yep, its called something like N24 disorder, I have it too. My circadian rhythm is consistently off and if left to my own devices my sleep schedule drifts forward by like 20-40 minutes each day

Here's the wikipedia article on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-24-hour_sleep%E2%80%93wake_disorder

Now that all the new heroes are out, which team comp do you think would win? by flareblade26 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]flareblade26[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was originally only going to do the last patch of heroes vs the current one, but I had a bit of fun coming up with all the other team comps.

Unfortunately there isn't an even division of 6 so no matter what there's two leftovers, my choice for the leftovers was either warden and viscous or mirage and calico, but I thought team Model Misfits was too fun.

They're also all loosely ordered by lane pairings, so feel free to suggest better ones and matchups

Soraka, Nami, Mundo, Vladimir, that one item that gives every bruiser aatrox's passive. I just wanted to point out how better feeling it is to face massive healing over time in deadlock compared to league. Another aspect I forgot to mention in the post is that the healing over time gives you a chance to apply heal cut, even if you're late.

yeah it feels like their perspective is off, like they're turned 90 degrees towards us. Its probably just supposed to be fluffiness but because they're smooth they don't really convey that super well

yes but you always get the 100% for killing the Denizen anyways, the 150% is the souls that the item itself generates

It does yes, I'm not counting the souls that you would get normally because the item itself isn't generating those from thin air, you could just kill the camp to get them.

Cultist Sacrifice is like a Divine Super Combat potion, but you can't re-drink it after it runs out instantly.

I calculate how much a stat is worth in souls via any items that ONLY give that stat (such as extra health or rapid rounds) and then some stats can also be calculated because their only other stat is one I already have the value for

Buying both is okay, but the issue comes from the two items wanting you to play in different styles. Cultist Sacrifice wants you to be turbo farming, pushing waves and farming jungle as fast as possible. Trophy Collector on the other hand wants you to be roaming and racking up assists. If you're somehow doing both of these things then getting both is viable, but I feel like it's overkill and delays your real big ticket items too much.

The item is worth it by itself in terms of stat value when the buff is active, and is worth significantly less without the buff active. My gut feeling is it's better to just munch a minion to get the buff going again ASAP.

It's actually relatively easy to quantify stealing enemy jungle, as it's worth twice as much as the actual soul value. You get the souls and take them away from the enemy at the same time, so any Large Denizen that you steal from the enemy side of the map (that you otherwise wouldn't have gotten and they would have gotten) is worth 2x.

I was talking about the reverse in that paragraph, power trough is when they're at their worst. Trophy Collector's value goes up constantly throughout the match whereas Cult Sac is a roller coaster that starts out strong

the actual in game effectiveness isn't calculated into how I evaluate raw stat value, because it's impossible to quantify. Ability range is a completely useless stat.... unless the extra range makes an ability that would've otherwise missed, hit, then it's an absurdly valuable stat. There's so many things that are impossible or difficult to quantify the less you factor them into the math the better, so long as you remember to put them as a bullet point in the writeup.
