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.

so how does votes work
do they just discard the other 3 options and never bring them up again
why is there a vote

cant they add all 4 options to the game?

New Violet character backstory idea

>She is a graphic designer by trade (large contingent of boring West coast Asian women are graphic designers, +1 for them)
>She makes ads and signs for money, but her passion is making political posters for causes she supports (+1 for boring Asian women)
>Throw in whatever crap you want about white kids saying her lunch smells bad, Asian parents making her play piano, trying to escape from working at the family restaurant, white men fetishizing tight wet Asian pussy, whatever (infinite +1s for boring Asian women)
>The paranormal/supernatural aspect of her character is that she is trained in the East Asian shamanic/Buddhist discipline of placing magic seals on paper (fulu/ofuda/bujeok) (like her 3 ability)

And then get a VA who isn't forcing herself to do an Elizabeth Holmes voice. Don't do an anime voice either. Just sound like a typical boring West coast Asian woman. They will love it.

>>584890495
she sits so far away that shooting her isn't a real option, knockdown is countered with dispel/counterspell/indom
the only real threat is phantom strike since indomitable doesn't work against it but it's usually very telegraphed so you can counterspell it
the hard part is shooting people from far away as they move and dash all over the place but you get so much dps to make up for missed shots

The problem is hiring artists who exclusively consume anime. They get jobs based on their concept art. It is very technically proficient and visually appealing, and they work very efficiently with fast turn around times. These people take over the art departments and then get control of the storylines, settings, and characters.

If you ask these people to write a story or develop a character, they cannot. They have not read great works of literature, they have not seen classic films, they don't listen to good music, they have not even seen and studied foundational paintings and sculptures. They have only watched anime and got really really good at fanart figure drawing on their Wacom tablets. Nothing informs their world view other than a form of media with the most surface level and purile stories imaginable. Sometimes there isn't even really a story, anime can exist just for fan service and for the community to make porn from the characters.

Absolute TRVKE of a post.
It is the fandom-pandering industrial complex. Fandom people get good at fanfiction and fanart and get jobs to produce more pandering material for fandom.
You can tell when the peak of the literary references they can come up with is Wuthering Heights, and their characterization for a supposed artist character is

>>
>>584888653
Nah, his Ult would send her to a suite with infinitely respawning Gold Statues and Sinners, a shop with reduced prices, and an exit door that lets her reappear anywhere in the map. There's no time limit on how long she can stay there and she can pause the game for everyone but her.

How much longer until he solves this game?
>>
The only evil one is the rat and he's a joke character. They tried to subvert the expectations with Baba so she's just a bland old lady now. It makes no sense making Solomon a tactical genius with no actual goal to achieve, he should be an evil mastermind but since he's black he can't be anything but morally good. Violet is obviously somebody's self-insert so any nuance is out of the table and they probably didn't want to make another asian girl evil since Mina is already in the game. Danny is also a joke character, makes no sense making him evil too.

Even if they did, you have to keep in-mind that their writing is pandering to people that don't play the game at all. That's why they're willing to remodel the map twice while ignoring the fact Celeste was totally unaffected by slows for over a year. One gets social media attention from nogames, the other is something only people that play the game will care about.

Assuming it isn't just a case of different writers once the cat is out of the bag it's hard, if not impossible, not to let your audience influence your work. They give you ideas and input and even if you just casually glance at them every once in awhile you're still processing stuff they say. And even if you were to not be online as much as we know everyone is you still would get via osmosis how people love certain things and do more of those. The interesting thing is whether they'll double down as petty revenge for people not liking Violet or over coursecorrect and the next batch will be super boring because they're afraid of being called the new Violet.

The most generous reading I can make of it genuinely is that Valve writers are intentionally making Violet an Asian artoid femoid with parental angst to make her maximum self insert slop and maximally marketable on purpose to capture that audience and just kinda relegate her to the back of the bus in terms of plot importance. Just totally intentional playing to the crowd while otherwise having the rest of the work be as creatively independent as they normally would be for every other character.

Asians in Asia don't like her because she's the insufferable second gen coastal Asian American immigrant stereotype they hate.

They're not mentioned. Her powers are never brought up in her bio. I'm pretty sure they don't come up in conversations either. She is just an artist, who has magical art powers so that she can stand her ground in the ritual. That's the only reason why they exist. They are not a part of her narrative.

they should make violet racist towards ixians, but inadvertently. like she tries so hard to seem politically correct with them that it loops around. her voiceline where she apologises to abrams to clarify she’s has nothing against ixians is unintentionally the most memorable line of dialogue she has for me just cause nobody else does that

She is an artist. She is a really good artist. However, she is still worried that she will never be recognised as a good artist, even though she's got her art in a world famous museum already. So she's going through the ritual to make sure that her art gets real exposure (because being featured in a world famous museum apparently doesn't count) so that it can be judged for its merits. That's why she's going through the ritual, to get eyes on her art.

Not kidding. That's her bio, paraphrased.

