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.

New Vegas tier list (meaning we're getting a patch tomorrow). Some notes on what he said:

>Mirage needs to be removed from the game, they should use the fact that its a beta, apologize and say the character didn't pan out and just remove him
>Doorman will never be balanced because he needs individuality to be playable in pubs, but shouldn't have any because his teamplay is too strong
>Scourge is one of the reasons why so many characters like Billy, Mirage, Shiv are OP, item does too much
>Shiv will never be balanced, needs rework
>Silver has the worst playerbase in the game, she's the only character in the game where if he ranks her high he recieves multiple death threats, character still does too much
>Viscous is OP because of cube and will never stop ever being a cubebot because bad players can't parry goo punch, meaning goo punch can never be good and he's stuck in cubecuck jail forever
>Haze's current double dagger build requires no skill to play and is borderline OP
>Venator has too many stats for being a tank, also his mobilty isn't as bad as it should be, he should be a 2 stam hero that needs to buy extra stam every game
>Seven is OP if you get a team full of tempo characters like Silver/Doorman who constantly throw themselves at the enemy team to give you space, otherwise he sucks

He generally feels like hero balance has gone downhill ever since Shiv was added to the game

I think a lot of frustration comes from the fact that Haze is a very shooty character, her guns feel nice, she has a passive that rewards shooting, but for the last year the optimal way to play her has been anything but shooting. She was an ultbot for months, and now she's a daggerbot.

damn, i get being critical but does this guy have anything nice to say about anyone in the cast?

>>574281332
He does, i just didn't point it out because its kind of boring. He really likes Paige, said she's the best designed DLC hero. Said Infernus feels like he's in a really good place right now since he's actually kind of fragile and more characters should have clear weaknesses like him. Said Abrams and Dynamo are also generally pretty fair. He's just kind of frutrated by the cycle of every patch having some really OP character, and by how the community insists in spamming these OP characters every game every single game to boost their rank because most MOBA players are ego driven psychos who don't even care about having fun, which is a perspective i share with him

>>
>>574281842
He said something i found really interesting about Venator, he's a character who has everything - High damage, AoE, crowd control, good farm, good built-in anti heal and a ton of raw HP. His biggest weakness is that he has bad movement, but his movement isn't as bad as it should be. He gave Graves as an example, she's a character whose movement is so bad that she NEEDS to buy movement items every game, else she will just feed. Venator kind of just deals with it. Its his only real weakness, and it isn't even that bad. Maybe he should be a 2 stam hero honestly.

I wouldn't mind forcing venator into extra stam, I think it would make sense. but on the other he really argues that venator just has zero weaknesses...and that's not true.

>>574282360
His problem with Venator comes from two problems he has with the game overall - first, that a lot of Deadlock is just about statchcking people. You can pick characters like Venator, Mirage and Billy and just run around statchecking people all game because their stats are just to high that you will win a fight at soul parity against almost anyone. The second problem is that characters don't have a clear point in the game where they're supposed to be weak, which is something i also think is a huge problem. I mean think about it, Venator's lane is great. Venator's early-mid is great. Venator's mid-game is great, once he hits the last point in his crossbow he can genuinely 1v1 anyone in the game. And on top of that he's also a late-game carry. Its fun to have characters who can do things all game, and i understand why Yoshi wants it to be a thing, but if Spectre from Dota could fight from minute one and could solo people with no items in the midgame, she'd be absurdly broken. Almost every late game hero in this game is also an early game hero

Most pros have terrible takes because they spend the vast majority of time just grug spamming games, it’s like 5 minutes making a build then 500 hours running it down. If you vod review even a couple times you are doing more than most of them and if you read the wiki you are top 3 ez
>>
>>574282139
hes leaving out a lot there, that isn't venators only weakness.
hes very weak to anyone who gets very close to him, but if you are playing with a team who knows what venator does and can help you with that then hes crazy, but that applies to basically every hero?

