Do the tutorial, get a feel for each hero in sandbox mode, explore public item builds, watch replays. Playing a Hero for the first time will put you into a lower rank game*, so don't worry about it too much.

no, especially since her only viable build got nerfed due to tether changes
hitreg for her ult can feel extremely in consistent and it's not even that much damage unless you're dumping spirit items into her and getting lucky with headshot bonus damage since headshot reg for it is even worse

1 - is now a wave like weavers beetles in dota
can buy items to make it wider and go longer
still saps hp but also a stacking bleed at higher tiers. need to use stam bar by jumping/rolling to remove beetles

2 - tornado goes but leaves mirage behind
now it blinds reducing hit chance
at 5 it can lift people

3 - eh keep it best part of kit rn

4 - instead of teleporting mirage he gives nashala to an ally
she will shield this ally and give them the ability to do a weaker version of djinns mark
at max rank the target recieves a dust shroud that acts as a free return fire

it's called throwing in mix-ups. don't just lean on the heavy punch. get close, don't punch, but act like you want to punch. the second they parry, you rev up a heavy punch.

you can also rev up a punch and then swing sideways to avoid the parry. or just throw in light jabs in between gunfire.

I feel so lost and so retarded playing this game even with thousands of games of Dota. I don't know how to gank, how to quickly get around without tp scrolls, and feel like I'm not picking up the items at all, like I generally follow builds but couldn't put one together myself.

>>538094965
his entire existence is revolves around his Ultimate. youre the best hound dog for your team when it's off CD. 3 minutes and 50 seconds(?), it should always be used when READY to use. Otherwise, youre wasting your time and everyone elses, even the enemy team. you should be using your ult every 4 minutes. Not a joke. With Trans Cooldown, it becomes 2 minutes and 40 seconds.

The average person will hold on to it for their "big moment" ult but there is no fucking point, the moment will come when it arrives. The ult should be used for 1-3 people to just straight up kill someone every 4/3 minutes. its insane when you think about it.

anyone with a ultimate with a ""long"" cooldown should be doing the exact same thing. Seven is probably the only example because everyone's ultimate is sub 115 seconds. Hell, anyone's ultimate off cooldown should be used for the exact reason, to use it. period.
>>
>>538095784
steam recording tags events in game and you can hotkey to clip last x amount of time but I don't even use that because it's so fast to seek to your event, set up a clip, and export

tip from an ascendant mcg player: she shits on mediocre players but she gets tronced by any team with the brainpower to track her locaiton at all times

anything is viable at low elo if you actually understand the strengths and weaknesses of it

but specifically yeah turret build is solid with escalating and T3 med spec/range, but u also gotta consider the enemy comp and how many escape buttons they have innate to their kits

i've been buying CC and spirit items and ivy and going 2/4/26 or something every match and i just keep fucking winning games this way
i just fly in and press all buttons and rape them with a million crowd control effects and debuffs and even the most retard mouthbreathing retard can click on the hero with 1/4th HP who is stuck in place to finish them off so i just win every teamfight for my team and even bail out retarded overextending carries by throwing myself into the enemy team so they can flee
rat game is decent too because i'm just hard to kill
i finally cracked the code, the team with the dedicated CC guy wins 80% of the time and no one ever builds this in my rank so i'm just collecting free Ws

the gods honest answer is you play hyper hyper paranoid and focus on breaking safe boxes and safe camps, and you let lanes push a little bit before clearing them

if your team isnt retarded you will get a comeback urn and a punish kill or two and then even out in the midgame

if your team is retarded then none of this matters because someone is going to eat all the farm and leave you broke and then you'll always be down 1-2 at all times and then lose in slow motion

Love playin Vyper, but lost the teammate lottery three times in a row. I didn't play well but the enemy team was just too grouped up that I don't think I could have carried this even if I was good. Our Lash/Abrams just fuckin left whenever I'd show up to try to help them. And every Doorman I've ever had on my team has no idea what his buttons do. I think I was in a fight at the same time as Vindicta like twice.

Yes, especially with stacked debuffs and EE. Honestly not a bad idea to focus turret mcginnis when you start tovlearn optimal locations and what makes them optimal for that situation. But yeah, low ELO is basically a guaranteed win if you have enough farm because that shit becomes Helms Deep.

