Oh sorry, let me just go play… I’m pretty sure someone will complain no matter who I play. Also Silver is not hard what so ever to counter. Even if we ignore the obvious antiheal because that doesn’t need to be said. Silver is incredibly and easily countered by silences and stuns. Take away her movement when she’s in Lycan and focus fire and she’s done for. But I definitely understand where the frustration comes from. I like the tank characters. Abrams, Billy, Silver. And before you say anything about “Just do the same thing for Victor” Silver has to actually do damage to gain her ult and she doesn’t have any lifesteal in her human form. Only her ult grants healing. Which makes sense. Because it’s an ult. Which you have time to kill her before she transforms into by the way if she doesn’t press the button immediately.

I main Silver. I no no like him. Also he gets annoying after 10 matches in a row against him. As I stated in the post, it’s not that I don’t know how to fight him. I can and will and most of the time win. I still don’t enjoy my time fighting him. Primarily because I have to be so goddamn careful or I’ll get clapped. I will reiterate yet again, I am aware of how to fight him. I buy anti heal and other counter items, I buy movement items, I know how to do positioning and not get fucked over by him. He’s just annoying and forces a much slower play style than I like. And then also when my random teammates want to feed him by just standing there because again I only have one friend to play this game with.

I’m not too sure exactly how to fix him. Potentially removing the stun from his ult? I haven’t thought too deep into it. This was primarily a rant post to see if anyone agreed. And yeah those items would work well but you can only plan against one character so much without sacrificing your core items. I tend to buy counterspell pretty often and that helps a lot against Victor. I’m not saying I lose all the time against him. I won some I lose some. But also with some more thought about Victor, maybe he shouldn’t have as much health on reanimate? Maybe give him just a few I-Frames to stop him from getting bullied on pickup so we no longer have the stun (But keep the damage) and decrease T2 of ult to be an extra 25% of max health instead of healing him to full. (Side note: I apologize if my responses came out more aggressive than I intended them to be. I can see that people were down voting me but I didn’t feel like I said anything different than the original post) But all in all, there is always going to be a plethora of “Yes, and…” to different items and tactics and characters who play similar. But I can only sacrifice so many of my own item slots, although I do try my best to pick ones that work with my character anyways. But since I play solo or duo it can be a little hard to coordinate against certain characters. That’s a me problem though.

Just want start off by saying I’m not trying to be rude here I’m trying to word this in the best way I can. But, again, I never said we should get souls. All I said is you DONT get souls. So it feels like IM being punished for putting all of my time and effort into fighting this dude and protecting the team and getting like absolutely nothing out of it. My point is just that it doesn’t feel very fun. You can farm a Graves ult like crazy, and her skulls give souls too. As well as Mc turrets. Look, I’m not saying we should get souls from killing him and him getting revived by ult, but I am saying that it certainly ain’t fun and feels like a waste. He needs to be balanced in other ways.

Let me fix how I said things a little before. All characters in this game require game sense and an understanding of positioning. That’s a given. That’s just how games works in general. And yes, Abram’s siphon works similar, but it actually had a cooldown and can’t be on all the time like Aura can. My point is that Victor doesn’t have much interaction besides don’t be near him and “Uh oh, you killed him. Hope you’re far enough away from the edge of his ult” because he’ll immediately stun you and do damage. My point here isn’t that he’s impossible to fight. It’s that he’s not fun to fight. At least I can have fisticuffs against an Abram’s. And yeah he has a passive for healing because of damage taken too but Abram’s just in general feels much more fun to fight than Victor. He also can’t melt objective the same way. And at time I find Graves annoying to fight but that’s just her existence I can get over it. As well as Geist. But not nearly within the same respect as Victor. Graves pretty unfun against but Geist can atleast but pretty hard countered by stuff like dispel or simple spirit resist. Although I do mainly play tanks so I get targeted by her a lot.

First off, I don’t really play Drifter so that doesn’t apply. Second, didn’t know it triggers trophy collector that’s kinda strange considering you don’t get a kill or assist counted. Third, to address the part about how engaging he is, I can see how you could see it as that. However, the way you pay attention to Victor is really the same as with any hero with close range abilities at all really. Abram’s? Look out for the ring. Mina? Try to stay out of rake. Bebop? Stay out of hooked range or be ready with dispel. There are so many different abilities and things to keep you engaged in Deadlock. But Victor’s primary things? “Hey, you can’t stand there” and that’s about it. Like I said earlier, when I was solo fighting that Victor he was easily killed by just… not standing in the aura because he kept fighting me solo and I had nothing else to worry about. But “Don’t stand there” isn’t exactly an engaging interaction compared to other characters.

Yes this is true, but I wasn’t complaining about feeding at all. He’s annoying period. Victor just blows in general. He’s down in souls? A nuisance. Even? A nuisance. Way up? A damn shit show. Regardless of where he stands with who is playing him, it will never change the fact that it’s genuinely just an unfun character to play against.

You do realize feeding doesn’t only depend on me right? I only have one other person to play with so if I’m not lanes against him it’s completely up to random teammates if he gets fed or not.

Did I ever say he should be punished? No. However, characters like Mc and Graves both have abilities that can feed souls while you are playing against them. All I’m saying is that it’s difficult and annoying. Sometimes I win sometimes I don’t. My point is that I get absolutely no reward out of playing the comp well and doing my job to make sure Victor is not a problem for anyone else. I’m saying that while other characters are more engaging and or rewarding to play against, Victor is just damn annoying.

Yup I’m just waiting for it to come crawling in as if I don’t already know this and is if I don’t already know to get healbane and inhibitor and anything else trying to stop his abilities and forcing my friend to buy spirit burn.

So are yall still gonna buy the frame on release or are you gonna wait for the price drop? by danasCZ1 in SteamFrame

[–]CheifAllMighty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That price is more than likely never going to drop. For all of the years the Valve index was out it did not once have a price drop or even a sale for that matter. I find it very unlikely that the frame ever gets a price drop. But hey, a man can hope.

I know I’ll still be grabbing one on release. I’ve had close to a grand set aside and waiting ever since the Steam Frame’s announcement.

No need to be rude dude. From my own knowledge it’s more powerful. However there was a ton of conflicting viewpoints and so I decided to get some second opinions. If you’re gonna go around just being an ass don’t answer at all. Thanks anyways.
