They really need to buff Silver.
I despise Haze players
I just got hit with an extremely upsetting revelation.A week ago I was Alchemist 2in that week I managed to scrounge up more victories than losses.I just checked now and I'm Seeker 5.Bros....Is it because I'm playing more heroes?What happened?
>>568370081Silver is hard to balance because she is a victim of the item system being incompleteShe's starving of souls and many of her items (especially T4 ones) don't have good build paths
How often should Yamato use melee? Doesn't she mostly proc melee effects off of flying slash?
hypothetically speaking, could vindicta get pregnant
Is he good right now?
gay sex with apollo!
>>568370167That's why I love this image>Haze is put in as the high skill expression hard to play character, as if her gameloop isn't just going invisible, throwing a knife, pressing slowing hex/curse, and then ulting for 5 billion damage, then going invisible again and fucking off>Mo, Doorman, and it's either Holliday or Drifter idk, are the bullshit anti-fun characters that are super easy to play (nothing like my ultbot hero)
>>568370670calling holliday an easy anti fun character is mad
wow my urn is favored and now it spawns in "my" territory? thanks surely by now enemy team can't just rape my ass inside my base and run free urns anywhere they want
Celeste goes to Gutterland
>>568370743um its okay when I CC you, but its not okay when you CC me
Shiv is actually so fucking cool. I hope they don't ruin him if they ever remodel him because he's still one of the heroes with Neon Prime model.
>try out haze since i reached a new rank peak with my main>get my shit pushed in since i obviously am not as skillful with a new hero than the one i have almost 100 games inman i wish there was unranked
I just found out after almost 170 hours that you have infinite ammo if you're sliding.
how do i actually get close to people as apollo without spending all my stamina?
>>568371416ELO assassin-chama...
You ever see a mod so stupid you just have to try it out?https://litter.catbox.moe/s6g1z84xzkrsc6op.mp4
>when he pulls out the slowing hex
>>568371240They need to just say fuck it, embrace the memes, and make him Sun Wukong>He's the king of monkeys and is on a Journey to the West to receive a blessing from the Buddha- I mean the Patrons
>>568371240i read somewhere that he was supposed to get a remodel? Idk why tho is model is tuff and should stay
>check deadlock streamers>they all use cheat modswhen will valve ban these losers, nobody will take this game seriously when they're doing this stuff openly.
>>568371416Average Vyper I get in my game >Fuckers literally never slide, they spend more time reloading and meleeing than sliding
If they updated Deadlock to remove your total souls count and someone made a mod that makes it visible, would that be cheating?
>>568371586Can you pull up the terms of service for deadlock and show me where it says it's cheating?
>>568371586It brings quality to their lives
>>568371759Yes.>>568371586I lost all desire to play with my duo ever since I found out this guy plays with cheat mods after he made a comment about how a character is saving up for an item because he can see the unspent souls. All "QOL" mods need to go.
>>568371472>>568371668I thought all those streamers were just humping the lane stairs because they had ADHD or some shit.At no point, at least from my POV, was there anything telling me I have infinite ammo during slides.I was wondering why vyper players were sliding all over the place thinking that they were just being agile and playing hard to hit.Only when I was playing her did I realize she gets a barrier on her slide and after a few more games realized I hadnt needed to reload when pursuing players.Fuck I feel so stupid
>>568371506>-8 innate debuff resistBuilt for domloss rape.
>>568371416I know this and I still hardly ever slide
>another mcfatty game>another carryI don't even know what I'm doing. It feels like there's a massive powerspike with the turrets but half the time I'm not even paying attention to what I buy or what I upgrade, so I have no idea of what triggers it.
Gun Victor is DEADSpirit Victor urnslop AOEslop is IN
>>568371240He looks a bit too monkey I think.I don't care if he's ugly but I hope they fix his monkey mouth/jaw, everything else is cool.
>>568370670>Guntards when the enemy uses abilities to do damage instead of holding down m1
>>568371953>At no point, at least from my POV, was there anything telling me I have infinite ammo during slides.Anon, I.....
