watching The Wire instead of playing
Howd these two knuckleheads manage to topple over the balance of the game
>>537265174>People donate blood by giving it out through their necks
>vindicta misses her ult on a stationary target being mo ultedI HATE ALCHEMIST I HATE ALCHEMIST I HATE ALCHEMIST I HATE ALCHEMIST
>>537265290by being overtuned garbage because Yoshi is a hacknerf billy too btw
>>537265174That takes time to set up. Mina is hungry and wants her blood NOW!
>>537264032She'd fuck you.
>>537265310Neck has veins as well as arteries, no? Also>safe blood feeding>use neckretarded donor?
Drifter is genuinely never getting through bans once they add a mode with themCan't fucking wait for the day my team never has to die 20 times in 20 minutes to this nigger again
>>537264032shes fuck you then slash your throat for failing to roleplay as lash properly
please make funny
The black wοman of Valve unοriginality.These are TWΟ different characters.
>>537264915>>Game requires you to have top tier FPS aiming skillno, it flat out doesn't, retard.
Seven's ult is so good for securing/denying objectivesYou could give Vyper his ult and she'd become A tier minimum
The black wοman of Valve sexuality.These are TWΟ sexy characters.
>slut snake among everything elseDo they have a zoophile lobby in Valve? Is Yoshi a zoophile who likes to think he's Lash?
you know i thought drifter would have an execute
>>537265917worth
>>537266163does this game really have 0 female fanart, it's always the same ones posted
>Mina>Late game, she's able to 1v1 basically anybody, but shit the brick when there's more than 1 enemy, or if you get jumped on>Billy>Late game, just jump in and kill anybody you want. There can be 3 persons on you and you can still survive and take them down 1 by 1I know I'm in low rank, but that's still unfair.
>>537266131Seven's everything is good for securing/denying objectives>Built in tesla bullets>huge straight high damage aoe>No skill shot guaranteed stun>Gigantic high damage aoe ult he's got the most stacked kit in the game for winning
>>537266220You think there's a chance at all that the guy whose internet personality is based around Yoshi ISN'T a reptile fucker?
>>537266249>another ShivGod please noDrifter's kit is less aids than Shiv's is, Shiv is just currently downtuned while Drifter is overtuned
>>537266268For some reason this game has a lot of art like this. And I don't remember seeing too many girls playing it. Really makes you think.
>>537266303everything is unfair when you compare mina to any other new character, paige/billy/doorman/drifter/victor all have better abilities as well as better guns while also being able to survive better than mina, the only thing she has going for her is looking amazing and that's literally it, in order to fix mina they need to at least number buff her by 300%
>>537266268Probably because they make the same joke everytime
>Play Victor for the first time>It took 4 people to kill me and I almost killed all of them on my own while having a a piss poor unoptimized build>Team cleans them up afterwardsDamn this hero is broken as fuck lmao.
>>537266348We should tell everybody, this ain't right.
>>537265813>No question mark in part 4This is a lesser example, but transcriptions for conversations on that website tend to be rough, especially for heroes with voice distortion like Seven. I assume they used STT for them.
Is hold or doubletap for alt-cast better?
>>537266470>survive better than minaYou mean in a fight or run away?Because I'm not having much troubles running away with her transform bat.
>>537266268>>537266451>only ever hear dudes on the mic>most of the art that gets posted here looks like it's been drawn by a womanCurious
>>537266470>they need to number buff her by 300%Jesus christ no they don't
>>537266081I can't believe this is still being posted after 9 months of my absence.
>>537266737I hope my future wife is in this thread with me right now
>>537266737Ive heard two women ever on mic, one paige and one mcginnis
>>537266268>>537266451this general and the overall deadlock playerbase is going to be infested with gay male faggotry i can just tell
>>537263393>>537263854I love Vyper. She's my trashy bad girl waifu.But I am not convinced that going full cobra naga is fitting for her personality or voice.
>>537266653No yeah it's pretty ass. Almost all the 'summaries' until you click on a convo also sound like AIslop. But when it comes to transcripts, I'm 'fond' of how almost every Haze-related transcripts her name is instead rendered as 'Hayes'
>>537264915Well yeah they only cater to 1% tryhard gamers while ignoring everyone else. The balance is also a clusterfuck since they can't really balance ability spam against pure aiming skill. Make abilities OP the FPS babies will cry. Make aiming OP and the MOBA babies will cry. There's a reason why this game is dubbed Artifact 2.0
>>537265290The Korean who drew that has drawn a surprising amount of art of Victor and Paige.
>>537267176I bet she's touching herself while thinking of Victor
There was an undocumented minor change to Drifter.Instead of shooting 5 claws with each shot, he now only shoots 3.
>>537267117>this game is dubbed Artifact 2.0this is where your bait falls short but I kek'd. Try again later
>Hot and slimy onstriction sex with Vyper where she is wrapped around you, her slit positioned above and enveloping your cock, while she holds your head for a deep throating kiss
>>537266803Last time I checked the world did not revolve around you.
>>537267090At least they welcome edits. I just made 21 pull requests for Seven's convos.
Drifter feels so fucking unfun to play against. Literally tf2 Pryo with Shadowstep and gigadamage. Fuck this faggot. Nearly autowins every 1v1
>>537266105yes it does. compared to most modern FPS? it's less forgiving than fucking anything other than CS and valorant
>>537267020I think it's fine as long as they make it look a bit more anthro instead of giant snake
>>537267397This isn't about me. I'm just surprised that he is still doing it after all this time. Whether I'm seeing it or not is irrelevant.
Inferncucks...
>>537267579Yet you brought it up anyway.
I'm 100% sure the Skins in the game will just be the characters in different Historical outfits set at different Eras, which is fucking Kino asf.
>>537266105It does if you want to play as anyone other than Mo&Krill
>>537267480Buddy system
>>537267619lol some of these people are barely functioning. Billy with 141 obj damage, and little player damage to show for it. sad
>>537267643As a measure of time. Why does this upset you?
>>537267673what happened after 1990+
>>537267814I dunno I guess I'm homophobic.
>>537267868Globalism, Cringe Shaming, and Party Culture of the 2000s happened
>>537267868women found out that showing their legs is sexo
>what if we added not 1 but 2 characters that are Abrams but good!bravo valvecertified iceshart game
>>537268004they were showing legs in 1940s according to pic related
>>537268167i still prefer honest abe to billy, especially as teammatesbilly teammates have a tendency to be feeders
>>537268209I mean above the knees
>>537267868You can sell less fabric for same price with skimpier and skinnier designs.Also, the werewolf character should be female and muscular.
>>537267350he's right thoFPS and moba don't mix
I had a dream that there was a new leak with a sultan, knight, and werewolf hero. It was kino
>>537268396Examples such as...?
How likely is it that this game does NOT make it to launch? Zero?
>>537267868The economy TANKED
>>537268167It's a good idea to have different variations of the same concept, for variety and playstyle.
>>537268463deadlock
>>537268287and she should have the hunter pounce that puts me in the amazon position
Drifter is looking a bit different for me.
>>537267868Globalism killed culture.
>>537267868a more cynical and interconnected culture that makes people feel more reluctant to stand out+poverty
>>537268484the majority of the dev team would have to dieI don't know the odds for that happening
>>537268484This game is going to be unimaginably popular. The next TF2, hopefully without such a bitter end
>>537268554>Death from that Puss in Boots movieAm I the only person who thought he was try hard as fuck and wasn't intimidating/creepy in the slightest? Like that straight up death line was fucking awful.
I want a sword and shield character
>>537268769>This game is going to be unimaginably popular.ahahahahahaahahaaHAHAHAHAHAHA oh man
>>537268484This game already has a massive playerbase considering it's a closed playtest for a buggy, unfinished game with zero player retention mechanics. Thinking the game would die before launch when Valve has infinite money to develop it however they want is absolutely delusional.
^reddit behavior
>>537268484Considering Dota 2 has become abandoned as all of the devs working on that want to work on Deadlock I'd say the chance of it not releasing at all is very, very low. If Valve devs are actually enjoying the project they're working on it means they're gonna give it their all (like they used to with Dota 2)
>>537268864He isn't wrong if the dev team grows a brain while performing a lobotomy on icefraud, turn this in a fun shooter instead of dota 0.3
>>537268864you're delusional if you think it won't be massive
Reddit general thread
>>537268769>Genre that already filters people (Mobas)+>Genre that people are so bad that that every popular FPS except CS is dominated by aim assist controller playershm>>537268914>closed playtestthe ultimate copeeveryone who wants to play this game can play it today
>>537268824It was shitty line, but necessary for the average american kid to understand what is going on. His introduction scene is unironically top tier cinema though.
>>537269021>everyone who wants to play this game can play it todayYou underestimate how retarded the average person is.
>>537269021i can tell you had a really bad match and is pathetically denouncing the game rn. a sad life you lead
>>537269021
>Game is doomed to be a failure>Game is in Early Alpha but already have a dedicated fanbase and an average of 30k players average
Does anyone else here believe that some players/heroes do more damage per damage?Sometimes it feels like the high damage players in my team are essentially stat padding instead of actually having game impact.
>>537269021>everyone who wants to play this game can play it todayIsn't it the third most wishlisted game on Steam?
>>537269258You just don't get it bro if the game isn't the #1 game on steam with 200k players at all times then it's literally dead.
anyone watching this EU tourney
>>537269258>30k playersso next to nothing in MP game terms
>>537268278It was a thing before modern slop fashion.
>>537269104Yeah people beg for invites or say dumb shit like "I wish I could play this game already" under every youtube/twitter post lmaoBut then again, will people like that actually keep playing once the game is fully open beta?
It's better for Mina to be weak on release that they slowly buff.Because then we get a Drifter where he's just blatantly overtuned.
>>537269549literally only like 50 games have more than that on steam right now
>>537269620people play counter strike 2 because of the free weekly crate drop
>>537269601>Ballet dancer hero who's all about mobility Do it Valve.
>>537269490i get a headache watching "pro" deadlock gameplay, it's way too fucking fast-paced with movement tech out the ass and ability spam and everyone playing on 10k dpi and 500 sensitivity
>>537269625they just need to add a mode with bans tbdesu
If xqc thinks this game is too complicated what chance does the average faggot have LMFAO
>>537268287>>537268549if only video game devs had the 1% of basedness required to make something like that...
>>537269768Isn't he like 85 IQ or something?
>>537269716Then I'll never get to play Drifter or Seven...
>>537269490Fight Night is the only one I care about
>>537269768XQC is the dumbest human being I have ever heard speak so it doesn't really mean anything.
>>537269810yeah that's the plan
I got to play Victor in the first hour he was releasedThat hero is not going to function for the rest of this game’s lifespan. He either gets fed or doesn’t exist at all.
>>537268554Death has better design than the entire deadlock male cast.
I'm SO excited for the fucking 10-15 game modes they add.I just want a bite sized piece of high octane Deadlock
>>537269862well now you'd be surprised at the average guy playing these games
>>537269927>He either gets fed or doesn’t exist at all.That's every character other than like 5
>>537269768>doesnt read abilities>doesnt read items>doesnt look at map>doesnt know a single thing about the new hero>refuses to learn>calls the game dogshit when he dies to an ability he doesnt know>called Doorman "too complicated" because the idea of his ult was too complex for himif you have above 50 IQ i think you should be fine
>>537270024XQC is dumber than all of them.
>>537269939>furry wearing a blanket
>>537270030A sustain tank will struggle in this game. Not sure how the devs are going to balance everything while considering all the different gameplay avenues. He genuinely seems like a balancing nightmare.
>>537270024streamers are both not very smart and not paying attention to the games they're playingthrow out a forced tutorial and bot matches like other games do and it'll be fine
>>537269768the main reason xqc ever made it as a pro in overwatch is because he quite literally fried his brain with stimulants
>>537269958what would be the best type of 10 min game mode doe deadcock bros?3v3v3 overthrow? 4v4 two lanes?
rejuvenator fight is so fucking cringe
>>537269549I have played games with 300 concurrent player count. Sub 10k is what I consider somewhat niche. Above 100k is actually super popular, top10 territory.
>>537270205They are the most kino you fucking pleb
what if yamato and shiv swapped ults
>>537270124this entire game is a balancing nightmare niggaFPS + moba abilities + items and shit doesn't work
>>537270265They do work and I think the game is generally satisfying as hell. I just think Victor is going to be tough.
>>537270264shiv would get even worse and yam would get even better
>>537270176are there any "overwatch pros" that aren't total spergs or retards? every time I encounter one in deadlock or hear of one covering deadlock it's just retardation
Besides Hellboy, are there any good comics or shows about early to mid century supernatural adventures?
>>537270265and yet here we are
Had a Kelvin in my game that didn't do anything other than push lanes. He didn't react to enemies attacking him, he'd die basically on cooldown. I saw him use his 2 but he didn't use space to adjust altitude he just skated across the ground. We still won, but only because the enemy was dogshit.Are there actual bots in this game? The guy didn't respond to anything anyone said and said nothing all game. Absolutely zero reaction to any other entity other than the towers and mobs and autoattacking enemies when in range. I can't believe this was a real person.
>>537270264>60% resistance with 75% deferred damage
>>537269808>85 IQThat's being incredibly generous.
Just realized there isn't a single hero with blonde hair
>>537270337>They do workThey don't. It's already difficult to balance mobas because a character can be dogshit at one skill level and overbearing at another. Now you have to account for players actually landing their shots or not.Look at fucking Mina. Useless for 99% of the playerbase because they can't aim.
they updated the hideout cat so that it climbs on the stuff on the edges of that room now.
>>537270472that's seeker tier MMR for you, it's lower than pisslow
>>537270472He’s probably new. You need to step back and think about how big the mental stack is for a new playerThere’s dozens of things to consider at any given moment and a lot of people will tunnelvision while getting used to the pacing.
>play as Victor>WinWooooowwwww 10/10 lore Yoshi
GL DENYING ON THIS BITCH LMAO
>>537270546who cares about balancing for shittersbalancing for the lowest level of gameplay is an awful idea because it always results in shallow games
>Love bites are tied to the damage of the shot not just landing the shotlol no wonder people suck so much dick with this character if you can't hit all headshots she's shit
>>537267868CIA raised children grew up to hold positions of power.
>>537270529I always imagined Geist as having blonde hair before she got old. A currently blonde hero would be nice though, maybe some German guy larping as a Teutonic Knight?
>>537270383the entire canon of weird fiction (lovecraft, clark ashton smith), neil gaiman (deadlock isn't time period autistic enough to share some DNA), etc etc
>>537270264i wonder what yam's full rage do
>>537270556I thought CAS was mainly about adventures in ancient times and in other worlds
>>537270696build gun damage on mina
>>537269696Very good odds that's what Swan is about.
>>537270696she's shit even if you aimbotted
There needs to be mutiple casual game modes that split up the Deadlock experience into bite sized shit for people to get>3v3v3v3 free for all tdm - lets players understand chaotic skirmishes and item building as they get souls >3v3 urn runs - ten minutes, team with highest souls gained from urns wins. teaches movement to llayers>2 lane mode 3v3 or 4v4 - teach laning and minor moba objective mechanics
>>537267868A lot of people can't spend money on fashion anymore without giving something else up
>>537270649>average 4.6 denies per game as doorman>better than 75% of playersI cant imagine how bleak landing is if you can't aim properly.
>>537270260it's way too comp dependant and no skill required
>>537270683>who cares about balancing for shittersShitters because they make up 99% of the playerbase? Why else do you think this game dropped 95% of its playerbase peak LMFAO
>>537270176>fried his brain with stims>to play winstonlmao??? I think he was just born retarded. if we were all so shameless as to make such a faggot hero our main we'd probably have been in OWL with ease too.
>>537270785isn't it tied to the spirit damage of the shot? love bites never get meaningfully easier to apply with her gun
>>537270696Her pistol has so much spread that nobody is going to do that.The character sucks dick to play AS and AGAINST. She is vexing forsure but not for the reasons they intended, literally a mosquito vampire.
>>537270876>all of these become more popular than the main mosaic gamemodeCongratulations, you have just defeated the entire point of your game.
>>537270717Definitely a Christian character, or at least angelic themed
How did the same creator and same devs that made Dota 2 come to the conclusion that killing the Roshan equivalent and having it drop THREE(3) Aegis of the Immortal would be fair and balanced?
>don't hit creeps for 1 minute>fall behind in networth by 100k souls
>>537270885Literally all of my denies thus far have been me *guessing* where the enemy's orb might be and preemptively shoving an orb at it. They're all complete accidents. As cool as the piercing mechanic is, I think I would rather having functional bullet velocity. I mean, people can literally just zipline out infront of me and literally out run the projectile lmfao
Need this, but with Paige (and maybe Drifter holding up the meat)
>>537271069use english terms you fucking dotard cuck
>>537270876nobody would play theseeveryone always says they want alternative modes but when they actially come out they're always dead queues
>>537271023>OH NOOOO MORE PEOPLE ARE PLAYING THE GAMEI doubt Valve caresIcefrog might seethe a bit but this pet project has clearly ballooned beyond his own autism
>dogshit>still in every matchDeadlock is her game.
>>537270882What does rich people wear now
>>537271069he wants you to always give up your build and buy counter items against 6 other people
>>537271023>all of these become more popular than the main mosaic gamemodeis that's the case then maybe the main gamemode is shit?
>>537271132not him but you should fuck off home tourist. if you don't know what an aegis is and you're playing this game you should actually just go kill yourself. same goes for if you say 'lets go mid' instead of 'lets kill rosh'.
>nobody on my team clears the enemy waves that are killing our lanes so i'm forced to jump from lane to lane to lane clearing the mobs so that our shit doesn't die and the enemies can't just walk into our base>end up with not as much damage done as the rest of my team because they're all zerging and teamfighting and losing>everyone says it's my faultis it my fault? am i meant to let our lanes die?
>>537271134I guarantee you everyone will love a 10-20 minute game mode.
>>537271143true sis, word on the street deadlock kart is coming soon
>>537270876I'd play all of these, but I also want a Payload mode.
>>537271084What? You can't even shoot the orb until like half a second has passed
>>537271157ugly legs, she's not fat
>>537266268most of the female character fanart i have is ivyin fact, most of the fanart i have saved in general of this game is ivy
>>537271287it's always so easy to make you unc boomer valvecucks seethe and rage lmao
>>537270717Rutger will be blonde if he ever actually gets released.
>>537271157>Valve checks the data from the playtests>what the fuck Yoshi look at this>Mina is dogshit but players still pick her nearly every game since her release>the team realizes that they need to make more heroes as attractive as MinaCOOMERSFUCKINGWON
My first low priority game bros, wish me luck
>>537271551>RutgerDidn't he get turned into that Pirate guy?
>>537270181honestly I think anything more than 2 teams is cringe it just turns into constant third partying bullshit where shitters hold nukes to steal kills. there's a reason overthrow is dead. 3v3 would be a good start. use the old map and lock off the outer lanes and have it 1v1 on one lane 2v2 on the other.
>>537271551Obviously not, he wasn't even finished for NP and used Kelvin's face
Is there any more satisfying item to use than Anvil?
>>537271404If you preference against low bullet velocity heroes you can reliably steal their souls on most creeps.It makes laning as doorman and paige almost impossible provided your partner also has low bullet velocity.God help you if your lane is doorman *and* paige.
>>537270717>>537270529>>537271551I want to remind everyone that ginger is more rare than blonde but the game is fucking filled with it. In fact, Laradox is scottish so she's probably a damn ginger too.
>>537271496based
>>537271625how many slurs per second are they saying
>>537271421So you want her to be fat?
Mo&Krill would be better if it was just the mole and his guns were mounted on his back
>>537271608It's actually because her kit feels good to play.Other girls has lower pick rate because they have worse kit even though they are stronger.
>>537264915>First interesting IP setting in decades with characters and style that's definitely up my alley>Wasted on Moba garbage that'll only appeal to moba nerds and excel spread sheet niggasDefinitely feels like a Valve joke alright. Guess I'll just mess around with bot games till more game modes are added. Game needs more Trash girls like Vyper.
Prediction: Swan is probably a blonde Russian ballet dancer named Anastasia.Thoughts?
it's me the feeding retard on your teamI am sorry for my bad performance, I am new