I have noticed that this starts more around Arcanist. It's not so bad, but I have had silent teammates that won't listen when I tell them they're rushing too far ahead in the fight and I'm either getting spit roasted in the backline, or am just getting to the fight as they're dying.

Closing out games is a lot harder in deadlock compared to Doto/League. The design of the stronghold is so heavily skewed towards defense that even with a huge lead the defenders can still fuck you all up and turn the game around.

Is this something that should be fixed? I know it's impossible for them to get everyone at a perfect 50:50 W/L ratio, but if I've got a Lash and Calico on my team and both get destroyed in lane, the Calico is going to be pretty useless, but Lash can always be threatening in a teamfight by pressing 4

So, best case scenario lore wise to win and summon the Patron?
Probably something along the lines of Paige, Victor, Viscous, Ivy, Dynamo, Warden? That is assuming everyone gets their wish granted BEFORE Warden does whatever it is in order to destroy the summoned Patron. Maybe Kelvin or Holliday could replace someone

Dynamo and Kelvin have AOE abilities. Aim matters a bit for everyone at the start during the laning phase but tends to dissipate for some champs later on. You need an invite btw?

paige is the most retard friendly hero if you play her with all the support items but unless you build full spirit (magic damage) items and somehow also manage to not die while doing so she is a fairly low impact hero.

but i buy toxic bullets and all 3 slowing items every game.

You guys won.

I wrote this post on /v/ two days ago and ended up playing 10 full games since then. All the MOBA aspects are daunting at first but luckily I noticed the Auto Queue Buy thing before my first game which made it so I didn't even have to open the shop once. Even without knowing what the hell my opponent's characters were doing I did totally fine just landing abilities and not overextending. After getting my feet wet and later watching a video explaining midbosses, urns, and slot machines everything is way less intimidating. Also, I feel right at home with the advanced movement mechanics.

I was going to uninstall after playing the tutorials, but the strong first impression the game made with the cool hideout and character select which forced me to give a real match a shot. I can see why Valve ditched Neon Prime's "cyberpunk where heckin crime is legal" direction (reminds me of SEGA's Hyenas). The Dishonored look is way better.

Dunno how much time I'll end up putting in this game but it surprised me to say the least.

Welcome! I'm also new to the game and learning it has been a fun experience so far!

It pays off to learn your characters and experiment in each match just messing around with your abilities and learning your playstyle!

I just embraced the grind and learned to make my own builds. I'm a passive player that plays support, so I tend to focus on abilities and helping teammates instead of doing raw damage.

Some of the builds are good and they each have their own playstyle so eventually you'll find one that meshes, and by looking at the similar items per hero you can figure it out. Tracklock might help you filter the shit builds out though. Drifter especially has a lot of dogshit builds

Play around your 1 until you land your 2 then wait to kill them with it. Idk he's weird as fuck and I had triple your deaths in one game. Just keep trying him. Kinetic dash is mandatory on him, backstab probably too (but get it early)

Judging by your stats you actually did quite well in this game. In my experience, mix around your builds. Remember that you don't have to play optimally, find an ability or playstyle you like and play around that. I rarely see people buy the reload item for example but it has come really in handy in characters that supposedly don't need it.

Given that matches last 30 minutes, your drifter had an average lifespan of 65 seconds.

Every game I tell myself "I'm going to be a lane janny and when I do so I WON'T overextend so Drifter or whoever is roaming can't sneak up on me" and then I overextend

I understand from watching guides that as long as you push an extra wave of creeps your own creeps will continue marching forward until they get to the next objective as long as they're not stopped by an enemy player, but I don't know what I should be doing to stay productive after I set that up. Pushing along with the waves gets the little guys there faster but risks overextending, and farming stuff that's not close by generally gives worse souls per minute (and also leaves you exposed if alone). Do I pick up urn and try to start an opportunity for a team fight/split push? If I see a big fight just starting should I rush over there, assuming I don't have the firepower to solo a walker and get out safely? That's the kind of macro stuff I struggle with.

Gun Holliday is the most fun I've had in this game so far. It's like prenerf Amby Spy but you get sick mobility and nice cc on top of that.

And there's something incredibly satisfying about everyone else having to jump through hoops to pull off some occult magic bullshit while you can just show up bang bang bang blasting and clicking heads with a pistol.

