>>548340473yoshi personally liked my post saying solo lanes were extremely frustrating and the worst part of the game, they are NEVER being re-added
>>548340584Wraith doesn't look like that.
I thought these retards were going to show a drawing of the unicorn girl today?? Hello??
>>548340759She'd be better if she did
>doing meta build>lose more games than I win>do my own build>win literally ten games in a rowHow many times am I gonna learn this lesson? Spell slinger can blow me
I will main Graves when she is released
>>548340701How about mid lane is 1v1, left is 2v2, right is 3v3. Gives some variety to the laning stage at least.
>>548340996No dude, no. Mid would just be lane bully versus lane bully and decided by which one is stronger in the patch. eg yamato vs mirage (not sure if mirage is even good in solo lane any more it's been too long)
>>548340996>we are back to 3lane with 2 supports sucking off a carryhahahahahahahahahahahaha no
>>548340759>>548340584She actually does look like that. It's just the dumb hat masking almost all of her face.
>>548340885>knockdown even though there's no seven This is how you know it's high ELO
>>548341285Her hair isn't sexy like that tho
>>548341285>always keeps her hat over her eyes to not make eye contact with anyone>always keeps her hands in her pockets>obsessed with numbers and probabilitiesshe has 'tism doesn't she
So what's the reason you aren't Eternus 6?
>>548341382True but she has straight hairs.>>548341574She also has 0 tact and always talks about her obsession even if nobody cares. I see it too.
>>548341701Im not good enough, by like at least 2 magnitudes, even the shitters people mock on streams run my lobbies when I play with them
>>548341701My aim and reaction time is dogshit, plus I'm impatient
>>548341701I'm an average man
>>548341378pretty sure he's phantomlow
>>548341875>even the shitters people mock on streams run my lobbies when I play with themname names nigger
>>548341701I am extremely bad at picking my engagementsenemies always juke away before I can finish themmy headshot ratio is very poor
>>548341701I genuinely believe it's because I play C and B tier heroes solo queue
>>548341701The times I've been placed in eternus lobbies let me know I don't belong there and honestly I don't want to
>>548342049I would love to know what heroes you are coping with
>>548341701why should I be?
>>548341701My teammates are all shitters
>>548341701E6 is mental illness and nolifers. Would I be as good as your average "pro" even if I nolifed like them? Probably not. Regardless even attempting to grind to that rank seems like cancer and I don't want to play with passive aggressive whiners that treat the game like a job
Every fucking match is Haze and Bebop, I think I've seen more Haze and Bebops in the last few days then I've seen Mirage ever
>>548341701I don't want to be eternus. I want to be in the rank that has the must unhinged voice comms. I love that shit. What rank is that
You HAVE been farming, right anon?
>>548342381hook characters are always going to have inflated pick rates.Haze is baby's first gun carry
>>548341701I play one game every two weeks on average
SEX WITH THE DOORMAN!!!!
>>548342647>seekerPls pls pls give match ID. I don't even want to watch your POV. I just want to watch a seeker match to see how the other half live
two threads ago. someone mentioned wanting ror2 huntress or something .thought experiment on how it'd translate.What defines huntres's playstyle? at base, without items. i guess it's nimbly running around playing keepaway. some verticality. range. no slowdown when firing.So i guess it'd be like when you first buy [enduring speed] in lane on a fast character. and nobody can get you anything that can be dodged.Run around playing keepaway shooting a finnicky projectile. leading or something. or innate wraith bending making it annoying to use since you cant look away.for the mobility. some kind of fleetfoot passive. you could maybe also let them wallcling or have the extra jump/dash aspect of [stamina mastery]if you were gonna give a blink. then rather one with no i-frames. don't need another mina. I don't want to see charged shot, talon float, or split shot. unless it had slow velocity, and needed distance to ramp up.Give them a cumbesome weapon to learn. projectile leading. or (the alternative from ror2 that shoots 3 projectiles that meet up at thier destination. that. so that you can mitigate damage by standing by cover. since some of it will collide with the wall. shotgun style damage distribution rather than drifter style splitshot.)Maybe take some inspiration from Wraframe Zephyr. incentives to stay in the air at all times. but that probably cant work without warframe's aim glide. do not give them improved movement acceleration in the air. but you can make them a little floaty.i guess thier ideal scenario would look like targets standing in the open. playing keepaway. relying on an awkward weapon. to which the answer would be CC. I don't think another character needs mina blink to deny cc. could give them a cleanse instead, but I thijnk it'd be better not to babyproof it. allow the item and counter armsrace rather than bake in an answer.>>548341701I'm stupid and bad.
>>548342819wtf is that lash doing
>>548342950No, but I'll try to describe it, it's sorta like an initiate match, but instead of being completely braindead, most people are just bad (incl. me)
>>548341701i'm just not very good at all!t. perma-alchemist/seeker VI
>>548343151I don't know what an initiate match is like either bro.
>>548343139styling
>>548340885nice triple
>>548343285https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFe9vCuBV14
as a fairly new player every match feels like a stomp and the avenues for a comeback seem less than exist in dota so the losses just feel even worse.
>>548341701Can't lead the projectiles at all. I played TF2Classic before this which has a Nailgun for the scout with similar fast projectiles that I could not use no matter how much I tried. I can lead rockets and pipes no problem, but the tiny fast ones are beyond me.
>game was better with 4 lanes, randomized players-to-lanes>game was better with 16 items and categories, 4800 spike is basically a mini retvrn to this>game was better with old mid building>game was better with soul rebirth
>>548341285I kind of miss the hazy oracle eyes
>>548343874Four lanes really served to teach you how to deal with solo lanes if you were stuck with them. Remember when Infuser was an 800 item? Better learn how to deal with it.
Those stat sites suck, somehow they miss half of my matches even after trying to upload them
>>548343874mid lane should be the central point of the subway with midboss above it.
Holy shit, the character select is so fucking garbage!!I already set the character I wanted to play as highest priority! Stop giving me other zero priority shit
>ghei talon tries to engage billy and pagie combo up close and personal >feeds 3 times and turns a lane dominance into a shatted lane>foams andd calls me a subhumanWhich one of you fags was it?
>>548344884sorry to hear it.you can wait a bit to requeue to dodge whoever also wants your charater from your lobby.You can set other popular heroes as your other priorities. eg, say you wanted abrams, then you could set billy and haze as your other two lower priorities.
>>548344735>Remember when Infuser was an 800 item?that item was fucking cancerit was not fun playing around your Infuser CD the entire lane and it was a mandatory buy because of how overpowered it was
>>548344735you mean 500? yea
>>548341701I am not good. I am really bad at navigating the map.
>>548341701Maybe I am, but I turned off rank notifications so I don't know my rank
>>548343874rest in piss soul rebirth
>>548341701I play mina
>>548345862>>548344735man if people think infernus is bad now, he used to win lane by pressing infuser and running at you, I shit you not that shit was that broken it did like 400 damage and healed him an insane amount and he could do it every 30 seconds
>>548344884stop playing haze.
>>548346938and it was fun
>>548347276it was atrocious
>>548347367atrociously fun
>>548343697Sometimes I spectate eternus matches and in 99% of them the team that has a 20k soul lead will just roll over the game and win. Seems like winning a team fight at the 20 minute mark will just snowball into winning the game
>>548347276man fuck you nigga I used to do the same thing with pocket tho
>>548340885What is "meta" for Geist right now?
Holy shit, dude basically blocked 2 enemies completely and rendering them useless.
>>548347276i think you should kill yourself
>>548347430>get 3+ kills, call midboss>everyone fucks off to the jungle or continues a bronze5 chase>eternus>get a pick 15 minutes in, midboss is swept up in the next 20 seconds
>>548348191they either need to make mid harder or make it less rewardingI don't care if bronzies can't finish games without it
>>548346907So? She's S tier.
>Rutger turned into Pepper>the fucking unicorn girl gets the rocket launcherNONOOOOONOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>548349308dont worry it wont function like his at all
I love Mahou Shoujo and I've wanted a RL character forever so I'll be a Pepper main. My only fear is that rocket jumping won't exist or will be very weak considering all the movement nerfs.
man i thought new characters would all be ass judging by the first character batch (the one with calico/holiday/etc. not the doorman/billy/etc. one) but both so far seem pretty cool
>>548349440They should make it really good but inflict lots of self damage, like in Quake
>>548349634Calico is literally the only bad hero they added so farLiterally no one likes the niggressTurn her into an egyptian or give her a cat head
>>548349642That's what I'm hoping for as well, feels like it'd be fair enough to let her have it at the cost of health. I would prefer if it's flat damage in that case in a way that makes it suicidal in lane, risky in midgame if entering a fight with it, but strong late but they might make it percentage to allow her to use it constantly but at a similar power level>>548349769Her design is ass but nuking people with a fighting game combo is fun
I love the sheer universal disdain this general has had for Calico lmao.
>>548349993best part is tha tits not even muh racismsince people generally infernus or wraith (as characters not as heroes they need to fight nerf these niggas already yoshi you fuck)but i have seen zero anons defend calicos character designthey like the cat tho
>>548349769i'm not talking about design but kits as wellsinclair's kit is just 4 random abilities, vyper is fun but schizophrenic (also just 4 random abilities), holiday is rather unintuitive and calico imo has the worst kit design in the gamealthough in terms of design, holiday is eh okay, vyper is unfinished, sinclair feels unfinished but is fine and calico is honestly also the worst visual design in the game, but her cat is cute i guesscompared to the last batch it's like night and day, i actually do like every design and the kits are fun (except paige) even if i think they maybe are poorly thought out (drifter and victor specifically, i think billy and doorman are great)
>team significantly down on souls>still trying to fight on midthis game boils down to either trying to have fun by constantly team fighting and so lose, or else afk farming for 30 minutes and then winning the game with one team fight. I seriously think this game is bound to fail in its current state.
>>548350396>>548349769Holiday is probably the best of the original bunch desu.Generic sheriff lady. Sure. Cool.But awesome fun kit.
help me understand why infernus gets to have 4k health, is impossible to itemize against, hes no weak part of the game, scales harder than anyone, and also takes 0 fucking skill to play and yet he is consistently among the most broken characters on every patch
>>548350632yeah but i hate her crackshot and the fact that you have to punch your barrels while jumping specifically or you are basically throwing the game and this is never said PROPERLY anywhere in-game
is it just me or do wraith and sinclair feel kind of medicore when it comes to the rest of the castlike most of wraiths abilities are just items you could buy and sinclair looks and feels very plain
>>548350623I hate fighting the death ball, but fuck is it boring playing Victor when I just have to spend the first half of the game farming after lane. I've been playing Paradox and having a lot more fun getting to run in and help and then getting out.
>>548350868Wraith is pretty good this patch, she just requires farm and is weak for lane but once she gets stuff like Surge of Power and whatnot she just shreds people. She's one of the best carries right now
>>548350396The poison parts of Vyper's kit makes sense, but the ult turning people to stone is genuinely one of the weirdest abilities from a lore sense, it's up there with Warden throwing flasks and Holliday having jump pads when she's a cowboy.
>>548350868Sinclair just needs the two people in one body gimmick to fully be realized
>>548351051It's snake > Medusa > turning into stone no? Makes sense to me in that regard
>>548350983i mean her design, i'm aware she's good in game. i would just like heroes to have more unique abilities than just be glorified items you can already buy
Vyper is supposed to be a gorgon
>>548351051i mean 4 random abilities more in the sense that the abilities don't have a lot of synergy with each other inherentlywhich is why sinclair's summon and vyper's venom randomly have synergy with other abilities tacked onand yeah at that point they do have synergy but you get what i mean it's like forced by ability mechanics instead of naturally synergistic (like bepop hook + bomb/uppercut or lash jump into stomp)
>>548351450Ah, yeah I guess that makes more sense.
The only bad Vyper ability is her 1Also Holliday has one of the most coherent kita in the game. Her passive is the only thing that could have been anything else
Crackshot should have an extra effect where if Holiday shoots the exact target on a barrel it explodes better
>>548351862"it explodes better" is such a funny thing to say
Whats the point of bullet resist when one of the most popular gun carries has a passive that invalidates it? And the other popular one has a passive that does spirit damage instead
used chatgpt to slop up a user script to hide twitch streamers by name https://pastebin.com/UQWnfD0D
Why do people like Warden again? I've only played 2 games with him, but both times he's felt weak as hell. Range on his flask is piddly, Shield is gone in a second, Cage does nothing except sometimes scare people away, and Ult lasts about as long as you in bed.
>>548351717yeah i don't really care about her 1 either0 damage, mystic burst basically isn't even worth the 800 souls, 0 slow even if you get 3+ stacks, bunch of execution without a payoffmeanwhile shiv does half your HP with one knife and a bunch of green items or something. So he does indeed have something on her I guess
>>548353148try head shots
These people are fucking animals, every teammate besides me and 1 other down a full tier 4 on the worst performing enemy, and they're STILL running it down lane. After the game I see the average skill rating was 3 levels HIGHER than mine.
>>548353148shield is used for movement speed, you're basically like victor except instead of spreading AIDS via aura you gun them down. buy qsr > fleetfoot > hollow point > greens > spellslinger > merc magnum
>>548353148I used to like the root echo shard build to put people in gay retard jail
>>548353148your build was shit, warden is one of the strongest characters in the game atm
>guy complains loudly on coms when i rotate to (successfully) gank from our lane>two games in a rowwhat kind of fags am I queuing with
>>548340831I loved this game from the second I saw Ivy it
Can these leak cucks just fucking screenshot the damn playtest already
>>548355836>the first deadlock content I was ai sloppa ivy with a fat ass buttCrazy
>>548355915>Leak everything>Nothing left to farm attention>Life loses meaningThat's the mindset they have.
>>548353148he runs fast and doesn't afraid of anything
>>548353148if you want to build for cage you need greater expansion with slowing hex, otherwise enemies will just dodge out of it. its also better in team fights when enemies have over extended on your team. its not as good as seven's stun you can just put on any player, but you can certainly make use of it. in lane you need to combo into itbarrier is mostly for the run speed on top of running items like fleet foot or majestic leap. it scales with spirit when it's upgraded so if you build a ton of spirit you can get a 1k shieldflask in lane with mythic burst and extra spirit isn't half bad, the benefit is you get it back pretty fast especially with cd reduction. flask every 4 seconds adds up to a lot of damage over the course of a match especially if you buy tankbuster and use it to proc magnumult is useful to scare away teams in team fights, if you buy escalating exposure it does a ton of team damage. it's kind of like a shitty version of victor's aura that you use to drain enemy health while you chase them down with your gun
if they ever cuck maj leap my interest in this game dies
>>548356737they already have
just watched hereditary for the first time bros
>>548356737The recast should 100% be reworked. Allowing you to cross the entire map like it does is just retarded.
>>54835673770k lead games 90% of the time hasn't already?
i've been playing this game for a year now and i still don't know how to queue the shop to buy an item when you reach a shop
>>548357094is that the one where the lil nigga get her head cut off
>Smartest Billy playerI feel bad for the enemy team, this retard had literally no awareness of anything at all. Why is it ALWAYS Billy players that play like complete retards?
>>548357637because billy is so powerful retards can get away with almost anything
this fucking playerbase is so miserable now, I have played like 8 games today and not a single one had a team that seemed like they were having fun or liked anyone
RELEASE ME
Inhouse 1/12 K9WT2K9WT2K9WT2K9WT2
>>548357376right click itpretty useful when youre running past secret shop cause I ambush people all the time there as drifter
>>548357635Yea. Gonna make a /tv/ post about it in a second
>>548358069It's a soul-crushing game, even more than mobas usually are. I try to start every match with a "glhf!" and banter with everyone, but by the end, win or lose, I'm just left wondering "why did I subject myself to that?" You either afk farm for 30 minutes and become so strong no one can hope to oppose you, or your team doesn't farm and there's nothing you can do. Playing this game makes me feel completely empty.
>>548358180who would even want this snoozefest character
>>5483584285/12, get your fill. now.
We got a filter for the Doorman poster?
>>548350396Sinclair's 1 and 2 go well together. They're literally no different from grapple/ground slam, etc.Bunny fits the hero.The ult steal is random, but who cares? You don't even play him.
>>5483584288/12
>>548358874ME AND THEY WILL GIVE HIM AN AXE'S CALL FORCING YOU TO ATTACK HIM DURING ULT
>>548348531does he know?
Is 41% winrate after 220 games horrible and bad?? I'm so worried about this. I just wanna be good at something again and I don't know if this is gonna be it.
>>548361030focus on identifying what you are failing at and improve without stressing about it. getting mopey makes you improve slower.
>>548361030well, it's not good! maybe try some sweatlord aim training shit for a few then comehack and become a haze one trick.also work on your macro. the amount of shitters who afk farm jungle only to get get ganked while massive creep waves take their walkers unassisted is insane
Is inhouse poster ever gonna ack himself? When will he give up?
>>548361030leaving a jungle camp partially complete to clear a wave heading for your guardian/walker nets more souls than the camp, and you can always go back to it.
>>548361030>Is a sub 50% winrate goodWhat do you think, dumb ass?Get better or pick a different game. Simple as.
>>548361147>>548361712my winrate on my 4 most played heroes are all over 50% so I won't get down on myself and I'll keep playing and improving!
>Deathy's recommended build website is updated, now you can vote for or against any given build>All of Metro's builds are overwhelmingly downvotedTo be expected, but funny anyway. There's also some other interesting things like Piggy's builds having a lot of downvotes (i did always thing they were kind of shit, glad to see i'm not the only one), and Deathy's builds also not being very popular
What's the deathy website?
>>548341701I'm just not good enough. I'm permastuck Ascendant and i honestly deserve to be, Eternus players are on another level. I just don't care enough to learn all the movement tech, i'm 30 so my aim is just not as good as it used to be, they're just playing a different game and honestly that's fine, i'm higher rank than i thought i'd be. I think my main deficiency as a player is that i'm pretty bad at laning overall.
>inhouse>with spergs, troons, and autists from /vg/>tierlist of playerslol no
>>548361030sub 50% winrate just means the matchmaking has put you in a rank that is too highthe game is designed to have you at a 50% winrate regardless of how good you are
>>548362882https://deadlockmeta.com/
Why are Valve being such hella weirdos about api access when Dota has unlimited api access with thousands of more games being played every day?
>won 5 games in a row as support ivyyep time to turn the game off I can feel a menacing aura approach
>>548363021>Haze in Blol
>>548363294Somehow also entirely glossed over Sinclair somehow in S
>>548363380Sinclair is very good, even if nobody plays him and fewer play him well. Bolt is one of the most damaging spells in the game, bunny echo shard single-handedly wins teamfights, and he has the enemy team's best ult on a 60% faster CD. Not to mention how he's a lot more difficult to catch now that he can swap twice with his clone
>>548363021>Lash has a second build on him now>First item is qsrOh well. Back to the same old shit.
>>548362890>i'm 30 so my aim is just not as good as it used to beiddqd is 33surefour is 31seagull is 33dafran is 31I say this not to make fun of you but to let you know age doesn't really have much to do with it. Practice does. Play the game a bunch = you get better if you try to get better.
>>548348303>they either need to make mid harder or make it less rewardingthis existed when you just claimed mid for your entire team and it gave them reduced spawn times back at their own base. you could actually make plays happen with even just 2 people, steal mid and give your team at least a DECENT shot at recovery. now you're just gonna suicide into mid. so you don't and the enemy gets 4 fucking AEGIS and just end. are we shocked, really?
>>548363886Sure, and Fallen is going to be 35 soon. But they have always been extremely good, even in my prime monster-chugging teenage years i wasn't as good as they are. But yeah i do understand what you mean, could definetly practice. Don't know if i care enough to do so though
>>548363021>Yamato in A(Strong Pick) with a 45% w/r for this patch
It is kinda crazy how the shift from spirit to gun meta has left Victor in the dumpster.I told them they made him too spirit reliant.
>>548364205I think it's more so that not only he's spirit-reliant, but he's also just bad against heavy gun comps. Another character who is really suffering right now is Seven, even though hybrid builds have become better this patch he's still just so bad. I don't know why they only buffed his balls. He deals half of Infernus' damage while having 1/3rd of the survivability. Man is just a creep for the enemy team to farm
>>548364484>He deals half of Infernus' damage while having 1/3rd of the survivabilitythe actual issue is that infernus has that much survivability to begin with.
>>548364484Yeah, playing as victor feels so bad right now because the enemy m1 gets to rek your shit to 1/3rd your health before you can get into aura and pain battery range. Even armor against it feels terrible.
>>548364739>double doorman ulted That's how you know your hero is in S tier
>>548341574yeah i need to impregnate her
Average Deadlock game
if multiple people buy healbane does the effect stack on the target or is it just all considered one instance of healbane just each person refreshes it
>>548361030people are being hard on you but starting now must be absolutely brutal, even the worst players have been playing this game for a while so the barrier to entry is really high, just remember youre playing deadlock because you like it and its fun and youll be fine
>>548363021>Doorman 4th best>Mirage S tier>Mina that low>Ivy that low>Dynamo that low>Drifter that high>Haze that lowthis guy is a retard, through and through
>>548361030>Is 41% winrate after 220 games horrible and badI had a 70% winrate at 200 something games but I did come from League.it's pretty shit but if it's your first moba I can't really fault you.look up some guides on macro.
>>548366519Extremely pisslow post, unironically
>>548364131I think yams placement is hard carried by ABL
>>548366002Healbane doesn't stack iirc. I think it used to though
>>548361030You joined at a time there are no new players wait till the new patch. Also this game sucks so I wouldnt worry about it
>>548366740>t. has never sniffed the asscheek of Eternus
>>548366519its not ordered(but doorman is still top of S for sure)
>>548364739Lol
>>548362890>>548364068a boomer who aim trains for 15 minutes a day will beat a zoomer who does not train... that's the facts for you, chief.
>>548363886another one for the list, wander just turned 30, married with 2 kids and the motherfucker plays only gun builds, is consistently ranked top 5
>>548363021Is this specifically for competitive tournament play or just typical ranked play?
>>548341701I would be e6 right now but now it's top 100 instead of 200 after the change.
>>548367740Just general play i believe, but at the same time the guy making the tier list only plays in Eternus lobbies so it does skew a bit towards competitive
why is nigfernus allowed to be incredibly good gun hero and even if your aim is shit, an incredibly good spirit hero? they need to nerf this character into the ground, i'm tired of players thinking they're good because they can just press 2
does curse knock vindicta out of the air
how many times do i need to get completely braindead drooling retard teammates before i can start blaming match making
>>548370050Just look at him. the simplest hero in the game. shoot. use abilities, if they hit good. if not oh well.how to build him? well, his items are very obvious. So no worries.has most things baked into his kit. speed, slow res, amp, shred, enemy damage reduction, lifesteal, stun.It cant be by accident, that he is the most braindead, no thoughts, hero. not the strongest, but the one who has to think the least. no counterplay or punishments for misuse of his kit. just point and click, and it'll turn out. and you'll even do split damage.It's just too much to not be intentional. he is meant to be the braindead default noob friendly character. They'll never make him more complex. and going by the patch (direct buffs, indirect buffs (toxic bullet duration, so ferrn only needs basic duration item)). they still think he needs a leg up.I don't agree with their apparent position any more than you do.
>>548341701>actual reasonI'm not an eternus player. I'm not good enough at video games to be one of those top tier diamond players. I'm hardstuck at ascendant 6 because that's where I belong honestly. >cope reasonI do only play duo queue with a friend and it is fucking near impossible to rank up or down in duo queue unless you go on a wild loss streak and even then it's only on the really bad ones like 10+ losses.
>>548370682depends on your rank I guess
>>548370931alchemist 6but statlocker says i perform as phantom 3
>>548341701A. I'm not that goodB. I need to move because I have awful network issues in a lot of my games.It's primarily A, B probably holds me back like rank category, if that. It's mostly just frustrating.
Τhe black wοman οf Valve unοriginality.Τhese are ΤWΟ different characters.
>>548371073I recommend you stop looking at statlocker so you dont become delusional, alchemist isnt even top 50% so you absolutely need to be able to solo carry retards
Why has Valve not released this yet, I don’t get it
when people aren't looking, I do the solo tower doorman exploit
>>548342950Dude I had to play with a friend of a friend who just started and it was fucking torturous. I was playing melee bebop and I constantly 1v6'd the enemy team by just holding Q. I think half of them legit had their parry key unbound.
>>548371404>parry key unboundim in oracle and I still don't parry that often unless I hear someone charge a heavy
>>548371073Statlocker is just a bunch of random assumptions based on very little data, they don't have API acess
>>548371558I don't think you understand, I was in their base with no waves pushed just holding Q at them and killed four of them before dying.
>>548371073statlocker can be nice copium, but in the end it's completely arbitrary what it thinks rank performance is. It has no way to track shit like effective item usage, meaningful CC, saving your teammates, or if your stats are the result of smart play or the enemy team's lack of macro. A lot of the time it'll tell me I performed at some mid-Ascendant level. I've seen matches of 12 people playing at Ascendant level, my stats against ritualists might match their stats, but I sure as fuck can't hang when the opponents are actually dodging and fighting back at the same level.You absolutely can blame matchmaking though, it's undeniably shit, and statlocker IS nice to see when the matchmaker just decides to fuck you over by putting 4 solos and a duo that average Alch 2 against a 6 stack with 2 oracles in it.
>>548371320 If valve had thier way we still wouldnt even know about the game, i think.I was just looking at neon prime tutorial vidoes.It's so wietrd how little has changed. entire character kits and systems unchanged. most of the changes are visual and map changes. the pace is glacial. makes me think. no wonder x character is still conceptually fucked, its still just a reskin from neon prime. any effort to balance, that is more than a slight number tweak isnt worth the time. whatever thier priiorities are, i think the game would still be secret if they could help it. it being revealed hasnt changed thier schedule it seems. The game's never going to be officially 'released' while there are bleeding holes here and there, and those holes arent going to be filled until thier proper time in valves glacial schedule.
>>548341701I only solo queue and like trying different heroes some times
>>548371401>I do the solo tower doorman exploitqrd?
>>548372708theres an exploit where doorman can shoot the tower without it hitting back using a door, its very homosexual which is why its unsurprising a doorman player would do it
>>548370682Everyone agrees the matchmaking is dogshit.
>>548372918is there video proof of this?if you're able to shoot the tower you'd be targeted.
>>548373258yeah but I dont have it, the less people that know or use it the better
I will never understand the appeal of playing mo and krill. you either play some passive damage dealing build like a low risk low reward victor or you play as an ultbot waiting for your team to get kills for you, then run away for 60s until your ult is back up. there is no way that is fun. you are essentially just waiting for someone else to play the game for you, like a support character but only useful when your ult is up
>>548373258its not hard to do. theres no special place. give it a try, you'll figure it out within 30 seconds. its pretty obvious how to do it. duck in and out. in shoot, out. the guardian takes a second to aim. you take advantage of that. it cant see through door.
>>548373332>yeah but I dont have itare you sure you're thinking about the right thing?Doorman players have always been shimmying between the door to shoot guardian and then shimmying out before targeting can fully lock.
>>548373402It's fun to ruin someone elses game. And youre wrong he can build good damage for solo pick offs
>>548373402>you just kill people and then go off and do something else afterwards Yeah. That's the game.
>>548373436that little old thing? the doorman shimmy?I just assumed be was talking about an actual less annoying way to do it given he was saying "when no one is looking" at that point you can just shoot the guardian normally.
>>548373332if it's what i think it is >>548373436It's certainly known about by the devs. most people instinctively try it. It's one of the first thing's i tried when i tried each character in sandpit. its just a low priority in the to-do list.
>>548373589>>you just kill people and then go off and do something else afterwardsno, thats the game for every other character. for mo and krill its >you ult and hope a teammate is around to kill them for youthats the part I don't understand. I thought I made that painfully clear in my post, or is your reading comprehension lacking?
>>548342987>someone mentioned wanting ror2 huntress or somethingcan they add ror2 drifter so i can pick up our guardian and throw it at people
>>548373771>and hopedo you retards just hold W at red and just pray?look at your mini map and communicate, you drooling fucking animal.God, Mo players are subhumans.
>>548373771Most characters don't run around by themselves thinking they'll win every fight. It's a team game. Mo and Krill represents a really solid CC kit that is effective without a lot of investment. His ult might be kind of unengaging to execute, but having a relatively low skill - high impact character is nice for a lot of people to pick. If you have souls he is plenty dangerous, he just doesn't need them to be effective.
>>548341701i'm only about 60 matches in and still learning macro
>>548373863I want loader so I have someone to replace lash.
>>548373910I am literally talking shit about mo and krill players and you think I'm one of them. you are genuinely so stupid I'm thinking of apologizing to mo players so as to not be associated with you
>>548374210retard
even though I always make fun of how braindead mo and krill are they are still some of my favorite team mates, usually chill, communicate, and not stupid
whens next patch? already tired of gun
Feels like Mirage needs a rework, his kit just feels so unsatisfying with nothing too eye catching.
>>548374482just play the better version of him, called mina
Enough about which heroes you hate laning against. Which heroes do (You) enjoy laning with?
>>548374146no hook (unless you want to delete bop? good trade. think about it yoshi.) but it'd be cool if lash's grapple worked like loaders on environment and large enemies. orbiting around. >>548374880 trying to discount anyone who just has an easy lane, and instead focus on my enjoyment besides that.-victor seems to go well for me (statlocker correlates. says 71% lane 'wins' out of 24 matches.)-abrams seems to go swell.-Wraith-warden-billy. recently its obvious, but even before that i like to look out for a parry followup.-drifter.
>>548363021>Vindicta S rankWhat the fuck happened with Vindicta this last patch? she went from being considered one of the worst characters in the game to one of the best with absolutely no changes to her at all.
>>548375737Same as most characters, the 4.8k investment power spike is completely retarded. If you play Vindicta, save points so you can instantly get tier 2 ult as soon as possible, and rush 4.8k spirit investment. Congratulations, you can now 2 shot almost anyone with your ult 10 minutes into the game
>>548375737benefits more than others might, from the deathball meta. idk how impactful the recent path to address that was. split changes, and touching trophy. you might be able to filter by patch.
>>548375737>she got buffed a patch ago>investment changes heavily benefit her>soul sharing changes heavily benefit her
>>548375737She benefits hugely from the 4.8k, having a spirit scaling bullet damage ability
>400+ damage from Vind snipe at like minute 10remove this fucking ability from the game, holy shit.I don't even fucking care, buff her fly, crow shredfucking ANYTHING other than this degenerate ability.

