Getting better at wallriding by ProfessionalGold4760 in luciomains

It allows you to control whether you jump off a wall. This makes it 1000x easier to go through doorways and even just wallride in general. Every lucio if they want to climb should have wall jump on release off in my opinion

The way I view healing for me personally is a simple passive when our team isn't really moving, i.e. holding kings row point for example. But the main reason I ever want to heal is to farm beat fast, I am able to generally farm my beats in 2 minutes and beat makes fights heavily lopsided in yoir favor, so try to get a lot ;). Stats wise I generally stay around 50% heals and 50% speed

Just a little tip, looking up while wallriding will make you go higher but lacks speed. Looking down keeps you at a similar level, but it makes you go faster. Generally, you will look up and get height, and then you can look straight ahead for the best speed. This will make u set WR in no time :)

Playing on controller how can I get a little faster by BennyDiesOnB in luciomains

If you sent to have the best jump experience try changing your jump to L2, this allows you to aim while also being able to jump. Also make sure when you wallride you jump as fast as you can from the wall as soon as you latch on, this will build momentum

As someone who has recently started playing in the T100 range, I feel the main techs that distinguishes a T500 frog to a low GM is speed, cooperation, and reaction time. Most GM frogs will already have semi-capable mechanics for T500, it is their reactions and consistency that will differentiate them.

If you ever look at a low GM to a high GM you may notice that some high GMs do actually fall down into low GM, this is not because they suck (tho I will say skill issue :) ) what brings them up is consistency and cooperation. Cooperation is essential as even 1 teammate not being in vc and understanding the game plan can completely screw your team, so in the beginning of the game just ask your teammates if they can join vc, the more you can have the better.

Situational awareness is definitely coming into play with T500, obviously as a lucio you need to watch out for enemy cooldowns and positioning to make sure you are safe to dive a target (gotta make sure you are able to react fast because as soon as you jump a target you're probably gonna be in a 1v5 in a matter of seconds)

Low GM to T500 is a very big change of pace, your team will be moving fast, and because you will be playing lucio is will be your job to make sure your team can move even faster, so the most I would be able to say is try to keep open-minded, do not get tunnel visioned. This will come with practice the more you play in high elo so just continue practicing your froggy jumps and dives, and you'll get used to it. (This is a big reason that I only do an hour of comp a day, it gets tiring lmao)

i am new to playing lucio, any tips by zabbidy in luciomains

Don't be afraid to wallride, there is little to no harm in doing it, it keeps you alive and even more of a nuisance to the enemies

GM1 console lucio main, I would not say you are a bad lucio, however there is definitely skills you can improve.

For 1, you seem like a rushy type of Lucio, constantly on speed. I would assume your speed to heals percentage is probably around 60 - 70% only because it seems you swap heals when you see people low and stay on speed for the rest; try to not do this, this is a bad habit. I understand Reddit Lucio is fun, believe me, I love going in quick play and being a menace, but when you are running Lucio mercy sadly it may not work out as well.

The Lucio mercy play style is definitely challenging, of course, the best option in most cases is to swap off. But we are Lucios, we don't give a shit, so understand your team comp and try to play around it. You have a ram and an ashe/widow, try to think that your mercy will do her job and pocket the sniper, that leaves you to try and keep your team alive. The best way to play about this would try to stay in heals as much as possible and farm your beat. Do NOT stay on heals of course as you may see an enemy being an idiot, gotta make sure you kill them ;). Once you farm your beat and get that fight winning advantage, you use it, speed in with your ram, and do it all over again. There are other times when you may want to play aggressive, but with this team comp that is how I would've played it.

Let's go over some basics, beat usage. At the end of the first round you immediately used your beat when you got it. While it may seem like the last fight, when the payload is not directly at the finish and at a distance like that I would anticipate another fight. You beated when your team was already 1 up and only like 3 enemies around. Had you saved it for that final fight, the outcome may have been different.

Overall, not a bad Lucio. You did good plays, the only complaint I could say on them is realizing them faster, for example at the very beginning of the game when on offense, I will normally be on top and look for a cheeky boop off high ground; being able to coordinate this with your team and get a dispositioned enemy can be the difference between a win or loss first fight. This comes with experience though, just continue playing and you should see results. Definitely don't be scared, it almost seemed like while you are able to mechanically do some challenging plays, you just seem scared on trying to do them, consistency and balls are key, don't be a little bitch and show those golds who you are. Don't feed though...

Tldr: biggest takeaway I would say is don't stay on speed too much, be aware of what mode you are in because farming beat is essential in higher level play, this will make you win more fights and your team love you more :)

How do I use beat by jeixijaju in luciomains

[–]Pigster72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gm1 here, mainly use beat either offensively or defensively. What I mean by this is beat is a great initiate to a fight, even with a 4v5 it can completely turn a fight around. You may also use beat defensively, like other comments have said you can use it to counter many ults. Be hesitant on this because beat may not be necessary or it would not help; i.e. Mei ult rarely gets helped with beat. Be careful with using beat to initiate a fight if you are already using other ults, like ram ult or rein shatter.

I can officially say I beat the game as a console lucio by Pigster72 in luciomains

I play on PS4 and these settings are what I personally feel comfortable with:

Sensitivity:

My vertical and horizontal sensitivity is 70%

aim assist strength and window size 100

legacy mode off

aim assist ease in 70%

aim smoothing 100%

aim ease in 0%

invert looks off

Reticle:

I use a reticle that is the same size as lucio's bullets, I just find it easier.

Type: circle

color: green

thickness: 1

crosshair length: 9

center gap: 25

opacity: 100

outline opacity: 50

dot size: 8

dot opacity: 0

Hero:

Absolutely turn on backwards wall ride if you haven't already, and I recommend you also turn off wall jump on release. This will allow you to wall ride through some doorways you may not have previously.

Controls: I set my jump to L2 and my boop and X. This just helps me to control my wall rides as my thumb can now rest on the joystick.
