You might be for thinking the average has anything to do with the way the system works. Bottom team has 400+ elo over the partied team.
>>
>>183848892
I notice that most people who complain about matchmaking plays at very unreasonable time. You cannot expect to get good matches playing that late? There's not enough good players around anyways. I would wager that most of those who are on right now are probably Asians playing on the Europe server, even though it gives worse ping overall.

there's a space marine chest in the datamining files. not a guarantee and it's mainly for viktor's "space" skin (also datamined), but they might throw gundamnando in there like they did with chancellor mal'damba/steampunk androxus with the steam chest. fitting theme and all that

I think comparing Elo is being done wrong. It's supposed to be the same odds of winning with the same score difference, but I feel like 1700 vs 1900 would be a closer match than 2700 vs 2900.

shitposting is always against the rules, unless it's on /s4s/ or something

I guess it can become shitposting when it starts being too insistent. That said, it's not like jannies or mods follow rules down to a T, they just do whatever the hell they want and if it pisses them off then off its head it goes.

What I don't get is why they went now after Fernandoposter. He doesn't even post images.
Meanwhile Lianfag's posts are still up, and to a lesser degree Evieposter's too, but I'm assuming he also made the thread.

I'll post the standard post next thread, and we'll see how we go from there. Don't think we should do any explicit fearmongering yet, but it is rather unfortunate.

Nonetheless, you should all remember that nothing - nothing, will stop my appreciation and adoration for Fernando. This shouldn't stop you, either.

She's gotten pretty good at dealing with airborne champions lately-add that to her natural talent at preventing the enemy from contesting, and she can be very annoying to approach on point. Just make sure you don't charge into something you can't handle without backup.

5 Fernando, Go ahead try and fight it. Just 1 Fernando can take on almost every damage and flank in the game. You know how many shields with regen's that regen them back to 60% health you gotta burn through all while 4 Fernando's are blasting fire balls off every 3 seconds. By the time you burn through the 3rd shield the first shield is off cooldown, Even if you could penetrate their wall of death there's the simple fact that Fireball will kill almost anyone.

Why is Hi-Rez so bad at making designs? All the characters in this game except a few look either over designed or horribly clashing sections of a characters design. Smite is like this too, especially once you take into consideration the hideous skins.

the base look of each God looks fine. They can put silly skins, I don't really care. Other games have silly skins too.
>>
>>183867135
But this creates inconsistent art direction, it looks terrible once you get into a game with doge, rapper, disco skins. Games like Gigantic and Dota 2 do skins so much better because it's still the character under the new design and looks consistent amongst the other skins.

goofy skins are fun, when i played heroes of newerth my favorite thing about it was that the skins completely changed how someone looked, in dota 2 its just pussyfooting around the artstyle and anything that remotely tries to push it gets set as arcana and sold for $30+ dollars. i dont see the issue of having skins that get ridiculous when the game tells you who you're going against after you pick and while its loading

and if you're worried about neon skins like doge we already have star glam evie so we've already passed the point of no return

It should be a bannable offense to not pick support if you're the last one to choose and no one has picked support yet.
>>
>>183870346
Because he can fly, that's it. If your flank is Evie, Zhin or Skye and you don't have hitscan damages then he is too free to do as he pleases. Since people don't want to deal with it they ban him.

Well, in some cases, you'd end up with the same player sweeping all the categories, and as gratifying as it might be to see your performance vindicated four times over, it'd probably make some of the douchier elements just plain insufferable.

I actually like it when nobody on the enemy team buys cauterize because you have no support on your team. Inara can basically pop to full health in a second out of combat with earthen guard and veteran

What's a good loadout for Grohk? Doesn't even need to be one that's decent at healing (tho that would be nice), just one that can be played effectively without dragging the rest of the team down.

>>
>>183875927
Well, he can heal multiple targets, and lvl 3 rejuv will make that 325 per second.
His legendary can also make you deal 15% more damage while healing, so it's useful, but the other legendary heals you up when market by 15% of max health.

He looks like a very viable healer.
Of course, if the faggot playing it does his job and stops thinking he's a damage.
>>
>>183874753

Is Healing Rain really worth using? It seems like you could just skip it all together. The % doesn't seem high enough to make it better than Extra points you can put into Gale, Crackle and Outreach. Healing Rain at 4% max health per second is only 200 maybe 250 HP extra a second on the highest health tanks which could be useful but consider you trade having totems that last until the cooldown resets. Personally i like to skip Healing Rain and go Crackle 4, Outreach 3, Gale 3 which lets me summon the Totem as soon as it disappears with just 1 Ghost Walk to drop the cooldown by 3 seconds. Obviously using Totemic Ward.
>>
>>183876212
More like lvl 3 caut will make that heal 25 health every second.
>>
>>183875927
I wouldn't say useless, but probably gonna struggle to match the numbers Seris and Damba can produce.

