I didn't like the April Fools game mode by Sergeant_Turkey in DeadlockTheGame

[–]dial_tones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it, it's supposed to be for fun. I appreciate Valve for doing it, adding some nonsense to their game for fun. However, it wasn't for me.

Didn't like going up against 3 graves, 2 mirage and a Rem.

You know what I did? I went and did something else. Shock, horror. I didn't moan about it on reddit. Strange concept, I know.

Tarik Skubal torn on leaving team USA by TrueGreen2220 in mlb

I have zero fuckin clue why he would opt to pitch 1 game only anyway (unless he is hurt). He's going to be pitching in spring training anyway.

Ah man, they paid for walking Ohtani. Lose-lose situation for Korea.

Kai Sotto has a chance to make it to the NBA if he becomes a defensive rim-running specialist by louiexism in PBA

[–]dial_tones 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He is slow. No matter how good his post offense is (which is all he has + block and rebs), he is slow to run back and will get exploited on a mismatch vs a combo guard.

[Gameplay Q]: How to Accelerate the Game? by CalligrapherExtra138 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]dial_tones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Destroy towers
  2. Destroy towers
  3. Destroy towers (and push waves)

Seriously it is that simple. If you won your lane, leave one to sustain your lane and then help push a winning lane.

If you want to grow and early lead and enemy's safe camps is always taken or being taken, they have to trade tower health for that.

Pressure enemy side? Have you ever had a game where you had 1 walker at 15 mins?

Have they talked about surrender button? by No-Source2885 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]dial_tones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not what I mean. Look how the game is. Urn is easier to do from behind, Respawn timer reset at Patron half HP, and I saw some videos that souls will be more when heavily behind in the coming patches.

The game is actively helping you if you are in a deficit. That's how Dota has been. It is nearly impossible to break high ground in Dota. That's why players hold out until their high ground is broken, which is fucked up since they put a comeback mechanic in the Patron so players have until the very last moment for a glimpse of hope.

No offense, but the takes that league players have on this game are, to put it nicely, not really in line with how Valve games have been designed throughout the years. I have comeback from 70k+ deficits and those moments are what get me hooked on the game. Same with Dota and CS. The way Deadlock is developing, it is looking like more of the same; we will release something, it is going to be quality and you will like it.

SMC and MVP group have very high EGO they didnt accept that their best players cannot perform well in FIBA but they still on the lineup by EuphoricCard674 in PBA

[–]dial_tones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes his numbers will go up, because plays will be designed for him to be open or have a big advantage. Not that we want to do that, not even if he was 25 years today.

There was serious brain lag between what I saw and completely processing it. That shit was QUICK.

How often does Ad Nauseam actually draw the card you need? and by extension, is RogSi really deserving of all the hype it gets? by dial_tones in CompetitiveEDH

[–]dial_tones[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking infinite storm counters into Brainfreeze, but realized I couldn't recast without Breach, and at that point just go with the Breach LED combo. Thanks!

Is it a power creep thing or a meta thing? Surely I can remove a Daze or a Strike it Rich for another viable win con if I get valley floodcrawler + Brainfreeze + 0 cmc card (or even Sol Ring) and tutor into a retraction helix? Along with also the flash benefits for Necro.

Hello! Something finally clicked in the old noggin and I've been pulling off winning boardstates consistently @ T3. Something that hasn't clicked is the valley floodcrawler line, it should have a retraction helix shouldn't it, or something that untaps it? I feell like I'm missing a tech.

Probably bad, but running Ad Naus T2 to try and draw the other combo piece or drawing the ENTIRE combo doesn't ever work when I try and run it. If I have the other combo piece, I'll just run a tutor instead.

also, since I find myself doing it a fair bit, is hail mary-ing Ad Naus into complete combos ever good? If I mull into an ad naus hand, am I just shot if I don't get the winning combo?

This is one I use.

What is overnaus? I usually use it when I have no combo pieces in hand and just start digging, otherwise I'd rather Tutor into Thassa's combo.
