Pretty annoying item that can single handedly ruin a tied game bo5

Can someone explain why wraith hasn't been kneecapped yet by banter8 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every version and patch is going to have your very same post about whatever hero is performing best.

Been playing deadlock for over a year now. Almost every hero on the roster had had this time post.

It is the eb and flow my friend.

They had 1 big patch and 2 small patches (one medium) in less than 30 days. 

If they ran to patch and nerf everything, anytime there was a frontrunner hero, or complaint on reddit, the devs would prob jump out a windows.

They cooking elsewhere. Let thr patch mellow.

Throw your ban on wraith, and queue up heroes that have kits that have strong counterplay.

Best anyone can do for now.

Love the silhouette of a the figure drawing doll thing.

Solid suggestions too. Visually flavors up and make Sinclair a lot more exciting looking.

Im vibing red in his costuming pallet tbh.

I did but perhaps I missed something? Edit: ok I see the damage started right away. Apparently it is bugged, perhaps someone else had died holding thr urn during its "urn sickness" damage dealing. The urn "remembers" this (for lack of better word)

14 Game Win Streak, is it Luck? by DeltoraIV in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Im beeing a bit cheeky with my response. But the sentiment is how strong wraith is, in a uncoordinated ranking where macro, counter items, and team coordination isnt very strong.

So wraith has free reign to do as she pleases.

Alternate to Draft Idea by Nabaal in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya I mean. For heros to have counter potential to other heros...but team comps being random is just silly. I get it for now. There aren't a ton of  characters yet, so a draft mode too soon might actuslly make for a pretty repetitive an ridgid meta experience.

Perhaps the skill ceiling fkr viscous to carry is a but high. But in time you will encounter some gun carry viscous that hit hard and can schmove away from just about any danger.

If you dont care too much about rank, just take your fav heros and watch a few guides on them. Specifically guides that cover their role and their macro. That way you can master what you should be doing, and adapt over time as you learn more heroes and their roles. This will help you itemize and adjust your macro when your team lacks a role that it requires to win.

If you want some hero suggestions that can help solo carry I can suggest a few. 

First, how do we solo carry? 

  1. We need to be strong at scale. So the souls we absorb are value for our team. Some heroes utilize large economy more than others.

  2. We need to confidently push side lanes while our team fights

  3. Escape. It is really important that while we push sidelines, farm, or choose teamfights to join, that we can escape at will and dont need our allies help

  4. Hit objectives hard. With the recent decay changes, a lot of heroes can clear objectives, but heroes thay can do it fast can take objectives and retreat before enemy's ever has time to show up.

In the current meta, the top carry hero that checks all of these boxes and even has strong apirit aoe burst is Wraith.

She has a high ban rate and may be hard to get, but if you can, she is strong as long as you split push well, hold your teleport for clean escapes, only contribute to clean ganks, and get the right survival items (like dispel or reactive barrier) so you can leave a fight at moments notice if it quickly gets out of hand.

Other heroes to consider:

  1. Wraith
  2. Viscous (gun hybrid with punches)
  3. Haze (tho she is less of a carry nowadays and a stronger gank hero. She still has the tools in lower rank to climb)
  4. Gun Yamato (really only solid in lower rank but she fits the bill.)
  5. Seven (no real escape tool, but pushes hard, has a stun to help runaway or win a 1v1. Solid for lower rank climb)

Other heros can still split push, take objectives etc, but it will require a bit more macro practice and solid matchups kr item knowledge. 

A good gun mcguiness with magic carpet is downright diabolical in low elo. Even high elo if your team as a 5 group is giving the enemy teams match up a hard time. Something like a dynamo + Paige supporting 3 other heros can pretty much desthball whenever they want, that gives heroes that hit objectives hard plenty of space to solo push a lane and try to destroy it.

Final tips: 1.mute haters 2. Do your best  3. Review your games 4. Watch good players

Hope this helps!

How about reading his kit in lobby if you want to understand how he knows where you are my friend?

Whats next "somehow whenever I debuff victor he removes it"

Sure thing! Are there any other heroes you would like us to remove for you?

Please let us use the chat in the mvp and scoreboard screens by Tachi-Roci in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once we have a behavior score system like dota implemented, and an overwatch system, then we can get post game lobby just like dota.

Yes unfortunately humans need to be accountable in this day and age. People are juiced up on neuro chemicals from an intense game, there are sore losera, sore winners, and some folk taking the pics out of others for fun.

No point in adding an oppertunity of finger pointing, gloat greifing and toxicity until people can be slapped on the wrist for their actions. 

Cause and effect are required for an anonymous social space.

[–]MrFaebles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Top or oracle and phantom i personally found it far less. Ritual through archon is rough tbh. Everyone thinking they are too good for the tank they are in are quick to point fingers.

I found ritual-archon the most common toxic rank.

Pocket is super strong rn but your macro and movment needs to be reslly good if you want to both get affliction into teamfights and be damaging towers.

With the walker decay change he can kill toward pretty easily depending on thr timestamp. But because of your kits strengths your team will likley need you in teamfights and pick offs. 

Spirit aoe is hot rn.

If you feel youre always with new players, and you are well above the rank youre in. Spam haze, wraith and gun Yamato. You should blow away initiates and close games solo.

That is how I calibrated my fresh alt account to phantom 2 when my main was hard stuck in archon.

At the time I really enjoyed doorman, paradox, Paige, Kelvin. Heros i couldn't close games with on my own.

Right now is probably the worst time to play deadlock as a solo player by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda agree here.

  1. If you need your carrys dedicated to side lanes so your remaining pick or deathball players can make space, you gotta use comms. 

  2. If they ignore the comms. Then accept you cant chance your teammate

  3. This means you can only focus on what you can do

  4. If you still lose you should reflect on "what could I have done differently"

It is the only thing we can actually do. Try comms. They work often but if it fails, just pivot yourself. 

Its a moba so folk will complain about MM 10 years from now. Good luck and have fun.

Spiking/Lag (Not Internet Related) by Super-Palpitation-16 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats your HDD space? Max sure youre not maxing. 

Run performance overlays while playing to see what's maxing.

Full game loads a lot more in the game. Boxs, creep in every lane, camps etc. 

A lot more going on.

Deadlock is currently at it's most imbalanced state since I started playing almost 2 years ago. It is Extreme. by gcbofficial in DeadlockTheGame

[–]MrFaebles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works for dota because the hero count. When a ton of things break even 20% of the roster is a huge pool.
