So what exactly happens when the new anti-cheat detects a cheater? It installed yesterday and today I'm getting games that just stop at the beginning of the second round and then get put back in the lobby. I've never cheated so if it's a bug it's new and really weird.

But there is a bug that kicks you out of matches at random times, but it kicks you out at the log in screen, not at the lobby, so I'm not sure what causes that.

Just came back after playing 5 matches, and I was on the losing team on every single one. I've noticed that it has gotten a lot more common that I end up with confused retards, while the enemy team always seems to be well coordinated and know what they're doing. Is there any point in playing this game if you're not good enough to carry your whole team by yourself? I'm getting pretty sick of getting steamrolled 90% of the time.

It's getting pretty stale nowadays, most of these "coordonated" teams are just good players that had the luck to be matched together or premades, so by example, you had the luck to get a pro Ying and a pro Fernando/Any frontliner that is not Ruckus, that game will be an easy win.

But by following this logic, the enemy team could have more 'good' players, practically obliterating the good players on your team.
There's also the chance that you get mouthbreathing BRs or allies that are allergic to the point.

The problem with Paladins' POTG is not merely that the plays shown aren't as good as they could be, but also that there just isn't enough fanfare to it, or to the end of the match in general. Consider what happens in both Paladins and Overwatch when the postgame begins.

Overwatch
>VICTORY/DEFEAT flashes across the screen with a little flourish
>Cut to a group shot of the winning team in assorted iconic poses
>"PLAY OF THE GAME/MATCH" is announced, with the winning character getting a short 5-6 second cutscene of themselves showing off and being themselves
>Shows the POTG
>Goes to the MVP cards, where players can vote for the best performer for additional accolades (complete with minor character banter)
>Goes to medals and personal performance (the scoreboard, effectively)

Paladins
>VICTORY/DEFEAT blinks onto the screen
>Cuts directly to "Top Play" (no verbal announcement) and shows the winning character just standing around in their default pose silently for a few seconds
>Cuts into the POTG
>Cuts to the match MVPs (measured by Hi-Rez standards, not player standards) and scoreboard

Like it or not, it's another showcase of just how much spitshine Blizzard puts into Overwatch and how it makes Hi-Rez look amateur by comparison. Overwatch's POTG (postgame in general) is simply more engaging and makes people interested in winning it. It's not the case in Paladins, which is why players don't currently care for it. Until you get POTG cutscenes like Viktor diving for cover before popping out and shooting his rifle or Barik dancing a little jig atop his bouncing turret, people don't want it.

When will we get a real loli witch hero, that can use spells to confuse people, but also summon familiars?

She could summon a bunny which gives speed to all allies nearby her, a wolf which gives a damage boost to allies nearby her, or a deer which heals allies nearby her.
Her ultimate is an owl, which confuses every enemy in a certain distance around her.

because he was either spasticly op or worthless depending on a few number tweaks.
shockingly enough a melee champ with crazy amounts of mobility, damage, durability and sustain was actualy a terrible design choice.
I agree that current grover is pretty arkward but given the choice I'd rather have the new one than the old one.

>>161655945
Just remove his axe and make him a frontline beefy healer.

Here is my meme.
>Tree punch
Melee range with low damage that applies venom, very slow yells "A TREE KILLED YOU! A TREEEEE" if it kills you, any allies hit are covered in thorny vines that grant a small shield and a damage shield to enemies that stand nearby (card)
>Thorny vines
Same as throw axe, but vines, leaves a venom debuff


There, his kit makes sense now.

Not saying I'm good or anything but I got some tips for people who play with Grover.

>Memorize places where you can escape with Vine beforehand
>You can climb on the roofs with vine
>Use Vine on other players A LOT
>Vine to low hp person -> heal -> BODYBLOCK
>Did I mention Bodyblocking ?
>If you're dueling someone in mid/close range use your RMB A LOT (especially on that piece of shit Evie)
>Dismount before reaching the point for two or more preemptive axes (600~1k dmg+)
>Annoy the shit out of Kinessa (you can sometimes two shot her or just doing damage will help your flanker)
>Buy Bulldozer against Barik to two shot his turrets
>That Makoa WILL hook you

If you follow these tips you are already the best Grover you have ever seen.

So I mainly play supports, but I can't help being a shit healer on Pip. I usually heal less than half of what I heal on other supports. Ying healing is a no-brainer, Grohk has insane burst healing, Grover is a walking aoe heal, but Pip's is just bad. I think they should give his right-click lifesteal for all allies, but I reckon even then he would be the shittiest healer.
>inb4 he has dps and control
Well then the categories are shit, and there should be a fifth category called "control" or I don't even know - actually, put Pip and BK in there

Who the fuck thought this was a good idea. I wanna start playing my least played champs but I can't because it's gonna put me against 2400 ELO autists in stacks. It's so fucking frustrating. When you click Play, Casual should put you in the same game with the next 9 people who click Play. This way you get a max 10 second queue time and you also get to play with complete randoms and try out new champs without having to give your 100% every game.