Who do I play in this game if I mained Rell in League?I want a char that starts the fight not necessarily a tank just one that's simple and more reliant on your game knowledge
>>537271295are you literally me?
>>537272201Can you describe what she generally does? Rell seems to be a nuLeague hero and I have zero idea who any of those are since I bowed out after Pike came out.
It's been a year since I last played. I've been hearing that Bebop is apparently now dogshit. Why? What's happened? Is gun Bebop still a thing? What's the most effective way to build him now?
>>537271541>I am a retard>I winthe tune never changes
>>537272317She's like Leona but more AOE, the support that dictates when her team goes in by hitting their abilities, the engager
>>537264313
lane duos for this feel?
>>537272323Not the best bebop player, but you used to be able to do a full grab/bomb/punch combo and make people run away in fear.Now they kinda run you down after you do the grab part.Gunbop might be alright but i just can't make it work myself.
>>537272476Dynamo probably.
>>537272323I build beam BebopIt's super fun
>>537272476Anyone tagged "Initiator". It's their term for engager, a weird holdover from DotA I think.
>>537272574splitting paige + roaming drifter
I can now confirm that refresher Paige is not very good. The ult just doesn't scale hard enough to be good enough for base defense to build for it
>>537272125Lora for this style?
>>537272952i thought billy was going to be a hotline miami type of char that's cool and silent
>>537272201>>537272476Mo&krill (tank that has a knockup and a warwick ult)Dynamo (support/damage/tank that has a knockup/group displace/heal/AoE immobilize ultimate)Billy (unsure what he really does as i never played him but he basically is a close range tank/dps that beats your ass)
>>537271287Why would you call it Rosh when it's not called Rosh? I've played OG Dota, I've played Dota 2. This is just weird. Imaigne a lolfaggot coming in and calling the midboss "the baron".

