I want to be held in Fernando's arms!

And with his buff, he can give you his warmth from even further now!

Who volunteers to leave?

Screencap this.
Princess/Lian will be a Trap.

This fucking game

This is Ying.
She is my wife.

Last thread lasted a lot less than others, relatively speaking, but it was to be expected with the patch notes.
Contrary to that, however, is my love for my beautiful wife, which is everlasting! After all, how could it not be? She is the cutest and most adorable girl anyone could ask for, and I feel incredibly lucky to be able to spend the rest of my life with her.

What's the best Lex card? Death hastens sounds the best on paper imo

Ye that's the best one

Would it be retarded to buy him now? I've been having a blast playing him for free weekend, but he's been out for so long his price drop should be around the corner right?

Are you willing to wait 2 weeks for a maybe? You can make those 2.5k in nothing.

They abandoned any pretense of having a regular schedule for dropping prices. It's impossible to predict when it will happen, if it ever will.

The EARLIEST it could happen is 3 weeks from now and even that's laughably small odds.

You need to wait when the hook starts to pull actually towards you because the hitboxes are bit wonky, it was a bug before as well

>shield that doesn't stop you from shooting

I was fine being big boy tank before but I guess I actually wanted to be tough mommy frontline.

We have no idea when hi-rez will lower champion prices, they got rid of the system where a champion's price would be lowered 2 weeks after their release. Now they just lower prices on whoever they feel like whenever they feel like. Think it's been a couple patches since any champion had a price reduction

>>stop playing four months ago
you should continue not playing

didn't even get a summer skin

lol

It's too late, there's no turning back now.

She gets even tougher in the next patch, user.
Also Nando is slowly crawling out of the gutter.

I saw the notes, I'm looking forward to it! As far as Nando goes, I am hoping he gets better but I don't feel like I'll want to play him at this point. Ash just seems better overall and her kit is a lot more fun.

>She gets even tougher in the next patch, user.
wrong

Our love doesn't rely on something as vapid as skins.

but that's wrong
her blast radius is reduced, though her range is increased.

Wow, the summer chest is actually decent. I had 14/22 things in it already, it's only 50, and you get one for free. Having the random grover weapon in it is bullshit, but at least it's not a huge loss.

It's a small reduction, you can still do those juicy shots around the corner or above the shield.

Wouldn't that make it better for people hitting their shots? It'll be a damage increase on their end, but I suppose it is a nerf to spreading caut easily.

>lost 100 elo from 3k last night because the MM at night is horrendous for obvious reasons
>slowly win it back today

I need to stop playing at night but it's only time I can play

nop
your shots are just gonna zoom past that shield or hit into a wall because of the range increase
it's fucking stupid since she's supposed to be a close range bully

wait, we get one roll for free? nice

noob here
how do I get git gud

I like tyra

you point your crosshair at the baddies and you click until they die.

This patch has some other champion is supposed to be X but now we changed it stuff. Torvald with his shield, and also Seris with her projectile it's really fast and small now killing her little area denial shtick

Good morning friends!

Don't forget they reduced the distance from marked targets for the rmb, so you have to be right in there for it to work.

release me from this mortal coil

>played lex last night
>repeatedly solo'd by one of 3 tanks on opposing team
Is that supposed to happen?

Torvald's fine, he still has a lot of shield and now he's not completely worthless at late game.

>cant manage distance
Lol, git gud

thats what im doing and I do ok in casual but how do i pro

>he still has a lot of shield
no he doesn't

It's free if you win an onslaught match.

Aim and shoot. Throw Molotov on the objective whenever you can. Basically it.

Im of the opinion characters like tyra shouldn't even be in the game. It's like all the hitscan weapons they added to Tribes all over again.

I got a diamond pip after my first 5 or so comp games

is that good?

Even Cuckus has more on a lower CD, right?

So, I'm downloading the PTS but something happened and now it's stopped at 90.0%. What I do?

