I think I'm actually shit at the game vros
>Calico could be this if Valve had some ballsInstead we get a dumpy grocery store auntie and a hairless cunt of a cat...
Unironically in the Arcane-esque Deadlock animated TV show, who would make the best protagonist?
>>542960820sucks to be you, I'm in the top 1%
>>542961112mo and krill, obviously
>>542961112You posted him.But real choice is Creepshow anthology narrated by Doorman as Crypt keeper
>>542961112abrams
>>542961112the drifter who kills all the other characters for being stereotypical cliches and worst of all, new york scum
How do you counter Victor once he gets rolling?
Genuinely the worst match I've ever been inWhy is this allowed
>>542961729>didnt report the smurf drifter
>>542961729Match number?I can probably tell you why...
>>542961779He wasn't smurfingThey were running down unironically. Literally just walking up to enemy walker to die on repeat for 14 minutes>>542961794I can tell you why as well. It wasn't a real game. It was a glorified botmatch
>>542961779That's not a smurf.THIS is a smurf.
>>542961729>match STILL took over 30 miutesYikes!
>>542961954the fastest matches are 25 minutes, definitely need to be able to end by 15 imo
The black woman of Valve unοriginality.These are TWΟ different characters.
>>542962181BASED
UPDATE WHEN VALVE HUH!? THOS FUCKERS IN THE "REAL" TEST ARE EATING GOOD WHILE WE STARVE WITH *OLD* AND *STALE* CHARACTERS LIKE FUCKING BORINGBRAT AND DOORFAG!!
>>542962181Keep it up king
>>542962342Next week or the week after.
>>542961112Any answer other than Dynamo is genuinely wrong and soulless.
The little "vents" or whatever the fuck in base are the dumbest idea of all time
Why is it that I can only seem to win on Victor, Haze, and Mina?
>>542963361>voverpowered>hoverpowered>mlucky & carried
>>542963473>haze>overpoweredlol
>>542963559t. h
>>542963767no i play the actually op left click infernus and shit on hazetards all day
>0 and 10 mina>1 and 12 viscoushow do i block these people
>>542962961There should be some sort of switch next to them you have to heavy melee to turn them on. Leave them on for ~5 - 10 sec then a short cooldown then you have to hit the switch again.
>>542961112Pocketto no kimyō na bōken
Why does Paige have spirit scaling on her melee? Is she the only one?
>>542963816wait for draft mode to be released and permaban mina
>new to the game>wanna learn because it seems fun>get a BR Doorman who pause the game at his first dead, idles in base for minutes and then feeds the enemy Billy and Drifter>lane buddy Viscous is downright suicidal jumping on a 3v1 or punching himself into a mob>down to me and Geist>of course we cant do shitFor real Im doomed if I dont have a group of friends to get better at the game? I want to stick to the game but fuck me, this situation is too common in my games.
I was retarded because I didn't understand mokrill, but am I also retarded that I don't understand Bebop? I love playing him, but I am constantly losing with him.
>get characters I play>carry the game>don't get characters I want>team feeds uncontrollably and my character didn't even matter>loseI'm 100% convinced forced 50 kicks in by just absolutely crippling your chance to win. It's not even subtle like some games. You have to pick 3 characters because it needs to know which is most likely to make you mad
>>542961112Billy>the only actual character without an actual advantage, everyone is rich or magical or a demon or brings 10 guns (the horns don't actually do anything; he's just an alcoholic with a bat and cosmetic horns)>everyone hates him (underdog)>hates everyone else (redemption arcs/growth opportunities)>destroying the system (hero's journey)

