Why is Kinessa not deleted yet?
All of the maps play against her role as a sniper, and she's only good when she spams her mines.
Most Kinessa players can barely aim, they do shit damage, have only a few lucky kills, and are flanker food most of the time.

Is Kinessa useless, or is she just played incorrectly by tons of shitters?

Is it just me or does the best boy have it rough lately? First Torvald then Drogoz buff later, and he can't really do too much about all of this. I think that he's kinda falling off the meta more and more.
Not to mention that his shield is still not fixed, so the shots go through it, and fucking Pounce just straight up ignores it.

best case scenario is she was point blank knifed and cancelled immediately with pounce then followed up with two more knives which would take at minimum 3 seconds
androxus attacks once every half second and deals 600 without headshots, so in the same time he could have killed you with less effort and risk on his part
not to mention if he did get headshots he could three shot you and do it in 1.5 seconds unless you had at least Haven II, which would also make it so the maeve would need to hit you with a pounce and six knives to get a kill
she's really not overpowered, she's about as capable as androxus or evie

Because they keep reiterating how hard they're working to try and reach the champion quota, which probably means that other areas of the game will be neglected in turn. There will be no major champion reworks or remodels this year because of it and I'd be surprised if we got any maps beyond the ones being added to the test queue.

Kinda disappointed that Paladins was completely revamped to imitate Overwatch.

Paladins came out first and had some unique gameplay mechanics.

But now, it seems like the devs don't care anymore and just decided to copy all the popular aspects of Overwatch.

And you know what the sad thing is? Paladins is better and more popular than it was in its previous iteration.

Shame really.

Fresh from the retard pit.
"If they nerf wrecker, then how would players deal with Torvald?"

Thoughts? Aside from A BRISK FUCKING WALK OUT OF HIS LOW DAMAGE, SUSTAINABLE BEAM
>>
>>168192065
To be fair, Wrecker is the no-brainer method of dealing with him. He's got more shielding than Barik, and you can't just easily bypass it. The only thing you can really do, if no one takes wrecker, is focus fire on him from out of his range. Or from swarming him, since he can't hit all of you. The problem is that it's seldom 1v5 unless you're playing him yourself.

>Flying around the map and see Maeve running somewhere

Where Evie flies and Skye stealth runs to their destinations, Maeve just has to run which may be exploitable because I don't usually catch flankers exposed.

>she's mostly fine

>>168199783
>meanwhile she can kill most other champions 1v1

Not inherent to the character but to the skill of both sides in the fray, especially flankers such as Androxus, Evie, Maeve and Buck, hell, even Skye in her terrible state as she is at the moment!

>more damage with her than actual damage characters

Not a problem nor innate to the characters themselves but; again, to the skill of both sides. if you've played this game for long enough you probably came to notice that flankers are simply damage dealing champions with more of a focus on mobility, whilst most DD'ing champions focus on helping the tanks and cleaning the objective. Both categories are very flexible.

What build would you recommend for Tyra? I know she is a trash tier, but I enjoy playing her on payload, where my casual elo is low af I usually go with some speed on my F for extra jukes, or focus on fire bomb if enemy has double tank.

get the 40% reload speed after granade. it gives you burst for days.

What is the most retarded thing your team did?
I had a game yesterday, where a guy explicitly asked to play support in advance (comp) and picked rank 4 Grohk.
He then proceeded to get on the roof of the buildings overseeing the capture point in Timber Mill, and placed his totem there, so that literally no one on the team could get to it.

I can't wait for fast card seriously. Even with gutted speed, Drogoz is strong and with new Salvo he's REAL strong so I'm worried, he might receive some nerfs when Jet Fighter Drogoz comes back.

Am I the only one who thinks his current role doesn't fit his personality? He's supposed to be a little sneakthief, which implies he has a selfish nature, and yet he has the more altruistic role of a support and looks after his allies with heals.

Wasn't he designated as a "Blaster" in the earlier betas? It's all hazy to me, I didn't play paladins much back then.

