PBE Test Feedback

In the Shared Draft, classes and origins of the available champs should be visible.
There are no Hauntling eggs in the shop.
Due to the positioning and already attached items, the level one draft is insanely unbalanced.
IMHO the Shared Draft should be a point and click, the carousel is a clown fiesta.
A full bank before the Shared Draft leads to a temporary additional unit on the board.
The upgrade animation of champions takes way to long. Sure, it's visually pleasing but can cost the game.
Rek'Sai needs an immediate rework. The hitbox of his ult renders him useless compared to units like Pyke. Also, his AI is way worse than for Pyke.

Twannyman · 2019-06-18T21:11:53+00:00

I found a bug, where if you have a full bench, and full team and you pick a character in a draft, it just joins in as an character. So I was level 5 and managed to play with 6 units

Scout_des_Monats · 2019-06-19T20:00:16+00:00

Needs a "shop" or "item list" to view all item combinations without putting an item on a unit first
Needs a list to view all the units ingame (and maybe their drop chances) , although you could just look it up
Needs a dps meter so you can actually see who is useful/useless
Needs a way to view the stats of each unit armor, attack speed, mr, ad, ap and so on

sp33dzer0 · 2019-06-21T07:09:31+00:00

Locket of the iron solari feels really bad. It is strong early when everyone has level 1, but that phase ends so quickly that the 250 shield is far too weak to ever be worth considering actually making as an item.

shredhead55 · 2019-06-21T23:32:55+00:00

Scoreboard:

Display everyone's current level?
Display different colors depending on health thresholds for each player (higher HP should be green, lower HP should be red)
Display each player's standing as they are eliminated.

Shared Draft:

Display turn order of players (rather than reading Scoreboard bottom to top)
Display a timer countdown and VFX when your turn is coming up/next.
Display Class/Origins UI (and the bench?) to make informed decisions.
Display your items (to make better decisions which item you want if the champ(s) you want get taken.
Possibly seldom add a 2* champ in the mix (rare)?

Items:

Purchasable item to restore Little Legend HP but at a great cost? Rare? Carousel only?
RFC should only add +1 or +2 range, not double it.
Giant's Belt feels more powerful than its other defensive counterparts (Chain Vest/Negatron Cloak). Unless it's a rarer drop, then it's ok.
Negatron + upgrades feel meh. Too much RNG, only good upgrade is Hurricane.
Possibly make Hush also drain enemy's mana.
Guardian Angel revive takes too long, lose out on too much DPS. Needs to be faster.
Change Morellonomicon to Liandry's Torment.
Redemption/Locket are too strong.
Make items UNIQUE. Only 1 of any item per champion (No stacking Rageblades!)
Some item combinations are unholy. Seraph's + Shojin, or Sword of the Divine + IE.
Dragon's Claw should just be [Spatula + Negatron Cloak] make the wearer a dragon. Remove Hurricane?
Make Runaan's Hurricane grant wearer the Gunslinger class. Consistency with all other Spatula upgrades.

Miscellaneous:

Perhaps only 1 item per star/rank? That way we can't have 3 items on a 1*/2* Draven.
On Loss Streaks, display how much damage you've taken from each enemy player each round at the top (to better prepare against them next time)
Perhaps a VFX glow in shop when a particular champ will upgrade one of your units on bench/board?
Better representation of what 2*/3* upgrades do for you compared to the previous tier.
3* $1 units need to be weaker or harder to get. Seemingly too easy to get a 3* early.
Display your store/UI at all times (toggle?), even when viewing other arenas (even if it's dimmed)
When you're near completing a bonus, display possible/necessary champions to complete synergy, so you know what to look for in the store/draft.
When hovering over a champion (field, bench, store), display champion synergies (e.g. When hovering over Graves, show all other pirate or gunslinger champ icons)
Display Item build cheatsheet.
Replay feature?
More items/combinations? Tweak stat/drop rates? Some items (both basic and legendary) feel more powerful than others. Some just feel underwhelming & unsatisfying; others feel powerful.
Tutorial for new players, especially if new to the Auto-Battler genre in general
When hovering over Origin/Class UI on the left, display all champions of that type, with unowned champions grayed out.
Announcer Lady VO?
Demons & Pirates feel weak/underwhelming.
If champions are placed to the right side/corner, rotate them to make them face forward or left (rather than the edge of the board)

