You're reading far too much into this. Wanting a char that's not just an attractive girl with a weapon doesn't mean that sexy = bad.
What separates the girls from the "uniquely designed" group is that they're all just girls with weapons. They have no unique characteristics outside of two of them being elves.

I thought new girl was suppose to be a cat.

Your argument is really fucking bad because you keep predicating it on this idea that all of the female characters looks exactly the same, and the only thing differentiating them is their weapons. This isn't even remotely true, and you know that. Say you want female monsters/non-human characters, fine, but don't act like Ying and Kinessa look exactly the same aside from their weapons. I agree that the cast needs less human females, but that doesn't mean Tyra and Skye look the same.

So I just played 3 games as ying. I have multiplayer anxiety and decided that I will play 3 games a day against real people.
The first 2 where a steamroll and the third they kicked our asses and I did the least healing and damage compared to their grover and pip.

But I don't remember the names of my teammates and I hope they don't remember mine as worst ying ever. Also I play with 20-30 fps so I can blame that.

I'm on the path to defeat multiplayer anxiety and enjoy paladins again!

>>167359813
The hair color change will cost 200 good goym crystals.

>>167358070

holy fucking shit anon
the issue isn't that they can be bought for crystals right now
right now they're full of pretty much nothing but gold so there's no problem
the issue is that they will STILL be able to be bought for crystals in the next patch
AND they will grant the player dust for opening duplicates
that dust is then used for crafting cards and upgrading them
yes upgrading, this has been discussed as an upcoming feature
so
use your fucking brain for two seconds
if you spend real money on crystals
the buy radiant chests and get dust from them
you get dust for real money
you then use that dust to craft or upgrade cards in order to give you a leg up against other players
if a player does not spend money, they can obviously still buy radiant chests
and yes, they can obviously still craft cards
but they have to earn gold and level ups by playing the game in order to get those radiant chests

now, using your brain just one more time, can you try to guess which player gets WAY more dust and thus WAY more advantage?
A. the free player who gets maybe a few radiant chests per week if they play super often, and will earn dust over time
OR
B. the guy who just dropped $100 on crystals for radiant chests, and got a large lump sum of dust from opening all of them

if you can't figure it out, the answer is B
so once again
if you pay real money for crystals, and then use them to buy radiant chests, you gain a real, quantifiable advantage over the players who are not spending real money on crystals
that's the definition of paying for advantage
and if you say "oh but you get crystals for free for daily logins" so help me god
that's not a part of the argument because somebody spending money on crystals can ALSO get those free crystals for logging in

Remove frogposters.

I'm probably judging Maeve too early, but... I thought at first that she's going to be stupidly broken like Evie with her constant mobility, but it seems that it's not going to be a case, Maeve has longer cooldowns on her abilities. Unless her cards lower them to the Wormhole or Cassie's dodge roll bullshit levels, we should be good, right? Right?

Being able to knock people off their horses is stupid as fuck. Full team wipe? Enemies know how to zone? Looks like you lost that point by default LOL xD

>>167361093
She has an ability that resets her cooldown every 20 sec, do you think you can even catch her?

>they can all be boiled down to attractive girl with weapon

Well yeah, no fucking duh anon. Literally any character can be boiled down to a boring concept if you're actively working to boil it down to a boring concept. Half the male cast is basically just masculine guys with weapons. I mean Viktor and Buck are essentially the same, right? Only thing interesting about them is their weapons.

Also, the cast is skewed towards male characters so of course there's gonna be more male designs. This is because the game is an FPS, and is clearly marketed towards a male playerbase. Marketing being what it is, the overwhelming majority of male gamers don't want weird monstergirls in their game, they want soft, cute girls with round, bouncy tits. Minority players like you don't even count for pickles when Hi-Rez designs a character; the majority first-person shooter playerbase does, and those players want radical dudes and sexy chicks.

And let's face it, even if they surprised everyone and added something like, say, a female orc, you'd still be the first to bitch because they're "just a blue human with some tusks."

>Fixed an issue where Cauterize was stacking with other healing reduction mechanics and different ranks of itself. Healing reduction will now take the strongest present value.

