>>538899452Eternus grindset. Thinking in terms of positive outcomes over instant voice comm gratification. I bet that took a lot of restraint.
>>538900653>Debuff Remover can remove any and all debuffsFair
>>538900768He's never getting out of Initiate if he is so mentally weak he lashes out against teammates and has racist thoughts.
>>538900653Its his worst ability though. Pain battery healing 20-24% of your missing health or Aura of suffering causing enemies to take 13% more damage from ALL sources sounds better to me. No point in removing debuffs if you don't do anything.
>>538900585Pocket AFK standing at base
>>538900991If you watch eternus games a lot of them are genuinely good players with horrible mental. They'll start bitching and moaning over anything. It's kinda wild but I guess it makes sense when they are invested enough to get to the rank they have to become turnt over bad teammates. Not that it makes saltiness right
>>538901379Imagine how much better they'd be if they weren't self-sabotaging like that.

>play Vindicta>lose every gameHohohohihihihi
Guys, this is super fucked up, but I stopped going 10 deaths on Drifter as soon as I stopped diving on skill hit.
>>538902187That ult is fucked, especially since they nerfed spirit damage on patrons for Seven and Bebop ults.
Mirage is so boring as he does is m1 people
>>538901964>tomboyon what grounds?
>>538902187>play Mina>hold dick
>>538902187Doorman was nerfed for this....
>>538901594its the voice
>>538902187>hold m1>no cooldownNice larp tho
I'm finally at the "0-11 teammates every game" phase of the game. I guess it's time to quit again until who knows when.
>>538900585drifter scanning the sidelanes from mid waiting for someone to hunt

>>538904307played my first ever deadlock match and picked her and I went 0/9 and did 7k total damage and uninstalledI'm not built for your game deadlock bros
>>538904907Why should I get mad at my teammates? Individual losses do not matter, only longterm results and how I improve both as an individual player and as a team communicator. Getting tilted does not serve me.
>>538904274Did you know Victor has almost same health at max level as Mina? ahahaha
>>538904274Use Rake for sustainBuy shielding items to deal with burst damageDon't play her if you're bad at positioning
>>538903045She's participating in a traditionally masculine activity (armed gang violence)
>>538905787Your first few weeks will be miserable no matter what. Play with bots first. Also don't pick Mina, that hero is dogshit.

>>538907589abrams shouldn't be able to "take on all of you", which right now he purportedly can. not really fair at all.

is this game fun yet? I stopped playing months ago because of the rampant hacking and smurfing
>>538908463>TankyI dunno mange, they might as well be burst characters with the absurd amount of damage they can lash out.
>>538908939yeah sure you did

>Custom map lets you make a custom doorman parkour tooI like where this is going
>>538900585>senile faggotChief Prepping Bull
How similar is the game to Dota? It seems fun but I'm awful at FPS-ish games.
I get really upset when I give an enemy a permanent stack of anything. I have to take a deep breath and remind myself it's not the end of the world.
>>538910528in my experience, haze players will do this too. >come out of lane 6/0 or some shit >gets dumpstered by a competent shiv that isn’t too far behind >feeds their ass off nonstop >ends game 10/15

Why is nearly everyone either evil or a goober
>>538911278Krill is an evil slavemaster that acts like a goober
if deadlock didn't leak do you think the only confirmation of its existance would have been valve name dropping it in the HL2 anniversary video?
>>538900297is the new york sewer jews going to be referenced at any point? It feels so prefect for a throwaway line
>>538911278it's the New York experience
I guess Dash Shiv is the way to go now damn
>>538911278Never played Dota or TF2? Or Portal for that matter? It's just the Valve way.
>>538911278What, you like Overwatch characters where even the "villains" are literally dindu tier sobshit?
>>538911241I have embraced my destined role as lane janitor. I do it in every assfaggot I play
>>538907410>Mo&KrillYeah, you forgot to divide by 2, you idiot.They only have 1.4k hp each.
>>538912390gib build, also what your goal? just max points on dash first and BR0000000L?
>>538911278mokrill and ivy are pretty nice without actually being goobers
>>538912735wow upvotedvery funnyI love reddit humor!

