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

Don't enable attention whore leakers. Just go play something else.
It's obvious the public-but-also-closed access is a failed experiment and they only use it to stress test slop that needs a big dataset for feedback. Remember they opened the test in a panic because of Uncle Dane, originally you couldn't even stream or take screenshots (back when there was invite trees). Would probably not even know if Deadlock exists or what it is beyond dataleak mentions in CS or DotA today without it.

Letting me play deadlock was the only good think uncledane the molester main ever did that was any good, I was there back in 2024 may when we got weekly updates, when they where not worried about changing shit for real and adding in wacky half done hero's and I will never stop hating the fags that treated this like a full game and made them open there real real beta test.

>>
>>573990448
I agree, but that's just how it is. I can only think of one or two people that when presenting Deadlock mentioned it was a half baked mess in some aspects because it wasn't supposed to be shown, everyone else treats it as some sort of closed but not really open-beta. See how people shat their pants after Hero Labs too. That's why I say it's a failed experiment. Volvo probably thought they could do whatever and get a ton of valuable feedback, now they know that if they do something very experimental they'll just tank any goodwill towards the game from normalfags (hence why I don't understand the last Urn slop and now Rift slop).

I don't want a surrender option.
I don't care about some epic 2hr comeback where surrender would have totally fucked it or something, that isn't the point.

Surrender is bad because it cultivates a surrender mentality where people just want to quit the moment something goes bad, if surrender exists these same people try to hold others hostage and constantly whine to surrender because THEY are having a bad game even if WE as a team are winning.
I fucking hate that shit, I hate having to deal with whiny fucks and the ability to surrender just increases the amount of whiny fucks in the game and gives them ammunition to shit things up.

Surrender lowers match quality.
If you disagree you are retarded and one of the exact fragile people everyone else wants to not deal with.

this gave me an idea. valve could try making a different queue that has a surrender option for people that want this as an experiment. i would be interested in what kind of metas form there. im assuming lane dominating heros would see a spike in wr% with "people" with weak mental surrendering immediately in lane. also rank convergence would be different as everything is decided by crushing opponents mental over actual state of the game

They should add a surrender option but it should flag your profile when used and send you into a separate matchmaking with other people of the same mentality, that way people that actually aren’t punished because 4/6 of the team gave the fuck up, sure the first month of its release will be a mess but you’d see a uptick in match quality later on

It's simple really, they're boosted by their character so they think they can do no wrong, thus lose their shit when they start losing.
Meanwhile supportsissies start to micromanage others because they can't do shit on their own/get constantly dove, suddenly they think they are the smartest person in the room and know better than everyone else (also playing some of the easiest characters in the game).

This is what constitutes deadlock dev work, a literal .1% adjustment. Not balancing Pocket or Shiv or Wraith or any of the other obnoxious OP characters.

She's braindead easy to play even for m1 character standards.

The Cube is too reality-warping for Viscous to have other moves thoughbeit

>>574003120
The cube is okay but other characters have far more obnoxious abilities, like Mina's teleport that also disjoints everything and she can use it twice/three times. Or Pocket's case on a way shorter cooldown. Or Yamato having 6 Phantom Strikes that also go through walls.

I agree, I was talking about it in another thread, but of the last 12 heroes added, how many would you say are actually good additions to the game? Venator and Rem are both okay. The other ten are all varying degrees of awful. Victor and Graves will always be problem characters since they take 0 skill to play. Apollo is obnoxious. Celeste is obnoxious. Paige is braindead. Doorman is obnoxious. Mina is overpowered and obnoxious. Drifter is overpowered and obnoxious.
>>574003829
The urn KOTH nonsense is so bad and the fact that they not only solidified it as a mechanic but made it twice as snowbally with the rift creeps is actually baffling game design. Not only do you get several thousand souls from the rift plus the kills you get, you also get a free walker for another couple thousand souls.
>>574003489
Yeah I miss the punch builds or really being able to do ANYTHING besides spam splatter and cube+rescue beam, but apparently asking people to use one of the most overpowered things in the game (parries) was too much.

