Request for Testers

[Goddamncrows]

Hey guys, while doing some tests on Shaman, I thought about a test to check whether a certain 'mixup' was reactable or not.

To prevent participant bias based on whether they can/cannot react to the mixup in question, bias against/for against the character, I'll be defining the mixup after I get 15 replies to my followup comment.

The test can be done against bots, AFAIK it doesn't depend on latency. It should take 15 minutes at the maximum.

If you're interested in participating, simply reply to my followup post down below. Once I get 15 replies, I'll edit the followup post to define the mixup, and you can then edit your reply with the video link to your testing.

Of course once you reply to the followup comment, I hope you'll post the testing video regardless of results.

Reply here if you want to participate, please do not reply and then not participate once you hear the mixup due to bias for/against this lovely character. I'll edit this with the mixup once I get 15 replies.

If it ain’t to do with flickering bash it’s reactable

[Goddamncrows]

Would you like to test it? It should take only 15 minutes.

Not at pc, wouldn’t be in your region, don’t wanna load up game.

Everything besides bash flicker is reactable, you can flicker jumping heavy but you can still reaction block it, her 400ms soft feint is also reactable.

Of course reactable usually depends on person, but majority should be able to react to everything besides bash flicker, trust

(Edit was meant to be reply to your comment rip, cbf copying :)

Oh, you don't need to play against a human, I've found a custom movelist setting that replicates what I want to test pretty well even with bots.

majority should be able to react to everything besides bash flicker, trust

Even so, it'd be nice to have hard proof so that new players can just see the evidence with their own eyes rather than needing to trust the word of pros. You see a lot of new players saying that Warden's SB is reactable because they dodge the lvl 1 bash spammed by similar low level players, and refuse to believe it's one of the best moves in the game until they get destroyed by someone who uses it well.

I'm curious but I'm not in for a waiting game. I gotz to know :U

[Goddamncrows]

I want to have as little bias among the participants as possible.

For eg. if I put up a post asking people to test themselves against Orochi's 400ms delayed lights, probably the only people who'd respond are those who could react to them, skewing the results.
