Fucking hell I fucked up twice now

GLORY

First for Bomb King best boy

...

What's the build for viktor around the 0 recoil look like again?

>you will never be manly enough to knight yourself so you can pick up chicks

I think it's more just linking to someone with a beam and following them around while constantly healing them. The only Paladins support that's almost like that is Ying with the way the heal from the illusions works.

Wouldn't the card that makes it so when you go weightless gives you health recovery be better off then sturdy? I've got a similar build where I spam weightless + potions and pick up the burn card to reduce heals on the other team and spam his AoE shot to keep it up. Keeps you alive while dueling or if the group figures to harass you for a few, and lets you heal from range + spam your skills pretty damn rapidly.

>When you kill someone with Cassie's knockback+air shot.

>How does Mercy heal that's different from the Pala supports?
By being entirely fucking useless

Ying sounds like a 40 year old white woman trying to sound like an old Asian woman trying to sound young and immature

What a terrible voice

>ywn become the servant of Fernando to travel the lands with him and get some side pussy

Loadout editing in champion select fucking W H E N ?

Skye is fun.

I want a beholder character.

any good and tested Buck builds?

>0 recoil
what's the point
unscoped will still go all over the place
scoped has such low recoil anyway anything higher than 50% is waste

Right. Should've said "like the Medic". I think that's more universally recognized.

Also, OW is just a TF2 clone anyway.

What about a cute girl Beholder?

Also, we need a female Frontliner.

Scoped has recoil? When I tested I didn't see any at all but I didn't do super long range because I was too lazy to run all the way over there. The dot seemed perfect to me at longish/mid range.

In terms of design:
>KING TIER
THE KANG himself
>GREAT TIER
Grohk
Drogoz
Fernando
>GOOD TIER
Makoa
Buck
Ying
>OK TIER
Barik
Ruckus
>UNINSPIRED TIER
Skye
Evie
Grover
Cassie
Viktor
>SHIT TIER
Pip
Androxus

How do you guys like this idea?

If you win the KOTH-section of the Siege playmode three times in a row, you're automatically awarded the fourth winning point.

I think this suggestion is perfectly reasonable. If the enemy team has a really shitty defensive team comp that is only good at holding off a payload push, they deserve to lose the match automatically after losing the KOTH section three times. Why make the aggressors waste their time taking the KOTH capture point four times? I already love the fact that you can't win a match by defending, you aren't awarded a 4th point if you have 3 and defend a payload push.

I actually really like that, although I'm not sure it's exactly necessary since if you get the point all 3 times you're probably gonna get it the 4th time too.

I like Androxus's gun, the way the ammo is green fire in the chamber, but yeah, he looks like a shitty Spawn ripoff.

it's Christina Vee. Riven from LoL, Amaterasu from SMITE, Cerebella from Skullgirls, Shantae.

it's just not fun gameplay. The fun comes from ''oh man everyone loves me! I'm so useful!'' but being able to shit out damage AND heal people at the same time is just more engaging.

>grohk being anywhere near great
>evie not at least ok
>skye not shit tier (although maybe the kunai and elf thing save her, maybe?)

Fine what's a decent build for victor's rifle then?

I want an androxus redesign he looks like a dumb edgy faggot. Especially those stupid blade horns.

>red hair green eye masterrace
>uninspired
you nignog

>earlier, mouse clicks weren't registering
>now the launcher pops up but the game won't run

Did the hotfix fuck things up for anyone else?

That is exactly what she is. She is a weeb whore that even moaned sexually on an e-sports events just because fans asked her to, of course they were just death screams from the characters everyone knows that right? :^)

>Fine what's a decent build for victor's rifle then?
grenadier 4 and everything else is pretty much up to you. firing stance and speed load are decent tho

TIME'S TICKING

Grohk is a technoshaman, which falls nicely into the game's sci-fi fantasy theme.
>evie not at least ok
I'll give you that, she's more interesting than Cassie or Skye.
>skye not shit tier (although maybe the kunai and elf thing save her, maybe?)
She's whatever. I almost forgot to include her on the list.

Who's the most mobile person here? Androxus?

That's the one I'm currently using. If you want more nade spam you can put one point from Scramble in Grenadier.

Evie

Evie. How is this even a question

>F

Evie by a large margin, then Andy and BK

Do I use scope a lot with that or do I just hip shoot and run around?

I'd swap Barik with Grover.

it doesn't reduce hipfire recoil or spread

I like this one.

>dominating with Ying
>at base for next round decide to spam her joke taunt and laugh VGCs as well as her slut B pose

>Fernando comes closer

>Viktor comes closer
>Woohoo!
>kinessa comes closer
>Its a Trap!
>They all add me after game
I think thats enough Ying for today

I don't like it because today I won a 3/4 - 0/4 game and it felt really good.

Scope for anything outside of shotgun range. Compensator works on Iron Sights only. That's why I put Firing Stance there, in order to be able to dodge while scoped.

are these edgy enough for the collage?

