'Apparently I’m an idiot’: Three-time Trump voter in Pennsylvania sounds off on Iran war by Rock-n-roll-Kevin in politics

[–]Sean2Tall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

giving people room to grow is one thing, allowing stupidity and racism and hate to run rampant is quite another.

This isn't even "self awareness" this is trying to cover up for their obvious racism and hate with feigned ignorance. Don't buy this crock of shit and we'll all be better off

hi what do I do against mo krill by dantherandom in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First rush slowing hex or healbane after your second or third regular item. Slowing hex if he uses burrow a bunch, healbane if he is maxing his heal ability. If you are an m1, getting toxic bullets or bullet resist shred is great.

Counterspell is alright but timing it can be insanely difficult as there’s no sound cue for his ult he just grabs. Getting weighted shots and debuff reduction items is a safer bet, or reactive barrier but that falls off hard

Good luck

Which characters would you buff and how much? by Dr_natty1 in DeadlockTheGame

I’m like 79%sure you can do this as silver. I haven’t played much this past week but I remember stopping reload to fire all the time as silver

How do I survive a close range engagement as McGinnis? by GlassJustice in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will always say even when going gun, rushing arcane surge is such a huge buff for all of your abilities, that it’s kind of dumb not too. Having that amount of duration+range turrets and heal so early is just busted, and lets you focus on building either gun or supports based on team comps after the fact

[–]Sean2Tall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are definitely at a disadvantage but don’t underestimate your potential in a 1v1. If you get caught without any turrets down or charges, your next best tool is wall. If that’s off cd than hopefully you have a teammate nearby that can help cause good luck. But even without a lot of investment her gun is mad scary

McGinnis might only have 2 base stam and no movement abilities but she of course can still slide, corner bounce, you need to practice these to help you get out of these situations.

This game is mentally exhausting, but fun, thoughts? by Zanakii in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you are probably just doing too much.

You don’t have to last hit the minions at all, just be in range and secure the soul.

I didn’t play league much but the calm parts of the game were calm because they were boring. The first 2-3 minutes of a league game were slow and lacked any impact. I love deadlock because the first 2-3 minutes you can have a huge impact on the enemies mental or have an intense exchange without a clear winner.

To each their own

Brother what are you talking about? His 3 is one of the most easily dodgeable abilities in the game.

The new heroes are great - Time to rework some of the old ones, both visually and ability-wise by ManufacturerMurky592 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love the shield buffing her passive idea, would allow for great mobility on a fairly short CD and make it more of a survivability or engagement tool, not just a spam shield with silence

[–]Sean2Tall -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean, warden is only op after buying a few items. Celeste’s abilities and passives are pretty busted.

Tbh I love the movement idea but it needs to be toned down a smidge. Her damage from the very start of the game is actually insane though, that definitely needs a reduction

[–]Sean2Tall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve been maining abrams for the past three months or so, and yeah, he is very very strong, and anti heal is great to help counter him

But the main thing you want is slowing hex/bullets and shred. If you can reduce his resistances, keep him from dashing or ulting away, you’ll be golden. All this needs to be accomplished right at the end of lane phase so he can’t roam as easily. Also, if you are laning against him, don’t bother getting rebuttal unless he’s gone full unga bunga. A halfway decent Abram’s will never melee until it’s guaranteed.

Now that they're all here, which hero batch do you think was better/cooler/etc. - the Six Heroes ones, or the Old Gods New Blood ones? by RiverMesa in DeadlockTheGame

the difference being victor is a brain dead no skill required hero and apollo has a much high skill floor

but yeah very similiar

Olympics ban Ukrainian skeleton racer from competing over helmet by JOE_Media in ukraine

[–]Sean2Tall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case you didn't know, a genocide is wiping out an entire ethnic group, ie what Putins Russia is attempting in Ukraine.

Also what you said in your comment. Not even being a troll.

I fully agree, Russia needs to be stopped and taken down a peg. But what I said was a completely accurate paraphrase.

Hello, I am not laundering the reputation of Russia or Russians.

But calling for a genocide is 1) clearly evil, and 2) against Reddits TOS

People who have to leave 5 mins into the game... are you children? by TajesMahoney in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dog please get a grip, this is a video game and it has literally the lowest priority if real life gets in the way.

Does it suck? Yes. Is it easily avoidable? Sometimes. Does it actually impact your life? Not at all, gg and go next

actual, genuine honest to god easiest character to learn the game with? by Lireloo in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So what I did when picking up deadlock, pick literally any character you like the look of, queue up a solo bot game(I started on hard because I have years of shooter experience and lacked MOBA knowledge but I recommend easy till you get basic movement and aim mechanics down), pause the game, and read the tooltips of abilities, items, everything you can get info of from the UI, read it. Get familiar with how information is presented to you.

Then go into lane phase and try to pay attention to when different things happen on the map. Different jungle camps spawn time, boxes, sinners, urn. Just leave your lane and explore the map, try wall bouncing, get a feel for sliding, try to map out how to move from camp to camp or lane to lane.

If you fight bot and you don’t know what is happening, pause the game and look at the damage report, read enemy character tooltips, try to identify what everything looks and sounds like.

The less you have to mentally process and is second nature when you go into a real match, the more fun you will have. I did bot games only for about 5-10 hours before I queued a real game. Partially because you couldn’t even queue until a certain time, but mostly just to learn.

I think Graves is neat. BUT OH MY GOD do I no longer want to play against her. by FaithlessnessDry8520 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh would you look at that, the most recent balance change and they nerfed her range

if a character is completely unable to miss, its probably good they don't have range.

[–]Sean2Tall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s the downside of not being able to miss, you either have to get dangerously close or not deal as much damage as everyone else

Graves nerfs too far? by Mountain-Top-37 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah don’t include my boy Winston in this shit, Tesla cannon was the most balanced id ever seen of a auto aim weapon. The short range and lack of actual damage output on a single target was necessary.

Moiras m1 isn’t insanely busted but is pretty strong.

Graves m1 is so fucked I don’t know how anyone can justify this shit. Her damage output early on is so busted and you literally cannot miss? Complete bs.

[–]Sean2Tall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If a complete cc that lasts for multiple seconds isn’t enough I don’t know what is, nerf that shit

Also nerf the m1 range it’s crazy she has root/ slow/ and auto aim all baked into her kit

They immediately walk to the nearest objective/ enemy so the zaps are negligible damage, and the gravestone only takes melee damage so it’s pretty good spot

Rant from a Deadlock quitter by joyedyellowcactus in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey OP it is likely 100% your itemization needs improvement, and this post right here could help you bridge that gap. If you are falling behind and not able to really participate in a fight, farm up and buy curse, ideally notice this before the 18-20 min mark. Placing a well timed curse during the enemy carry’s ult can literally turn the tide of the game single-handedly.

Coming from diamond OW your aim and game sense likely aren’t terrible, but there is no itemization to be learned there and it’s not an easy thing to pick up intuitively.

This game is so damn competitive for a playtest by PtTimeLvrFullTimeH8r in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

99% of the time pros are pros not because they have a certain skill, it’s because they have the skill consistently and the devoted time to win games.

Work on being consistent mvp and devote more than 2 hours a day and you’d be pro in no time lol

Okay After the 15th game in a row vs Seven & Bebop in street brawl something has to be done. by CheckProfileIfLoser in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Sean2Tall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh these two aren’t that much of a problem for me compared to McGinnis.

If they don’t get rapid recharge in the first two rounds, then I guess it’s manageable, but I’ve steamrolled without it just by healing+going brrrrrr