I made the mistake of playing 6-7 champs only and now that my Casual ELO is high I can't try any new champs without getting stomped because every game is full of diamonds, masters and autistic tourneyfags who will take advantage of every mistake I make.

A good anything that does damage fucks Ruckus up. That's why you don't run him as solo tank. Ever.

Repulsor Field is ACTUALLY so good when your team takes advantage of it. My god.
>>
Ruckus as a solo tank: You get on the point. The enemies are approaching. Shit. You use your Emitter, but they have Wrecker. You've at least got some HP, but they see you're all alone, and the flanks can smell fear. You activate Repulsor Field, naturally no one is near to benefit from the buff or help you out. You die with 9000 damage taken all from different champions, and the enemy team takes the point.

Ruckus with another frontliner and healer: Dude 50% damage reduc for entire team lmao *caps point and pushes cart without going below 2k HP*

Not sure. If you're one of the few they are using for testing it your probably just really unlucky since it's really a beta. It currently increases ping and crashes the game for some.

>>161724523
Well his Repulsor Field is the REAL deal about Ruckus. Emitter is just a weaker way to prevent damage which is there to deal with chip damage and make it so you don't have to use Repulsor Field every time you take damage instead of using it to win fights vs enemies once they engage your team (who are all close by you)

Drogoz can scatter his team too....... So yeah Drogoz fucks Ruckus up in general. Bomb King too.

Most of the time the ultimate will hit, there just isn't enough time to shoot him down, you can't argue with this.
>>
>>161725068
That's entirely dependant on the map.

On Timber Mill, Frog Isle, Fish Market and Ice Mines there's enough room that if Dragon Punch comes towards the cap from any of the nearby corners there's enough time to kill unless you're not revved up and shooting or reloading.

And Serpent Isle, Jaguar Falls and Frozen Guard are cramped shit maps and thus irrelevant to this discussion.

I played OW and PAL both
You just kinda get the feeling that OW has at least 3 times more effort into it

While Paladins has that... how to call it...
That F2P vibe to it, you know? That "we don't give a shit about the little details, this game is a bait and hook in the store to get players that don't have the cash to buy OW, then pick sides and toss money in here for bullshit"

I'm not saying Paladins is bad or that Overwatch is better, it's just like comparing the iPhone to that chinese cheap copycat "iPnoho". It's not a ripoff and nobody says fucking apple is better than anything, but once you got both in your hands, the iPhone just feels more... premium? Noble? Upscaled?

That is a prime example of a bad 'Nando. A Fernando should always try his best to shield his teammates, and to also balance when He should attack, and when He should shield.

Some questions about comp

>What are the Ranks?
I'm guessing that in Casual the highest you can get is Gold, and that in order to move beyond you need to win X amount of times per new rank?
>How does it effect ELO?
Is it the same as Casual? Do you get the same matchmaking as Casual?

ie Platnium back to Gold if you lose (only times I play haven't lost)
>>
>>161730042

Ranks:
Level 1 is Bronze, Level 3 is Silver and Level 4 is Gold. You need to have at least Gold on a champion to pick it.
Platinum is rank 3500+. Diamond is rank 4000+. Master is rank 4500+. You cannot lose the rank if you dip below the requirement.

Your ELO is still updated for casual when you play Ranked, but your Competetive points will also be taken into account.

No. Pip is fine as-is, he already has insane survivability and respectable damage, he doesn't need any more than that.

Don't fall for the "pip is not a healer" meme, he is, it's just not the primary focus of his kit
>>
>>161732765
He is a mediocre flanker at best, playing him like that is a waste of a slot, with the card that reduces cooldown on heal he can be a semi decent dealer and with his cc he can be great offensive support.

It's a projectile that is off centered to left side of your reticle. When you hook someone, do 180 spin to put them in worse spot for them to escape. When going to the point, hook their tank or healer to middle of your team to take them out quick.

Go behind enemy lines, never fight against 2 enemies(especially if you playing Evie, that's a sure death), only 1v1s, unless you're an Andy main, then 1v2 are possible, but you may still die.
Try to take them by surprise, because if they notice you before you start shooting anybody, you will need to flee at that moment.

Kinessa is the easiest targent ever.

Search after leftovers (low hp enemies) and finish them, then run away to safety to heal.

ATTACK THE HEALER FIRST, I can not stress this enough, don't be retarded and fight the tank alone, while a healer is nearby, because you will die, while the tank is getting healed.
Veteran is your bestfriend if you are the type to stay far away from your healer, being able to heal faster when you are out of combat is a good thing to have as a flank.

Abuse the fuck out of the movement abilities, especially the cards that heal you when you use them, because you will need to flee/get faster to a targent most of the time, so getting a little healed up is good.
>>
>>161744186
wouldnt kill to heal or heal on hit would be more useful on some characters?

especially evie, she can return like 300 hp for every blast she hits at rank 3 with heal on hit

also, does heal on hit count for other abilities such as drogoz's spitfire blast?

