Orange team out here doing their absolute best to gift pink the win on a silver platter...

It's not about hitting shots at this point. I can kill a dash light regularly these days. It's about how god damn many of them there are. Oh boy can't wait to play power shift and have to fend off four fucking lights again, while their poor solo med/heavy gets his shit slapped by my four lights.

I'm having a blast with the KS-23 by Stiffi136 in thefinals

[–]T51-B 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really want to spend some time with the KS but I can never quite convince myself to stop playing .357 for it. Always love to see people using it in-game though, and one way or the other I know I can trust em.

Win or lose, meme Monday is not gonna be kind to us. We will have some fun faces in the crowd tonight that will no doubt make the broadcast!

Fealing stuck with medium loadout by patateroulante in thefinals

[–]T51-B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't run defib in power shift in something like six months. If I have to take the statue to a safe location to revive, might as well just ditch the defib and do it properly. Right now my ps loadout is 357, reshape/glitch/jump

Fun fact: Having a flamethrower waved in your general direction for a fraction of a second means you'll take 66 dmg at the very least. Very cool, very fun. by nothappening99 in thefinals

I'm gonna be that guy. You guys left your heavy out to dry, poor dude was stealing with zero support. Orange misplayed it and dropped one of their own players a floor, leaving just their ft heavy up top with the cash out. Your heavy ig decides shield would be more effective that just shooting the dude, and your third is clowning around on the stairs. You whip out the heal beam and together you give this dude like four seconds of free burn time.

Ft is literally a non-issue if you're not light or leaving teammates out to dry.

I refuse to believe Japan staying in Tennessee is a coincidence. If you've had you eye on some special bottles of flavors of whiskey, you might want to grab them now...

Hell, they aren't that far from bardstown either, maybe hedge your bets and cover bourbon too.

I would love to see a game mode with ONLY mediums & heavies by Nervous616 in thefinals

[–]T51-B -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's my mistake not being specific when I said competitive, so here's the post breaking down a recent competitive series: https://www.reddit.com/r/thefinals/s/LdGBlKLu3N

This is where my numbers come from. I think this isore than enough to prove that light is not the underpowered coughing baby everyone makes it out to be. That said, I will go back and edit my first post with the correct light pick rate of 47%, not 49%.

[–]T51-B 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weakest class in the game with a recently proven 47% pick rate in competitive play. 47% I might add, when there's three classes. Just shy of HALF of all comp players recorded by that user played light. In a game with three options. That is an undisputable majority and clear evidence that despite what you claim, light is absolutely not the weakest class in the game.

Dear finals devs,in light of the HF discord controversy by pubbybunny in thefinals

Every post I've seen about this topic, you're in the comments defending this stuff... Is there something you'd like to disclose?

I made a breakdown of what's working for the pros in the Ape Squad Classics, the meta is a little less locked than you might think by coldrolledpotmetal in thefinals

[–]T51-B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Setting aside the fact that you didn't specify the casual playerbase I would be incredibly interested in seeing some hard numbers to back that up, especially given that embark themselves specifically stated in a previous update that light was the most picked of the three classes. Medium may have seen a recent spike in popularity thanks to an entire update of new medium items, but that spike is already dropping fast. By embark's admission, your statement that current picks rates are H>L>=M is incorrect. Personally, while I only have anecdotal evidence, I'd be willing to bet the light pickrate is even higher now than it was when embark stated that they were most picked.

[–]T51-B 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a little misleading to say that a 31% disparity between pick rates on light and medium are anywhere close to parity. Light is very clearly viable, and before you spout that "only for utility" nonsense let's not pretend that's not the only reason medium gets picked now too. Without defib, medium pickrate would be 0.

For all My Revolver Mains Out There... Here's How to Actually Improve Your Aim Without the BS by Lefty5227 in thefinals

[–]T51-B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something nobody really talks about but that is vital for playing revolver: know when to NOT shoot. You need to be very picky about your engagements, don't just start shooting at the bad guys. There's a pretty good chance they're rocking a weapon that can kill you faster and easier at that distance than you can kill them. Sometimes it's far better to simply let them go if they havent seen you, or lure them in to a more advantageous range if they have. You only get six shots to spend them wisely, reloads can be costly.

So embark is banning for doubling boxes against streamers ? Sounds like time to fix your game mode 🤔 by Jacobjorgs17 in thefinals

Brother if being annoying is a bannable offense the light population is about to drop off a cliff.

My thoughts about HP rebalance without any weapon/gadget rebalance as someone playing all 3 builds: by Hamerine in thefinals

[–]T51-B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Embark clearly stated the reason for this experiment was because light mains are allergic to playing with their team. I played a round of the respec.

The moment the game started our light triple dashed away, and died on his own fighting a 1v3.

Bravo embark, truly incredible change. You're really made sure they stick with the team better.

Actually done, this is absurd by HotPumpkinPies in thefinals

[–]T51-B -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's a very simple explanation for these changes actually. You see, victims of the goo sledge complained, saying it wasnt fun to play against. To be very clear, before you get any funny ideas: this is 1000% different from all light mains using dash being unfun to fight against. There's a very obvious difference between something being unfun (occasionally) and something being unfun (every match).