So now there's literally no reason to build caut on Nando or Skye?

>>167362294
Yes

>>167362294
Constant aoe caut is still good on Nando if your team can't provide that and there's literally no reason to play Skye.

>>167361957
I think there might be no point in picking Buck ever again too, Evie and Maeve are too good. Andro might lose some popularity too, considering his nerfs and how buggy is reversal.

Buck might not have enough damage to kill her before she runs away. Slowing net might help though.

I wish the champions interacted more. I know the game has some of this stuff, but I still think it's not enough when compared to other hero-based games, especially MOBAs. I want more champion shit-talking after kills, like Barik's "You can never trust a man with no beard!" when he kills Fernando. I want dialogue for interacting with characters on your team, like having unique phrases sometimes for getting healed by Ying when you're Torvald. Just little things that would really help with immersion.

Only after they've actually balanced this complete pile of shit, though.

Plus, incentivizing PVE play is kind of what they want to do once they get the ball rolling on that and make it a more fleshed out game mode.

>>167363562
Huh.
Didn't know that. I'd been taking cauterize to limit Buck/Ruckus self-healing, so I suppose I've been mistaken to do so up to this point.

>>167363174

Well, that's explains why this card was so shitty.

>>167364146
Drybear said to save them on the patch preview stream. However, this could mean only one of two things:
1) There's actually some really cool new stuff in the OB43/Season 1 Radiant Chests that might be worth waiting for, or
2) The new Radiant Chest has only cards and recolor skins, and now you have to spend crystals if you want poses and emotes.
Which do you think is more likely?

>>167364519
Third guy I replied to recommended it.
I'm completely clueless as of now with Bomb Kong though, so I'm open to better suggestions.

A couple people on the leaderboards are also using it so there's that.

>Improved the slide off physics for rooftops where players are not intended to linger, which will now push you more aggressively.

Haha, good. Fuck Kinessa players and their bug-abusing bullshit.

>>167364267
The card that reduces reload for every sticky detonated is pretty good, I think it's called Royal Decree or something. Two points in this one and you are reloading at the speed of light.

Anyone feel like the rounds in this game are way too short?

I think a lot of people (me included) feel that. Sometimes if your team loses a single fight it can cost you the entire point since it gets capped so fast. I see no good reason why its such a quick endeavor since trying to cap the point is really fun

Well there goes my plan for this weekend

why does this game have sprays
they're such utter dogshit

>>167367727
>countered by difficulty of use
Well Hi-Rez still claims the exact same thing about Androxus, and we all know that's a damn lie
Maeve is going to be annoying as fuck to deal with this patch and likely for the next several patches as well
I can't say I'm not interested in her because her kit is fucking ridiculous
But that's to be expected
At least Torvald's hilariously strong ulti is mitigated by him being a slow, weak piece of shit otherwise
Maeve's hilariously strong ulti is just attached to an equally hilariously strong set of abilities
I just don't get it

>>167368190
So damba players can't complain about him not getting anything :)

>>167368305
So there's more filler for chest :)

The better spray question is why they don't just make all the card art sprays and make them a goldsink?

>>167367727

I don't think it's that easy to hit with the dash when the enemy is moving. Also, it seems hard to even land the knives, it's not hitscan.

Also the huge mobility is great but you can't do any damage while using F like Pip.

>>167368190
Mal'damba players: When is Damba gonna get some skins, HR?
Hi-Rez: We gave him some sprays, stop being so entitled.
Mal'damba players: We weren't--
>HR proceeds to give even more skins/items to Vik, Pip, and Skye

>>167368630
If there are any sprays that can be bought with gold hi-rez can't justify putting sprays into crystal only chest mate

OB42 is old news now, but I can't play OB43 yet. Just makes me feel like not playing ;_;

I love how they hyped up this patch so much in the preview & even said that its most likely today, then proceed to disappoint everyone by delaying it till Monday. IIRC this isn't even the 1st time this has happened. Why are game devs so shit at making deadlines

>>167367205
Alyssa is a cute. CUTE!