When will valve add a hero with a deer motif to this game?
>>542964372I too am looking forward to the game's mandatory horsecock futa (canon)
stop stealing my champs from me
>Game A>teammate is new>Game B>teammate watches me play the game>Game C>teammate is new + watches me play the gameWhy do I have to literally 1v2 each match. No matter how scared you are, you can trade at least a little bit of HP with the enemy so I can maybe carry your ass
34 minute game btw>lose lane badly with him going 0/4 off rip>when one mo is left defending tower, Holliday retreats at full hp when the tower is literally one hp (I got combo'd to low HP)>call him out>seethes at me the rest of the game typing up essays even pausing to do itMickey Mouse type humans sometimes just enter your game it's crazy
>>542964420>(canon)Hold on, this dead as shit game had lore?
>>542964834It'll have horsecock lore when they add a deer girl
you will never have the banana without the courage to reach out to it
>>542964715I'm all three of those teammates btwgabe paid for my lunch so I could force your 50% wr
I don't understand what makes Calico strong. Her 2 sucks and her ult isn't that great. Is it just getting all the bombs on someone?I almost never die to her, so I don't know how she's raping all my teammates.
>>542965191Melee damage with a dash is fucking stupid. Unironically. That's the entire reason she wins lanesEvery other melee at least kinda telegraphs when they're gonna do. She just gets to hit you for free and fuck off with the stamina she didn't have to waste
>>542965191Low cd big burst once she has spirit snatch she can jump in light melee bomb and ult for a billion damage. Cat form is an easy way to find picks and doesn't require good movement
>>542965321But all raper Calico's I've seen level up her 2 last.
>>542965191might just be noobness but I've had multiple situations early / midgame where she just sticks on top of me during ult and I take 75% of my health while she's invulned
>>542965191she is the truest assassin in the game right now, go read what her ult does with all points in it, go read what arctic blast does, and go read what spirit snatch does
i love warden i love playing one man army i love minding my own business the whole game then soloing all their structures while the enemy dicks around in a lane
>>542963794yeah just cause youre playing the S+++ retard tier carry doesnt mean haze isn't also overpowered. Haze can win by abusing her midgame timings though before infernus gets online but most are too braindead and just farm
>>542965708what is the strat to solo push a lane without getting 4 man squadded or having your team take a shit fight and losing mid
>>542965408It still wins lane without being leveled
>all the character types I want to play are women>I refuse to play womenFuck you devs
>>542967749mommy issues detected
>>542967789Actually I didn't have a dysfunctional familyI'm just not a tranny
>>542967849You're also not 88% of this game's ethnicites and atypicals so that's unfortunate.
>>542967849>>542967749unironically you need to just accept that you are not your character in gamejust play maurice and krilliam because he's the most fun character in the game and he's also 2 men which means 2x the masculinity in one character
>>542968005Yeah I'm not a nigger or Indian, and I'm grateful for that>>542968048>trannies trying to drag everyone down with them, like crabs in a bucketlol>>542968060I'll continue to beat the shit out of people with Billy at the highest ranks actuallyGame only gives me Mo when my teammates die 8 times in 4 minutes
>>542968060mo n krill is one of the most boring ass characters in the game right next to kelvin
>>542968183soulless poster
>>542968180>only plays characters he identifies with>mains the ineffectual loudmouth poser that everyone looks down on
>>542968518I never said I play characters I identify with. I said I don't play women. There's a big differenceThat your brain only defaults to 'identifies with' and 'doesn't shows me that you're actually looking for things to identify with because you're a tranny
Drifter is the best designed character cause he plays aligned with his lore. Tell me how wraith makes sense at all
>>542968180Bro is afraid of getting cooties if he plays as Chun-Li. He thinks selecting a character in a videogame is a reflection of himself. Insecurity off the chart? Or just so utterly retarded he is unable to abstract himself from a character on a screen? I see he's also extremely racist, so it's definitely both.
>>542967749I'm not sexist but I also strongly dislike it. The characters just dont feel as cool
>>542968595nta but the fact you mentioned trannies when replied to makes me think it is you preferring to play characters you identify with
>>542968595>immediately lashes out on being discovered
>>542968618No I'm just not a tranny, but good projectingYou want half the characters in every game to be chicks because you're a pornrotten retard and probably say some shit like "b-b-but I don't want to look at a guy's ass" when you're meant to be shooting something at all timesI don't want to hear a woman making snarky comments constantly nor encourage devs to make characters like them because they have to fill some diversity quota
>>542968754>>542968758>trannies continue to ignore everything said and insert fanction into why people have to thingsI call you trannies because you using every tranny method in the playbook. You continue to prove me right. Your victimhood is showing
>>542968872but you said in your second post that you don't want to play women because you aren't a tranny
>>542968872>insert fanfiction
>>542968983Yeah in response to someone implying I have a dysfunctional family as my reasonIt's tranny projecting and it deserved to be called out>>542969024>says nothing of valueIt's called firing back, retard. Don't act like a tranny if you don't want to be treated like one. Play armchair psych, get the same in turn
>>542968763>accuses others of projecting>while asserting that everyone who is not spastic about this particular topic must themselves be equally obsessive just in a different waylol
>>542969118>says nothing of valueNo that was you, not surprised you're getting things mixed up though, you're clearly a very confused individual.
>>542969257>appeal to hypocrisy as only argumentlolWhen someone calls you a fag, you call them a fag. They aren't suddenly allowed to not be called others fags. You're getting a mirrored response because it's all you're worth>>542969275>tranny continues to say nothing while acting like they're winning anything other than the defunct dick awardlollmaoevery time
>>542969403>You're getting a mirrored response because it's all you're worthWhat a coincidence.
>>542969118it read to me as you saying "no, I refuse to play female characters in games because I'm not a tranny"either way you can play or not play characters for whatever reason you want, I think you're just contriving yourself out of having fun on a character if you think their kit would be fun to playthere are a lot of champs in DL that I don't play because I think they don't look appealing (e.g calico/wraith/haze) but I also don't think their kits are interesting enough to make up for my lack of interest in their design
>>542969454>lost the argument>response to 'no u'I accept your (tranny) concession>>542969467Everyone has a reason why they don't like certain things. They can be arbitrary, they can be illogical, but for the same reason everyone has different fetishes, everyone has different preferences. I just don't want to play women. There's no dysfunctional family, no actual sexism, I just don't enjoy it and no amount of trying to forcibly condition myself through the gaming equivalent of stockholm syndrome or pavlovian dog bullshit will make me like itBut when trannies start acting like trannies, they get called out on it
>>542969467I thank god every day calico is a boring black woman and not sexy at all because if she was popular that character would be beyond cancerous
>>542968763>nor encourage devs to make characters likeDon't worry, you will have precisely 0 effect on this game's development.
>>542969731that aint true, valve finally caved and added attractive women this recent patchthey bent the knee to gooners
>>542968763you are the only one projecting you stupid nigger, you let browns on /v/ shitpost you into making you too self conscious to play a fucking game
I thank my lucky stars I am not a reactionary who gets bent out of shape about female goddamn video game characters. Like holy shit are you 12 years old or something how can you be upset by playing as a chick
>>542969618up2u how you want to go about it, it's literally just preference so nobody here will be able to convince you otherwisegoing forward I'm going to assume that valve will keep the male to female ratio about 50% though since humans are sexually dimorphic>>542969787I clapped when valve added a conventionally attractive female character
>>542969731>durr you don't affect the devsIt won't affect the devs of this one game because Steam is too big to fail, but also luckily Gaben doesn't require 70% of the cast to be niggers, Indians, and nonbinaryConveniently, all the Neon tranny fanfiction they tried to shove into the game in the first place was completely scrapped and even Pocket's they/them shit is completely swept under the rug and in no way emphasized. So I'd say something worked, somewhereOutside of this game? Everything who does this shit flops without fail. So it works, tranny>>542969819Nah. You're projecting by assuming everyone has to have some mind-broken reason for their quirks because that's how you've lived your life. Mind-broken
I like playing Lady Geist. I'm not good with her, though. I often see her have the highest player damage, sometimes in 6 digits, and I really don't get how people get that.
>>542969118this website has raped your brain, truly
>>542969867This we need to discuss stuff like Golden infernus again
>>542962539i believe shes missing something
>>542970764heheheh, you see dat shit?
>>542970764how come we don't have golden abrams
if your build's only way to get kills is to press your ult then you deserve to be euthanized
>>542970983what did you mean by this
>>542971080He's still mad about the Dynamo poster from last thread
Seven did all that because he wanted to be a cute girl X3
So i've been playing a decent amount of Dota 2 recently. I have played Dota prior to Deadlock and was familiar with mobas in general before both but it wasn't until after 800+ hours of Deadlock I was able to "get into" Dota proper. I'm having a lot of fun but it's mostly because there is just so much to learn, so much to do. Dota is definitely a definitely more complete experience than Deadlock is. It actually really makes me not want to play Deadlock anymore just because while i'm not eternus, i've learned everything there is to know and do in Deadlock and improvements only come from stuff like having better more consistent aim or w/e. While I think Deadlock has a much higher skill cap than majority of Dota heroes, right now the game isn't as deep. It's more straight forward and even if you look at eternus players stream they're really not doing anything that crazy or different most of the time from the average oracle or phantom player other than having better movement and aim.I'm really hoping next update upgrades the jungle or in general adds more stuff to do on the map.
>>542971287This
>>542970983>spams ult for ult stacks>spams ult for kills>spams ult for towers>spams ult for midboss>spams ult for patronhonest character gods report inpic extremely related
>>542960598Warden feels genuinely overtuned recently, but too few people play him for anyone to raise much of a fuss about it. I have a feeling his visual design and bland voicelines turn a lot of would-be Warden players off.
>>542971287Unironically this, Seven is fem-brained
>>542971434He's not fun to lane against so I'll never play him because I don't want to inflict my pain upon others
>>542971287/thread
>>542971287Put me in the screencap!
>>542969867thank god I have 118 IQ (extremely high)
is there actual written lore in this game
>>542972050Officially and in-game? Just the character bios you can read on the character select
>>542972050character backstories
>>542972208>>542972236thanks I didn't check bottom rightthey even have names for their guns
>>542970983cry moar
>>542972050Yes, character backstories. You can also gleam a lot from dialog and news report stands to the left of every base.
Replace drifter's passive with bloodseeker's passive. He is now fixed.
>>542972623Drifter's current kit lacks an escape tool so his presumably intended style of raiding the other team's jungle for picks doesn't work, and instead he's just another standard m1 carry that scales weirdly.
>>542972374>1k damage from a near hitscan ability that 99% slows>does spirit but scales with gun so you cant build something like spell breaker because she'll just shoot you with he bazillion gun damage anywayfair character alert
>>542970983When I Phantom Strike&Combo Mina or Vindicta out of the sky I know Im making a difference in the world.
>>542972776Hybrid drifter is a bit better to prevent that weird scaling but yes, he lacks the escape tool that calico has and her kit is more bursty too so she's just way better than him in every way at assassinating. He needs either a passive or ult rework. Personally I think the ult is cringe to play against so maybe that should go first, but the passive is also extremely easy to prevent from ever occurring. Early and midgame you just play 2-2-2 at all times and late game it's always nearly full teams so the passive isnt really active then either. I like the idea but unfortunately it doesnt work at all.
Wacky ass game>>542972776Your escape tool is your 2. In trades it lets you get free combos, but for actually running away you drop it on a mob (or their designated shitter) and run the other directionThat, and Drifters usually build speed out the ass + have ult. Turn a corner and use your ult, then no one's going to be hitting you except maybe 1 person that was on your assPlus as the other guy said, hybrid Drifter. A lot of the time your 'escape' is just instantly killing the support you used as an escape route
>>542973301>m on team>lose
>>542973301>bro just hold a third of your damage to get away no fuck off
>>542973463>2>third of your damageBro..Anyway if you're too retarded to get out of the enemy jungle normally, then if you want to invade just hold the damn button or play better, idc. It's that or dying/never invading
>>542973301Show me one mob camp that's in range of another mob camp that won't be instantly cleared out early game.
>>542973541Works on my machine. If the enemy was allowed to clear the entire jungle before you even started invading, you're doing something wrong
>>542973527How about they fix him instead. He is unplayable unless you are like 50% better than the enemy
>>542973664I play him in Eternus with no issues. The only problems I have with him are how passive you have to play in lane vs anyone worth playing againstI'll still take the buffs but, like, it's not that fucking hard bro. If you're playing at a level where any of this shit even matters, then you should also have the skill to keep track of escape routes in case shit goes bad. Invading good players is always a risk, but Drifter is still one of the best at taking over the jungle
>>542973758I would like to be able to play him without kamikazeing that's all. The passive change would make him be more annoying and less killy but also less die-y.
>>542973927The problem is that Drifter, when ahead, decimates people beyond most characters because of his sticking. If he also had good escape pre-items, he'd be unfathomably OP. + braindead You already have the advantage in every gank and know when people are coming to stop your invade due to his passive, you'd be genuinely unkillableMap awareness, knowing escape routes, and building speed is the best you'll get. So you've gotta make do
I call this build the "I carry the urn so you don't have to." The flying carpet is such a goofy fun item, specially for escaping the gun hyper carry in the late game, I love it!
How come I almost never see anyone use bullet resist shredder?
>>542974127can you use that while carrying urn?
>>542974541ill buy it on haze after tesla if im getting particularly fucked
>>542974541because, honestly, bullet resist fucking blows.
>>542974774Basically every m1 character also has some spirit damage bullshit going on
>>542974541what rank are you?i see it all the timereally good item>>542974774they get negative bullet resistso you deal bonus damage even to a target with 0 bullet resist from itemssame for spirit resist shred
>>542975224sure or you can just build more damage with actual good stats or passive and kill them just as fast
>>542961273you're such a momo!
>>542971434i had a friend recommend that i play warden because i like waveclear and shoving lanes and pushing objectives and he said warden flask build just deletes creep wavesi put him on my roster but have yet to get him in a match
>>542974584Nope. However I use it in conjuction with my level 3 ult to be a flying orb in the sky. It's an active item that is more of a goofy meme than anything practical but man is it fun!
I've cracked the code:Victor is the Anti-Infernus. His kit totally shuts Infernus down, and other carries pretty hard as well... all bc of one level 3 ability upgrade:-4s cd, purge all non-ultimate debuffs upon use for his jumpstart.Fuck Infernus, Fuck Haze fixation, Fuck everyone.He needs to be slowed by his aura of suffering too, he's OP, but he also counters all the other nasty fucks innately
>>542976798you're in shitlow where infernus doesn't max his 1 before his 2 when against victor
feels nice
>>542976078godspeed soldier
>>542971434If the enemies are too stupid/stubborn to fight him in ult he's good. If they have the discipline to just walk away and wait it out he is ass.
>>542961112Pocket if you're lame and gay, Abrams if you want an actually intereting premise.
>>542977624abrams is main character material
>>542976798>haha look I removed your afterburn!>oh god of fuck toxic bullets really hurt
>>542977656MC talk aside, Abrams has a background perfectly suited for diving into the more gruesome and supernatural aspects of the setting and interacting with many other characters. Pocket's whole shtick is ''ugh Im so sad, and I hate my dad, and the magical shit I carry is dangerous'', BORING. Of all revenge plots in the game (and there's a lot already) his is the worst by far.
>joining paradox requires legally changing your name to paradoxwouldn't this just make it really easy for feds to know who's in paradox though
>>542961729this is fucking hilarious, genuinely the worst I've ever seen. TWO people on the same 0-14-1 statline. Crazy
>>542963361>Minabroken>Victorgood>Hazeeither decent teammates that followed up on your assassinations or carried
>>542970491They swap a lot.
I've decided to try to build Life Drain on Lady Geist. Does buying Boundless Spirit make sense on her? She is decent scaling.>>542978154Oh, okay, that makes sense.
I think Victor would be the best pick for protag. He's an amnesiac, fairly new to the world, travels a lot, and says Yes to a lot of things. Having him team up with a character for a few episodes as they resolve their little arc and then leave him would be a good setup I think.
>know i'm playing like shit>losing game>team flaming eachother>somehow i have avoided catching any flak despite playing like shitwhat does this mean
>>542978395Meant to quote >>542961112Alternatively a show that jumps around the timeline and shows us Grey Talon at his prime, Calico when she was at the Baxter Society, Seven getting arrested, etc.
>>542977864I think his big thing is that in his lore he's not really beholden to anything or anyone else either, he's just a PI that suddenly has to deal with a book that's happened into his possession, it's a fairly blank slatevery easy for him to be the unbiased straight man of the setting that the viewer can look at even without having a lot of exposition

>>542978395WHAT IF: Victor and Abrams work together to identify whom Victor's parts have belonged to and trying find out who created Victor to begin with. The ''Sum of the Parts'' episode
>>542978586Well he and Paige are the most normal people in the roster, except Abrams has the benefit of not being marvel-writing level cringe

Yamato visual update next patch?
>>542980139Forehead size increased by 50 pixelsthis is a buff
>>542978930I was thinking Victor would mostly be along for the ride and usually runs into dead ends. For example, he goes to Abrams for help. He decides to run Victor's fingerprints. On the way to the police station Abrams makes a detour after running into someone related to another of his ongoing cases. Victor is too passive to assert himself and follows Abrams, a third wheel, until he helps with a clue or asks the right question. Then later Abrams gets into a little shootout in a hallway. Abrams and the guy are yelling back and forth behind cover when Victor just casually walks down the hallway and takes like five slugs to the body before picking the guy up and pinning him to the ceiling. After resolving Abrams little case they finally make it to the station where the guy tells Victor it will take several months and there's a good chance nothing shows up. "That's okay. I can wait." He sleeps on a bench. End of episode.Next episode he wakes up to the sound of a very loud fella being shuffled into a holding cell. Weird little monkey guy. Victor leaves the station and finds a mole man hiding around the corner looking lost...