POV: the warden got fed and now has exclusive rights to everyone's jungle
fuck this game im going to bed
>>538907732If there's going to be a trailer it's gonna be right before the final game, two days from now. 9/14
>>538912852Pretty much, I basically just use 4 for gap close then use my 2 with cooldowns
>>538907410>>538907608I fucking hate this shit, stop begging for league of legends.>character can regenerate>therefore, his base regeneration is nerfed>he regenerates health %>therefore his health pool is smaller than average to be balanced :^)Stop with this deceitful league of legends shit of specifically neutering a character's strength.
i have never seen a billy not get parried and die multiple times in a match
>>538913651victor is not a great tank early game and his low health leaves him susceptible to burst unless he's rushing enchantress emblem + spirit shielding. and I assure you, that victor was not that smart.
>>538909309That's just Slacks. He's eccentric as fuck. He cosplayed Infernus last year.He played a shitload back in the earlier days of the alpha but just like in Dota he was a really shit teammate, would easily get mad and rage. Still love him as a Dota 2 talent though. Guy has passion and makes even autistic Dota players come out of their shell a bit.
>>538909309he's too bald to fully realize it but the fit is good
maybe i'm just bad but arctic blast and tankbuster seem like such bait items. tankbuster maybe not. wish this game had item damage numbers
We should nerf every character into becoming the same 3 characters.
>>538916662tankbuster is not a bait item, but it is not a left > right kind of autobuy item either. when you should buy it changes a decent amount
>>538916662that freeze is surprisingly valuable
Are you ready for deadlock to be as big as deadlock? Whether you believe it can be big or not it's a valve game and they are clearly putting a lot of money, time, and talent into this game and it WILL get a ton of advertisement and giant esports scene. Not to mention tons of money involving the lootboxes and items.
kind of lame that mina's ult is so good that she's basically an ult bot now but the rest of her kit is so underwhelming that if you nerf the ult she will quite literally do nothing. either they need to rework the 3 to make it have more uptime or they just keep her how she is with people malding about the ult + spirit burn
>>538917004i don't know if this is a hot take but the change to her 3's last upgrade that was supposed to be a buff is actually a nerfthe cooldown reduction on it actually made it deal far more damage over battles, if anything they should've leaned more into that then nerfed the ult if it got too bad
>>538916997big as dota*, obviously
>>538903037Scarabs need to be replaced with an ability that is not dogshit boring and the ult should just be wreckers deleted ult that lets him fly like a grey talon bird, except with aoe barrier for your team instead of damage
>>538916997You mean like artifact?These faggots will abandon the project immediately if the player numbers are low after release.They will not spend more time on it to "fix" it.
>>538915070TSMSTif a character has way too much health, nerf his gun instead of nerfing his unique property.
>>538914316at best a teaser, at worse another awkward clip like last year's
>>538913162Weirdly angry over nothingI assure you people have been making math jokes since before reddit existed
>>538917004>she's basically an ult bot now>nowI've been using her as an ult bot since her release.People was using her wrong and complaining about how "useless" she is, while I'm getting great success with her ult all the time.And I didn't even use her ult mainly for objective only back then either.I've been helping my team to secure free kills by raining bats on the enemy my teammate is fighting.
>>538911054You can just play a character like mo n krill if you suck at aiming. Movement and decision making are about as important as aim.
>>538917304His ult should be him opening his coat to reveal a bomb vest
>>538917809before they changed the max upgrade on 3 you COULD imbue her 3 with cooldown and have it up fairly often. it'd do good damage. you could play her much more like an outskirts marksman
>>538911278There's abrams but he's gay
they gave McGinnis, 7 and bebop less objective damage on their ults, just do the same for Mina, problem fucking solved
>you're in the middle of holding and running the urn yet you're still somehow the first person on the team to notice two lanes being actively shoved into walker
>>538917004i hope they nerf the ult objective damage, it's bs and holds her back from being fun
>>538917927Delete this. Mirage would never endanger Nashala like that.
>>538917597artifact wasn't entirely designed by valve, it's based on the dota IP, and obviously it flopped most importantly because of how retarded they were to try and have real world card economy for a digital only game. Deadlock is an entirely different beast and they're obviously putting way more effort into it. Are you dumb?
>>538918816he said more interesting, not lore accurate.
>>538917004>the rest of her kit is so underwhelmingnigga you can do 300 damage for free with love bites in the early game, your rake can get you to full HP in seconds by hitting a wave and your 2 can dodge every ability in the game not once, but twice
>>538919114ok now think about post 10 minutes when her lovebites are doing 300 damage every 8 seconds
>>538918961>N-no, it's different this time.Just stop huffing that copium and pray hard that the release doesn't flop.I promise you that they will abandon the project if the game doesn't do well.
>>538918092or just cap the infinite scaling on her bats, or maybe reduce the 1% health damage because that's fucking stupid.
>>538919510zzz
>>538918092>they gave McGinnis... ...less objective damage on their ultsOk when are you supposed to use the McGinnis ult? Because it blows chunks and is easily dodgable and slows you down. Reasonably I assumed it was then supposed to be used for pushing objectives, but apparently not. What a dogshit ultimate
>>538918092>literal lowest HP character in the game slowly hovers in place shooting your tower>you dont just use one of a bilion actives or shoot them down
>>538919480I do not think, I see the vampire lady then coom.
>>538919761you're supposed to use it to farm tier 3 camps, outside of that it's useless
>>538919794you can dodge actives like knockdown with her 2
The black woman of Valve unoriginality.These are TWO different characters.
>>538919889Mr. Yoshi, I am holding you personally responsible for this situation.
>>538920029which ends her ultimate making her useless because the rest of her kit is garbage if she's not 10k ahead. did you think before typing or are you really gonna try and claim mina is op
>>538920142you’re late brother
>>538920256A wizard is never late.
>>538920169it doesn't end her ultimate, that's the whole point. you can use the 2 to reposition it, it pauses the duration too
How do you hit Patron in pit with Mina ult again? I searched on YouTube but nothing came up. I know there's a trick to it
>>538920965jump and then airdash causes you to glide forward with the momentum of her ult instead of upwards
>>538920965jump+dash+ult instantly
>should i go tankbuster guys?*pops addy*>never buy trophy collector*sniffs loudly*>watch my movement video on youtube*rocks back and forth in chair*>alright that's GG. yeah it's over.
mirage should get a free magic carpet after 20 minutes
>>538921167nashala already ubers him wherever he wants to go
>>538920576>use knockdown>mina uses 2 to dodge>she has no more escape>shoot her stupid ass while she's hovering at 0.1 m/s
>>538921432>our blue walker has been defeated
>>538921167I do wish he could tele anywhere on the map with his ultimate desu
>>538921658Where's he going bros?
how am I supposed to play any other hero after learning calicoher cat form lets me do fucking everything
>>538921705Wyoming, USA
>>538919761>>538919889I've been able to use it pretty effectively to be honest. But only when I have a specific ult focused build. Upgrade it early, get mystic slow and extra range, that in and of itself ruins their ability to dodge it. Plus, all you really gotta do is lead your shots.In fact, just add 1 point into it no matter the build and give it the 30% slow on hit, that helps more than you think.
>Lane against sinclair>Dude just nuke me with his fucking 1 constantlyThere's no winning against that, is there?Even hiding behind guardian or wall doesn't help at all
>>538921097i fucking despise this faggot
>>538916037>slacks went blackface at tiWHAT THE FUCK HOW DID I MISS THIS
>>538922103it's more than mild hatewatching at this point but i'd be lying if i said he didn't make me a much better player by watching
>>538921770if you learn movement, everyone is just as fast.or buy movespeed items.
This is a very dumb question I see people playing in ranked games like in >>538901147 I can see the rank but I don't think I get that at the end of my games, is there a play mode I'm missing or am I wood tier or what
>>538922419not even close
>>538922558options/settings
>>538922558No separate ranked mode, there's an option in the settings to show ranks.
>>538922595you're just bad.
>>538922651>>538922716Yep just dumb, thanks
>>538922419>if you learn movement, Dynamo is just as fast as Calico, trust!shut up nigga
>>538922770higher rank than you anyway
>you get a kelvin>nice we already w->it's a support kelvin who ice beams once the entire lane>instant loss>goes green and does nothingcan we opt out of getting people who just installed in our teams?
>>538924105stop being so toxic to new players!
>>538900297Will they change the name of baxter society? It sounds really weird and foreign. What does "baker group" even mean?
>>538923038>>538923203dash jumping and preserving your momentum off things puts you at like 14-15m/s.that's on par with than the cat's base movespeed at 14 (17 if you spend AP on upgrading it instead of upgrading your damage abilities).
>took a break for a couple weeks because I started getting my never played white queue characters over new heroes>had never played any games on Haze, Infernus, or Ivy before, caught all of them>first game today>now I've played McGinnis tooAnd all of them were basically as braindead as I expected. Well, not Ivy. She was the only one I couldn't do as well just by Monkey Seeing Monkey Doing what I remember seeing other Ivy players do.
>>538924784you have never played a minute of calico huh
I will build focus lens on every hero and you cant stop me
>>538924921yeah i get it, you refuse to engage with the game's mechanics and just like holding W.i'm not denying it's fast i'm just saying most characters can be nearly as quick if you aren't shit.

Even on my shitlow alt bebomb sucks. It doesn't matter if I get a bunch of stacks and do a ton of damage if it's not enough to nuke them and I just die.If you get too big, they buy debuff remover or counterspell. So then you have to suicide bomb and hope they don't Counterspell it. It's all just a bit shit.