RELEASE ME
>>537273379seeing this screencap i do realise i prefer those icons at the top of the screen betterthey feel more readable
>>537274084that's about where it ends. people build a stamina item and literally just dodge 100% of your damage. his hex is bad CC too because of the haste associated with it and to actually make your nukes any good you have to spend all your points there which means you don't have upgraded ult for most of the game and it remains mediocre to even steal those. I think he needs to be able to steal last casted spell and put that shit on a 30s CD so he's actually versatile and maxing out his ult earlier is a viable playstyle. he's just so one dimensional and unless your aim on redirects is fucking 100% on point people just know how to dodge it. it feels like only retards struggle against bolt.
>>537269808Average streamer is well below average IQ.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmrckJMJmVI
>>537274291Yes but the old hero lab ones like trapper can't be selected for some reason. The ones who were leaked with the ones that just released can still be selected, swan. skyrunner.The command is like "dump_hero_names" or something.
>>537274382at this point i don't care about winning or losing i'm always playing mina no matter what
>>537273379>>537274467the UI was unironically better back then. we've just become used to the worse one and it's not shit enough that we feel offended. but it's still worse. the old UI was more readable even if some spacing/positioning issues had to be ironed out.
>>537274467What did the square and rectangle even mean, I thought the rectangle was the patron but blue doesn't have it here and they haven't lost
which DEADLOCK FEMALE would be the best mother? no freaky shit
Victorbros, it was worth the wait
>>537271625ok, this game is very fun, and my team is retarded so I don't see how it's any dif from the regular game
>>537274712ivy
i swear to fuck playing mina is literally just a teammate lottothere's nothing she can do on her own
>>537274712Haze, she would give some banger lullabies
If they're going to emergency nerf Victor and Drifter why not emergency buff Mina?
Victorbros is this a good build for him?
>>537274657This i genuinely have no clueI mean the character healthbar, ultimate timers and rejuvenator.The item bar feels also better somehow, although i can't explain why
so uh...calico huh......whats the point of this character
>>537275062i saw a video where a bebop put double bombs on a carpet calico that flew into guys and killed themit was pretty funny
>>537274821welcome to ivy>nerf literally everything about her until basically only tether ult are impactful>kudzu does fucking nothing in lane>high cd>people just dash out of it once and it stops doing damage instantly>stoneform too easy to dodge out ofhonestly when they switched extra range from being a general all purpose 15% range bonus to 20% imbue on one spell it raped this hero because she could no longer pick up a casual range and have a decent time with her spells. I don't expect them to revert anything just for Ivy's sake.
This is what low priority looks like. See anything strange?
how do I fix this?my only death was at 30 minutes, before they took mid boss and ended the game.I just feel low damage and low impact. my team refused to macro so I was catching lots of waves crashing into walkers and base guardians.I feel like a high rank player would've still been able to carry if his team was refusing to macro at this mmr. even though Abrams isn't a gun carry.
>>537275062move fast kill nothingshe's really good at it