>>548376026>aislopmoron
>>548376126why does the groomer pedo discord go out if its way to bypass filters
>>548374880I play Vyper the most, so I feel like I have it pretty easy in that I can just change my playstyle to work with most in lane. Paige/MnK let me slide into people's shins and win trades/convert someone's health from 50 to 0 really easily, GT/Vindicta can poke them down to where I can just rush out from the side and murder, Dynamo/McGinnis can keep me healthy, etc etcI think Viktor is someone that doesn't fit as well but I like to lane with because it tends to be a pretty passive experience, where I just hang back and poke with knives and we tend to slowly whittle things down until ults unlock.Only people I don't like to lane with are Ivy/Haze
>>548375380If I could replace flog with loaders punch and his grapple worked like hers I would fucking starve myself from playing this game too much. Like this shit already gets me hard even when it only happens once every ten games. >https://youtube.com/watch?v=B5FNT0N0_4k&t=740s
>>548376358>pedodo you know where you are?
>>548376008Why when GT does 400+ damage in lane it's flirting but when Vindicta does it's sexual harassment?
>>548376371I fucking hate playing against ivy as vyper. she makes ground aids, you cant kill her with venom, she's often just drags your target away with her ult and prevents them dying to venom.Meanwhile she hard counters Lady Geist on a level I dont think any other hero counters another.
>>548376681erm... because gt ability is basic... and also has no health condition for full damage... wait...
>>548376681because GT bird has very long wind up and isn't charged, you retarded reddit brained tourist.
>Pepper still hasnt been leakedCome onI need to see the meltdowns
>>548376524love to watch the lash work. I think Lash is well made in that. If my team is being repeatedly styled on by a lash, then I can't hold it against the character at all.>>548376780and he has to charge- wait.... yeah well vindicta can fly- wait. yeah but he only has 4 stamina- damn.

