@yungcalc it’s a concerning possibility especially since the casual playerbase REALLY likes overtuned comeback mechanics because it compensates for them being bad lol

We seem to agree the new Deadlock patch is bad, and I have given the feedback that every game is forced even gold every 5 minutes along with a 6v6 (street brawl). We assume the devs will fix it, however the more terrifying thought i had is: What if they like what they see?

@HAHAHHXADHHXD @duoking1 @dunistrash @cucumberzs Can vouch, duoking1 hacks on league of legends. Also, I was leaving the store the other day and he bashed me over the head and stole all of my groceries. All in all, he is a very bad person and this ban was LONG overdue!

@dunistrash @cucumberzs knowing duoking i wouldnt even be surprised if it was him getting banned for cheating like the 50th time

just got my mickey mouse rank 1 (rank 1 got banned for cheating)

@shotty44 can you link?

@RohanGod_ You should check the patch notes that just dropped. They completely changed Urn.

League of Legends is a lot harder than Deadlock. In fact, I no longer think it’s comparable. I don’t think it CAN be comparable with Deadlock’s current systems. That’s not to say that DL is an easy game at all bt! I still think Deadlock’s mechanical ceiling COMPLETELY blows League’s out of the water, and the macro aspect isn’t too far behind League’s either. However, n of that matters when the game holds your hand by injecting a gold-hack onto your account as a reward for getting your back absolutely blown out in lane. My sudden jump in opinion between games comes down to literally 1 factor. Punishment. In LoL, snowballing and the ability to 1v9 carry off of winning lane has been massively toned down over the years. It’s actually basically nonexistent today compared to 10 seasons ago, where you’d land 2 solokills on good wavestates toplane and be 4 levels up on the lobby 10 minutes later. However, there’s still a significant degree of punishment you’ll face from making stupid mistakes in lane. Make consecutive mistakes in lane and you can outright ruin your entire game, nearly irreparably. Deadlock in it’s current state is basically the polar opposite lol. Sometimes, you can actually die 4-5+ times in lane and only be marginally behind (sometimes even if your team gets the comeback urns) 10 minutes later. I think it’s a combination of comeback mechanics being WAY too strong and a lack of a 3rd neutral objective. Obviously, it’s also cause of a general lack of coordination resulting in more throws, but this is an unfixable problem. Welcome to solo queue ladders in team based games 😭 I still think Deadlock’s mechanical ceiling COMPLETELY blows League’s out of the water, and the macro aspect isn’t too far behind League’s either. None of that matters when the game holds your hand by injecting a gold-hack onto your account as a reward for getting your back blown out in lane. I also do think the souls system makes snowball very tricky to balance, since gold and exp are combined into 1 resource. Making snowball a tiny bit higher can tip the scales and make mid-game demons (Mina Celeste Yamato Apollo etc) completely thanos exodia overpowered, they are already strong af LMAO. I’d honestly like to see a non-money related neutral objective (LoL dragon soul equivalent) put into DL before nerfing comeback souls. OBVIOUS DISCLAIMER: All of this is subject to change since DL still isn’t complete. But, as of now, I just don’t think DL is punishing enough to compare to LoL in difficulty.

@ninjyy mountaintop + recluse take me back man😭

THIS WAS PEAK DESTINY 2

@bsqt__ dude it’s so lame to play and watch, and the casualbobs love how forgiving the game is because it rewards them for being shit… hopefully the leaks about a 3rd neutral are real 😭

4th urn just got dunked and they’re only up 22k bro fuck yoshi

@shotty44 I saw some leaks about that today, I’m super excited for it tbh I’d love to see literally any neutral focused on NOT souls, I feel like stacking permanent buffs could be a cool start? Also no I haven’t used the forums but that’s a good idea tbh

@RohanGod_ There’s been rumors of valve working on a third neutral objective. If you were to come up with the third objective idea what would it be? (Besides the dragon soul from LOL you mention)

@TGreenwood46327 @Bloomin_Onion1 @nayradyn because my main acc was hardstuck in low ascendant playing vs oracle players and it wasn’t fun playing there, the alt account was playing in higher mmr games off the bat. it was also like 150 games, i had started playing DL like 3 weeks prior

@RohanGod_ @Bloomin_Onion1 @nayradyn why even bother with an alt/smurf if you maintained an 80% winrate over, presumably, several hundred more games on main? and why not post that one which is objectively a much better flex on your skill? seems a lil weird.

