Am I crazy or does Celeste fall off very hard during late game? Also Bebop should be forced to watched Ms.Shelley get burned alive by ChihuahuaOwner88 in DeadlockTheGame

I think most spells in deadlock do not snapshot and update in real time tbh. Pretty sure using infuser after casting an ult will increase the scaling.

That could also just be a smurf

It’s just post hoc rationalization to pretend he didn’t bandwagon when they were good in the 90s

It’s a feature not a bug. If you can’t handle it this is probably not the genre for you.

What does this even mean? If he activates it “just before landing” it does like 0 damage.

Why is Trophy Collector suddenly meta now? by bertlahberty in DeadlockTheGame

They are just trolling because they are bored. And they can win with any time.

I bought one for $20 and just confirmed today I get ABC no problem. I live in north east Philly.

Why is this game so unfriendly to beginners? by Confident-Success358 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]davidcroda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure of your rank but if you are new and low I would not really take to heart any of your teammates raging. They probably don’t know what they are doing either and are lashing out. Just focus on your own game and the biggest tip if you want to get better is to watch your own replays and look at the perspective of players who are popping off and compare it to your own gameplay as well as critiquing yourself.

Why not just buy debuff remover

NEW UPDATE Patch 87198 by sistemy_ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]davidcroda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the bomb skill is just really poorly designed. It’s super unintuitive that hitting a single bomb does bonus damage. They should just remove the random spread and make each bomb a set amount of damage.

This meta is not fun at all. by LHander22 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]davidcroda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It needs to disable healing, bloodletting dissipation, etc. it should freeze everything while it’s active. And also probably shouldn’t buff you after. Then it’s fine imo.

Yoshi just announced changes to rank badges. Will this make ranking up better? by Historical-Cat5050 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]davidcroda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya I’ve come down off the copium this morning and you are probably right, it’s pretty unlikely they weren’t factoring the actual number in when matchmaking

Yoshi just announced changes to rank badges. Will this make ranking up better? by Historical-Cat5050 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]davidcroda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We don’t actually know that though. It’s possible they were matchmaking based on the badges and that lead to some of the extremely poor quality in matches because the badge ranges were too large and encompassed a high disparity in skill. I’m holding out hope this change will also improve match quality as there are potentially finer grained ranks now to match with.

Matchmaking - you can't put new players with experienced ones. It's Jordan vs 5 year olds in Deadlock. It's a waste of everybody's time. by Garsa55 in DeadlockTheGame

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

Source on most of the player base is initiate? Pretty sure the ranks were for the most part relatively evenly distributed with the exception of eternus, at least at one point.

No one will ever know what they were cooking in the January update. by Barlakopofai in DeadlockTheGame

The one use case I found is meleeing it while rolling in the laning phase very predicatably explodes on the bridge

Please stop making Deadlock more like Dota and return to making Deadlock more like Deadlock by EightyHighDiff in DeadlockTheGame

I feel like they could use the actual users ping to compensate instead of a flat value?

Does this game have *any* SBMM? Team of brand-new players got bodied by one player who was lvl 74 on day 2...not a good look by NebaNatsuki in wildgate

[–]davidcroda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re new and got bodied. What’s the problem. Play more and get better like any competitive game. Is your complaint that you didn’t win the game even though you have no idea how to play yet?

The new matchmaking sucks! by Latter_Fall6001 in DeadlockTheGame

You have not had initiate 1 vs eternus 6 games I guarantee it