>>548377045>comparing a hitscan ult nuke that gives bonus souls to an ability which in no universe is hitting for 400 at 10 minutesgiving the benefit of the doubt to retards might be too much here.Vind downplayers are scum.
>>548376770I don't mind laning against Ivy too much, though I'm at a lower skill level so this probably doesn't work as well against better people, but venom > bola before they stone form usually works since most will tend to try to wait for the venom to almost pop before invuln-ing it, especially since they've probably been conditioned to a few times by the time you get ult. Kinda the same shit with Geist, just bola that bitch and walk away so she can't ult her way out of it.I'm not sure I've ever laned with a Geist for some reason though, not really sure how she'd be as a lane partner for Vyper.
>>548377024I love lash so much. The only reason I've ever considered playing this genre. That video is quickly becoming my play book and Bible. That perfect cardio and form for that mina kill. Every time he kills Warden. Juking the dynamo during mid game so hard with warp stone. Every single second of his movement.
>>548376681 as more people reply, your post is paying dividends in my entertainment.>>548377379when lash roof slammed the hybrid camp and finished them off with 1 flog, i was shocked that i'd never realised that aspect of lash's map knowledge ceiling. knowing spots for slams yes, but i didnt think about the neutrals. the tempo.
this thread needs mandatory rank numbers attached to it to be not dogshit
>>548377638He's the only character that makes farming fun because to do it efficiently it's not enough to use movement to get around faster. You have to use movement to deal damage to farm faster. I haven't had this much fun with a character in a while but he fits the same mold as the rest of them. He's doom fist. He's spiderman. He's blight. He's loader. Etc.
>>548376838sry pal her actual model isnt getting leaked, it's on the super sekrit second private server that totally exists i swear
Amazing how one patch can kill game feel this badly. Make specific picks this good in a game without draft pick holy hell. I love knowing that I have a 80% chance of losing from the outset.