With the right cards and items, he can have Astral Mark up on 3 of his 4 teammates at any given time, with a 15% burst each time he applies it. The big thing about his heal is that it lasts so long (up to 12s) and can be applied without line of sight. He probably has the most hands-off healing in the game - even Ying has to constantly be managing cooldowns and adjusting for positioning. That's not to say you won't have a bazillion people who just wanna zoom around with Lifesteal and won't be bothered to press a button every 8s.

>>183876583
This isn't really valid. Caut3 brings Mal'damba down to 28hp/s, but no one fuses that to suggest he's a shit support.

If anything, Jenos has a good healing ability because of the 15% dmg bonus, which no amount of cauterize can take away.
>>
>>183875927
If you go with the healslut legendary you can heal for a flat 15% which is pretty valuable against Caut. I remember someone getting 100k healing with him before. Probably will build a healslut legendary as well as a seconday support legendary if I don't have to solo support. I will probably make one for that +15% damage as well if I party up with good Flank/Damage.

Here's is a question that 90% of people get wrong

Your team is 5 flanks should you
A. Fight for the objective head on with 5 squishy characters
B. Flank and seize the objective when the enemy is dead

No wonder you guys are still in low ELO hell. 5 flanks is better than 4 flank+1 tank/support/damage, especially if those 4 flanks already have high enough levels to know what to do in a 5 flank team.

Anyway the answer is: Move in a huge pack or 3-2 pack and smash their flanks before coming from their backline and kill the support and take the point. If up againest a deathball comp sitting on point, accept that you got hard countered and lose.
>>
So what's the best legendary for Jenos? Seems like the void grip one is nearly useless if you're not playing against shitters. The damage bonus one looks nice but I solo q a lot and when it comes to picking your loadout, assuming your teammates will be competent is as bad an idea as assuming your enemies will be incompetent.

Is healbot Jenos the way to go?

Right up until the point your enemies take Resilience. Then Void Grip's only purpose is to nab some CDR through Falling Star.

I'd take it if I saw 2+ members of the enemy team buying a different blue item from the outset though.
>>
>>183879868
I'm still dealing with people who take deft hands against tanks and healers, so I'll probably have a grand ole time with Jenos.
>>
>>183879175
All 3 are situational depending on your comp and enemy comp.

Void grip leggo: Without the leggo, about 1/4 of the cast is fucked as they have no movement skill or can't use it while in the air. With the leggo, this extends to 3/4 as it shuts down all movement skill. The last 1/4 has CC immune on demand so there is no way to pin them.

Damage boost leggo benefits you and the player so it is best with flanks/damage so you can play as Viktor passing out bandaids for booboos.

Healing leggo is for dual tanks, you heal roughly 700+ immediately which push you to the same level as Ying but with Viktor's damage.

Ironically, the best skill is the Solar wind, you get either a toggable 32% shield or Pip weightless on demand or ammo refills while kiting. This will be the skill that sperates pros from noobs
>>
>>183879868
But you're forcing your enemies to take resi, so they can't take caut against 1.5 healers in the first round and delaying it for the later ones. If they buy caut they get focused. That can only be a problem if your team is cc heavy.
Hell, you could even start with the grip loadout and swap just before the game starts to bait buys out or viceversa.
But as I said I haven't seen enough footage and theorycrafting is often oversimplification, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see
also my booster finished yesterday and I spent everything on chests so I will only have the money to buy him tomorrow

How do people get low damage numbers? like 10-30k. Even player hyper defence as a tank or healer you can still easily get 40k. You have to be actively passive to get such low damage numbers.

If you can't trust the people on your team to accomplish anything with +15% damage for 10-12 seconds, you can't trust them to accomplish anything with 250 HP a second for 10-12 seconds either.

