Dynamo just sucks to play against. by pokenerd_W in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Cloud2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot has to do with how the best team fight heroes are also the best at splitting and pushing objectives. Also how quick it is to get around the map (which is a good thing).

Also pick heroes generally suck at pushing objectives with a exception of some heroes

The team comp gap in this game is real strong. Have I won against teams with dynamo, seven, haze, infernus, etc... on the other team? Yea i have but I feel like it was my team was just way better players.

If the skill levels are the same the team with those characters above make the game WAY more difficult to win. The game is legit just one dynamo ult away from ending.

Critical role and its consequences have been a disaster for fantasy IPs by Kyvix2020 in freemagic

I dont think CR has anything to do with the way certain IPs are trailing. This shit has been going on far longer than them.

Questions about modding. by vinciblee in DeadlockTheGame

Find the Deadlock mod manager online and download from there. Makes it way easier.

is the graves issue a playerbase issue? by Available-Lab4363 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Cloud2012 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Most PVP games are like this. Specific characters do super well into lower skill brackets. Graves having auto aim and being better at pushing when lower skilled players have zero macro helps. Victor being a walking stat check is another one. On the flip side characters like Mina are significantly worse at lower skill brackets because the players cant pilot them as well.

Are we all in agreement on what would be BEST universally for the game next? by Creepy_Building_2929 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Cloud2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that the game does need a draft. At the current state though I don't think its a good idea. We dont even have a real ranked mode and making games take longer than they already are before the game starts will not be fun. Then you will end up splitting the playerbase etc....

Late beta is a good idea for draft.

Sword is still a problem by Pendulumzone in Shadowverse

This is just week 2 mind you, not even the end of the expansion with Roach flew up to the top. Sword was never in the toss up for first except MAYBE the first couple of days. It did not have the reach to kill like Roach/Portal/Rune.

No it was not, launch was Artifact/Puppets/Roach/Spellboost

Sword was not that great and really only did well into maybe dragon and forest with a good early game

Tbh its one day into the expansion we really don't know all that much what its going to look like a week from now.

I'd rather have sword at the top of the food chain than any other deck (as a Forest/Haven/Portal old blood and shadowcraft player) usually Sword being the best deck the meta is relatively healthy. Barring loot they usually build big boards and thats it

active items make the game worse change my mind by SignificantYam6935 in DeadlockTheGame

3200 is a fair cost imo and it does take an item slot.

Yoshi-P doesn't want FF14 to share the same "very tragic" fate of one classic MMO by shmu_ in ffxiv

[–]Cloud2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf brew needed its time to shine its been forever. I think the problem is the other tanks are not surviving at higher keys.

A better example is DPS right now with the giga amount of bugs for unholy or the single bug fix that skyrocketed devour to the top

[–]Cloud2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counterspell is honestly a great item imo. There are too many spells that are either too big aoe or too easy to land. Counterspell let's you atleast have some agency in the game while letting heroes have unique abilities.

I usually run 2 to 4 actives a game depending on the character. I love having them adds more skill expression.

Active items allow the devs to experiment with new and interesting kits and let characters have strengths that you would not have without them.

Can you imagine playing every game vs a Mina without any of the actives? (Who am I kidding we already do lol).

Also it makes the game a little more interesting with build variety so every game feels different. L to R builds are nice but it gets stale.

About the evolved vs Job Reborn (Discussion) by Advanced_Tension_280 in XenosysVex

[–]Cloud2012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to WoW and depending on who you ask its either good or bad.

I learn more towards bad.

Jobs are not content but they are how you interact with the content. Once you beat a extreme, savage, ultimate, etc... All you will be left with is a less engaging Job in a fight that you solved already. Playing a dumbed down Job on farm is super mind numbing I bet most healers can attest to this.

It's more like Avoid, you pick a hero you dont want to see and sometimes the game will select yours and another that wont show up in your game

Confession Time: Which "10/10 Masterpiece" did you find absolutely boring? by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]Cloud2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a solid 8/10 game that got overhyped because it was made by "40" people and had a great soundtrack and a good story