venator unlike a lot of the other very tanky heroes can't really get up in peoples face and do what he wants to do and he doesn't want people up in his face
so his mobility isn't his only weakness and the reason it seems like less of a weakness for him and that he has too much is because other heroes like him NEED to get up close to function while venator doesn't want that to happen, he NEEDS to get away from people.
venator has a very narrow optimal range, but he doesn't mind being further out of it because you can still shoot with only a bit of damage loss, you can still grenade, and your ult doesn't care, so hes really good at punishing over commitment and people who need to run away.

if you made venator "need" to buy extra stam every game, all that would happen is that venator would not buy extra stam at all ever anyway and would simply require his team to do more as extra stam doesn't deal with the problem, he would just be a far weaker hero.
>>
>>574282139
>a ton of hp

does he tho
>>
>>574282946
not really
he does, but its just because he buys more greens because of not buying any purples
so if you made him buy other stuff, no, he wouldn't, and he would just be shit.
>>
Weird that venator gets all this glaze but is still reliably one of the worst performing heros in the game at every rank.
He's not super complex mechanically either so what's causing this disconnect?
>>
deadlock competitive has already fallen into the "NA pros are B tier compared to EU pros but they are extremely loud and opinionated"
>>
>>574282139
>crowd control
well his 2 is probably the most unreliable move in the game, and you can just pop his traps(which is something you would expect to happen more and more as players get increasingly competent) so he does technically have crowd control but it isn't crazy impactful. His damage is lower than the other gun characters. He's a good all rounder but I don't feel like he has a specific thing. He already has bad mobility, but one of his moves is completely relying on movement to be effective so if you make it even worse then I don't know what he's supposed to do. Also
>48% wr at eternus 6
>>
>>574283047
venator cannot 1v6 while a lot of other carry heroes can
venator needs his team so hes always going to perform worse

he benefits from taking longer fights and the items he builds reinforce this
so its just harder to carry games with him because people can just jump u and rape u regardless.


lots of the big carry heroes can't fight literally 1v6
but if your carry can't fight 1v3 and win if they are super far ahead then its really tough to carry games with them, and venator can't do that
a lot of the other carries either have the raw damage to shred people fast enough or they have aoe damage so they can take some numbers disadvantage, venator really can't and he can only really do so suuuper late game with insane items and has be really far ahead.
so he always just isn't going to have the great ranked winrate
>>
>>574283283
yeah, but vegas started to raving and ranting and squealing about how OP venator is, he must be OP
>>
>>574283095
I mean Vegas isn't even a pro player. The reason why i post his opinions here is because i like incentivizing actual discussion in the thread, and because i think his takes are interesting exactly because he isn't a pro. He's high E6 and he plays literally every single hero, he queues on random most of the time so i think he tends to have a more nuanced view while not being stuck in the pro player bubble where the game they play is so vastly different from everyone else that their opinions hardly even matter for most people
>>
>>574283047
he gets glazed cuh fr on god people think he's bussin straight fire, zoomie, because he's cool. that's all. he performs worse because he doesn't have a fuck you i'm outta here button or a 6 man instant 10 second stun ult or anything like half the roster
>>
>>574283047
>one of the worst performing heros in the game at every rank.
Thats because 9/10 times you are getting "tradcath martinez9332" or "conqistador jose8" going 0/6 in lane. God i wish there was region locked servers.

>>
>>574283047
I think people play him wrong fundamentally, and I include the e6 guy who’s mechanically gapping everyone

The thesis everyone runs is “carry” but then they build a bunch of weapon damage and get outscaled by fire rate. He’s also dive bait to any competent team. I think he’s a 2nd carry at best, also literally no one leverages his pure damage for tank busting, it’s just focus the squishy like everyone else
>>
>>574283741
a consistent lack of roles is what makes a lot of thoughts like this not super relevant.
venator would work very much like a mid does in dota, where you kind of just be really active all game and make plays, scale well but not really the main carry