Wait, really, you need to wait, shouldn't be longer than 2 hours

This isn't Tribes. I like it that there are characters that are easier to use. Without it they will have a lot less player.

ruckus does have 1k more but his cd is 2 seconds higher if you don't take cards to reduce it

So it's still downloading on the background? Fug.

Something like it, i'm not sure, but on ash pts i waited around 1~2 hours till the progress bar begin to move

>can hit thinjgs with tyras gun while blindfolded
>maldambas heal requires me to actually aim

wtf

Task Manager says it's not dowloading anything. Guess I'll have to unistall and install again.

are you me?

Somehow it finished updating exactelly when I was going to uninstall it. Well, good I guess.

>press g on pts to admire Ruckus' miniguns
>nothing happens
Disappointing.

nice shill post

If you have a taste for tough but caring dom women we might be, user.

Is Seris dead?

>he wants everything for free but also wants games to exist
>he probably also hates communism

What makes you think so? Have you seen her rate of fire on pts? It's a fucking machine gun.

>single best healer in the game
>keeps getting buffs because lo-rez is dumb
why would she be dead?

It's the same reason I main Zarya in overwatch.

>Paladins.exe refuses to launch now
Well, I guess HR really don't want me to play their game anymore.

the idea behind her design is dead, but she's stronger because of it

Casual queue would be immensely improved if you could see the enemies picks.

So, just like Torvald?

Hi-Rez literally playing porn music to entice people to watch their stream. On top of supposedly """"""giving"""""" people free shit for watching.

yes

It's almost time!

>You have unlocked 3 radiant chests!
>Only have 1
sasuga lo-rez

I got the cassie skin last week :^)

I can't wait till the new patch comes out almost everyone feels just plain better to play now on PTS.

>Timber Mill

I'm ready to not get any rewards like always

>solo ult kinessa as evie
>she still gets away and nearly kills your tank
creativs pls

I've just checked my HiRez account and it said I had it linked with Twitch, but the username was blank. Never got any rewards before, but now reset the link and it says my Twitch username there so we'll see now. Maybe it's the same for you.

I want PrettyHair and Raynday to stop bullying Laizy.

Ying is such a lovely and nice girl,
I want to fill her womb with my baby batter while she makes this face

I bet she likes it when men nibble on her ears. Filthy elf slut.

Anything interesting in the first game of this set?

Kinessa won against two flankers.

soft
ear
bite

She aint a slut but she was definitely made for breeding

>kinessa got carried
Fixed 4 U

>Holt getting angrier and angrier in the chat

Nah dude, it's bonkar. He's a really good Kinessa.
Though I admit that GankStars played around him to enable some plays.

Lol, fug him

i'm convinced that my accounts are somehow actually not linked to twitch even though it shows that they are indeed linked.

i have 2 seperate twitch and paladins accounts and they are linked and i watch twitch with them for like 4-5 hours a day. for the past week i haven't won a radiant chest or crystals or anything from the loot bot. is it just fucking bugged or something or am i actually just that unlucky that i've never won a tournament skin or ANYTHING at all? i got the ying mirror on both of my accounts so is the system just busted? does it only give out stuff to people who have been linked for a certain amount of time?

>u will never be as tanned as GabeM
>u will never go on a trip to the beach with him and Fernando

>Gankstars decide on who second place goes to

Will we be witnessing the first game fixing of paladins?

You're really unlucky. I got a radiant chest once and many other anons got it too. It's just that hard to get anything, really.

>someone said on chat right now (in portuguese) that him got a chest
Fug.

Last week I didn't get nothing, but I was getting stuff before. You are probably unlucky.

The only projectile speed increase I'm looking forward to is Makoa's

Take that back.
Take that back right now.

The stream numbers have jumped significantly recent. I've been watching these events since HRX and I just assume I won't get shit, those randoms who won't watch after they get the skin? Day 1

>uncordinated seris ult
Pro players, i swear

The pressure they must be feeling right now is insane, facing the best team in the game for a LAN spot would drive most peoples heart rates through the roof.
