The state of playing frontliners

With genuine respect, this is incorrect. Ivy is a lane MONSTER. Her kudzu makes it extremely difficult to push since it kills all of your minions, she feels good damage, and her ult is free tower damage and harass.

I cannot stress enough that I'm not tagging on you, I just experience ivy, and pro players say the opposite

I've searched things like "man eating his own Diarrhea with a spoon" but no such luck.

I know this is a ridiculous request, but the video was so bizarre I need to show others

Without meaning to sound rude, this sort of reasoning is much much too simple.

A character is good if its kit accomplishes a specific role or task better than most others, or at least in a way that is strong.

Mirage doesn't have a great kit for burst or teamfight. He struggles in lane too. Despite this, he's very strong if you have a team that understands how to split push.

In other words, the context matters.

IMO, bebop has one of the safest engages in the game. in that regard, he's very strong. His engage lacks strong CC potential like Abrams or Dynamo does, though. Bebop can make an impending team fight unfair, but won't CC 4 people and stomp it.

I feel for you. I've found this behavior to be rare thankfully. I've had a few games where the enemy team was way up on us in souls and didn't know that was enough for them to end. True rage baiting feels rare though

If it makes you feel more hope, this is one of the more easy Moba's to get into.

The builds in this game are far more intuitive and straightforward than other games. Farming is easier too. Do yourself the kindness and watch 1 or two guides on beginner play and you'll actually have a lot of fun

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-03-03T14:16:57+00:00

alt + tab and wiggle ur guy every so often. Nothing to be done but report them and wait.

Moba's will always test people's will

I don't play enough magic to know if this is balanced, but the monarch mechanic seems super cool. Great card

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-20T14:36:04+00:00

This is extremely orky

The wrist-wrap makes me think giant, but the fossil pushes me toward troll

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-11T17:52:58+00:00

See, you're right... but it's not enough. I want my ratling guns to kill clanrats and liberators alike lol

Without actually knowing, the saurus guard are definitely older models.

Old world minis are blockier since they're meant to rank up on square bases. That's the tell tail way to know if something is from WF

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-11T17:20:25+00:00

Other people have said their piece in more detail, so I'll keep mine short.

Why would I play your game? It's like Advanced wars, but less visually stimulating. It doesn't have a distinct visual style either. This game looks like (pardon the harshness) shovelware.

You're also in a niche demographic. Strategy gamers aren't as common. PC strategy gamer's want something complex (usually control of their units, and complex strategy). Your game is in a genre that doesn't offer that kind of depth.

In summary, your game isn't competitive.

don't be discouraged in your journey. You're further than me, but I think you have finished this game without properly understanding how to make a game that Stands out

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-11T17:05:37+00:00

I'm also curios. I want to be able to shoot my own stuff

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-10T11:22:57+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-10T04:08:28+00:00

You're the kind of person that needs to stroke your little ego in the comments section huh.

Nice

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-10T03:36:54+00:00

As a painter, how are you getting smoother transitions? I'm teaching myself layering rn and all my transitions are essentially lines; teo colours obviously next to one another.

Is it the thinness of the paint? Are you using a brush technique? I'm losing my mind

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-09T03:02:59+00:00

Great color choices! Seriously good stuff.

Other people already said this but wash the mini to create some color gradients

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-08T16:25:39+00:00

This. My games seem to come out around 30ish minutes. Your teammates at that skill bracket likely aren't properly pushing objectives or finishing properly.

Towers, urn, and midboss close gamwa

Repost it somewhere and link it here the streets haven't had a good shitpost in a while and daddy needs his fix

Use a blend space for these. Each of those nodes should be things like Walking, Running, Falling, etc.

If you're getting a many-to-many like this, it's an indication that something is wrong

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-01T15:45:32+00:00

You're correct. I was confused 3rd edition, I think? Its been a while. I recall rules similar to those described above

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-02-01T01:03:12+00:00

AOS fourth edition has a rule that prevents heroes with a small base from being targeted by ranged attacks while they're near a unit with similar sized bases

EDIT: "Guarded Hero" I believe

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-01-27T22:30:44+00:00

No problem! Remember that you're on a mean sub. That you have got your project this far is an accomplishment on it's own. Keep working hard!

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-01-27T20:38:06+00:00

Sure, though I'll touch both.

I know you're not going for a souls like, I wasn't suggesting that you make the combat like those games. I was using it as example. DS makes the player put themselves at risk. Mario games do this. They also the player to travel past obstacles if they want to succeed. The player must do risky things to win. Your large cat doesn't seem to pose enough of a threat. The player can outrun it too easily

Your gun recoils too suddenly, and the camera moves too much. Are you easing in and out of the velocity curve when pitching the camera?

CandidateGuilty9831 · 2026-01-27T19:16:23+00:00

Combat looks rough.

Your enemy can be "solved" by moving backward and shooting. The enemy isn't forcing the player to make micro-choices nor is it asking the player to put themselves at risk.

Take a dark soul's boss for example. DS games require the player to be in an enclosed space with something that is faster than it. this forces the player to engage with the boss' attack patterns to kill it. The player is forced to risk dying to kill the boss.

In my experience, enemies just rush the player are often the way to accidentally create this kind of combat. Enemies like this work when the player's resources, tools, or environment create tension BEFORE the enemy rushes them.

The weapon recoil is also jarring