>>542981697headshot booster is more damage early game due to its lower cooldown and I don’t plan on buying mercurial
>>542980139>>542980187Wait, I never thought about this before, but does Yamato has a bigger headshot collision due to the long head?
>>542982601Is this a general statement or are you talking about a specific hero
>>542983003the latter but I’m not saying whoIt’s probably better on some champs that have huge magazines baseline but I don’t think the damage on the item itself is very good compared to cheaper options
Am I crazy or is this bebop gameplay complete ass?https://youtu.be/sYVe2jE-ix0?si=ZuHxewFKlAabvrCw
Got raped by matchmaking.
>>542983190Well its a bit of an apples to oranges comparisonIts for ammo not damage, and I think you also gotta consider the reload time because if your down for ~3s they can get awayBut in general you are right because the flat damage items are op early but they wont scale
>>542983512>geist losing to griftershould’ve gone suck build
what's the counter to doorman ulti?
>>542983671I have.
>another game, another match where I'm the only one who ever calls for mid when half their team is deadAt least the team followed this time even though it took 5 pings, we got it every time, and then we wonIt's fucking crazy
>>542983678I saw a mina blink out of the end damage, moved her too so his lineup didnt work
>>542983767what if i'm not mina and i'm geist and his billybebopabrams rape squad is waiting behind the door?
>>542983678Reactive.
Activating no brain mode
>>542983879Idk, eth shift? They might wiff the first stun on it
>lane has 2 full health players in it>I gank for them (Drifter)>as I dive, one of the laners parries the guardian>I continue diving>enemies are running, getting their asses beat>suddenly they both turn on me, start hitting me>that's weird, it's 2v3>I die after 8 seconds of struggling, both almost dead>look at map>both teammates ran away with full fucking HP????I'm so fucking tired of trying to help retards. This game convinced me that it's better to just farm jungle
>its another mirage buys mystic burst episode (it doesnt work)
>>542983921why do people keep modding in marvel rivals swimsuits like could they not make their own swimsuits
>>542984670Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made
>>542983953How are people still seeing ranks in post game stats? Mine disappeared a long long time ago
>>542984670probably because it's a million times easier to port existing textures than make new ones
>>542984921check your settings
>>542984670so they get (you)s on their webms
>>542965191Bombs deal decent damage up close and are spammable. 2 is genuinely one of the best mobility skills in the game after mina blink, ultimate deals good damage and lets you escape crazy situations. Cat form with points and some speed lets you cross the map insanely fast
Honestly I wish they would filter or at least separate base objective damage in the postgame screen, after seeing how much that inflates the obj damage stat through Statlocker it feels like valuable information to know who was doing the most to Walkers & GuardiansToo many games end with one team getting no base guardians and the other team having 6 base guardians + shrines to stat pad on after winning a teamfight. Case in point the player on the right in this table, had 7k obj damage which looks respectable and you would think maybe he did something for your team's macro, nope, 7k damage to guaranteed buildings after you won a teamfight.
Biggest comeback of my time with Deadlock. We had people say "let's just AFK", but I saw the game state and new that this wasn't hopeless. Also, suck Geist is incredible.
>>542983995>No bro you don't get it!>The Paige with no cooldowns should have ran past the guardian to do ?????>Yeah we both would have died and then I would have made an angry shitpost about how my team is so bad>But at least I wouldn't feel like I did something retarded all by myself!
>>542986423>hehe look at me be so contrarian xddExcept it was Mo and Mirage with ults up, which are literally the dive characters
>>542983921I hate coomers so fucking much
>>542961112Could easily be a detective show with Abrams following supernatural crimes around the city and when SHTF he needs to get Haze's help for action scenes.
how can “phantom 5” players be so ass ? 4 out of 5 matches my teammates have 0 sense of macro, feed relentlessly, think they can 1v1 the enemy thats 6k above them, or play too passively and end up doing absolutely nothing the whole game. i have more objective damage as fucking support dynamo sometimes than our carries
>>542988017Rank isn't about how good you are its about how many hours you can dump into the game.
>>542983190I feel like the bigger the mag the worse qsr is, you dont need to reload nearly as often so the main draw of the item is muted
>Vyper remodel is currently in the works but is going in a different direction than what was previously leaked. No more Cobra head >Yamato & Viscous remodel is currently in the works.MEDUSA BROSWE FUCKING WOOOOOOOON
>>542981264Its for M1 heroes

Back to your gachas coombrains
>>542988991sorse?
Is trophy collector a bad item now? Most top players are saying not to get it and I don't get why
>>542989889it was never a good item, you're buying stocks for 2400 when you could just get direct power
>>542989987But it pays back for itself fairly quickly, and then you stonks, no?
>Retard feeds and leaves>Game lost>-MMRWhy is it like this? Why can't the leaver be forced to take the MMR hit?
SEX WITH THE DOORMAN!!!
>>542989889isn't great for the simple reason if you win you should invest in useful items instead and if you lose it's a waste of slot
HOW MANY FUCKING BEBOPS AND I GOING TO GET THAT CAN'T LAND A FUCKING HOOKLAST 5 BEBOPS1 HOOK COLLECTIVELY IN LANEJUST LOSE LANE TO FUCKING AIR
>>542989681This clip showcases perfectly why disarming hex is a meme item.
>>542990076Would get abused by booster services
>>542980226Victor being not just an unwilling, but a straight up indifferent and accidentally snarky protag would be fun as hell, too bad this might never happen and we should expect some kind of "Meet the X" short vid at best
>Losing early game>The team is crying and whining>I just ignore them and continue doing my macro>Eventually have a chance for a good fight and win that fight>Dumb shit team is trying to keep fighting & pushing when I just go for an effortless urn>Snowball hard from thereIt's that easy. No idea why they still cry how the enemy's walkers are not all dead when we have a 20k souls lead from there.
Just bring the russian server back, and add the chinks to it.
>>542983921Curse you and your entire bloodline for this fucking cringe of a clip>>542988991First: source.Second: thats a fucking downgrade for Vyper and I hope Valve drop that dumbshit tourist idea for Viscous

I'm just trying out the modding scene. This one may have been a bad idea
>>542991019slowing hex is OK if you're a hero with CC or quick kill like Haze ult but otherwise noget silence hex instead anyway because it's just 1600 more for an item that has the strength comparable to a 6k
>>542990341>Two people playing like complete retards>"The item is bad"Silly Anon-kun
>>542990842This better be a bait, otherwise you've just outed yourself as the teammate who loses his team games.>slowing hex/vortex>knockdown>capacitor>silence wave>decayFocus lens in unironically shit since its a 6400 item which gets countered by a widely used 3200 item. Are you also the cunt who refuses to buy CC because its ''useless'' and ''for le supports''?
>>542991019I like silencing more, basically does the same thing but disables all abilities instead of just movement
>>542988991>Vyper remodel is currently in the works but is going in a different direction than what was previously leaked. No more Cobra headIT'S NEVER BEEN MORE FUCKING OVER NOOOOOOOO

>>542983921You make any clips of the yesterday inhouse?
>>542961112>Arcane-esqueso it'd be a brand new black female mary sue OC who gets created to specifically be the new woke posterboy for the game. She's named Harriet (after Harriet Tubman). Also Infernus and Holliday are revealed to be dating, McGinnis and Paige are a lesbian couple. Based! It's just like Arcane!
>>542961353This would be kino as fuck, I can already hear him smugly lamenting about a story with an unhappy ending
How is this for a Life Drain Geist build?
I have a good feeling about today. It's time.
>drifter afk farms in the jungle>has a tanky build>does nothing then dies like a fucking bitch at the endI don't understand, what did I do to deserve these kind of teammates? I just want someone which actually plays like it's a TEAM game
>>542993168I genuinely think Fartitude is worth getting on her
>>542993168if you're getting kinetic might as well get a few more orange items like spirit shred, blood tribute, berzerk
>>542993168Needs duration for drainmax
>>542961112this goober
>>542993168berserker is mandatory
>>542993662I think I'll replace Boundless Spirit with Superior Duration, thanks.>>542993648How much sense does Blood Tribute really make on Geist? She is all about healing, so reducing it would be strange.
The October content update that all the "in the know" streamers were talking about isn't actually a thing, is it?