>>538925927yeah there are just too many counters to be bop. I think his bomb should be his ult so it cant be dispelled. I dont know how to fix the counterspell problem though

parry itself doesnt go on cooldown when you parry. i am waiting for the melee multihit move that allows me to parry it. obviously the idiot hero has some passive that doesnt make them stunned during parry but.. yeah i want evo moment
>>538928467Deathy Not the most entertaining or amazing player, as far as streamers go, but strikes a decent balance of both if you want to learn a bit more of the game

Witchmail just never seems worth it on fucking anyone, I love it conceptually too.
>>538929720spirit res is too low, I opt for spellbreaker 99% of the time.
>>538929720Which mail?
>>538929720it doesn't provide enough spirit resistance so you can only really justify it as a second spirit resist item, but then you've wasted two item slots on spirit resist and have no damage
Can my spirit go higher than +81, or is that a hard cap?
Tesla Bullets on Paradox
It's time, /dlg/Post something you're ashamed of
>>538929720It being super fucking unreliable and unpredictable means you can never count on what ability it will actually reduce the cooldown of. If it were an imbue, but only reduced 2 or 3 seconds, it would be genuinely great.
>>538929926Thats just for investment into purple items, individual items can have their own spirit boost that can bring you over. The golden statue buffs can also bring you over.
>>538929983Never again
Question then, who are YOU watching play Deadlock, /dlg/?? Vegas? Surefour? Eskay? Zerggy? I wish Mast did more.
>>538930039you're trading off the ability to shrug off a lash stomp/talon arrow for, even then I think i'd go for spellbreaker
>>538930126N/A I don't know who's good
>>538929720Normally id agree, but I love this damn item on victor. would get infuser or something first, but this item is fucking crazy on him. The ONLY abilities it works on are his 2 and his ult, which means you're either taking a minute off its cooldown in a fight and/or you're getting infinite 2 uses.
>>538930126I like variety streamers more
>>538930126Ster because I'm not a redditor
>>538930126I don't watch streamers
>>538929667the passive and the instakill from 30m away resetalthough the instakill wasnt that OP I think people just cried about seeing someone with 30 kills every game. I guess it also helped him snowball by stealing every frag
>>538930126Sometimes I fall asleep listening to this random channel that records high rank lobbies."Deadlock Pro Gameplay [Watch & Learn]"A bit pretentious for recording spectator matches but ok it is what's on the tin
>>538929720It's decent on Victor since, he really only has two abilities, and if his Ult is ready, then Witch mail defaults to Jump Start.>>538930039Now that might be a bit too broken on some heroes specifically who can spam a single powerful ability for free. There are some people who already try it on Bebop in order to spam bombs.
>>538930148Idk. If I could witchmail 2 on Shiv I think some people might genuinely quit the game.
speaking of content shillers, what happened to slacks? ran into him all the time before rank was introduced. is he playing under a smurf account?
>>538929983I healslutted on ivy all the way up to oracle, i have not bought a single gun item in weeks
>>538930126i just play the game and do horribly
>laning against Victor as seven>rush spirit shredder and mystic vulnerability and he is never ever able to contribute to fightslol lmao
>>538930503Not even Monster Rounds? Your Guardian is crying, bro.
>>538930531legit not a single soul cares what a seven player does or says
>>538930485no he's said he's waiting for 1.0 to jump back on full timeintolerable shitter from the games I played with him
>>538930640Your mom did last night
>>538930604Kudzu spam all the way baby, slap all the buffs on it and watch the outplays make themselfes, helps when i have a teammate or two than knows how well her ult can work., also Ivy's gun is perfect for securing and denying souls, more than makes up for my fully investing into spirit and health
>>538928669>>538921097My major problem with this guy is that he clearly wants to make a career out of his stream but he just refuses to not look like a fucking pedophile. If you really want to be a big streamer then shave the mustache, style your hair, and get a decent camera and angle. Like actually try. The way he is now he looks like he's about to appear on the next episode of To Catch a Predator.
>>538931432Have you heard him talk? He doesn't have that potential.
what do i do when i'm so bad at finding farm on the map? i played a game as infernus and was last in souls on my team and the enemy carry was over 2x my souls. i try to hit lanes and hit camps when moving across the map. i might be retarded
>>538931647I'd need to get the match ID of an example game to see how you're playing in spectator mode to say anything concrete but I'm guessing it's not enough (or any, if you don't know the jackpot mechanic) sinfuls not fast enough jungle clearing, probably taking tier 3 camps way too early, probably waiting inbetween waves when safe farming, those kinds of inefficiencies that stack up
>>538931647how's your deny rate? are you hitting up the slots? sliding into boxes?
>>538931647die and come here to refresh the thread
>>538930126>watching i go in game and watch the first clown room available.
>>538927743Ebony Queen
>>538930126I like zerggy because he actually seems like he has fun playing
>Lightning Scroll>Spirit Burn>Mystic Reverb>Focus LensThese all basically do the same thing. I would include >Tankbuster but it's not a 6400 so it gets a pass.
>Hitting the jackpot with a light melee gives the player 1 Golden Statue buff, and hitting with a heavy melee gives 4 buffs.God damn it. Well now I know
>>538927008>>538927302It's really hard to apply macro to these low lobbies. There's always a shit ton of farm, bridge buffs untouched. Friendly objectives constantly dying to minions. You're not free to play 'properly', picking up the odd available farm on your way to defend the adjacent walker, pushing lane and dipping back out to farm. You have to brute force shit at that rank.
>>538932387>Stun>Anti-Heal and demolition>Low cd AOE and slow>Silence and damage ampIn the sense that they are items that deal damage they are the same, yes.
Sure is nice chasing someone down with burrow only for the enemy hero to escape since I can't combo them because Mo won't fucking stop spinning
>>538932568>You have to brute force shit at that rankI tardwrangled my way to Emissary from Initiate by shotcallingAll you have to do is make good calls the first one or two times and more often than not your team will obey
Do we have a Deadlock version of the I have finished farming image of Magina?
>>538932748If somebody makes calls that don't get us fucked I tend to listen since it gives me more room to focus on execution instead.
>Fuck the enemy gun carry with actives every fight>40 minutes they still don't have debuff removerSurely it's at least in the optional part of their build?
>>538931794didn't know about the jackpot mechanic. i haven't hit close side camps consistently and I'm not sure about movement into jungle to get other camps yet.
>>538933048If you heavy melee the sinner machines right as the lights fill up (start when there's 2 lights left), you get 4 golden jar buffs. If you take these all game and the enemies don't, you're just massively stronger.
>Mo gets hit with sleep dagger>krill falls asleep huh?
I wish my teammates would shittalk the enemies instead of eachother
I tried gun bebop and hated it
>>538933535Well they nerfed everything else so that's the only viable build, I hate it too

>>538933704I only do it when they shit talk first or t-bag out of frustration It's usually Infernus players
>>538934139What I meant to say is that I, as a bystander, want to see the butthurt back and forth for my amusement throughout the game.