Also yea, he's cute, he needs more skins.

Except it kinda is? You need to know maps, know champions to counter them properly, draft accordingly to the map you are playing or have a basic knowledge of burn cards and loadouts.
But I guess on level 20 you don't have to do much, just press lmb and w, and it will surely work out, especially if you play op garbage like Maeve.

not him, but the thing about the learning curve is that once you overcome it, there isn't really that much depth.

Once you have all of the explicit knowledge burned into your brain, once you know what every champ does, how they'll probably play, maps, and so on, that's great, but there isn't much beyond that. Games mostly play the same and everything starts being predictable. You know that the tank HAS to go on the point soon, you know exactly what that Ying plans on doing, and it all comes down to execution. There's only a limited number of options each character has in every situation.

The difference between a "seemingly" deep game (like, for example, a moba that has hundreds of characters and dozens of items) and an "actually" deep game, is that once you have all of the declarative knowledge down, you can synthesize it in new ways. There's a significant difference in a game where you only have two decisions to make at a time (and you know your opponent only has two decisions to make as well), vs a game where you have five options and your opponent has just as many.

Not that there needs to be a lot, as there's a lot of good games that rely more on execution than strategic depth.

I've been using him for a couple days to polish up. I don't know why you insist on thinking his kit isn't ass backwards.

The one thing that kind of makes up for it is his vine to latch quickly to tanks (or anyone really) in trouble, but the axe range thing pretty much goes to shit unless you have good control and can keep enemies under fire from far away while already on point.

>>168249324

Supports shouldn't be dedicated healers. Hi-rez is right in saying that. It's what gets you fucking useless wastes of a character slot like Mercy in Overwatch.

A Pip built around his slow is aggravating as all fuck. And even if he builds into healing potion cooldown he has a 1200 hp health bomb every 3 fucking seconds for his entire team to enjoy if they are grouped up for its aoe. Not to mention having the damage to contest any flanker coming for his backline.

So fuck off with this healing meme, go play medic in tf2 and pocket a shitbrained heavy if you're going to blabber about muh heals.

>>168249324
pip is more of a healer oriented around sticking with your flanks
his slow, mobility, heal, and ult are all more useful for flankers than they are for damage dealers or frontliners

I'm starting to really like Maeve now that I actually get to play her
what the were they thinking?

i can't stand picking pip and then seeing someone switch out their support to a damage or something.

i often just switch to pip last second so retards in casual don't mistake me for a healer instead of the flank/damage carry i'll be.

While I'm glad that Drogoz is getting some love, I think that they made him a little bit too strong now. His fire spit was always undodgeable, and now salvo too. I think hitbox on a spit needs a nerf, especially since spit and salvo spam kinda dumbs down Drogoz gameplay.

Ying's design confuses the shit out of me, because in Chinese 'Ying' means Blossom, but her outfit gives more arabic vibes? I don't know what to believe in anymore.

It plays a bit different because it has interesting game mechanics than normal hero shooters, but I find some of the heroes super fun and the upgrade system is great because you can change playstyles of the heroes on the spot to suit the situations.

It's quite good, takes a couple of matches to get used to it, and it plays much safer than Paladins or Overwatch, but it's still a rather fast game.

Playing Gigantic has actually made me a better Paladins player, now that I've returned to it.

Makoa's hook is a good method of dragging her into a murder pit, and oddly enough Kinessa's mines (if she gets them set up) slow her down enough to be targeted. Pip's slow potion also works well, and Grover's Cripple axe.
If you can manage to stun her (either with grumpy bombs or the snake stun), she's pretty much dead unless someone bodies for her.

As someone who plays Barik a lot, there are few things as pathetically stupid as a Maeve who gets close
She has 0 damage fall off, Barik isn't that quick to being with. Just bombard him from a distance.
If literally anyone gets in Barik's face, he can wreck their shit, this includes even Ruckus, because Barik's close range damage is insane.

For Tyra vs maeve it usually works well to mark her, that helps everyone else target her easier.

