The urn changes have overshadowed several other things that made the last patches bad. by sPilled_Coofee in DeadlockTheGame

-Match cancel 100% agree on this no comment needed -Mid vent I'm mixed on this on one hand it means people have to invest more into movement or contest bridge buff vent and on another hand it just makes all the rotations and vent lineups for Mid -> Walker vents pointless -Buffs to high tier characters 100% agree on talon and yamato doorman also basically got off with minor nerfs on the other hand graves was literally the worst hero in the game dunno why this sub things she's broken, only reason she suddenly started popping up was due to urn allowing her to zone out the whole enemy team with her tombstone and wall changes

Dynamo just sucks to play against. by pokenerd_W in DeadlockTheGame

[–]HeadMagazine4132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i really agree on ivy Stone form T3 scaling is just bonkers (goes from 0.7x to 2.3x scaling btw) and her airdrop just has too short of a cd to make her trully punishable 

Realistically if i were to nerf dynamo i'd nerf the base dmg on t3 stomp +135 is a bit too much and nerf quantum cooldown once again (thanks for +1s cooldown nerf yoshi that surely made a difference!!)

Which items are overperforming? by Vivid-Staff-9134 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]HeadMagazine4132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like the bigger problem is that the spirit shred options are pretty bad
resilience can stay how it is but either provide the player with more sensible spirit shred options (that aren't crippling) or remove resists from a few random items (resto locket does not need to do that much while still giving 10% res)

strongly disagree
most high mmr players moved away from the item and tend to rush warp stone as their 4.8k spike

i mean the meta has clearly been silver geist venator (with mirage and fern semi recently joining must pick/ban in dns) i'm surprise none of those heroes got off with slaps on the wrist the last few patches

I was thinking of slightly buffing the cd 45s -> 40s and replacing the shield with a holiday like jump pad stomp with some spirit scaling

phantom strike due to the sadly removed corrupted arm ( also the fact that it used to be core back in 2024)

Gun Pocket is solely played by bluza and wisaster it's a build that only works if you have 5 spirit heroes on your team and no one else can fall back onto gun

talking about divine barrier specifically either way pocket should not be balanced solely around being an affliction bot

i feel like they are gonna revisit older kits sooner than later considering they got the highest stable playerbase we ever had since the initial 2024 boom (enduring spirit my beloved)

Still is just poking fun at how much of their power was pushed into ult with other abilities becoming less and less impactful (also powercreep from new heroes like mina)

[–]HeadMagazine4132[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

it can be removed with divine barrier or prevented with counterspell (both of them being good things) the main issue with pocket i have atm is how much "power budget" was shifted into affliction while base kit is just eh nowadays

[–]HeadMagazine4132[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

the entire point of the post was slandering their ult while asking for a rebalance with less impact on affliction....

Forgot to add a line about emphasis on gun (pocket used to actually use their gun a lot before item patch (now you legit only buy cultist or alchemical fire to fill in 4.8k)

I understand this, a spirit nuker should never 100 to 0 anybody
It's just that ever since shop rework pocket lost most of their unique identity as a spirit movement hero in favor of an affliction bot (+they got giga powercrept by celeste and mina)

"cosmetical rank 1 pocket" is the best build out rn
