Do people not know they can shoot through Fernando's shield? I try to keep it in front of my allies while we're being shot at, and they decide they need to run through it immediately. Ying with 10 HP left, don't run in front of it while it's blocking their shots!

>>164055783

>>164056282
that's the normal paladins expirience

>>164055985
Pretty much. When the other team has the point, they're wondering why I can't 1v5 to clear it. When we have the point, they act like my shield is made of rice paper. At least as Barik I have sentries to be my friends.

>played 26 hours
>only play skye

Anyone else only play one hero?

>>164057190
>the average Paladins player

You could at least pick a flanker that's not countered by a single item.

>>164057190
Let me try to explain: started playing paladins, number of times were rekt by skye ult, wow skye rocks, lets autopick it!
in my opinion skye is mostly useless, when players starting to distinguish incoming skye ult

>>164057708
>>164057852
I do ok, 60% win and 2.3 KD.

I only played a few times when she had her poison ult.

The more I play after the recent patch the less I want to play her. There as no reason to nerf the health, it just handicaps more more when going against people. Obviously other stuff e.g sound effects but I guess I enjoy playing for that challenge.

>>164057708
What do you mean item btw? Illuminate? No one ever buys that.

>>164058904
Lots of people buy aggression too.

Just because people don't use the item doesn't mean one guy using it can't completely shut down a Skye. Especially if he's another flanker and is going to be using the same routes as her.

Skye is alright at pubstomping, but she has huge weaknesses that are easy to exploit.

>>164058767
>26 hours
>60% win
I guess most in casual mode? Yes sometimes skye is good even in competitive but not in every map.

>>164059557
Yeah I'm beginning to see that the higher I get. I've lost dmg overall and feel a lot weaker but I still get clutches and potg that keeps me interested.

>>164059560
Of course, don't you need a few levelled champs? I agree on the maps, some maps I just feel useless and others vital. I dont think I would play comp with her, just too weak after the patch.

I dont think Hi-Rez really know what they are doing with her.

>>164060419
>Of course, don't you need a few levelled champs?
Yeah, you need 12 at level 4.

>>164060532
Thats fair enough. A bit daunting when you only have Skye at 13 lol.

>>164060419
>I agree on the maps, some maps I just feel useless and others vital.

I don't even bother trying to play flank on some maps.

>>164061119
Yeah its bad, and it feels like the maps aren't picked fairly, always heavy on some.

>>164061447
Wish we got a thumbnail/info of the map on the champ select screen. I can never remember the names, especially when I queue for both gamemodes.

>>164061636

General rule of thumb is, if it's Ice Mines, you're fucked. Anything else, you're more or less alright.

>>164064462
who were you?

>>164064748
Makoa

>>164064462
They really should add a way to disable text chat and automatically ignore whispers from people not on your friend list.

>>164064807
why did you not have the highest objective time?

>>164064912
Because Enemy Makoa who won the game had like 12 seconds above me. It was one of those "Everyone but you is playing Damage/Flanker, so you're the only one on the point" games.

>>164064881
>automatically ignore whispers from people not on your friend list
It really doesn't do this already? I can't see a time when it would be helpful.

>>164065667
even if the enemy team had more objective time you still had the most of your team. not the second most. Always devide by team.

I literally just downloaded the game, got the code for the console alpha / beta / whatever.
Coming from the decaying and passing away Smite, what can I expect? I was just scrolling through the God-- Champions, and Ying and Mal'Damba were really cool.

>>164066341
Expect to feel like a god until level 5.

>>164066341
How are they fucking up Smite now?

>>164066341

Mal'Damba is fun as fuck on top of being the best healer in the game.

Ying is fun, but pretty weak right now.

>>164067301
AFAIK Smite is fine, just the playerbase isn't growing.

When are they going to remove Skye "I'm going to press E and get unavoidable POTG" Halfdose from the game?

>>164065750
Some people think they're being really clever by shittalking the enemy team through whispers.

>>164067686
It's already nerfed pretty hard.

>>164067694
>shittalking the enemy team through whispers
>sitting around doing nothing for your team to bm someone who probably doesn't even speak your language

Why am I not surprised?

>>164066341

What is max lvl? I heard 55, but recently got 56.

>>164070748
there is no max level, but the max mastery is 25

I'm already diamond on Mal'Damba and I still have two provisional matches to play on him.

Is that good, or simply average?

I never played the Alpha but that old Siege where the cart is a cannon that moves itself looks so much better than your typical push the payload. Because you never fail to push the cart, every successful cap of the point will get you at least a little closer to knocking down the doors so every game was won on the cart push and defenders don't get shit.

At least that's what it looks like to me. Am I wrong?

>>164077609
you're right. and it was so much more fun.

is there a free champion rotation in this game, or do you have to hope for special events if you don't want to buy them?

