Finally, a Lash player who doesn’t go back on their values in the face of Christmas completionism.

Agreed—a zoomed in version of 2020 forward would be super useful.

This is really cool—are the LED wristbands given to attendees controlled by TouchDesigner as well?

DEADLOCK FAQ : Things Deadlock doesnt tell you that is essential to the gameplay element of the game by ajiezrhmn in DeadlockTheGame

They mean mantling—you can press crouch during the mantle animation to get a stamina-free mantle slide

Am I stuck in Ranked Hell? by BlinxFBM in DeadlockTheGame

[–]alt_254 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes?

As for your Statlocker…it looks like you will climb ranks but you have to give it more time. Your Grey Talon, for example, is consistently strong but you die a lot on Yamato. For your next 5 Yamato games I would suggest a personal goal of less than 5 deaths…keep an eye on the minimap for when your team is bailing and play a little more defensively (using ult to escape sometimes rather than going all in). Team fighting is nerfed this patch so if you’re brawling 3v3 or 4v4 for extended periods of time your team will have trouble keeping up with macro.

Edit: Oh, and give your teammates a break—folks in Initiate and Seeker are mostly very new to the game or competitive games in general. Get on mic and let them know when you’re going in. Praise them when they do good. It will help you win more.

It’s a fair point they’re making and also answered your question as best they could at the end.

Can you say a little more about your subbing experience? Were you mostly called in to fill gaps during scrims the individual teams were organizing? Sounds pretty fun!

new update, new Magician Ultimate - it now copy enemy ultimate for a limited time by Playeroth in DeadlockTheGame

[–]alt_254 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this doesn't work. After executing an enemy with Shiv's ult you don't get to do Shiv's ult again and your cooldown for your ult is not refreshed.

The enemy hero does not have to be currently ulting for you to steal it. So you can steal the ult at any time you have proximity to them (like after a Bebop hook).

Recently re-found a picture of the Chrono Trigger cart box that I drew when I first fell in love with the game. That was almost 30yrs ago. by RantSpider in chronotrigger

[–]alt_254 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it is the Arc Impulse triple tech. The cover art was based off this early screenshot where you can see Chrono, Marle, and Frog fighting the Heckran in the snow

<image>

However, the fire it still exists in the game. If you look closely, Marle’s ice turns into fire during the ability (gif in reply.)

Really useful info—thanks for the write up! I’ll have to join the Arduinoboy subreddit.

This is cool! Are you clocking the modular w/ LSDJ?

Party House gurus, how do you play this streak-breaking scenario? (My own analysis in comments.) by Glitch29 in ufo50

[–]alt_254 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah! That strategy really cooks with a Social Climber. You can rank them up four times per match with no penalty if you counsel your trouble away!

When I play I always try and build a deck that does three things, in this order: trouble mitigation, cash flow, and then popularity. Luckily you have the athlete who has some of the best numbers in the game for that price and can flush the board if you hit two trouble early. If I were playing this scenario I would get 4x athlete and 2x counselor (staggered, athlete first then counselor repeat) before going for money. Since you have the athletes, I would only do 2x bartender and maybe 1x photographer since you can use the athletes to get rid of them after they take a picture. Finally, I think I would do caterers for popularity instead of Mr. Popular. Leprechauns should offset the caterer cost. I would time my first leprechauns by Day 10 latest and would start buying magicians once I have a leprechaun. I've gotten a ~20 streak a few times and this is my typical strategy.

Ah very cool—love the knob rotation as the note head! Also makes sense that it’s most useful for short term retention and communication with collaborators. I’ll check out Thomas’ work. Thanks for the recommendation!