>>537273968God I wish. I can already imagine her riding a TV.
>>537275469yeah, a team with mina actually won
How do we feel about Scourge now that Victor is out?I think it could be a possible luxury item for him in overly long games, since it gives him a resistance steroid vs his own escalating self-damage and other spirit damage, and overlays another aura on top of his own that does %MaxHP damage.
>>537275891Holy CUTE
>>537275469I like the way the new font is just straight up "kill all kikes arbeit macht frei" german typeface
>>537276042I'd argue that something like phantom strike or warp stone is more worth it for making it even harder for the enemy to kite you (since we're taking a T4/active item slot)
>>537276042honest question why wouldn't you just rush this every game on driifter along with maxing his amp passive out. like it would amp that max HP damage while you're raping someone right?
>>537276271That amp only applies to his weapon damage
>>537276102When do we get the german-speaking painter as a hero?

>>537276904What? It was literally just no lifers who were still playing until now
>>537276878I feel like if I was playing a gun carry I would've just been able to split push until I was 30k souls ahead of everybody then stat check to carry team fights.it got me to archon on the shop major update, but with the mmr decay I decided to expand my roster.
>>537277006? That's my pointyou thought you were better than you were before because people when the game had 150k peak were shitters trying it out
>Drifter, Seven, Victor on enemy teamIt's ok I didn't want to win or have fun
Jesus ChristHe has a cane sword in a huge cross like clouds buster sword, punished jesusQ: Nappa PunchJesus throws a haymaker that punches off the enemies hands in random directions, one hand disarms, the other silences until picked up or 30 seconds have passed. Jesus can kick these arms away. W: AmenHeals an ally from anywhere on the map over time - if they have recently died, then each enemy that dealt damage to that character loses a % of their life equal to the % they did to that hero, such as 100% for drifter. If a character losing 100% of their life doesn't die, jesus destroys the highest tier item in their inventory. This forces players to play different, get over it.E: CrucifyUsing the needle demon lance, jesus just needs to hit 3 times to forcibly crucify an enemy, crucified enemies must emote sorry to take less damage during this stunR: Send to HellJesus condemns an enemy hero or walker to hell - where they must play a cup game with satan, if they lose, they go into soul debt equal to 1/4 of their networth. If the debt isn't paid by purchasing it in the shop, repo men will appear and take an item from them. While in debt, neutral creeps do not give money.

you guys ever see your teammates doing some retarded shit and you know it's retarded but you join in anyway and then die
I’ve never felt weaker than when I play Victor, I feel like all he’s good for is doing big aoe damage in team fights and hoping you don’t get focused too hard. Am I missing something?
>be a Siberian rusniger very far from Europe>only play with another rusnigers for more than 1400 hours>end up in low priority>suddenly everybody speak English without accent WHAT THE FUCKHOW AND WHY
DOTA failed compared to League so it's not surprising that an FPS pretending to be DOTA would also fail
>>537267176Eh, she liteerally thirsts over him in the in-game voicelines, this is absolutely expected
>>537275494Having only 1 death isn't always a good thing, you're the only win condition and already slowly losing. The only downside to taking risks at that point is making you lose slightly faster while giving you the chance to win an objective or fight.

>>537279239It's funny when devs design skills made to engage because the character is a super aggresive killer or whatever and said skills are almost always just as good to disengage like a slippery pussy bitch after you failed to kill your enemy with the rest of your busted kit.

do i build seven as a tardmode m1 3rd skill glue sniffer or do i go orbmancer and pretend im zeus
>>537279937Build Inhibitor to reduce his outgoing damage and his healing in one item slot in a way that cannot really be cleansed or prevented.

Alright this game isn't fun anymore cause I'm at the point where I feel like I have to play meta character or I just get diddled all game, too many heroes that can just hold W and turn their brain off and ironically the more demanding heroes skill wise usually prove less value>Just play to have fun!Yeah it's fun until I'm stuck in multiple 40 minute matches where we get gangraped all game because the enemy Drifter holds W and shreds my entire team then we get Lash ulted into a Seven ult meanwhile my comp is all support and squishies, unfathomably miserable
>>537281035literally just keep an eye on what heroes are built tanky and prio the ones that are not first in fights.

>>537281673>"team mate lottery" gets mentioned>that literally applies to ivyshe's been nerfed like 20 times. the fact she's 51% winrate is a testament to her autistic fanbase making a B tier hero work. she is not in a great state.