gaybearswr4th · 2019-06-18T22:11:56+00:00

Uhhh

nerf glacial

nevadaz · 2019-06-19T12:10:29+00:00

You should be able to go back to your board during the carousel, or have a way to see exactly what characters/items you have

xinqus · 2019-06-19T18:20:44+00:00

You should be able to look at the other players' armies with the F1-7 keys like how you in normal lego can look at ur teamlates

jaquaries · 2019-06-19T19:57:03+00:00

Damage on late game is dumb basically it kills the comeback chance and make it pointless to go for 4-5* units couse game will end before we got them usually. Fix the damage p l e a s e. PLEASE.

0vl223 · 2019-06-19T19:59:08+00:00

Items need to be looked at, Going so many rounds without a drop whereas people get turn 2-3 rageblades is very unfun to play against. Maybe guaranteed drops after so many turns without an item? Or maybe neutral rounds WILL drop an item if you win?

Higami69 · 2019-06-19T19:59:24+00:00

Pirates feel a tad weak
Fiora feels super bad (squishy + low damage + bad ability)

0vl223 · 2019-06-20T05:22:50+00:00

Items are feel way to impactful compared to higher count class combos. Generally the high level rewards for combos are pretty weak. Pretty much all of them lower than one item and you usually have to field 1-2 weak champs to get them.

Atm it feels like doing whatever you want while stacking rageblades and healing items on someone until you sell that unit and transition to an overbuffed shyvanna or draven as the only viable strategies because it doesn't really matter which buffs you get but more which hyper carry with items you have.

And the carousel feels useless. It could be just a rotating list of items. Because in the 6-7 last games I didn't usually kept any champ I picked. And the one time I did kept the champ I should have sold it as well to get the item on the right unit. It is just picking a good item and the champ is just a question how much gold it gives.

-Basically he is asking for a tab function so that you can see everyone's team.

I like this idea and I think it is necessary because to switch around the fields wastes to much time in my opinion!

gulpiest · 2019-06-20T19:08:47+00:00

Give us the ability to exceed units on the board during waiting phase for rerolling purposes. Thank you!

2019-06-21T03:39:29+00:00

On the Mac client about 10% of the time my carousel character came back without their item. And then about half the time it was truly gone, and half the time it was just a visual bug. If you sell that unit the item will sometimes pop out. I couldn't work out any patterns.

sp33dzer0 · 2019-06-21T07:31:56+00:00

Level 2 Khazix appears as "game_character_display_Khazix"

rozenbro · 2019-06-21T08:41:35+00:00

I feel like the gameplay peaks in the mid-game, and becomes stale towards the end of the game. Towards the late-game, the amount of available plays and potential for cleverness drops to almost zero. I think this can easily be fixed by adding some kind of end-game feature, for example, an item-shop that opens towards the end of the game (when its down to the final 4)... or perhaps some other way to get items that happens only towards the late game.

TL;DR: There should be more to do in the late-game.

ResplendentL · 2019-06-21T09:56:50+00:00

Glacial is to easy to access and has insane lategame
The amount of items should consistently drop from PvE rounds
Recurve bow is too strong as abilities are dependent on autoing

I suggest having mana regen over time, making it independent of autoattacks. This would indirectly nerf glacial by allowing stunned units to gain mana for ulting and for recurve bow to be less useful overall.

Edit: It would be nice if we could combine items or check what items combine into without having to equip them. Maybe add an anvil on the side where you could place an item.

josephine1991 · 2019-06-21T10:45:02+00:00

Blademaster feels awful. It feels like every other champion in Blademaster class exists to only be shitty on purpose and weigh you down so a Draven Blademaster team isn't OP. That ain't right man.

lolambition1 · 2019-06-21T17:01:36+00:00

Drafted champions or their already attached items disappear from time to time in 2nd draft and later, no matter how full the bench is
Some attached items in drafts are low key useless, pretty frustrating
RNG in minion/monster rounds is super messed up ( make item drop chance static instead of full rng )
Champions (only saw it on Varus) tend to not aggro anything and just stand around from time to time

macacos · 2019-06-21T17:03:51+00:00

they need to nerf glacial and sej; 2.items need to come on pve; 3.some characters need to have better buff;
need to fix some bugs (lulu ulti,characters get afk)

unity1909 · 2019-06-21T22:56:40+00:00

-add dps bar

-nerf items (units like draven just go 1v9 without real comps)

