Get some stun/freeze/silence & high DPS characters and focus/burst the healers down...if it was easy people wouldn't be running that comp, but it's 100% doable. Just need your team to communicate and work together

I love Cass, she's so fun and my main also. But an equally skilled Miko, Meave, Buttercup (or other Cass) can handle her - at least push her out consistently; and any character with a stun, freeze or silence should always be keeping an eye out to hit Cass on her ult. Her ult really is brutal, but shut it down & she gets DELETED

I do agree with you though, Cass is underrated. Really good Cass players can dominate both the enemy and the map.

LF people that like to play for fun, but also want to fight as a team and play "hard" to win. My name is the same as here (EthanielRain)...add me!

Cass is my favorite/main, but I'll play anyone the team needs (although I really dislike tanks!)

Not enough Cass love IMO. A really good Cass player will dominate both fights and the map

Restarting the game worked for me, it popped as soon as I entered it again.

@SplittingBanana said in Mods rewards seem bugged:

Firstly I started by scrapping all my new mods because when you get new ones it looks like you have to press "F" to unlock the mod...

Secondly mods seemed to randomly give me all those I have already, I feel that it's too much to be bad luck, anyone else have that issue ?

Yes, I've had the level-up reward give me mods I already had. It seemed like it credited me the 50 currency for them, although I'm not 100% sure.

Cass is by far my favorite. She's fun in general & I feel like she has multiple distinct "builds" with the right mods.

I also like Maev & Kulev...Nidhoggr & Miko are ok...I don't like any of the tanks.

@EthanielRain

nidhoggrs ult doesnt do that much dmg. compare it to all the other utls. and i mean look at it. it will only take away 1/4th of their HP. the good part about his ult is that it stuns them and allows your team to dmg them.

also nidhoggr has a powerslide wich can work as his escape

maeves weakness is dive. its easy to dive her. also she wont win most 1v1s shes a reallly really good team player.

You're right about Nidhogger; I started playing him again & his ult doesn't do as much DMG as I remembered. It's pretty great anyway (as is he)

I gotta disagree about Maev, though. Invisible with a speed boost & Cage have been pretty reliable escapes; and I honestly can't remember losing a 1v1 with her ever: I run her with the Siphon Life mods (+lifesteal, +dmg, -dmg to enemy/switch out the 3rd randomly for fun)...throwing in basic attacks when possible + Cage -> Siphon Life -> Vanish to let the CD's tick a bit, repeat until dead; for me, at least, she's better in 1v1 or 2v2 scenarios because it's less likely she'll get focused down. Worst case, Invisible out to go grab a DMG buff (using Siphon on it to refill your HP).

With all that said, she isn't my main and I've only played her 15ish times. And I don't claim to have played against amazing players or to be one myself. Just that in my experience, she's amazing in 1v1 fights (and all of them, really). I just haven't experienced her having a weakness...Siphon Life is brutal, her passive is amazing, both her ults are useful/good, Cage & Invis are both great skills I guess you could say her weakness is getting stunned/froze & focused down immediately by the other team, but that's true of a lot of characters~

I assume they're using some sort of SBMM (skill based matchmaking) system, and it will improve as more days go by and people's skill stats get adjusted. I hope, anyway...

Cass Ultimate is amazing, but any kind of stun or such knocks her out of it (and then she gets chomped real fast since she'll be in the middle of the enemy team). Miko counters Cass pretty hard, can freeze her out of her Ultimate and/or use the shield. Pretty easy to take her 1v1...I've killed full HP & DMG buffed Cass's when I started with like 300 HP as Miko. Tanks are supposed to have a hard time catching up to Cass, otherwise they'd just steamroll her. Buttercup can 1v1 Cass, or at least doesn't have many issues with her.

Nidhoggr's Ultimate does too much DMG IMHO, but otherwise he seems fine. His fire has short range and his axe can be dodged, he also has limited mobility/no escapes (unlike every other DMG character).

Maev is nuts in the hands of a pro, she seems like the only character without a weakness/an answer for everything?

ZeroCool is the best healer by far, playing as him it seems pretty ridiculous to be honest. I 2v4 with him often. His heal ability needs some tweaking...the "charge/recharge" part barely matters as it stands, I'd like to see it adjusted to where you have to actually consider when & how much to heal.

This game is great, but the cosmetics/unlockables are disappointing for sure.

When you find good players, add them to your friends and play together. When you get a game with a bunch of bad players, play a character you normally don't, just for fun