>>167368924
Maybe they're still working to get it up today, but just say Monday in case they don't get it up and to also make people think highly of them for getting it up early!

>>167368924

Maeve was even bugged during the preview. It won't be out today.

>>167368663
skye and pip getting even MORE shit in the valentine chest is so fucking dumb
pip has gotten a new skin of some sort almost every single goddamn time somebody else has
new chest? pip skin
new character? pip skin
jsut felt like it? pip skin
skye is getting her THIRD unique non-recolor skin
but in the very same patch she's also being rendered completely useless by maeve
meanwhile, andro's newest recolors are actually for real locked behind the wall of OWNING A FUCKING PS4 OR XBONE
and literally all of his skins besides out-of-character holiday jokes are recolors
I mean what the fuck hi-rez
at least try to act like you're not doing everything you can to squeeze blood from an already very dry stone

>>167369425
At least Andro has something, even if it is shitty holiday crap. My boy Drogoz has fuckin nothing, aside from Tyrant, which is just a complete recolor instead of just an armor recolor

>tfw you play against a Drogoz and type "ez" in chat and he private messages you in the next match with greentext

As Tyra and to a less extent Torvald have shown, mobility is everything in this game, a character with almost infinite mobility is bound to be OP as fuck.

>>167370586
Until she gets netted, runs into Kinessa's mines, or pip's slowing goo.

What's resilience?

>>167369794
yeahhhh drogoz has it pretty fucking rough right now for skins
same as damba and sha
like maybe sha gets a pass because he's newish
so I guess torvald and tyra also can wait for skins for a bit
but drogoz is getting the short end of the shit stick and there's like no reason for it other than hi-rez employing an an art team who don't want to make anything other than goofy shit for pip and vik

The seem to be in a state of dismay

Oh yeah I bet those slows will really help.

>>167371438
Not to mention her Reset cleanses CC and makes her immune to them for 1 sec

>>167371256
She has two mobility skills, both of which have more range than Evie's skills, and a third skill that instantly resets her cooldowns.
She has the most horizontal mobility in the game, bar none.

>>167371427

Wait. LMB damage was 900 if both daggers hit, right?

>>167371607
Oh right sorry I forgot to account for that, so double that.

Her pounce can go up and she has a double jump at all times, taking in consideration the limited heigth level of current maps, she's got the most mobility period.

>>167371546
>her Reset cleanses CC and makes her immune to them for 1 sec
We haven't plenty to be annoyed by without you adding your stupid retard lies to the pile.

They already nerfed the def cards, resilience is a no brainer for her, good luck making her stop.

>mfw Maeve can probably get to the point faster by herself than if she was on a mount

>>167361042
I think a good deck will be uh

On Edge 4
Predation 4
Streetrunner 2
And two cards that that complement your playstyle

>>167372183
In places like Stone Keep, yeah. She can dash over the big ass bush that splits each half of the map to completely flank without running the risk of someone seeing her. From spawn.

>>167372370
On edge seems obligatory to me, because reducing the cooldown of Prowl reduces all cooldowns indirectly.

>Maeve can active her boost
>run off a medium height
>float if she needs to
>then double jump
>then dash vertically
>then, if she needs to, she can hit her Q
>and then dash vertically AGAIN
there's literally no height in the game she can't reach
plus the best sniping spots are now all modified to aggressively push players off
so there's not one single solitary spot you can safely play from against her
I guess they really do want Kinessa players to quit

>>167371546
I see you've read the datamined abilities. Guess what: they weren't final.

>>167372370
>>167372639
On Edge absolutely shouldn't exist. A card for lowering the cooldown of your ability which lowers your cooldowns is just shitty design.

>Evie players on suicide watch
At least I got something out of this.

>>167372639
Predation is good for running around and let's be honest here, you'd probably rather get Chronos than Nimble to complement her cooldowns.

>>167372370
any idea what the cooldowns of her abilities are? I watched the stream but I honestly didn't pay any attention to details.

>>167372370
Why no healing cards?