depending on the exact character they bring different things
but venator just isn't super functional as a carry, but very often you just need to play the carry because of the rest of your lineup and its the most reliable way to play him
you can't pick him because your opponents have a lot of tanks and you want to try to play him as a tank buster with pure damage and land lots of disruption, cc, and debuffs
>>
>>574283694
just don't align yourself with a wall? you never want to push him into tight spaces, that's his territory. also
>if you're a pixel away from the impact box nothing happens even if the player model collides into the wall at mach speed
the move is very, very unreliable. this part I really don't understand, you're not allowed to go for a guaranteed melee heavy after getting a wallstun even though the final upgrade to 2 clearly wants you to do that, you need to get superior duration to get it to reliably work. Abrams for example has no such problem.
>>
>cant convey to teamate to not run away, I can heal them without getting reported
>cant convey to teamates that I have barriers, area denial, arctic blast and echo shard healing without getting reported
>cant convey to my teamates that they should push with the numbers, soul, and rejuv advantage without getting reported
Its weird that people unironically play this garbage
>>
>>574284165
the biggest problem isn't even the consistency of it
its that a lot of the time even if you land the wall stun and could melee you usually would rather do something else, such as just shoot them in the head, or ult them in the head
so its just like wtf is the point of this?
>>
generally the games of venator I win follow a pretty clear pattern, destroy lane > start roaming early > roll the game > win at 30 minutes
if I fall behind, usually it's over or I just get carried
>>
>>574284040
I’m pretty sure ignoring the pure dmg just makes him worse, valve surely has some sort of power budget and pure dmg is valued higher than regular damage. What I mean is If it was regular dmg it would have higher values and you are trading it for the utility of ignoring resistances
>>
>>574284286
if its like dota reporting literally does nothing

>>574284372
that's a number tuning thing at that point, but it's clear you're meant to melee after a wallstun once 2 is maxed right. So if it's too weak to compete with the other options they need to pump up the damage. But then, you're taking a massive gamble that they won't just mash F and you get parried, which usually means instant death late game (when you'd have his 2 maxed) so yes, you may as well never take the risk and just shoot them while they're standing still. the inconsistency is a major issue because you could make the melee hit literally execute from any hp % and you'd still have the same issue that you can't take your wallstun melee hit without investing in superior duration, even if its a one-shot you're still taking the gamble that they won't parry frame 1 and then you most likely die. The unreliable 2 is the only thing I would change about the character. That actually feels terrible and makes it so you don't even lean into what the move is trying to get you to do.

The complete inverse of Silver.
>>
>>574284040
>a consistent lack of roles
The thing I don't get is, is the game's community basically on strike against the concept of roles? It's really, really clear that the game is not playing optimally if there's not a guy running around cycling all the camps, and it's also clear that some characters will just scale better than others. So why aren't there established roles by now? A couple months in I thought "game's too new" but it's been like 2 years at this point, I would have imagined some order/soul priority system to have come up by now.

>>
>>574285731
yes I agree with this. It's not surprising to see such a difference in wr if you look at eternus stats. I remember my friend just running in 1v4 and actually killing 2, then she got nerfed and he never adapted his play style, he keeps trying to do that, it no longer works and he's actually gotten to a point where if he plays the character he considers just not leveling the wolf because that'd force him to use it. it seriously seems like silver players do not consider "what would be reasonable of the character to do", they want to pop wolf, go in and kill a bunch. that's it.

Fuck I missed the bulk of the Venator discussion. I've posted a couple times in here about one tricking assassin Ven and I pretty much agree with the sentiment in here.
He's got a generally good kit but it's nothing spectacular compared to other gun carries so he doesn't fit that playstyle...which people force anyways hence the horrible winrates/stats. I feel like he shines as a lane bully and roamer which also happens to synergize best with the way he wants to build, which is exclusively weapon bonus and greens to fill slots.
Someone mentioned superior duration and I gotta say it's easily my favorite purple on him, with slowing hex being the runner-up.
As for shotgun jank, I haven't had a big issue with it and I feel like it's just part of the learning curve. There's been many frustrating whiffs but when I review the replay it usually ends up being my fault. I don't get the parry issue either, I think I've been hit with a preemptive parry twice (in lane with T0 gutshot) in ~150 games. Proper spacing gives you confirms with T0 and T2 gives consistency to 99% of your hits.
Play Shadow Weave Venator.

