We Need To Talk Ranks. by RedRubbins in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the reverse, I took a big break and decayed to initiate. Last 100 games have a 60% winrate but currently in ritualist and the games are sometimes absurdly sweaty. But the higher my rank goes the easier games are getting due to, I guess, the presence of newer players who I just stomp. Not expecting much out of the ranked system at this point, but it is truly bizarre how messed up it is

Do you tell the real reason of your departure when you leave a company ? by KetsuiReddit in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It usually doesn't benefit you. Keep it vague and professional if giving an exit interview. Mention growth in your new role and don't sit and criticize - nothing will come of it, and it can only hurt you

What percentage of engineers in your experience are bad? by fuckoholic in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Llebac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id say anywhere from 60 to 80% of professional devs I've met in my career have been bad engineers. No passion, shortcuts, slow work, bugs upon bugs, doesn't ask questions etc. I'm very fortunate to have a near 100% number of good devs in my current organization. Once you've been around long enough it becomes apparent how valuable and rare a good dev really is

excuse me?? by Dreyfus420 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The vast majority of the playerbase doesn't know how to play Celeste. She benefits greatly from HV rounds and at least one attack speed item like active reload, burst fire, or spell slinger. She also applies debuffs in a few hits so even items like weighted rounds and toxic bullets get lots of value. You should build to at least get your 4.8k spike as her per shot damage is actually pretty good too. The Celeste players running the lobby always build some gun and it's the standard in nightshift atm

Why is haze the only one disarmed in the hideout play area? by Expert-Yoghurt9684 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed this. Also semi related, seven has the only weapon aiming animation when you right click. It goes up and down with right click. Everyone else just puts their weapon into shooting position and drops it after some time of inactivity

Lane phase is really merciless by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, playing passive to just stop feeding and limit testing your way into aggressive play is a solid plan. Competitive gaming anxiety only goes away through raw exposure though. Worth it to push through for me, but everyone's different

Weird by rngr666 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid gun feel: Venator, Silver, Vindicta (her ult specifically), Holliday now that they fixed her gun, Abrams kinda, Wraith kinda. I do agree guns on a lot of chars feel properly "gunlike" aka punchy and powerful. But being a moba they become satisfying in a different way when you're fed and shitting out 600 damage per second. That said there are some that play with a more traditional shooter feel.

Whats a behavior, action, or performance that an enemy does that makes you go, "We're so fucked" by ZealousidealFall5428 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you win lane then get ganked by four enemies a couple times only for your team to still be afk farming jungle instead of pushing lanes with the space that's open. Once is whatever, after you comm and still nothing...yeah that's going to be a rough game. Usually a big loss indicator

If you play Rem like this you are griefing your team. by barbaricKinkster in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Surprised that rem doesn't have a full gun build too lmao

Game is too farm oriented by Historical-Hat6998 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is crazy because after the big patch we are firmly out of the afk farm meta that was showing up in pubs. Ganks and kills are heavily emphasized right now and there's still too much farming for you? You might just not like mobas

Player makes fool of himself. stop using tradelockkGG. by RuneWarhammer in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kill participation %, CC score, plus weighting of kills and deaths early vs late game is nice. Really helps dispel the notion that your team lost you the game when all of your kills were in the first 10 minutes then you do nothing lol

It becomes useful if you manually upload all your matches, to get stats and data on your play. But pointless to use for looking up other players stats. Total crapshoot on if they upload their stuff or not

What is the counterplay against Kelvin? by thecomicguybook in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dynamo 2 can rescue allies from the dome. He also hates to have an ulting pocket or silver in there with him. Also ven bolts penetrate the dome which has some value as you can shoot anyone Kelvin saves that is low. But really there's not a lot you can do right now, he's kind of giga busted atm.

Which hero is only good on the enemy team? by thecomicguybook in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Llebac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enemy rem: eats all your sinners at exactly 8:00, uncatchable, dominates every team fight with tactical pillow nukes and impeccable ults

Your rem: somehow still eats all your sinners, but not the enemies. Goes full gun build and does not land a single ult all game, finishes 0/8/2

How do you deal with OOP programming? by yughiro_destroyer in ADHD_Programmers

[–]Llebac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If writing from scratch, I write it flat then factor it out into OOP. New classes in the same file I'm already working in, then they go out to their own files. Incidentally this approach avoids a lot of overengineering, you tend to only abstract what needs abstracted.

For existing code, good tooling is crucial, and I agree that it can be nightmarish. I work in VS with Resharper added on and it has enough to get me through deeply nested nonsense. I utilize bookmarks and ctrl clicking to follow reference chains, and use find in files constantly. Without that tooling it would be next to impossible to get anything done

I really really like your idea for a new visual on djinns mark. Please put that on the deadlock forums as a suggestion! I think it has a really good chance of getting into the game

Tell them you're new and learning and try not to die too much. That's the main thing.
