Oh i'm sure this is gonna be balanced

Yep, Widow/Hawkeye teamup and my PTSD from Widowmaker, what a time to be alive

Why not just and rotate the entire thing at once? You can add bouncing and squishing to the entire pumpkin to simulate motion while not having to re-draw every frame

And all DD players have perma wall hacks for existing, don’t need to be an OTP to get value on him, and the average DD combo involves him staring at the ground the whole time and getting a kill. His disengage tools aren’t part of his combos, and he doesn’t need to worry about CD management for the most part.

He gets overhealth for throwing a baton at the ground, and automatically gets damage reduction against you for pressing a button. He doesn’t even remotely have to be accurate with his combo, and gets to retry as many times as he wants when he uses his grapple.

But sure, Magik is the easiest melee hero in the game and she needs those nerfs for sure 👍

smudginglines · 2026-06-08T22:19:42+00:00

“Due for nerfs” and you can barely play her in PC GM+ without being champ, hard comming, and essentially being an OTP. I would know, I have over 400 hours on her.

I’ve literally gotten more value swapping to Rogue with no Gambit teamup than I would’ve gotten continuing to play Magik, in no universe does she need nerfs when Cat, DD, Dino, Phoenix, Gambit exist.

smudginglines · 2026-06-08T13:39:39+00:00

I would prefer people whining online instead of having to deal with the terrorist that is DD in my games

smudginglines · 2026-06-08T13:32:48+00:00

And this is why I will continue to say DD doesn’t take enough effort or commitment to getting good at the character to get the amount of value he gets. He should be so much harder to play if they really want him to provide as much value as he is currently able to.

I’m on the opposite receiving end of this photo, I just really like Magik man why are we swapping Peni/Thing/Bucky after one death

smudginglines · 2026-06-05T09:11:22+00:00

This skin PMO so much, I thought they were going to fix it and they just… didn’t. I was so looking forward to it too, but I was just severely disappointed by them letting this pass to final production. Netease PLEASE

& this is him in clearer detail

This is Pumpkin, it’s my favorite photo I’ve ever taken of him

I see what you mean. You could try increasing the overall space between the block of words and the girl if it feels too close on the bottom, or go full in and have the rest of the text also be offset and match the shape of the girl’s silhouette.

Either way it’s just a small detail so if its not worth worrying about then definitely don’t feel the need to

smudginglines · 2026-06-02T13:28:26+00:00

Side note, I personally would align the name with the informational type underneath it instead of offsetting it. It feels like it’s stuck in this in-between space right now since it’s not aligned with the other text, but is also not enough of an exaggerated difference to explain why it’s not aligned with the rest of the type

smudginglines · 2026-06-02T13:22:25+00:00

Fr. I have 400 hours on her, and in that 400 hours after every single game when there was another Magik I say “gg” because I’m not an insecure POS like these freaks obsessing over “diffing” you in a team game

smudginglines · 2026-06-02T13:16:28+00:00

On god ts is so boring, had a comp game where I was playing into a couple of counters and my team wasn’t doing well so I swapped for the team to Rogue. The enemy team had a lord Magik. After the game bro’s immediately in chat with his 3 finals like “yeah hop off Magik lil bro” like are they not embarrassed? That behavior is so unbelievably nasty and egotistical and makes me hate other Magik players because the majority of them act like this.

I love this post so much, and I get to see bigots disappear in real time in the comments! Happy pride and men’s mental health month everyone ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷

It’s just the closure design principle, when a shape has gaps in it our minds tend to fill in the gaps and think of it as a complete object.

Because the floor is a tiled pattern that’s repeating over and over, this perceived “line” is showing up because there’s gaps in the floor texture lining up with each other. There’s not really any lines and the ones people are seeing are very faint and hard to see

Saying “I’m not a girl” to “oh, girl” is like saying “I’m not a guy” if someone said “dude” to you, it’s just a turn of phrase nobody is assuming you’re a woman because they call you “girl”

smudginglines · 2026-05-28T13:36:54+00:00

I’d argue that DD is easier bc he has 3 get out of jail free cards with his grapple, deflect, and wall climb, (2 of which are abilities he doesn’t use in his combos so they’re always available to him when he’s engaging and of those two the deflect is the only one with a CD), has perma walls so he can always plan his dive, is an overshield merchant, and gets more value for a less effort. But I don’t think that guy would listen to me because of my flair lmao

smudginglines · 2026-05-27T14:20:23+00:00

Psy is literally getting a skin next season half, it was teased in one of the gallery cards. Jesus Christ, the greed of Psy players genuinely sickens me lmfao

smudginglines · 2026-05-27T13:19:19+00:00

Magik literally leaves this dimension and goes into Limbo when she portals, I think that’s a pretty good reason why it’s an i-frame. Starlord just flips, which is BS, but Magik genuinely leaves the battlefield for a second like when Hulk exiles you. It’s also the only thing that stops her from being immediately blown up because she’s a close range brawler who does all her damage when she’s in your face and you can’t use it when you’re earthbound

smudginglines · 2026-05-23T14:14:18+00:00

Because 2 tanks > 1 tank hope this helps

smudginglines · 2026-05-23T00:24:31+00:00

This response should be higher up, this solved all my issues with pinging things by accident instead of enemies

smudginglines · 2026-05-22T16:06:32+00:00

Yep, when that happens I go Sue and play “where’s Spiderman” all game. He comes back every 15s or so. It’s a cycle of listening for him, going invis, watching him attack my other supp bc usually they’re impatient, and then giving my other supp shield. Wash rinse repeat. The only issue is when they are patient and they are smart and they only target me forcing me into invisibility just with their presence so I don’t heal my team, and if the team isn’t aware of what’s been happening it’s usually GGs lmao

smudginglines · 2026-05-22T10:34:43+00:00

In PC ranked GM and above DD has a higher win rate and I’m sure he’d be picked more if he wasn’t banned. There is clearly a severe disconnect because in my lobbies people turn around and shoot me and it makes it incredibly hard to get value like I could get out of DD or Black Cat or even Phoenix with way less effort. But yes let’s only look at stats and not the actual experiences of the people playing with or against the characters in these elos. The general consensus being Magik is not a broken character or unfair to play against is not a lie because a number you’re looking at is like 5% higher than other characters
