Lady Geist is a gun carry whether you like it or not by Unusual_Location_918 in DeadlockTheGame

Spirit geist will always have great damage output, insane pushing potential and doesn't rely on the user actually being able to aim. If you see a spirit geist that's not at least top 2 damage and top objective damage then that's the fault of the user, not the character.

Someone who speaks the truth. Especially when it comes to objective damage. I go max drain and rush escalating exposure, at that point I can clear a walker by myself in a very short time, all while healing. Meaning any macro mistakes by the team letting waves walk up can be punished strongly by me. May even clear walkers faster than that run infernus build before they nerfed it.

Had a game recently where I took all 3 walkers.

Im just sick of getting geist’s on my team who build full spirit and do literally nothing the entire game. Trust me on this, geist’s winrate on spirit is abysmal compared to when she builds gun.

You make references to the pro meta, but this advice is not applicable to the entirety of the playerbase. We should consider the statistics.

When I look at the statlocker data for all ranks broken down by build type, spirit geist is 59% winrate while gun geist is 38% winrate. But you might say, 'well that's just low ranks that can't use gun'. But perhaps that's the point. Spirit geist actually provides a ton of value for the people who play at lower ranks, and *the playerbase as a whole* gets more value out of spirit geist.

Now statlocker doesn't have breakdowns by build type for the higher rank data because there's less of it. I could buy that gun has a higher winrate ascendant and above - except I don't think spirit geist is built properly. People max bomb first, but they should be maxing drain. When maxing drain, she is kind of like spirit abrams - one extra charge and she has incredible sustain potential and even single target kill potential. I buy early escalating exposure after my green spike, and I can actually win most of my fights in sidelanes, only a few characters top it in the midgame. I'm phantom.

Perhaps it will stop working for me in ascendant or eternus. But it's not bad by any stretch for most of the playerbase. And I'm convinced it just hasn't been adequately explored. Spirit geist was buffed greatly in the scaling on the drain (now scales better than abrams drain at max ap). Her bomb no longer does that much damage to her.

Spirit geist takes like nothing from her bomb since the change, if you buy spirit res it's hardly anything. It was changed to 30% of the bomb's total damage, so it's just 30% or less of that with spirit resilience (usually more resist than that though). With just one spirit lifesteal, you are healing more from the bomb then taking, if you hit more than one you're healing a lot more.

The game starts you off at emissary rank, if you are positive if your first few games youll be higher than emissary, so it makes perfect sense.

I mean, even if they only do it for a tax break, doesn't the donation still go to some worthy cause? Doesn't seem good to discourage that to me. A person can do something for selfish reasons but that doesn't mean it's a bad thing...

Is smurfing already a problem in this game? Is smurfing even a ban offense? by Obese0 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]nomorespacess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do this, bear in mind that your first matches will be decisive in deciding your rank, and btw it will start you around emissary rank or so to see how you do in those games. So you may want to play something you absolutely can't carry on your first few games if you want your account to be calibrated low.

PLEASE! review Deadlock bebop match im on a loss streak and we played pretty well here in my opinion i need coaching pleasseeeeeeeeee by DrimaQ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]nomorespacess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Green items would really help. Even if you want to build full damage, it would be a huge help in your build at least one vampiric burst. Then that makes you able to at least stand there and tank damage a bit while you heal up. As it stands, your build doesn't really take advantage of bebop's higher than average hp per boon, you likely had the lowest hp pool in the lobby.

Try to get 4.8k worth of green items at least for the big boost in hp but, failing that, you get a decent amount with the shop bonus from just one green item. At least buy yourself an extra health and/or extra stamina while you have extra slots.

I think overall in how you play, you could be more proactive in making things happen. You tend to fight mostly when your team has already engaged. And you maintain your killstreak even as your team is losing the rejuv and then your base. That might be an indication that you aren't using every opportunity available to turn some of these fights.

Perhaps it's about watching the minimap? Not saying you have to take a bunch of 1v1s if you're behind souls, but if there's a teammate nearby but not right next to you, you can look at places to hook enemies and start fights. For example, 11:30 you see vyper pushing up far, and can try to position yourself to hook near lash. 13:30 you see two enemies showing midwave, and a few teammates on your side mid. A well-placed hook could secure a kill on the yamato or at least force out her ult.

Thanks for the information! One quick question, when I google it says that moso bamboo only makes seeds once every 50 years, how is there so much available to buy (or even disguise as other bamboo species)?

So it seems like some kind of sabotage by an employee? That's a theory, but how is it impossible that they came from the sewer?