Kill to heal is good too, but most flanker mains use veteran because they go into the backline, making it harder for your allies to help you kill your targent. This more depends on your type of playstyle, because some use flanks more to surprise enemies on the point, helping their team to get rid of somebody quicker, or to go away from their team, staying around the enemy's spawn.
Example: Your team is fighting on the point, and you are hunting down a Ying/Pip, being pretty far away from your allies, so it's either one of you dies, or you flee, especially since there is no ally nearby.

Both are good cards, you just have to choose the one which fits your playstyle more.

And I'm not sure if it does, I may test it later.

PipPotion.png
254KB, 1229x1165px
Let's take a look at the theoretical highest HPS possible for each support, properly specced, not counting ults and items like rejuvenate and chronos.

Ying with full illusion uptime has a constant 700 HPS. Does not require team to be grouped and operate independently.
Mal'Damba has Gourd for 280HPS on everyone every 8s if they stay in it (4s duration) and a total of 1400 heal every 3s if if he doesn't miss, for a total of 1166.67 HPS.
Pip can throw 2x1200 health potions for the team every 8s provided the team is grouped, for a total of 1500 HPS.
Grover has a passive 80 HPS and 1000 for everyone every 10s, provided the team is grouped he heals for 900 HPS.
Grohk, with the tankiest characters with health increase cards (Fernando, Makoa, Ruckus, Buck), can drop a totem every 11s that lasts 8s for 340 HPS, plus 4% max HP. Total of 875.64 HPS. However, since it's bugged and heals for 4% per tick and not per second, it can go up to 2760.73 HPS.

So, in theory the best healing outputs are: Bugged Grohk >> Pip > Mal'Damba > Grover > Fixed Grohk > Ying.
The primary reason Ying out on top most of the time in practice is because her heals are on autopilot, cover a significant area and don't require people sticking together. Mal'Damba is up there, too, since his kit doesn't require close proximity and a good healing Mal can outheal a good Ying. Pip's healing is burst, timing dependant and grouping dependant, Grover's is low all around and Grohk would be absoulte garbage if not for the totem bug.
>>
>>161743458
It's about looking for opportunities. Don't just engage everything in sight, wait for them to be fighting your team before you go in.

Also this ult radius is retarded. It forced them to try to run away instead of shooting my team and we mopped them up as a result.

More tutorials because I have nothing to do:
>Ying
Stick to your team, try to stay grouped as much as you can, or at least stay with your frontliner on the point
Ying mains, don't put your illusions in open fire, put it behind your allies, unless you want to bodyblock the damage with your illusion, but it's not the best strategy. Shatter only when all of your allies are healed up or when your illusions are on low health.

Dimension link is your panic button, press it any time a flank/damage is out to kill you, or if you want, you can do a combo for damage by spawning 2 illusions with dimensional link and shattering them.
Use your ult when your frontliner is low on health and you are farway from him.
A good Ying ult can save lives.

Chronos is your bestfriend, use it to spawn illusions on a quicker rate.
Never shy away from dealing damage, help your allies, but don't go over the top with damage.
The second somebody starts to bully you, you dimension link away, don't fight them, unless they're on low health.

A good flank WILL hunt you, be aware of that.
A decent team WILL try to kill you first, be aware of that.

Is Monolith Totem card overrated? You have to put at LEAST 3 points into it to prevent Androxus from 2shotting it, (unless he's close enough to get full 620 damage both shots, in which case you need FOUR points just for another shot) and it has nothing to say vs neither Bomb King nor Drogoz nor Cassie.

And isn't totem AoE good? That way you can hide it better and still get heals. Totem duration is already high so that part is fine.

To be fair getting 12 champs to lvl 4 already takes more effort than the average normie shitter is willing to make.

We're talking about the people that instalock Kinessa and buy aggression about .03 femtoseconds into a match, and do it every single game.

I'd say just a purple frame shows some semblance of knowing what they're doing, but I know people in comp still have the guts to buy aggression, so what the hell do I know.

play more drogoz...?

hes very card dependant, more than other champions

if you dont use thrill of the hunt IV combined with propel IV, youre putting yourself at a massive disatvantage

also remember to put a point or two into masterful, its buff is enormous when you get to spam a point for 2000 damage in such a large area

also completely forget about salvo, that ability sucks and so do the cards that come with it

oh and one last thing, put at least a point in lung capacity if you feel that the fire spit travels too slowly

other than that you should just play the game and acquire more gamesense
dont stray too far from your team if the enemy has an androxus or cassie
you can be very aggressive when you need to, being able to take out most champions better than some flanks can
and fire spit is a very useful ability against an enemy drogoz who is at the same skill level

good hunting

Been using max propel, but why thrill of the hunt? It doesn't seem as useful as a maxed out masterful.

Is four points in masterful too many?