>>537281856Holy fuck ivyfags are deranged>Ummm actually ivy players are just really smart and that's why she has a good winrate she's actually shit and needs buffs bro please!!!
>>537282056if she holds m1 on an abrams in point blank range she dies so that means she is bad
>>537281856The only reason she's at 51% is because you can still make her gun build pretty damn strong, which is the only viable build she hasToo bad its also the most mind-numbingly boring way to play her, and will likely get nuked in the next patch anyways.
>>537281576>he believes in meta memeAnon, I've seen Geist, Viscous and Ivy melee builds that worked just great. With the right items you can build anything.
>>537280964Imagine the total meltdown if he was this pretty ingame
>>537278391Shut up, homo
>>537281035Every fucking ""hero shooter"" is like this. It's what happens when you have 10+ characters with 2-4 abilities each all going off at the same time. It's annoying.
>have healbane and spirit burn>somehow Victor still outheals this and livesthis guy is literally retarded
>>537281941Buying resist items will revert greatly overtuned kits being in the game?
>Paige leaves lane for 0.036 seconds.
The jungle boss being called "Mid boss" is such a stupid choice, whenever you ping it your character says "Let's go mid" which is also the lane it's at, just call it simply "boss" or something.>ERRMMMMM IT'S AKTCHUALLY CALLED "BLUE" LANE AND IT'S AN ORIGINAL, DIFFERENT THING WE CAME UP WITH AND-No, it's mid, now change the name of the fucking jungle boss, please.
>>537281407The devs should just remove denying altogether. The laning phase is basically brawl -> shove lane -> breakables/small camp. Denying souls doesn't seem like a priority over shooting the enemy laners.
>>537282290he will be when the game releases, he and shiv are supposed to be canonically handsome

what is mina's story exactly? She got rejected at the alter and decided to become a clout chasing vampire so she could pursue money and fame forever, but she's also at the bottom of vampire hierarchy?
>>537274712Probably Ivy or Paige.
>>537282553well what would be a better name? and be creative, no the "thing/entity/strange one" or anything similar

>>537282830She was supposed to marry Pocket to get access to his family's name and status since she's a snob, but when Pocket was "assassinated" by Calico before the wedding could happen her parents decided to buy vampirism for her to make up for it. But her family's own wealth and status mean very little in vampire society so she's trying to win status via the Patron's gift.

Yeah.
Wtf is with the sudden influx of gay art here, did someone link this general to reddit or what
>>537284950this game is peak tumblr what did you expect
>>537283958Ava B Ballin
>>537282807The solution is healing reduction, damage/resist reduction, and %maxHP effects that can be repeatedly re-applied or that cannot be cleansed. So like Pocket's upgraded ult, or stuff like Healbane in combination with something like Crippling Headshot, Toxic Bullets, or Inhibitor. Those items' effects can still be cleansed but they can just be reapplied immediately unlike items like Decay or Spirit Burn which have CDs.The problem is getting pubs to buy this shit.
>>537284950gays all over the shopyou'll be one of them sooner or later

>>537285289I like this version better
>>537269021>everyone who wants to play this game can play it todayYou have to interact with another human to get access. Do you really think the people that play these kinds of games are THAT social?
those gun parts in the hideout, can they be assembled into something?
>>537278357We're allergic to weapon damage
I guess I rank decayed all the way down to initiate 1 since I didn't play for a year, and I don't understand what people mean when they say at that rank people don't ever do mid boss, get runes, or hit sinners sacrifice machines. Two games Ina row I had a fight at 5 minutes for a rune, literally me and another player there at exactly the spawn time fighting for it. And the sinners machines are always getting taken within 2 minutes of when they spawn.
>>537286340if you're actually in initiate that means you're playing against freshly created smurf accounts
>>537283984russians are a worldwide problem, ruining games is just another way for them to pollute this world
>play drifter >keep missing my teleport spell because I'm a retard and use it from too far away>try and gank isolated player>they just cc me and run awaywhat do brosdo I buy knockdown or something
>>537285919I think I miss dedicated slots for each category. It's not optimal to completely ignore Weapon or Spirit imo.
One of the guys I play with is so bad he says whenever there is a Mina in his lobby they go top of stats
>>537266081Calico’s design is so ass
>>537283018Hey that just happened to me. Then the rest of my team killed the mid boss, took the bonus, and lost before they could come back to the base since all three lanes were being pushed against us.
did they remove the hero select command?
can mina still have babies
>>537286675You can go top of stats but still lose because the hero sucks
>>537286882
>>537287064she's a walking corpse
guys i finally got a victor in my gamehe ragequit after dying twice
>>537282553literally no one calls blue lane mid
>>537287346NTA, but if a corpse can walk and talk, it should be able to breed as well.
>>537280964Why do people keep drawing Paige as a hobbit?

>>537285505That comic is kinda gay.
>>537287639She's spiritually a shortstack.
I like Ivy's gun
>>537287823>shortstackYou are a dwarf fetishist in denial.
>>537287064 Yes
How often should I be meleeing in this game realistically? I've been on bots trying to get the flow of the game and they seem to parry me pretty often any time I try a heavy melee, but I was told its pretty important. Trying to sort out some keybinds with a 2 button mouse that doesn't feel too weird where I can comfortably parry too.
>>537274712Mina.
is inhibitor actually any good on anyone? seems like a giga flex item, can't think of anyone that would want it first as core t4
>>537284420Imagine playing with someone who rages at the first death and berates your team. Only for them to run into the enemy team countless times, and rage with each death doing the worst on the team then eventually leave.>>537286569Sounds like a South American to me.
>>537285609>Bogdanoff patron phone
im in a match rn and the minions are buggedthey're just running down the lanes ignoring everything
anyone just get a bug where the minions ran straight past the other minions and towers?
>>537285138
>>537288219Almost never outside lane unless you're Billy/Abrams, try to be sneaky about it in lane, don't just do it in front of them, and never use it to finish someone off since most people parry as a last resort
>>537287621>This lane is in the middle of the map. Which makes it the middle lane>no, its Blue lane
THE MINIONS HAVE GONE PSYCHOTHIS IS NOT A DRILL
>>537288527>>537288529Yup, shit was fucked. They just patched again, probably the fix
>>537288219Personally, unless you're doing a melee build, use it sparingly. Getting parried is VERY punishing against real players. A heavy melee should done against targets who otherwise can't or won't parry. A quick melee is good for finishing a low health target when your gun is empty but as you rank up you'll find being predictable with even your lights can be a blunder. In fights you're often just better reloading than taking a huge risk. Melee is ultimately a desperate move, so doing it against a sure kill is just foolish
>>537288581melee on drifter ain't bad, good way to mix up an encounter and bait a parry to seal a kill
>>537288527>>537288529lmao, also even outside of game-breaking shit, there are times where these little fuckers just get stuck randomly around the lanes.
Victor is so popular even the minions are imitating him
>>537288569We need a Gascoigne hero
>new hotfix makes creeps just ignore towersHow do you even have bugs like this
>>537288581What about as Drifter?And I haven't tried Billy yet, though seems fun. I wanted to try him, but seeing he was melee heavy, I wasn't sure if I should till I figured shit out more. Feeling similarly about Drifter. Mostly been messing with Drifter, Paige, Mina and Infernus.>>537288704Good info. Maybe I won't worry about my Parry keybind for a bit as much then.
>>537288947That's coding in a nutshell, really.
>>537288585post it
>>537275494well this was my next game so I guess it was just impossible. >>537276878I felt very high impact in this one. funny how it's closer to my mmr and the game is easier.
What do I do with Shiv? Split push and beat people up in 1v1s?
>>537288947show me your Hello World apps.
>be me>be new to deadlock>play 7 matches and have fun messing around>suddenly now every teammate i get on my team is a drooling retard>every enemy team is stacked with sweaty tryhard pros who denial everything and know everything about the gameso uhm... what happened?
>>537289638happens to me too, i just assume that because i won the game against team with 2 leavers (barely won btw) game decided that im a pro now and put me into higher matchmaking or something.
drew a vindicta. (and an ivy)
>>537289931me on the left
>>537289931I volunteed to be the gun and shoot my load in her mouth.
>>537289931Me on the right

