STOCKHOLM

@DeadlockAnon Oh, also rank inflation

@DeadlockAnon Eternus 6 is the highest division in the game, not Eternus 3. If you’ve spent any time climbing, reflect on the differences between the highest and lowest divisions of a rank. That’s your answer

@Matty_OW Because the casuals would quickly realize their ideas on balance would ruin their experience. A parent takes a kid to the dentist even though the kid protests because the pain is for a greater good. high elo players need to influence patches even if noobs don’t understand why.

Always have quietly supported the idea of split balancing between high and low ELO games. Why balance games based on casuals who cry when they can’t kill the hero who’s standing still?

@DeadlockAnon The matchmaker breaks ties by favoring the player with more games on the hero

The PickensBurgh vs IcyLib “press” is going down in the Top 5 most embarrassing moments in NFL Twitter history 😭😭😭

@harukzi @DeadlockAnon is that what you think this graph is saying lmao 😂😂yeah you got it bro good luck out there

@STOCKHOLMFPS @DeadlockAnon According to this graph, alchemists 1 are more skilled than ascendant 1… you cant be seriously using this as an argument, it doesnt even make sense

There is a 1:1 correlation between how good Infernus is and how bad the game is please kill this hero

@harukzi @DeadlockAnon why dont you sit this one out little buddy😂idk if calling archon "high elo" while simultaneously calling an eternus5 a "bot" is a good look.remember the lower ranks are generally filled with new players, so regular players have a normal distribution centered around about phantom

@STOCKHOLMFPS @DeadlockAnon Archon is high elo, bot

@TylbiDL @Dead_shot_17 @DeadlockAnon You’re still misunderstanding, which is okay. I never claimed infernus is not strong. Infernus is very strong. But saying “if this hero is strong the gamestate is always bad” lacks nuance exactly in the way a lower rank player would think

@STOCKHOLMFPS @Dead_shot_17 @DeadlockAnon U cant just call someone Archon for thinking Infernus being strong and then retort with this

@G04TY1 @DeadlockAnon Unironically true but funny image

@STOCKHOLMFPS @DeadlockAnon

@TylbiDL @Dead_shot_17 @DeadlockAnon Strong in current meta does not mean “if he’s strong the gamestate is necessarily poor.” W strawman

@STOCKHOLMFPS @Dead_shot_17 @DeadlockAnon Hes literally a top pick and even 1st round banned in every comp tourney and hes running eternus lobbies ur just self exposing rlly

@Dead_shot_17 @DeadlockAnon In this context, bad. Nothing inherently wrong with being a particular rank though

@STOCKHOLMFPS @DeadlockAnon Wait Im archon 💀 it that a good thing or a bad thing ?

Metro is the Brian Scalabrine of Deadlock

@JuzuLive Finally someone said it. If Metro wasn’t a lolcow this would’ve been patently obvious to everyone, but he struggles to express his knowledge without emotion so nobody hears the real information he’s got to offer

that recent drama between Xera and Metro is so bogus, Xera inted the game giving enemy team 3 rejuvs and then instead of taking accountability for his mistake started saying some biased shit cuz well... it's metro (if it's metro, then everyone gonna hop on hate train with me) but regardless how you hate/dislike metro, that was obviously Xera's fault, just say "my bad, i fucked up, sorry" and keep it cool, the ego is lil bit out of touch 🥸

Wish I still had time to grind ranked all day, at this rate I’ll be an e6 that’s not on the t1000 leaderboards. Goes to show how little reps has to do with improvement. An Aimlabs session + vod review does double what a pub can in the same amount of time.

@DeadlockAnon If I could do it again, i would only queue hypercarry and limit test a lot more. While there are mm issues in this game, this community is in a mass psychosis about “rank meaning nothing.” If you are better than your peers, you’ll rank up, I promise, it just takes some time

@DeadlockAnon I understand low elo players can be really bad, but worse players can still win fights when they’ve just got more money. Don’t get discouraged, this game is my first moba as well and the climb from lowest elo to top 500 was a long one but very do-able. (4/?)