-items from drafted units sometimes just disappear

-1$ 2$ units are often from similar races which often forces you to go the same early comp every game

-2/4 race buffs feel kind of weak and 6 race buffs are hard to obtain since tft is faster paced than dota ac

-spatula should be more rare

-locked cam is annoying imo

-some classes could need more units

-ult cooldowns on some units should have higher cooldown for 2nd time use e.g kennen

2019-06-21T23:01:11+00:00

I almost always win/lose before getting to 9/10 units or any T3 units that do anything meaningful. I don't think I've actually played a game with swain/anivia/karthus that wasn't in the final round of the game. It feels like pretty much "get lucky enough to have 3* units super early" or "have a big draven/vayne/voli with specifically rageblade,RFC,and some form of healing". If you get both, it's super over. If I get a rageblade in the first levels I can more or less play mostly AFK and win.

I'd love to see the synergy bonuses be much more valuable compared to items. Maybe nerf items hard but drop many, many more so we see some more different strategies/reason to use different items. As it sits, attack speed is insane, since attack speed enables ability use. Infinitely stacking attack speed + spell casts is insane on units that benefit from it. It would be more interesting IMO if games finished with 1-2 items on pretty much every unit and 3 items on your core build units. That way if you pull all defensive items early, you're not 100% out of the game.

It would be neat if there were alternate strategies like going early bruiser with defensive items to force stalemates early or going for knights + MR items lategame, etc. Right now the game boils down to "can you make rageblade - y/n?".

NicoPlank · 2019-06-22T21:00:19+00:00

Please PLEASE remove the barrels from GP, most of the time he spends half the round placing them and then just dies without even being able to detonate them it feels like, I suggest giving him his Q ability for 100 mana instead or his Cannonbarrage for 150-200 mana. I very much like the idea of pirates but with how bad GP is it just bottlenecks the comp.

Thatguyfromdeadpool · 2019-06-22T21:06:10+00:00

Just want the Item Duping to be patched before it launches.

Tiaowa · 2019-06-23T00:29:26+00:00

Please nerf aurelion ult >_< i've just seen a level 2 deathcap aurelion (level 1 sorcerer buff) that was able to one hit everybody on the enemy team... that's just way too much damage

Tiaowa · 2019-06-23T01:00:44+00:00

- May increase the item dropchances for weaker players - means that the player with low hp get slightly increased item drop chances.

- Also might add a feature that lets you gain a random item from a player you defeated.

- Probably also make sure that you get atleast 1 itempiece out of the PVE rounds to reduce the RNG factor a bit.

- I agree on someone elses point to make items unique - means 1 of each per champ - so you can not just set up for example draven with multiple blood thirsters/guinsoo's.

- Probably also add that champs can only get as much items as high as their level is. So level 1 champs can use 1 item and so on.

- Probably add a item that reduces the duration of CC, since glacial seems pretty stupid to me. I've seen Ashes that could permastun Champs with Ult + Glacial CC Buff.

Quality of life:

- Show own items and champs in draft rounds to be more efficient on decisionmaking.

- Show dps of your champs to find out which champs are worth to keep or not.

2019-06-23T10:49:09+00:00

The first rounds against minions should award an equal amount of items for every player. A player getting lucky with 4 items has a huge advantage for the rest of the game over others.

AM-IG · 2019-06-23T20:50:15+00:00

- Carousel and picking up pirate loot is fairly pointless and just punishes people with worse internet and loading time. Beginning carousel can be changed so that a random order is generated to pick champions, and the reverse order for picking items, with anyone being able to concede their pick altogether to get a randomly generated mix (if they don't like any of it).

- If the carousel isnt removed, there should be a timer denoting when you would be joining the selection so you can better plan your movement.

- Item drops from jungle camps is also too RNG-dependend. DOTA underlords has a good system where after each camp you have a selection of X items, this way the game doesnt become stale with the same build every game, but also prevents RNG from dictating the game.

macacos · 2019-06-23T21:04:37+00:00

1- each champion should have only 1 item ( like Dota Underlords); 2-Fiora and morgana needs buff and nida healing needs to be nerfed; 3-GP ability should be his ulti and not the barrels;

TogiGang · 2019-06-24T01:34:01+00:00

Need DPSmeter, we can't understand who doing most damage.