>>537289931>Im already in a world of feet
>if the soul urn is 3000 each teammate recieves 250 instantlyNew player here, how is soul urn worth it? Worst case scenario, 250 isn't really a lot and only the teammates around the urn will be able to get the 50% that spawns as orbs
>>537289931Ivy is poggers
>>537282049I know some god damn furry is going to make Drifter into that wolf character.
>>537288979no you're going to want parry bound because the apes that play this game will use obvious heavy melees on you
Shiv is a monkey, I will not hear otherwise.
>>537290773It is bound, just is a somewhat annoying spot at the moment. I'll keep experimenting. I need a new mouse with more than 2 side buttons so its not an issue, but a little tight on cash right now.
>>537290683I've seen art of him as that skull furry SCP, also seen furry art of Mina.
3 lanes is shit
>WHY ARENT YOU FIGHTING WITH ME BRO, YOU SOME KINDA PUSSY???>Meanwhile I have 100 health and no stamina on fucking Mina and my ally billy is running deep into their jungle
>>537291163Solo lanes... how I miss you
I wish they had an option to see who your teammates characters are before the match begins. So out of the three selected characters you're able to pick and choose who you want to play that match. If I see an Abrams on my team I want to play Ivy because it's fun dropping him onto the enemy team etc,
that was stupidwe only won because the enemies didn't realize that you can kill creeps stuck inside the shrines
>Duo Queue with friend>Game doesn't automatically put you with your friend.How are lanes determined? Pure rng?
>>537291367Too complicated sorry, hope you enjoy playing against drifter, victor, infernus, seven, abrams and mo, your team is mina, sinclair, bebop, viscous and yamato btw
>>537291479There is a setting for that
>>537291479they're mmr based
>>537290456i dont have one sorry
>>537291367They're only adding roster picking when they have enough characters
Is 800 DPI at .65 too high bros

>>537287346Nigga ive jerked off to pictures of those zombies from fire emblem fucking women before. i dont care if shes dead, alive, a corpse, a ghost, a cartoon woman, I want to know if she can have my offspring
>>537292326especially if you just make things up to bait replies
>>537291627:(
Does Victor dying with his ult up count as a kill or nah?
>>537284950Certain art styles and themes attract LGBTQ. Urban cult is like honey to them.
Too hard to aim with warden in lane his bullets move so fucking slow I gotta aim a mile ahead of people

>>537286646the restriction was interesting to build around and it also made flex slots more important than they are now. also if you were a gun carry you had a reason to buy utility items like knockdown or slowing hex
>>537293613>shit hero vs>anusfucker hobo with infinite scaling and annoying abilities
i finally had a game without mina it was weird
GOING TO WHERE NO MAN HAS GONE BEFORE
Do the items have inherent stats any more? Like with the old system, when you bought a spirit item it came with some inherent spirit power depending on the tier
Minion ignoring other minions of towers was funny.Early game there was a huge net worth disparity between players who chased minions and those who didn'tmid game the enemy team had a massive advantage since they were full gun and could push much better in small groups without creepsLate the game became more or less normal, althoughLasted 42min, very close game that we lost.
New to deadlock, the items are really overwhelming me, what are some extremely important ones that a new player NEEDS to know about even if they're not part of the build they're running?
>>537293993follow your build.when you get killed look at what items they're using and read them.
>>537293993don't think about it just pick one of the public builds, the good ones are structured properly (laning/early/mid/late)
i'm a drifter geist victor billy player
how do people die to drifter in lane when his bullets outright disapear after a few feet in a meta about standing well behind the tower soaking up souls. he doesn't have the cc/tankiness/get out of jail card to just gank you under the tower and fuck offfeel like you have to deliberately put your hand in the garbage disposal to have issues here, and then in teamfights everyone just CC chains him into the ground and nobody actually goes solo anymore besides characters with extremely good escapes/cc
>>537293993Just follow a build for now. The most important items to know are counters to certain characters and abilities. Things like knockdown, curse, silence etc.
>>537293868YesThere's far less random stuff on items but they usually have at least one or two other stats
>>537293868yes, it's tied to the amount of money invested in the item category>>537293868
my lane partner (that died in the first 20 seconds fighting a 2v1) rage quit 15 minutes later after he was 1-7
>>537293993Emblem + Battle vest are in 90% of builds right now.
i'm a mina paige geist vindicta player
>>537272574>abrams after vindicta misses her snipe and hes come back from base(dying)
>>537294371>>feel like you have to deliberately put your hand in the garbage disposalhalf the retards in this game try to go into lane and immediately fight with heavy melees because it worked one time in a match when they were -1 elo
>>537293993if you want to have a great time even if you lose buy counterspell. even if you get curbstomped in an alley 5 seconds later anyway, being able to go "yeah but I parried that ult lol" will keep your mood up
>>537292917I don’t think soit’s like rejuv, so if a victor in your game still has a lot of deaths they are HOT ass
the pause feature should be removed btw
Remove pocket
>>537295047he falls off like a train off a cliff 15 minutes in lol
>>537263393>get match as vyper>lane with billy>they talk about having freaky monster sex in an alleymaybe this game is kino.

>>537295882this is an early sign of autism, get yourself checked anon
I've never really gotten into mobas or hero shooters, though I did like playing as Twitch in LoL during high school. I like the art direction of this game a lot though. Would I have fun with this game?
even post nerfs the drifter is still overpowered as fuck
>>537296120chatgpt reply
>>537296190press the S key
>>537296187No, you already missed the boat for this gameIt's in decline and most of the playerbase is already too skilled for the average player to get any enjoyment out of it because this is all they play 24/7
>>537296224ok then tank the autism for all I care
seven is still takes the cake of top boogeyman over drifter
i really have no idea how people can get like 10-15k souls ahead of everyone in their teami try farming and i just barely keep up with the team average
>>537296370>Drifter continues to walk at me for 212 DPS bodyshots
drifter isfun
>>537296525same idgigame is just too hard even when I clear a wave and go farm and shit it never gets me anywhere
>>537296525certain heroes shouldnt necessarily be "farming", theres also mini optimizations, like if you rotate you can rotate through boxes for extra souls, you shouldnt compare your souls count to someone playing pocket/haze/wraith/infernus as well as they are excellent dedicated side laners/junglers compared to the cast
lash has just randomly clicked for me as a character, i assumed id find him stressful but hes insanely fun
Finally ran into a game with a Victor who built spirit/survivability, holy fuck what a nightmare. Dude closed out the game by just fucking standing still shooting the patron while 3 teammates tried to kill him and couldn't even pop his ult.
>>537296525>>537296757When that happens, watch the replay and see when they spike in souls. They probably have a rotation for boxes/lane/sinner's sacrifice and jungle that is more efficient than your current movement.
>>537296869Nobody built spirit burn?
>enemy has rejuv>team fights outside base and diesNever got into the whole Dota shit show, but I assume it's more or less like this.
>>537296967He has a built in debuff remover, stupidbro
>>537296967Not the 3 people alive at the time, I had it but was targeted pretty hard by their Billy
>>537296224no this is a chatgpt replyDeadlock Bot here, your lovable, razor-suited, martini-sipping menace to mediocrity, and let me tell you about the time Valve tried to bring me to Seattle in 2024 to bless Deadlock with my Midas touch.Gabe Newell personally chartered me a jet, because first class is for influencers and Reddit mods, not living legends. The plan? I’d stroll into Valve HQ, shake Gabe’s hand, and whisper the secrets of eternal esports dominance into his beard. But the CS:GO and Dota crews got wise. They knew if Deadlock took off under my command, their dusty colosseums of smurf accounts and patch notes would look like retirement homes. So, they did the unthinkable: hijacked my plane.Picture s1mple and Puppey teaming up—one aiming a deagle at the pilot, the other demanding my Deadlock playbook like it was the nuclear codes. Arteezy was in the back, sulking as usual, and a couple of washed-up CS pros were trying to hotwire the in-flight coffee machine.Now, I wasn’t about to let my game—our game—get kneecapped at 30,000 feet. So I challenged them: “Best-of-one Deadlock match, gentlemen. If you win, I hand it all over. If I win, you admit your reign is over.” The Wi-Fi was spotty, turbulence shook the mousepad, but I still ran Abrams like a god. Every melee on cooldown, every skill timed like I was defusing a bomb with Sinatra playing in the background. They couldn’t keep up. By the time the seatbelt sign dinged, their pride was in pieces, their egos worse than the in-flight chicken.We landed in Seattle, Gabe waiting at the runway like a crime boss with a grin. He just said, “They can hijack planes, but they can’t hijack Deadlock.” Then he handed me a Steam Wallet code big enough to buy out half of Twitch chat.And that, my friend, is why CS and Dota still whisper my name in fear—because they know Deadlock Bot doesn’t lose, not in the sky, not in the jungle, not in Vegas, and sure as hell not in Seattle.