>>568371950that hud mod everyone uses is super gay because who needs a 2nd rendition at the top of macro and constantly knowing how much unspent souls someone has is super gayI do think valve should port the soul % difference though since thats difficult to do off the top of your head and .1% is the difference between advantaged and neutral urn
M1GGERS CAN'T USE ABILITIES TO DO DAMAGE! YOU HAVE TO DO M1 ONLY!
10 pixels of aiming is more skillful than 40 meter circles of cc
>>568372448I think anyone can agree unspent souls isn't info you should have but most of QOL lock is just streamlining info you already have (like the % ahead/behind mentioned) or customizing where hud elements sit on your screen or how they display so you can tweak for more visual clarity. Coming from TF2, it's a no brainer that I should be able to mod in a custom hud that centers my healthbar and turns it into a very basic numerical value rather than a diagonal tapered bar.
Sex with Venator
>>568372397Im not looking at that when im shooting said weapon.The only time I'm looking at that is after buying an ammo item or when im farming camps so I know when to use quicksilver reload efficiently.Im not as perceptive as you clearly
Is manually installing mods good enough or do I have to install the stupid mod manager?
Venator is the only honest m1gger because he has to aim his ult
>>568372935>execute heroes are honestthats a good one
>>568372902The stupid mod manager is really nice actually. One button installs.
>>568372902Manual is good enough. The mod manage was a total piece of shit for me when I tried it, it literally stops working after a while
Holliday is bad but incredibly dishonest
Deadlock will look like this when open beta happens
>>568370081a lot of heroes suffer from not knowing what's coming so instead of adding draft they have to make them too viable or not enoughmains would still cry they're not strong at every point in the game in any comp but whatever
>>568371240For Yamato they should just use the fucking mod redesign at this rate, people will complain about anything else
>>568373423how did a guy like lashton hale get gracecroft from resident shartium
Silver needs buffs.
>Built in CCDishonest>Execute abilitiesDishonest >Being an ultbotDishonestIs there even a single honest hero in dishonestlock?
>>568374558celeste by your metrics
Billy is the only honest hero. You don't even need items to counter his entire gimmick
melee rem, think about it
>>568375650>buy spirit snatch>buy crushing fist>cast naptime
Melee Victor... think Bout it...
>>568375948No, that is bad. I will not.
melee trapper
>Turns out that my mate that's a Rem main gets very mad when his team tells him to not get their sinners because in his words "they're not doing them so why shouldn't I just take them" then proceeds to do pillow build and do the least player damage
>>568376589>"they're not doing them so why shouldn't I just take them"Hes right you know. You can't just call dibs on all the farm. You have to actually take it.
>>568376589hes right that if they're not taking sinners, he should just be doing themif you didn't want your rem to take sinners, you should be doing themEveryone complains about the wraith hoovering up all the jungle, but they wouldn't be doing jungle anyway
I dont use mods and my pp is massive
>>568376589as long as he does the enemies sinners first its okay. my friend does the same thing as your friend but he only does our sinners, and he does them as soon as they spawn.
>>568376589>they're not doing them so why shouldn't I just take themit's true thoughThey get left up and then the instant Rem walks into the jungle "ermmm you're a support you're not supposed to take those" so then they just get left up for 10+ minutes
Is rem ult an initiation tool or for counter initiaton? for example when an enemy billy or lash just ulted
>>568376589He's a fag for getting mad and not just taking them anyways.Switch to Dota if you want farm priority and position 4&5 babysitters.
>>568377074Initiation tools are generally also counter initiation tools
>>568377074Rem ult does lots of things
>>568377290Wrong, some are best used during chaos and not as an opener
>>568376589He's based for taking sinners and jungle if nobody else on his team is doing it, especially since it's mostly the supports that are burdened with buying all the expensive CC items like curse, but he's cringe for whining about people who wouldn't have taken sinners and farms anyway, bitching about him
>>568377426Thats what a counter initiation is, anon
How do I stop feeding during lane as vyper?
having fun only when winning and using meta characters, or having fun regardless of if you're winning or not, and refraining from using meta characterswhich option does this gen prefer more?
