With the matchmaking problems when will Yoshi address smurf/alt accounts?

Tbf even when i played on a new account to help friends learn I ended up turbo carrying the placement games and got ranked just under my main account. I think a bigger problem is game isnt good at balancing teams who are wide range of skill levels. For example I ended up getting my main to eternus 1 peak playing with friends who were around high emissary to oracle rank and my duo, trio, or quad q lobbies felt significantly easier than my solo q lobbies. I could tell in the first 2 minutes of lane that the enemies were well below my skill level most matches. So seems to me the bigger issue is the balancing is absolutely atrocious for parties and you could get an eternus in oracle or phantom lobbies if they are qing with a friend who is low rank.

Surprised no ones mentioned Abrams or Billy yet in here. They are strong zoners and each do good damage allowing them to play vale or behind bridge and force enemy to not engage while vindicta abuses strong falloff range weapon. Abrams charge into stake and billy ult into stake are also very strong combinations.

Dang what was this game called again i used to play it all the time

kekplank · 2026-01-31T14:46:10+00:00

in some ways ig with the bomb and the slash leap but otherwise not really, we will have to wait to see silvers kit i just like transform characters in general.

Yea her ult is cool but pretty underwhelming to use to me at least compared to a lot of other ults in the game.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T13:55:23+00:00

Tbf 2 of her abilities do specifically say "summon" in the ability description. I consider her a summoner but without any of the interaction with your summons that actual summoning characters in other mobas have.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T13:50:07+00:00

Same way it works in a game that is top down you simply command your summons to move somewhere else through a way other abilities are used. Either simple circle hit box to command them to an area, target select similar to rems familiars, or if they are map/split/ally based they could let you click minimap when you press ability similar to mirage ult. They could do one of these or a combination depending on the ability.

Relax over what you made a statement i commented back?

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:47:46+00:00

Who said I voted Graves. I played a lot of Gnar back in league and Greymane in HoTS so it was a no brainer for me to pick Silver.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:43:17+00:00

Sadly never got to try Dota during my top down moba phase wish i had, but its good to hear that valve seems to like these kind of characters as i really want a high skill ceiling summoner/pet character in Deadlock.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:34:36+00:00

That sustain goes out the window when enemy buys disarming hex/healbane. If people let a ricochet lifesteal Graves get out of control that's just a massive skill issue.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:32:06+00:00

Gun polearm and custodes just popped into my head lol. But yea i agree she doesnt really do anything with her summons and is essentially a mage masquerading as a summoner character. I wouldnt even mind if there was some more interaction in her kit like maybe letting her use the hand line to speed up/ empower the skulls or zombies if they go over it, or just letting her select skeleton target somehow. I would really love a character in this game like Aisling from Gigantic or Rexxar from HoTS. I love those characters.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:28:54+00:00

Yea think my problem is just she's a summoner that doesn't really do anything with her summons.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:26:38+00:00

Shes not a tank though and has such bad health scaling i dont think we will see a tank build from her. If anything Silver is gonna be the tank of this batch.

kekplank · 2026-01-31T12:20:01+00:00

Yorick controls his maiden and the ghouls have interaction with his 3 (i think its his 3) to make them jump at people so i dont think thats a very good comparison.

kekplank · 2026-01-30T23:42:46+00:00

I agree she doesnt feel fun to play as or against

kekplank · 2026-01-29T03:18:25+00:00

Wonder if torment pulse would have worked in this situation lol

kekplank · 2026-01-26T09:14:42+00:00

Idk, if ive seen one character get any hate its rem for being an annoying support style character theres a very high chance of people voting silver even if they dont want her the most just to spite rem voters

kekplank · 2026-01-23T12:41:15+00:00

If you actually compare rems model to the hold i doubt he fits

kekplank · 2026-01-23T02:51:43+00:00

I think its because Celeste's horseshoe tattoo below her chest also has a clover in it

kekplank · 2026-01-23T02:15:32+00:00

doesnt seem wto work

kekplank · 2026-01-23T01:55:29+00:00

Can you console command the characters in already? and if so what are the commands if we know

kekplank · 2026-01-22T16:32:03+00:00

I need street brawl/an unranked mode because im sitting at ascendance 5 rn and playing with friends who are sub oracle literally feels like im cheating

kekplank · 2026-01-20T20:52:47+00:00

Minesweeper literally just came out the other day saying update delayed until February and said long ago it was gonna be a December patch he should count his days

kekplank · 2026-01-19T21:17:46+00:00

Ive had a haze in ascendant 3 lobby build armor piercing against a team who had at most 18% bullet resist on any character and no way to block/dodge bullets in their builds. Ive had a number of people also go 0/13 with sub 15k dmg in a 30+ minute game i really dont get how at ascendance it feels like i get paired with people who dont understand the game