Sub 200 games iirc. Sorry to burst the bubble of EOMM believers but it really is just a skill issue.
I've got a lot of hours spent playing third person shooters, valve games, and mobas. LoL was my biggest skill builder, where I was close to Challenger (top 300) one tricking a truly horrible character.
My advice to anyone like (you) who thinks it's mossad and valve working against you, record your games or watch the replays. Or just, you know, have fun with deadlock because its fun

the truth is that he’s right about a lot of retarded balance decisions especially pertaining to tanks like shiv, silver, venator, etc.

I don't get why all the "pros" treat Silver like this boogeyman, whenever she gets picked in Night Shift she goes negative 4 out of 5 times

If Silver was a dude or was made to look like McGinnis, there would've been fewer post balance discussions, no reddit would make a cult out to promote anything lesbian, the nerfs would've been more severe because trannies would not play the hero and tank the WR. They don't play or like McGinnis for le lore reason, when it's evident cuz she doesn't look like Silver or Mina.

The best rats in the game are wraith, vyper, gun mcginnis sorta, and by far the best in terms of burst ratting Sinclair.

cuz the enemy team orients 3-4 heroes around the silver pick nowadays, which isnt even possible to do consciously outside of night shift

>>574296749
The hero does a lot of damage while being a tanky frontliner and also a pick hero with slowing hex built into its kit, it's a braindead pick/ban in the same way Doorman is because he does 1 million damage while having cross-map teleports for himself, his team, and enemies and a way to just lock an enemy hero out of a fight.

In higher elo games Seven mostly just flash farms and has a competent team babysitting him and giving him space to come online. The character himself is very weak to pick characters like Calico though, so he’s fairly draft dependent. If you just nerf jungle seven’s winrate will crater because the guy has terrible hp and his only defensive ability is to be able to kill you first.

Did they change something with how this game is optimized recently?
Past month or so I've noticed extreme stuttering in game. Its not all the time, but its about once every 2 minutes or so I'll just get a massive chug. Everything locks in place for about a solid second and then catches up.
Was just monitoring performance on just task manager, nothing fancy and noticed the CPU would just dip down during this as well, but this does not occur on any other game I play.
Restarting the game fixes this issue, but if I do not restart between every single queue, its basically a 100% chance that issue is going to occur on the next game.

Because you can kill people before your stun even goes off if you build fat damage. The threat of the stun is sometimes better than actually stunning. The delay also makes dispel magic/counterspell hard counter echo shard seven 2 way harder than most other CC in the game. It was popular for a bit but it’s too slow for an item that doesn’t help you farm or fight. For 6400 you could just get spirit burn or escalating or surge and ballistic and suppressor instead and go deathball
>>
>>574305395
lmao you have issues
>>
>>574302864
its only an aoe stun if the person you put it on runs into their team for no reason
>>
>>574305603
the whole point of echo sharding it is so they have to either dispel the first one or eat it
>>
>>574305835
or just buy something like boundless and shoot them to death without having to rely on your stun and echo shard being off cooldown
>>
>>574305835
Seven is a squishy piece of shit so if your strategy is to stun someone after you’ve been on their ass for 6 seconds I think what you have there is 2/11/6 on the post match screen.

Playing support is not an excuse for having low damage.
Objective damage doesn't matter, at all, you get objectives after wiping the enemy, splitting is mostly a meme.
If you're lady geist and you're not highest damage you're an embarrassment.
Half the characters now and henceforth will be m1 spammers because they're the easiest to design and balance
The other half are nerfed so hard because if they're good the game stops being fun to play.

The "balancing" from the developers is literally just rotating the same characters being OP for the same reason as before.

also the strength of it is that you can apply it to the target you think you can kill in lane and drop it on them before they grab any heal minion.

it's also DISGUSTING for roams early game and sets up your tempo VERY nicely.