Geist feels like one of the most useless solo queue characters
>>538935439Good
Was Dota 2's invite-only period like Deadlock where there's unfinished assets everywhere? I don't really get this marketing strategy, though I am grateful to be able to play it (especially before it is made unpure by cosmetics, lootboxes, etc).
>>538933302I just want my laners to use their abilities and stop diving the enemy. Just fucking farm and poke, for fucks sake.
>>538935439Just do cool ass Reverb ults
>>538935617No not really, but I joined in July 2012(or 13, right when Abaddon was added) so maybe I joined late.
How much of Abrams physique is hard work compared to genetics. Could infernus get that jacked from exercise?
Sinclair can get 3 guaranteed heavy melees off with hex, queue up heavy, hex , heavy heavy
>>538935912It's like 90% demon drugs. The other 10% is frame and a strong enough vessel to not fucking perish the moment the drugs got into his bloodstream.
>Best gun>2nd best ult>has catch>amazing lane poke>doesnt build green items at all yet still tanky as fuck>beloved by sweatsWHAT WERE THEY THINKING????!!
>4 game lose streakAlright time to play mcginnis
Imagine a point and click adventure game where you're Abrams solving some murders. You walk into a crime scene and there's green goo everywhere.
>>538936136it's a boring character for boring people. yeah i'll win but what's the point if i'm not having fun? any moment i'm using the "get a buff" ability or "boring ass flask" ability i remember i could be teleporting as doorman, flying around as lash, brapping people to death as ivy, anything but this shit.worst of all he's way too dependent on his ult but i digress.
>>538928325Drain a lot of young white menBut not of their blood :^)
>>538936395>worst of all he's way too dependent on his ult but i digress.It's not really a bad thing though because his ult basically auto wins every team fight.
Man, I lost every game and just had no impact on the game at all. Couldn't even get carried to a win. I just queued over and over and don't know if I learned anything but it sucks. I'm at a loss.
>>538936898The game started to click when I reached the 30-40 hour mark, which coincidentally was the amount it took for me to absolutely tank my MMR to pisslow.
>>538936324You should play Discworld Noir
>>538936994I think just from previous performace before the shop update I was doing really well, and it elevated my MMR artificially and now I';m just getting matches I'm probably in that are way higher than I should actually be in. Even then the average rank isn;t that high at average Ritualist 3-5 but man. I don't get kills, I don't feed, farm okay, but if I go to help my team it goes awful and if I try to take objectives away from them it goes awful.
>you can parry puddle punch because it does melee damagewhat the fuck, does this work on stuff like billy wombo combo or drifter slash too or did they just decide this specific ability is way too annoying to have no counterplay
>>538937238It only works on puddle punch.
>Enemy Mina is 43k while our M&K is 21K>Check again ten minutes later>Mina is 46k while M&K are 36k>There wasn't a single significant fight this entire time and neither of them participated????????????
>>538937410M&K were either farming playing lane janny while mina was wandering around doing nothing/blinking away at the first sign of trouble for ten minutes
>>538937410i mean when you're at 43k there's practically 0 incentive to farm anymore. if the enemy team is that ahead and didn't end then you must be in absolute shitter elo
>>53893741010 minutes without a big teamfight? How horrifying
>>538937238the latter
>>538933618how do I achieve this?

>>538939546Yeah and he's hard countered by antiheal and can't do shit about it
>>538939546>he doesn't have tank health because in 20 seconds from now he will heal 20% of the damage he took that killed him 19 seconds ago
>>538940090are you being retarded on purpose
>>538940143i'm simply describing how his passive works and how it doesn't matter in a burst damage meta
for all my shitlow brothers that are wondering if the matchmaking ever gets better when you escape the gulagit doesn't
>>538940304ok so not on purpose
>>538937556I'm just in awe at the Mina's ability to do fucking nothing while up 20k souls.>>538937646It was ONLY Mina. The entire rest of her team was at like 27k or something.>>538937715Genuine cock and ball torture.
Blood tribute Geist. Think about it lock tards.
Rejuvenator is too strong at the momentWhichever team gets it first in a match is almost guaranteed to win
>>538941394if blood tribute gave you instant 500hp on activation it would be good
>>538928325Drain the latest uber white aryan vampire hunter (me) that she mindbroken into becoming her latest thrall slave (also me)
>>538941734in my shitlow getting rejuv causes the team to instantly run it down and get wiped somehow
>>538929720It should unironically become a tier 3 with zero changes.
If you're way ahead in souls early on, turn off your brain and buy spirit burn. you'll thank me
>>538929983I have over 50 games of drifter already and a negative winrate. He's kind of shit
>try gun holiday>do horribly in lane>behind the whole game, give up farm to teammates who are carrying>eventually get 4 tier 4 items>walk into a single fight and M1 down 4 people>wini have yee-hawtism
>>538941971Why would you buy spirit burn if you're ahead? Anti lifesteal is for the losing team not winners.
>>538929983I am a warden onetrick
This is what Yamato will look like in 2028.
>>538940349The gulag is my home. I sometimes get let out and get to interact with people on the other side, but I always have to return.
>Victor is useless for the first 30 minutes of a match>the only thing he can hope to contribute is to not feed 10+ kills to the enemy team>at the 30 minute mark someone throws a switch>Victor instantly becomes an unkillable god who just holds W directly into the enemy base and wipes it and likely the entire team tooGreat hero design, IceFraud...
How come sometimes I see people get 4 buffs from jackpots and sometimes its 2, anyone know?
>lane partner fucks off to go hit the t2 camps as soon as they spawn, taking forever and nearly killing himself for 150 souls>lose full health guardian>post lane will farm during teamfights or walker defense>whines when we losehow do these people get it into their heads that this is a good idea? also guess the hero
i hate playing this game with friends, just like dota...
>>538943329>Why is gambling random?
>>538943329>>538933178
>>538943329light melee vs heavy melee but sometimes I've gotten zero buffs from it despite hitting the jackpot
>>538941774you hunt white aryan vampires? pretty niche specialization
>40 minute game>sub 10k damage doorman when he has spirit burn, boundless and vortex webi wish half of my losses didnt feel like they were purely because the game handed me uncarriable deadweight every single time
thoughts on this item
>>538945007*holds 0*
>>538945007Looks good for Yamato, Pocket, and other ability spam heroes.
>>538945007Anyone that wants to spam abilities likes this item, but they have to be tanky enough to justify the regen too.
>>538945007dogshit bait item on 99% of the cast, one of the most demoralizing purchases when you see it on a team mate.
>>538945007rush this on lady geist first or second item and become a total power spike regen junkie.
>>538945743Could you elaborate?
Ever get a match that went so dogshit, it kills your motivation to play another?
>>538946294Yesterday. Shit went so bad that it got me to stop procrastinating.
I love getting carried by my vampire girlfriend.
The trannies and coomers actually got this vampire nigga overbuffed to oblivionOnce again appealing to the most retarded and degenerate
>>538946828she has 45% wr in good ranks and will be buffed again
>wraith gets her teleport back immediately if you interrupt itfaggot nigger
>>538946887he must mean Drifter
>be bebop>buy metal skinwhat was it made of before?
>>538947128slow hex, phantom strike, silence wave..comon now..
>>538947313Pretty much everyone else has their shit go on cooldown is my point, tard for brains.
>>538947371Then say that next time you fucking retard. No one can fucking read your mind through the ethernet cable.
>>538947371Nope! Only channeled skills go on cooldown when interrupted.
>>538947557That's wrong althoughbeit perchance
>>538947557except for sinclair stealing a channeled ult for some reasonit just gives him a full refund
>>538947472Not my fault you're stupid, lil bro.
the crosshairs in this game are so fucking bad let me use a dot PLEASE
>>538947887try this retard bro
>>538947174No I mean MinaThey be trying to make it babymode for coomers
>>538947980No you are gay
They really slowed down with the fucking balance patches, can we do something about spirit burn obliterating objectives
For me, it's George&Floyd
>>538948187>Gun is for killing heroes>Spirit is for killing objectiveshere to stay ; )
>>538948326you mean Hawk & Tuah?
>>538947931Well aren't I just the big fat retard that missed this somehow
When are they adding a wheelchair hero?

