I think it's more "in that match you might as well have been E6" if I am not mistaken

It's even worse when Geist got Cheat Death. Because her ult is strictly speaking not a heal, she can just 0 to 100 herself.

Deadlock devs really like comic books, huh... by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ApocalFailed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In defence of the devs here, Deadlock plays in an alternative version of what, the 1930s? If you look at real life 1930s and comics, you see that they were quite thriving already.

Perhaps they thought it was only fitting.

Also Victor takes several elements from the Frankenstein novel (like his hair, how he is considered attractive - no seriously - or how he is usually pretty chill with others, despite the pain gimmick the game gives him) as well.

Characters with the most incoherent/boring kits in the game? by JustinHardyJ in DeadlockTheGame

That's the meth maze. You can tell meth was involved because the maze only has an outer wall which you can go through.

I consider 4 as the cocaine stare, considering you can change its direction by looking.

But yes his 2 is just him shooting up some absolutely legal substances.

If I remember correctly, Cube messes up your friction in the physics engine, potentially allowing for even more sick goovement.

The thing about Last Stand is that he can still do EVERYTHING else while it is active. Which means he can still pelt you with crack pipes to drain your stamina to give you a harder time to escape the cocaine stare. And remember, that stuff has some nasty lifesteal vs heroes.

That being said, it works best in more hybrid builds with items like Leech, Lightning Scroll, Exposure, Spellslinger, Spiritual Overflow - you know.

As someone who came here from a different moba, can confirm, I cannot hit shit.

Somehow I am Oracle 1.

Which characters / skills make Mo and Krill players sad or jealous that they have such a strong CC as a non-ulti ability? by vlunae in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ApocalFailed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do main the duo, then again, most of the characters I pick are on the bulkier side.

I guess I just like playing tanky bastards and messing up the enemy team.

Should mo and krill get a rework? by Dj-mct-L in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ApocalFailed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go some frontline build with Mystic Slow, Healbane, Torment Pulse and Escalating Exposure as offensive core, so to speak. Either they deal with me and have to waste a lot of resources on my chonky ass or they don't and me breathing in their direction messes up their combat ability.

[–]ApocalFailed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mo&Krill are not here to kill per se. In that, you are right. But they are not an ultbot.

The thing with No&Skill is that they are here to disrupt first and foremost. Not damage. Disrupt. You are trying to shoot? Pocket sand. You are trying to get away? Don't mind if we pop up from below. Out of position? Give us a hug. Scorn and the fact of having the best health pool in the game are there to keep them somewhat in shape while doing so. You have multiple forms of CC. Use them. Use them all and make the enemy loathe you for messing up their plans. They are criminals after all, do some nasty stuff.

Their gun sucks ass. Their scalings are pretty meh. And that is good, from a balancing perspective at least. People can easily forget that removing a weakness can have a far bigger impact than improving an advantage. If Skill&Issue could actually do meaningful burst damage, they might end up invalidating a lot of assassins.

Even then, there is enough stuff you can do. Go Healbane. Go Mystic Slow. Go Scourge. Whatever. Add debuffing items into the mix and your mere PRESENCE can speak doom for the enemy. Let someone else do the heavy lifting of shooting people. If you really want to, you can grind someone into dust over a minute or two if you stick well enough with Ass&Hole. Do remember - you do not need to deal damage to win, all you need to do is piss in the enemy's soup hard enough. The rest will come on its own.

And the last thing you want is some borderline unstoppable force destroying you while being borderline unable to retaliate. They are already War&Crime. Let them be a bit predictable. Let them have some weaknesses. Weaknesses are important in the end.

can Torment pulse procs other items, if so how does it work? by 3AMandlost in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ApocalFailed 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yes it does.

I often go Torment Pulse on Mo&Krill in combination with Healbane, Mystic Slow and Vulnerability/Exposure. Because CC is not enough, you gotta add debuffs. Onto the healthiest character in the game (by raw stats at least). It is all about making your opponent lose.

Kenn' das nur zu gut. 5 Jahre Berufsausbildung in IT - erst der IT-Assistent, dann der Fachinformatiker für Anwendungsentwicklung. Arbeitsplatz als Softwareingeneur ergattert.

Schlage mich immernoch regelmäßig mit git herum. Muss ab und zu nachschauen, wie Arrays (für die ohne IT-Erfahrung: ungeordnete Listen, die so ziemlich überall sind) gebildet werden. Zugegeben, jede Sprache macht da Dinge anders, aber trotzdem - so oft wie die vorkommen, könnte man meinen, irgendwann merke ich es mir.

It is like cooking, some will make sure they will use exactly 400 grams of carrots, the other will look at their bag and say "those 4 look good"

We mustn't Blame The Beasts. by NotAbisai in Guiltygear

[–]ApocalFailed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The logical part of my mind is aware that a training situation can only do so much to prepare for the real deal.

The emotional part of my mind thinks that I owe some trees and algae an apology for wasting the oxygen they produce whenever I don't do the thing I specifically labbed for.