That's an extremely retarded strategy if it was true. They just could have an attractive Asian chick who isn't a total butch. Juno and Anran of Overwatch already sell as much of not more than Kiriko by virtue of being hotter and more likeable than her.
Violet is already pretty, we already have our hot Asian mean girl, they just needed to give her a personality that isn't just "Twitter". People would complain and call her goonbait but let's not pretend plenty of that people also wildly fapa to Luna Snow ganbangs and Juno anal.

And a couple hundred years ago, or even today in some less developed parts of the world, it's still normal to rape people.

I think my main issue with Violet's writing is that I can't figure out if the game wants us to know she's a bad person. The game seems to treat her like a spunky underdog when she's a shit. Rem feels more mature sometimes.

why mina good but violet bad?

I feel like Calico is non-existent lategame. She's an assassin that can't assassinate, and my games always go to full builds on both sides. How do I work around this? Is there a build that will actually allow me to kill people instead of getting outdamaged and out-tanked by ostensible supports past minute 20? I'll be 12/0 just after laning, is it a matter of forcing the win before it becomes that bad?
>>
>>584902809
This is the issue with developer pet characters. They emit a Lobotomy Field around them which lobotomizes every other character in the game and stops them from correctly reacting to their attitude.
Violet could be a damn fine heel if she got called out for it but she isn't, they play it completely straight

This may be character specific, but the backline usually does more damage than I do in my burst even with landing all my abilities. Paige for instance just blasts me away after only taking about 50% damage unless I use my ult. Again, this is really more a lategame situation, early/mid game that's exactly my plan.

It doesn't really have much of a skill ceiling, it's just flat out overpowered and uninteractive. They somehow managed to powercreep McGinnis's wall.

McNiggis wall is much better than Violet 1. Violet gives up her strongest spell to paint a little gay doodle that dies to one heavy melee, meaning she can't hit her 1 to reset the rest of her kit, which is what she's built around. It's also her most damaging spell.

I didn't make the mod, and I don't think there is any way to modify Violet's voice to be good outside of telling an AI to redo every single one of her voice lines but she talks like Terry Crews or something.
>>584905310
I posted the Silence Violet mod on Reddit and it got deleted in literally two minutes, they are on GIGA damage control there for culture war reasons of course, even though this is easily the worst character ever added to ANY Valve game ever. Imagine if they added a character like Violet to TF2 as the tenth class, there would be an uproar over it.
Her very existence in Deadlock drags the game down both gameplay and setting wise, her whole kit is just more AOE slop press 4 to win midboss/rift shit.

He's shamelessly edgy and has no redeeming qualities in the sense that he is genuinely just purely evil for his own sake. It makes him entertaining as a result. Violet feels like she is here because Sweet Baby Inc. told her that she needs to be the game's rep for 2026 asian art hoes or something.

There's no way they're changing Violet because she's asian and bisexual, most of her defenders are both out one of those.
Mina and Paige might be the only straight women in the game (attractive at least Baba doesn't count) and they get paired by redditors so much that Valve might make them queer as well. Vyper is based bisexual, Violet just feels performative and cringe.

Her magic all being just paint strokes is so hilariously bad.

Imagine if Paige's spells were all just paper tornadoes. Her Bookwyrm is just a paper wave that leaves paper on the ground. Her shield remains as just a book. Her immobilize is a bunch of papers in a circle. Her ult is a bunch of papers moving really fast in a line.

Thats Violet.

he's barely in the top 40% of max health at max boons, and everyone in his health bracket has some combination of sustain, mitigation, or escape, while venator has NONE of those. tankiness is not just "how big health bar"

For the first day r*ddit was full of criticism for Violet, actual constructive critique, shitposts, universally panned reception
Then jannies went on full lockdown mode and delete and lock any criticism of Violet now
The only posts now allowed are
>those that downplay/minimize "the deadlock setting was never good anyway"
>posts that blame other characters "erm we have an ACME skeleton and you complain about Violet? Lash and Silver and Victor and etc. are also poorly written. Why do you care?"
>posts that complain about people who criticize Violet "those TOXIC VIOLET HATERS are ruining Deadlock, they're all incel gamergaters"
>mild criticism of Violet if and only if it has a dozen disclaimers "before I start I want to say I love Violet and I understand she is an important representation for oppressed folx and I am an artist and my gf is Asian and-"

you know valve doesnt control the subreddit right? thats just the mods being pissy and power trippy

Gonna be honest violet being added to the game, regardless of how she plays or is as a character kinda ruined the game for me. It seems the people that actually wanted that character are some of the worst people known to man and make games extremely unfun to play win or lose.

>>584910795
Her lane is pretty good once you get the hang of painting, but her ult, surprisingly, has too many weird bugs and really isn't that good. For instance, the silence doesn't interrupt dynamo ult but clips the effect radius.

Tldr, not strong enough for the meta-maxing ladder climbers. For the LARPERs, well then there's the bio. OTOH I've been seeing less Solomon players so that also begs the question of who the fuck plays her.