Besides that you got to fire and get the grenade shot in there for spike damage.

Really, everything about fight maeve is getting her to slow down or hitting her easier.

For playing maeve, Frontline re are a pain as you are about moving and they are not and most have very wide attacks to hit you.

>>168297674
Of the characters with some established lore (not many of them), fame and money seem to be the main motivators
Barik is a treasure hunter (money), Pip is a professional thief (money), Skye is a renowned assassin (money and more fame), Ruckus was part of a goblin invasion of an elven stronghold (probably after more money), Grohk is the prophet of a lightning god (fame and glory to his god) and Fernando thinks he's a knight and wants to rescue damsels in distress (fame and glory to himself).

Evie is a powerful mage in control of an ice wraith and seems to just want to fuck people up with her powers and Cassie is just a hunter looking for adventure.

>>168299682
Andro is an edgelord that killed a god even thought it shattered a moon, so he might be there for shits and giggles. Damba is a curious one, it seems to be Wekono's will that he's in Crosswind Hold now. Maybe Wekono is afraid of Androxus killing him, so he sent his chosen to keep him in check?
>>
>>168300114
Wekono isn't the god that Andro slew.
That aside, Tyra believes in multiple gods, and Mal'damba believes in "the spirits". Wekono is probably a notable spirit (probably ancestral) himself.
>>
>>168300114
I was actually thinking that the more 'major' players like Mal'damba, Androxus, maybe Evie, Grohk, or Makoa, etc. getting involved hinted that it may be something big like some god/ legion/ force/ army/ whatever waking up or trying to cross over and that most people like Kinessa or Pip being there was just coincidental since the place was probably so dangerous most people avoided it so it was a perfect place for the courageous or the crooked

Nah bro, dont you knoe?!?! U jus gotta counter her xDDDD

Yeah no fucking shit. CC is effective on everyone. She isn't special in that regard so that isn't a valid justification for how stupidly strong she is.

This. Drogoz is just a flying snack for a good maeve.
>>
>>168302760
it kind of is though, she's a very high burst damage character but is very vulnerable to it herself because of her very low health pool
she can't withstand constant damage either hence why she's so mobile, to get away from damage dealers or frontliners focusing her
the maeve cannot gank if you disable her hand

He is the king of bombs. Everyone else are mere peasants before him.

I made up some headcanon where BK is like some kind of dwarven mining bot gone crazy. Like in some hare-brained scheme to mine gems more efficiently, they stuffed a hell portal into a robot to spawn infinite bombs, and then had to cram a super AI in there to control the spawning. AI immediately goes Skynet, declares itself His Majesty, Bomb King I, and sets off to take over the world.

"decent" players that know what their doing is way better than complete noobs who're super fresh to the game. Not even buying items is the major telling point. Sometimes buying the wrong items even. I even got a tyra with level 3 cauterize when no one on the enemy has healing capability.

Jolt IV all day every day.

Bomb King is best on maps like Frog Isle and Fish Market (Especially Fish Market), because he can either wipe a team, or at the very least, keep them off their cart when it's near the water out of fear.
Everything else is a bit dependent at how confident you are in your ability to stay alive (like the self-knock back card, and others).
Generally, I recommend Jolt IV, and the card that lowers Grumpy Bomb's cooldown. Beyond that, do what feels right.
>>
>>168321049
note that this only works to a point, but is fine against most players.

if you are at the point where you're playing against ESPORTSPROS, poppy and grumpy only become mild annoyances and many high-level BKs don't even take the loadout cards for them. Then you have no choice but to do the obvious: git gud at landing stickies.

>>

Hahahahaha, yeah dude. a game with only slight changes to balance every week will clearly grow!

A hero shooter game like this need more character to keep things interesting. New character is what's going to keep people interested. You can say people are stupid all you want but that would just show you how stupid you are in terms of how to keep this kind of game interesting.

Even other genres like MMOs and fighting games keep adding new classes/characters. It's important to add new content that people care about.

doesn't need to be. being a "hero shooter" doesn't suddenly change the fact metas change without adding new characters.

