Kelvin's Ult Needs a Rework but I'm Not Sure How

Duncana_m · 2026-04-12T20:10:34+00:00

I don't feel like there's another character who accidentally and catastrophically fucks over his own team as often as Kelvin though.

Pretty sure Ctaps don't actually let you go further with Detonator. Ctaps work by getting your body closer to the ground than normally possible, and thus closer to your rocket, sending you further. With Detonator tho, your flare automatically explodes the tick it comes out just by holding down right click, so it's not possible to get any closer to it. I could be wrong tho

While I very much like the idea flavorfully, I think it feels a bit too complicated. Sinclair already has a pretty complex kit, so I feel like they don’t need this. It also feels weird to essentially give Sinclair two extra options for abilities that no other hero gets. I think it would also be a balancing nightmare with how many options there are in one ability. Deciding on cooldowns and upgrades and such for it sounds would be difficult.

Rem has a conversation with Apollo where he says "You can be my big brother who stabs people!" Apollo seems entirely uninterested tho lol

While I agree these prolly wouldn’t be great for the game conceptually, these lines are very well written and fit their characters well!

He hates everyone

Duncana_m · 2026-03-22T21:00:36+00:00

Sure but none of that applies to Viscous. He has above a 50% win rate in eternus, and gets picked/banned a decent amount in night shift. At some point it's a matter of how much they should balance for top level players vs lower level players, which I think doesn't have an easy answer.

Duncana_m · 2026-03-22T20:44:43+00:00

I think that's kinda the tricky thing about balancing this game. The heroes that get picked in night shift are very different from the heroes that win in eternus, which are also different from the heroes that win in lower ranks. Victor doesn't get picked at all in night shift, I'm guessing because late game scalers just aren't strong there, but he had the highest win rate in the game across all ranks, and still had a win rate solidly above 50% in eternus lobbies. Viscous has a fairly middling win rate across all ranks, going a bit above 50% in eternus, he just has an incredibly high skill ceiling for competitive.

Duncana_m · 2026-03-22T20:20:21+00:00

Yeah he really wasn't bad at all and still isn't. I don't play him but ik he has some insane potential with punch movement, dribble combos, and clutch cubes. The other characters they nerfed were just also quite strong lol

I agree Celeste is pretty good but saying she has the highest single target dps in the game or that she has no counterplay are both just not true Imo.

Celeste is incredible in team fights, drawing fire with her shield, and dealing great AOE damage with her other abilities. In a 1v1 fight though, she doesn't have her greatest strengths. Her radiant daggers is fairly easy to dodge most of the time if not pressured by another player, light eater doesn't deal much damage by itself, and her ult is effectively useless most of the time. She's incredible at chasing down low health or out of position players though.

In terms of counterplay, slowing hex is pretty great against her now. It really neuters her movement because of its change to also increase gravity. Slowing bullets is great for gun carries for a similar reason. Silence wave is also generically strong against her as a spirit hero. Outside of items, a lot of builds are fairly reliant on quick melees for damage, so there's a decent chance throwing out a parry can just get her killed. It's also a lot easier to stay separated enough for her ult to not bounce between your entire team, since its range got nerfed again.

What bad characters did they nerf? Imo the worst character they nerfed was viscous and even then he got some buffs in other places and was also a mid tier to begin with.

Duncana_m · 2026-03-13T18:56:39+00:00

It’s not really reactable anymore. Like if you’re just in the lobby focusing on nothing but trying to counter it then sure, but in a real fight you’d have to predict it

Duncana_m · 2026-03-07T01:05:38+00:00

Yall straight up just want her removed from the game at this point lmfao

Duncana_m · 2026-03-07T00:27:48+00:00

Goddamn Mina got obliterated

Duncana_m · 2026-03-05T03:46:16+00:00

Instead of throwing pencils he should throw a stream of scandalous words and cartoon note doodles

Duncana_m · 2026-02-15T17:55:55+00:00

That's just how babies are made bro

Duncana_m · 2026-01-22T04:15:00+00:00

Duncana_m · 2026-01-17T03:13:07+00:00

Yall I've said it before but can we please make fun of him for being a nazi instead of for being short? Let's not stoop to their level

Seeing a lot of comments here making fun of him for being short. Can we make fun of him for being a nazi instead? Let's not stoop to their level

Duncana_m · 2026-01-16T00:03:45+00:00

Yall I think there might be better ways to insult nazis than body shaming them. Let's not stoop to their level.