>>538947887you VILL use hero crosshairs and you VILL get fully immersed into ze character
razor/trundle drain carrythoughts?
Only streamers / youtubers worth watching are >Dimov (extremely good at the game at a variety of heroes) >Parzelion (good at the game while not being obnoxious) >Zerggy (if you like M1 heroes and can tolerate zoomerisms) >Deathy and Poshypop (both are kind of faggy but pump out good educational videos from time to time)Everyone else is either some retarded ape or just way too obnoxious like Lefaa or Vegas
>play my first game of deadlock ever>game takes 2 hours to completewhat the hell
>>538950303Of course she's fragile, she's made of bats.>>538951195Bro downloaded the Extended Edition
>>538950992need aoe drain because this game has 4~5 carries per game
Charge based spirit heroes do no damage in the late game, was this intentional? Feels like they should be able to scale more beyond boundless spirit.
>>538951435When I play against talon he does 900 per arrow
>>538951435gay talon will deal like 2500 damage from two arrows due to spirit burn/reverb/spirit
>>538949583happens to us all, friend
>>538951435>hits you with 5 1k damage barrels in a row while tapping your head for 200 damage constantlyheh, nothing personnel kid
If I were Valve I would try and peddle this piece of shit to Riot, maybe they could fix it.
>>538951978thanks for your input chinko
>>538917795anything I don't like is reddit
>>538951978Deadlock is literally gaining player in closed Beta with zero progression systems to grind for, no skins, and no competitive ladder.Cope.
Personally, I think Boundless spirit needs a buff of 5 additional spirit power.
>>538951978RIOT??? ARE YOU SERIOUS??
>>538952349But riot will add kpop skins, forced elo, gacha and controlled esports, which will make the game 2 times funner.
>>538951978June 2026 : Abrams is a gay man and has a black boyfriendJune 2027 : Actually, Holiday, McGinnis, and Paige are a throupleJune 2028 : Mina identifies as non-binary demisexual she/they
>>538952349momo and kareem is a joke I make every game
>abilities are slow to activate >stack ability range so they're easier to land/harder to dodge>winit's that shrimple
>>538952817Yeah ability range on Paige is underrated
>>538952349>no skinsWrong.I tried deadlock when the invite started, and then stopped playing after a days.Then I come back because of Mina.I didn't even care how she was played, I only care about how she look.
>>538952727I thought all of this is canon at this point
>>538952727>Mina identifies as non-binary demisexual she/they
>>538951124parzelion is my favorite, he's just a normal dude that's good at the game

Is Sinclair a good rat character? Assuming I get Magic Carpet.
>>538953713they hated him because he spoke the truth
>Scooby Doo ahhh, dress up villain, scaring the living shit out of fishermen for fun in the world where real monsters exist so people believe in it. But now there is a real monster haunting the waters, pissing on his little parade. Is so much bettter than Slork being a monster himself.
did the world wars happen in deadlock universe
>>538954154No
>>538954154No. The Maelstrom that occurred in 1899 sent everything off course. Hitler is probably alive right now doing something totally ordinary. Or out searching for ancient Germanic magic artifacts or some shit like that.
>>538954047the devs have an elitism fetish and you will be forced to take part in it, please understand.I mean jesus christ, even Ivy of all characters shares the same family as a mayor
>>538954047The voicelines people have found where heroes just completely sincerely say 'Keep slorkin' it!' to congratulate him leave me in fucking stitches on concept alone. Everyone seems to humor this poor corny guy.
>>538928325me (i hope)
>>538954279As a guy who is RUNNING for mayor. What the fuck is an elitism fetish??? There are plenty of heroes who are underdogs/funny guys, like Mo & Krill, Infernus who is literally just an ex-criminal, Shiv is just a member of the Baxter Society, Holliday is just a cop with some cool shit, I don't understand where this is coming from LOL
>>538954154the government has psychics and oracles who predict the future, same as other countries, so the wars are prevented and they instead try to manipulate the future in their favor in a game of 8D chess
nah babei'm laaaaaaaaaaash
>>538928325Honestly probably become absolutely loopy and have constant murder orgies, organize spectacular/shocking murders for fun because she wants New York to 'be her playground'. She's a fun character but she absolutely should not get her wish. Imagine an entire city under the thumb of a bloodthirsty, vain, and solipsistic young woman. (Is she even young? She comes off like a chick just entering her 20s, but she IS a vampire)That would be a living hell.
>>538954279Ah yes, the greatest of elites - eldritch undersea monsters
>>538954047I'm slorkin it
>bringing back dead spirits such as Vindictaadd more ghosts
>queued for Ivy priority>get shiv>upset>ivy is my lane partner>he disconnects at like minute 4 and eventually abandons the game >fucking bitch>I'm left alone>still manage to deny the retarded Victor and Billy that I'm laning against a good amount of times>ivy comes back like ten minutes later>I somehow snowball out of control and go 21-4-5 and win, totally shat on themfeels good man
>>538907410>victor and mina images are left to right>MK and abrams kmages are top to bottomgo fuck yourself
>>538954421every character in the game is associated with some type of leader, crime boss or millionaire, or has reached the top 0.000001% of their own given field. And even when they seem to be normal people, you can be sure as hell the devs will shoehorn some way for them to not be. I predicted as much with Ivy and the Arroyos, now watch as they reveal that Paige was born as a chosen one and had top grades in school, and that Victor was created by the most smartest genius in the universe.
>>538954886To be fair that's the entire shtick with Icefrog's DOTA "heroes" and it will be the same in Deadlock. The patrons wouldn't choose average joes to defend themselves.
>>538954547>(Is she even young? She comes off like a chick just entering her 20s, but she IS a vampire)she only became a vampire recently as a consolation prize after her arranged marriage got interrupted, so she's a rich girl thrown back at the bottom of the (vampire) social ladder
>>538955009She was born human and got turned because she failed to get hitched??? Damn her life fucking sucks, add vengeful to the reasons she shouldn't get her wish granted
>>538954886Wow you just ignored all examples of regular people in anon's post
>>538954421Shiv is in line to take over the Baxter society, he's definitely not a nobody.
How does Shiv turn into a monster?I'm messing around with his kit and it doesn't feel that crazy
>>538954886So... what do you want exactly? A newspaper reporter who just has a snubnose in his pocket and gay little news themed abilities? A fucking investment banker that brought a sawn-off and has money powers? Oh wait that means he's LOADED and ELITE we can't add him to the game he's NOT NORMAL ENOUGH. How about a suburban dad that wants the Patrons to give him the best grill of all time so he's the envy of the cul-de-sac? Better yet, add the fucking caveman from Scooby-Doo into the game, purely so Kelvin can ult him and people can stand outside and talk about how glad they are he's in there, and they're out here. The best idea I have for a 'normal guy' is the veteran of a war fighting so the Patron can resurrect his fallen brothers so they can live the lives stolen by them from war in Ixia. But God forbid if he had some magic on him to help him in battle during the ritual, of course. You are retarded.
>>538955006that's boring as hell, overdone and/or lame. Things are not interesting when it's easy for someone to do them. And it's strange that these impossibly powerful beings, who are literal gods, are backed by only six (6) people each. They would realistically probably try to contact anyone in the world who would fight for them. And that would lead the game to have a bunch of unexpected interesting characters, but no, It's more interesting to have rich millionaire genius #65148941321 or 46 le heccin' epic crime bosses
>>538955095>and got turned because she failed to get hitched???idk if i'd say "she failed" so much as "her suitor was assassinated" though it's basically all but stated that said suitor was pocket so for her 18th birthday instead of arranged marriage into a position of power with an incredibly powerful corporation she was given immortality as a gifti wanna say the character bios are in the bottom right of the select screen but the button is fairly small so it's easy to miss
>>538930126i used to watch mikaels but kid decided to go to college
>>538955339My build last game >>538954815I get mystic regeneration and extra charge, rapid recharge and radiant regeneration after, maybe enchanters barrier early if I'm eating shit. I go 2-0-0-2 on my abilities. Then max out whatever feels right, get arcane surge, spirit lifesteal, cold front, and imbue your dash with reach and cooldown. First tier 4 I get is usually Arctic blast.
>>538955339The idea I get from playing him is that you are supposed to wait until your ult is fully upgraded to really get your ball rolling and take over teamfights by being so tanky you can't die while you wittle them down with ramping bleeds/assassinate a squishy with close range burst in the form of your 2 and gun damage. You are basically a sword hanging over their heads that will come down if they don't run away from you, and you're a bitch to kill thanks to your 3.