Wish you could have rite alongside nova or beam, they are different tools with different applications.Also, nova is a super underrated item to rush in-lane, even if it doesn't scale very well.
>be me>matches have been going better lately>not a big winstreak or anything but overall more wins than losses, and the losses at least feel educational>often end up with second highest stats on team on winsdamn this makes it hard to tell if i'm actually getting better or just getting carried
I'm pretty sure they are using a hidden MMR to match me with others.There's no way last month when I'm in Archon matches, everybody is more chill and now I'm getting thrown into Ritualist game, but the players are all aggressive as fuck, and also deny / parry a lot, like they are playing more serious & better than Archon players from a month ago

>>548388605I've done this. Its not that bad. Plus, the matchmaker won't drag oracle+ players into your games, since it can try to pair parties up against solo queue players of higher rank, apparently. Plus, if my friends and I get frustrated, I can just max prio pick one of my mains and probably just shit stomp to a win if I wanted to. Really, though, I use it to experiment with heroes that I only have a couple of games on my main before I settled on a handful of characters to seriously grind.
>>548386114>That's pseudo science and personalities are not fixed, they can change. People are usually lazy and retarded, there's also a bias of doing what works.Just because personalities change doesn't mean that MBTI shit doesn't have some merit behind it. It should be logical that, for example, if I'm current day ISTJ, if I worked on myself that I could switch to ESTJ (that means I worked on my part thats introvert and switched to be extrovert). At least this personality system (which was developed based on the book by Gustav Jung, a pioneer in modern psychology) has some basis in more grounded things compared to astrology and actual real pseudoscience. The shittiest part has always been people and their need for rigidity who just wait for a chance to box themselves into an ''identity'' without possibility of change of evolving, and unfortunately great majority of population is like that.