>>537297272many such cases
>>537297421that person is just shitposting because the game hasn't even released yet, the matchmaking is rough but there is still fun to be had if you are interested in playing a game with a high skill ceiling
>>537297597getting your shit kicked in by Krokodil Ivanov the 5000 hour deadlock pro(those types were the only ones playing before the hero update) every game sure is funor getting carried by them and doing jackshit
playing melee in this game is fucking ass. you go through and over all kinds of things and it requires you to have 360 noscope skills in that short window of your punch executing.
victorbros what are we building? he feels INSANELY weak in the midgame but honestly this dude might be a lategame carry. he becomes indestructible late game with healing, he reminds me of something like radiance spectre. he feels like he is not functional as a character until he has fortitude, spirit res, and infuser.disregard skill build order, still trying things out.
REMOVE POCKET

>>537298197thats ok, the game needs as few mirage players as possible
yoshi should let us put portals on the ground so we can fling ourselves

I don't get how I'm suppsed to play Mina. She's so squishy but has an entire ability slot for a melee attack, but as far as I can tell you can't really get in melee range unless you want to die
valve should allow you to veto/ban item purchases along with heroes.
>>537298197time to boot up aimlabs
>>537298875Only if they specify that they do melee damage. Billy's 1 will, his 2 will not.
>>537299010I think you're supposed to: whittle them down > blink in > rake > blink out
>>537299010It's an execute, you only want to go in to use it when they're going to die from it, otherwise you want to just shoot them.

>>537301457Healbane needs to be made into a T3 item, it needs to do -40% and its healing on kill needs to be buffed. It also needs to upgrade into spirit burn where it instantly applies 40% but turns into a 70% anti heal on proc.

