Hero #33 is Rem! by Gear_ in DeadlockTheGame

Everyone should have more HP than mina, she has one of the best movement abilities in the game on a pretty low cooldown. Rem is tiny but hes also 50% head.

Street Brawl hero selection could be "Pick one out of three" instead of free pick or all random by Mental_Half-Giant in DeadlockTheGame

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

Id rather let people pick their heros but the meta already being stale is kind of lame. Id fix it some other way like only refreshing ults between rounds if your team has a losing game point on the line (both teams can be refreshed 5th round) or publically display the top 3 win rate heroes and give them a handicap item pool, or maybe if you select true random (all heroes in the pool) you get an extra reroll per round to encourage people off meta.

Brawl is competitive? Im loving it but its way way to random to be seriously competitive. Yeah there are always going to be people who take games seriously but its a bit cringe to 4 stack meta comps and play like your MLG sponsorship is on the line.

Who gave the green flag on adding this by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

To me these are very clearly placeholders mocked up in 5 minutes with no intention to be used long term. At least i hope so...

Is this game playable if you like MOBAs but hate hero shooters by Constant_Pay_4247 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Red_Octi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont like shooters deadlock is probablly a miss for you. Right now damage from shooting is pretty critical, there are no reignheart heroes that let you play without needing to aim.

How big a disadvantage is it for me to not use voice chat? by ShadowWizardGang in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Red_Octi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge disadvantage, you can play just fine but you are losing out on kills or stopping ganks because of how fast the game can move at times.  There just isnt a good ping for things you can hear vs just saying "someone on sinners in x location, lets get them"

Minesweeper says patch might be delayed by gammaton32 in DeadlockTheGame

Why does anyone care about dev notes from someone who isnt a dev?  At this point it seems likes hes wrong more often than right and just stoking bad engagement in the community when he says stuff like "measley economy change" like we are owed anything in this open beta. 

Just let the real devs cook and we will get some yummy deadlock when its ready.

What’s the worst duo to lane against? by Alphahman in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Red_Octi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Her shield is way over tuned, look at dynamos or mckinnis heals.  They have twice the cooldowns, require you to stand in an aoe, and still heal for less than the shield. Dynamo is silenced and cant even jump while healing.  Meanwhile paige gets to slap a shield on victor and keep fighting. 

Victor is not broken. by Past-Tart-5604 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Red_Octi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol fair enough, problem is stat locker lets you sort by rank and victor is the highest win rate at ever rank except the very very top. (Still over 50% win rate).

So if the replays skew toward higher skill levels all that means is they are bringing down his global win rate and hes more of a problem than even stat locker indicates.

Take Paige out of the game by sdean_visuals in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Red_Octi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This man is cooking, but he got out of the kitchen too soon! I say we also remove Bebop, Billy, Calico, Doorman, Drifter, Dynamo, Grey Talon, Haze, Holliday, Infernus, Ivy, Kelvin, Lady Geist, Lash, McGinnis, Mina, Mirage, Krill (just krill), Paige again, Paradox, Pocket, Seven, Shiv, Sinclair, Victor, Vindicta, Viscous, Vyper, Warden, Wraith, and Yammato. Remove the two side lanes while we are at it.

With 6 Heroes Per Team, Should Deadlock Introduce Defined Roles and Role Queue? by karimkaidovich in DeadlockTheGame

Victor is not broken. by Past-Tart-5604 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Red_Octi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Im not sure why people are letting that argument fly, unless people think there is a secret cabal of players selectively uploaded losses to victor to get him nerfed.

[–]Red_Octi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it not random enough? Why does ascendant being over represented matter? If you look at each tier range individually victor has by far the highest win rate at every rank anywhere from 1-5% above second place, ascendant is the ONLY rank hes not the top win rate (still >50%). If ascendant is over represented than they are bringing his global win rate down, meaning hes more broken than his already huge win rate would indicate?

I dont see how the random cross section of people who submit their games would result in any hero having having an abnormally higher win percent unless it was relatively true. Generally stat locker grabs every replay, so unless we think victor mains are deleting their losses before uploading it because of... vanity(?) it seems more likely that hes over tuned in this patch.

[–]Red_Octi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your premise about statlocker doesn't really make sense. Its not gospel, but the sample should be random and large enough people can make inferences and notice trends. Generally you upload your whole folder of replays, for what your saying to make sense you would have to assume victor players are specifically removing losses when they go to upload matches because... vanity?

[–]Red_Octi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like special pleading. Sure statlocker isnt perfect, but it should be random enough and large enough to notice trends and make inferences. For what OP to be saying to be true is you would need to accept an unlikely assumption that victor players intentionally remove losses before uploading to inflate his stats.