>>542990069Trophy collector is like midas in dota, except midas is dependent on you finding one creep every couple minutes while TC is dependent on you killing the enemy team with a soul disadvantage (the cost of TC). Midas is like investing your money and relying on playing from behind while the investment recuperates, TC wants you playing aggressively. It's just a stupid design that's never going to be balanced, if yo have the money to waste on it you can just go majestic leap or something and get even more ganks, earning more money while crippling the enemy team even harder.
I got this last week and my rank has climbed 2 tiers (not related to the rank distribution change).I had no idea how much my old keyboard was holding me back...
>>542994183He's... built like me...
>>542995315Buy an ad
>>542990341the disarm wasn't even a factor in that fight because they just let him wait out the effect
>>542995432You can ALWAYS wait out the effect as long as you are not retarded
>Paige Deniers like Metro say she's B tier at bestAre they retarded, or is there an active campaign to pretend she's bad on purpose or someshit?
>>542994183They had to withdraw the design on the right for viscous after steams CIA national security advisor told gaben that the collective bara porn fanart activity was risking DDOSing the entire western seaboard
>>542995604
>>542995616Metro plays like 5 heroes in the game and will only play them when they're broken to shit, and only if you can win by afk farming for 30 minutes. His opinions on the game as a whole are worth as much as a new player's because he has never experienced most of the gameplay available
Is it just me or are every drifter mains drooling retards now? What happened?
>>542994298What do even "know" about it?
>>542995616Is Metro even genuine? I looked stuff up about his OW days and apparently he was a notorious for being angry and rage baiting all the time
>>542995809 he's feast or famine if he falls behind he's worthless
>>542995616Turns out a 625 + 4x spirit scaling shield and 275 + 1.6x spirit aoe heal + stun + speed boost are pretty good in getting your team to win games
>>542961363>noir urban fantasy detective show that starts off slow and then ramps up as The Tome is introduced and things get more and more intense as more people start gunning for itKino. Make it happen, Valve

>>542990702>>542990863>>542991225disarming hex is literally the worst item by far in every metric and statistic right now besides maybe metal skin which has basically the same problemswhy even try to argue against it? just to be a contrarian for the sake of it?>>542995432it's almost as if that always happens because the disarmed target can just walk away for 4 whole seconds

what is to be done about e-shift?
>>542996149> >>542995694
>>542996301Nothing.It's a 6400 with no other effect.
>>542996301massive cooldown reduction20 seconds is way too low
>>542996301Literally just increase the CD. Maybe reduce or even full on remove the stats it gives after it ends.
>>542996301fuck off
Why can't you retards play around e shift?Literally no Eternus or Pro player considers it a problem.
Thoughts on my hero design?1: disarm yourself to shoot metal shards at nearby enemies that deal ministuns and damage2: put up electrified barriers around your hero, barriers knock away and silence enemies that touch them from the outside3: shoot a long-range rocket at a location that reveals enemies behind walls4: grapple hook to an enemy, infinite range and instant travel time, skillshot
>>542996301Increase CD or reduce duration
>>542996732copied from league
>>542996558>Pro playerGame Status: Still not fucking out yet
>>542996149I am buying disarming hex against specific gun cores always and if there are 3Slowing hex doesn't magically make them stop shooting at you
>>542996832And yet there are 20+ pro teams already.
CC ass team can suck my dick
how do you counter a lights spamming billy? Take a gamble with parry?
>>542996558And yet everyone at that elo is buying it
>>542997038don't get close, losing the gamble is likely and then you'll be vulnerable. or save a lot of stamina and gtfo once you fail
>>542997038gamble for parry when they've been shooting for a while and they close in
>>542997059how would you know initiashitter
>>542996868There’s only two teams max per region worth mentioning. Most of the others are either variations of the same top teams with like two guys swapped out or completely dogshit that get gaped and raped to death in prelim
>>542996324don't reply if you have nothing to say>>542996864i didn't mention slowing hex at all
>>542997197Because I'm not whoever the fuck you were talking to and I'm in EternusAlternatively if you're just gonna be a nigger and say I'm lying, then you can just look at any high level streamer because, at minimum, Victor, Pocket, Paige, Geist are in every game and they buy it first item

>>542961112EVERYONE is wrongPriest would be the most BASED protagonist. Grey Talon would be ok after they rework him so he looks edgy and shit.
>>542998107I'm Arcanist actuallyIf you aren't invading and taking over the map the second you push a guardian then you're in a shitter squad and you might as well get the game over. This simple thing is the difference between a Drifter raping everyone and falling behind
>>542998006You could easily do something like that with Waterdeep or a similar fictional not!NYC
>>542997059No they aren't.It has a ~4% buy rate.
>Final episode of season 1 of Deadlock anime>Seven is ulting, electrocuting the entire friendly team>All hope seems lost>Out of nowhere, a familiar face appears in the skyLooks like the Lash needs to take out some trash.Whether he ults the friendly team, Seven, or both, I'll leave up for interpretation.
>>542997080I'd say that Warden's war against the Patrons would put him in protagonist tier.
>>542997451I'm sure all those heros are passing up on monster rounds/cultist to buy a 6400 item.
>>542998432I was split on him because on one end his raison d’être is very protaggy, he himself doesn’t feel like one
Lash is obviously the protagonist because his lore is blank. Its blank because its created by (you), the player
>>542998257>I'm Arcanist actuallyLaughing at you, lowby trash.
>>542995616her barriers are genuinely OP, she generates over 1000 effective health for 3 people AND a lot of weapon damage in any teamfight with an ability on a 22.5s cooldown with sup cd and her root is actually a very strong zoning tool
>>542998354Shadowweave is not as bad as cheat death, fucking eternus what are they even doing
>>542996558>no eternus or pro player consider it a problemfalse as fuck. i know several who dothat item is retarded because with transcd puts it down to 14s which means you have only 10s of downtime on the invincibility, and 6 seconds of downtime on all of the buffs thereafter. victor's aura persists through it too for some reason
>>542998006It was revenge for viscous, and a lot of other things. And there was nothing that we could do about it. Viscous was a made creature, and slork wasn't. And we had to sit still and take it. It was among the deep. It was real gooball shit.
>>542998014>What’s so benevolent about thatDo you understand what a criminal is or not
>>542972841its only maybe 400 without mystic shot, spirit burn or tankbuster
>>542998726>I know several who doI also know several who think Ricochet is OP because one Infernus one-trick player who will not be named runs it.Eternus players are retards too, anon.

>>542964272This was my first idea tooBilly has potential since he's obviously such a flawed goat. You could make a amazing show cataloguing his journey from a rage filled youth to a real, mature person. Like the doorman said, he isn't much of a character beyond his hatred.I think it would be interesting to put him against the other heroes too. At best he might have some goat powers, but compare him to Drifter, Talon, Warden, Shiv and he comes across as a underdog.
Why are there no fluffy female heroes on this game?Literally every other MOBA has at least one, and yet all this game has is brown women...
>>542999939He's pretty much the only ritual participant with purely altruistic goals at the moment yeah
>>542999939doesnt make him a main character
>>543000086Warden
this is a mina build apparently
>>543000281Warden's motives are dogmatic he's been trained like a soldier from birth
>>543000074Paige will get a vixen skin. Have hope.
>>543000293Every single one of these items is good on Mina not really surprising
>>543000520Jesus, this attention whore is here too? rope
>>543000520God I wish...Maybe a Bastet skin for Calico too?
>>543000536e shift on mina?
>>543000609And a fluffy werewolf Drifter.
>>543000520>WoW
>>543000630E-shift on any hero except Victor and Calico is a literal troll move.It's like Magic Carpet Seven...

>>542997080>Pocket>protagMeh list
>>543001524Yeah definitely those 2 heroes are the ones being spoken about right now
>>543000774Bro never played against e-shift Pocket and Ivy
>>543001296>>543001524You can stop pretending to be retarded nowNo one is laughing
>>543001621the conversation started with eshift mina...
>>543000774E shift is innately useful on any hero who relies on cooldowns or continuous effects, on top of being generally good in teamfights where you get focused.
>You want compromise, how's this? Twenty minutes on yellow lane I wanted the urn, but I compromised. I farmed our tier three camp instead. I wanted to take a walker, but I compromised. I got ganked. You see where I'm goin'?"
Just make e shift a green and everyone will stop using it, dont even have to change the stats or functionality, they are allergic to green
>>543001786>Magic Carpet is innately useful on Seven because it puts him in the air where he wants to be to press 4.You fuckers never learn?This was the same shit a year ago as it is now.
What's the general gameplan as Doorman?
>>543001964we are talking about e-shift lil bro, stop trying to shift away the conversation
>>543002117No.I'm pointing out that you fucking imbeciles are making the same idiotic mistake that Magic Carper Seven players did a year ago.It was retarded then.It's still retarded now.
>>543002017do damage with spells and cc with spells more advanced gameplay is using doors to poke from unexpected locations, make easy escapes, carting people into death
>>543000774Are you retarded? On Mina especially it's an omega get out of jail free card no other character can even match
>>543001964Seven goes into the air when using his ultimate either way and regardless majestic leap is half the cost (and positioning is free)
>>543002226There is no point, people were buying veilwalker on literally every hero like 2 weeks ago
>>543002226it's not even a remotely relevant comparisonyou are saying eshift is le bad because it has synergy with some kits like magic carpet? well guess what, you can say that for basically every single item in the gamepointless babble
>>543002318Yea but that item is green
>>543002284mina already has enough get out of jail cards she doesn't need to waste 6400 souls on one.especially one where she will die right after the duration ends
>>543002345ah yes, veil walker was actually le badit got nerfed into the ground because uh because it was so bad valve wanted to force people to stop picking it
>>543002508>waste>stalls for her other get of jail free card>purple itemYou are genuinely fucking retarded. It turns her single get out of jail free card into 3 while also boosting her main stat. At higher elo lobbies people actually position themselves in fights that stalling for 4 seconds means enemies have to back off or die
>>543002345>>543002508At least 2 people here aren't retards...
>>543002226>Magic carpet seven>Gets slightly better position for ultimate>Gets mobility on a hero that's already fastMeanwhile eshift>Counters 90% of the disables in the game>Advances your cooldowns by 4 seconds>Applies all dots for 4 seconds while you're invul>Delays your death by 4 seconds, cannot be bursted down in teamfights barring stuns or curse or slow reaction times>Disjoints all abilities>Gives you a solid buff when it's over
You guys are so stupidNo wonder Yoshi and Icefrog abandoned you all for their secret test server players
>>543002636Goal post>moved, didnt say it was bad, said it was bad buying it on every hero
>>543002914the secret test players that released victor only to be nerfed 2 hours later? Lol
>>543003463
>>543002962you didn't say that, you said (and i quote)>E-shift on any hero except Victor and Calico is a literal troll move.which is wrong because there's a bunch of other heroes that can abuse the item as wellpocket buying e-shift to waste everyone's time is like a classic pocket stratany hero that already has disjoint/invul abilities in general loves it because it amplifies the invul time and essentially reduces the cooldown of your pre-existing invul, so you can waste a fuckton of time and become incredibly slipperyany tanky hero can buy it as a counter item to waste even more time for the opponents and dodge abilities if they are getting cc'd out the ass
>>543000387Okay doorman
should black mobsters ult have a scaling damage conditional for how high it makes people drop from when the ult connects. we have something like that with the lash pound scaling.
>>543003870Not me retardo I only made the one post
>>543003870 eshift on tanks beside victor is trolling
the map needs spike pits and lava Also viscous goo surfaces that function like bouncy castles and floating platforms that move back and forth
>>543004141why are you interjecting in the middle of the conversation with a completely different take that you never actually mentioned then you regarded nigger
>>543004328Iirc valve talked about this and decided tryhards wouldn't like it
>>543004328and ramps at a 45 degree angle where you gain insane speed and fly into the air

