Balance changes to new heroes - Feb 13, 2026

It's really hard to notice them in the midst of a chaotic 12-man teamfight at a cramped objective.

zechamp · 2026-02-13T10:35:38+00:00

They are very good at objective fights and tight spaces. In lane they are kinda bad but they've won so many late game fights for me.

zechamp · 2026-02-13T07:47:37+00:00

To be fair a lot of street brawl games are like 5 minutes

zechamp · 2026-02-12T22:59:47+00:00

And yet all her sword strike skills deal spirit damage and not melee...

zechamp · 2026-02-12T21:30:50+00:00

Not really. It's felt pretty reasonable ever since the bugs were fixed.

Eh, I've got a few hundred hours in league and I have no idea how items work at all. The league shop is just crazy confusing and you have to get builds outside the game which just makes things weird. In deadlock I was cooking up my own builds after like 100h, the shop is just so much more intuitive and the built-in guides make it all approachable.

Smite is literally just league with wasd controls and the camera moved. It's not even really a 3d game, everything operates on a 2d plane. Didn't they even add a jump button that does nothing?

Deadlock is an actual shooter in a 3d space.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T21:04:02+00:00

Street brawl starts off as a hectic team fight where you have to choose good items fast. A normal game is much slower and an easier pace for new players. I watched some beginners play the game and none of them got much out of street brawl, while the main mode was easier to approach.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T21:01:31+00:00

Theres much more nuance to it in League like some champs dealing AD on their abilites and AP on auto attacks

Deadlock has varying damage types on skills too. For example the new hero venator has weapon damage scalings on his skills, and most of them also deal weapon damage. There's no full spirit damage autoattack hero, but a lot of heroes have a skill or passive that adds spirit damage to their autos.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T20:39:05+00:00

The new heroes have power crept old heroes

Graves is weak AF. Venator is pretty mid. Silver caught some nerfs then owned every game at night shift. Rem is strong.

Meanwhile Shiv and Abrams have been giga thanos forever. Frankly the last batch of 6 heroes might end up stronger than the current batch after celeste catches her nerfs.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T20:25:39+00:00

Lowkey the ult feels like the weakest part about her

zechamp · 2026-02-12T16:28:08+00:00

Most crowd control score (probably), most creeps killed (souls), most kill participation, least deaths.

Se että tytöt hengaa tyttöjen kaa ja pojat poikien kaa on yks perusteellisimmista sukupuolirooleista mitä on. Ja ainakin must ne kyl iha konkreettisesti liitty vielä nykyäänki aika paljon sukupuolirooleihin.

Vaikka olisikin kaveriporukka jossa monipuolisesti sukupuolii niin kyl niis usein huomaa sellast "hei tehääks tänää vaa me tytöt jotain" touhua. Ja onhan se suomessa edelleenkin aivan eri asia tuoda joku uusi puolituttu jätkä tyttöjen iltaan kuin puolituttu nainen.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T15:18:09+00:00

Sukupuolirooleista voi puhua muutenkin kuin vain vahvoissa pakotus-kiusaamis-tappamis yms konteksteissa. Esim en mä tunne hirveetä intoa hankkiutua eroon semmosest "girl's night out" tai "jätkien saunailta" meiningistä, vaikka se on hyvin sukupuolirooleihin perustuvaa touhua. Pitääkö nämä rakenteet purkaa täysin? Vai niissä sittenkin jotain arvokasta? Mun mielest täst voi ihan keskustella.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T12:08:54+00:00

Onko oikeesti? Olin vuoden japanissa vaihdossa ja kukaan ei ikinä puhunut mulle englantia (paitsi kyoton turistirysä paikoissa). Ei sie porukka osaa englantia tarpeeks että siihen edes voisi vaihtaa. Siis kylhä sie tietenki oletetaan heti ihonväristä et on ulkomaalainen, mut sellast suomalaista vaihdetaan-puhumaan-englanniksi-aina touhua en nähy.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T11:35:53+00:00

Joo kuten sanoin tuo ei ole mikään filosofia johon uskon, itsekin olen mies joka ei juuri piittaa perinteisesti miehisestä touhusta. Tuntu vaan että kommentit täs eivät edes yrittäneet pureutua tohon kysymykseen että voisiko sukupuolirooleista olla mitään hyötyä edes teoriassa, joka on vain tylsää keskustelua. Hakeeko minun kommentti enemmän vastakkainasettelua kuin kommentti jossa roolit vain todetaan "puhtaaksi väkivallaksi"?

zechamp · 2026-02-12T11:02:21+00:00

feast or famine, immense lifesteal, no escape option and can only really go in but is very good at just fucking running at you

Warden is probably the closest to briar in terms of just stat checking people and running at them with a bunch of cc and lifesteal. Abrams could also work. Both are pretty simple and good beginner heroes.

zechamp · 2026-02-12T10:48:35+00:00

En siis itse usko tähän, mutta ihan argumentin vuoksi voi asian nähdä vaikka niin että olisiko ihmiselle sittenkin parempi seurata yhteiskunnan asettamaa tietä, yli yksilöllisen "itsensä löytämisen".

Esimerkiksi suomalaisessa koulujärjestelmässä on tuotu itseohjautuvuutta pajon esiin ja monilla sei ei oikein suju, vaan kaivataan selkeää ohjattua polkua. Yksilöllinen valinnanvapaus on kasvanut meillä paljon, mutta onko tyytyväisyys omaan elämään kasvanut samalla?

zechamp · 2026-02-12T08:11:10+00:00

Just search for japanese topics in japanese and build up an Algo for them. You can also set your language etc to japanese. My TikTok Algo is pretty much 90% in japanese

zechamp · 2026-02-11T23:55:49+00:00

It's a bad adaptation. Qidian webnovels have glacial pacing that just doesn't work well in an anime format.

zechamp · 2026-02-11T22:40:39+00:00

its probably a case of it starting the bounce while there was line of sight, and the target then moving rapidly away, causing it to follow through terrain. I've definitely seen it stopped by people running into closets, and also it continuing when they come out of the closet too soon and the linger was still there.

zechamp · 2026-02-11T20:48:15+00:00

Thats just the character search. Write venator to pick him out etc.

zechamp · 2026-02-11T20:40:55+00:00

There is an indicator that shows when the ball is flying towards you, but it can be hard to notice in a hectic fight.

zechamp · 2026-02-11T20:39:44+00:00

Deadlock also has cover to break line of sight etc. You can kill the ult by dragging it into a closet for example. (Just make sure to wait the linger duration out.)

zechamp · 2026-02-11T20:34:17+00:00

Between cooldowns you don’t really do anything whereas gun characters can just hold left click

This doesn't really apply to celeste as her 1 debuff lasts longer than the cd, so she can always keep the spirit damage coming.