This statement is absurd. He is covering the literal entire lifetime of the game as it has existing in a playtesting state with a population base above a couple hundred players. If his anecdotal impression of balance means anything, it means that balance was *never* good and it took actually opening it up to an actually meaningfully large enough sample size to see it clearly.

it still utterly rapes Vyper/Haze, both of which have 0 counterplay to it now given curse has that disgusting penalty now.

hex is good for chasing down, cancelling movement abilities/items. but the anti grav and the dash distance are massive for landing stoneforms early.

you would certainly want healbane but you'd want siphon in there because it's the other piece of the pie that makes gun ivy even remotely a thing. surely maxing tether and popping a casual swift striker is a way better use of money? as for spirit given that your bullet damage sucks is it even worth taking bullet resist shredder? I'd imagine suppressor + superior duration would be the play.

Im not so much getting the brs for myself, it’s more to apply with capacitor in team fight, I was thinking about siphon but as addition to heal tempo to keep it maxed but decided there is too much overlap with stone form heal and a potential nova. Suppressor is pretty good because it plays into the capacitor debuff thing with healbane/brs but it’s just not as appealing as brs as a blanket debuff. Swift striker is not enough firerate to satisfy my autism, the soft cap for capacitor lighting is 20 bullets person second which means +42% for ivy, heal tempo covers most and the rest I can box for

I don’t really like planning much farther ahead than 24k because it’s very game dependent at that stage, I might need to go gun because my carry is 2-14 or I might need to heal max, it just depends

his point on venator is that his lack of mobility doesn't justify the rest of his bloated stats, and it can't really be that big of a downside if venator never actually has to buy any mobility items, even getting away with buying items that make it worse (see: weighted shots). the same can't be said about equally immobile heroes like graves and silver in which you're actively throwing by not buying horses/stamina mastery

SEVENSU MOON WOGAWARAGAWAWARA!
>>
>>574310768
neither of them are wrong anon
silver is extremely strong

she just doesn't carry games and a fed cracked silver isn't going to win a game without her team, she isn't a 1v6 type hero
shes bad at taking buildings, bad at a fast rejuv, bad at pushing, so when your team is failing in a lot of areas you can't just carry them and cheese the game.

look at someone like seven who is "bad" but has a massive winrate
hes really good at dueling
really good in fights
really good at killing an entire team
really good at pushing
really good at taking objectives quickly and punishing opponent mistakes
if seven gets out of control he just wipes your team and all your buildings off the map by himself, he doesn't need anyone else to skull fuck your team to death and he doesn't need anyone else to do the things he can't

seven is a better hero for carrying games so hes going to have a higher winrate, and this before you even talk about silver needing to snowball vs farm while someone like seven can have a more consistent gameplan by just farming well and having more reliable power spikes and a more reliable gameplan.

a lot of people get bent out of shape by winrate and when you try to point out winrate isn't the only measure of strength they say
>but it obviously is!!!
>since its their ability to win games!!!
>which is the goal of the game
>it includes everything they can do to win a game
but they fail to understand that "the ability to win a game" really means "the ability to influence the outcome of a match" which when you are playing with random people does not mean the strength of the character, just their ability to influence matches
which can be very different in organized play as an obvious example

but a character can be insanely strong but not win very many games because they lack the ability to influence the outcome due to being very strong and oppressive in a narrow area.
like imagine a lane dominator so strong anyone who lanes against them immediately loses and is insanely far behind for the rest of the match, but can't rotate to do this to more lanes, can't scale, and can't really do much.
they are insanely strong, but many teams will still easy beat them because they have more than 1 scaling hero and just shutting down 1 lane isn't an auto game win, even if its an insanely busted strong thing to be able to do and shouldn't exist in the game. But it isn't good at winning individual matches in uncoordinated play so its not very good? thats absurd

silver is really strong imo
but shes not good at winning games, so you can kind of just ignore her and shes irrelevant to the outcome of a match most of the time.

Holy cope, if your winrate sucks then you objectively are not impacting the outcome of the match


A lot of you guys got brain broken by the winrate doesn’t matter narrative, it is the only thing that matters, it just needs context. For example Mina winrate low but if you look at some pros you have 70% winrate. Winrate is still the the only thing you just have to look at it correctly
>>
>>574359284
Yeah the same thing applies to Apollo, he is aids in lane and auto steamrolls for the first 10 minutes but then he becomes a joke
Every single carry needs to be taken out back and shot in terms of laning
You should expect your team-mate Seven, Wraith, Infernus or Venator to go 0/3 in lane but improve the longer the game goes on. Not rape the enemy team from minute 1
>>
why does yamato need to have 6k hp with two 1600 green items
>>
>>574360049
so you can't read, thanks for telling us all.
winrate doesn't determine strength of a character
but if your goal is to climb then you should obviously pick high winrate heroes?
are you playing in anything but solo matchmaking? no? then why the fuck are u even trying to comment on this?
are you retarded? don't answer, it was a rhetorical question but I know I need to spell it out for you since you are retarded and can't read.

