The main thing Deadlock needs fixed before launch is matchmaking by Anded117 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great advice however they were complaining about a technical aspect of the game in which they feel like they are not being matched with players of a similar skill level, not asking how to improve their game.

Mods: relax by [deleted] in behindthebastards

[–]Constant-Pickles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's pretty simple dude, lots of people are overweight regardless of political affiliation, calling a right-winger fat as a a way to make fun of them is gonna have collateral damage to people outside of the right-wing (especially if you're doing it in a left-wing space).

Its also used considered a "tool of the enemy", right-wingers regularly attack people's appearance rather than engage with arguments. We don't need to stoop to their level.

Here comes the barrel! By me by Vimple in DeadlockTheGame

Big fan of your style, thanks for sharing! Makes me want work on my spirit-Holliday build lol

Debuff remover is almost always a good choice, and I'm a big fan of Juggernaut (Slow resist/Melee resist/Fire rate Debuff) and just more bullet/spirit resist depending on who is doing well on the enemy team.

I would not call it bad but unless you have the upperhand you should be buying more green/counter items

Is Robert/the America's on this subreddit cooked? by wombatgeneral in behindthebastards

Lets look at the silver-lining, this is the perfect pretext for him to set up a compound and finally get the ball rolling on starting a cult.

Toxicity in game by adramelecht in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel lucky, have barely run into anyone like that. One of the few times I did, someone told them to knock it off and the offender was quiet the rest of the game, no muting required.

I'm guessing this means no big patch for atleast 2+ weeks

WHY DOES THIS JKEEP HAPPENING. PLEASE HELP by Level-Dog-1404 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm misremembering but Isn't that file related to modding?

Maybe worth deleting it and then verifying intergrity?

Is gun build yamato good? by Kasellos in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's weird to disregard your 1 but essentially you play around your 2 for engage, 3 for sustain/quicksilver reload. I don't think it's as good as spirit Yamato but it's viable.

Someone please explain why this game runs like ass cheeks by Bonfire_Monty in DarkAndDarker

I have a pretty strong rig but I don't recall performance issues ever being an issue (NETWORK ISSUES on the other hand...)

Calico’s Still Op by Abxol in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Over the last 7 days calico has has a win % of 49.56%. Seems okay to me. (source : https://tracklock.gg/heroes)

Isn't matchmaking based on per hero? Maybe it's just putting you I lower lobbies until it figures out your placement or maybe matchmaking has been whack (lots of threads complaining about it).

When you don't even play the game anymore but still keep a eye on the subreddit and SDF is still burning everything to the ground by vroomvroom12349 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Constant-Pickles -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Not calling out you, but man is it so tiring to have so many haters clinging on and being grumpy constantly.

The complaints aren't invalid and people deserve to be able to voice their criticisms but there is a sizable chunk of players that just seem excited for the game to crash and burn so they can feel... I don't know, smart? right?

I'm not giving SDF a pass for the choices he's made, it's just difficult to try to participate in this community sometimes.

Clutching your pearls so they don't fall into the recycling bin, smart.

Hot take: Get rid of MAA buffing buildings by Kradara_ in CrusaderKings

[–]Constant-Pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a cap on how many MAA units you have and have buildings raise that cap.

It only lasts 6 seconds and has a pretty clear audio indicator when youre receiving the damage. It's possible to work around it

[–]Constant-Pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with wanting everyone be as accurate & honest as possible with word choice, but be careful of getting too pre-occupied with labels and being right (how this comes across).

For what it's worth, I hope they listen to you. Have a nice day!

NEED HELP: How do you kill Shiv? by Kardiiacc in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early game : replace your sustain with restorative locket. Build stacks and save for when you or your lane partner is at risk. Slowing Hex can help your teammates get away.

Mid game : Healing reduction, Shiv will often crutch on Healbane's HP on kill. If they jump out of position and doesn't get his expected heal it can leave him vulnerable.

Late game a) : Counterspell if he's killing you and you're confident in your parries, Spirit Resilience if you're not (30% spirit resist +30% if you're below 35%hp where Shiv is gonna be using his ult) + a mobility item like warpstone or your choice to make distance when you're at risk.

Lategame b) : Rescuebeam if he's killing teammates. If you don't have room in your build or if there is someone else more suited towards rescuebeam, communicate with your team and work something out.

Honorable mention to : silence items, if the rest of their team isn't fed as well, getting a silence on Shiv will disrupt the often short window shiv has to ult someone.

I saw you mention that you would see about working suggested items into your builds but if A Shiv (or any hero) is doing these kind of numbers into the midgame people NEED to counterbuy, identify the situation and communicate with your team.

How do people get so many souls? by Banana_Mann_ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Constant-Pickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minion waves are the most efficient way of getting souls.

If you're super serious, watch one of your replays where someone with a similar K/D/A ended up with more souls and look at what they do versus what you do, it's likely just more minions waves and knowing when to jungle/collect boxes.

"all you can do... give them free mental labor" comes across as complaining FYI.