>>574004067
you should just quit because if you are crying about drifter and doorman, you are never going to like any new heroes. the core problem are the OG cast being insanely strong because they were designed before the game took shape. haze/wraith/infernus/kelvin and some others are still completely insane and are just waiting on certain metas to blow up, all new characters need a certain level of power to be able to compete. ivy has never had a WR below 52% since release and stone form is by far the strongest single ability in the game.
>>
>>574005568
Anon, I got to Phantom and lost interest in the main game mode because of the atrocious balance. I know Ivy is overpowered, and that Stone Form is overpowered. It's a better Viscous cube.
I agree that Haze, Infernus, Wraith, and Kelvin are all busted, but that's because the devs are retarded and released these overpowered characters, then felt the need to randomly pick old characters to powercreep too

NTA or even a Ivy player, but I should certainly think a self-target restricted ability should be "better" than one that can be cast on any friendly player. What are you trying to say here?
>>
>>574006108
The main issue with stone form is that it is absurdly strong on top of Ivy having no bad abilities. Viscous has had his entire kit gutted outside of Splatter and Cube, so he's literally half a hero.

yeah
>>
>>574006329
OK, I'm just saying that it doesn't make sense to compare those abilties, they're pretty fundamentally different and the common point is the invulnerability. It seems like a better ability to judge whether it is overpowered or not is something like Pocket satchel or possibly Apollo risposte, as they are self-target damage invuln and have offensive capability on top of it.
>>
>>574006108
Self-target with no cooldown and a massive AOE stun?
>>
>>574006721
NTA, but it's a powerful ability that has absolutely kept this character in a top 10 or top 5 winrate. every other character in the cast has seen various forms of ability gutting and are basically awaiting reworks
>>

>>574006108
>>574006721
Stone Form is much better than Cube because cube can only be used defensively, while stone form can do both offense and defense at the same time, while also being one of the best non-ult abilities for securing rejuv (the most important thing in the game) and it completely cucks Dynamo's ult if you time it right. Ivy is always going to be busted because she's one of the few things people genuinely like about Deadlock.

That too. If your game is going to have a ton of esoteric techniques in it, especially in regards to something as basic and essential as movement, you better have good tutorials for it. Deadlock fails horribly in this regard and that's one of the main problems with it, they either need to simplify the movement stuff or add tutorials for it, but they will do neither and people will hate it.

wheres the harm of people doing edge and cornerboosts anyway? if you dont want to do it you will settle in a rank where people dont do it and thats it. you will never see it happen in your oracle matches. also there are a gorillion different video games you could be playing that dont have "tranny movement" or "troonment" but instead you decide to play a valve game. valve games are known to have loads of intentionally left in movement tech

there are countles examples of video games becoming more fun because of emergent features that came from engine quirks. see gunz, tf2, dark souls 1-3 and bb pvp etcetc. i shouldnt even be arguing about this. i already won since deadlock has these tech and their position in the game has been solidified with custom sounds and acknowledgement of the devs. you lost. deadlock will always be a movement game

counter strike is still fun. it's a tactical stealth game. you get used to the maps and learn the ambush or "peek" spots and then it's a mix of catching them off guard or having better reaction times. it's a simple and fun game. the real problem with CS is the rampant cheating but I don't want to derail
>>
most games with "advanced movement" just die because people don't want to look for external guides on how to do it no matter how easy it is.
titanfall 2 in it's prime had maybe 3 people in a whole lobby on average that knew how to tap strafe and that shit was easy as fuck. if you knew how to do it you'd easily just farm the entire lobby and nobody would have fun except you going like 60-2.
if they want it to be in the official skill stack for the game they need to tell people how to fucking do it somewhere in the game and not on an autistic wiki page or on a youtube video.

yah. the comp scene was mildly successful but small. this is an icefrog game, they want 500,000 players, not 10,000.

it's one of the strongest arguments against leaning into the movement shooter aspects. those games...do not do well. they do not last long. they have small hardcore fanbases and then quickly wither and die. it's also a very sloppy feature for an icefrog game, why would there be a meta defining movement technique that isn't taught to the average player or costs stamina?

I am not surprised by that, but there is a critical trend that movement shooters have. they all fail because of oblique movement techniques. if it is that easy to do and the devs cannot or will not remove it, then slap it into the tutorial and make it cost stamina to match dashes.
>>
>>574008916

There's a pretty clear gradiant when it comes to movement skills in Deadlock. You can easily tell which general bracket a player is in based on their movement, which tells me that players intuitively learn core movement mechanics naturally when ranking up. Yes, there are so extremely niche movement mechanics that require near frame-perfect jumping but that's very rare to see even in E6 lobbies.