>>164078210
Nope, but there's weekends where every champ is free every once in a while.
Not that it matters much since you can test any champ you want in the shooting range as well as gold being incredibly easy to earn and plentiful.

>>164077609
The defending team could possibly prevent their gates from taking damage because the siege engine could be damaged while it was making its way to the base so they could end the push before it got there, and champions with shields could put their shields down to block the siege engine and players to keep their gates safe too. You are right when you say every game had to be won on a push though, you had to destroy the vault to win there was nothing like "you captured the objective so your team gets a point", the vault was everything.

Playing as Bomb King after having Mastery 14 Nando and M'koa gives me a different feeling than playing FLs.

You don't get credit as support coz you don't heal.
You don't get credit as FL because you have no shields, cannot mitigate damage and will melt if you stay too long at cap.
You don't get much credit as flank because you aren't a flanker.
You don't get much credit as damage because you will not deal that much damage as Ivan or Tyra Banks.

And yet without that juicy Top Play or Top of the Class, seeing that Victory feels much much sweeter. Also, you get to be that fucking asshole that shakes down every single champion in matches.

>>164081038
Bomb King is a fucking baller.

I didn't hear about Paladins until the Steam release.

>>164083197
I think the only thing I like more about the game right now is being able to craft the card you want and build the deck you want. I preferred the gameplay, game mode, maps, and actual cards that Paladins used to have.

How did the cards they gave you work? I actually liked the idea, but I heard a lot of RNG complaints.

just realized you can jump while sniping

>>164087537
you would level up over the course of the game and could choose 1 of 3 random cards each time. It wasn't perfect but better than now.

The cards in the bottom right corner of this picture gave you and allies near the totem 30% more damage, and 50% damage reduction that would also remove debuffs. Think I only took this picture because the Skye just went AFK in the middle of a match.

>>164087537
The system when that picture was taken was all RNG if I remember correctly. After the complaints they changed it so you could build a deck before a match that had:

3 Specialty cards and you would pick 1 at level 1
3 Common cards and you would pick 1 at level 2
3 Rare cards and you would pick 1 at level 3
3 Epic cards and you would pick 1 at level 4
3 Legendary cards and you would pick 1 at level 5

At least I think that's what they changed it to, it might've been slightly different

>>164088232
The non-RNG system sounds like fun. The RNG version sounds like it'd be awful 90% of the time and your team would get pissed if you got bad draws.

Bomb King somehow requires a different gamestyle from other dps champions. It's not designed for scoring amazing headshots or insane kills, its purpose is harassment and area denial.

>>164096468
also a huge amount of skill with his actual main weapon when you arent spamming f and q

Who here playing paladins cause shit computer can't run overwatch?

>>164096468
If they make a fifth class called Utility, both Bomb King and Pip can belong there, especially Pip with his shield-ignoring ultimate.

>>164105269
Believe it or not, I enjoyed the gameplay.

The level of meaningful character customization (i.e. not skins but items and traits to affect how the charcter played) is as good if not better than paladins. It also has a higher TTK which means that teamwork and strategy are much more important and scoring multikills are more noteworthy and worthy of praise rather than something occurring multiple times every game. Also, the gamemodes were interesting and varied enough to keep me going and the the pve story mode was good for a few runs if I was having a bad day in pvp.

Sure, it looks pretty bad and much of the writing/voicework was terrible but it was well done where it matters imo. I dunno, maybe I'm just stupid.

>>164106653
Competitive or quickplay?
People that choose the character they want to play with without considering the choices of their teammates are pretty stupid btw. As a support main I don't really care, since few people choose support, but most dps players are Overwatch-tier bad.

>>164107318

If it's any consolation, it was the first time most of your teammates had played those characters against real opponents (or possibly at all) and they are all ranked significantly lower than you.

Looking at the opposing team comp in hindsight, you probably would've been better off as Buck to show the other two flankers how to play and left the Grohk to solocap.

First rule. Don't fucking buy aggression. It's literally worthless since almost everybody buys haven early. You're always going to be better off with cauterize or deft hands. Sometimes wrecker, but tank busting isn't your primary role.

Second rule. You're map dependent. Andro is weak as fuck on certain maps because the flank routes make him an easy target. Don't be one of those faggots that only plays Androx for his ult because you're chasing the stupid ass POTG.

Third Rule. Using Reversal well is critical to winning most duels with him. This is something that takes A LOT of practice to really master. Mostly because if you learn the other champs well, you'll be better able to predict when your Reversal can absorb the most damage from their individual abilities. The blast that does damage in return will one-shot some characters if you learn this technique.

After that, it's down to how well you can aim, and whether or not the enemy knows how to shut you down.

Good luck.

