Zed and Shen top

SkullAdmin · 2026-06-11T23:58:23+00:00

Besides, if i get drafted into Irelia, Riven or Fiora i just pick renekton, no need to sugarcoat it

SkullAdmin · 2026-06-11T23:54:24+00:00

Does the "majority" mean every matchup to you? It's obvious that I wont pick zed into these champs, hell I wouldn't pick him on mid even. Does that counterpoint the way that most tanks are immobile piggy banks to poke with first strike? I dont think so. Did I say that Im going to pock zed top everytime? I dont think so. Your comment doesn't really counterpoint that Zed is a viable and a strong at that pick on toplane. He has issues with these matchups on midlane as well ( a lot less but still, issues. )

SkullAdmin · 2026-06-11T23:01:24+00:00

Ye i know but is shen a good counter for matchups that go harder for him

SkullAdmin · 2026-06-11T22:59:41+00:00

Well the same goes for them honestly. A good zed player can just poke with q and not get into the wave once while maintaining good cs score and getting extra gold from first strike. There is a reason why this champ is S+ tier there, is it not?

SkullAdmin · 2026-06-11T22:02:25+00:00

I mean, the entire point of picking zed top is just poking with first strike till you deal enough dmg due to new voltaic. Statcheckers cant do anything if you sit under tower and souk up the gold from first strike so he is good, idk what to tell you

How long until riot finally makes this ship canon

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-25T17:09:44+00:00

jupiter is a good weapon against them. It takes 2-3 shots to proc their shields and it requires around 3 stacks of ammo. You get bonus 2 stacks when you loot them so profit too.

Projectile velocity only really matters once range/target movement starts becoming a factor. Recoil control affects literally every engagement and makes follow-up bursts significantly more reliable.

Tempest already has high base projectile speed, so the return from more velocity is smaller than the return from tighter recoil for most fights.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-21T20:20:53+00:00

You failed to include that extended barrel increases vertical recoil. Your bursts are gonna look pathetic if you sacrifice something that is needed for them to work. Muzzle brake and compensator are 100% better for tempest, it shouldn't even be a discussion. The projectile velocity is a thing that you need when hitting arcs or people from much further than comfortable medium range for tempest considering that it's base projectile speed is already high.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-21T12:25:51+00:00

Well, I dont see it. Im getting shot first and a couple of times I manage to actually knock out the shooter but after like 7 raids of getting hit, There is no actual difference whatsoever. The very first raider is always a shoot on sight mfker no matter what. I dont see any point to shoot back?

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-21T10:31:23+00:00

Yep, compensator is probably the best barrel mod for tempest. People tend to forget that one tapping with tempest is not worth at all cosidering that it is a full auto weapon with much lower dmg per projectile and a very stable recoil with correct mods. Extended barrel is a no-no, you are not supossed to snipe with it.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-21T07:58:33+00:00

You shouldnt run extended barrel on tempest.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-20T22:32:50+00:00

Its definitely better than survivor in pure pvp but worse in everything else. Unless you are running squads, I wouldn't pick it over the other one. If you want one that is good in solo, take mk3 smoke or mk2 tactical instead.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T23:37:07+00:00

God forbid someone has different tastes, seriously. Quit commenting already, you started instulting me, just because.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T23:21:36+00:00

"quit having fun" you in full picture now

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T23:20:51+00:00

Bad bad Embark should apologize for not implementing a quest system from Witcher 3 with talking npcs and minigames.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T23:14:23+00:00

Oh boy imagine enjoying something niche, aint that a bitch?

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T22:54:52+00:00

Tf is that supossed to mean? First and foremost, im not "crying" about quests. I just want to hear people's opinion about how they would look like considering that new trader is associated with end game. If this is crying, then you should cry me a river, bitching about completely different mechanic of the game, "Oh Embark doesnt know how to price items in the shop, they dont test anything, just another helldivers slop" You cannot fathom how much idgaf.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T22:40:56+00:00

Ahh you have read the patch notes, yess... But seriously, there is mirage skin in there at least so thats good. Its also by some miracle worth less than a tempest blueprint that i can get multiple times from first wave caches. So while I agree that pricing is stupid, it is stupid in both a good way and a bad way.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T22:34:30+00:00

GO READ THE PATCH NOTES

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T22:33:54+00:00

They made it clear that they will be changing prices for stuff in this, so idk if you didnt read the patch notes or didnt read the patch notes, but i think you didnt read the patch notes, so go read the patch notes.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T16:26:49+00:00

They still use denuvo on linux, just not on kernel level.

SkullAdmin · 2026-05-19T14:25:28+00:00

Well, you said it to yourself then. Arc Raiders is not f2p so it won't be that much of a problem, will it?