>Sees someone pick Pip
>Decided to tank as Fernando
>The fucking furfag never heal me once in a 15 minutes long game

How are those edgy in the slightest

It's never enough.

the upper one is edgy because thanatos. I dont know about the one below.

>No Kinessa

I agree at 3/0

But if it's 3/2 or maybe 3/1 they should be given a chance.

>CUM INTO MY CIRCLE
>mfw they dont cum into my circle

First one is edgy, second one I have no idea what it means.

Thanatos is the greek word for death. He is the grim reaper of greek mythology.

Thanatos is also the edgelord of SMITE.

Is opening boxes the only way to get Legendary cards?

>All these fucking spergs shitposting and not posting delicious Ying porn

What the fuck is wrong with you fucking homos?

thanatos is the greek god of death, I wasn't sure about the bottom one but it has an X and a Z so it looks kinda edgy imo.

...

There are no legendary cards. You can buy them all then rank them in your loadout. Boxes give absolutely nothing that can't be bought via gold, skins included. Wonder if voice packs are in them yet though.

>but it has an X and a Z so it looks kinda edgy imo.
kek

This is Thanatos from smite

>I seriously don't get putting any points into wormhole.

you can teleport up to somewhere, assassinate someone, and teleport out. Sometimes you need three shots to kill someone, but Wormhole I won't let you do that.

I don't understand why you guys are mocking Paladin's edgelord.

Aatrox mains in LoL are fun to laugh at because Aatrox is pretty shitty.
Reaper mains in Overwatch are fun to laugh at because Reaper is highly situational and he absolutely should not be chosen EVERY GAME, so he gets fucked a lot of the time

Androxus, on the other hand, is really solid. I don't think there is a bad time to choose him. He's really good.

>Veteran heals by 4% per second
Somehow I am not convinced it's just 4%

Are you retarded or just pretending?

Yeah I can kinda see putting one but any more than that just seem weird to me. One gives you the leeway you need by filling the area where blink would be on CD, but any after that is just overkill.

rank 2 is 6% and rank 3 is 12% i think

If you cant aim androxus is literally useless

Yes he is good, but the 12 years old that take him because he is dark like their soul aren't.

>Reaper is highly situational

I mean, you could've just told us you were a shitter...

Even Veteran I will vastly improve your out-of-combat healing, which can get you back in the fight sooner. It's why it's so good on Skye, since stealth lets her exit combat immediately.

You also have the natural ooc healing added on to it but yeah it does seem unnaturally fast.

Alright so I'm in the process of getting 12 of my champions to level 4 so that I can play competitive.

Can someone who has played competitive give me a little idea of what I'm getting into?

How does competitive differ from casual other than players take it more seriously? I used to play TF2 competitively for years so I know how competitive team based games work. But what aspects if any are different?

Is voice chat a thing?

Have certain maps been readjusted to fit competitive simplicity?

Is there a meta? Like are there certain champions that if not chosen, you will lose?

Is it still 5v5?

Thanks

remove Kinessa from the game please

Holy shit guys you're fucking retarded.

8% and 12%.
That's utter bullshit though considering just how huge the difference between no veteran and veteran 1 is. 4% max health on Makoko should be just a ~200 hp/second increase but the whole bar fills up in a blink once you buy the perk.

it's no different from casual

it is 4% + the normal regeneration

Well that's fuckin gay

>lol I was just baiting
>pretendingtoberetarded.flv

You take turns picking characters and no duplicate picks are allowed within both teams. Also there will be banning later on when there are enough characters in game.

One of the main reasons why I think that Paladins is better than Overwtach even though it's not fully developped is that Paladins' champions are always solid and viable. While Overwatch devs blindly believed that picking different heroes for "muh superior comp strategy" was a good idea, Hi Rez got it right and created a game where individual values, builds and team organization determined a good champion. And the results? Overwatch is an unbalanced, unfair game suitable to competitive wannabe babies, whereas Paladins is fun and glory of masterrace fps players.

Who are you quoting you fucking retarded chimp?

I'm not the edgelord who posted that stupid comparison you fucking retarded piece of shit.

>when there are enough characters in game
How many are they planning on adding

no, because as stated, you often need three shots to kill someone. Wormhole I only gives you two shots to work with.

>Kinessa: kill skye plz
oh my fuck
I thought it was a meme

>Amaterasu from SMITE

Reminder that THIS exists:
smite.gamepedia.com/Foxy_Amaterasu_voicelines

At least 4 more if the character menu is anything to go by.

Putting one point in = wormhole II.

Yeah, but that's still just a 200/s increase. It feels way too fast.
I guess I'll do some tests with a timer since it tickles my autism whether it's just perception bias or the numbers are off.

>Playing Kinessa or Cassie while the enemy team has Makoa AND Fernando

So it's just an auto-loss, right?

overwatch copy general

Yes, in case you're affected by Down syndrome or in case you can't aim.

>trying this hard

Cassie with Wrecker does work.

Cassie + Shield Wrecker

Why aren't you retards calling yourselves /pals/? Please show a little bit of respect to uber, he made this general 10 months before the vast majority of you even knew paladins existed.