>>538956306Because the dota faggot is also being disingenous with half the heroes he's cherry picking
>>538955452>And it's strange that these impossibly powerful beings, who are literal gods, are backed by only six (6) people eachAlso the patrons are not at their full power. That's why they can only give boons (sharing their power) with 6 heroes. They need to be summoned into this world to unleash their full power...Pretty sure if you were a patron you wouldn't choose Jack the local gangster to defend you. Given your limited power, you would choose war veterans, genius scientists, and literal crime lords to fight.
>>538956306jesus christ, dude. I really hit a chord, huh?just go back to licking some korean pro-player's toes or defending your favorite politicians for free. I can't take that away from you
>>538956306Oof. You got dumpstered.
>>538956382>cherry pickingneed more examples?>alsoSo you know you are disingenuous about "elitism".
>>538956467>no argument>projection
>>538956426you say that as if rumors wouldn't spread around about two literal gods trying to be summoned into the world and offering wishes during a very important eclipse. If some people were desperate enough, they would probably fight each other or do anything to get their wish, and eventually get the patron's attention. From this you would get all sorts of different people who prove to be capable instead of just 47 different le heccin' epic crime bosses

Doorman is really fun, but he might be a too high skill for me. I use doors like a retard and I can't push attacker into walkers.
>>538956860nothing about Mo and Krill's kit is that magical or special, though. Mo throws sand and burrows underground like the mole he is while Krill shoots a shotgun and uses some typo of device to stun people, even that healing skill they have could be a different device, a magic scroll they bought at the store or a basic spell they learned. The flatcap is also just a cap. So why exactly do you need them to be le heccin' epic crime bosses #15688799871379834 on top of that for no reason besides keeping up with your compulsory elite worshiping sesh quota?
>>538956709Rumors are just rumors; you need people who are paranoid/desperate/crazy enough to chase the rumors against members of high society who would try to gatekeep the information for themselves. >From this you would get all sorts of different people who prove to be capable instead of just 47 different le heccin' epic crime bossesThe roster is dominated by crime bosses because the setting is a city that is ruled by crime bosses. They are exactly what the patrons are looking for : powerful, influential, greedy for riches, willing to kill other people. But despite that, we do have all sorts of different people from Abrams, McGinnis, Kelvin, Paige, etc who are not part of the syndicate. Survival is the number one priority for the patrons. They don't care about morality, they just want to be summoned into the world.

Hmm, it seems that the game thought I was having too much fun. It's not everyday your team mates lose their base guardians at 10 minutes.
>>538960184>their base guardians
>>538960210Their lane's, yes. Specifically yellow, I was in a stalemate on green.
>>538959969Doesn't slowing hex work on her too?
Today i learned that Mina can use her ult after being chained by Billy and the chains won't pull her.
>>538960210>>538960264This is what I meant.
>>538958068t. nigger getting assblasted by lash for trying to proc resto
>>538957932>you guys don't buy the item that's effectively 400 souls and helps you farm camps and do boxes faster while healing, right?
>>538960978yes my point was that you should probably do something about it by the time you're getting your walker threatened
>>538961181Like what? If I left to help, my lane's guardian would have been lost.
>>538961363>If I left to help, my lane's guardian would have been lostmost likely yes. but that's one of the things you need to learn about this game at some point
Does anybody else really like the Spirit Urn dialogue? Really funny when you run by and have no interest in picking it up at that moment.