I am not calling deadlock a failure. my point is that tilting the game in favor of movement shooter mechanics isn't a good idea because they never do good. they are historically a niche and unpopular genre. I have not even argued for REMOVING corner boosting, I have argued for just incorporating it into the systems, but I figure you're arguing in bad faith and would get mad if it cost stamina to do
>>
>>574008916
Titanfall 2 also died because the only viable weapons were the CAR smg and the sniper rifle that one shots people, since you could use both while flying around the map and being unkillable. It made for very boring gameplay, similar to what we have in Deadlock now.
>>574009703
>secret shop is clearly displayed on the map
>this is equivalent to movement techniques that are not at all explained ever and you have to look it up on the autistic movement wiki
The fact that Deadlock's movement mechanics are so buggy and retarded that it needs an entire wiki to document them shows how bad it is.

>It costs stamina
>It is made explicit where you can perform them and how to do so

Right now Deadlock's movement system is all about abusing the shitty stamina system to use as little of it as possible, rather than having to manage it as a resource. There's a reason most of the OP characters have some form of bonus movement, it allows them to not use their stamina so they can easily escape from any bad situation

titanfall 2 had skill based matchmaking.
you very much underestimate how many people will just give up if they have to look something up, no matter how much fun they're having in the game.
classic moba games don't have tutorial videos, they are guides because the execution requirements to play those games are really low.
you can watch a tutorial for movement tech in deadlock and probably not even get it even after trying it for an hour as an average player.
even eternus players have trouble learning this shit. average players are not going to grind a mechanic for hours until it becomes second nature. to you this seems fine, the rules of nature will settle them into low ranks where nobody knows how to do it but a lot of these people will see something they can't do and don't want to invest time in learning how to do and will just outright quit the game.
>>
>>574011027
>Titanfall 2 also died because the only viable weapons were the CAR smg and the sniper rifle that one shots people
Titanfall only died because Respawn abandoned it like an aborted fetus to trendchase the battle royale genre. It used to be DDOSed to death daily for years until people pestered Respawn enough to do something about it
Genuinely beat and rape Respawn devs to death
>>
>>574011257
It died for that reason too, but also because it had horrendous balance. Much like Deadlock.
>>574008860
Gunz was a mess of a game. PVP in souls games is retarded as fuck and not meant to be taken even remotely seriously.

Deadlock's movement tech is not fun to perform and it is gatekept by nasally trannies making youtube videos on how to perform it, instead of the devs going 'hmmm this core aspect of the game, maybe we should add a tutorial for it instead of listening to night shift players about nerfing silver for the 50th time'

Tons of competitive games require you to go look shit up if you wanna get git gud.

because intuitive design is nice.
counter strafing is actually pretty intuitive, your accuracy is based on your velocity and when you move and let go of a key you have residual velocity.
tapping the other direction to stop faster and gain accuracy actually makes sense.
now why does wall jumping at the end of a wall make you go faster and how would one intuit that from scratch?

Even if I were to agree with that, counterstrafing is also an extremely important and basic mechanic in CS that you essentially need to learn past the most casual level. An actual comparison to cornerboosting, you know, a somewhat niche and advanced technique that isn't used in every fight and 99% of the playerbase doesn't use at all would be something like silent dropping or run boosting. How about the lineups required at a high level that fundamentally change the things you're allowed to do at round start if you don't know them and/or the enemy does? Fuck, how about the way ladders work?

>>574028604
MM is a somewhat technical, solved thing rather than the more nebulous art of game balancing so I doubt it. It will probably feel bad at first, granted, simply because it'll likely have to recalibrate everybody like a new game/season but I'm certain it'll be an overall positive change and even at worst about the same. I'm not saying the current matchmaker doesn't need improvement but I think people might expect a bit too much from an MM system at times and are too quick to immediately determine their teammates don't belong after one game or even a quarter of a game especially in genres like this where games snowball, people aren't always playing their main, and there are MUs to take into account.

Pretty low; matchmaking's problem is that the player pool is too small to have low skill spreads in a lobby, and this is unlikely to change - in either direction - with a MM update

Paige is too squishy with no mobility to be a melee character. It's not that nuanced. Also Calico has higher melee potential with echo shard bombs being able to stack the melee resist shred.
In comparison, Warden and Mo are both the tankiest close range characters in the game. Warden gets sustain from barrier. Mo gets sustain from scorn which also gives him damage amp, and is as easy to use as spamming flask. Both imbue QSR to their 1. Both have similar fire rates, with Mo dealing slightly more damage per shot when all pellets hit (his 'shotgun' doesnt have meme spread like Abrams gun). They're not that incomparable.