>>543004864but holliday is right there vro
>>542961112Damn I just thought about the prospect of an animated series of Deadlock and that shit would be so fucking cool. Something that would serve as an introduction to the game and the patrons duel. Valve has always been pretty mediocre at "cross-media" and the Dota anime was an horrendous pile of dogshit. We deserve this. The MC has to be Abrams because he simply is the actual genesis of Deadlock's world. It all started with him in a genius's mind at Valve HQ.
>>543005168Samoa Joe starring as protagonist in a Deadlock animated series is something too good for this Earth. It just cannot happen
Do people really underplay eshift now? It needs another nerf
>>542988991was i the only one hoping she'd remain a trash lizard? :(
>Billy/Lash>vs Holiday/Geist>just fucking die because there's fuck all you can do in this noninteractive shithole lane>outfarm Holiday anyway>starts crying that I clicked creeps because it's impossible to play vs herGet fucked faggot
>>543005168Abrams is the rightful face of Deadlock>setting is Noir Urban Fantasy>Abrams is a demon gritty detective with a badass revolver and a cursed book who's been threatened with assassinations and car bombingsThere is no other character who more perfectly encapsulates the setting
>>542988991reminder that there is a nonzero chance that the devs sat down and argued about how big her snake titties should be.
>>543005736>Enter femme fatale with a cursed arm and french accent
which characters are regular ass humans with no magic or special bullshit at all? just lash and holliday?
>>543005168>a mystery series around some of Abrams' cases, meeting many characters along the way>grand world-saving plot with Viscous trying to defeat Adversary with noone else believing him>crime drama spanning few centuries, centered around Vindicta's death and revenge with OSIC trying to stop her while digging in the past happenings at Salem All of these would happen if we lived in a perfect world, but we aren't even reaching the passable levels. Or maybe we should be thankful for getting Deadlock and not Neon Prime instead, thats where all our luck went.
It's so tiresome.The game keep expecting me to carry retarded teammates.And they are not just bad players, but absolutely retarded.The game is basically decided by which team have the retarded player, then they will just lose the game.
>>543005873These a bunch a dozen these days, Calico, Mina, Vindicta>>543006019>LashMagic flog and ropes>HollidayMagic lasso
>>543006019Literally Billy. He's a human with a cosmetic goat and that's literally it. An alcoholic with a bat is his only gimmickLash is a body-building champion with high tech gizmos and ignores the floorHoliday is the closest to him in being a zero-power shitter but she still has all the tools, skills, and resources of a sheriff. Still more of an advantage than an angry delinquent
>>543005873Idk if Geist is really a Femme FatalShe doesn't seduce anyone, she's just pretty and has a gun
>>542960598I'd play this fag ass game if all designs looked like OP image
>finally got carried for the first time in 20 games or some shitLiterally every game is I either go 20/3 or we lose. It feels good to not have to do all the work for once holy shit. I'm allowed to lose my lane and not go into panic mode
>100% winrateone by one, ladies
>>542994183>leftfunny goo boy>rightrape machine
>>543006443wait for the abrams with tits cosmetic
>>543006292And what do you think the weird chains and effects when he swings his bat too hard are? Technically Abrams is the biggest normie if he drops the book, all he got without it are his brute force and his natural regeneration which heals his wounds and prevents liver failure.
>>543006235>Magic flog and ropesare they actually magical though? >Magic lassoyeah spirit lasso you are right>>543006292gizmos are fine as long as they aren't magical/spirit based for what i'm asking (which is why mcginnis doesn't fits all her shit is spirit powered)i think i'd be fair and count billy as well
>>543006235The ropes are never implied to be magical
>>543006339doesnt one of the guys in her VN literally immedeatly move to asking her for sexual favours and she just rolls with it?
>>543006731>are they actually magical though?They defy gravity and allow to lifesteal, I'd say this is fairly magical but also weird as we don't know where game mechanics end and lore begins. Same with the entirety of MnK kit for example.
Does shiv even have magic?
>>543006661Literally just tard strength. That's the point. There isn't a single thing across all his quotes, the available lore, or even his general effects that imply magic. It's all strength and impact. Chains' only effect is the punk-rock style effects that Spiderpunk has, nothing magicalAbrams is an actual demon that casts magic, built like a brick shithouse no human could match, with resources as a detectiveThe only thing stopping Abrams from being the guy at the 'end' of his hero's journey is the fact his book has some vague use-case
>>542995616Metro is better at the game than 99% of dlg, so who would you even trust the perma eternus or the perma hardstuck shitters of dlg that seethe and complain about him?
>>543006804You're mixing it with one of your doujins pal
>>543005736Indeed. His character is the most suited to drive a plot and introduce other (anti-)heroes. >>543006074Valve is smart for better or worse. They sniff effectively where the money is at and quantified Arcane's massive reach for sure. Also they've always used "original" ways to promote their games. "Meet the" series for TF2 and Dota's International tournament (an oddity at the time) for example. I don't have high hopes but it could happen. Deadlock is originally a visual novel afterall, it was a story before being a game.
>>543006932yeah i mean i'm not counting game mechanics, just lore and what is shown in-game
>>543006778theyre blue and they glow AND they transfer soul/whatever healing lifesteal is meant to be when using flog>>543006292she can conjure powder kegs, lassoes and weird jump button-pad thingys. she's magical alright.
>>543006212Having to do this while also fighting some overpowered fucks, either by design or got fed by said retarded teammates, is too much.I like the game but I might as well uninstall until they make it more balanced. Lord knows they won't ever be able to fix the retarded teammates problem.
>>543007031>Metronis better at the gameSomeone post that clip where he deals 5% damage to an abrams before abrams kills him and activates victors reincarnation, then he chases this abrams that's way stronger than him into 3 enemies that ass rape him, at which point he cries about stream sniping (despite being in the big casino that makes sounds across half the map)
>>543006661Yeah I'm sure the guy who leaps to orbit is your Average Joe
>>543000074Valve drones are gay as fuck. That's why.>>543000996This.
>>543007005>There isn't a single thing across all his quotes, the available lore, or even his general effects that imply magicThe whole business with the goathead implies some kind of a magical ritual, his chain from the ult also deals spirit damage, so some kind of magic item then?>Abrams is an actual demon that casts magic, built like a brick shithouse no human could match, with resources as a detectiveWell thats his biology, the actual magic part about him is the cursed tome. Same with Billy and his chains.Abrams isn't even trying to use his book for anything, acording to his ingame lines he has no idea what to do with it, its a last resort type of situation.>>543007031Metro has weaker mental than 99% of dlg, he deserves to be made fun of for that alone
>>543007545Abrams ulti is his book attempting to fly away
Game is interesting, can I please get an invite? https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199242862623/
I don't even mind if someone is noob and got outskilled by the enemy.But it's very tiring to play with retards that have zero map awareness and don't even look at the mini map.It's a mistake to make this a fps + moba hybrid.FPS tards are too fucking retarded for this game.
>>543002508>>>>>wasteretard
>>543007128>and quantified Arcane's massive reach for sureRiot once specified Arcane did nothing for the player numbers. Also Valve are a lazy-ass developer with very disorganised internal structure + bonuses system. I have no hopes for a proper animated series or even a hero cinematic collection beyond some generic trailer upon release.
What do you want/expect from a big jungle/creep/tower update?
>>543006991His weird trinket on the side is definitely magical and his whole shtick is ''me and the monster inside me'', definitely mystical.>>543007307Its such a weird gray zone, Wraith cards are magical for example, but what about her firerate buff? Is it some kind of spell she casts or just game mechanics? Who knows.>>543007545He's being carried by his book.>your Average JoeOfc he aint no Average Joe, he's a Samoa Joe
>>543007867I want to see them try making creeps work like in Dota 2 where afaik they give very little gold but they spawn very frequently and die very fast. The problem with that might be that the map is just not big enough and there's not enough objectives so it might generate more meaningless brools
>>543007623He did the demonic ritual to make a statement; he didn't actually get anything out of it from what we're aware of, which is why he's made fun of for it. It's likely also the reason the magic cops didn't do shit to him when they did go after Seven, despite both using black magic, as implied by one of his quotesHe did a ritual but all he got was a cosmetic head>Well thats his biologyAnd that's the point. Is biology is such an astronomical advantage that you can't even try to pretend he's just your regular dude. And even then, it doesn't matter where the book ends and he begins because he'll have the book everywhere; his character is represented by the book. It's like saying 'oh Geist isn't anything special once you remove the magic demon from her that'll come out of her at some point'. Yeah, maybe, but until that point, it's her power and they go hand in hand. Abrams has bullshit demon magic and demon spells>Same with Billy and his chainsHis chains are just chains bro. They're just chains. There's nothing magic about them, his entire thing is he's an alcoholic just 'that' mad at the world that he beats your ass. For all intents and purposes, especially with how he does a bunch of meta commentary, he's Deadpool. Anything fancy is more likely to be explained by 'it's funny, so it happened' over 'actually he's magic'>Abrams isn't even trying to use his book for anythingAnd yet half his abilities use it. So either he doesn't know what to do with it and his biology makes him a mega warlock, or he does know what to do with it but just doesn't have an end goal
some guy used the old deadlock music in this video about trying to save the APOLLO13 astronauts and its KINO !https://youtu.be/uCObwsXbSeU?list=FL8rI4r8mSlQ3k6b-VwHJbIg&t=4646