Luminary is going to be the best legendary because a) it's a good support tool that a capable team can make good use of, b) it means Astral Mark will never be made entirely useless due to Cauterize, and c) if nothing else, it still offers you a flat 15% damage bonus to work with in the event the rest of your team is absolute ass.
>>
>>183880472
Bad positioning leads to you either not doing enough damage from far away or getting focused and dying a thousand times. Also bad aim. I know because I'm a terrible dps
>>
It's so weird the matches i'm having now, everyone is competent at their role and doesn't play like absolute shit but I'm being allowed to run rampant as Tyra with 60%lifesteal without anyone buying cauterize. It seems like i've hit a bracket of people who can play fps but can't make builds.

Healing legendary, -2s CD on heal, +30% heal range, +1s heal duration, self-healing on heal 2, whatever filler card.
During match, rush chronos. In spawn or in between engagements stack your heal on someone (it adds to the duration each time you reapply, rather than refreshing or overlapping).

>>183883067
By playing like a true support! (aka a coward) I'd just occasionally grip/ult someone to get picks. Also it's kinda hard not to constantly keep tabs on people when you get your heal to 4s CD.

Since Hi-Rez is planning to change the appearance of some characters to fit with their new theme of the game's world, what are your thoughts and hope with it?

I'm wondering if they'd actually go 100% with their statement because characters like Kinessa takes a lot of planning to make them fit with the new theme while being faithful to the original as much as possible. What they did to Ruckus wasn't that bad as I expected. It's not perfect but it's decent.

I just hope that the characters that will receive this treatment will look closer or even better than the original. As much as I want to criticize the game for changing the theme all of a sudden, I can't really complain since the game's in beta and because of it, I don't really have that much big of a right to complain.


Speaking of face lifts, who are the characters they're prioritizing with the visual change again?

What is the "new style" exactly? I've always assumed that Paladins is post-scifi fantasy setting, kinda like Book of the New Sun or Endless Legend, except bit more cartoony. In such, all the characters would fit more or less. If they want to start bulding lore and stuff they should make a map that is like a medieval dig-site where there's some hi-tech scifi ruins being uncovered.

>>183904235
They want to save face. I check my matches every now and then and guru is always ALWAYS accurate. When we go against 3.5elo stacks and my team is 2k the match lasts 6 minutes.
Guru is inaccurate under lvl 30 accounts where the game's matchmaking separates from over lvl 30 accounts but that's it. The matchmaking is just shit and needs polishing, specially when it comes to parties.

>>183905298
They think comp is the ultimate form of the game, when pros play casual.
>>
>>183905521
Pros play casual because queues are shorter and they can stack
>>
>>183905298
Because you can get good games there sometimes, and most games have relatively good picks at higher rating. Unlike casual where people pick 5 damage and then maybe 2 of them switch to tank and healer in most of the games.

wyrm jets is his best legendary all around, the other two can be situationally useful but faster movement is universally applicable
take fusillade if you want to destroy shields or slow moving front lines quickly
take combustible if you just want to sit back and spam spitfire over the point the entire match
if you can't land hits aim for their feet to at least try to get splash damage
be careful when and where you use your thrusts because it's great for escaping some attacks like buck's range or mal'damba's projectiles but against others like viktor or lian's hitscan it's basically a death sentence

combustible is a really weak legendary if you want to play aggressively at all, its only use is spamming over the objective and it excels at that
it especially leaves drogoz far more vulnerable to being dove in on since he will have neither the damage nor the speed to fend off any flankers

I've won games where the enemy had 2 healers, 2 tanks and a damage with just a single tank and a bunch of damage/flanks. It's not super necessary to follow the team comp suggested if you play decently.

You've noticed wrong. Aim of pros is nothing special in paladins and only thing that differs them from any average high ranked player are team and tactics.

>>183919887

Best tip i can give is to try and aim with your body, Move your character instead of just your gun. Playing is also the best way to improve aside from that.

I thought kinessa was a meme, I thought i'd just get flanked all game and die. But she actually has cards to speed up scope mode and also her mines shut down flanks or any mobile god hard especially since they also give you line of sight on where they moved to. Did I get lucky or does she get shut down hard by people who know what they're doing? She seems pretty solid as a Champion.

That's competetive rating, not ELO. You're most likely 2800, check on Paladinsguru
>>
>>183921383
She can dish out decent damage and she DOES have pretty good escapes. It's just that if your team doesn't know how to support her while doing their duties and the enemy flankers are good, she can be curb-stomped pretty hard. But so can pretty much anything else.

>Drogoz and Viktor are for people that can't aim

Sure thing buddy. Drogoz has travel time on all of his shots and Viktor has to aim for your head and hit a majority of his shots to kill you. Cassie can blow up your health in a single shot and shoots giant ass missile arrows that you'd have to be braindead to miss. Kinessa requires some aim I'll give you that.