>>568377880just don't even bother pushingkill wave at towerget boxes, get sinners, get camp
>>568375948You could get three melees off with ult if you timed it right.
does anyone have that clip of the sinclair bunnying and meleeing mina
>>568378309This applies for Billy too. He's easily one of the worst laners
>>568378379its applicable for any bad laners, and when you're vs the turboaids laners.You're just gonna die if you push, so don't. You don't have to kill their tower early, wait until your build comes online or until your other lanes are free to come push with youThe real problem is actually following this and not thinking to yourself "nah but like, I'd win these." on repeat
>>568378379his front loaded burst is pretty good. if you're playing with another burst character you can coordinate jumps and represent a strong kill laneI agree that 90% of the time his lane is pure garbage
My Seven is a RETARD
Haze ult hitting me from behind bridge pillars is ridiculousGT and Yamato 1 are also bullshit hitting me behind cover
>>568378572>play abrams>enemy doesn't giga throw and push the guardian because they know I can charge them into the guardian>I do barely 1k damage in laneCan they undo the range falloff nerf already?
>>568378680>he farmed for fucking lightning scroll
>>568377074It isn't very strong and it's giga easy to CS so imo it's better to use midfight rather than starting one (since by that point people may have already burned their CS so you can actually proc your ult), but don't just sit on it forever waiting for a good opportunity. If your team wants to start a fight and nobody seems to be making the first move then go for it.
>>568376589Those sinners were promised to Rem 3000 years ago
>>568378689it's easy to LoS Haze ult, I don't know how you fucked that up
man one tricking lets you climb but as soon as you play other heros again you just SUCK!
>>568377880Vyper is a lane bully, how are you feeding in lane with her? Slide up and down the stairs and hold M1 at either them or their waves, any time someone is around 40% hp you throw 2 on them and slide at them holding M1 and they're basically guaranteed to die, her 1 is kinda ass in lane but try to hit more of them than not. If you're in danger, ult them and slither away.
>Every streamer hesitates when calling Pocket a "they" instead of a "he"It's funny how performative this is
>>568379287probably building early gun itemsvyper rapes in lane if you get a bit of spirit
Well, /dlg/?
>>568379327>people need time to get used to integrating new language into their speech>woke disproven
>>568379627they don't actually think of him as a 'they' and have to consciously police their speech to appease lunatics that will flip out at them
i think when given the opportunity you should always take midboss instead of midwalkerwhats the high elo consensus on this
>>56837962110
>>568379621He's 2. Shitters think he's strong but he's never picked or banned in night shift because he's easy to counter.
>>568379929pocket is strictly referred to as they/them in the game if you wanna make up your own headcanon you can but it doesnt make it true
>>568379996>Downplaying Dynamo
>>5683796214. He got some meaningful nerfs recently but he'll permanently be A tier because of his ult.>>56837999657% wr in E6 lobbies btw. """Pro""" lobbies aren't reflective of actual game balance.
>>568380085okay but the subject isn't the cannon, it's what people think and how they hesitate to say something they don't believe
>>568380209thats true. If they hesitate because they think pocket should have he/him pronouns and only do it to appease to a specific crowd you would be right but I wanted to say that some wanna use the lore accurate ones but are not used to it and thus hesitate
>>568380085>Looks like a man>Talks like a man>Acts like a man>Was about to marry Mina>Lives in the sewers with M&KHe's not even androgynous he's a twink
Abrams...
>>568380569so what you can do all of that and still prefer other pronouns. Why not?
>>568380569>He's not even androgynous he's a twinkI'm not a troon pocket defender but literally what defines a twink is having a small, feminine body (i.e androgyny)
>>568376589Fair.
>our only current ritual poster is an actual faggot who just spams gay porn every single thread
>>568380840black woman poster didn't survive the great tumblring of the old gods...
>>568378680I CAN'T BUILD!!!
>>568380085I think pocket's they/them pronouns is just fucking stupidbecause the pronouns themselves have nothing to do with his lore or anythingno gender dysphoria-adjacent lore implications, no character traits for self-doubting, absolutely nothing in deadlock has anything to do with his pronouns being the way that they are. not even anything to do with sexuality, or if pocket is just some secret, closeted weirdo.I could respect valve a little more if they actually had the pronouns have a real purpose related to his lorebut they really just threw that shit in there as a "well this is based in america, so we gotta have some casual political shit thrown in there or whatever" even though no one was using motherfucking they/them pronouns in the 1940's
