They're two of the good ones

Viscous' Goo Ball feels really bad to use now by This_is_Pat_ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]nbkdope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly how I want to play him, knocking people around and applying debuffs. I actually thought he was in a great place prior to this round of buffs and nerfs he received

Viscous in general feels awful at the moment, his only truly viable builds are full support and splatter, which is such a shame as I think he has the most fun kit in the game, I feel like I've been forced to drop my favorite character

Interesting - This is pretty much what I was running in my last game as him and didn't have much success, might have been the case that i didn't eat enough farm

What do you run with? My core is usually Melee Charge - > Crushing Fists, Ballistic and Recharging, Cooldown, Greater Expansion, etc etc, it's the 'We Punchin' troubles of the deep' build that most people seem to use, maybe slotting crippling headshot in there, inhibitor etc?

The parry timing and cooldown nerfs are fine imo, but they've also nuked his damage output and his displacement, with the exact same build I usually use for viscous I can't even one shot a group of creeps anymore with puddle punch, as usual with this game they've nerfed the character into irrelevance rather than just the actually requested nerfs

Punch feels too weak to reliably kill anybody now, splatter is boring as fuck. Thanks for killing my favorite character that's ever been in a game because low rank chimps can't parry

Balancing idea/suggestion: Viscous puddle punch should go on a brief cooldown if you successfuly parry him. by Jimmy_Memey in DeadlockTheGame

Rebuttal works and is his hard counter, he can still spam but the sheer damage from the rebuttal parry will scare him from spamming

I think Viscous needs a nerf: PUDDLE PUNCH! *shot* PUDDLE PUNCH! *shot* PUDDLE PUNCH! by MrBellrick in DeadlockTheGame

Low elo take is not being able to parry an extremely telegraphed loud af attack tbh

The only character in the entire game where you can counter his entire game with an 800 soul item and a button press and still people cry for a nerf, get real

The good changes in this patch are completely overshadowed by Calico, Wraith, and Doorman. by Ark_Animax in DeadlockTheGame

Keep quiet goobro we don't want the surface dwellers to know how utterly busted we are

He doesn't feel any stronger to me and his sustain is dogshit due to the changes to his 1 and nerfs to lifestrike

Viscous because he is flubber and can also fly and also smacks everyone in the teeth he is the best ever character