>>548391779Yea still its not even close rn, she has charges so its basically no cd same as shiv but even better because you can miss once and her squish is offset by standing 50m back
>>548391327It isn't though. Whereas before plenty of matches were only mild leads on either side now they're complete stomps more often than not.>>548391484I'll remind you that Venator ult is 3 executes, the threshold scaling off of his gun damage.

weapon shielding needs to be tweakedSpirit and CC shielding works fine because they active as you end up in the burst combo, or after it so you can run without being finished off. But early game gun damage is 99% poke and doesn't trigger the shielding in any manner that matters. It should imo give you a gun only, non regenerating, barrier at all times that goes on a long cd when broken. Basically a shield against gun poke.
>>548392207step 1: replace Yoshi

>>548392339NTA anon but what's wrong with using mbti on 4chan, to describe characters, for fun? also there's more to mbti than the main 4 letters you usually see, or whether you're extroverted or not. The real meat and potatoes of it is in the functions. People simplify things to be able to talk about them like a normal human being, or because they can't be bothered to look more into it
>>548392439Yeah you can't even get souls from the bridge if you're by tower. Getting towercucked is so much more punishing now. I genuinely have no idea what they're thinking making the range so punishing, that you can't get souls like a jump dash away.
>>548391193mobas are a war of attrition, which is a carry-over from old RTSs, so snowballing is the entire point of the game, and the devs insist on this even though it doesn't make for fair or fun, or interactive gameplay. This patch made the problem worse by making it so that you have to fight in order to even farm, and if one side has a greater advantage, well, the other side won't be able to even farm, resulting in a stomp
Imagine ruining the entire game just to stop Geist/Ivy/Greytalon long range farm.

hihi I'm trans (MtF) what champion should I play? :O t. new to the game hehe
>>548394527Im both actually
>>548394165even in a completely unFUN stomp, where there's no chance of winning or having FUN, the game will last at least 15 to 20 minutes. Why exactly would it be good game design to make it so that there is nothing else to do but lose the entire time? is that OK just because both teams start even? which by the way is not the case when you take into account the fact that different heroes and comps have different win rates, humans are not machines>>548394220that's the gayest sentence I've heard all week in more than one way, and it doesn't matter what you're uncle might have done to you as a kid, trying to gain back control forcibly will never fix or erase what they did to you because coping mechanism are all useless, just look at Drake Bell. Maturity is the answer

>>548394640Sounds like Mario kart is more up your alley
>>548394978not even that anon but why exactly do people have to define fun in a way that you find acceptable? what do you even play games for? spiritual ascendance?Anon, you don't win arguments by trying to control the conversation, that's just chinese politics. Trying to control the conversation and what people can even say, or what counts as valid, implies you can't or don't know how to argue if people can freely express themselves. That's weak as hell

why isnt there a t4 version of debuff remover? why do i have to keep this t3 green item the entire game because its effect is mandatory?
>>548394062>Whats the point of spirit characters in this game lol.using spells>melee punching
>>548395395You dont know what an argument is, it starts with accepted definitions from both sides, literally conceding bef9re engaging >>548395302I will accept any definition but 99% its so vague "shit I like" bs that means nothing
>>548395454>he wastes his life praying to the spaghetti monster in the sky
the real issue is there is 3 catagories of gamers>the early gamer: brools out but pushes, wants to end game 10-20 mins, hates late game and 30+ mins>the mid gamer: brools out, understands itemization and wants kills but understands to end the game in 20-30 minutes>the late gamer: HATES BROOLING, HATES PUSHING, HATES OBJECTIVES, HATES ANY INTERACTION, HATES JUST ABOUT EVERYONE. Seven and Mina players
>>548395516tell that to anyone thinking about buying disarming hex in the gun meta patch
>>548395302The irony of this post calling Chinese politics when sidestepping definitions to hoodwink people IS Chinese politics
>>548395763i cant parse your reply, are you agreeing or disagreeing with me?
>>548395516There is, it's the Guardian Shield thingie... It also acts as a debuff remover.
>>548395836true yet its still green erstwhilegive me an orange version that gives me 100% weapon damage for every debuff i knock off
>>548395516why do you need all 6400 items? are you autistic? that isn't how these games usually work
>>548395594buddy, you're a control freak, I don't owe anything to you and I don't have to explain what fun is in order to talk about deadlock being unbalanced, which is a fact. And I couldn't care less if you subjectively find that valid or not.I mean, Jesus Christ, Imagine showing up to a fight, complaining and yelling that the guy hits too hard, banning right hooks, tying the guy's arms behind his back, declaring that whoever lands a punch wins and then lifting your fist in the air like you won the world champion title.
>>548395826it counters gun build, it doesn't have a T4 upgrade. We are currently in a gun meta
>>548395516dumbass
>>548340885How worthwhile is Frenzy?
>>548396107Holy cope i already accepted your concession you dont have to double down on itDeadlock is objectively more balanced than most games(winrate spreads). Its objectively fair(starts even)The only subjectivity here is you finding something "unfun" well guess what? I find it "fun" so it cancels out. Genuinely take a class on logic or debate because YOU are the control freak trying to bend the convo to some imagined standard whilst refusing to communicate
>>548395516the same reason every gun build has to be slot taxed for fleetfoot.
>>548396289
>Power Surge Seven doesn't get his 4800 gun thresholdI don't understand some people, and I see this often enough that I think patch notes are being missed and need to be more prominent
>>548396469starting a match as Ivy and Billy agaisnt Mina and Infernus/haze is objectively uneven unless you're the one exploiting the meta to gain ranks. And if it was more balanced than most games then it wouldn't need constant patches changing most characters followed by multiple hotfixes. You would also see more characters being picked rather than the same ones every match. And here's the word fun just to make you seethe
>>548396771The calicos seem to refuse to build hybridIts either all gun or all spirit and both sides claim the other 4800 is a waste, legitimately mind boggling
>>548396806Thats a valid point and will be addressed when they add draftIts also a quality present amongst every hero based game with no draft. Patch note frequency has little correlation to balance beyond alphas being generally less polished than matured games. Pick rate is actually not terrible all things considered, dns has maybe 3-5 no pick no ban weekly whilst league for example has something insane like 100 of the 175
Deadlock has the potential to be a genre-redefining game but the developers need to make its game design more honest and less dishonest. The game will still be popular but it won't be "the" next big game if they keep making dishonest decisions.
My gun investment comes from cultist once that’s over its over.