And what makes propel that good? It feels better when I'm using it, but I don't know why.
>>
>>161655945
I really don't understand this meme about melee characters being impossible to balance. There HAS to be some way of making them fit in.
>>
>>161801903
Fernando is basically a melee character, or do you mean like a melee DPS or something?
>>
>>161801709
thrill of the hunt immediately refills your booster, so you can keep rampaging around, being almost as good as flanks in taking out important targets in open areas like timber mill or that snake map
if you dont max it out, it refills 75%/50%/25% of your remaining cooldown, instead from your total cooldown, meaning its more useful at max level

i dont know that much about masterful, i only have 2 points in it and it seems enough
if i could deduct a point from thrill or propel, i would put it in masterful probably
its an awesome ability

propel is also awesome because the forward momentum it gives you allows you to skate around on the floor
after 1 hour of playing around with it, you'll understand how fun it is to skate around someone, kill them while theyre disoriented, and then boost towards your next target

>>161802825
maybe, if youre bored and theres no enemies around

its not a great ability, and if it was, drogoz would be literally overpowered

as i heard, wrecker doesnt apply to ability damage, only direct weapon damage, so even if its just one point in wrecker, normal rockets will already be better than what salvo can do
>>
>>161802825
No. It has better dps against shields if you don't have wrecker but the prep time, long cooldown, inability to use normal rockets if you need it and inaccuracy makes it not worth even considering.
>>
>>161801709
3 points in masterful is plenty enough, 2 at the minimum works. to break it down look at the amount of champions needed to be hit to auto-fully recharge the bubble:
Masterful II = 4 champions
Masterful III = 3 champions
Masterful IV = 2 champions

you should generally be aiming your bubbles towards crowds, so almost always you'll be hitting at least 3 champions, and even if you hit 2 that leaves only a 2 second cooldown with Masterful III so IV is just complete overkill and waste of a point.
also make sure to run lung capacity I or your bubbles will be shit, don't level it up any higher than 1 tho or you'll fuck up the speed real bad. personally I haven't found that great use of thrill of the hunt maxxed outside of casual, since against competent teams you won't be getting such easy frags left and right, but run whatever is comfortable so long as you have Lung Capacity I, Masterful II/III, and Propel IV you should be fine.

M1 Rockets
No Wrecker - 950
Wrecker Level 1 - 1663

Wrecker Level 2: Salvo + 2 M1 rockets
Wrecker Level 3: Salvo + 1 M1 rocket

>>161804179
huh, so it does buff the salvo damage

still, 10k shields arent common, and youll probably not have to do all the work by yourself, because chances are someone already chipped the shield a bit by the time your rockets get there
>>
>>161804365
yeah, shield health was purely for testing a breakpoint. honestly the fact that salvo with nothing does almost half of it anyway really goes to show why getting wrecker on Drogoz is pretty much a waste if you can just manage salvo cooldowns instead. wish more Drogoz would use salvo because it really does melt shields.

What's the point of Evie, Buck, Skye existing?

Evie was already somewhat fragile, but next patch her main trick is going to the garbage bin.

Skye is full of bugs and has shit damage, also if she even exists in the radius of 2 enemies, she will die.

Buck is slowly going to the garbage bin with the slow removed from his jump, he will become Evie/Skye tier in no time.

And Andrew McEdgelord is going to be the only useful flank, and also keep getting BUFFED, good job Jewbear.

the Evie and Buck nerfs are slap-on-the-wrist nerfs, if you were crutching on those things that hard to begin with then you've really got a case of git gud.
Buck and Evie are acceptable flanks, the issue is the fact that Andrew is way too strong to the point where they will always be worse options than him, there is not a single situation where Andrew is not better. Buck and Evie are acceptable secondary options if Andrew is taken, but even right now that's all they are: your options if Andrew is taken. Skye is just trash tho, please never pick her

Jets (on flight based builds)

>>
>>161806219
Once again, another message saying the same thing without giving any thought to it. They don't have to be "completely broken or absolutely useless", you just have to get creative with their kit. There's so many different variables at play in a game like paladins that its extremely unlikely (or impossible) for there to not be a way to create a reasonably balanced melee champion.
>>
>>161806991
the main problem is balancing their movement, damage, and health with the fact that everyone else in the game has guns. with pretty much every champion in the game having a movement skill what's to stop them from simply using it to get away from them? in particular if they're a low health champion it would be extremely easy for a good portion of the cast to punish that even with the melee champion's movement options unless their melee attacks are really THAT strong which in that case you're basically making TF2 spy without his gun. I think a reasonably balanced melee champion is possible, I'm simply saying the best way to go about it would be a tank and it would not be such a simple thing to do.

You should use 6k as your break point because Nando and Barik's shields are the ones that will block shit.From your chart alone, you should really buy wrecker lvl 1 at least because it will leave Nando's shield at a silver and Barik's gone. Remember your reload time and fire rate is painful as hell so being able to take it down in 1 salvo might mean the difference of them being grumpied or not.

>barik 100% movement speed when you pass his shield (including allies) card

this shit is amazing, you can't be killed with this, it's like a second escape skill and an initiation skill plus the lack of people using it surprise the enemy.

Okay here's the support ratings I have

1. Grohk. His totem with the 4% card is absolutely fucking broken, and by far the strongest heal in the game. Seriously, if your fernando is healed by this thing, it's like half a grover ult.