>>543007867>big jungle/creep/tower updateDelete jungle altogether, afk farmers and pve players deserve nothing. Replace with the Mario Party minigames.
>>543008345>Looks like someone doesn't play inhousesNope, I don't feel like socialising with this general
>>543007545>When this book tries flying away I'll be ready
>>543007031I have played many inhouses and there's only like 1 or 2 anons that consistently play on Metro's level. It is no exaggeration to say that everyone else in the inhouse EASILY beats Metro.
>>543008345>Ranking in an alpha is the judgement of god
>>543008613Well he literally chained it to him, could learn some directional flight next time then
NO ONE'S GIVING UP
>>543008907Are you saying inhouse players are above Metro's level or below?
>>543009397Above. I hatewatch that guy's stream every other day because he's like LTG and it's hilarious to see him rog rage. That guy absolutely should not be in Eternus, he got it because a year ago he was exclusively playing the most meta heroes, stacking and, to give him credit, his aim is really good.
>>543007867creeps that move around and so something besides looking at you and firing lasers
>>543009550Fair enough. That guy is always feeding soul bags non-stop and losing his lane whenever he's in my lobby. I've had him on my team a few times where I'm laning against an aimbotting Haze and somehow he loses his lane 5 times harder than me and the unfortunate guy having to lane against it
Just versed my first good Holiday after like 80 games (as a melee). That was fucking miserable. What the fuck am I supposed to do when she just comes flying in with a barrel and escapes before you can do anything back?
>>543007830>Riot once specified Arcane did nothing for the player numbersThat's true but Arcane completely failed to lead spectators to the game itself. They got away with elite animation but did not have great writers to tailor something for that purpose. The game is literally not canon. It's not like they had much to work with to be honest, League's lore is all gay and lame with nothing really cohesive to justify the battle. Deadlock does not have that problem. You can do anything you want and finish the series with :>NY>Patrons facing off >6v6 with immoral side like Geist vs Abrams and other good guys>4th wall break of the patrons telling the spectator to pick a side>Overhead camera pans out the streets of NY that draw the Deadlock eye logo>"Available now on Steam for FREE"
>>543009689I have quite a few clips of him raging. https://files.catbox.moe/xknp8a.mp4
>>543007867I think a roaming camp might be cool, doesnt have to go everywhere but something you can check the time and know its on your side
I tried my best. Unfortunately, I got put against a Haze played that I've already seen in the past who has people saying in his profile comments that he cheats in CS:GO, and with a team that will die IRL before buying Disarming Hex, Metal Skin, or Bullet Resilience.
>>543010115This is what you guys consider raging?
>>543010115I also have mental breakdowns like thisBut I play melee into siegefaggot charcters
Truly fucking blessed icefrog felt the need to buff paige this character isn't for degenerate drooler retards
>>543007867Mechanics, jump to avoid a stomp attack, a really tough one that takes extra damage from behind so you need one guy to hold agro while the other shoots, a spinning guy that you can avoid while crouching
>>542961729This is the worst thing I've seen in this game
>>543007830>Riot once specified Arcane did nothing for the player numbers.My pet theory is that Arcane was originally meant to bring people into the LoL MMO that has maybe sorta been canceled
>>543009550If they made feeding matter then he'd drop, rn if you go 0-10 you are worth no gold so your team can still carryThats the most egregious thing I see him do, gets killed a couple times then he is behind and is just holding w and feeding on cd
Metro is streaming right now and whining already by the way
Tired of niggers escaping from me on DrifterAm I just meant to go Silencing Wave or some shit so faggots like Mina can't just lol lmao their way out
>>543011038Yes. If you figured that out why didn't you do that already? It is impossible to kill anyone unless you got some sort of tool to keep them in place.
>>543011316I haven't really had an issue killing people in general. I'm just tired of Mina and Pocket niggers
>>543007818yeah?there's better items for mina at the 6400 soul mark.
>>543006991I thought he was a vampire/redeemed bloodsucker? Unless I'm going full schizo?
>enemy charges melee>I roll away>I'm nowhere near them>I get hit>I heavy melee someone in front of me>they don't even roll, I'm literally next to them by the end>it doesn't hitYeah okay faggot
>>543011575Mina has absolutely no issues dishing out absurd amounts of damage with minimal damage items. In the lategame however Mina has trouble surviving Silence Waves, Slowing Hex, stuns, Phantom Strike, etc. Deadlock is hardly ever a damage problem. Keep in mind that dying once past 20 minutes is like a minute-long cooldown.
>Instant cast>It fails to cast
>>543010115Metrobros... our 1k soul bag... our 1/9/1 statline as Mirage...
Metro is absolutely depressed on stream right now and whining at his teammates in vc lmfao
>>543011948tired of mina downplayers
>>543012112Watching the mirage games where he went 1-14 back to back to back was genuinely entertaining >respawns>ults into teamfight underfarmed>instantly dies>"this hero is too slow for me"
>>543012362That post is not downplaying Mina at all anonymous
>>543012362I'm not downplaying Mina, she is absurdly broken. ABL can forgo Ethereal Shift because he has 5 pro players peeling for him so that he can carry. In public games your teammates do not give a shit about you and you need to fend for yourself.

>>543002226>invulnerability on the close range glass cannon is bad
>>543009925>That's true but Arcane completely failed to lead spectators to the game itselfIdk, never watched Arcane, heard it has lesbians in it and my interest dropped instantly.>Deadlock does not have that problemI still don't understand how the Patron summoning works, its once per 50 years affair, so every summoning is a once-per-life opportunity for a normal human, but VN seems to portray it like something which can happen multiple times within a relatively short time period? I don't think any animation which touches upon the ritual itself will be considered canon because it will invalidate every other ritual outcome in the game.So whatever theoretical series can happen, making Ritual a part of it is unfeasible, so it will all be confined to a prequel. Might want to namedrop Ritual a few times, but thats it.>>543010690But they had a card game instead or smth? Then what is that animation about if its non canon, did it just never happen in the game or did it get a ''it was just a dream/illusion/alternate reality'' copout?

>>543015586>>543015703>>543015764NTA but even though he was made of handsome people the monster's hedious visage is what causes his isolation because he's a man made of corpses which looks so unnatural and evil you just can't help but feel terror looking upon him. You didn't read the book if you think the monster is eye candy
>>543015703>>543015764literally what happens tho?like he just wants to be friends with the blind old guy and his kids beat him with sticks and shit for being an ugly ass monster

>>543014167Love Bites takes an extra shot to proc and gets minus one shot at tier 3 Reduce range on 2
>>543013671I watched Arcane out of curiosity because everyone talked about. Story is indeed gay but the animation is simply marvelous work. It's a shame this much talent was put on a dogshit universe.Yeah the actual battle to summon the Patrons shouldn't conclude in the series of course, it wouldn't make sense. Just some skirmishes to spice things up at the end and put on the call to action (download the game).
>>543016059this and also make the cooldown for 2 only start counting when she's used both uses of it.cut the healing on kill on her 1 by like half too, no character should full heal on one button press even if her HP pool is dogshit.
>>543016059Loves Bite does not proc per shots exactly afaik? It seems to build faster the less falloff shots have.

>>543017531kekkeru I hate ivy too brother
>>543016204Well yes, a better insight into hero background could work too, Meet the X comes to mind of course, but more cinematic and not straight up humorous/ironic
>>543017531echo shard on what?
Needing to pause to use Drifter's ult makes me just not want to use it in important chasesI know it'll make me faster after, but it still feels shitty
>>543017531heh I did that last threadI hope she got eshift too and splooged kudzu all over your team
>>543017679you have to use it during a dash jump or with the stalker mark put on the other guy
>>543018000no he went 13 deaths on my team and trolled nonstopi am trying to hit e6 and it is insane how i have a higher winrate in eternus than fucking ascendant purely because ascendant games are dicerolls on which team gets moronic faggots
>>543016779it builds a percentage per bullet/umbrella/bat they increased the percentage per bullet and it made her the most faceroll broken laner in the game
>>542964272I think in a voiceline he mentions something about eldritch powers which he may have used to make his head into that of a goat to begin with, but they're unlikely to be his own power
>>543018260He used a ritual to give himself the horns, but they're basically cosmetic as far as all the information we have. He basically used black magic to give himself the n-word pass in-universe
>>542979031Come on anon, Paige is cringe on purpose and the writers are poking fun at bookworms
>>543018185based research scientist btfo’ing metacucksI kneel
>>543018405Doesn't matter, still magic. You could say then ''oh Holliday's lasso, Abram's book are just items and the Oathkeeper and Geist are different entities so they all lack magic'' by your definition
>>543018592Being born of magic doesn't mean it actually does anything. The others have a natural advantage 'because' of the magic. He doesn't get anything, it's just an excuse for why he has it. Magic lassos and demon magic =/= funny horns for jokes. Don't be disingenuous
>>543018457Shit on purpose is still shit. I hate the self-diagnosed she/her paigeniggers and their dogshit attempts at being funny in the game chat. making her was a mistake.
>>543017668Just some little movies on their backgrounds would be cool too ye. Anything would do to get things going really. The untapped potential of Deadlock's universe is unreal. I think it could be way more than just a game quite easily and naturally.
>watch high level streams>a single enemy dies and the entire team immediately heads to mid without comms needed>my games>4 enemies are dead>team refuses to go there even with me pinging and comming multiple times, and often doesn't even get the walker they ran out because they got held off by one person
If I look on the build guides, which one would actually give me the best tanky Victor?If they all actually suck, give me a better one.
>>543017153yeah smurfs and stacks have completely destroyed the matchmaking, this is part of why statlocker data is so fucked as well
>>543019051This is why it's hard for /dlg/ to judge balance. They say X hero is broken or Y hero is weak but they don't realize every hero is playing a team game and better teammates may consistently enable a hero better than lower ranks.
>>543019243Lystic's
>>543018712Funny horns, funny chains, funny bat with the weird particles. To me all of these seem fairly magical.
>>543019243Lystic is a real one. He grinded pubs and won a DNS game with Victor in his second weakest state (weakest being the few days after spirit resistance was nullified), and he claimed Victor did not need buffs from that state
>>543019316It's just a bunch of retards who didn't play Dota. Heroes like Puck had consistent 45% winrate in pubs while being extremely strong in organized play.
>>542971345I never noticed his shirt had flowers
>>543019316Is there any dispute over Infernus' massive unstoppable DoT that he can proc every 0.5 seconds?
>>543019617Dota 2 just never looked interesting to me.
>>543019468Even if 'funny' was justifiable magic, it still doesn't give him literally any advantage. The point of the original post isn't whether they're just magical. It's about him 'not having an advantage' compared to all the other charactersUnless you're gonna say he's actually the strongest character because he has Deadpool reality-warping through toonforce (punk-edition), he's still the least-advantaged of all charactersBut realistically, you're just being intentionally disingenuous
Why is it that when my team try to group of and take Blue walker they can't do shit to it, meanwhile when our lanes or split a single enemy with shit objective damage demolishes it? What kind of freaky hidden buffs do players get?
>>543019316its hard for /dlg/ to judge balance because the majority of you guys are below emissary, there was a post that legitimately said e shift is trolling on anyone besides victor and calico earlier how can anyone take this places opinion on balance seriously
>>543019316Why did you use my post to say thisIt had nothing to do with characters. Just general shitter mentality
>>543019572
>>543020090there was also that guy who said doorman cart is a worse abrams charge kekand this is on top of the mina downplayers
Valve has decided that today is my federally mandated loss day, so I will not be playing today.
hello i love yamato
>>543020208because dlg believes they can shut down broken heroes if they just buy 1 slowing hex and that works in the shitter ranks where people that dont know how to do midboss also dont know how to teamplay
>>543019572>>543020267Leaks?
>Infernus+Haze lane>hold down M1 to win
>>542960598Is slowing hex bugged or something? half the time it doesnt stop enemy form using movement abilities...
>>543020589it's a slow projectile and if they're already using the movement ability it doesn't stop themalso lag makes this look worse