>>
>>168320835
>implying triple tank isn't already the meta

Silly anon, Fun is for kids.
>>
>>168326608
Already stated that these hero shooter games relies on the characters to grow. Meta changes alone won't capture people's interest.

Especially in these day and age where there are tons of competition, releasing an update without a new character will not get people start playing a game or make people who stopped playing go back.

Some games can survive with only meta changes because they already have solid followings(like CS:GO for example with players who've played since ages ago).

It is a different age and people wants different things now. Paladins is a new game without a community of players from previous games. They need to make new and interesting content to get more people to play.
>>
>>168325856
Only strategically deep games will change on their meta unless something weird and unintentional is discovered

Paladins is not deep enough for that.
>>
>>168326902
>Already stated that these hero shooter games relies on the characters to grow.
The existence of TF2 makes it seem like they don't actually have to do that, even if that's an easy way to do it.

>Paladins is a new game without a community of players from previous games
The game has to be good. That will attract players. There are plenty of games that were new that attracted large playerbases. CS was one of them almost two decades ago. This is a really poor explanation.

>They need to make new and interesting content to get more people to play.
If you were to say that Hirez is incapable of making a good enough game without adding 15 new characters in a year to keep people interested then I can agree with you. But don't say hero games HAVE to do this when that obviously isn't the case.

To make it clear: Nobody is saying Hirez won't gain more popularity by adding new champions. Nobody is confused as to why Hirez is doing this. That's something off-topic that one of you retards insists on bringing up. What is being said is that adding more champions makes the game shit and you're shit if you like it.
>>
>>168327439
What type of mechanics do you think they could add to paladins to make it deep?
>>
>>168327461
>adding more champions makes the game shit and you're shit if you like it.

kek, keep spouting your garbage you retard.
Also, the only examples you can give are old games.

CSGO already have a big following and is not a hero shooter so they don't rely on any new characters.

TF2 is somewhat of a hero shooter and it's decline in recent year is a testament to the shift in what people want from games to keep it relevant.

But of course, you can believe whatever you want, including the: "y-you're wrong and you're a big stupid doodoohead if you disagree with me".

Reduce the waiting time by 1/1.5/2 secs or more.
>>
>>168327461
that kind of thinking leads to the belief that ONLY Fighter, Priest, and Wizard should be the only classes anyone ever picks and all the other classes are bloat and there is no reason to play them.

Adding new characters only makes the game shit if it ruins a delicate balance, like CS:GO's or Overwatch's. Paladins is actually well-designed with its TTK, to the point that its metagame is nowhere near as fragile as other online shooter's.

Except when they added Ying but fuck her.

you literally cannot singlehandedly take on a good maeve as most characters, and maeve will avoid tanks like makoa or torvald so they're worthless against her too.

the only way to counter a good maeve is to doubleteam her, which can be hard to do in casual because people go off on their own.

You won't be able to kill a full HP Maeve with a single silence on your own, unless they are really incompetent and don't run away. But 90% of the time you'll have a team backing you and she's dead in a fraction of a second anyway.

Even just zoning her out is a victory, but have your protection prepared, because they'll come back claws ready and hissing.

>>168376991
bloo cards are largely based on the enemy team's comp
buy haven if they have alot of direct damage champs (maeve, cassie, viktor, tyra, kinessa, etc.)
blast shields for nando, torvald, pip, drogoz, idk who else
resilience for torvald's abilities and ultimate as well as pip's ultimate (you can completely deny that shit if you upgrade it up to 2-3) and a grumpy bomb spamming bk. i'd pick haven/blast shields 75% of the time over resilience unless torvald is someone who can spell utter doom for you if you get too close (maeve) a/o you face against him alot. mostly use it for frontliners who are always in a maelstrom of abilities, cc's, cripples n shit

In what world is it acceptable for a flanker to auto win ALL OF HER DUEL MATCH UPS. Then the enemy team has to dedicate 2 to 3 heroes to take care of her, and even that she has decent odds of escaping because of her insanely mobile kit. Mean while your team is fighting 4v2. Total free win hero

It's ok anon, in the internet no one can tell you're lying.