>Warden's CC makes people sitting ducks that take bonus bullet damage

The only singular ability that makes Mo potentially more suited to gun than warden is their 1.
In all other abilities its worse.
And as you mentioned, Mo has spread which means that he only does more base damage if warden has no extra spirit scaling and mo never misses even a singular pellet.
It's just such a stupid argument to make. The numbers aren't everything, there's a reason you will STRUGGLE to even find a gunmo build let alone one people run regularly or win with.

The entity known as "The Doorman" is an ancient extraplanar fledgling god and cosmic being[5][6][7] who used to slaughter and torment humans a long time ago, feeling glee at their fear and misery.[8][9][10]

At some point, the fledgling god decided to experience life on Earth disguised as a human for a few weeks, and somehow became involved with the Baroness Hotel in New York as soon as it opened.[8] He adopted the title of "The Doorman" as his name to stay grounded in his new role,[11] and enjoyed it so much that he has stayed at the Baroness ever since.

The Doorman is capable of warping reality and bending space and time.[12][13][14] He claims to be able to see the future, although it's unknown if he's bluffing about it.[15] It's implied that the Doorman weakened himself to live amongst humanity.[16][17]

The Doorman calls the Patrons "old friends" and refers to them as City Mother and Amber King.[36][37]

Both Patrons are seemingly familiar with the Doorman, with their heralds expressing surprise and joy at seeing him fighting on their behalf.[38][39] They respect the Doorman and view his murderous side as "who he was meant to be".[40]

he doesn't have to be their equal but he is basically smurfing on everyone else in the roster.

Because Valve looked at the stats and saw that 90% of matches are played in ranked (9% are meme modes)
>>
>>574048202
because the game had sub 10k players so both modes got merged
>>
>>574048202
They did have solo ranked only for a bit but then stacks couldnt beat up on solo players so they cried until valve reverted it. Solo only was god tier fun not only cause you dont fight stacks (which is perfectly fine) but because boosted retards werent at your mmr since they had to earn it all alone

In dota 90% of matches are ranked and the majority of the rest are meme modes.
They added street brawl for the casuals as there's no point in adding an unranked mode.

McGinnis is only good at one thing and thats being an annoying faggot character and supporting.
The funniest fucking thing from being in Asc to going to Alchemist is that people think the most retarded thing in the world.
It doesnt matter if you have 80% of the teams kills in assists, one random guy will see "16k" on your souls or whatever and think your borderline retarded because they think a build is the shiniest tier 4's they can buy.

My absolute favorite is telling someone why Urn 100% is not worth contesting if we're losing by a shit ton and why the only things that matter is mid boss, walkers, and base towers because we can backdoor them.
I swear the cog in their head grinds to a halt because they see shiny thing and NEED shiny thing.

Just had a game where 3/6 players on my team bought exclusively green items and just typed "greeen" in chat all game, even though no one else in the game was typing at all, was really embarrassing.

But what's so fun about losing 10% of your damage? You are down 40k. Egg isnt going to fix that. You might have won if you actually had more damage to tip some fights and with more stats you might have lost out on more than the 10% egg says. It's like just an item retards think is free scaling when it's really really not
>>
>>574057658
so many people straight up just lie about the egg damage
>oh its only weapon damage

egg is -10% damage right at the end of all your multipliers, idk why so many cope and try to say it actually doesn't impact their character.
you farm slower with egg so you end up getting less souls than it would provide, not to mention how it means certain people will get away that would have otherwise died.

egg is not completely retarded on a few heroes, it isn't good on them, its just not hilariously awful.
its really bad on everyone else though and so many people buy egg and its just like aight bro guess you ain't contributing for 30min

Pocket is exclusively referred to with they/them pronouns in game and in lore, it doesn’t matter that their voice is deep or whatever, they’re still non binary.
I say this because I myself am non binary, and I’m sick of all non binary characters getting misgendered. It’s clearly prevalent enough that this sub gives you a reminder of their pronouns when their name is used in a title or text body.
On top of this, if you know they use they/them but still use he/him (or she/her, but I haven’t seem people call them a woman before), that’s transphobic (I understand that it can be hard to adjust, but making an effort isn’t hard, and i also understand that some languages don’t have gender neutral terms)

Wraith is pretty OP too but in lane she has a harder time against characters that can just dive on her like Yamato, since your retard-proof teleport ability isn't on a short cooldown to start.
>>
>>574075393
except bebop has no movement and if you caatch him hes dead

Bebop has zero mobility so yes he can bring you to him instead of going to you. If you're playing any of the good characters right now, as in anyone with an overtuned mobility skill, you're fine.