>>543020882thanks ! im big fan of this mod too, though neon prime yamato is pretty funny design too
>>543020298Please more oneshota pocket yamato thank you
>>543020270this is the only general Ive been corrected posting factually correct information, like literal patch notes
>>543020878people cried about victor but honestly, whenever infernus is strong the game feels absolutely terrible to play
>>543020878we need more ivy nerfs clearly
>>543020878>that one guy complaining about how Billy does everything better than AbramWhere you at bossTurns out being able to do infinite 1v1s if the enemy team runs at you like lemmings doesn't win you 6v6s
>>543020765Yeah, but i tested it in hero labs and it doesnt work on Pocket ability ???? Like what, every guide online says to buy it against his ability to run.
>>543020267>>543019572Please be a spooky scary wendigo hero. Or it could be the Druid hero some people said was mentioned in the files.
>>543019572>>543020267alt gamemode?
>>543021105i think pocket is a little too grown to be the shota
>>543019932No my point was specifically about heroes having a magical component to them. I am as plain and honest as a man can be, we just seem to argue different things.
>>543021483Magic him to that age then
>>543021415Its the new patron for the Amber Hand

Which deadlock hero will get the Loli pugna treatmentMy vote is for drifter
>>543020878Mirage halal? Dios mio..
>>543021868Vindicta
>>542997080doorman reads more like the character who really has no affiliation and swaps between helping the protagonists and the villains based on whichever side he feels at the given moment rather than an outright main villain
Update apparently could be imminent, Yoshi and several other devs just went online for the first time in a couple weeks.
>>543022182I would greatly enjoy a patch on the day of the 10000 dollar tournament, the salt will be delicious
>>543022182Don't give me hope
>>543021934https://files.catbox.moe/0vz8un.mp4
>>543022182I'm scared
>>543021868All of them
Let's all cope really hard about an imminent update to force a dev response again
>>543022253NERFED: all the heroes scrimmedBUFFED: every ignored hero
>>543021868Vindicta due to lore and a ghost aging being silly.
>>543022182MASSIVE if true but probs not true
>>543022394man I wish I was good with Mirage. I never know how to build him or what ability to max first, second, third.
>>543019572>>543020267THE AMBER KINGdifferent anon and not a leaker, I can just draw A to Bdo post the CITY MOTHER as well, hurry up
>>543022756City mother?
>>543022705just spam him, rank doesn't matter and you can mute all.
>>543021210it’s gonna be like this for awhile because he’s new and deadlock players are genuine faggots who want to win more than have fun>haze has been top winrate in all ranks for years even now>barely any complaints and always downplayed>same with seven, MnK, ivy, etc.adding ranked has always been a mistake, can’t even have a moba hero like victor without m1ggers crying
>>543022705pro DJINN tip: all his 3rd upgrades are unfettered ass so you kinda want to go 2 on all then pick 3 depending on what you feel will be more useful between the tele and mark because the other 2 are basically never worth it
>>543022898https://deadlock.vlviewer.com/Games/Deadlock/DeadlockAugust22025/Audio/doorman_ping_pre_game_03.mp3
>>543022182FUUUUUUUU
>>543023026djinn 3 is very good what are you even saying
>>543023089I feel like shes going to be nerfed after I just got use to playing her.
>>543023089One of the leakers in the replies is claiming that its not happening, at least not todayBut that same guy has apparently been called out by other leakers with receipts that he is somewhat frequently wrong so no one really knows right now I guess
Mister Whiskers hero when?
>>543023089they removed the foot censor rightright...?
>>543023131it's not that good, i mean unfettered as is an exaggeration but it's better to put 2 in all than to rush ityou mostly buy gun so the nuke isn't even that powerful and comparatively speaking most heroes have really good T3 upgrades
>>542960598
>>543023402noice
>>543023391unc is living in the past again, there was patch at the beginning of the month that made djinn builds better than gun builds
>>543023402OH SHIT
>>543023402alright yeah it's totally happeningif not today then at least next week
>>543023557>teasing on a friday and not releasing for the weekendwould be fucked up
Leaker claims that the Patrons/map updates probably not coming to public build until next year
>>543023402excuse me, I didn't order this kino
>>543023402Finally, the place looks like a ritual site.
It's up
>>543023402we're so back>>543023785it's so over
>>543023785IT'S FUCKING OVER NOOOOOOOO
>>543023804It won't be up for the next 3 hours. I know this because updates always happen at midnight of my local time.>>543023785Might be a false message. Would be a strange way to communicate this. But if it is real, I wouldn't be surprised, we just had another big model heavy update.
>>543023785Might as stop playing until next year then
>>543022182They're just going to nerf Ivy and Abrams and call it a day
>>5430234022 stores?

>>543024243Ah! You found me!WELCOME to the secret shop
>>543024243the spawns are on the sides
>>543022705 mark mirage v9The general thesis is syncronizing your mag size/fire rate to your mark so you max just before Lane>mystic regenFor regen>extended magBought for stat from investment, we wont need the + ammo until 12x unlock>Extra health(or regen/Healing rite)For soul Efficient stats, sold later*can skip this whole category for powerspike, im experimenting The power spike>compress cooldownImbued the mark >QsR Imbued to mark, should be able to magdump, qsr at maxstacks/0 ammo, then mag dump again for 2 max stack procs>Lane TipsPlay safe until powerspike is online, then hit and run around your qsr cooldown. You are a lane bully and should win most matchups through harassment Midgame>enchanters emblemflat spirit is preferred for mark, gives cdr> spirit shielding, or spirit lifesteal Shield is taken over lifesteal for tempo, lifesteal will scale better > Escalating resilience Armor stackswith evasion, need the ammo for the 12x which will take 6.8s with our cdr(compared to a 7.1s magdump, gives us leeway to pick up a little firerate(3 precisely) from boxes until we upgrade our compress cooldown*At this point we are at 3.2k thresholds for our stat bonuses>Midgame TipsContinue with lane gameplay loop but add an emphasis on side lanes.