>>574360084
yeah a lot of characters are just weirdly balanced rn and its obviously because the hasn't settled into a meta
a lot of players simply are very resistant to the idea of certain heroes having roles and playing to those roles, flexibility in characters is a good thing, but you need to understand what your hero does and what he brings to the team so you can understand what needs to be bought to fix the holes your team has.
I expect once you can actually pick characters to see a lot more understanding of this and how to make an actual team comp, right now its just w/e
lots of games are like this for many years though before people figure out how to build teams

The Doorman thing is 100% true. Doorman will never be balanced simply because the doors are genuinely the best ability in the entire game in a competitive setting, bar none. The ability to move your entire team across the map instantly is just absurd in a coordinated setting. The only way to make it balanced is by having the rest of his kit be mediocre so he needs to rely on his team, but then he becomes a very bad hero in non-competitve settings where you can't rely on your team for coordinated door plays.

Oh it’s a imaginary collective, he doesn’t realize he is alone in his idiocy

Logical issues in the argument:

1. Straw man – Mocks the opposing view (”!!!”) instead of engaging its strongest form.
2. Undefined key term / equivocation – “Strength” is never defined, just gestured at via example, while accusing others of conflating “winning” with “influencing outcomes.”
3. Begging the question – Redefining “ability to win” as “ability to influence outcomes” is asserted, not argued — it smuggles the conclusion into the premise.
4. Hasty generalization – A single invented hypothetical (the lane dominator) is used to establish a general principle, but one example built to fit the conclusion can’t prove it.
5. Unfalsifiable claim – “Strong but doesn’t win” has no independent test if strength isn’t tied to any measurable outcome — it can absorb any counterexample.
6. Non-sequitur – “Silver is really strong… so she’s irrelevant to outcomes” doesn’t follow; being irrelevant to outcomes is evidence against strength, not for it.
7. Bare assertion as evidence – “Silver is really strong imo” is just opinion, but it’s used as if the earlier framework already justified it.

They could balance it by making the doors only able to be used a certain number of times. Like say, 4. Going in EITHER door counts as 1 use, so Doorman himself can go in and out of the same door 4 times and then it breaks, or he can have 4 teammates go through the door in one direction and it breaks, and so on.

Of course this would require doing something besides making 1% adjustments to Shiv and Pocket or nerfing Warden's gun by another 50% instead of actually balancing the game, so that isn't happening

if you want to climb ranks and learn deadlock fundamentals with these characters, just find a build that focuses on maximizing spirit damage with their 1
But that isn't the most fun way to play any of those characters

Also remember to not just run away from every fight, (even when it's so easy on those characters). You can kill, sometimes

Reminder to all our lol and ow refuges

The games you came from are fake games, products for pay piggies where competitive integration is subordinate to monetization. They are like Disney land or a cardboard town from the Wild West, closed circuit loops designed for bing bing wahoo dopamine spikes. The owl collapsed within 1 year of blizzard funding cut, now a shallow shell of its former self. Lcs recently boasted about its “highest roster diversity tournament ever” with the fearless draft mechanically forcing players to pick a whooping 55% of the roster(dota was at 85% for the same period)


But you are one of the lucky ones. In your hard stuck stupor you’ve stumbled into a valve game. Esl, pgl, and blast all run majors independently. There is crowdfunded prize pools, that’s organic babe. The publisher is the supplement, not the subsidy.

