I hate to say this, but out of all champions he feels like a "chinese knock-off" of pharah the most.

He's fun but extremely clunky to use.

How do I build Makoa?

So about Ying, is she actually being reworked into a healer?
>A new age of healslut memery is upon us

>>155269048
Yes, check out her abilities on Paladins site. She still have the same abilities but now they heal allies instead of damage enemies(except for her left click).

>>155268513
hey at least it isn't hanamura

>>155269048
That's worth two peace signs.
her taunt needs to be her doing a peace sign with her toungue sticking out silly.

This is the best Pip build.
I would use Gift giver instead of medical excellence, but it's kinda useless unless you max it, and I want a max Reload because throwing down heal 2 times in a row when you're pushing is insane.
Side tanks maxed is a must.

>>155268368

Awesome!

YOU WON'T BE DATAMINING ME!!

>>155270124
I'll be jacking that build and giving it a try later.

Aside: The "Import" button while deck-building is super-handy. You just enter the name of the person who has the deck you want, and you can scroll through their builds and take it for yourself instead of manually building it.

do the matches played to get the barik skin need to be pvp?

>>155270752
Yeah, I really like the feature.
\it's super helpful since there are leaderboards for every individual champion in the profile tab.

>>155270773
Yep.

Can someone explain what do this borders mean?

>>155270925
Those borders represent your competitive rank with that character. Paladins handles ranked on a per-character basis, not an account-wide basis. Unfortunately, it's all bugged right now, so the borders will appear randomized and don't mean anything right now. If your picture was accurate, it would mean that you have a gold Grover, a gold Bomb King, a (I think) platinum Grohk, a platinum Drogoz, a platinum Skye, and a diamond Buck, while everyone else (except Androxus) is unranked.

>>155270381
Heh, you're right.
It's running in the background but it's not doing anything until you start the launcher.
I'd say it's a shitty anti-chit thing and the "update" part in the name is just for show, since the launcher handles the updates.

Just turn it off.

>>155270925
Your rank with that champion.
It's currently bugged.

>It's a teammates never buy items episode.

Can't HiRez make a BIGASS text telling people to buy items? make it not disappear until they actually buy an item. And make it pop up every new round.

>start playing yesterday with a friend
>10 games in probably an hour
>win all of them

Is this standard?
My team was absolutely retarded they kept shooting at the shield, he was alone on the point all the time. I was playing Skye, keeping their squishies back.

Communication yo.

My biggest problem with the game right now is that the lobby in the champion pick screen is AUTO CLOSED.
WHY?
No one ever bothers to open it.
How do I tell the autistic insta lock kinessa that we have no front line?

>>155271327
Your first games until level 5 are versus bots.
You saw a player that knew what to do.

>>155271608
> I just tell them to buy items.
I did too. Multiple times even, but they just don't listen.

>>155271363
People don't even go for the cap either, they think they're playing deathmatch. Don't think I've ever seen such retarded teammates in a game before.

>>155270773
I got it while I was playing just bot matches and then opened a chest after having 5 or more wins. But apparently it can be buggy and bot matches won't count for everyone.

>>155271608
>Your first games until level 5 are versus bots.
So that's why they didn't appear in the match history

It would improve general gameplay immensely if retards did just 2 VERY SIMPLE things a bit better or more often (every time would be great):

1. do objectives when you can
2. fucking buy upgrades/items

I think everyone below level 5 should be constantly reminded by the game to do that shit. Like big fucking text on their screen telling them they should focus on staying on or near the objective as much as possible. Or telling them to buy shit when they have nothing.

I wish I could quit before a match with a smaller penalty to avoid an obvious loss but no they want me to suffer unless I want a temp ban

do the time bans stack and is there a limit? I'd rather just wait 15 minutes than suffer for 10-15 minutes

>>155272568
Damage Ying was crazy hard to learn, probably one of the most difficult characters to master. Making her into a support takes a lot more pressure off of her. Plus, changing Ying into a support now evens out all the classes. We will have 4 tanks, 4 supports, 4 flanks, and 5 damage.

>>155273006
Ying is rather soft-spoken and is a real "power of friendship" type of person.

Serious question, what's the deal with this game and overwatch? How are they related?

>>155274429
OW sells so they decided to clone it.

>>155274497
so why is anyone playing the knockoff? Did they do anything to differentiate it?

>>155274585
Yea, they made it free.