I'm sure you get competent teammates 24/7 that focus her when you hit the cripple.
I'm sure you're so skilled that you can kill her solo by hitting her with 4-5 slowass axes while she spins around with a speed that would make Sonichu proud, all this before she kills you first.
I'm sure her other four teammates never fuck you up while you're distracted trying to axe her hyperactive ass.
I'm sure you can hit her across the map with your axes despite her supersonic speed.

I'm sure you can accomplish all of these things against skilled Maeves, because you're just so skilled and agile.

Can someone test this grover loadout for a game or two? Its the best one ive made even if it doesn't look that good.

You basically focus on crippling down the main tank and it gets SHREDDED, then cripple everyone giving you easy eliminations and letting you spam your blossom on clutch moments because of adrenaline.

Of course you need to buy chronos till level 2 then start building haven or something so you don't die too easily late game.

She's way too strong on fish market, that's where you really see how broken she is.
>>
>>168385612
I don't understand the purpose of the damage flanker dichotomy. I think they did it to have 4 categories, because theyre fucking retards. When Drogoz has his speed back, won't he be a "flanker"? Isn't Cassie a "flanker"? It's not like Androxus and Buck and Maeve and Evie are any less competitive in teamfights to compensate for how good they are at 1v1s. And in fact as a Drogoz I can 1v1 all of those champions fairly reasonably except for Maeve, since she can just doublejump or teleport out of the way of every rocket I send at her, while staying outside of my range with her speed and weapon range. She's just a shit OP character which is why she's overplayed, and she isn't even likable like Cassie, she's just a dirty little suburban girl with died hair masquerading as an edgelord. Anyone who plays Maeve needs to off themselves asap.

Those Kinessa mines are a real big problem, anon.
How can you expect her to get rid of them without bulldozer?
>>
>>168386986
Made me chuckle..

>>168386986
Does kinessa's mines count as a deployable? Because that at least would put her above deft hands grover (which i picked for my first 2-3 games before i realized it did nothing) (i actually top damaged on those games)

maybe someday. his ult being basically useless is what ruins his self-synergy as a pure support-- if he gained invuernability/fast regen on himself during his ult, it would be good.

Grohk is in a really weird position where he can actually be effective if you play him as a half support/half damage dealer, if you are remotely competent at tracking targets while aiming (I use 3 ingame sens w/ 800DPI on my mouse).

The key to playing Grohk right now is to survive as long as fucking humanly possible while providing as much supporting fire as you can. because he doesn't have to deal with bullet-spread, you can cuck the shit out of enemies with heals or shields if you grab the corresponding itemization (I always get Wrecker straight out of the gate if they have Ruckus/Torvald/Fernando and I'm soloqueuing).

Cards I go are:
> Thunderlord III
extra 15% uptime on left click is the difference between life and death (not having to pause to wait for recharge is the difference between helping your team kill someone in an important fight, or not killing them).

> Gale II
> Haunting II
because you aren't the team's only support/hard support,you don't need gale higher. Gale II + Haunting II will have near-synchronized cooldowns if you pop Ghost Walk right after you use your Healing Totem. always use this when you run out of charge and you're in a sticky situation-- either they kill the totem and your team covers your ass because you're back near them, or they do not kill the totem and you have full health and a full charge of lightning.

> Shamanic Might IV
free 400 hp, literally the definition of the difference between life and death

> Totemic Rescue I
free 200 hp if you drop below 30%-- this happens earlier because of Shamanic Might IV, so they have stupid good synergy together especially if you consider the fact that with Gale II + Haunting II you can immediately drop a totem and ghost walk and heal right back up.

>When Drogoz has his speed back, won't he be a "flanker"?

No because his mobility isn't like that of flankers.

>Isn't Cassie a "flanker"?

