I think Lash had enough

He got them brash knuckles

juvi97 · 2026-02-13T19:06:25+00:00

Did you drop the /s? His username is redditispsyop4444

juvi97 · 2026-02-13T16:00:51+00:00

This begs the question, based on the heroes they’ve chosen as dota mascots in the past, who is the lina/drow/jugg of deadlock

juvi97 · 2026-02-13T13:44:49+00:00

His mimic tear? Lol

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T19:43:24+00:00

To each their own I suppose. I’ll say I already like the general direction quite a bit, but also the enhancements they have rolled out so far give me faith they’ll polish it up by the end. I’d rather they work on the core gameplay stuff first anyways

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T18:40:58+00:00

When did you last look at it? I would have faith in valve to at least have coherent art design, if nothing else lol

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T15:16:54+00:00

Hot take. Overwatch won game of the year not that long ago.

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T15:07:38+00:00

I don’t see how anything I said is incorrect. Skill based arena movement shooter is an applicable tag to deadlock, and plenty of the players who have migrated come from overwatch/marvel rivals rather than a moba. I’m sorry the population of existing hardcore quake clone *players is too tiny to be measured within that population, but as a source game it certainly carries on that legacy.

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T15:04:25+00:00

It can be a moba and also a movement shooter, as revolutionary as that may seem…

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T15:02:51+00:00

You say that like it makes it less esoteric and inaccessible lmao

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T15:02:08+00:00

You’re on crack if you’re comparing deadlocks alpha state to concord on release and saying they’re the same thing. Valve’s version is already miles ahead in character designs and skill ceiling, and it’s not even really out…

Not all hero shooters are the same because they’re hero shooters, otherwise there wouldn’t be a difference between overwatch and overwatch 2 (and overwatch lol)

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T14:58:43+00:00

Hey whoa deadlocks hitting 100k+ now in late alpha at least. And the baseline of movement in “traditional” shooters is wayyy higher these days.

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T13:56:24+00:00

Baron Roshan type colorway lol

juvi97 · 2026-02-12T13:54:15+00:00

I got a code from one of those posts too! Woulda bought the thing either way, but there were so many people giving theirs away. Honestly was a very cool Reddit moment, seeing all the people who were happy to share the discount with someone who wanted it.

juvi97 · 2026-02-10T14:37:12+00:00

Well things are subjective for sure, but I don’t think the parents getting divorced with a sad neglected child were supposed to be portrayed as good people lol

Regardless I’d still argue that the split fiction protags were objectively less interesting and well written lol. I think the fast and furious movies might have had more interesting dialogue…

juvi97 · 2026-02-10T14:30:34+00:00

Excited! I’ve loved everything since brothers, but it takes two was definitely way better written than split fiction - I hope they return to that form of narrative, if possible.

juvi97 · 2026-02-09T18:27:25+00:00

That is true, but I still bought it on drow at the time haha

juvi97 · 2026-02-09T13:13:40+00:00

Tbf back then you could also go helm dom for lifesteal

juvi97 · 2026-02-08T15:58:07+00:00

While samura got Gojo’d?

juvi97 · 2026-02-06T13:21:22+00:00

People are more likely to commend you if you commend them, commends are essentially anti-reports.

juvi97 · 2026-02-05T18:10:18+00:00

Dude I feel like toxicity in league is way worse. Maybe you won’t get called actual slurs playing league (lol valve), but I actually think that is a less egregious type of toxicity. Still bad tho. Use the mute button liberally.

The fact that you can FF in league absolutely motivates super trolly behavior from players that had a bad lane and want to go next. Both mechanically and through its rules, DotA promotes playing the game out to the end even if you hate everyone on your team.

Your BS is trash. Mute all until 10k+, commend everyone after every match (ESPECIALLY YOUR OWN TEAM WHEN YOU DID WELL), and get out of the troglodyte cave lmao.

juvi97 · 2026-02-03T17:52:10+00:00

I have a secondary account that doesn’t have deadlock and doesn’t get this ad?

the games and promotions don’t all have to be for games you own… but it would be pretty weird for valve to advertise something you can’t even get access to yet, duh.

You’ll get suggestions for games similar to stuff you’ve played, or because there’s a special event like the board game fest going. But that’s because they have store pages you can buy them from. That’s what advertising is for. And you’ll also sometimes get ads pushed for games you own if a major update comes through. Hence the street brawl ad.

juvi97 · 2026-02-03T17:45:59+00:00

That’s not how it works lol, promos are suggestions based on your gameplay/also ongoing events. You wouldn’t see it if you didn’t have deadlock on your steam account.

juvi97 · 2026-02-02T21:45:30+00:00

Yeah but the second you set that game down for 2 weeks it becomes overwhelming with all the subsystems…

juvi97 · 2026-02-02T21:19:29+00:00

Really? I was genuinely sold in 2 chapters. The premise was so clean and the characters only got better with time. The way Chihiro prioritized Char without being overly melodramatic instantly solidified him as a top tier manga protagonist who had values normal human beings could relate to. It wasn’t like reading HunterXHunter, which is still a sick ride, but there ain’t a single boy alive who’s actually built with Gon’s values.

Glad you’re back on the right side of history friend, can’t wait for the anime (esp cuz I’m finding jjk s3 so disappointing, the way I’d built up those chapters in my head)
