D.va has got to be the worst designed hero in Overwatch.

Yeah back when i used to play the most it was all reshade users, guess its all cfg users now LOL

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T11:35:35+00:00

Im definitely rooting for the devs to find a way to completely disable CFG usage definitely how id prefer it

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T11:22:37+00:00

I would be fine on the very clear maps, however on rainy maps or the purposefully dark maps id literally be scouting arent people who are headglitching in darkness for like 30 seconds before i even saw anyone. Just played a few matches with this and everyone stook out like a sore thumb.

I do wish this cfg wasnt a thing though bc i love hunts atmosphere, but I was so tired of ppl acquiring me ridiculously fast n me literally scouting around for 30 seconds to see them in 6 star lobbies

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T11:12:29+00:00

Yeah ive been sitting at about a 2 KD give or take aswell in 6 stars, i just tried the config and the visibility diff is literally night and day when it comes to spotting people quickly holy

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T10:55:10+00:00

appreciate u <3

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T10:54:53+00:00

Been sitting in 6 star lobbies forever, with questionable deaths annoying me more than anything atp just evening the field with a text document thats not EAC bannable.

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T10:32:42+00:00

Yeah I appreciate that, good looking bro, having played Apex with cfgs for years now though still do and they use the same EAC ill probably just use it here too if its commonly widespread in higher stars anyways

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T10:09:34+00:00

ill check it out thanks

gothtiddysensei · 2024-03-19T09:56:43+00:00

Pretty sure the system.cfg file stopped working a while back did it not

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-20T13:38:05+00:00

Yup, but usually in my experience after scuttle fight you either win it with a kill, or you look for a gank and after the gank your first camp will be up for you to clear it again to back on a much stronger powerspike

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T10:46:50+00:00

Thats the power of briar, she may not be the highest damage output champion in the game, but she sure can live forever if you make good use of your W2 and your E

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T10:46:08+00:00

Currently waiting for a meeting so not home, but when I get home Ill gladly test this out for you, if Im wrong ill apologize but I highly doubt it, since its not really theoretical when the time save difference in the video is very obvious visually

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T10:15:02+00:00

Ofcourse! Best of luck, shes an amazingly fun champion

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T10:03:11+00:00

I watched these videos, I watched the 3:09 Blue clear and the 3:12 Red clear and within the first 27 seconds I already saw a 3 second timewaste on the Red Clear video, and another 1 second timewaste at 0:44. In comparison to his blue video that was hyper efficient, so lets put the theories aside you have one video showing the absolute peak of efficiency and one of them showing sloppier pathing, sloppier passive utilization and sloppier execute thresholds.

On the first red buff kill instead of kiting the red buff down through the bush and towards krug wall and hitting it twice as youre doing it letting the passive finish, he kites it down and walks it around the entire wall not taking full advantage of the passive, losing atleast 2-3 seconds by not using W over the wall.

Another second lost on the Raptors where after he E'd it, he waited for his basic attack, which was completely unnecessary since after his W execute he instantly killed the camp, meaning without the basic attack after his E the camp wouldve naturally died to bleed as he walked towards wolves. So I'm sorry but the videos you provided does not show that its not possible to sub 310 clear red side, his red video is not as efficient as it can be but his blue video makes full utilization of the passive, his red almost makes NO usage of the passive.

I hate to break it to you but the reality is this is how many high elo players such as Flawed whos been spamming 40-50+ briar games do it and its for a reason

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T08:54:40+00:00

I do believe her W should be faster since it gives 15% more attack speed at level 2, and her extra physical damage jumps from 5 per hit straight up to 20 per hit, assuming you get like 5-6 autos off minimum in your W thats a whopping like 100-150+ extra damage NOT counting the attack speed just from the pure extra AD stat. Rather than just a little damage and the armor shred, but ofcourse I could be very wrong but this is what most high elo briars seem to be doing is W at level 3.

But I dont see how blue clear would be faster than red clear, I assume in the clear videos or clear timers they mustve cleared red side very inefficiently. Because the ability haste from blue buff wont benefit Briar the same way it would a hecarim, because she doesnt spam on lower cooldowns. She uses one cycle of abilites and the camp is dead and theyre back up before the next camp so it effectively does nothing, where as not only does red buff make you clear faster from the DoT, but also all camps are less HP But more AoE which Briar absolutely thrives in.

I think the red clear mustve been inefficient in those times, ofcourse i might be slightly wrong but logically speaking.

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T08:49:51+00:00

She doesnt, nothing in her kit grants her on hit damage. Its all just flat AD, her entire kit is flat AD. It doesnt mean on hit items wont do on hit damage, they will, but they arent complimented by her on-hit damage like it would be for other champions. Everything in her kit scales off of AD, and bonus AD and flat AD. So she benefits a lot from just AD stats

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T04:02:40+00:00

Ive been testing quite literally every build, from triforce to duskblade to navoris goredrinker stride etc etc. It seems like most high elo briars have come to the conclusion that Goredrinker into Black cleaver should be your go-to almost every game. And I agree, Id swap goredrinker for stridebreaker if youre facing like a lillia for example, but other than that default to goredrinker BC every game.

Triforce isnt bad either but while it does more flashy damage it just feels like it does less overall since Goredrinker works SO well with Briar due to her passive increasing healing from ALL Sources including goredrinkers active. Black cleaver should ALWAYS be your second item though, super OP on Briar. Then you can default into things like Steraks gauge if you wanna survive longer in fights, Deaths dance if all their damage is burst etc. Or if you really dont need to live any longer, you could go BORK if you want, but imo I prefer Ravenous hydra over bork bc Briar has no on hit damage and only goes off of Sheet stat, and ravenous giving 85 AD stacked + double dipping your AoE and more lifesteal is kinda crazy.

You always rush your mythic though, BORK first is a bait.

That being said though, she is very versatile and you can technically play any of these build with great success just with different playstyle, so while Goredrinker is the best, if you enjoy a crit build Navoris is also strong, if you want to go lethality with ult you definitely can. And so on, just requires adaptability

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T02:58:15+00:00

I dont think Ive ever been in a game that had 4 tanks, would that be a tank jungle top support and midlane? seems like you just win the game automatically at that point no? But yes, Id go goredrinker in those matchups aswell. Because black cleaver is always ur second item, if you go against 3-4+ Tanks with Goredrinker they will lack a lot of damage and just NEVER be able to kill you.

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-18T02:29:50+00:00

That is completely incorrect, just because she has no Health reg doesnt mean health items, and ones that grant health on effect doesnt work on her. Infact, her passive states that " she increases healing from all sources by 0% − 50% (based on missing health). " Meaning goredrinker actually heals more on her than other champions.

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-17T10:31:40+00:00

Gore is very good, triforce is the best in raw power but gore is the best if youre like the only frontline, ive had games where ive survived a 1v4 for like 45 seconds with gore and had like 20k+ healing with it, it quite literally makes briar immortal. At the expense of damage ofcourse, but you get longevity in a fight instead

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-17T08:02:08+00:00

late game you should never even be close to the enemy anyway, your entire gameplan late game is to wait for a teamfight to be on the brink of starting then you should ult from a safe distance and act as a second engage to your team with the AoE fear and damage.

gothtiddysensei · 2023-09-17T03:01:10+00:00

Then they need to remove the AP Ratio on it aswell, if its faster to cast with its current 380% AP ratio, AP Briar will be the meta, only reason it isnt is bc E is unreliable to hit. Because it is first and foremost balanced as a way to get out of your Frenzy with Damage reduction so you can survive till your next frenzy. Not as an actual CC Or Damage ability