>>548397356Buzzwords buzzwords buzzwords. Buzzwords buzzwords. Buzzwords.
>>548395506i played with a friend who was initiate and the match dragged on for so long i somehow managed to get over 30 kills we lost
>>548397356>honest, dishonestvague and into the trash
>>548397369Cultist has been cut from the zeitgeist bro, try to keep up
>>548395516i think it would be funny if you could upgrade to a version of debuff remover that would "reflect" the debuff back onto the player who applied it
>>548396771some people just pick a random build and buy it without any thought i played against a seven who could only get kills off his ult and for some reason he bought crippling headshotif you're going to be an ult bot at least be intentional about it
>>548396289Debuff remover should build into unstoppable 2bh, they might have to nerf it a little but it just makes sense and maybe someone would actually buy it
>>548397356making the game honest will take out all the things that make the game interesting and fun
>>548397651>be ult bot>but they use ult only once throughout the 25 minutes of playing a matchthese are the type of people youre asking to grow a brain cell. they wont.
>>548392339You know psychology is called soft science for a reason, right?>Also be coherent for once in your life, you can't have both fixed personalities and fluid personalities, pick one.What's so hard for you to grasp about it, personality can either change or remain fixed depending on circumstances, sometimes it's conscious and sometimes its subconscious.One does not immediately cancel other out.
>>548397736True but also a dishonest game wouldnt be very interesting or fun either. It should be both an honest and a dishonest game, holistic if you will
>>548397729It'd be ridiculously broken since it'd effectively make unstoppable a 3200 item instead of a 6400 one. May as well rework all the CC in the game.
>Still no pepper leakI'm swear these faggots are insufferable.
>>548397356honestly based takethey should make the map a perfectly flat and open square, cover and breaking line of sight is a little dishonestthey should also probably remove all abilities, as they can all be a little dishonest in certain situations
>>548397506w-what happened...?
>drifter is 9/0 by 8 minutes>nobody buys anything to counter him>nobody does anything to stop him>he proceeds to end game 21/5 only because i chain-stomped him as dynamo or ulted himSTOPFEEDING
should they keep the literal item names or do shit like renaming debuff remover to "lantern of maksdha"
nevermind, i take it back. poeple are just posting self inserts on community hero ideas is just as bad as rework on existing heroes spam
>>548397973this is either someone trying to bait the 50 year old boomer into a cholesterol-fueled rage over words instead of losing weight, or the boomer itself still mad about the use of the word fun (which he doesn't personally like)
>>548398087she was scrapped
>>548397973the matchmaking needs to do a better job of picking teams if we are never going to get a draft system. there are just some lane combos or hero combos that are incredibly hard to deal with, especially if the players are competent
>>548398224which ones?
>>548398202i swear to god this game needs to start recommending items to counter buy when it notices you die to a well fed player or the same player multiple timesbut i know full well most players would probably ignore it. you could flash massive text on the screen telling people to not do something and they'll do it anyway
>>548398223it already feels like they're all advertisements for products because of the presentation, i'd rather have the literal names
>>548398391most believable leak, honestly
>>548398339This nigga had to look up holistic lol
>>548398608I'm not even interested enough to bother
>>548398223it doesn't make sense for items to be some powerful relic and have everyone in the game able to just buy infinite copies of it.also items just telling you what they fucking do in the name is way better.
>>548395516>pocket keeps giving me aids>buy divine barrierEz
>>548398707You should work on that, having the vocabulary of an 11year isnt a good look
model leak for werewolf girl when?
>>548399069only leak here is your ass when im finished with it
>>548398223The items are mass produced stuff and you can see ads for them all around town. You can simply go to a store and buy a Fairfax™ Glass Cannon and a Cheat Death.
>>548399015look at the posts above, including your own
>>548399069The best werewolf story is Ginger Snaps.
Nuclear take: The CDR items are the laziest items in the game, there is literally no reason to not ever pick transcendent cooldown in a match. They should either be reworked or removed.
i just got top damage for the first time in my 600 games of deadlock
>>548399653I agree that Transcendent is basically the most op but boring item in the game and everyone should buy it but I think what's missing is mana and we aren't ready for that conversation yet
>>548399653>lash can run around with a 75s cd ultimate>dynamo still stuck with a 200s cd ultimate even with transcendentsome heroes should get the "basher" treatment from Dota1 and have specific heroes not able to buy certain items. but they prefer to balance all items since items are created like characters in mind
>>548399653most items are lazy and uninspired as all hell, I know stats are there for a reason but it doesn't make it any better. At least it's not like league where there's only like 3.5 active items in the entire game and all the others have 3.5 paragraphs of passives that barely do anything
>>548399885I don't want to agree with you but with how the game is right now I feel like I have to.
>>548399653I think in general that items like cd and duration / aoe shouldnt even affect item effects in first placeIt makes the balancing a nightmareImagine if you could extend hex duration in dota by 30+% It would be insanity
Imagine solo ulting mcginnis with both dynamo and Paige ults not once but twice. Also probably the only time one of this "let’s have lower ranks get carried" MM has ever worked out for me.>>548399931It's actually disgusting how low CD some ults are.
>>548399653this but firerate
>>548399931Idk what you meant to imply but trans is literally best on dynamo because its % based and his ult cd is the longest
i like dynamo
>>548400092dynamo and seven use to be able to bring their own ults down to 100s or something. cd reduction has been nerfed over and over, but i think the ones at fault are regular abilities
I tuned out of discussin when that furry sleeping shit was revealed. So was it real after all? And what about the Overwatch rejects like that fencer guy or the necromancer loli?
>Why the fuck does this Drifter hit so hard?
>>548400414Because you died 7 times in lane, Jennifer. Now go pay the mandatory Disarm tax.
>>548400256Cdr fundamentally is op because abilities are really what change the game state. E.g. Im losing a fight until I use X ability and cdr enables that ability to be casted faster and more often
>>548400414forgot image
>>548400585>10 minutes
>>548400373Rem is real. Fencer is real, wearing fencing gear and looking like a rich cunt. Necromancer is called Graves and is wearing some kind of private school/college uniform, isn't a loli. Ignore the AI gen "leak" of how she looks its ass. If you hated those you'll hate Pepper, unicorn girl, princess outfit. Silvers (werewolf girl) apparently wears a flannel shirt.
>>548400696>isn't a loli
>>548400696>isn't a lolibut my penis wants it to beif it was a shota my penis would be lodged firmly in the roof
>>548400696>familiar is real>schoolgirl>unicorn girl>werewolf girlWell, shit. The game's tone is fucking dead I guess, didn't even need community hats for it.
>>548400879been living under a rock?I think he looks neat
>>548400879Silvers is apparently a bounty hunter looking woman, chill. Why does werewolf girl mean the end times people have been asking for a werewolf forever. The only on I really have an issue with is Pepper.

>yamato players irlthis explains the nerfs over the years
>>548401442>Silvers is apparently a bounty hunter looking woman, chillNooo no no no no WE WANTED A WEREWOLF GIRL
>>548401790shut the fuck up porn addictshe's designed around transforming into a werewolf, if they scrap that ability they'll scrap the whole character, like they did with boho, wrecker, raven, and trapper
There is some mental brain blocker where they (normies, companies, game devs, etc.) REFUSE to add monster girls into games. You should be happy they added Ivy and Vyper; Valve is already one of the "furriest" companies out there. Getting any more would be a miracle.
we got a lot of gritty manly man characters last patch so they can add a lil' bit of woke shit, as a treat
>>548401990i would refuse to out of spite for those coomers specifically. the ivyfags are already too much and i detest her for that alone
is it weird that i don't play multiplayer pvp games to cum?
>>548401943Let me put it like this. We're getting a werewolf character 100%. The question is whether you want the game to be flooded with gaybarafurries or not. You can either have 5 posts of "hurr hurr she looks like she effs human men haha" or 500 posts of unironic homos talking about "the knot"
>>548402181a bloo bloo blah blah how about you open that pretty mouth?
>>548402372>let me put it like this, we're getting a russian character 100%
>>548402553Do you want male russian (while be played most by angry vatniks who don't speak English) or female russian (while be peak waifu and enjoyed by all)That is the question
>>548402643who is this semen demon
>>548402643i don't know why you're complaining when the next patch is adding a schoolgirl and a princess for you to self insert as

>>548391323OK, but I'm not posting the full. I value not being 3-day'd too much.
here's another old map clip. when rumors of deadlock were around, no one believed it was a 4 lane moba shooter. everyone thought it was ai, till this clip popped
>>548403908https://files.catbox.moe/ti3167.mp4
>"This hero is so strong in lane!">I eat shit as them in lane>"Lash has one of the worst lanes in the game!">I'm pretty good in lane as Lash
At what point do I give up on a character and say I'm bad at them?
>>548404163Lash has great lane right now. He's basically the new greytalon with how good he is a poking and kill confirming.
>>548359308a kit being 4 random abilities isn't actually a bad thing (necessarily)seven is very fun to play imo and he also has 4 random abilities
>>548403551Everything about the middle of the map was better, including both middle lanes. The two middle lanes with the curved bridges and veils that let you shoot people on those bridges were MUCH better than the awful high rise bridge in current middle. I'm fucking around on the old map right now and reminiscing about some great games I had based around team fights in the middle. The old truck alleys coming out of mid on direct north and south were great for ambushes.I also liked the game taking place in the morning more than taking place at dusk. The only things I like better about the new map are shrinking the amount of empty space in the side lanes and the structures that make up the buff bridges, that's it.
>>548403908I thought that the whole impetus to the open test right now was some Youtube video?

>>548401279Told you I heard about the familliar bs and noped out, hoping things will clear up later. I'll be honest, the game seems to run too far from its setting which is the main attraction for me, the ''leaks'' presented looked like Valorant shit. Funny how we went from ''oh the setting and gameplay are unique'' to nerfed movement and generic design.