>>155274225
She's fast and fun, but squishy and hard to learn.

>>155274585
paladins is free, is generally faster(in movement and match time), and has some character customization through cards

Tf2 guy here, really fun game and a hell of a switch up compared to tf. Pretty easy to start and the extra 'powers' keep things interesting, though not always for the better. I'll be playing until Overwatch inevitably goes ftp in about a year or two.

Is there a guide for all the free shit you can get in this game, promotional items and shit.

>>155274786
>Overwatch inevitably goes ftp in about a year or two.

hahahahahahahahaha ohohohohohohohohoho

>>155274849
most of it is on the paladins page, I missed some giveaways (at least 3) since they were gone before I started playing so you won't be getting those either

>>155274585

heres what I said before

paladins currently has a few things that overwatch doesn't:
elves of varying degrees of lewdness (no elves are pure though, due to being elves)
various other fantasy races
a stealth character
no genji (yet)
no mcree (no, mc reaper doesn't count since he's nowhere near as broke as mcree)
less wasted space on maps
a more fanatsy themed asthetic
currently there isnt really any hero who dosent have a get out of jail ability
and a few others
Don't forget the card system and items.
Also, no hero switching. So it feels more like a MOBA(for better or for worse).

>>155274786
>Overwatch inevitably goes ftp in about a year or two.

You have an option to turn off character voices.

Though I will admit, Minion farming always sucks. At the Minions in Battleborn look kinda cool.

>>155277951
while I DO actualy like battleborn;
battleborns ui is really cluttered
the character designs are generally better (in the sense that they're less cluttered and more cohesive)
the gear system is a bit of a problem since certain gear is all but mandatory and is locked behind rng/crazy grind

despite all this I dont think battleborn deserves all the hate it gets

>>155278692
>the character designs are generally better (in the sense that they're less cluttered and more cohesive)
I disagree. You have a very good point about clutter with Battleborn's character design, but I find it to fit together better than Overwatch.

Did games like CoD and such rotted these kids brains? Playing as Pip and it seem like every time I have my ult my choices are to use it on a large group with my team members nowhere near the fucking objective or use it on 1-2 enemies. 99% of the time my team lose because they fail to get the objective. Do they seriously don't understand that camping simply doesn't work for this type of game? I think Moba players are less shit than actual FPS players.

>>155278964
>I think Moba players are less shit than actual FPS players.
That's because teamwork and objective control are generally forced in MOBAs where in a lot of FPSes you can just shoot shit and still get things done.

>>155278964
In Paladins, MOBA players would probably fare better as long as they know how to aim.

>>155279120
That the thing, as Pip and personally sucking ass on FPS games I often get more eliminations and objective time (even though I am safer in the back SOMEONE gotta push the cart up some) than anyone else and that not even counting the healing. I used to go for cooldown reduction so I can spam potions more but now I find myself going for faster reload because I pretty much have to play solo while everyone else try to camp and fail at it.

My aim is god damn awful and with Pip AoE helping me some admittedly I shouldn't be the best player of the game almost every single time. I'm almost at the point where I'm willing to add people from /vg/ and just deal with the shitty memes and cringe they may cough up.

>>155279120
No.

You guys are forgetting about the niche F2P/unknown shooter markets. Games like Firefall, Natural Selection 2, Nosgoth, and others all have communities that have ended up in the current OW/Paladins/BB genre as their home.

>>155279486
I mean compared to standard FPS players who only play stuff like CoD.

no, there should be at least 1 second of 'downtime' where you can be helping cap the point and still sniping. Unless your Kinessa is getting like 150k+ dmg without touching the point and winning it for you, it's not worth it.

I really want to like this game (OW is getting kinda boring due to the lack of content) but holy shit this game is ugly. I always hated Smite for that reason; Hi(Low)-Rez is absolutely terrible when it comes to polished graphics. It looks so clunky and ugly.

I think in general moba players are better when it comes gaming. Most fps are basically just how well you can aim, and knowing the map, both of which arent hard. In a game like this where there's delays and abilities and skill building/cards, it's no surprise that the majority of fps players are paint-drinking morons who can only play Viktor. It's why they stick to csgo(and they really should stay there).

Apparently you don't get any gold and exp from Training matches after reaching account lvl 13. Why can't I be a shitter in peace?