That’s because underneath it all, game is good, and that’s what it’s all about. Don’t take it for granted
>>
>>574375732
The first batch also included two of the most AIDS designs in the entire game, Victor and Mina, and Doorman really isn't all that impressive or cool, he's just overpowered and obnoxious. Maybe redditors were creaming themselves over doorfag, but I never saw that here.
>>574375826
See my previous post >>574375175 to explain why the game is in such a sorry state and has no chance of coming back unless they rework almost the entire game, and they are sure not going to do that because they are lazy and incompetent.

Icefrog's retarded balancing philosophy is ruining Deadlock just like it ruined Dota. The concept of 'make everyone OP so nobody is OP!' doesn't work when characters like Victor, Wraith, Shiv, and Pocket are intentionally made braindead overpowered and nobody else is brought up to that level ever.

>>574379321
The same reason they haven't reworked any of the other broken characters like Shiv, Kelvin, Victor, Doorman, and Mina. The devs are simply incompetent. That's why we get patches that consist of stuff like 'reduced shiv's bleed scaling by .001' and 'removed 1 bullet from Victor's magazine' and 'Increase Affliction cooldown by 10 seconds'
>>
>>574379382

Please understand, we are figuring out how to make Shiv even more overpowered and obnoxious, as well as Victor too, he simply isn't in a good enough state.
Also we are rolling dice to figure out how much to nerf Warden's gun further.
>>
>>574379754

If they want to make warden some weird sprit tank that barley builds gun buff his shield and its spirit scaling (and the spirit scaling on the rest of his abilites) and increase his base health
>>
>>574380115
>increase his base health
Warden players think they deserve to live lmao
why don't we give him full immunity to all damage on his ult since you just want a easy mode.
>>
>>574380115
They should reduce wardens shield cooldown by 5 seconds
>>
>>574380115
His shield should do something actually interesting besides make him move slightly faster. Debuff resistance is a meme stat since all the good debuffs are stackable which makes the duration of the debuff not really matter.
Why not make his shield ridiculously overpowered and stupid like Celeste's shield? Make it slow or silence or stun everyone around him when it gets depleted or ends.

The claw is always going to remain mediocre so long as the good part of it is locked behind tier 5, and it just gets countered entirely by two of the most busted tier 3 green items (counterspell and dispel magic) so you can't even lock someone down.

I think Deadlock might end up being studied by people as an example of how badly you can fuck up a game in such a short period of time. It's like they have actually ignored EVERY single problem the game has and instead focused on tiny number adjustments to heroes that are fundamentally flawed like Shiv and Pocket and Celeste.

There are some characters that require mechanical skill but they usually get nerfed, meanwhile none of the movement bugs get fixed and trannies demand they are made into 'mechanics' that enable people to ignore the entire stamina system.

what if im in the air when he shoots?
do I just accept that im gonna get chunked like hell?
>>
>>574389140
No, Hollidayfag, your character isn't hard and you also were just statchecking people and she deserved to get nerfed.

they need to delete graves and paige from streetbrawl

>>574389249
dude I fucking hate holliday and celeste, they're faggot characters for people who think the epitome of skill is abusing bugs in the movement system

why do people still play this game man. Even I am getting bored of just logging on into the same pubs and I actually win games and rank up. You’re telling me 95% of playerbase still plays this dogshit stale game below human elo in July 2026?? Fucking give this retarded niggerbaboon yoshi a lesson and drop the game without patches

Holliday is just an ultbot now as her 3 is useless, even in brawl where it scales 2,5 instead of 1,1 –it's barely useable

>>574388760
I've watched a dev of a decades old series go from having their playerbase laugh when they told them to fuck off and being defended for releasing training mode features as paid DLC to being openly hated and considered incompetent over the course of a few months with people genuinely upset when their mains got buffed and demanding they revert it.