Sometimes, everyone just collectively eats shit, and no one in particular is to blame.
>ginnis 2 range and duration scale off spiritHer turret duration should too.
>>548407368Its the lesser evil
>>548407294The problem is that once you do your Death Slam + Ground Stomp + Flog combo, there is nothing to be done and you should just leave until your cooldowns expire.
>>548407372If you say this, it was your fault 100%
Does a hybrid McGinnis work well at all? Like a mix of turret and gun, and I don't just mean spirit shredder for gun.
>>548407461Thats why you flogmax, can get the cd down to 7-8seconds and spam it. Most lash are in it for the ground stomp tho and will bitch until its the meta build
>>548407492you're an initiatorgo skidaddle after forcing items and chunking 30% of health barsset up for your next jump from the top rope in the 8 second cooldown for slam
>>548407672It works well but gun focus is better so every loss will have you questioning if you just ran gun you might have won

>>548399885>>548400036And ammo that you need to buy....
>>548413015should've just bought knockdown and curse and followed warden around
>>548413015always gets worse before it gets better, just keep at it
>>548413184I did buy Knockdown. I don't know when to use it.
>>548412604It went off the rails the moment they updated Ivy...
Have they tweaked what decides if a quitter game counts or not? I'm getting so may early quitters that are still counting as losses instead of being written off.>>548411950Cool skills but they'd balance her for fun like Ivy and I'm an aimlet so I don't like it.
>>548413280>for funfor gun*lmao
>>548413238save it for when haze/lash ults, or if things are a hectic deathball just throw it on literally anyone
This looks like shit, reddit will upvote anything huh
>>548413278The Ivy update was fine though? They walked back the shitty cutest ivy and gave us a great compromise.
>>548413159I think of they did go the mana route then gun ammo could also be tied to it, so buying +mana would boost your capacity to use abilities and gun
>>548413569Compromise is fallacious, if I say 2+2=4 and you say 2+2=6, we cant compromise with 5Accept defeat
Did anyone else realize that if they are doing another set of heroes and drip feeding them to us to drive up engagement, we are looking at a one or two week event, depending on the amount of heroes. And with that delaying fixes and balance tweaks, it means it's likely to not go over the holidays.The update might drop next week.
chat, was he right?
>>548414090they might have 4 heroes ready, personally I think they'll either drop 1-2 now and have a bigger hero update next year, or drop 4-6 of them in january and just do the art update and a christmas event
>>548414084Except you're saying 2+2 is 3 and I'm saying 2+2 is 5 and we agree on 4. Your vision of ivy was flawed and our current ivy is the best iteration of the character
Guys I'm nearly 30 and I get constant 160ms in this: https://humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontimeAm I too slow for this game?
>>548414090i'm pretty sure the 6 heros aren't coming in the dec patchthe dec patch is likely just street brawl + the new bases + yamato remodel
i found the secret to climbingyou press 1 and 4 on dynamo while disjointing ults with 2
>>548414627Bro your 3?
>>548406358Neck yourself for even coming up with this

>>548413437Holliday bros...
I'm so fucking tired of how hard this patch snowballs the wins don't feel great and the losses feel abysmal.
>wraith uses TP straight up and dunks 4 cards on me simultaneously ??????
If you make an alt account in the same steam family as your main, does it automatically put you in that rank??
>>548416070that's coolthe only based wraith players are the honest that use TP offensively
get fucking bristleback ported already
>>548416070Jarvis, queue the lebron dunk clips.
>>548416408I'd rather have Lich.
>>548416408they were porting mars last year but gave up on it
>>548416356Thats all of them now?
>>548416476Classic Lich or NuLich
>>548416408we almost had slark......
>>548416541Classic, clearly.
>>548416642based
Vyper is such cancer to fight.>can't run>spinning around you constantly at mach speed>has large spirit damage skill that is literally unavoidable>ult is a win button 1v1 unless you're a tank
>>548414090If they're hoping to gain any traction from this, I think it'll be early to mid-December, so that a lot of people will be able to play/stream/watch/talk about the update during the holidays. Releasing the heroes one by one also gives them a little bit more time to get the unfinished ones ready.Delaying the update to January just seems overly pessimistic to me at this point, I mean, they didn't do anything special for Halloween, even though I'd imagine they would have probably wanted to, at least. So any progress they made back then would have been pushed to the next update, and also the leakers keep leaking content.
>>548416516never in solo que i've ever seen a single wraith use the TP to move forward
>>548386391I play a lot of similar characters to eido and I almost never use his builds because he always has one or two items that he has as pet items, and one or two items that are staples that he refuses to buy, he also never updates his skill orders since he does them manually in his gamesIll use mina as an example even though I havent played her in 2 months>obsessed with buying headhunter, absolute dogshit item>hasnt experimented with toxic after the spirit buffs>now he maxes lovebites first for the stamina drain, but it still showed sanguine retreat as a first max, I dont think it even updated the rake skill order after they changed it for lane
>>548416408Bristle would fucking suck in a third person shooter.Who wants to play a hero where you are forced to look away from all the action? Also turnspeed isnt a thing here either
>>548416727knockdown
>>548416642Imagine eating your own healing trooper each wave and denying the enemy both the heal abd souls.Holy shit that would be fun!
>>548416807>overly pessimisticWe got this leak that they were testing the 6 hero update heroes back in april, then a few weeks later we got the shop update with no new heroes. The rem model we've seen looks okay, but the rest we've only got fucking scribbles for.
>>548416878dude fucking loves stam mastery
>>548417141yeah, although I do admit its probably necessary on mina
Why are we certain that a big patch is coming in december?
>>548416837Its newish since this patch but I see it all the time, tele maxing is op so people will use it to get in and have it again to get out
>>548417328Because YoSHIT said it was.
>>548417328yoshi said it TWICE
>>548417130But they've only made like 3 or 4 major updates throughout the year, who's to say they haven't been laying the foundation for this since the start in any way? or at least parts of it. Also, they might give the testers a few days to try things out before rolling out fixes or new content, that doesn't mean the devs have to stop everything in their lives for several days in a row just to see what the testers think, they can keep developing content
>>548417328yoshi announced it on halloween because of update rumors and said they were still on track for a december release last week, which means it's close to being content lockedwe also had leaks showing new patron models in a larger base layout with 2 spawn rooms
>>548417238I dont think its necessary but it is a very attractive luxury item for sure, the stam regen is the big draw for me, you can get her stam regen down to ~3.3secondsIt also boosts your airdash speed
>>548417328There is 99% chance a big patch is coming in december.How big is the main argument. I personally just think it'll be base and some remodels as everything we know about the new heroes seems to be in the state that >>548417130 the 6 heroes that eventually released were in, and as we know the item rework came and then the heroes came some months later.
>>548416980Seems like moveslow would be a lot better, knockdown against grounded targets sucks
>try to play gun vinny>literal peashooter that does zero damage>could just be playing miku if i wanted to be slow as shit with no escape>try to play spirit vinny>ult is buggy as shit, constantly doesn't fire, and you have to actually aim your shit>could just play grey talon and have the same fucking ability but a hundred times easier to land and from the start of the matchi don't watch esports shitl. how exactly are pros making her work?
>>548418334ult kills let you reach the 4.8k investment bonuses earlier than everyone else
>>548386391ive never liked eido builds as a pocket-mina player because they favor autistic mobility (and clicking 30 things for burst) over everything else. that's how the characters are supposed to be played, sure, but he almost maximizes mobility to fit his specific skill/playstyle which doesn't translate well to the everyday player. he can get away with those builds because he plays in a very spergy way, someone picking up the character can't get away with it because they don't know the other 30 microsteps that need to be taken with it.
Wraith's TP should go half as far if her ult is on cooldown. That way she can't fight and get a free escape at the same time.
>>548418334My issue with Vinny is that I love her stake and crow but can't aim for shit. God I wish the crow was on someone else.
>>548418334Just dump point into 2 and you'll be shitting gun damage.
>>548418334Full retard into spirit, rush improve spirit+ rapid recharge for 4.8k and save all your ap for ult to max it firstThats what the pros are doing, I prefer flight builds personally
>>548400879we fucking warned you it was gonna go this way ever since the last updateyou people laughed at the guys saying billy and paige didn't belong and look where we are now
why the fuck do i go on huge win streaks then massive lose streaks>>548418681play support alchemical flash echoshard stake vindicta
>>548418681it's shiv knife? it's literally just shiv knife but condensed into a 30 second cd so it deals way more damage
>>548418562Miku's gun should shoot half as fast if her wall is on cooldown.
>>548418334>and you have to actually aim your shit>how exactly are pros making her workyou cant be this fucking retarded
>>548418334>how exactly are pros making her work?they can aim and their teammates allow you to get the killing blows for the gigantic pile of free souls per kill.
Do you guys ever trash talk? This dynamo kept calling me a rat for chasing him (which ironically makes him more of the rat)
>>548411950looks a hundred times more visually appealing than holliday
>>548419056pros just level her ult to t2 then max crow before getting t3 snipe thoughit's a single free t1 camp
>>548419053are you intentionally being retarded or merely just pretending? read that shit again. you can just play grey talon and have that ult from the start of the fucking match while chucking logs at them too.
>>548419684oh so you really are retarded, got it
>>548419737you took the word right outta my mouth
>>548419280uoh mai goddo ids migu :DDDDhe's just mad his crutch hero isn't letting him survive after putting himself in a shit position (i main dynamo)
is an mmo mouse worth it for this game?

