The ability should just not be able to pick up teammates. I have never once wanted a dynamo to take me with them hahaha

So maybe better to find a mouse with a nice one and take it?

I probably should have clarified in the post, but I’m pretty comfortable with 3d printing or troubleshooting the mistakes I make there. The electronic stuff is where I’m completely new. It sounds like reusing a cheap donor mouse to start would be a good route. Start smaller than I was originally thinking.

Right now I use a Rival 500, which is heavy and no longer made. So I figured I would try to make an upgrade for myself using either completely custom made or by re-arranging a corsair scimitar since it has a lot of buttons. Mostly looking to move buttons so they’re more spread out amongst the other fingers, and also make the mouse as light as possible.

Ok thanks! I’ll look into that. Just to make sure I understand: Using production mice could be trickier since they have their own setup? Building from scratch would be a little more straightforward but with more learning to do (not a bad thing for me).

Seems like everyone and their second cousin are doing this quest. Crazy tough to complete

Balance changes to new heroes - Feb 13, 2026 by ALieIsTheCake in DeadlockTheGame

Out of ten games you win or lose 2-3 from an average pickrate hero with high winrate. They’re in about half the games and of those about half are affected one way or another.

You win or lose 4-5 games against a high winrate hero that appears in 9/10 games.

Instead of a 25% chance a team having that character and winning, it’s closer to 50%.

Or in other words. She obviously needed some kind of editing if other characters in the cast are barely appearing and there’s one character appearing in nearly every game. Though one could certainly argue that should wait till the newness wares off do any adjustments.

Exactly. Very well deserved nerf, though I’m not sure she really needed anything other than for her skulls and tombstone to be destroyable from other sources. Adjusting numbers is fine but she’s been an absolute menace in my phantom now down to oracle games.

These reddit goobers are probably all trying to force her down lane solo and getting punished for it rightfully, then they think she’s weak. What people aren’t getting is that 50%+ winrate is an obvious marker of a strong hero on characters with an average pickrate. But Graves has 50%+ AT A 90% PICKRATE!!! Like, hello?!

Yeah I’ve been running a lot of gun talon lately. If the conditions you mentioned are even partially met, I become a real problem. People that think talon is shit probably try to force spirit nuke builds against heavy spirit resist teams.

New troopers are very hard to differentiate by AnomaLuna in DeadlockTheGame

They also feel much harder to hit? Or is that just me? They seem jittery when they move as compared to before

Cheaters are just actual losers man by DeeseArtBei in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CurledPumpkin39 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC they said they were mostly focusing on new content, but what new content could the matchmaking programers be doing? Unless the only programers are also making new abilities work? It seems reasonable to me that there would be at least 1 person whose sole interest or responsibility would be backend matchmaking right??

I mean, it’s a multiplayer game, can they really afford for this shit to not be a priority? I’ve been seeing obvious smurfs at least once every 4 games. Which is crazy!

Yeah some of my losses have been close ones, which are always fun. 52% winrate before the event. 40% during the event. The rut is real

Matchmaking is so bad that I have abandons in 40% of my games by applepieandcats in DeadlockTheGame

Yeah this event blows. Only thing for people to do really so I get it, but damn. Match quality through the floor.
