/palg/ - Paladins General

nth for 1 tank 2 healers is still a broken team comp you can't do anything against.

Hello lads, i'm from the /smgen/ and was about to try this out tonight. Who are good beginner champs to play as?

My team also had a Makoa and a Barik. Ying only stuck by me.

Kinessa and Viktor

the only thing broken are good players
nerf when?

4 points into that? Ow.

>Kinessa
delet this

Viktor, Fernando, Skye

thanks, is there a item or card system to build champs? I've never played Overwatch which is what this is always compared too so i'm pretty much a pug

>abusing game mechanics = being good

You have Loadouts created outside of matches by assigning hero-specific cards and in-match cards that boost certain traits.

who are you greentexting?

IF YOU JUST STARTED PLAYING THIS GAME AND FIND IT TOO EASY IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE MATCHED AGAINST BOTS UNTIL YOU REACH LEVEL 5

(You)

oh okk, last question. Is PaladinDecks good? I don't want to keep asking to be spoonfed.

Skye is not a good beginner character

I'm pretty sure Skye's ult vertically reaches the skybox so not even thrust will do it

Just make something up your own. Enjoy the lack of muh meta. There is no way of knowing what is good short of trying it out. Everyone is shit at this point just make your own deck

if you seriously need to netdeck in a first person shooter turn off your computer and go outside
find heroes that work well for you and then make your own loadouts that play to your strengths with them, there's only 4 cards per section, it's not difficult to figure out what'll be good for you
and if you're wrong and it doesn't work for you then figure out what part isn't working and replace it with something else

Why are all makoas I run across so bad

Maybe Makoa is just bad

It's hard for them to come out of their shell

Alright, i don't care for the meta I just don't want to build shit items
I just don't want to be shit m8, I haven't even played the game yet I just want to get a grasp of it before I jump in

>Are they trying to cap and failing?
Then it's because Makoa more than any other Frontliner needs another Frontliner to help him out.

>Are they just being retarded?
Then the player is just retarded.

Slow and steady wins the race

Massive scrub detected

Just take cover.

Massive faggot detected.

Here's a breakdown of why Makoa is bad:
>he is slower than any other frontliner
>his movement skill actually take him way too far, it takes forever to walk back to where he was
>dredge anchor pulls enemies toward you so unless there's a buddy nearby or you're off cap you're turned an uncontested objective into a contested one
>he moves even slower with his shield deployed and can't attack either
>his weapon has a slow fire speed, slow reload speed, short range, AND a nasty damage drop-off based on range
>his ult is extremely unreliable

Can't take cover, I'm too slow. Drogoz is the dragon, in case you don't know. His flying into the air ability doesn't propel him high enough to get out of the way.

I feel like salvo doesn't actually damage shields more than regular shots. Am I just a gay retard?

Dear every person who instalocks Ying. Stop playing Ying. You can't play Ying. Every match instantly becomes 4 v 5 because of you.

use what you should already be using to sanic around the map raining unholy death from above with - Propel IV

Use It's to propel you forward so you can clear walls and buildings. Break line of sight, don't run away, just don't have a line of sight between yourself and the bomb.

Yeah no, part of being good is being able to determine what works and how to get the best out of it. Even if you just have more fun doing other things, knowing what's best and how to play with or against it goes a long way.

no
*double peace sign*

because they don't land sick hooks on skyes and vladimirs

>forward distance
stop being a huge fucking faggot, please
you should already be using this god tier card

kys nigger

upvoted

Makoa isn't great as a solo tank, unless they have two supports healbotting them. Fernando > all.

ebin :^)

Hide behind the payload.

>fish market
>makoa and nando obviously premade
>not even on the objective
>just going around the map as a pair hunting flankers and damage
>it works
>they win
honestly terrifying

Let me help you with your problem, friend.

Because you have run into me yet.

what if she puts it on the payload?

He needs his team around him to kill whoever he hooks and contest the point as a team, kind of the reason the shield is a dome but yeah if hes a solo frontliner good luck contesting with a team that's not anywhere near the point.