HOW IS THERE NOT A SINGLE GOOD MATCH TRACKING SITE WHAT THE FUCK BRO
>>
>>574075881
Wraith isn't someone who can get in close easily, and Yamato's ult is one of the very few things that can counter Wraith's ult. I personally hate Wraith as a character but I will give you some honest advice anyway.
The big issue is that Ivy+Wraith is not a particularly aggressive lane against something like Mirage and Yamato, since Yamato is a tank and Mirage is obnoxiously tanky. In that kind of lane you are better off just farming as best as you can, since Wraith clears camps and objectives super easily and is nearly impossible to gank.

>>574076391
Yeah obviously you want to harass and shoot them as much as possible, but Mirage wins harassment trades usually, both of them have a lot of built-in healing so you need to try and out-sustain them. Checking to see if they're both building spirit items in lane and getting some early anti-spirit isn't a bad idea either. Wraith can benefit from Enchanter's Emblem a fair amount, it is one of the best 1600 items to pick up in general. You should probably focus on pushing the lane and then harassing them when you have multiple cards up, since neither Yamato or Mirage can push waves very well, but Ivy and Wraith can clear extremely fast with Kudzu and shooting the creeps. You should make sure Ivy is tethered to you as often as possible also, of course.

Bebop can snowball your team the hardest out if any character. If you don’t get two points into ult as early as you can, you’re playing him wrong. At 5 minutes he should be at a buff and at a lane that isn’t his securing a kill, otherwise, what the fuck are you doing on him? Hoping your double bomb is going to carry you lategame?

how does ones team collectively shit the bed this hard

the other team had billy or abrams or a russian haze on their team

Everyone loses lane and then sees that everyone else lost their lane and now their morale is raped and degraded and there's no way to come back.

Retards here will say that it’s still winnable and surrender button is not needed

>>574082503
Enemy had a fed haze/calico and your teammates were like
>time to farm jungle to come back -- oh no I got ganked
>time to farm jungle to come back -- oh no I got ganked again
ad nauseum
>>
>>574080132
slow hex doesn't prevent half of the iframe moves in the game, and silence wave is really inefficient (may as well save for curse)
>>
>>574082713
the solution? simply deathball in your own jungle and give up objectives :)
>>
>>574082728
You still dont have to go gun. You can go melee or build for ult with lightning strike + boundless

>time to farm jungle to come back -- oh no I got ganked
>time to farm jungle to come back -- oh no I got ganked again
Okay, what the fuck are you supposed to do?

>melee
proverbially threw up in my mouth
>ultbot
that's just a clunkier m1
>>
>>574082853
It's pretty hard but you just have to try and kill the enemy. There's absolutely no way you can passively farm because 1) they can gank you obviously and widen the gap 2) if you play safe enough they dont gank you then they're farming more and still widening the lead slowly

The only option is to force a fight by either charging at the person furthest out of position and hoping you can get them or by baiting a teammate for the fed person then popping out of nowhere to counter gank the fed person. If the fed person dies they have like a 30s increased respawn timer it's crazy good to put them off the map. Not to mention bonus souls.
>>574082927
Then dont play the hero with TWO melee damaging abilities if you dont like melee. Sounds like you just dont like bebop and shouldnt play him.

If you are oracle, you will never be phantom
If you are phantom, YWNBA
If you are ascendant, YWNBE
If you are eternus, YWNBE6
If you are e6, YWNBNS (you will never be a nigshifter)
If you are a nigshifter, you will never be champion
If you are champion, you won't be in the future when there's pros who actually know how to play
If you're posting from the future with pros who know how to play, you won't be on top forever

At least one of these are completely correct in any given argument by default. Therefore, no matter what your retarded opinion is, I don't care and I'm right.
I trust my own intuition more than any single nigger who plays this game.

>every couple hundred games
you just couldn't help yourself huh?
no it doesn't happen every 5 matches. but you're also completely delusional if you believe there is a soft or hard thrower every three digit game tops. maybe you should check what your team is doing more often, since you're so invested in your game surely you can afford the macro... right anon...?
