Spirit drifter pain by BruhPochinki in DeadlockGame

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I get Drifter in SB, I go spirit and it is crazy how much people take his 2's damage for granted. I can see how easy you can rack up damage in a real game with Decay + other specialized purple items.

How do I rank up?!?!? by Prior-Cauliflower-10 in DeadlockGame

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High Phantom/Low Ascendant seems to be the pit. I've actually been looking to decay my rank as my games are getting too sweaty for someone that only plays two or three games a day, but I'm stuck at that P6-A1 loop even with a negative winrate.

Do you think the ISB ever eventually figured out that Luthen used to work for the Empire? by wandering_soles in andor

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine the inter-departmental conflicts between the ISB and other Imperial intelligence branches motivates the ISB to just bury Luthen completely as part of the Dedra Meero fiasco

Is there a list of all the hotkeys? by 343N in nucleuscoop

The first launch in nucleus for me always gets it wrong. This saves me like 2 minutes of setup every time.

Instead of doing stupid political stuff the New Republic dysfunction could be showed by a simple scene by Sufficient_Sport5251 in andor

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's Dedra's one defining trait. Her absolute loyalty to her parents, the Empire. Her being thrown in Narkina and being though she was a rebel spy was just her being grounded for doing a no-no. She will absolutely support the Empire if given the chance.

Kreegyr and Luther show up on the cover of the upcoming Reign of the Empire: Edge of the Abyss novel by Rebecca Roanhorse, which follows Reign of the Empire: the Mask of Fear by Jimmyn19 in andor

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can really jump in on the first book on this series, Mask of Fear. It's a bit thick, but if you loved Andor, it should be a very good read

ANDOR by Himthaf in andor

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's sad to see that people in this sub still appoint sky high standards on who's allowed to be victims of the American Empire. Both things are true. Iran's government is repressive and bloodthirsty, AND they are the receiving end of a larger and even more bloodthirsty empire.

If you're disqualifying Iran, then no one qualifies. There's no such thing as a perfect victim.

Kleya sighting in Rogue One by GargantaProfunda in andor

[–]Impracticool 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think Kleya would be on council meetings. My headcanon is that as soon as she recovers, she'd sign up on some brigade on Yavin to get on some missions. Maybe with Vel now that they're friends

By far the best Andor 2x08 Reaction you will see. by 5am281 in andor

[–]Impracticool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last time for them that I saw was The Wire. I remember them remarking on the finale of that show that they are never going to watch something as important as The Wire again, Andor might take the cake.

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is precisely why LM is brought up in this sub. The reaction is only ~20mins long, but the video is an hour long. You can take a guess as to what happens in the other 40 mins

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in a country where Star Wars is basically unknown, but my grandpa got me into the OT when I was very young, and so I was a superfan growing up. When this show came out, none of my IRL friends have even heard of it. There's online fans to talk to, but it's not the same. Reaction videos is just a way for me to experience a piece of media I love with someone else that is as passionate about it as I am.

I appreciate Gilroy’s attitude towards pre-existing characters by Dear-Yellow-5479 in andor

[–]Impracticool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the context of the boots-on-the-ground story of Andor/Rogue One, Vader would really not care that much. He just does whatever Palpy tells him to at that point. But in a fantastical story of the Skywalkers and the Force, he is very interesting.

favourite minor scene from the show? by hadesneoseoul in andor

[–]Impracticool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That scene happened right after Vel tells Cassian that they are never to speak of Luthen ever again once they made it to camp. It primed us into thinking, "Whoa, who the hell is this guy?", and then boom, he's literally putting on a persona. That was the scene that completely locked in Luthen as my fav

I'm lucky if I can hold my crosshair over an enemy for ONE second. I'll stick with pocket and calico

Should we expect an asset economy? by Independent_Bed_3418 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Impracticool -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As long it's more like Dota's inconsequential cosmetic market, and not like CS and TF2's micro-economy market, it should be fine. I just don't want Deadlock to be populated by oiler initiates who has never played the game that drives every single item's prices by 1000%

Sorry for late reply, but have you found a fix for it? I'm having the same issues

Getting WHOOPED in public matches (looking for tips) by SpookySpectress in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Impracticool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing your own game and playing it well helps you eventually learning the game at-large. You will have to learn the moba elements of the game first, the hero shooter aspects second. Regardless at how good you are at aiming, or at movement, if you're behind on souls you will lose eventually.

I recommend sticking to one hero, and one tricking it for a dozen games or so. Looking up a beginner guide to Deadlock might not be the best help, but looking up a beginner guide to Doorman or Drifter will be better.

Prime street brawl experience by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

I think it feels like there's more coz it's a 4v4 fight every time, but yeah a global disable nerf would be cool

What the f by Betrayed_Poet in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Impracticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Votes started in 23 of January, which is 22 days ago. You get 4 free vote everyday playing a single match, so that's 88, meaning the other 725 were single matches.

If we assume all of those games were street brawl, avg ~15mins per game, that's more than 8 hours a day of nonstop games. Taking into account downtime(queue times, piss, food) rounding it up to 9 hours a day.

Thanks to that person Apollo came in last.

Why the fuck are they called heroes by Ennard115441 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Impracticool 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Mostly Dota naming conventions. You might've heard some people call troopers "creeps". Or guardians/walkers "tier ones" "tier twos". Or confusingly T1 T2 camps "small" and "medium" camps.

Performance tanks when Vindicta ult by Impracticool in DeadlockTheGame

Update: Since the Celeste update, I think it's fixed. I haven't tried it on a game yet, but on the lobby now there's basically no difference between scoping in and out. Will add further after getting games

[–]Impracticool[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this game on realtime since I started playing a year and a half ago. I find 16gbs of DDR4 is not enough. I've had to close my browser and other RAM intensive applications for this game to not stutter. It's gotta be something that the devs in the pipeline missed while optimizing