It's ok though, everyone in here was also saying Torvald was broken before he was released and now are saying he's mediocre at best. Evie will still undoubtedly be the best flank in the game, and if you think otherwise you need to fight better Evies.

>>167377826
You don't need to Q against most targets, She already deals 1900 damage if the four daggers hit (and they will hit at such close range).
>>167377840
I'm really sad they didn't make Evie a little girl like that too, i'll still play both though.

Maeve's ult only affects the enemy team

>>167374075
This fits so well with Maeve's ult.

cassie's ult will probably counter it

Just realized her ult is a soft counter to all offensive ults in the game and can be used from anywhere int he map.

>>167378581

Come on, man, it is literally the antithesis.

>>167378597

No, it's not. Read it again.

>>167378396
this is a lo-res game

>>167378548
Yes, and if the ENEMY team's Maeve ults YOUR team's Drogoz... use the context clues, buddy. This is grade school shit.

>>167378656
300ft, so 100 yards (91.4 meters).

>>167378691
ok, still a counter though, poor viks, tyras, Andys, Pips...

>>167378253
Had this as Makoa. Every hook I managed to get felt glorious. It was like I was playing blind and my hearing and gamesense had to take over.

>>167378645
>>167378581
your hope means that Cassie's ult is 100% confirmed for not granting any vision of enemies through Maeve's darkness

>>167378735
Ha!

>>167378491
no, but slamming into walls isnt exactly an effective strategy

>>167378845
ssen get out

>>167378757
Oh, I was reading the wrong bit. 'Enemies within 300ft have their vision radius reduced to 30ft for the duration'. So it won't actually help with boxing, just engage/disengage.

>>167378865
It highlights enemy positions, even those in Stealth. Blindness would essentially give Stealth to the enemy team, and would therefore be displayed through Cassie's ult. Cassie's ult, however, is a global effect and has no range maximum.

>>167378597
>>167378773

It's not that OP since you are not completely blind. If you remember the position of the enemy you can still search for them with Drogoz, BK or Tyra, only slower. And Viktor, Andro and Pip's ults are too fast to be affected.

>>167378912
well obviously. but there is no mouse resistance with his ult. you can adjust you trajectory at the slighter mouse movement. something i think should be nerfed (because its easy one-hit kill)

>>167376752
theres a loadout in which lets you scope in rly fast and move fast while in scope mode which lets you do shot of 1000 damage multiple time and keep moving, i seen alot of kinessa do this im surprised you havent seen one

>>167378996

If your team is smart they can use their F abilities to move and then that Drogoz or BK is actually fucked

>>167379324
How would moving mitigate their ults when it already doesn't currently? Being blinded won't matter much when they know generally where you are and move fast enough to catch up to you regardless. Since it's not a full blind it doesn't do shit.

>>167378865
I wouldn't even slightly put it past Hi-Rez to make Maeve's ultimate have no actual working counter (including Cassie ults) and then quietly patch Cassie's ultimate to work correctly against it in like OB48. Probably will have this note:
>Fixed an interaction where Cassie's Ultimate wasn't always properly displaying enemy positions during Maeve's Midnight ability.
This will be after weeks upon weeks of players (including sponsored streamers and pros) saying it really needs a fix.

>>167379413
THE SAVIOR IS COMING

>>167379449
Why would Cassie's ult need a fix? It already makes her cc immune so she won't get blinded. Mauve's ult doesn't suddenly prevent the enemy team from shooting and it doesn't particularly counter many ults from the looks of it either. It's only OP to players who are bad.

Well! Now that Maeve's already old news, place your bets on the next Champion!

I personally feel it will be a nature-themed Support with a bladed weapon of some kind, possibly a sword or hammer. They will passively heal their allies, have a mobility skill similar to Drogoz's but much faster, and deal massive bonus damage when attacking an enemy up close.

>>167379841
If you can't keep up where the Makoa span when you can still see 30 ft in front of you, then I hate to break it to you but you're shit at Drogoz.

What? I'm not talking about SMITE, anon; I'm talking about Paladins, and something it doesn't have yet: a strong, passive healer with excellent mobility and the ability to closely assist their Front Line with good damage on the point. There's literally no other character in the entire game who's even close to this kind of design. If there were, Hi-Rez would definitely rework them to fit this concept instead of releasing a new one.

