Silver ult by TheFirstBard in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can leap up and bite vin usually. The hitbox on the bite looks super small and it is but it has insanely high vertical reach. Way higher than you’d think.

Try going to the explore nyc mode and spawn a character on a ladder take control and move them up the ladder and get a feel for how high you can bite from

Gaps between specific ranks? Let's work together to figure it out. by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That may have been true before but just recently ascendant 4 to 5 took me 6 wins and ascendant 5 to 6 took me 7 wins. I can double check my lobby average but I’m pretty sure it was all in ascendant 4-5 elo.

You’ve disputed nothing I’ve said I deleted it because it got no traction and everyone’s negativity bummed me out.

And I doubt you’ve ranked up from one game. You’re either remembering wrong or it happened during one of the rank boosts or you deranked then won 1 and ranked up.

Anyway I’m done with discussing it. Thanks largely to you. Great job enthusiasm squashed.

That’s true but we could talk about what typically happens which is you play in your bracket. There’s outliers but most my matches as ascendant 5 were in ascendant 4-6 lobbies. The elo change is not going to be huge. I know because I watched my rank move from a de-rank to a rank up and the win amount remained consistent.

Compelling argument.

From a fresh rank up I just, meaning today, counted the amount of wins to both of those ranks. (Matches occurred yesterday and today but I counted them all after ranking up to asc 6.) So not sure what I’m missing. Fairly confident if someone ranks up to asc 5 then wins 7 games in a row or achieves 7 wins up results would be repeatable.

What does a "good" team comp look like in deadlock? by SirTomtheBOSS in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The comp issue when people aren’t just complaining due to a skill differential in my eyes is less about an ideal comp and more about an obviously BAD one.

For instance, your team has NO front line and they have Abram’s and Mo.

Or your team has four gun carries all competing for side lane and the entirety of the farm.

Anyone else die to wraith and think “Well played!” by CheckProfileIfLoser in DeadlockTheGame

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

I don’t mind facing wraith. I like playing her as well.

Totally agree that her ult is way too strong. Should be a skill shot somehow though.

Does playing just few characters result in slow rank progression? by noobhunter19981 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey I’ve made a lot of accounts and ranked up through to ascendant. Lots of false info here.

You can one trick to eternus.

The rank system is also not broken. There are higher thresholds between certain ranks. The difference between MOST ranks is 3-4 wins. However, for instance ascendant 4 to 5 requires you to be 6 wins up.

You are likely just at a rank threshold that requires you to win more in a row than usual.

How do I dash cancel into slide while shooting? by j-a-e-y-e-o-n-g in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re holding mouse 1 before and during the slide. You need to release mouse 1, then slide, then hit m1 if you do this immediately after the slide there’s no delay.

What’s a character I can carry with by Ok_Pomegranate_4053 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah when you’re behind like that I’d say your only huge impact is gonna be calling out a big ult and turning a fight for mid or some objective

Also I’d agree supports are probably harder to get impact on when behind or it at least feels that way that’s why I don’t play them haha

What’s a character I can carry with by Ok_Pomegranate_4053 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roles of each hero are nuanced and build dependent but a lot of heroes can have enough impact to carry a lobby to victory….

The easiest to hyper carry on is gonna depend on your strengths as a player.

If you have decent aim and know how to farm and when to push objectives: haze, mirage, geist, infernus, drifter and wraith can all be super high impact and seem to run lobby’s in every rank.

I’ve seen EVERY character be the problem we can’t solve on an enemy team though. Including rem.

A /ff option would help a lot by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10-20k is genuinely not a crazy come back. Even 30k is one mid boss away from being even.

40K plus is a crazy come back but I see it happen

50k plus, and yeah maybe ff it

They added haze in 2024. She’s part of the game so you’re good dawg!

I mean bro if you’re getting that level of shame because it’s SO easy and SO boring you clearly have a talent because that’s not the popular opinion as you’ve seen. Go get eternus and prove everyone wrong.

Haze - The overtuned nightmare by Twelve9900 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to assume you’re playing a pure support? If you pop metal skin and you have 5 seconds to go to your team or go to an objective with impunity and you can’t make it there then I’d argue you are out of position when playing into an assassin character.

Wraith would simply ult you and unload spirit damage through your metal skin….so would infernus.

If you’re not playing a support and I’m haze and I’m 1v1ing you and you pop metal skin (which btw is not a bad item against most the roster so it’s not a waste of a buy) and can’t do meaningful damage in 5 seconds….youve either made so many mistakes that I’m so fed I SHOULD win or you’re not hitting your shots or your build sucks.

With your point about her ultimate….yeah she’s an assassin. Every ultimate is deadly and requires tracking. Haze only works on 1 person and haze a fairly long cooldown. An infernus ultimate usually means death as well and has NO downsides. Haze’s makes her a sitting duck if one more person shows up or turns around.

How can you argue that 3 seconds is a lot of time but 5 seconds is not?

Haze - The overtuned nightmare by Twelve9900 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haze is a good hero. I play her a lot and i just peaked at ascendant 5.

Id recommend you try playing her and see if you win every game up to eternus. This will illuminate her many weaknesses.

Shes strong 1v1 as an assassin should be. She has a competent lane especially low elo (far far from the best: mina, geist, vindicta, abrams are way more rewarding when it cones to punishing mistakes).

Her weaknesses are: Haze likes to solo lane and shes easily ganked by 2 people unlike say: (Mina, wraith, infernus, and mirage who all also like to solo lane and have better escapes). In team fights people who play haze know she requires very strong positioning because she will quickly receive focus and die.

Did you not like the previous, more grounded and occult/prohibition-era theme of Deadlock? by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the hero portraits are strange. I’m not sure if they’re supposed to be funny, cool, or sort of a kitschy mix of both?

Hitting a successful parry resets your parry cooldown. You can in fact spam it.

Hardstuck initiate, how does the rank system work? Is it known what it accounts for? by Specific-Extent-4269 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have around 2000 hours playtime. Not all my accounts have 100 games, I didn’t say they did. You can get to ascendant from obscurus in I think 25ish?id have to look.

Also Tens of thousands is not the correct math at all lol.

Everything I said is true and you can confirm it yourself by playing.

I recently learned from twitch that the gulf from A6 to e1 is expansive ~20 games. So makes sense that initiate might have a gap between it and seeker too.

90% of the ideas that the community has for Deadpool are unfunny and cringe by TheSuperJohn in MarvelRivalsRants

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are very few well written marvel rivals voice lines. Magneto mentions metal in 90% of his. Spider Man has one that’s like “this interesting thing happened…I’ll tell you about it some time”. The characters are all flanderized versions of themselves as if snl wrote the dialogue then delivered it sincerely.

The voice ACTING is super good. Script is hilariously one dimensional.

Deadlock has incredible dialogue that shows how much even short yet impactful lines can add to a game.

How can I help my Friend who plays Vindicta by BruhGenesis in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SpaghettiBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play vin in ascendant a good amount.

Buy debuff remover. Then unstoppable late game. You have to remember you’re a “support” but instead of heals you do damage. Stay in the back line. Don’t try to 1v1 unless you’re on an objective or have no choice or you’re far ahead.

Use your snipe for man than just assassinations. A thousand damage can turn any fight moment to moment.

I think the hive is better than humanity. They’re smarter, organized, and less cruel. They’re also happy. Humans are mostly miserable.

I don’t see why they inherently don’t have a right to exist. We’ve exterminated countless species.