She's a great damage champ if you're good about hitting fuckers in midair. She's a natural counter to Drogoz, and doesn't even have to do anything other than aim well.

>>164130343
I always give Skye's a fair shake just because some of them are actually pretty good at doing flanker things like picking off the healer and snipers and such.

It's when some faggot instalocks Le Edgy Revolver man and then starts spitting out commands that makes me dodge without issue.

>>164132161
How is it possible that almost any match is so unbalanced? I mean, what are the odds that abolsutely shit players are in a same team whereas all the players in the other team are good? These odds should be much lower than, say, good and bad players being mixed together. Still, I find competitive matches generally more balanced than quickplay. I've been exclsuively playing comp matches for some days, but there are some Downs there as well. Especially playing as a tank in comp can be nice or pure hell depending on your teammates.

>>164132258
Srry scrub, but it was comp. Both teams having 2 tanks should've clued you into as much.

speaking of chests, is it worth saving them all up until i get a boost?

Tired of long queue times when trying to play comp?

Alt-tabbing to read something while you wait too difficult?

Well, just go into the loadout screen after you queue. Try to adjust the loadout of one of your favorite champs. The system will join you right when you try to save that loadout!

I guarantee it.

>>164160104
How: Hold nade button for a second, then release.

When: When you need that explosion to pop at just right the time. Bonus points if it's hitting more than one enemy at a time.

200 ping is still better than playing with shitters who don't even speak English.

Despite Tyra & Shalin being terrible, I still have hope for new champions. Would really like to see upcoming champs follow a path akin to Damba where most of their abilities have lower CD so that it always feels like you're active & engaged.

>>164179585
I'm just happy they're not horribly OP. They're not amazing, but when Tyra was announced I expected tanks to be obsolete.

>>164179585
Tyra is not terrible but she needs a little buff to her damage and healing grenade card tho. Torvald sounds really fun tho.

>>164180326
I should clarify that im not talking about how viable they are in the meta, but rather about the quality of their design overall. She might've been fine later on down the line but at this point in the games life, did we really need another damage AR user? Not really.

>>164181117
They're annoyingly half original. If Sha Lin had a different right click to make him less like Cassie and Tyra's AR did something to be different, they'd be way better. It's just the obvious ways they're not totally original.

Shalin is super boring because the idea behind him was that he used a bow, Tyra was a half step in the right direction with her fire bomb being a big focus and Torvald just sounds great from what's been leaked if it's true. Because the focus isn't on his gun or whatever weapon, it's on his abilities.

Kinessa and Andro are my two "most challenging", but I just suck at them and can't practice without my team throwing a fit. I almost want to make a smurf account just to play them without ruining my main.

>>164233059
This is a problem with first-past-the-post voting. Most people have average tastes, but everyone else is spread thin among different games, and no one is coordinating to attempt to game the system.

>>164231992
I agree

If they can't do that, at least remove the unjukeable hitscan niggers like victor and tyra. Hitscans like andro and kinessa are jukeable because there's plenty of time in between their shots, so with movement and abusing cover, you can time it to where their shots are more likely to miss you. However, with viktor and tyra, you are basically taking damage for the whole duration that they see you for, which is horseshit and not fun.

It depends on your team. If the enemy has two good snipers that map can be hell for me.

This game would probably be a lot cooler if you could vote for the map during the champion select screen..

>>164244729
I fucking hate it because it seems that breaking the base is the most difficult on that map. It also has very little verticality but at the same time too much verticality. The map partitions are set up in a way that only heroes like buck, evie, andro and bombking can comfortably navigate it, where everybody else has to walk around the fuckhuge walls. Lumber mills also has this problem to an extent, but I don't find it nearly as frustrating playing on Lumber mills without a vertical champion as I do on Jaguar Falls.

>tfw your ping shoots up to 1000 and you still don't get kicked out so you end up dragging the whole team down with you

>>164246945

scoring is definitely most difficult on ice mines because it's so damn long

which ever team has better ultis will win the 3-3

>tfw your ping stays at 108 but for some reason you get booted back the login screen

Anyone else having a problem where the skins are not saving when you exit the game?
Everytime I log in I have to change the emotes, skins and voices of all characters because everything has been set to default

>>164254960
I find that it only really does that with weapon skins, for me. Body skins remain equipped, as do voice banks, taunts, and MVP poses.

>>164254960
For me it's weapons and emotes that get unequipped. Everything else stays.

>>164254960
I have to reset weapons, emotes, voice packs and some specific skins like TF2 Barik.

>>164255252
I dislike that you can't mix and match the TF2 outfit with other things. Is it so damn wrong I just want to use the gun and helmet?

>>164255252
>voice packs
Are you really sure? My voice packs don't unequip.

>>164255452
Yeah, my Plushie Makoa and regular Ruckus got unequipped.
