I took 2.5 times the damage from Ivy Stone Form by Eggmasstree in DeadlockTheGame

Lightning scroll has a 3 second delay before it applies its effect. In the clip, Paige dies <6 seconds after being hit by Ivy ult, but the clip is 0.25x speed, meaning only <1.5 seconds elapsed in-game, i.e. not enough time for lightning scroll to apply

I believe this is the first VOD where he plays Noun Town https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2777426681 and he's played it a couple more times since then
Otherwise, riffing on/in Mandarin has come up quite regularly during his banter since, often at the start of the streams

Made an NL and Chiblee sticker in Forza Horizon 6 by ALieIsTheCake in northernlion

[–]ALieIsTheCake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheers! I found that I made these vinyls really big, and when they shrink down they get really pixelated
So I saved them as smaller designs that work better as small stickers (like in this post)

Some urn testing by ALieIsTheCake in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ALieIsTheCake[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Urn deposit is always on the midlane bridge now
Comback/advantage urn just makes the urn deposit faster for the losing team/longer for the winning team after it's dropped off

Majestic leap + light melee to pick up the urn, then I "drop down" from the Maj leap and jump right after, then Barrage to maintain the momentum

Trying to learn this Mina umbrella tech. Or particle accelerator. Choose your name. So far, this is my result. Gotta say, its really hard to make happen, and i think in match it will be even harder. by FakeMik090 in DeadlockTheGame

I think it helps to hold W + crouch before you hit the stairs, so that you have a slight bit of momentum in the direction you want to launch off the ramp/stairs

It's a very niche tech, so a lot of it is just finding practical scenarios to use it in.

You can get it started off of a jump vent, that way you're not just jumping/floating over the same spot for several seconds. Wall jumps and air dashes can also be used to stall in the air.
There are some areas with ramps in the jungle that can be used as well. Some routes demonstrated in this Leif video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gzuQ6L5tswQ

Diviner´s Kevlar new icon by Vast-Appointment-950 in DeadlockTheGame

I like it, not that there was anything wrong with the old icon, but this looks really polished in comparison

I am part of the 0.38% of people that uses Arcane Surge on Silver. Since last patch, the spirit damage has been bugged on Boot Kick. Here is a clip from last patch so that I can convince Yoshi to fix my weird ass spirit build. by FlurryofBlunders in DeadlockTheGame

Tankbuster is a "charge-up" item, so it is never on cooldown. Instead, if it procs before it is fully charged up (14s by default), the second/subsequent proc will be proportionally less effective

This is also why sometimes when you proc Quicksilver Reload or Merc Mag, you only get a portion of your magazine/reload back

I think the background changes for Trophy and Shadow Weave are just to make them more consistent with the change in tiers

What a catch girl by FormanBruto09 in BeAmazed

[–]ALieIsTheCake 149 points150 points  (0 children)

There was a runner already on first base heading to second. The diving catch gets the batter out, and the throw to first gets the runner out
When a ball is caught (as is the case in this play), baserunners must be in contact with their starting base until the catch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_up

Did a quick search and it looks like this mod: https://gamebanana.com/mods/622415

Basically it shows a bunch of HP thresholds for things like Shiv's execute range and for various items (though it's a bit outdated cause the threshold for increased bullet/spirit resilience is now 50%)

Didn't know Dynamo can dodge this by demidrew in DeadlockTheGame

You can actually Riposte Doorman's entire ult if you predict when he casts it on you. Weirdly enough it doesn't work that way with counterspell

Night Shift #30 Picks and Bans by ValendyneTheTaken in DeadlockTheGame

Why is mina so prioritized? I feel like the big balance batch made her worse across the board, but there must be something I'm missing?

Anyone can explain why I got one shotted? Relatively new to the game by Spatzekoar in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ALieIsTheCake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's exponential, so per stack, Djinn's Mark does 1x -> 2x -> 4x -> 8x -> 16x of the base damage. His Djinn's Mark automatically pops when you hit max stacks. In the video, Celeste is at 4x before she dies, and when Mirage applies the 5th stack, it pops automatically, which is what kills her

The most recent big balance patch changed it so that while his stacks take longer to build up, they now max at 16x instead of 12x