what do I do/build as Billy when the enemy team has a Mina+Vindicta+Lash all doing well. Phantom Rush feels like it comes in too late after building core items and knockdown is ok but doesn't feel like a good item to build when you need survivability+damage so desperately on him.Mina especially it feels like billy can't engage with at all.
>>538962910LMAO what an asshole
fucking STICK TOGETHER YOU RETARDS
>>538962204its warden
>>538962204my ancestor :)
>>538941394Blood tribute + siphon health is unironically good combo, problem is that it's very akward to first buy a t3 item that kills you on its own, so you are forced to rush a t4 which is also akward. Then again if you had a really good lane, it might be doable.
>>538962910>>538962814source now
>>538945007Very akward to use on most of the heroes. I've seen it build mostly on Shiv and Geist. Shiv sadly has been in the dumpster for half a year now, so I can't really say if it's good on him. Its definitely a better purchase on lady Geist since she has both an easy to hit Aoe and spammable spells.
>>538965206Yamato Baroness voiceline
>>538930126>watching people play games
>>538955339If are arcanist or higher, you don't. You basically wait for your temmates to do any real damage and then you start executing people. If you play knives, everyone gets cleanse and if you play slice and dice, people just run away from you, so might as well max out your ult, stick to a healer who will manage to keep you alive due to the delayed damage and hopefully you will be able to whittle somebody down to low enough health that you can press 4 on them. Or if you feel like a gigachad, ignore spirit, go full melee tank and hope you don't get parried. If you are tanky enough you afford to bait parries, which is very likely to net you a kill if they don't have escape.
Imagine dying and getting used as a currency, fuel and ammunition.
>>538945007I remember when this was on every top Victor build when he released but even back then I thought it was a bad buy on him
>>538946208Bullet and spirit lifesteal are not only much more effective items for healing, they also build into much stronger items. Radiant regen only helps Geist keep her health up when using spells to clear waves and clear jungle on any other hero there's much more effective items to buy
>>538965993dinobros...
>>538965242>Shiv sadly has been in the dumpster for half a year nowthe recent buffs have made him feel competitive again. 90% of my matches are on shiv and the past half a year was miserable but now it almost feels too good again>>538945007first t3 i buy on shiv and im usually at least top 3 healing because of it
>>538965242I think it's good on knive shiv since you spam them so much and he's naturally so slow that the movement speed helps you out a lot.Plus in lane, mystic regen is absolutely broken with the dot on his knives so it's natural to upgrade it.
>>538966215KEK, but its objectively worse because its not your dead body but the conscious life energy
>>538966270If I get a game on Shiv where the enemy team has only 2-3 hard CC characters he feels great to play right now but the game just loves matching me against Lash, MnK, Holliday etc with him and I just suffer for 30+ minutes.
>>538965993i would die happy knowing i was used to buy mystic shot
Seriously, how do I play Abrams? Every game feels like I do bad in lane and I'm behind souls despite trying my best to farm.
>>538967437Extra Regen (or restorative shot) + close combat + sprint boots to grab boxes/gank another lane/more regen and that's really all he needs to get through laning.get spirit shielding if you're fighting a cancer lane like gay talon+doorman
>>538967437You just have to play to survive. Abrams isn't good into most lane matchups so he needs to be cautious. Post lane you engage fights for your team and don't really kill people solo unless you got super fed somehow.
>get put in some sweat lobby>doorman pulling off urn robberies I've never seen before>bebop landing every hook imaginable>somehow still winI feel like I glimpsed into the void.
>vyper's weapon range means you do zero damage unless you are breathing down their neck>slide gives absolutely zero protection except a bit of resist once you max it out>you just slide into people and get CC'd into wombo comboso is this character just bad
>>538968921No, gun is just bad on her. Build spirit.
>>538965993Souls in deadlock feel like mana instead of souls in real life. Our candlemen are bots.
>>538969037WHY THE FUCK ARE ALL HER TOP BUILDS GUN BUILDS THENTHIS FUCKING GAME LOVES GASLIGHTING ABOUT WHATS GOOD AND WHATS NOT
>>538969215Because her spirit skills were buffed like a week ago which is the only reason why she's somewhat good now, before she was just a bad character. Plus the only popular builds for her all originate from Xera who is like the only big streamer who regularly plays Vyper and he only builds gun builds and farms archon players with it.
I'm new to this game. Can I just auto select items?
>>538969037>duuuuude they buffed the dagger scaling from 0.74 to 1.0 that means it's op and the META to play the character designed entirely around shooting her gun
>>538969740>character designed entirely around shooting her gun>3 abilities that scale extremely well with spirit and have super low cooldowns>1 slide ability that doesn't even interact with her gun aside from making sliding easier>character designed entirely around shooting her gun
so why does sliding give infinite ammo anyways? it's cool and all and the added skill expression is nice but it feels kinda random/arbitrary
>>538970087Because it's cool.
>>538962910>>538965206https://files.catbox.moe/4v9e4e.mp3
>>538969436yeah here you go champ
>>538969037i'm gonna play spirit vyper and if i do like shit it's your fault>>538969849>
No surrender option in 2025 is so gay. Stop wasting everyone's time. Not everyone is a no-lifer tryhard. This is why young people refuse to play Dota and Deadlock
>>538970407It's not my fault if you play like shit.
>>538970441ya'll ask that as if there wouldn't be spiteful fags on your team willing to waste your time to "punish" you. Look at league, it has one yet everyone hates their mates
>>538969849>infinite ammo doesn't interact with your gun
>>538970441I actually want to play the game instead of pressing the forfeit button when I die once in lane.
>>538970973That's a universal mechanic and not something granted by any of her abilities.
>>538970941That's an uncommon occurrence. Most of the time they just surrender and go next.>>538971014Surrender usually only becomes available past 20 minutes.
>>538971150Games in Deadlock that you're guaranteed to lose are usually lost by 20 minutes anyways. A forfeit button would literally be a waste of development time.
>>538969849i'm sure the hero with tags "gunner" and "rat-a-tat" isn't designed for shooting her gun
>>538971369She has a gun and is designed to shoot it, yes, but she is absolutely not designed entirely around shooting her gun. Do you think playing a spirit build means you don't ever press m1?
https://files.catbox.moe/tg5rtp.webmHonestly well done.
>>538971474do you think a character being primarily designed around her gun means you can't build spirit on them
>>538971550Obviously not, but how is Vyper even primarily designed around her gun? The tags are meaningless compared to what her abilities actually do.
>>538971345This is false. They usually drag out until 30 minutes because winners want to farm some more, while losers try to farm only to get picked off by the winners. Teams want a lead of 50k + rejuv "just to be sure", only to demolish the enemy team 4v6 without either.
>>538971747>>538971369>mfw people build spirit victor instead of can't victor
>>538972339my victors usually build the "kill me" victor
>>538972367>my victor>"kill me" 0/11/3>their victor>infuser, refresher, escalating exposure, every spirit resist item>need to kill him 4 times and half your team is dead and all your walkers are gone by the time he's actually dead
>>538972518>every spirit resist itemstep aside spirit trannies, I'll take care of this one
>>538972704Every time I'm up against Victor I wish I was playing McGinnis because she melts him with her stupid overpowered gun.
>>538970441surrender is the worst shit you can have in a moba
>>538959969>she bat-dashes up to get a big ult on our team>curse>plummets like a wet towel and gets instantly deletedThere are few feelings better than this
>>538972995Yet every MOBA with surrender has become the best in their respective market. League on PC, Honor of Kings on mobile. Both MOBAs with surrender. Meanwhile DOTA 2 has been 2nd place since forever.
>>538970541
>>538973768Since when does popular mean best? I have friends that played a lot of league and they always sounded miserable when they played it and hated the game, they were just addicted to it.
>>538973768>knowing anything about the phone game kusoge assfaggotsdisgusting
>>538960184>zero objective damage>not even hyperbole, literally zero shots taken at objectives for nearly 20 consecutive minutes>four (4) (66% of) people on the team have literally zero objective damage
>>538973768All because of Tencent
>>538973906DOTA and Deadlock players are more miserable because they have no surrender option. That's why DOTA don't really get new players anymore. They would rather play MOBAs that respect their time.
>>538974148But I love deadlock, I always have fun playing this game. I don't play dota though.
>>538974148Having my teammates give up while I still want to play the game is not fun. You always have the option of leaving the game if you're going to be a pissbaby.
>>538974148Why aren't you playing league?
>>538969436>>538970301and when in game just check the box to "auto queue items" and "autobuy items near shop" and you're set
>>538974279I don't want a penalty
LETS SEE WHAT THIS DICK CAN DO
Lash is objectively the most fun hero in the game.Prove me wrong.
>>538974581>>538974564>didn't paint himself bluesad!
>>538974226That's nice. You enjoy hopeless games that drag out ~30 minutes. You must have so much free time.>>538974279You can convince your teammates that you can carry the game alone. Convince them not to surrender. But forcing them to stay would be selfish of you. Everyone should have the right to vote for surrender.>>538974380I play multiple MOBAs
>>538974564>>538974581lmao
>>538974496>>538970301thanks senpai
>>538974279Then you better not be a pissbaby when I'm feeding the enemies continuously.
>>538974659But they're not hopeless games.
>>538974596I remember his stomp having some weird hitboxes if you landed on barrels or props
>>538974659Turn off your PC if you are not trying
>>538974638>encouraging bluefaceLet's not be ixiist bro.
>>538974680No worries and it might be tough to find initially. I do recommend learning items as you play and start with bots first.
>>538974704That one in a thousand games where you won a 50k deficit certainly gave you unforgettable dopamine rush. But when you look back on your history, there were many more games where miracles didn't happen.
>>538974659Just disconnect nigger
>>538974953So what? It's not like I'm being paid to win games. Even losses are fun most of the time.
>>538975061Losing is inherently not fun because dying means not playing. Unless you enjoy not playing.
why didn't anybody tell me Yamato is the most fun hero in the game?
I keep picking the SHITTIEST characters offering ABYSMAL performance to derank by subtly throwing because I am constantly getting STOMPED and yet I keep getting carried LET ME OUT OF THIS SHITHOLE
>>538975447aren't you supposed to be playing marvel rivals necros?
>>538975301Losing doesn't mean feeding.
>>538976817he feeds though
>>538976817Losing means higher risk of dying when trying to take objectives. If someone loses with few deaths, that just means they either play ranged carries with escapes (for example Wraith and Mina), or doesn't participate in teamfights. Either way, the losing team will eventually have to contest objectives (such as midboss) and sacrifice a few people (if not outright wiped). So dying is a feature of losing.
>>538977325But you're still playing the game if you're not just dying on repeat as soon as you spawn in you know.
>>538977424And yet, it is objectively true that people who lose, would automatically play less than the people who win. Because death is a thing.
>>538957727ODIN BIDS US PACE

