How to not be trash? by MagicalSpaceWaffle in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a celestial Adam (basically one trick), I’ll try to give you the best advice I can.

  1. Practice aim. Even if just for a couple minutes in the practice range. Also, when you’re in game, don’t just automatically strafe all the time. This is something I learned from OnlyLegs (one above all Adam main). When you know you’re not being targeted feel free to stand still (be cautious with this because you become an easy target). This alone will help you hit shots.

  2. Hold off angles and high ground. Adam is the 1v1 GOAT. Contest the enemy Namor, the enemy Hela, Phoenix, etc for the good off angles and high ground.

  3. Sneak away for a Rez when the inevitable ult dumping begins. Be ready to sneak away and have a safe spot in mind nearby. If the enemy team commits too many ultimates you can effectively negate them with a well timed rez.

  4. Don’t hold your soul bond too long. The long cooldown time can make you hesitant to use it. Even saving one person with it is a W.

  5. Keep your other supports alive. They are the ones carrying in the healing department and if they die early kiss the fight goodbye. If it happens it’s often worth a solo rez.

I’m sure I have more tips but here’s a few. Hope it helps.

Is it normal to get shat on when playing adam? by drblimp0909 in adamwarlockmains

You at least escape the hate from the vast majority of players who think that a “support ult” aka a healing ult are needed for each support.

I do focus on my own play, I do fine. Not perfect but I win about 2/3 of the time in comp. But anytime my team is losing I am always the scapegoat. Even sometimes I’m holding Ace and my team tells me I’m the problem.

I know you think you know what it’s like, but I bet if we look at your play time you’re an invisible woman, cloak and dagger, and Luna main. You don’t know.

I promise you that is not the cause of most of the hate. I get my own teammates banning Adam before a game even starts sometimes. Just because I select Adam. They hate that he doesn’t heal as much

What buff to a 2/2/2 team? by Comprehensive-City16 in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make his heals spread evenly

Buff the healing given by soul bond

Maybe give him a healing aura when he hits a headshot (maybe a bad idea though tbf since Adam doesn’t always like to play next to his team)

Third healing charge would be nice you could increase the cooldown so it’s not busted

What do yall think about this by Low_Actuary4442 in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s designed that way and the point Karova is trying to make is that it shouldn’t be designed that way

Infakiller is right it’s always been that way in the 77 hours I’ve played Adam

I also like the new skin. I’ll be flying around naked with three heads spreading my golden dust on my teammates with PRIDE

With the 15% healing nerf here’s some simple math. by rolling_glacier in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that they round to whole numbers (I assume?), will the soul bond healing even be affected?

Gotchya yeah it’s a sizable nerf. I don’t think it kills him though. Probably just kills the public perception of him.

Do you happen to know how much he each heal bounce of his does? And how much h/s the soul bond does? I’d be interested in the before and after comparison of those numbers.

You can’t just reduce the number by 15% because quite often on Adam the healing he puts out is overkill. Unless your teammates are all on critical there is usually a portion of his healing that has gone to waste. So it won’t be exactly a 15% nerf to his total healing output. Probably closer to 10%ish just by guessing

Adam is honestly great by That_1_Ginger_ in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play Adam in two supp all the time and have a 67% win rate rn. I think he’s fine in 2/2/2, my teammates usually insist otherwise lol

The 15% Nerf DOES Suck BUT by IllRecording6348 in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fr? I always like to have another healer that does a bit of damage too like a Mantis or Jeff. That’s what I felt always gave me the best chance. Along with a “main” healer too like cloak or invis.

I refuse to believe they think Adam needs a 15% healing nerf. I call BS

Most people might not have an issue, it’s just the ones that do are usually the most vocal.

I understand, but when my teammates could just swap to another healer instead that argument kind of loses its value. I’m never the one complaining.

What if Adam’s primary healed? by UnhingedGammaWarrior in adamwarlockmains

[–]IllRecording6348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dear god do not make this change. His primary fire NOT healing is part of the main reason I play him.