2. Ying. Her heals only work on one player at a time, but they are still incredibly strong, with the added bonus of being massively long range. Her issue is that even cauterize 2 is enough to mess her up pretty badly, and she's not as hard to kill as Grohk.

3. Grover. His only redeeming quality is his ult, and without ult he's VERY easy to hunt down, even with cauterize 2. His ult is good and all that, but with cauterize 3 it's still possible to hunt him down and kill him before he ults.

Special category:
Pip. His heals are pretty strong, sure, but he doesn't feel like a support. He's like a mixture of flank and support. His ult is great at turning fights and is especially great at killing tanky assholes on the point, but replace a real support with Pip, and you're gonna have a bad time.

How do reload card speeds work with burn cards? If you have 20% reload speed card and 60% reload speed from deft hands is it then 0.4*0.8=0.32 or 72% faster reload? Or does that not work?

What's wrong with agression? Doesn't it help a high damage hero?
>>
what classes are objectively shit and why?
>>
>>161817496
Not really. If you're playing vs a Healer, reducing the amount they heal by 90% will be far stronger for you than 15% more damage. ESPECIALLY vs Grohk and Ying.

If there are no healers, you could get Wrecker and deal 150% damage to shields for only 900 credits total. Or 225% for 1800 credits total. That's really great for pushing frontliners off the point.

If not, you could get Deft Hands and for only 1200 total you would have 40% faster reload speed, which surely would let you win several 1v1s by being able to fire more than your opponent continuously.

Aggression simply costs far too much and gives far too little.
>>
>>161818218
its not the classes that are objectively shit, but low elo scum
>>
>>161818218
Grover is Objectively shit because his heal is incredibly weak compared to other healers. His only redeeming quality is his ult, which is good, but being grover it takes a while to charge up. He has to be far away from enemies to deal damage, but close to allies to heal, and that's a stupid design. He's also not very tanky to begin with. Seriously, get close to him, pick up cauterize, and you'll eat him up no problem. That can't be said for someone like Ying, Grohk or Maldamba.

Skye is trash because while her DPS is good, any aware flanker will beat her in a 1v1, and she has got nothing to deal with shields. She's just weak as a flanker, and relies on the enemy flankers being shit. If they aren't, you're screwed.

Barik is also pretty terrible, and while he CAN be strong (who can't right?) he's just so unimpactful as a solo frontliner. Pretty shit amount of HP, not particularly strong shield, you'll often find him pissing himself a little away from the point because the enemy simply shot his crappy shield down with wrecker or worse, just walked through it and beat him up. His turrets are OK, but have a long cooldown and can be dealt with easily.

>>161813565

Mal is best healer in the game probably, can outheal anyone while still being impactful through out the whole game with his whole kit

Shitter confirmed, the snake dude is the best support on skilled hands, Grohk is worthless against a non retarded enemy.

Been playing him and I see what you mean. His rightclick is amazing at healing stupid flanks who run in and almost die straight up when they come back to point. But I feel like you're not giving Grohks totem enough credits. Put it behind a corner, bodyblock it a bit, and suddenly it heals for a literal shitton (over 1000 per second on certain tanks with the 4% card)

Offensively, Maldamba completely destroys Grohk though.

yeah my bad, meant to say why getting Decimate on Drogoz is a waste not wrecker. I agree, wrecker level 1 is acceptable if your one of the main shield breakers against 2+ shield champs and especially if you're working with a Bomb King. I'd also recommend running a build like this if it's against Nando/Barik too since it pretty much remedies the reload issue you brought up and can deal with shield chaining better. anything past level wrecker 1 is too insignificant of a difference to be worth the cost tho.
>>
>>161819430
>Grohk is worthless against a non retarded enemy.
if Grohk has proper protection with shields he can put in the work with his totem healing even against competent teams. just don't play him without shields against a good team or you're fucked.

this is a theory, but I believe you get Platinum at 3500 rating, I don't know if you ever lost with Ying but if you did in provisionals it might have put you on a shit path since I think the rating you start off is very close to that so it tries to be on your first win. then again I have like a 12-3 record with Drogoz and am not even close to top 100 when there's people there with like 9-3 so who knows, the ranking system as a whole is retarded

Apparently they look at match stats to decide if champions should be nerfed or buffed.
So high skill floor characters are left alone or buffed because shitters make them look bad on average even though they can singlehandedly carry games when played by somebody with good hand-eye coordination and map awareness. Meanwhile characters with lower skill floors (regardless of their skill ceilings) get nerfed because most people can at the very least do okay with them.
>>
>>161884183
honestly looking at numbers is probably the most retarded way to balance characters