In faster games you should build the Inhibitor+ricochet combo earlier.The rest is left open for flexibility but would reccomend Duration, Magic carpet, juggernaught, boundless, divine kevlar
>>543023402i thought sapphire is gonna be the one going full occultey, amber had all the industrial pipes n vents n sheeeitstill, looks great. kinda reminds me of last on that one overwatch map (actually, so does the soul count on the top...)also yet another change to the HP amount's font. i think the OG one looked the best, the new one is poopy and this one is too "gothic" (for the lack of a better term)
>>543023402>>543023785just noticed in the map that sapphire seems completely untouchedyep it's 100% over
>6mb update
>>543024408thanks mang
>6MB updateIDS HABBENDING!!! :DDD
>>543023402>>543023785so deadlock 8 adds in this watermark and timeline? idk if i believe him or not
>>543024294billy doesn't get boners he gets red rockets
>>543024371speaking of,is there any other billy fanart in this/similar artstyle? he looks cute here
>>543023402YE->check accountrope. now.
>>543025454he's a goat not a dog
>>543025454he has a human body furrytard
>>543025507you stupid or somethingthe text was added after
Also more leak crumbs from reputable sources:>Sinclair, Yamato, and Viscous remodels all currently in the works>Sinclair described as "more refined, like in the style of an actual magician and his female assistant fitting the time period". Also the model swaping everytime you respawn is also a rumored goal from the devs.>Vyper too, but apparently they are "going in a different direction" from the design that was previously seen. Potentially not a cobra anymore. All subject to change of course. This all comes alongside new looks at the old models for Drifter, Paige, and Billy as proof.
>>543025454>>543025515he's not even a goat. Only his head is a goat. Also this new captcha is fucking ass
>>543025515they both look same t. knower
>>543025507I wonder how team fighting will work out in that base. Looks massive and dark and yet has a ton of cover. Seems easy for attackers to hide maybe.
>>543023402So beautiful
>>543025587Paige looks like that after I have raw creampie sex with her
>>543025670i heard all the playtesters hated it, but the secret alpha testers don't seem to be a bright bunch.
>>543025587>still no Warden redesignPLEASE
>>543023402it looks cool but i hope the patron fights back if he's in the pit, would look really weird with it just standing there as you blast it
>>543025587>Sinclair, Yamato, and Viscous remodels all currently in the worksNo Grey Talon news?>and his female assistant fitting the time periodThe female assistant (Savannah) has always used Lady Geist's model so far, so this isn't saying much.>Also the model swaping everytime you respawn is also a rumored goal from the devs.They added Portal mechanics just for Doorman, so this is very realistic.>"going in a different direction" from the design that was previously seen. Potentially not a cobra anymore. All subject to change of course.She better stay a snake. If she is some lame ass medusa, I would be very displeased.
>>543025905the newest layout is supposedly being recieved better than the previous iterations I don't think it will take as long as project8 suspects after they're happy with the layout to mirror it for sapphire, they clearly have a design for her already from the UI
>>543025587>Sinclair described as "more refined, like in the style of an actual magician and his female assistant fitting the time period". Oh boy, I sure can't wait for it to be a black male/white female couple!!
>>543024251Kekd. Still miles better than the dps test we got now
>>543026076>black male/white female coupleWhy do you care so much?
>>543025454And furries get the rope
>>543025928apparently, he is not even supposed to look like a cop?? He is like some kind of monster hunter with a cape??
>>543025587>sinclair model updatessurely this means buffs as well
>>542961112Abrams of course.
>>543026204He is supposed to look more like a Van Helsing type of design, which I really wish they had more concepts for.
>>543025976Looks like he's gonna do something with those hands
>>543026076isn't his voice actor a black dude? You can tell.
>>543026476hisamber hands?
>>543026076>>543026548both their va sound black
>>543026548um idk its really ambiguous, both voices are probably placeholder though considering how they never got new lines
>>543026548Not really, he sounds like the sweaty white guy who had to sub in for months when our high school wood shop teacher got in a wreck
Well, there was an update, what was actually in it?
sinclair always sounded like a scrawny white dude to me, but it's probably just placeholder voice acting.
>>543026723true. Sinclair doesn't have interactions with anyone besides his assistant.
>>543026723you type like a little bitch, I'm going to fuck you in the ass
uhhh ivy bros?
>enemy team has more stuns, and kelvin>automatically wins team fights, ganks>oh oopsie do I have a soul lead??? stat bloat makes them unkillableepic to the max
>>543026919she looks like meI... thank you...
>>543026076Kek actually mindbroken by propaganda. I doubt he'll be black, mustache plus top hat combo just fits a white guy better. That's how anyone would picture a magician of that era. We'll see.
>>543023402KINO ALERT
>>543023402I hope the new patron death animations are cool
>>543026919>this made /v/ cum in their pants
>>543026982
>>543026827sinclair having zero interactions with other characters is probably the thing that makes him stand out the weirdest from the casteven total NYC outsiders like viscous and yamato have dialogue, sinclair feels insanely out of place by virtue of not talking with anyone
>>543025883Yes, she got bedroom hair
Since the rebalance, despite winning/loosing several games in a row, i havent moved up or down in rank. Kinda odd.
where is our inhouse xisters?
>>543027356Seppos aren't awake yet xister
>>543025587why is drifter's portrait his prerelease one?
>>543027238he is unfinished as fuck. Sometimes I wonder why he is even playable. His assistant just being Geist's model bothers me.
>>543027461Read the post.>This all comes alongside new looks at the OLD models for Drifter, Paige, and Billy as proof.
>>543027494its weird cuz he used to have a separate model for the assistant and then it got replaced with a purple glassy geist lol
>>543027494if you told someone who's never played before that sinclair is the most recent addition to the roster, even after mina/doorman/drifter/paige/billy/victor, they would probably believe you
>>543027461>>543027564>drifter evolved from a hot hunk into jerma with oversized handsLmao
>>543025587but drifter, paige and billy already look fine. wtfalso her name is fucking Vyper, how will she no be a cobra anymore?
https://youtu.be/PnLOp-QEcY8?si=MRdJmN-9FoXnRrqXsomething tells me this will be a recurring issue
>>543028015>but drifter, paige and billy already look fine. wtfSee >>543027564>>543027848Improvement. He looks like he had his own vampire-themed designer jacket. I think he is better off homeless.
Sinclair will be an Asian man and an ebony girl. Screen cap this
>>543026076Savannah is a black name
>>543028191ludo
New Metro hot off the presseshttps://files.catbox.moe/pnb7gd.mp4
>>543028019they could have given him pox-lookin shit on the face and make his clothes kinda dampy desui always found his release face extremely goofy, especially the first iteration
>>543028440 ive had invisible hazes randomly shoot me off the zip and gotten triggered like that before so i cant even make fun of him in this one ngl
>>543028440kek. watched some Warith match where he died immediately after coming back.dude is good and all but he makes a ton of plays like that.
>>543028440I'd probably react the same way. I hate Haze. Any time I have one on the opposing team, I try to fuck with her jungle farm.
>>543028191So the ugliest couple imaginable, grim
>>543028191going for the chinese audience
>>543028019I remember when there was no ceiling and Vindicta could float around in the clouds sniping the entire map
>>543029350there was one patch where vindicta's flight speed was insane and people would tell you to buy knockdown but any vindicta with brains could literally just hover outside of knockdown range and still rape your team it was awful
>>543025976I think the effigy is going to just stand there and get shot, while the big spooky shadow fights people off. The idea being that you're shooting the effigy that represents the entity that hasn't been summoned yet
Good news everyone, Mina found her lost panties!
>>543029691This is what my mina teammate is doing in spawn after I lose the roll to play her
>>543029907I literally started spamming her because of this mod and I somehow am becoming okay at her when I spend most of my downtime enjoying the view.
>>543029691>no puffy anus>no buttplugdisappointing
>>543030064There is a buttplug version but I wasn't a fan, her anus is nice and tight in the pantyless version.
>>543030034If you needed the mod to want to play her then you don’t deserve the mod at allHope gabe smites anyone using mods in this game (with the exception of yamato modders)
>>543029691>no pubesyuck
I wish I knew how to play him, he's so cool
>>543030356play dash
>>543030297Vampires don’t have pubesYes this also includes drifter
Someone should paste Mirage's head on Abrams body as a skin and call it 'For The Gym'
>>543030605
>>543030396okay, I will try
>you can see Mina's buttcheeks if you buy Colossus on her
>>543029691brat sex
>>543030847you lied to me
Same leaker that released the Amber King pic expanding on the content roadmapSubject to change of course. Other leakers have said this guy's info is spotty sometimes.
>>543030064>>no buttplugShe's a vampire not a werewolf
>>543030572complete headcannon or every vampire would be bald(if I was a vampire I would shave their head in their sleep)
>>543031539It's Valve they always take months for updates. The way Valve releases content for Dota a perfect example to never expect any big updates in a meaningful time frame.
>>543031804I’m right Tho
>>543031539So, huge updates will come every 6 months or so? Looks like the game is definitely not coming out next year either.
Has anyone actually looked at how stats worked? It’s incredibly fucked. Each level gives you hp, spirit power, bullet damage, etcSo if you gain 50 base health per level, thats 500 health Then you add soul efficiency. Which, if you are ahead you have even higher % and a higher base stat to increase.THEN the actual items themselves. The snowballing in this game is ridiculous. You HAVE to vacuum farm everything
>>543031539>no updates until januaryi knew valve was gonna abandon this game for months again.
>>543028440Everyone here makes fun of him but he's kind of relatable in the clips. What makes you hate him? Is he arrogant or something? I haven't watched him.
>>543030572Drifter has a beard though
>>543032174>Then you add soul efficiencythis isn't a thingor you mean the item colour bonuses?
>>543031941There was another bunch of shit GabeFollower said, how Valve are effectively several indie companies slapped together. Deadlock is the golden child, Dota2 second, then comes CSGO and finally there's like 1 tranny working on TF2. So Deadlock is getting more freguent and bigger updates with IceFrog moving from Dota2 to it and back (which is why when there's meaningful work being done on Dota2 the work on Deadlock slows down and vice versa).
bros i think i may be irredeemable dogshit at this game
>>543032576I said this when I started and I’m slightly less shit now
>>543028440every single clip ive seen of him getting mad is justified
>>543031539fuck
>>543028440I've had similar shit to me (Haze appearing out of nowhere and insta nuking you from the zipline with zero counterplay)Is he a whiny fag? YesBut in this clip its justified.
>>543032478I doubt Dota 2 is getting any more meaningful content outside of cosmetics. There's no way Icefrog been checking in with Dota. The way the balancing been feeling has been completely minor. I'm not too familiar with CSGO, but I highly doubt CSGO get's much new content outside of occasional new map / cosmetics. TF2 is just fully reliant on fans.
>>543033234dota still gets big updates but the minor patches between them are clearly phoned in
if they don't give vyper a snake model that's a blunder, t's not like ivy where people have a lot of fondness for the OG
why is it everytime I get people with ghetto ass names I know I'm going to lose?>dayungOG>killagudblud>yn maliLike where do these people come from why aren't they on console?
>>543033824yo unc you is tripping dawg fr
>>543033552I'll believe it when I see it. Outside the stupid ARG at TI, and Valve winding down development of Dota 2. No hero teaser trailer this year and Valve letting PGL handle TI now. I doubt Dota will getting any massive update like the Facets / Innates anytime soon.
>>543032212If you see metro and find him relatable you might be a real subhuman
>>543033824game is free and has controller support
Deadlock inhouse 1/11XH6FT
>>543033714they saw how popular Mina and Paige were as waifus and how popular her voicelines are so they're making a sleazy Gorgon instead of a snake with arms
my favorite metro clip is when he jumps into zerggys team and hes trying his best not to insult metro after he realizes who it was
>>543033234Dota2 had a map size increase, neutral items and creeps rework and lots of balance patches this year so idk. But then Deadlock replaced Dota2 for me, so I'm no longer checking out whats up there
>>543034668You can link that?
is it worth it to buy a singular gun item during laning if I'm going full spirit eventually?
>>543034735I dont have a link, someone posted it here and thats how I saw it
>>543033824'murica fuck yeah>>543034641Hopefully not, that would be a disgrace
>Two straight games of lobbies far above my rank>Third game is two belowHoly fuck this matchmaking is so schizophrenic. I won the first game but I felt so fucking useless.
real talk why do people make fanart of mina and pocket together when her bio clearly states that she didn’t really like him and his doesn’t mention her at all
inhouse?
>>543035201>>543034496
>>543035114I dont really care one way or the other but its funny how Ive seen a few posts with this exact same logic but they never respond to the multitude of impossible fanfic gay and yuri art with shit like this
>>543034871Depends if you can aim. That gun damage adds up
>>543031539>an entire year for 5 (unfinished) heroes, 8 remodels and the bases not to look like WIP placeholders>all of this during the pre alpha secret test, meaning this is the FASTEST development will ever geti don't wanna say i told you so but if you expected anything else from valve you're a retard. they are simply not fit for live service development and any other company would have a fire lit under their asses for being this slow.
>>543035475>>543035475>>543035475>>543035475
>>543035383>an entire yearwe're in the last quarter of the year and they always take December off
>>543034871moster rounds/resto shot are the best laning items in the game and frequently bought on full spirit characters like shiv/pocket, not every item purchase is meant to stay in your slots forever, and every character shoots their gun, hell a lot of the spirit characters have strong guns early and dont buy them because it scales poorly
>>543035548late 2026we're in late 2025it's a year give or take
>>543035776late january you gluesniffersame timeframe as the 4 hero update
>>543035896ohstill too slow tho
>>543033824You think that's bad? This is tame compared to Russian names... is what I was going to say before I went to look through my last 16 matches. Looks like the names have become a lot more tame after I climbed the ranks. I'll post some notable ones anyway, translated/localized:>Swiper no swiping>Do you want me to fuck you up? (this is 2 words in Russian)>Mother didn't love me>Ay Burnspics
>>543036272>Mother didn't love meI can respect the guy being honest, and this is coming from someone with a crackwhore mom.
>>543032662i went 2/9 as mina i think i'm just fundamentally unfixably retarded
>>543034871Yes every hero benefits from hybrid. The first orange is like +20% if you count the investment stat + item stat