>>538109449
wave management as in forcing the wave to a point in the map that is both defendable and easy to gank. so imagine the wave is on the ramp upto our walker right and we push it out every time and you're expected to come ALL the way over to farm the wave. this leaves you away from your own towers, it takes time to rotate to help you, you're vulnerable and easy to gank. if you're behind, you just get raped on repeat. pretty much they'll do this as long as it takes them to get the items they think they need to close out the game. could be one big ticket item like leech or refresher.
>>
>>538140767
it's just "decent" because it's hard to hit, but it still heals you 2/3rds of your HP and gives you like 5 seconds of invulnerability so you can do stuff like stall a 1v4 in front of a walker while your kudzu and torment pulse slowly kills it and the enemies can only cope about only
>>
>>538140895
yeah you want to know the best part emissary is the rank below archon and they're actually pretty decent at comming and macro. this ranked system is not indicative of skill. it's just different perceptions of meta. so archon retards think they don't need to watch the map and just brool. low oracle is much the same. high oracle/phantom actually play like normal humans.

I wish valve would've picked a specific point in history and actually adhered to it instead of squandering it. The setting just feels way too lose with its time period to the point where you have to wonder why they even bothered at all.
Like, it's supposed to take place around the late 40s but thematically speaking it could be anywhere from the 20s to the 60s and that's just awful. Imagine creating a game that takes place in 2020 during the pandemic but everything seems to be stuck in 2002, it doesn't make any sense and it doesn't serve any purpose.
Even then, they don't dress accordingly, they don't speak accordingly and the interface and music is way too modern. They even insist on having graffiti everywhere.

The great depression would've been an obvious good choice, with anyone desperately looking to get a wish granted.

what are you meant to do after winning lane?
do you stay in the lane and push the walker or help the other lanes get their guardians?

>>538142251
depends on your role but yeah usually you will want to start assisting other lanes or farming neutral camps/boxes, one person should at least stay near lane to delay the enemy from getting your first guardian as well

>teamfight characters are the most fun

i genuinely, genuinely do not understand. if i have a team that actually pushes lanes, it's an auto win. If i have to do it, i end up 10k+ net worth above my whole team and the enemy team buys THREE knockdowns to chain stun me to death.
Why doesn't anyone fucking push? don't they want money to buy items? are they content to just have no money and lose every fight?

If they are all on one lane, that means that the other 2 are free for the taking. I almost never join team fights, I just push lane. Sometimes my teammates call me a retard for this, and my low K/D doesn't allow me to defend myself, but when we lose, I often have the most objective damage on my team.

it's fucking dumb. i might just start playing mcginnis and go magic carpet because it genuinely feels like there's no way to win a game besides avoiding teamfights completely.
like, i lost 4 games in a row where i had the most networth because people sit in the fucking jungle and watch troopers buttfuck the tower.
i know i can't control my teammates and i shouldn't get angry when they don't do what i want them to. at the same time, i don't understand how i'm supposed to focus on my own gameplay when the only thing i can focus on is how to break more boxes before the next wave shows up because anytime i go to a teamfight, no one else defends the lane. at the same time, any game where teammates actually understand to push walkers and i can go like 0-6-0 as pocket and win without contributing at all. it's so fucking frustrating.

One problem though is that if your retard teammates are too stupid to push objectives whenever you get kills and the game lasts long enough for most of the enemy team to buy spellbreaker because of it, then you start doing zero damage to the enemy gamers and you lose because of it.
>>
>>538152020
This but unironically, buy a Rescue Beam, a Greater Expansion and a Majestic Leap, leap into the enemy team, target an ally with the expanded range from GE and yank them into the enemy team and then bail out with a Warp Stone + Veil Walker or something while your retard teammate gets eaten alive.

I've had some games where I built gun mcginnis when my teammates were running around like chickens with their heads cut off and I was still able to carry the game because she just melts people and objectives so I could 1v11. I can't do the same on someone like GT.

>>538145903
Burst Fire, it gives more Fire Rate, gives Move Speed to run niggers down/kite them with using Fleetfoot and with Extra Duration + Transcendent Cooldown makes the duration basically the same length as the cooldown so you basically get 100% uptime on it when shooting enemies.