Lex also has one of the hardest to hit left clicks in the game, It has such a tiny cross-hair you miss the shot if you're even a tiny bit off. The only thing that saves Lex from not being the most skill reliant character is his right click being auto-aim.
>>
At which point did you feel ready for competitive?

I started playing 2 months ago and got a low ELO score at about 1700. I don't want to hinder some competitive team with my ineptitude so i stick with casual matches.

>>183940372
The only consistent element is you, this isn't a game like World of Tanks where individual performance basically makes no difference to game result. If you think otherwise then you have a lot to learn, not shitting on you but you really do need to get gud. The 50/50 argument makes no sense when its practically impossible to get below a 60% winrate on new accounts if you're not total trash at the game.

Same, except I'm only 2.7k. I get teammates who are comically inept at the game most of the time in those modes, and playing tank like I want will lose us the game when every teamfight goes to 1v5 with me left on the point alone to get dogpiled.

Test maps doesn't have its own Q, I always see the same high elo fags. And surprise, they are always against me because I'm supposed to balance the teans.
Onslaught does have it but not from scratch like guru tells, I'm guessing it's actually matching based on elo and level. Either that or I'm just unlucky.
>>
>>183944318
Or just play around your teams situation properly instead of just blaming them for your own short comings. Just take some responsibility for yourself, all I'm saying. You have to assume they're houseplants connected to a keyboard if you want to climb the latter.

Or just stack with a few good brothers and farm freelo. Way easier then solo.
>>
>>183944509
Correctly assessing the situation is not blaming my team mates for my shortcomings.Saying I could win if my team mates matched theirs in skill is not a false statement


>Or just stack with a few good brothers and farm freelo. Way easier then solo.
How would it be easier if only I matter?
>>
>>183944459
Because those high elo fags don't get games in siege if they Q for all 4 outside rare times. Unless its a super exciting patch after 5-7 days 80% of my dozen nightly games are test map with the same dozen fuckers.

Although not as much with the onslaught shit. Onslaught is lame. I enjoy it but when it compromises 70% of your games it gets old.

They need to make this happen less often. In theory it's supposed to work with the Elo math, but in practice it doesn't work that way.

Because if you play solo you're the only uncontrollably element where with a party the elements are more controlled by playing with non shitters (or just a friend on a low elo account if you're into exploiting the system). Either way majority of siege games rarely have a huge elo gap unless parties involved in which case the non partied team always has the advantage.

For the record I'm not intending to attack you or your skill level, I'm trying to get you to focus on the things you can control. Wasting energy complaining about the random literal child who playing andy for the first time in 3 months doesn't really do anything for you in the long run. You can learn from the game regardless, that is what matters. Learn game. Winning/losing means nothing unless money is on the line.

Maybe I'm just numb to MM since I played with a lot of terrible systems in the past, but majority of games I feel like i could have won if I've done things better (I'm in the 2900~ range)

Outside communication advantage the elo difference is usually 200-700 in favor of the solo team.

Communication matters don't get me wrong but most of the time in casual you tilt one you tilt them all.

He is right, in theory parties are supposed to be at a disadvantage because they know each other/are on call/have a strat etc. This doesn't always work because at our level party fags are always high elo and the matchmaking shits itself trying to find a balanced match and it fails horribly.

Nope, I love him for being the Anti-Skye. Thanks to him, you hardly see 5 flank meme teams anymore and only the best flanks get to kick his ass easily. I've hardly see him anymorw though, probably because his left click and ult is too hard to use.

IT LITERALLY BIT ME THROUGH WINTER GLOVES AND IT HURT LIKE HELL. NOT A FULL GROWN CAT I MEAN A KITTEN. After struggling for 15 minutes i grabbed it and threw it away. Oh, I was fucking furious i grabbed a glass and threw water on it. He looked so sad and disappointed.

You have to stay aware of your surroundings, you can't afford to make any mistakes or be caught by surprise, sometimes you keep your distance just chipping away at people's health until a important target is damaged enough or out of cooldowns, then you jump in and assassinate him with the net (better not miss), sometimes you play as a true flank and try to sneak around to dispose off someone, if you are very fast and accurate its possible to kill people before they are able to react, also you should not use your jump to get in a 1vs1 save it for when they use their own escape.

With ensnare you have enough damage to easily scare and even kill a tank, if you have your ult use it to surprise kill their tank (ignore the healer if you have caut 3).