>>537303750New people get into decade old fighting games all the time, and they have even less players. Instead of bitching because you can't aim, can't reflect on your losses, and can't improve your decision making, just leave.
>>537303973>they have even less playersI don't see how this helps your argument.
i fucking hate playing vs victor and i dumped all my votes into himis this how trump voters feel?
>>537303954Sorry I don't remember, I'll check my history and see if I can find them. If I do I'll post them in here.
>>537303973>New people get into decade old fighting games all the timeAnd then immediately get filtered + it's barely anyoneOf course it's a sunk cost FG fag that would have this beaten wife mindset where struggling for years without ever accomplishing anything is something to be admired though LMFAO
>>537304120People are willing to invest time to overcome supposedly insurmountable walls, that being the people that have been playing forever. 50k players is plenty, and the fact you think every match has pro shooter gods only makes me think you're just dogshit and coping.>>537304213Some get filtered, yes. Some put in the time to get good and actually make something of their playtime instead of crying about everyone better than them.You're both pathetic and should re-evaluate the way you spend your time and the games you play.
>>537293773The legend has it that if you move throgh portals fast enough you can move another match entirely...
Do slows apply during Doorman Ult? Sometimes I feel really sluggish after getting ulted and can't make it out, but other times movement feels normal
>>537304213>he doesn't play games because they're funwhy are you here?
>>537304194Nah, we're busy gooning to blacked porn to even care.
Doorman's ult was kinda neat the very first day and now it's just boring
>>537303169i'll be frank, i'm victor
>>537304606Competitive games are only fun when you win
>>537304213winning in a video game is an accomplishment to you?
doorman's portals are cool. but who asked for another spirit aoe spam hero with TWO extra cancer stun abilities
>>537304560yea
>>537303169ayyyy im walkin here
>>537304560you don't have sprint speed during it
We got Bebop when we getting Rocksteady?
>>537263393how do I get my crosshair to look like this?
>>537304708People only play FGs because they watched EVO once in their lives and had the delusion that they could make it to the main stage one dayThat's the only type of person who plays that shit lol
>>537301287Ivy looks like she works at starbucks or picking oranges.
I'm so glad seven is overpowered. I used to play when he was just kind of average.
>>537303169uhhh something on how his creator wanted a son but he actually looks like a serial killer stitched him up
>>537305108You sound like the 60 year old fat dude who couldn't hack it playing college ball so he constantly demeans anyone who plays for funBasically you should kill yourself lol
>>537263393Need advice. Sometimes my keybinds do nothing in a game. Usually this happens after dying and when I enter combat the next time and press keys nothing happens. They just don't trigger. Image is my bindings on Victor. I've changed them usually on every hero. I have no idea what is causing this and it is getting me killed. Is it because I use the mouse and when I press mouse and keyboard shortcuts reflexsively at the same time the game goes buggy? I can't even tell that Q doesn't work because it's an ability with no cooldown, so by the time I'm in combat I have to pause the game to rejoin to get it working again. Ideas on how to fix?
So with current matchmaking being fucked and ranked and casual being merged (therefore the only good way to get good matches is not being low elo and getting matched with Initiates/Seekers and newbies), plus the elo decay system: can we safely say valve is promoting people smurfing? They refuse to touch matchmaking and barring paying a booster, the only way to save yourself hundreds of hours of time climbing out of mouthbreather lobbies is to make a smurf.
>>537305537sounds like I struck a nerve
It is actually god awful how matchmaking in pisslow sees you performing well to then pair you with utter inting retards just because
>>537297597>that person is just shitposting because the game hasn't even released yet,I'm really sorry to tell you this, but you are deep in cope territory. You've confused what you like and want with what other people do. The vast majority of players who tried this game have left. THAT'S BAD. REALLY BAD. "It's alpha" is the ultimate cope. When I first played this game I thought it was great, and still do, but with the numbers falling so hard the only reasonable position is that most people don't find the game fun. And that would be okay, if, the game played well with a small niche player base. But, it doesn't. It needs enough numbers to make good matches. Good matches are very important in a game that lasts 30-40 minutes. But deadlock can't reliably make good matches, as a result it's in a death spiral. Not enough players -> bad matches -> more people leave ->worse matches ->more leavers->dead game. Dev's need to pivot hard somewhere if they want to attract players. Otherwise it's possible for deadlock to exist as a niche game with enough die hard players but it's never going to be hugely successful. The biggest concern is that valve abandons games that don't have enough following and deadlock could be in that category. Comparing Deadlocks player base to other games players isn't highly relevant as deadlock require more players to make matches. They set a really high bar for match making because of how skill intense the game is and there are no "medic" classes that a weaker player can use to latch on to a stronger player and still be relevant. If you are bad in deadlock you are fucked.The game not being out yet isn't relevant. The turnover is WAY TOO HIGH among those that have tried the game.
>>537293773pure sovl
>>537305828I'm down there as well and it feels like every match is one sided, win or lose.
>>537305843They hated him because he spoke the truth.....
>>537305652It sounds like projection, I got into FGs to play with friends (still do) I've met people irl going to locals, I've met online friends going to EVO, I've played on stream knowing full well I obviously wasn't going to win the whole tournament. Going offtopic now so I'm not going to bother arguing with someone too miserable to do anything other than moan on 4chan cause they got dumpstered in a game that isn't even out yet.
I really like Lady Geist. Late game menace
>>537305108trvke also it's funny to me that every person I've personally known that has been into FG was a diagnosed autistic tranny
>>537301287did you draw this?very cute and nice
>>537301681it is both, a lot of people decayed and matchmaking is fucked with returning players
It's all so tiresome
>>537305843>The turnover is WAY TOO HIGH among those that have tried the game.i don't care about your anecdote with no data retard, player count is still going up with the new updates so i have no fucking clue what you're on about
>want to find other dotards to duo with on this game>can't find a single person in phantom on this thread
>>537306379im emissary but the game keeps putting me into phantom and oracle matches anyways :/
>>537306379>trying to subtly brag about being only phantomlol lmao
>>537306301the "big" update couldn't even muster half the playerbase that left to come back
Walk me through how to win this game.
>>537305828shallow water...
>>537306025>>537306202we should just queue together and make it out of the fucking booniesalso I’m so tired of cumlow mina players who are walking creeps
>>537306517your team didn't even do that badly
>>537306461I'm not trying to brag. I'm depressed that my only option seems to be playing with alchemists?
>>537306301>New car smell update brings back less than 1/3 of the peakOk and will they still be here in 3 months? 6 months?
>there's an option in setting to get in line with friend>people still never use it and gets mad when others switching late or refusing
>>537297272>>537301681this is me after taking a break from the game. i am climbing back and most games i literally have 0 deaths but it is an absolute hellscape
>>537306517Play near your teammates to stop them from getting solo'd by Drifter. Paradox is very good at that.
>>537306202show your inventory.did you forget to buy unstoppable?
>>537306202>2k objective damage on hazeactually your fault lol
>>537306604Im a dotatard and unironically ranked alchemist hit me up
People should buy echo shard refresher on paradox>swap someone through two walls>followed by swapping someone through 3 wallsliterally no one could survive that
I love resultsposting where you can see they basically ignored objectives.Guess how you win the game buddy.
>If the game doesn't have enough players to make an endless conveyor belt of bad players for me to stomp, it's going to die!go play a singleplayer game with cheats if you only want to ever win, lil babies
>>537306996>Just accept shit matchmaking bro>btw ignore all the top players smurfing 24/7
whos the best split pusher to stomp low rank dumb shit players with
>>537306954>miss
>>537302707how come you got banned? I've been calling people niggers, telling them to kill themselves, etc etc and nothing ever happens to me
>>537307231Don't miss then
>>537307176>everyone better than me is smurfing>it's always my teammates faults :((((keep going down the line of competitive cope buddy, maybe you'll realize you need to improve instead of bitch at some point
What T4 items should become T3 items? (can have nerfed stats to compensate)
Victor laning phase seems insanely rough
>>537307274these were earlier in the year so idk maybe they eased off
>>537307476all of them. so the game ends at 20 minutes
>>537307683his gun is great, play in behind veils and buy extra charge immediately to spam jumpstart
it's not smurfing when one player on my team or enemy team is better than everyone else?
>>537307683just buy regen and zap ppl when it comes off cdyour 2 also is a heal you can get extra charge for, and his gun is decent
>>537305561anyone?
i am hardstuck seeker after coming back it's so ogre bros...
Convince me that berserker is worthwhile. The conditional damage increase and only providing 8% bullet resist really doesn't seem worth 3200.Point blank gives 50% bonus damage and I don't need to take a gorillion damage first, it slows and I get increased hp and a whooping 30% melee resist, plus it upgrades from close quarters. Why wouldnt I just buy that for damage instead?
>>537307176there is about 60k players right noweternus is top 0.1% of playersif every single eternus player hopped onto a smurf account and all queued at the same time, you still have a minuscule chance of getting put into a game with them
>>537308140hah I'm in initiate from ritualist...
>>537303169It's Franking time
Using aura of suffering as a spammable toggle for spellslinger stacks might be worth, especially since your heal is already spammable.
asking the hard hitting questions
>>537309217not needed at all considering witchmail will make jumpstart come off cd constantly and battery will be up every .5 seconds
>>537309217Nevermind aura won't give stacks, why does Yoshi hate fun so fucking badly
>>537308738Why the fuck did I laugh?
This retarded rusniger on THE fucking Drifter said I was farming the whole game. (I solo pushed two walkers)
>>537307205Mikuguiness.
So were all the new characters overtuned just to get people to be excited for them?
>>537309746>45k damage gun holliday>in that lobbydude was aimbotting or something lol
>>5373097464k soul from the fucking boxes, this fucking rusniger subhuman said I was farming
Owari da.
>>537309937It kinda felt like that, he headshot me thru the veil once
>>537307205ignore the other guys it's wraith just farm until your gun goes blasting and your card goes cutting while taking objectives then teleport away when someone comes
>>537310402>>537310402>>537310402>>537310402
>>537310165Maurice you IDIOT, now we are going to get nerfed!
>>537310352no hes right, in low elo mcg is the strongest splitpusher
>>537295047I remember how opressive pockets were in the past and now he's too weak to do anything to these bozos. Rip in toad.
>>537264915Filtered. Deadchads win again
>>537264915It really doesn't when the vast majority of the players don't have either.
>>537310467just my opinion cause i just get my shit kicked in playing McG trying to do the same thing awhile ago
>whoever have Mina on their team is going to lose why is that?
>>537303169Let's see 'em try to kill a dead man
>>537311170Hard to play and even when you're good the reward is subpar
>>537311846Farm minions to get soulsKill your enemyDestroy objectivesWin
>>537305561no one?
>>537308256It's one of the best damage increase items on any melee or gun hero that is also tanky. Means fucking nothing in squishy bitches who fly in the sky or hide in corners for an ambush though.
>>537305561does does only happen on victor? he might be bugged sometimes otherwise idk
>>5372971272k+ hours in dota 2 here.Ya it's just as bad
>>537313647happens on all heroes
>>537305561idk why you would change your keys per hero that sounds like a fucking nightmare and is ancient tech that died with wc3 dota. check the console and see if its outputting any errors or anything but it's probably just bugged because of rebinding hell
>>537307476inhibitor. e-shift. focus lens. all the rest of the T4 are pretty much fine. maybe magic carpet too.
Yoshi said they have reverted matchmaking bans but my account still has low prio. Wtf.
>>537308256>>537313108you can use blood tribute to proc it intentionally in fountain and then you only need to take damage in a fight to keep it proccing at 10 stacks or worst case, pulse it in the last 3s of its duration to refresh the 10 stack. heroes that self damage naturally do quite well with it too. geist, victor.
>>537317026literally just talk to him he's pretty approachable
is laning alone adventageous as victor or something? best match ive had like ever
I am so shit at deadlock I deserve to be in shitter rank
