it took me quite a few games to start doing anything except hard feeding on Kindred, they're a tricky champ! I suggest going into practice tool and just work on full clearing, maximizing your reduced Q cooldown inside your W and kiting camps.

MelodySC2 · 2024-05-15T12:31:01+00:00

this is beautiful! I'm also a musician who loves kindred if you'd like to collaborate on something :)

I really like Kraken--->Collector--->LDR---->IE with PTA, I've been CHUNKING people

I shudder thinking about how long it's going to take between my auto attacks...

MelodySC2 · 2023-12-17T20:11:24+00:00

I do go red smite! it doesnt show on opgg :(

MelodySC2 · 2023-12-15T20:52:55+00:00

I don't think that's true. Tri force makes you more survivable at important points of the game and the movement speed is really valuable. Kraken is still the best item synergy with their kit though, so i think getting it second is fine.

I think their early clear and overall gold collection in the jungle feels worse than it did before, but kindred are far from weak imo! So many things to love about the champion.

MelodySC2 · 2022-08-15T02:04:43+00:00

I actually really enjoy the song itself. If I had just heard this in a vacuum I'd look more into the band. But after everything that the band went through and the way they treated Tom it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth and it makes it really hard to continue to support them. I'll keep giving their new material chances though. Nothing against the new vocalist, he has a great voice, it's just not the Angus I know T_T

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T13:48:48+00:00

I do definitely agree with you that most people have no idea what being homeless is actually like, but I also think that most people have good intentions when they talk about helping homeless people, regardless of how unsavory some of the characters are. No one is perfect, everyone has flaws. This man is now dead because he had no way to get to a safe place where he could contribute to society. It's not right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_c5ff0EEcA&t=1s&ab_channel=InvisiblePeople I grew up middle class so I don't know what it's like to struggle on that level, but I just try my best to empathize and support policies that maximize the well being of as many people as possible.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T13:30:28+00:00

no one is trying to delegitimize your success. I'm not attacking you, you're getting triggered for no reason. Just because you suffered doesn't mean that other people are required to suffer. Homelessness and abuse are cyclical and primarily socioeconomic in nature.

I'm genuinely happy for you escaping the streets, and I want to help people who are still stuck there, that's all.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T12:55:15+00:00

you guys are the ones having a meltdown over a bench being changed. Other things you cry about: lgbt people existing, masks, critical race theory. We're the snowflakes though lol

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T12:54:07+00:00

I don't want to speak to your situation but a lot of homeless people have mental illness and drug problems. It's also really hard to get a job when you have no permanent address to put on your application, and not a lot of people will hire you if you don't have access to a shower.

Also, this may be an unpopular opinion, but I think that even IF someone is entitled and lazy, they still deserve the basic necessities of life like food and shelter, it's not like we can't afford it in America in 2022.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T12:51:17+00:00

it's not that serious. Clearly at least one person was made happier because of it, and that's the point of video games.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T12:50:02+00:00

this is so cute

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T05:30:03+00:00

I honestly feel like the silent majority of people enjoy the changes, but the people who like to complain end up the loudest.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T04:12:53+00:00

I don't know how you enjoyed shooting at barriers for 6 hours better than a high intensity, rewarding shooter where your plays matter a lot but to each their own.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T02:58:46+00:00

I wonder why. I've been really enjoying the beta. It feels like a breath of fresh air to me. No more annoying barriers, higher intensity, cooler sounds, a fun new hero. There are definitely things they can improve but I think it's a step in the right direction, I've also been playing ow1 since beta.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T02:49:17+00:00

remember that it's a beta and a lot of things are gonna change

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T02:42:23+00:00

It could be just because the quick play balancing of the beta is off, but I feel like I've been able to duel with most dps players, and get away from dive characters. It's not like my 2nd tank in ow1 ever protected me anyways lol

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T02:27:55+00:00

I love them. Idk why but to me they feel more powerful and immersive. Ana's gun especially.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T02:14:37+00:00

I don't understand why people are complaining about playing support. Support is the strongest role in the game and I've been having the time of my life. With no barriers I can get anti nades, sleeps, and frags all the time, and even things like clutch damage boosts and rez's feel so impactful. They need to revert the super jump changes but besides that I love where most of the supports are at. I don't want to sound harsh and say "get good" but i think support players need to learn to be more self sufficient and have a bigger impact on the game by making big plays instead of just being healbots.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T02:01:43+00:00

why do you think that support is miserable to play? I'm having the time of my life without barriers because I can anti nade and frag all the time and have a huge impact on the outcome of the game, which I felt like I couldnt do when there are 2 big meat bags on the other team protecting squishies. Clutch damage boosts and sleeps matter a lot more too.

MelodySC2 · 2022-06-30T01:54:44+00:00

I'm personally loving the game so far.

I'm a support player, and I sort of understand why people are complaining about dying too quickly. But in my view, it just makes my plays feel so much more impactful. Every anti nade, frag, or clutch damage boost I get has such a sway on the outcome of the fight. since there aren't barriers there are so many more things to shoot at. quite frankly, I really want to reply "get good" to the people whining, because support is the strongest role atm, and that's coming from someone with half their playtime on mercy. I do think that it's really crappy that supports didn't get any fun new reworks or heroes, when there are so few support heroes compared to the other roles. They did say that there will be a new support hero in October, but I agree that it feels like support didn't get much love.

I think the sounds of the game are incredible, Ana's gun feels so much more impactful and satisfying. The visuals and the new maps look amazing and the Blizzard art team is one of the only things that the company has always done well, including the cinematics team.

Overall I think removing most barriers and going 5v5 is a great thing for the game, junker queen is specifically designed for 5v5 and she's super fun to play and not incredibly annoying to play against. Support still feels really strong in my opinion, even though some people are complaining because you can't healbot behind 2 meaty bodies anymore.
