@ShadoWawker said in 3 out of last 5 games have been losses in progress.:
@HammerxOfxLight If you left a match then you get put into games in progress. If you didn’t leave a match and this happened then there is a major problem
I personally get into new games every time because i never leave matches
That’s false information. I never leave games either. If you have leaver status u get put in with leavers. It has nothing to do with games in progress
44-1 power cells when I get in the match, 46-1 and a 300-60 objective control. This is unacceptable
Found the Maeve main... lol.
She has too much damage in an easy to hit combo and she’s too safe.
Schadenfreude is the real issue imo. The resets on that busted combo wins team fights pretty easily.
I play with this guy who mains her and he has a 22 k/d on her. The amount of damage she can do safely is way to good.
Buttercup has too much in her kit too though. I think she’s the most busted character of them all.
Bastardo is fine. He’s countered hard by Nidhogger. Nidhogger is fine since he can be kited pretty easily since he has no verticality. If they nerf tanks across the board he’ll be too strong. He needs to be strong rn cause he’s the only tank buster in the game.
The problem with healers is actually a problem with dps. If you are constantly attacking and pushing the right targets for positioning and range the healers have to exhaust resources. If u just spend all fight chasing heals and getting kited and focused cause you’re out of position you’re probably going to lose. Healers have cool downs and Zerocool’s beam weakens The longer it’s active. When dps stops doing damage to chase healers win fights. You’re better off damaging other targets as a 4 man than running around letting healers cds come up.
And I disagree with not focusing the tank. If they’re grossly out of position they’re either gonna die or pull the healer into a compromised position and then u can switch target to healer. I put a post on the Reddit demostrating this concept a few days back. But generally focusing the tank is not the best idea
She’s one of the three chars I force out of fights immediately. The other 2 being Cass and daemon. Schadenfruede will wreck the team so if you take a gizmo and put some dps in on her to blow vanish then you just send your melee dps in for the kill
This is a game where you have to learn how to play many characters and help your teammates. You can’t just pick bastardo every game when your team picks gizmo Maeve and zero. You’re probably not gonna be able to peel effectively. You probably shouldn’t go zero vs buttercup either. You get these people who refuse to switch characters to help the team or help themselves. It’s hard to not get frustrated with someone who has 8 deaths because they’re a daemon main but Maeve keeps caging and killing him and getting team fight winning reset chains starting with him.
Gizmo deserves to be A minimum. She’s the only true sustained ranged dps which constant consistent damage puts a huge strain on the healers, especially Zerocool because his beam weakens over time.
She has zoning potential with turrets, displacement and minor interruption with sucka, verticality with bouncer, and an ult that puts out AoE % damage.
I don’t want a role queue but I definitely want people to play the roles they pick. I can’t tell you how many games I’ve had a tank not peel healer, or a dps not do dps. That’s frustrating.
In the end I think role queue will slow down the queues and will put limits on possible metas. I think it should be open and free. The game is new and a lot of people have just been one trick ponies. That should balance out in the long run. Everyone should at least know 2 out of each role.
Switch gizmo and Cass and move bastardo up to A
Are you fighting nidhogger? He counters u pretty hard. You kinda gotta avoid him, I personally don’t like him as a solo tank. It’s hard to peel your team when you’re constantly needing to be attacking to live. You want to be mashing x from the time the fight starts until it stops. And if they group up that’s shields for days
@Omid-RG he’s strong but I wouldn’t call him op. He has no verticality to chase people like gizmo and zero. He’s really the only char that counters bastardo. Maybe Cass too? He’s super predictable both attack and ability wise. Boomitar is easy to dodge. His attack chain is slow. He’s like daemon in the fact you can’t just let him in the backline to run free or he’ll kill your team.
Ride the lightning is only better for wombo combo with like Cass or Maeve. I can’t tell u how many times I’ve killed a nidhogger riding the lightning. He rarely gets the whole team, and a sucka or boomitar can interrupt it. Death growl is incredible for killing priority targets. Stopping a Maeve vanish/toil and trouble,Zerocool wall, or shutting down Kulev when he’s got no shield or pool is super satisfying.
@BasedScones they need to drop the damage of the ult the range or take away the movement of it. With her mobility you can just get next to your target and pretty much insta-gib them. It feels cheap to be on the receiving end of it. She can be stunned out of it so that’s good
There’s actually a tweet on their official twitter showcasing her mobility but the second she lands she gets focused out and has to retreat. She grabs a health pack and ults and kills half the team.
This is pretty much my argument. Needs hp buffs and an ult nerf
@D4m0R3d yea I usually pick him when ppl go gizmo Maeve and Zerocool. I don’t think that’s a great comp but he does the best at swatting away the daemon/Cass flies
@D4m0R3d yea. Pretty much the only time I was worried about her is when my team wasn’t calling out or had a weak comp. in my strongest groups she was a non issue, and frankly a huge weight on their team.
I honestly think she needs buffed some. She needs an hp buff, about 30-50 base ho, and a nerf to blade dance.
@Tetris229 is there going to be MMR based mm’ing or is it in place now?
@Andre-LMay-BR I played a bunch of well coordinated games vs good Cass this weekend. I was gizmo. In well coordinated games Cass was a non issue. A quick focus on her and she was done. Either dead or retreating. Ppl running her against us was a guaranteed win. Gizmo saves mech for blade dance too and burns her to death.
Buttercup and dps focus counters both Zerocool and gizmo.
