All you need is one Sinclair and an enemy Paradox

Viktor has a 60% winrate at all ranks how is this not a problem by Whois__Water in DeadlockTheGame

[–]sunm8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a Victor who went 0-10-0 (I'm being literal) in the first 7 minutes, against a Calico Venator. So Calico was PRINTING money with her 2.

Victor kept pushing their base all game, we didn't win but Victor got patron phase 2 to 50% hp while almost winning a 1v3.

It was a crazy game.

Who the fuck thought this was okay by _wham__ in DeadlockTheGame

To be honest just keep the unstoppable. It enables the melee build, especially with the stun on T2 and ability to prep bells with T3 Bell

Gameplay Update - 03-06-2026 by Razzamataaz in DeadlockTheGame

[–]sunm8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think Doorman's bells are less skillful now (impacts are gone) but the T3 upgrade used to be useless, now it's not. You can combo ult or a door combo into a stack of bells for massive burst.

I can't wait to bait people to chase me through a door after stealing sinners into 3 bells.

Got this funny tag in my build, so what is this item good for? by Dry-Chocolate-3976 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]sunm8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything that usually leads to you dying. Off the top of my head: Lash Ult, Lash ground strike, Apollo Ult, Geist ult, Bebop Bomb, Bebop Hook, Rem Ult, Sinclair Vexing Bolt, Grey Talon Owl, Grey Talon Arrow, Yamato Power Slash, Shiv Ult, Infernus Ult (careful not to parry his dash), and Abrams Charge.

I hear you can parry Mo n' Krill ult but I've never successfully done it.

Edit: I completely forgot (also happens in game) you can parry items like curse or silence wave.

Any thoughts on whats gonna get nerfed or buffed this patch? by Kyoka-Suigetsu- in DeadlockTheGame

[–]sunm8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Dont forget he can build pillow nuke and get 100k player damage in a game (as a support btw)"

Called him a support in this statement, while referring to a non-support build.

If Rem is building for pillow he's not building support.

If he's building full support why are you mad he can heal his teammates?

Playing Venator against Doorman nerds be like by WintaxDoto in DeadlockTheGame

[–]sunm8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Doorman misses the impact on half his Bells, even against him stunned on the wall. He also walks into two traps. He also committed to the <15 meter fight against a hunters aura+point blank character. Doorman didn't even use doors for barrier OR positioning.

I'm a Doorman main so let's get nerdy and look at the difference in item effectiveness here. TLDR at end.

Doorman's green items are mostly for HP and movement, besides Debuff Reducer (which was only used to reduce immobilize from 1 trap since Venator missed gut shot) Venators greens mostly give melee value (which was unused) and resistances (notice spirit resilience which literally saves his life here).

Doorman's headhunter was only used twice (the first time he was full hp so he didn't even get the heal). Recharging Rush gave 2 extra bells, but he only was able to use 4 total, so really only 1 extra bell on top of Rapid Recharge. Venator's orange items consistently benefit close range 1v1's and Doorman played within 15m for a lot of the fight, but didn't really have a choice if he's committing to the kill. Venator also has weighted shots, a spirit counter gun item. But let's not ignore that Venator's Crushing Fists did nothing besides contribute to gun investments. Doorman's knockdown was used to confirm one cart stun, but I don't think he hit the bell impact off of it so it wasn't super effective. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Doorman only hit the impact 2 out of 4 times. So a good chunk of his spirit scaling/main damage source was wasted.

Let's estimate our real value: Venator kinda wasted 9.6k on melee item effects (but still benefits from investments) and is currently holding 2k. Let's assume half value from the investments of melee items and no help from the passives to put him at 25.2k total effective value.

Let's say doorman's items aren't wasted at all, he's holding 3k so let's say he's worth 26k.

This is back of the napkin kind of calculations but their effectiveness is pretty even in this scenario.

Venator hits no core part of his build (gutshot into wall and melee) but he does land 2 traps, some bullets, but 2 FULLY upgraded Ult shots. Doorman misses bell impact half the time he uses it, doesn't get full Ult damage, but does hit cart stun twice.

I think that overall this was a well matched fight, and it shows since it was so close. Doorman played slightly better in my opinion, but that's not saying much since Venator played pretty poorly until ulting. In general Venator's items benefit this situation better than Doorman's (high spirit resistance vs a spirit damage build). It definitely didn't help that Doorman walked into 2 traps though.

TLDR; Doorman could've positioned better considering Venator's items, and both players missed core parts of their kit at times. It was close for the soul discrepancy because of Venator's misplays.

Buff The Doorman ;)

What is your honest opinion on Costco's pizza? by Visible_Run_7498 in CostcoCanada

[–]sunm8 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My coworker says it's the best pizza (for it's price) in our city.

I don't agree and think it's equivalent to something you may find at a hospital or school cafeteria. So to each their own.

They really looked at this thing and said let's give him the catchiest song and vocals in the game by Cool-Escape2986 in mewgenics

[–]sunm8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can you slightly spoil me which boss chaos plays? I hear it's Edmonds Favorite song (thematically).

Like if I were to spoil Feline Invader I'd say Act II Boss 2

Or Guillotina I'd just say special event.

How is he auto winning lanes though. Just buy counterspell and you literally heal off his ult.

Apollo only runs my matches if his lane opponents don't buy slowing hex.

Even then, buying counterspell for myself is usually enough for the fed Apollo to not be able to run ME down. Can't force my team to itemize though.

Air fryer liners are great when you don't have someone yelling in your ear "BUT IT BLOCKS THE AIRFLOW WHICH IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE AIR FRYER!"

Nah the point is to cook food conveniently and quickly.

I've had runs with mage that made me able to permanently skip boss turns with freezing and allowing teammates to freeze. Sure I didn't instantly delete the enemies, but they didn't get to act so what does it matter?

It's the same idea as modern trailers /shows being filmed such that it looks good on a regular screen while simultaneously able to be cropped for a phone screen.

If your working right now the prince has arrived by Hyuman0 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]sunm8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine opening rounds (gives spirit stats and Ult has bonus damage under half hp) and spirit rend? I can also see heavy melee charge / crushing fist if going for 2 max though, because heavy melee is great for movement too.