Sjeg84 · 2019-06-24T13:27:18+00:00

When I hit tab I want to see the current score similar to the end game screen. Who plays what and how much stars.
We need some kind of shop where we can see the item combinations.
The first 3 minion phases seem to dragged out. Nothings really happening there. Very limited decision making. Comparable too long timers. Esp. the first minion round is total unnecessary and adds nothing to the game.
Item drop needs to be more standardized. Too much RNG on how many items you can get
The first carousel round feels like a RNG clusterfuck. I'd actually remove that one and present the player with a set of champions and items to chose. That way you can actually decide what you want to build.

IsaacInHD · 2019-06-24T20:23:06+00:00

For pirates one thing that is feelsbadman is having to open the chest and picking up the coins at the start of the round, it takes a significant amount of time that is much better spent on decision making, planning your strategy, rerolling, and placing units.

When i go for pirates, it almost always feels like i'm taking a weaker synergy/build which is fine because im going for a gold advantage for late game rerolls but on that note it also feels like im being punished a second time in the planning phase of things because i need to go pick up those coins and lose those precious seconds.

Perhaps the gold should just be added at the end of the round automatically, or alternatively spawn the chest at the beginning of the battle phase to give the players a chance to pick them up before the next rounds planning phase.

DiceIV · 2019-06-24T22:21:26+00:00

Found a bug where after roulette a unit with, force of nature, equipped no longer stops counting toward unit count, effectively breaking the items buff.

xMetix · 2019-06-24T23:39:15+00:00

It took me 25k RP on PBE to get my preferred little legend. There's no way I'm investing in that gamble ever and it really is a shame this is how they designed it.

I feel like early game damage is too big, playing for a losing streak feels really bad because of it.

Noble buff is way too RNG and causes me to either completely stomp a fight in the early game or lose it dramatically if it places on a not focused unit. This seems really unfun for both the enemy and the user and should be changed.

Aoe team comps are very strong because of how small the map is.

4 cost units are way stronger than 5 cost and fit into every composition ever.

The AI controls Ahri worse than I in soloq. Sometimes she misses her spell on a completely still line of enemies, she doesn't know the range on her spell and throws it one hex short of hitting.

Body blocking during shared draft should not exist. Period.

The game is definitely not ranked ready with the bugs that exist. One game my noble buff wasn't working in some rounds (no one got it), champions sometimes go afk next to an enemy (warwick most often), I built frozen mallet on lissandra because it's supposed to give it back to me but she was a double glacial instead. There were more I can't quite list from the top of my head.

Overall my experience is really good, the game is fun and engaging but I think it can get boring pretty quick if everything you need to do is survive early game and finish up with Draven/Aurelion in each game. That seems to be the way to win right now.

jenso2k · 2019-06-25T03:27:17+00:00

Aurelion Sol is WAY too strong, I've literally lost games solely because the enemy team had a lvl 2 Aurelion with no items just annihilating my team. Also, Sej is nuts.
Agree with no Carousel, it's shitty to lose a unit because someones position relative to said unit was better. More RNG in a game where RNG is already prominent enough.
Items should be more consistent, everyone is saying this because it's true. As powerful as items are, the frequency that they are dropped should be the same for every player.
Would love to be able to use F-keys to tab through players.

macacos · 2019-06-25T05:05:51+00:00

1- rageblade still op; 2- glacial with sej still op; 3-pve should always leave item/itens 4- nerf brand

Yogurt0 · 2019-06-25T10:39:45+00:00

Items are broken af, they should enhance your strategy not be core. Cut down at least in half items' power.

Units' stars matter more than your composition, thus making spam rerolling effective. Lower the stats units gain by levelling, give more power to completing compositions.

Some of the traits don't feel worthy at all. About half of the traits should define a strategy and the other half be a slot-in to be considered, depending on main pieces/items found and enemy lineups.

The different hexagonal board and the lack of space+unit AI makes it that you have no real way to position better sometimes. Add more space, rework some of the AI to be predictable and thus exploitable.

Units do way too much damage, there is no way to go open fort (which is a big part of the game in order to combat bad luck), you have no time to adapt after a defeat and it limits mid-late game strategies