I think new player placement is just like a random rank in between initiate and archon maybe because Valve is just trying to test out where new players should go. Kinda stupid but it's how they're doing it.

The enemies clearly weren't actually fed then if you could actually 1v11. When the enemy team is actually fed they just don't ever fucking die unless they have ZERO people building any sort of shielding or healing.

Wtf do you people want? The dialogue in this blows every other hero shooter out of the water. You're not going to get some deep and philosophical conversation in a game like this but what little there is is pretty damn good.

over my decades of gaming Vyper is one of the funniest characters I have ever seen in a game.
this games writing and interactions are fucking great, you're probably some faggot too far up his own ass and calls everything that isn't aggressively edgy "cringe" or "embarrassing"

It is pretty impressive how well characterized most of the characters are in this game when it's treated like an afterthought for basically every other multiplayer game. The characters in this game are unironically better than the characters in a lot of story focused games.
>>
>>538133353
Wrong use of the image. This game is literally made by the creator of Dota 2 and many of the movesets in the game are just lifted off Dota 2 heroes, along with many of the items.
It's straight up the design philosophy behind Dota 2 just put into a third person shooter, with some exceptions made to try and keep the games shorter (most noticeably the lack of buyback).

what hero is truly braindead to play? like toss 2 abilites and wait for cooldown at the enemy braindead?

It really wouldn't be farfetched to say that Blazblue (as of it's inception at least) was basically just Guilty Gear. Over the years it distanced itself from Guilty Gear by adding more unique mechanics but at the start it existed to be a replacement for Guilty Gear.

the cheap early game sprint helps with more rotations and simply being where you need to be early game. also fire-rate is strong in general and a fire-rate boost that early is always great.

that being said, I usually end up running both swift and burst fire on the same guy
>>
>Haze if she had an actual good design
>>
>>538151926
Opposite experience for me. I regularly melt people on gunniggers but spiritsissies need 2 or 3 cooldowns of 10-30 seconds to deal the same damage that I can do in 5 seconds with a gun in which the only cooldown is the 2.5 second reload every 5-8 seconds.
>>
>>538154551
Swift Striker and Burst Fire in the same build sounds redundant but then again I just lack the slots for it, my aim is kinda ass so I have to use Split Shot to melt people as a gun character.

As a Vyper player I can see why they did it. It used to be absurdly powerful if you were good at the movement. This is the problem with designing characters where the balancer is just "its difficult to be good at it". People who are really good will just completely shit on everyone

that's not her problem, at all. because to do any damage on her you NEED to be sniffing people unlike Haze, Wraith or Infernus.
there are MULTIPLE ways to nullify her movement, people are just egotistical faggots and NEED their t4 damage item instead of just building Arctic blast or Knockdown.
Vyper straight up kills herself without vamp burst if you have return fire.

>the shills are still trying to force the "well designed characters" meme
there is not a single character in this game that could rival any Overwatch hero.

If you dont have to pick 3 older heroes there will be 5 or 6 new heroes every game

I'm the guy you've responded to, I've been playing since s3, was a Top main for a long time but branched out to play every role outside of jungle. The game has been getting shittier and shittier with every year and I've quit last year, making a switch to Dota.

League players are the epitome of dunning-kruger effect. There is no discussion to be had, they will just spam retarded shit that's not relevant to the topic, just like that retard I've been responding to. They are like that irl and in game, they will force a shit play and if it doesn't work out then it's your fault. Every player is tilted as fuck all the time. These "people" have no understanding of losing matchups, they see that you have a bad k/d or farm and will start flaming you and putting the blame on you if your team is losing the game, I was completely in shock how different the Dota playerbase is when I started playing (once I understood what's going on ofc, the game was really hard at first). League is unplayable without muting everyone at the start of the game and even then you are risking someone soft or hard trolling the game cuz you didn't follow his play/dont participate in a flame war. A lot of games end at the 15th minute mark because that's the point that you can surrender the game. It's obvious that the playerbase is exclusively normalfags/failed normalfags. The champion design is great but the gameplay loop is shit and the community is absolutely dogshit. I made some friends in League but it was a long time ago and honestly, I dont think it's possible anymore. Especially with the draconic chat restiction system, which I dont even want to bother explaining.

tl;dr League is a fucking NPC infested shithole