I mean come on, they're way too good a company to release a Champion who would completely trivialize the abilities and playstyle of an already underplayed Champion.

gotta make those skins and invest in that esport faggotry

Just compare your total damage and eliminations to the rest of damage champs. You are easy to kill and if you die the whole match to flanks, a Sha Lin will have 90k damage while you like 60k.

>team has viktor, androxus, cassie
>all have fancy borders
>they cant take down the drogoz that's on his 20th killstreak

fuck playing healer

>>167382062
t. member of losing team who would have lost even if that anon had picked viktor

>>167382265

Yes but other champs can contribute more

>Sha Lin, Cassie, Drogoz
Harder to flank and can defend themselves, better damage

>Viktor, Tyra, BK
Better damage and utility, can help in the middle

>>167382062
I know she is not the best, thats why in my 60 levels i rarely pick her
My question is why people expect me to play all roles, never miss a shot, help their computer run faster and clean the dust of the floor just because i picked a non meta character, i mean this a team vs team game why suddenly im the only one that matters
And you better not lose or you are getting 4 reports

>>167382741
Sha Lin is shit against flanks though.

>>167382741
I think you switched wei shen and burger king my dude

>double jump
>throw weapon
>dash that can hit enemies

literally Genji

palatards?

>>167382224
>not cut that glorified lizard's "wings" with an well placed axe

Thought experiment, what hero from OW would fit in Paladins and vice versa? Which ones would get absolutely rekt?

>>167383041

Ignore them anon, you can do whatever you want in casual, in comp you should at least be a good Kinessa. Those reports will amount to nothing.

Im going fucking insane, when i feel like picking a frontliner or healer im matched against literal retards and im able to 1vs3 no problem, but when i pick a dps i dont know how to play i gotta play against what i assume are the burrito team in smurfs

>>167382265
The big problem with Kinessa is that she lacks the "zoning" capabilities from other damage heroes, what I mean is that most damage heros can force enemies to maneuver around a certain area by denying it with sustained damaged, it has an effect similar to supressing fire, this helps a team shape the battle and gain maneuver space for itself, this is also why having too many flanks is generally a bad idea and more than 1 support (excluding pip) a very bad idea.

>>167383949
Exactly what I thought when I read the datamined notes and didn't even know about the double jump.

They should update the old characters kits to the new sanic speed standarts.

>>167385527
Meanwhile your Grover,Ruckus and fernando/makoa just took the point again while those 2 kill 1 person before having to retreat.

What's with these fucking faggots and just including more and more retarded cursors and being allergic to just let everyone pick what they shitting want.

>>167385550
OKAY how do we start?
If Fernando shoots his flame as he is walking backwards he will gain sanic speed.

If Makoa anchors a wall he zoops over to it. During this if he makes contact with someone and it kills them the anchor is automatically refreshed.

PIP's natural speed is flightless except now if he left clicks the ground below him he can potion jump. Getting hit cancels it and he can press it again to get the passive back aswell as more BONUS FAST.

Droggoz can now press thrust while mid air to start converting his boost into FAST forward (Or any direction maybe) movement. (Promotes cards the synergize with gaining and maintaining thrust). Bonus, He can double tap a direction to perform a quick roll that reflects projectiles but consumes fuel.

HI REZ! WE CAN GO FASTER!

her zoning is really good on almost any map that doesn't have snow. if she hears you coming and teleports early she can move way out of your range and you're stuck in her sightlines, and if you already used your movement skills you have to back out.

I finally won 1 match as Kinessa i can die in peace

Why do I have a feeling that Maeve will not be as strong as Evie?

She can deal damage easier than Evie because of the faster projectile but I think she's easier to track than Evie.

how do i play maldamba

>>167389421
throw snek
throw gourd
heal

Don't miss and you're fine.

>>167389284
Thats because Evie forces you to do a 180 with her blinks, maeve stays always at on side of your screen as long as you walk back