i remember when valve was about to buff the reserve shooter (a stupid brainless weapon that gives free damage in exchange for nothing) in tf2, because they noticed that not enough people are using it
>>
How come Groverrs heal is on such a retarded cooldown? In 11 seconds grover can heal for what, 2k hp? Now take a look at Grohk with the 4% card, literally 1000 heal PER SECOND for nando and makoa.
>>
>>161883936
Ying is the easiest to get big healing numbers in the endgame because you can just set and forget your healbots while you float about lazering people.
Grohk has the potential to heal more than anybody but needs to be a bit more careful with totem placement because of its shorter range and long cooldowns plus that even with the health buff a few characters can still destroy it in one hit. He is also an decent damage dealer and is great for killing small, mobile squishies like Evie and Pip with his laser beam.
Maldamba is probably the best character for "healslutting" thanks to his aimed single target heal while also having an indestructible aoe heal that doubles as a soft area denial. Very difficult to get big numbers in both damage and healing but can be pretty effective in either.
Grover is a fairly ineffective healer and will really only outdo a pip as far as healing. His ult also becomes totally useless if somebody gets cauterise 3. On the other hand, his axes are easy to aim and hit hard, forcing enemies to come closer, into the range of your frontliner and the cripple effect on his RMB is very underrated.
So, in summary: It depends.
As for the totem, just make sure to destroy it whenever you see it and Grohk turns into a low tier damage dealer with no mobility. If you can't manage that he deserves to get 6 digit healing.
>>
>>161883936
they're all good in certain situations depending on the enemy team and your lineup, there's no perfect, go-to support in this game Grover is pretty shit though
>>
Do you think Grohk's 4% card will get fixed effectively murdering the entire hero and making him objectively inferior to MalDamba?
>>
How come Ruckus is so weak? I mean Repulsor Field is pretty great, but with a gigantic hitbox AND slowing himself when he attacks, it's not uncommon to see Ruckus blow up with 8k damage taken. He simply cant function as a solo tank, and the repulsor field has too little uptime
>>
So why would anyone pick Sha Lin? Even Kinessa does a better job at sniping, and Cassie does a better job at comboing. There really is no incentive for him to exist.
>>
>>161885615
I'd bet on it. Just give it a couple of months for it to become common knowledge.

They fixed the veteran item a couple of patches back for having the exact same effect that healing rain does right now and it went from a must pick in many situations to absolutely worthless.
>>
>>161886054
Boy I sure cant wait till Ying and Maldamba are the only viable healers!
>>
>>161885615
yep
they fixed veteran, theyll fix this too
>>161885904
he is exactly that though
a slow damage with a bonus tanking ability
because of that he is terrible as a solo tank
just like pip is terrible as a solo support
>>161886010
shen hua is a lot more mobile than kinessa, and get out of a lot tough situations with his kit
q allows him to kill anything that isnt a house
rmb allows him to push whatever is coming at him away
and his f lets him escape and reafy anotger shot if everything fails
this lets him play more aggresively than kinessa and unlike her he doesnt have to rely on a stupid mine gimmick to be good

also whats with this sudden influx of questions
is it just one guy asking about everything that comes out of his head?
>>
>>161886243
fucking mobile keyboards i swear
>>
>>161885904
>He simply cant function as a solo tank
Hi-rez has addressed it in videos and said they like him in that role as a secondary tank.
He absolutely shits damage at close range and tends to chew through makoa and fernando especially with a few points in wrecker so he does fulfill that role well but it does mean that the team ends up losing a character in some other role which may be more important.
>>
>>161886010
Turretmode.
That's literally it.
His escape is also marginally better than kinessa's it's still pretty shit though
>>
What is it that makes andro OP? His Nether Step is nice, but Reverdal is weird and unsynergetic, and defiance is almost useless. Is it just his normal attacks that are just too strong, fast and easy to hit?
>>
How will they fix cassie? Personally I think Incitement is far too strong, but also the fact she has no damage falloff makes her too strong at all ranges
>>
Why did they gut barik? I get that in pubs he was good vs garbage lineups, but he really is underwhelming at higher levels. Why did they nerf every single aspect of him before even testing the waters?
>>
>>161886764

>>161884183

hitboxes need to get fixed asap

drybear needs to get fucking hanged for this "casual audience" mentality that allows cassie to shoot literal logs

i had a kinessa click behind me as drogoz and she still managed to kill me, even though it was nowhere near my player model

also incitement needs an internal cooldown like masterful or grenadier so you cant just roll around like a rabid piggy
>>
a-are we getting a visit from a hi-rez employee or something?