>>548421112wtf lash does that? proof?also you're stupid for thinking heroes can be everyday people ofc they're all important
>>548421518why would i post my rank have to do with anything? You're the retard who doesnt understand the game lmao
>>548421402one can only hope. fucking hate those lazy freeloaders.
>>548422036Try selecting him a few time.

>>548422365if anything the burden of proof is on you, but we both know you wont post either because you cant understand simple game concepts
>>548422521that's obv a joke
>>548422542>y-y-y-y-you should show yours first!!!lmfaoproof of what anyways, retard? i never denied that i wasn't seeker. now go ahead, show yours.
Do they just not care that this patch became 10x more snowball-y? Do they want it this way? This is fucking awful. Wins feel effortless and losses feel like there's nothing you can do.
>>548423097How about tell them that?? The game is entirely community guided
>>548422967>I know i'm shit but you should still s-s-show your rank!you're so fucking stupid it hurts and your feelings are hurt that you got called retarded (you are). probably a EU player too KEK

>>548423382i had the same shit earlier
What went wrong? He was mid-rank before the update.
>>548422360Mages were there during his execution and were taking part using magic to kill and seal his soul away. He is a lich
>>548423302I don't know anyone that hasn't bitched about it, and yet they haven't touched or reverted any of the jungle or soul drop changes.>>548423382>juggernautPlacebo anti gun. By the time you get it they have 3 fire rate items.
>>548423637he can't toe to toe vs anyone even with a soul lead
How do I stop forgetting that I bought counterspell and start using it
>>548423382fire rate reduction was great last patch when gun did a normal amount of damage. it's terrible now. you're better off just buying flat damage reduction. plated armor sucks now too.
Is there any reason to not go extra charge first on dynamo to bully the enemy
>>548424216and other things seekers believe
>>548424531if the enemy has more than 2 stamina and knows how to jump
>reduced jungle spawns mean a decent invade cripples your soul income much harder than it used to>trooper soul changes mean if you get pushed to tower you can't leave it, because killing troopers before they reach you means you can't get the soulsHow did none of the "testers" talk about any of this?>>548424531Nope.
>play bebop>two enemies in front of me>press 2>the bomb attaches to the friendly guardian BEHIND THEM>echo shard>IT HAPPENS AGAIN>they just walk away and avoid itswear to god this game punishes you for trying to play any build other than gun bebop
>>548424660>How did none of the "testers" talk about any of this?dude, just trust the elites. They are always right and always know better than you
>>548424653>enemy jumps dynamo q>throw out another >and another>and anotheranother one
>drifter parries before i even heavy melee>charge up melee while he's still in the animation>still get parriedwhy is parry active for twenty fucking years
>Boot up game>Matchmaking is still unbelievably dogshit>Close game
>>548425514The parry animation is dogshit, it fades away before it even stops. They need to make it pop more when finishing so you know for certain you're not getting a face full of the strongest disable in the game.
>>548425514i got fucked on earlier cuz I parried a guy and went to punch him twice. was not aware they changed it so you can't get two hmelees out. I got parried on the second lmao
>>548425971you should be able to, a missed parry cooldown is 4.5 seconds. unless they had rebuttal
>>548423637these statistic sites are bogus bro
>>548425514I've done this many times, it's annoying.
>>548423637the api is broken bro, stop thinking these stats are accurate
>>548392310There's definitely been an influx of shitty Bebop players since the patch. Every retard wants to do the stupid high-speed suicide bomber build now.Of all the changes made this patch, the bomb movespeed is one of the most fucking stupid. People who have no business playing Bebop (can't land a fucking hook to save their lives) can still be a complete menace if they get enough farm.
>>548425514because valve fucking HATES melee for some reason
>>548363886The reality is by the time most people are 30 they have families to look after. That means working full time, getting home, having to look after their kids, sorting out some shit in the house, then maybe getting a couple hours to yourself. This is less practise. You become worse. It's less your age and the responsibilities that typically follow. If you don't have all that shit on your plate though you could still be competitive. I go like 40-4 35-3 28-2 etc regularly in BF6 and I'm 30.
>>548411950this looks retarded lol
>>548366519Nah Ivy support being like B tier is correct. Viable but by no means as strong as actual meta.
>>548424531Mystic burst cause I only need 1 charge
>>548425514>>548425758why are you guys trying to punish a parry with frame perfect timing? just shoot them for a bit and then punch them when it's 100% guaranteed free.
>>548427398most of the time you're throwing punches like that you simply don't have bullets and the enemy is one heavy melee away from death
>>548425971you can get two but you have to start heavy meleeing right as your parry stuns them and hold the punch button down.if you parry them and don't instantly heavy punch back you can only land one, also do not adjust your distance between punches because adding a bit of travel time might be enough to fuck you.
>>548380416Nova rush is when you're getting raped in lane. I like it but prefer 4.8k gun spike if I can help it. Nova heal boost is a convenient 4.8k spike too.
>>548421112>IcejeetYou get 10 hearty keks from me
>>548423637I will give credit to bebop players if they stop trying to frame him as weak, they intentionally grief themselves more than any other playerbase because almost none of them play the actual viable bebop builds so they can run around like a suicide race car because they care about fun more than winning
>>548428204>funbuzzword
>>548392090It's because urn reveals you and is slow as fuck. They make changes to make it so you can counter it more but it ironically winds up benefitting the team that is ahead more. Same shit with mid boss. Can't swoop up the buff in one punch so no more playing from behind and trying to space out a play.
>>548428204>the actual viable bebop buildslike?
give me a quirky paige build
>>548428852Just ran into a hybrid Paige, had the most damage on our team.>end speed, fleetfoot, enchanters, battle vest, QSR, bullet lifesteal, express shot, SoP, Burst FireNo idea what she had the QSR & SoP on.
>>548423382If an item isn't in the braindead autobuy build that they copied from some streamer, they don't buy it.
>>548396771>playing support ivy>go 4800 gun at the very start just to give myself a decent chunk of damage to help out in fights>some retard going 0-8 on victor on another lane starts flaming me for going titanic mag point blank first itemsThese retards just don't get it...
Can I get some help with a hybrid McGinnis build? Everything is either full gun or full spirit. Is just grabbing all the debuff items a meme?
>>548429380if you want to play full debuff there are better heroes to do it on, like seven
>>548405216It's because the longer someone plays a game with matchmaking, the more time they've put into it, the more they're sure the people around them should be at their skill level. But people aside from skill have different ideas on how they want to play a match. Some split. Some rat. Some brawl. Some play passive in jungle and walkers. What's true of all though is they're terrible at communicating. It leads to frustration, tilting, feeding. If a guy could just say "I need unstoppable to win fights give me a few minutes" no one would force a fight without him and then cry he's not there.
>>548429380This was my hybrid build before the patch so its not updated its got a lot of movement like enduring+fleet+ warpstone. Updated one would be mostly the same except capacitor would be cut, for what idk maybe spellslinger or frenzy
>>548408127How do you calculate diminishing returns I've never got it
>>548399768Grats bro, keep up the good work! :D
>>548430687Would you still build tesla? And I'd swap one of the movespeed for heroic aura.
>>548412107>>548412520I literally guarantee it tries to find extra competitive games, can't grab enough people near your rank with it on after a few minutes, and then just forces a game with a mix of on and off so you're not stuck waiting 40 minutes in a queue.
>Solo queue>My lane partner is a melee creepBRING BACK THE FUCKING SOLO LANES
>>548430917Nah probably not, thinking about it id probably cut enchanters too for siphon and try to fit titanic mag in
>>548414569160ms is fine

lol, paradox is basically a griefpick non-character now, congrats fags for crying so much about her.Meanwhile shit like vyper is sliding around you doing +1k damage in spirit with no investement and having 600+ gun dps at 25k souls.

I hate how they buffed Calico awhile back and she was a monster. I really enjoyed the game more when people thought she was garbage before putting her on everyone's radar because of the buffs. Now I'm getting so many gun Calico in my games, which is so fucking broken. Bitch has a 50 second get out of jail free card and then she can go into her cat form and scurry away. What a disingenuous character>>548414569Abrams is the character for you.