SKYE IS LITERALLY WIDOWMAKER

>>155288047

SKYE TRACER

>>155288047
>Viktor
How

>>155288294
very easy to use, good damage output, pretty deadly ult. Victor is easy to play even for noobs.

>>155288438
>even for noobs
Yesterday I tried to get my ult of 5 times and either somebody killed me or it didn't do anything.

>>155288262
Only her ult is OP, if they nerf the radius it should be fine.

>>155288221
Evie is good for being hella annoying. She can stay in a fight for a long time due to her iceblock, teleport and soar. She also has really good normal attack damage. Ult is decent for throwing on an objective.


>>155288294
Viktor is easy as fuck to play. He's the go-to for shitters.

>>155288221
Evie's shot deals 950 damage.
Her blink gives her 30% damage to her next shot
Her ice block gives her 30% damage to her next shot

30% of 950 is 285.
if you blind and hit someone point blank that's 1235 damage + one more shot that's 2185, with aggression at rank one that's 2299.

So, Evie can kill any non front liner with 2 shots, while having the most mobility in the game.

Math magic.

>team doesn't pick a healer
>i already picked a front line
>someone switches to Barik at the last second
>no healer
>enemy team has double font line + healer and 2 dps
>lose

they can't keep getting away with this

>>155288597
>tfw I can hardly ever hit anyone with the damn thing

What items do you buy usually? I suppose it must be mostly hero dependent but I wouldn't mind having some quick tips about what items should be avoided or, on the contrary, picked as soon as you can.

>>155288272
Skye is sombra anon :^)

>opposing team has 2+ tanks
>none of your dps take the extra damage vs shield card

for what purpose

>>155288839
It takes getting used to, but the point is to Flank behind someone.
Always use the blink range card at max rank, you can blink through 2/3 of some maps with it.
Just teleport behind someone and shoot them point blank 2 times, you can't miss it, then fly out with soar and spam V E T.

>>155288847
Shield destroyers is must have

>>155288847
shield wrecking is good especially if multiple people have it but if they have a shit frontliner like barik or no frontliner then it's useless but then again then their team will be most likely useless as well

>>155288847
Moral Boost on Skye is a must to be honest.
her ult is what makes her true cancer, so you want it up asap.
You don't need Cauterize since your poison shot's also lower healing, and you shouldn't be the one shooting at tanks to need Wrecker.

Other than Pip and Evie needing 1 rank in Aggression for their kill combo, everything else depends on the enemy team.

Also, Riding is great on Barik, since you can set up your turrets before anyone even gets to the point.

Also, always take item for more healing from allies when you have a good Grover, since his heal is a constant dot.

>>155277892
He wasn't nerfed, per se. He was retooled from a flanker with melee attacks and a spin-to-win ult into a support healer who throws his axes (again).

>>155286151
That's bad Kinessas. A good Kinessa provides stellar overwatch for the team and helps take the point when the coast is clear. Don't blanket-ban all Kinessas.

>>155289051
>>155289320
>>155289335
thanks

game down or just me

>>155289335
>Also, Riding is great on Barik, since you can set up your turrets before anyone even gets to the point.
Master Riding is good for all the tanks. Your job is to get to the front as soon as possible, so the sooner you get back in action the sooner your team can resume the offensive.

>>155289649
Until now I had a bad game while playing with Kinessa and it was an enemy team complete stomp. Nobody blamed me but it felt completely like "useless widow" all over again.

>>155285547
>>155287041

>Can't keep the enemy team out of the objective for 6 seconds

You don't deserve to win.

>>155290220
maybe if re spawn times were longer sure

right now anyone can just run right into it and stall

>>155286151
>>155289649
Kinessa's are really dependent on the match up. If they have a really good flank, they can gank you pretty often and you can't really get your damage out. OR they could all run to point down the largest sightline in the game, and you get a triple kill and support the other 2 kills.
There's a lot of factors that can change her effectiveness, but I'd say those are the two most important changes.

>>155290313
And a good team can blow up whoever runs into it. It's not a big deal.

>>155290220

>>155287754
I'll bite.

Fernando doesn't have a grabbing charge. Uses a short range flamethrower. Ult is defensive, not ofensive.

Cassie doesn't have a "kill everything in a straight line" ult. Doesn't wall jump. Don't have a sonar. Don't have a panic "kill everything around me button". She has a bow. Therefore she's Hanzo. Strawberrys are also apples, because both are red.