whats with all of these well-formulated questions?
>>
>>161887965
We know they lurk
>>
Why did they buff Wrecker? A competent Drogoz can almost 3shot a fernando shield now. I get that frontliners were winning at low skill levels, but in siege, getting Wrecker 2 on a high dps champion is just too easy of a way to deal with shields.
>>
What makes skye such a bad champion? Her ult is good for certain combos like with evie, and her dps is high, but it's very difficult for her to deal consistent dps. And smokescreen as well as stealth both are bad offensively. What if smoke screen and hidden were merged to make room for a new ability?
>>
>>161886560
Mobility from netherstep with a fast, accurate and high damage LMB which becomes even higher damage if you take advantage of the perfect accuracy to score multiple headshots.
Reversal is good for stalling attackers in unwinnable situations while he waits for netherstep to go off cooldown (especially if you throw some points in Power of the Abyss) and his ult is essentially an even more powerful version of Viktor's.
Compared to other flankers, Evie can escape easier but needs to fire at almost point blank or find an immobile target if she wants to hit anything and though skye has more range on her attacks she isn't nearly as good at escaping. He can shit damage at a reasonable range and then easily escape if cornered.
>>
How will they fix aggression? I get it looks nice to noobs, but if it isnt pushing you over a damage threshold (which is unlikely) is practically does nothing, and if it does, a haven I usually fixes that. How could they rework it into something situationally useful damage wise?
>>
How can we make Grover more viable? His heal is strong, but it's such a long cooldown, and against good targets, it's not enough to keep himself or his allies alive. And while his ult is good, a smart flanker will simply get catuerize 3 and focus him down. He also has to be far away to deal damage, but close to heal.
>>
What do you think about the card costs? Are certain cards giving too much value for too little and vice versa? Does the resetting of cards make certain champions OP in payload?
>>
>>161888748
I'd say she's a bad champion mostly because like Kinessa, a lot of Skye players aren't very good. This is compounded with the fact that it only takes one competent and determined player (any flanker vs. Kinessa and any player willing to invest in illuminate vs. Skye) to totally ruin their day.
A few threads ago somebody suggested giving her a wallrun so she has some more mobility. I'm not sure if that would fix her though.
>>
>>161888879
A straight damage buff is stupid. The best way to fix it is to remove it entirely or change it significantly.
Making it so that it only increases damage when attacking from behind could be a good niche card for flankers but I'm not sure it would gel with what the other red cards seem to be trying to do.
>>
What do you think of the maps? Are there enough places for flanks to use? Are the points too difficult or easy to contest due to cover and hiding spots near the objectives? Are there certain champions that are too strong on some maps, and for what reason?
>>
How will we fix Kinessa? She does good DPS, but she just can't handle flankers very well. Mines help a bit, but being completely scoped it lets the flanker gets an upper hand to begin with, and the fights over. Her escape is predictable and not quick enough as well. What could be changed to make her more viable competetively without making her overpowered in beginner games?
>>
What do you guys think about Fernando? Right now, he feels a bit too durable, and can just "Run down" many supports and some damage dealers. His shield is the strongest in the game, and his fireball deals pretty good damage to crowds. What could tone him down a bit while maintaining his durability and point contesting powers while making him a bit harder to play as an overly durable flanker?
>>
too many questions
>>
Is Viktor in a good spot right now? After the range nerf he can't "snipe" anymore, but he can still deal consistent damage. But his ultimate feels very underwhelming and useless. What could the ultimate be replaced with, what changes could he get? Or is he fine?
>>
>>161889815
If I was going to nerf one part of his kit it would be giving fireball dynamic drop off forcing him to be up close to deal any damage at all.
But honestly, besides that one ability he already has no range and is easily taken out by any competent damage character as long as they can manage to stay out of reach of his charge and flamer and dodge his fireballs which on multileveled maps is not very hard to achieve.
>>
>>161889983
His ult is pretty good. Just don't mash the left mouse button, take your time with it to control the area for longer.
>>
>>161888879
Make it deal bonus damage that ignores resistance effects. This way it would actually be a counter to haven/blast shields as they say it is, but those cards wouldn't become useless or mandatory since they'd still reduce total damage taken.

>>161889190
Grover's fine for the niche he fills, being a healer in a team that stacks, with the ability to take out enemy snipers while also providing decent crowd control. Maybe give blossom the same buff pip's healing got so he feels more useful in regular play.

>>161889258
Assuming you're talking about burn cards here, they're all decently balanced for their cost except for aggression. As for payload resetting, nobody cares about payload.

>>161889687
Maps are generally fine. Bomb King is absurdly strong in any map where the objective is near the edge because of jolt, but that's a problem with jolt and not the maps.
Timber Mill right now is the only map right now that actually feels different to play than the others, because it's the only map where snipers can sit relatively safe from anything that isn't an androxus or evie. If you see a kinessa on the enemy team and no flanks on yours, you're in for a bad day.

>>161889748
Don't touch her. At all. She's fine for the role she fills. A good kinessa on a good team can and will shut down the enemy team harder than any other champion. A decent kinessa on timber mill will likely be very successful as long as there's no androxus or evie on the enemy team. It's fine to have niche champions that aren't too good in most situations but really shine in specific circumstances.

>>161889815
The incoming nerfs are already going to reduce his chase potential by quite a bit. Shield strength is irrelevant when wrecker exists. Against a competent team, you'll be lucky if your shield holds for two seconds. It's mostly used to get some healing from the card when you're low on health.
There are very few champions that can't get away from him by just popping their movement ability.