He's probably going to get another buff aswell fine by me though I love hooking those sweet Evies and Drogozz out of the air like frogs at a fish market

yfw there will be a frog skin

with a Canadian French accent

Most skyes won't because most skyes aren't that smart. Also the payloads box is busted so its pretty difficutly to hop on it at times, especially if a big bodied character is hugging it.

Also, even if she's invis, if you don't notice a skye trying to hop on your payload to ult it and you don't kill her, you deserve to get gassed.

>implying Cauterize I will be enough to counter two healers
>implying they won't have Haven III and Chronos III by the time you have enough gold to buy Cauterize III
go fuck yourself

>30% more CDR doing anything against -90% healing

Here's another tip for you, my underdeveloped friend.
Try killing healers before going for a tank. It's a pretty new, gamebreaking concept, that not many people know about.

>dredge anchor is bad because it pulls people toward you
holy shit, what the fuck am I reading

...

>killing healers
Woah, why didn't I think about it earlier? I never tried that before! You're so clever my anime girl reaction image posting friend.

>he can't git gud
simply epic

So lately, I've gotten into playing as Fernando like a retard. Because it turns out that is the best way to play him.

>Deck is full of speed buffs.
>Get the movement speed item too.
>Ignore the point unless all of your team is dead.
>Pick one enemy champion and chase them all game long (if it's a healer, get cauterize later).
>Outrun Viktor's sprint with your speed buffs.
>Outrun Drogos's ult with speed buffs.
>Be an insufferable shield whore until your health regens.
>If all of your team IS dead, see above. Do it until they respawn.

>spectating an Evie on your team

>probably doesn't even have wormhole

every single time

Spotted the healslut.

>watching some level 30 diamond fernando
>literally just flanks the entire enemy team and chases DPSs all game, leaving me as support to push the payload while he camps their spawn

sounds about right

Let's repeat what we've learned here today

1) Buy Cauterize as your first item
2) Ask your teammates to buy Cauterize
3) Kill healers first
4) Be nice to people

Do I have a problem /palg/ or is just the normal effect from her?

...

That sounds so crazy it might actually work.

>1)
>Check

>Nope, I wanna buy agression! :^)
Yeah.

>need 1200 gold to get 10% attack power
>300 gold neutralizes it

When will people stop being dumb

this is from a doujin right, this isn't a real page?
did this meme manga even end yet

It's good on some heroes like Evie

Or
>Get your teammates to buy Cauterize
>buy aggression for yourself
>get all the kills
>pop your time bomb for sick pentas all game
>get top damage every game by massive margin

Is from the manga itself, a special that came out with the last volume and yeah Boku Girl ended while ago, Mizuki finally realize her feelings and choose to stay as a girl while Takeru confess to her. You can even see Mizuki in full girl mode with a dress and long hair going in a date with Takeru.

>playing Cassie
>there's a Skye on the enemy team

do I go haven or illumination

I can only meme on her half the time, the other half I can't land shit and she kills me.

SOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURCE

top kek

Maybe I'm retarded, but is there a reason why people buy Aggression? Is the 5-15% damage increase going significantly change the number of shots it takes to kill someone?

>Newfag can't use sourcenao

Some people get it for the early game advantage because the other team didn't get Haven.

So, what do you do with the rocket boots or evasion stuff like that? Seems like you can run backwards and press them and if you're turning your aim around to do a dash, you're generally dead.

You forgot to copy paste the clones

But that's not how math works, buddy. Let me help you.

Assume that my basic attack is 1200

Now with aggression I'm dealing 1320 to you.

Oh no! You've bought Heaven! Now I'm doing 1188 instead of 1080.

I'm still doing more damage to you and you're still going down in two shots.

>BEHOLD THE DRAGON'S FURY!

also most underrated hero

Tell that to Androxus.
If it takes so long to spin your camera around that you die, it's time to change your mouse sensitivity.

Dont play around that time in EU at 6 am

Retards, retards everywhere

>Behold, the Dragon's a furry!

>Behold, th-

can you get two cards of the same type? for example: a guide im reading says to get chronos then nimble, but they are both yellow cards. is the guide shit?

wouldn't it be a scally though?

BEHOLD

Salvo is the worst ability in the game.