No burning her mobility skill is to reposition and counter strike. She can't use it the same ways others can as a get in get out because even carding around her roll it still has notable periods of being open to fire, may miss and is risky. Also restricted to the ground like Skye.

>When Drogoz has his speed back, won't he be a "flanker"?

Drogoz gives suppressing fire and his mobility leaves him open to hit scans and his damage is sustained. He can move but he doesn't move FAST with quickeness. Up from bottom of point to the top of the building in a snap.

>t's not like Androxus and Buck and Maeve and Evie are any less competitive in teamfights to compensate for how good they are at 1v1s

It puts them in a spot that makes them vulnerable and they needa team to make it work anon. Androxuus spread out his body moves predictably in the air and announces himself on top of being blatant as fuck and open to hit scans. Evie has to go close and she has a casting time. Maeve does no damage, tips you off of her presence and needs her team to actually make it do shit and she has to be close

He should at least be able to ghost form during ulty
>>
>>168388891
But yes it must be noted that Cassie is the best damage dealers or at least top 3 because she moves so fast at no cost to herself and is effective in all ranges and bursts hard.

>>168388891
just because the flanks are buffed as hell doesnt make it good game design

the fact is they actually defeat themselves because it makes it very stupid to do anything but deathball, which flanks arent as good at

and when youre casual queueing you cant rely on your team being able to deathball coherently, so often as not flankers dominate

all because of the emphasis on certain roles such as frontliner making it so they need to have some champions very good at defeating frontliners, instead of making it like a moba where any champion can beat any champion and the emphasis is on mastering the disparate abilities

i am basically fine with it except for the cases of buck and maeve because as of buck's tankiness and maeve's plain superiority over drogoz. before it was possible to exist as a mobile ganker if my team wasnt deathballing, now if the enemy has a maeve that is at all competent i am 100% shut down. i actually have my drogoz build around thrust to be able to move across the map and gank at will in case my teammates arent deathballing, but now if that is the case the enemy maeve can casually destroy me whenever she wants for the reasons i listed in my post. it often happens that my team wins the game by a fair margin and i still have hopeless and harrowing encounters with the enemy maeve, whenever she decides to target me, because of how OP she is for the reasons I already described.

Flanker can deathball but they need back up from their teammates and do picks.

>instead of making it like a moba where any champion can beat any champion

Jesus Christ that's completely wrong.

imo she and grover would both be better with reloads
as is their weapons are so braindead to use since you can hold left click forever
grover in particular is completely braindead because he has perfect accuracy, no arc to compensate with, and deals bonus damage at long ranges which just encourages him to sit his ass in the far back spamming left click down hallways or onto the point
if I just wanted to spam chokepoints mindlessly the whole game I'd play Overwatch

Yesterday I had an Evie who was like that to our Torvald saying stuff like "God I love this man" and also thanking him several times. She also did shield him from a Dragon Punch and said "Only for my Torvald". It was nice in some way

Illuminate is not too crappy in some situations. Had an enemy Skye always running through our backranks. I could spot her from further away, throw my snake in her face and just finish her off rather quick. I would say its character dependant on who is on the enemy side

He outdoes Tyra despite the similar load out.

Every game
>Everybody picks a champ
>Nobody goes in the middle because they are afraid to die
>Die even harder
>Call everyone noobs
>Lose


Solution:
>Pick Ying everytime
Stand on the objective all the time
>Spam illusions nearby so others would have to come to objective to get healed
>Jump everytime to dodge the shots
>Win

This is the best strategy I found yet.
One disadvantage though- Ying has no range
>>
>>168404313
they're both shit

>>168404529
I want Victor to stay out of meta. I don't want the same thing to happen in Paladins that happened in Overwatch where they buffed Soldier76 the most braindead character so now he dominates in both low skill play and high skill play and there's never a reason to not use him.

Blizzard doesn't play their own game and only look at pro stats so they don't see a problem. I have faith that with all of Hirez's flaws, they'll know that a competitively viable Victor would just be the biggest headache to play with.