>>
Jolt is a non-issue

Items in paylOad are nearly useless. Healers are stronger because you will never have time for caut 3

Andro is op because he has good ultimate like Skye but doesn't suck like Skye(also head shots but the buck is stronger imo, only his ultimate is worse)

The reason everyone play speed Nando is because you buff wrecker so sheild build and safetravel are tossed in favor for fireball/ move speed. Speed Nando is not op, Nando is, and not because he is fast or does dmg, because he is the tankiest. If you want to play tank why wouldn't you want to play tankiest? Only barik can come close and he gets hard countered by a brain and a burn card

Grover's escape is literally widowmakers which only encourages overtards to play him as sniper

Cassie needs nerf to range or accuracy at range. The reason kinessa doesn't get picked all that often is because Cassie can play the same spots. She needs to be midrange

Barik is also still op in noob games. It all boils down to he wins with turrets and loses without them and noobs will not counter them

They also don't buff/nerf based solely on stats. If they did then Evie would have got buffed, not nerfd, since her stats are shit
>>
>>161889748

She just need quality on life changes. The charge shot mechanic I am not a fan of and would rather have it do the same dmg all the time. Also I think the wall runner idea would work better on kin rather than skyes

I'm so tired of having 3 (three) flanks and 1 (one) damage, while I'm playing 'Nando.
I'm so tired of having to actually play 3 roles (damage, frontliner and flanker) at the same time when I'm playing 'Nando.

I've seen Kinessas perform very well on frozen guard, fish market and serpent beach too.
It's just that in those cases they have been very good players who relocate constantly and didn't have a determined and half decent flanker constantly chasing them down before they get a few shots off.
Stealth characters and sniper characters are both nearly impossible to balance well and I'd prefer Kinessa and Skye stayed on the slightly underpowered side of things rather than getting a buff and and risk becoming stupidly overpowered.
>>
>>161885615
Protip : he already is.
>>
>>161894018
Personally, I disagree. While Maldamba can heal for a total of 460 health per second, and has the large added benefit of healing up wounded flanks and damage dealers who are far away from the point from a distance, I feel that Grohk, with a well placed Totem and the bugged 4% card can easily outheal him by a large margin. Seriously, do you want to know how much it heals makoa and fernando per second? 1220, at least with 5500 HP. It's insane, and I feel that this is the only reason why he's even moderately strong right now. The INSTANT they nerf that card, he will become ultratrash.

I feel like a way to balance him even better right now would be to either fix the bug, but then buff the card to 2/4/6/8% of max HP instead, OR fix the card entirely, but increasing the totem heal to something like 500-600 instead. But that's just my opinion.

Even WITH insane heals he still has pretty bad winrate. Comes to show... well that he's just not that good. The only thing is, if there's a good frontliner with you, he'll bodyblock and protect the totem, because it makes him invulnerable until the enemy has at LEAST cauterize 3.
>>
>>161894018
>>161894338
I meant 560 per second, but you get the idea. If they nerf the card, they HAVE to buff the totem drastically, OR buff the totem moderately and the card a bit to make up for it.
>>
>>161894338

Groups shadow walk is pretty good for ducking ultimate. Maybe if they let shadow walk affect nearby allies as well they could fix the bug but still give him another way to sustain on point. Plus it would be good counter the 3-3 games that get cheesed by Skye ulti

Fixing the bug, no matter what you do with shadow walk will never fix Grohk. The bug IS Grohk. Without the bug, Grohk is NOTHING. Grohk NEEDS the bug to survive.

Please, HiRez, if you fix it, COMPENSATE. My personal suggestion is increase totem heal to 500 or something, fix the bug, and then increase the card to 2/4/6/8. That way, he'd heal for about 940 on Fernando and Makoa, while still healing lower health pool champions well. It would also make him less reliant on the card.
>>
>>161893739
nah fuck off, having a hero this underpowered isn't good for anyone, unless you hate them for some reason and want them soft banned from the game, just give her an way to survive close encounters, like a better carbine mode or more reliable escape and rework the way Skye works.
>>
>>161894820
>unless you hate them for some reason and want them soft banned from the game
Darn, you caught me. My honest opinion is that both sniper and stealth characters are cancer and should just be removed. Sha lin triggers me so much I have a small fit any time somebody on my team picks him.
Honestly though, with the incoming speed boost to Kinessas teleport I'd say she'll be in a reasonably good place.
Getting rid of the bright red outline every time you shoot a Skye or alternatively removing illuminate from the card list would be enough to make her viable.
Sha lin is totally beyond hope though and should just get a complete rework, the only good thing about him is that turretmode.

What you say? Game had no 250 k player on the line last month, no. It had 60k top. But not worry, it not dying

You know, maybe I should have worked out after all considering I never improve at androxus and playing him is a waste of time

I come from the beta, when pressing r was 5 kills

Was she nerfed too much?

>>161911739
bugs like that one were the game crashes and when you rejoin the game your bot already got elim

and the worse one an exploit were the enemy slow your connection/fps to a crawl

M'Damba's BTFO. I just love to see the enemy run from point a second before they cap and before my team fucks them up.
>least
Grohk's. Weak heal + pathetic damage.
>>
>>161913207
Grohs heal is batshit insane, but that's just because of a bug that makes the Healing Rain card four times stronger than it's supposed to be.

How was the other team? If they were shitters this means nothing.

We lost first round because we didn't have our shit together then and we had 2 randoms, so I guess they are at least decent.