Bombking does not have traps, nor mines. Just time bombs or trigger bombs. Ult has him repositioning himself towards the enemy.

Viktor and Soldier 76 are literally generic soldiers. We're all soldiers now. Also, Viktor doesn't have a healing field, nor an aim bot ult.

BARIK AND TORBJORN ARE LITERALLY TF2 ENGINER

Reaper has a teleport, immunity to damage, and AoE ult. Androxus has a dash, and a cannon ball projectile ult. Mcree has a revolver, a combat roll, can shot his revolver fast, and a "kill everyone on my screen ult". Androxus has a revolver and he can shoot it fast. Pears and watermelons are also the same thing because both are green. And blizzard seems to hold a patent on revolvers, bows, and being edgy.

Hoadhog has health regen, a shotgun, and a hook skill. Makoa has a cannon, spin dash, shield, and a hook skill. Scorpion has hellfire, teleport and a hook skill. Apparently blizzard also has a patent on hooks.

How do you even open teh chat?

>>155290313
>>155290426

And what's your excuse for them getting to the payload alive?

There's 10 meters between the objective and the base at any give map, enough to kill them.

Stop looking for excuses and get good.

Come to terms with the iminent defeat.

And to be fair, Skye's job is to keep the enemy team from getting to the objective.

She's made of paper, if she sits on the objective, she's gonna get killed. She's supposed to be going on enemy territory and killing / distracting / damaging the enemy so that her team can capture the objective.

Kinessa has no excuse, she's supposed to be deploying mines everywhere, be near the objective, and sniping enemies from there. Of course, she needs the tank support, but that's true for everyone on the capture point.

>>155291328
Fernando's shield is identical to Reinhardt's

Androxus is a reskinned Reaper

Barik is a dwarf who builds turrets

Ruckus is a little guy who pilots a large bipedal mech with a high rate of fire and a shield

Bomb King is a guy who throws bombs, can pop himself up in the air with his own bomb, and has an ult where you remote control a large spinning bomb

Makoa is a big tank who uses a chain to hook you in and blast you at close range

nevermind, I figured it out.

You can blink while iceblocked, which is hilarious. Now I understand why her ult is really ehh, because she literally cannot die if you don't fuck up like I do, and you build up so much meter you can use it almost twice a round.

What items should I be buying? I went Cauterize for this specific game, but should I be going aggression to twoshot squishies that don't build blast armor? Aggression normally looks really bad, but it looks decent on her.

Do you consider Cassie a counter to Skye? I do, considering her ult reveals her, she can knock her away if she gets too close, and she's hard to 100-0 burst if she rolls. She can even roll your ult.

>Tells team to buy items
>Kinessa told me "don't talk, kurwa"
>Me with Barik ends up top score, Kinessa with 700 points.

I am not surprised anymore.

>>155299926
I've gotten messed up by Cassie as Skye before. I believe it. Her dodge roll makes her naturally difficult to pin down, which doesn't work in Skye's favor when she needs to be close to do maximum damage. Lots of Cassies will panic roll when they suddenly take a lot of damage all at once or at least hear Skye's decloak noise.

It can be canceled early, completely save you from certain ults like Ruckus's, give time for other cooldowns to come up, and certain cards interact with it for things like massive healing or reload.

First level up a few times to get chest rolls. When you start feeling like you are taking too long to level up you should start unlocking all cards. This way you'll waste less gold and you'll also be honoring our jew overlords by following their ways.

I was just listing uses. It's pretty easy to just blink+soar after you wait the full duration. If you've got the regen card, even if it is shitty, there should be no way they'll kill you before you fly outta there.

>>155298734
but whyyyyyy

>>155300913
Because Evie has enough options as it is.

So in order, who is the hottest?
(My list)
Evie
Ying
Cassie
Kinessa

Ying = Skye>Kinessa>Cassie>>>>>>>Evie

>>155300852
Unless you ice block at full health, it's actually very easy to kill Evie out of it. Even blink isn't instant and I'm sure you know that she's made of glass even when she's in good health.

GET IN HERE!!!!!

That's a hell of a lot of burst if you can take her down in the 1 second between ice block going down and blink activating. If you're ice blocking in front of 3 people you probably shouldn't be there.

What could he mean

Reminder that shipping goes against both established canon and the creators' vision for the game and therefore you are not a true fan of the game.

It isn't. One headshot capable character can easily destroy Evie if she isn't on full health before she's able to blink out.