>>538971134Stop being disingenuous, basically every gun character these days builds for being able to achieve instant-slide m/s during combat to keep gun DPS up, and you're here claiming a character with a passive that makes sliding easier to maintain doesn't get any benefit for their gun out of it.
>>538969740The dagger scaling is like, 0.46. it's ASS.
Why is Mina so hard to play? She has like a 42% win rate
>enemy winds up heavy punch>press parry>get successful parry sound>take full damage anywayswhy does every game without fail have to include some client side mechanic that lets high ping thirdworlders who shouldn't even be in my games abuse their bad internet
>>538971747>1 does no damage, it's just a spammable slow, scales terrible past lane>2 is for finishing up targets (I.E NOT DOING DAMAGE ITSELF), and its tier 3 upgrade makes it so you can trigger it just from SHOOTING PEOPLE>3 is slidemaxx, better slide and stamina plus res while sliding, sliding is good for gun because you get infinite ammo and does literally nothing for any spirit anything, gun is specifically designed with this passive in mind (high fire rate, low ammo, low reload time)>4 turns enemies into stone because muh snake medusa flavour and literally no other reason, damage is literal dogshit for an ult, stun is too short and you can't do much with it so it's mostly for disengaging or pinning down someone so your team can rape them, if this was supposed to be a damage ability it's very poorly thought out because its whole gimmick is turning people to stone and if you do too much damage they just die and what's the point at that pointbut this is a spirit hero
>>538979054Your nastiest damage being nearly melee while you’re a squishy character probably dazes and confuses people
Goddamnit. I really enjoy playing Vic, but I'm starting to hate feeling like dead weight until late-mid game...I know gun has a more even performance by time, but I can't track well enough to maximize that.Is there any item I can rush that'll let him come online earlier?
>>5389803121 does like 400 damage with boundless and tankbuster on a 4 second cooldown2 does like 900 damage with tankbuster and boundless when they're at 25% hp and can be triggered just by shooting people when you max the skillHer ult does like 900 damage with tankbuster and boundless on like a 30 second cooldown.
yuro lobby? Also how is holyday nowdays
>>538980637>1 does like 400 damage with boundless and tankbusteryou are trolling
I've deepened my realization that the only reason shitters pick Mina, Haze, Seven and Infernus is because they absolutely suck at the game. They can't do movement or skill shots, and they can't do objectives firing, so they pick these super simple heroes thinking that's going to help them contribute and go up in ranks. They don't counter pick items, like Drifter here is super farmed neither Haze, Mina or Seven picked bullet resist and got shredded by him every match. They have only 1600 items for resist and took thousands of damage from Bebop alone. Typical Seven contribution to fight:>Shoot at someone>Get jumped>Panic throw stun, ball and dodge for his life>Die during panic ultimate, doing 0 damageTypical Haze contribution to fight:>Shoot at supports>Get jumped>Panic throw dagger, hit stealth and try to run away>Die during panic ultimate, doing 0 damageTypical Mina contribution to fight:>Stand way behind fight>Usually farming creep wave>See 3 enemies>Throw ultimate in panic >Miss everyone important (for silence) or they run to cover easily>Teleport away twice in panic>Return to jungle>Get ganked or watches base get destroyed while jungling>Die doing 0 damage These players will never buy knockdown, curse, focus lens or anything that might help your team win. It's pure "ME, ME, ME" and lack of skill. We lost this fight with rejuv as they threw themselves into 1 lane and died instantly.
>>538980729No that's genuinely how much damage it does if you build spirit on her.