>"ehrm, like, tell me what's the problem with going pillow rem cuz"
The only damage you do comes from tankbuster and the recharge on pillows is astronomically slow as a result of the fact they reduce the cooldown on your other abilities on hit.
Also not filling out your active bar with utility and not slapping echo shard on Tag along is a massive waste of his tag along potential since actives get a hefty buff while using tag along.
>"didn't listen, muted and reported"
niggers should be hanged
>>
>>574388936
that's the tradeoff for not having a consistent way to deal spirit damage (unlike all the other m1ggers in this game for some reason).
>>
>>574389730
Hey, hold on anon, they added the RIFT, isn't it so cool to be forced to do an urn teamfight except it also results in a free walker for the winning team, turning into a snowball advantage of nearly 10k?
Just listen to the cool and mystical music!!

not if I keep getting niggers like him which in shitlow there are numerous.
KYS you dishonest nigger and learn how elo works
>>
>>574390601
He's the only balanced m1 character in the game so it makes people seethe when someone gets good with him, and he doesn't have any retarded movement bullshit either.
>>574390714
Mina is an obnoxious character design and should be reworked. Any character with a passive that is just 'do more damage for shooting people' needs to be reworked and lose the passive.
>>
Thinking winrates tell the entire story when it comes to game balance is a genuine sign of low IQ and is the main reason why so many competitive games fall into extremey unfun balance patterns. You will never have a perfect 50% winrate on every character, what matters is if that character feels fair to play against, and you can't tell that from winrates.
>>
>>574389602
>The bolt travels very slowly
kek, maybe in the bizarro world
>>
>>574390873
That's the issue though, like half the cast of deadlock doesn't feel fair or fun to play against at this point.
>>
>>574390840
i like her design: midrange that benefits from taking short poke trades before scaling and going in for the kill, no other character has this they're either midrange fighters, divers, or some type of support
she was too strong and now she's clearly too weak, there are many ways to fix her with basic damage scaling, more ammo, etc. not a complete skill rework
>>
>>574390873
no, no, no, that isn't how it works
I use winrates when it aligns with the argument I am trying to make.
Otherwise I be a sane person and understand that it only tells a part of the picture.

I am allowed to have it both ways, okay?
>>
Ivy is a better Vindicta
Grey Talon is a better Vindicta
Venator is a better Vindicta
and im tired of pretending shes not the most useless character in the game, the state shes in is abysmal
>>
Using winrates in an argument is jeetcoded
Just like salesposting
>>
>>574390873
Matchmaking and mmr ruined competitive games more than anything else. All these retards care about is the badge and/or number next to their name so they will only play what is optimal to increase the number and if you suggest something suboptimal they will seethe at you endlessly. No one plays anything for fun anymore. I can see my dotabuff history from 2011 when dota 2 was in beta and I played like 15 games a day just trying shit out because I had no clue what I was doing, but I was having fun. Way more fun than I have now with that game in Immortal lobbies.

>>574390339
phantom is around average skill so seems fine to me
>>
>>574381972
The trannies are in for a rude awakening when the game leaves alpha and normal people come it and are their worst nightmares.
Once the game releases all these weirdos will get filtered out.
>>
>>574390435
comparing the t1 upgrade that doesn't even proc after full fix to afterburn and wraith steroid that gives her infinite ammo and isn't shut down by plated for some reason is certainly a take. a retarded take, but certainly a take.
>>
>>574390435
>Fixation exists and isn't even an active ability like Wraith's stupid full auto, it's just always on
She gets like four bursts of spirit damage through fixation until it wears off again and even a very spirit heavy build for her has each do less than 200 damage. I don't know why people here act like it's Infernus afterburn or Wraith full auto except assuming they literally have never touched the character to even know what she actually does.
>>
>>574390339
phantom ain't too high of a rank at all, so you're just starting out at the beginner level
>>
What do I do when I'm playing a support char and my team won't stop running it down while I'm fixing lanes? Feel kinda helpless watching waves slowly creep up on base and I can't do anything because it's 1v the fucking Avengers. Also have way too many instances of me pushing a lane past where walker would be and then 3 rapists jump out of the shadows to kill me
>>
>>574391623
>>574391790
>haze downplayers ignoring the fact that the dagger itself applies 15 stacks on top of dealing several hundred damage on it's own, resulting in well over a thousand spirit damage just from throwing the daggers and shooting someone like 5 times
>>
>>574390339
You can get placed????
I had to start at initiate and had to climb - slowly- to phantom over 100 or so matches
Bear in mind I was eternus when i stopped playing 2 years ago so this was frustrating