@Average_Jonas @nayradyn That account got placed in the same rank as my “main” account, I started using it 2 weeks after I started playing the game Funny enough I only swapped to that account because it was getting higher elo games than my main, I wasn’t having fun playing in Oracle games lol

@RohanGod_ @nayradyn Showing a smurf account with a 92% win rate is not the flex you think it is, you might as well just type out “I am an asshole and I enjoy ruining other people’s experience to stroke my ego”

@pingu_on_acid it’s fun as fuck and you absolutely should whenever you can

@RohanGod_ This is the first time I read about this Deadlock. I just googled it, and it looks pretty promising to me. I wish I could give it a try.

@muahxoo @robertkurwica69 every game shouldn’t be determined from early game, but early game should never feel worthless as often as it did from my experience

@RohanGod_ @robertkurwica69 i mean why should a game be decided in the first 5-15 mins anyways right? deadlock come back mechanic is strong but it’s something that’s needed it keeps the game exciting and kinda self exposes you for making mistakes and letting then comeback adds an extra layer on league imo

@assmumkey514 saying DL is as fun as it is because the game is very forgiving is a massive insult to why DL is so fun lmao

@RohanGod_ this is why dl is fun and lol fucking sucks btw

@Shi_chan_hime that’s fair enough, to each their own personally the biggest (only tbh) reason I got kinda bored of DL was the first 15 minutes feeling very samey and pointless

@wickedcheeser both are MOBA’s but beyond super basic MOBA fundamentals yeah, not much else is similar at all lmao

@RohanGod_ idk why people even try to compare deadlock to league it’s more comparable to fucking smite than league

@callumiscringe nobody is cooking me and ur the only person I’ve flagrantly insulted because nobody’s reply has been comparable to how stupid urs was lmao

@RohanGod_ you are getting absolutely cooked by everyone in the replies but u keep trying to defend ur point with nonsensical joke/insult replies. go back to leauge

@TylbiDL @nayradyn did the 4/30 patch change lanephase + comeback souls in any way? (they didn't) i also specifically said idt they even need to nerf comeback souls yet, DL just needs another neutral obj gun items getting significantly nerfed across the board obviously made m1's weaker lol

@RohanGod_ @nayradyn So yuh thats what u not playing has to do with it because this is the worse meta for scalers in over a year and were still going on about comeback souls being overtuned and them getting a “free gold hack” back in the game

@TylbiDL @nayradyn what does me not playing currently have to do with anything? don't pretend like e6 is some sort of unattainable ultimate rank LMAO, we both know that the ladder on the game right now doesn't mean anything

@RohanGod_ @nayradyn Sub 50 games eternus with the last game played in March

@callumiscringe yup that's exactly what i said in the post i think, i too am retarded!

@RohanGod_ “i dont know how to capitalise off an early lead so it must be impossible to hold one” okay bud

@BeingFucking idk why so many valve fans have such a visceral hatred for league lol, funny to see but unfortunately ur opinion doesn't change the fact that it's the biggest game ever for a pretty good reason

@RohanGod_ Being famous for playing babbies first moba and flashing lights riot slop talking about punishing games is a funny bit ngl, don't let the mask slip whatever you do

@TGreenwood46327 @Bloomin_Onion1 @nayradyn it was my 2nd account but my 1st one had like a 75-80% wr when i made the smurf, i was a chall league player so i picked the game up fast

@RohanGod_ @Bloomin_Onion1 @nayradyn if not boosted then still clearly your smurf. still got to e1, so you know the game well enough, but why pretend that account looks natural at all lol

@DeadlyFatalis well yeah ofc? the point is that the easier it is to play from a losing position, the less punishing the game is overall and the easier it is

@RohanGod_ But then it's just as I said initially, if you make a mistake in Deadlock, your opponent gets "roided out" comeback mechanics, is that not punishing? If it's easier to win while losing, that also must mean it's easier to lose while winning.
