I want to feel Fernando's arms wrapped around my waist!

Excited for tomorrow's teaser.

I want Fernando poster to feel the ban hammer

>not an actual owl
FUCK THIS GAY EARTH

looks like jenos tbqh

Why is competitive so completely fucked? It either has a metric fuckton of bugs or some little faggot released a hack that rapes the game to death

...

He got buffs in OB 55, 54, 53 and 52.
Lo-rez obviously want him to stay OP.

>tfw Fernando might get a Maeve treatment tomorrow

You say that like it's a bad thing
I don't see how people can complain about auto-aim abilities when that piece of shit can shoot a fireball in a random direction and hit half the enemy team because it has hitboxes the size of a small continent

>getting another useless hero in the game is okay
Think about what you are saying, nerfs are okay, overnerfs not.

here's your threadly reminder to report this faggot.

Skin for Jenos this early?

>expecting an actual owl instead of some normal dude with owl-themed abilities
were you not here for maeve's reveal?

at that time everybody had hope, hell, we even got attached to an ideal Willo

Only some people run barick shield boots but it's not on every build, how come?

>fantastic mobility on demand
>good, accurate hitscan damage rapid fire
>easy, effective stun and lift that many characters cannot counter
>easy, long lasting heals placed at no risk to himself
>every legendary is good, giving him either a free kill each grab, better team damage, or strong burst heals
>basically no bad cards granting him life rip, self heal right click, damage reduction, better mobility, automatic reloads, reveal on left click, etc etc
>more durable and mobile than most damages and flanks
>situationally powerful ult like torvald
>extremely easy to play
I don't care if he's new, Jenos is completely overpowered and needs a nerf
If your new character immediately becomes a top pick with great stats in every higher level comp match something is wrong

i just want another cool beast champion. why is that so much to ask?

This..i kind of agree with you, but according to people that makes me a shitter bronze subhuman

I want a pic of maeve stretching like a cat and licking her inner thigh leg sticking up in the air

>game finds a ranked match after 3 minutes
>YOUR TURN TO P-
>kicked from the match
>DESERTER
nice game palababs

QUOTE O OP, VIVA NA EXCELÊNCIA!

Wew the differences in item tiers make this snowbally as fuck

I hope this is card art because it looks like a shitty Jenos.

I love Ash. Like, I know there's a Yingposter and Fernandoposter, but I show my love for my beautiful valkyrie on the field of battle. I want to nurture and protect her and fight valiantly alongside her. To slowly break down the walls of her hardened heart not through a reckless charge, but to chip away slowly but surely, like a calculated siege.

Her character is juuust the right level of self aware edginess, not quite DEATH AWAITS U ALL THIS IS MY OF BLOODREAPER DONUT STEEL. She's cute and sensible, she's attractive and fit. She is the wall against which her enemies break, she is the battering ram for her allies.

I love her, /palg/.

how do I get good with her? I tend to babysit the point. I try to push tanks and punish flanks, I try to fire around corners and above obstacles, I'm actually getting good at firing just above Fernando's shield to hit him with the splash damage. But how can I get good enough to truly win her love?

She's a massive bully, user. Use that to your advantage-keep enemies from contesting, but watch your positioning, and be careful not to charge into a situation you can't walk out of.

>tfw ash will never bully your enemies away from you

>babysiting the point
Thats where you are wrong, kiddo. Well, in casual you tend to be the only tank, so thats kind acceptable, Ash is made for aggression, dive their support and fuck that fag up, then turn around and chase the flank that thinks he can mess with your healslut. Since her range was increased, hit the floor to get trick shots and deal 200 dmg at least. You need that shoulder bash cd reduction.

I wish I played with more people who got that tanks don't need to sit on the point while everyone else goes to fight.

>she'll never bully you afterwards for being weak and say that you need some special training while her pupils turn into hearts

>Ash is a bully
>but a good hearted bully, an anti-bully, one that protects you like said

I didn't think I could love her any more, but here we are.

I do tend to miss my shoulder charge sometimes and get stuck balls deep in the enemy backline. Sometimes I can weasel out, sometimes I can't. Is it just me and my shitty connection or is there a problem with a hit not registering and getting rubber banded to bumfuck nowhere miles from the objective when I CLEAELY SHOULD HAVE SHOULDER CHARGED THAT FUCKING MAKOA OFF FROG ISLE FUCK YOU HI-REZ

I like to play ash when I feel like doing 5v1's

Who else here thinks grohk is the best thing that happened to paladins?

>stick-thin girl who wears armor, pretends to be a badass, and has an ult involving jumping and a flag

B R A V O LO-REZ

kys

Based Hi rez, always delivers

If I'm 4 manned, we usually go bully spawn and leave the shitter who instalocked Skye to push the payload by themselves.

>torvald ban

>Torvald banned

Not until we get Mahou Shoujo Grohk-chan skin.

Why is there only 1 ban per team?

DRAWFAGS. ASSEMBLE.

I wish I could get them to do it. Usually Skyes just go die.

don't have enough champions to do more then that

>server shits itself every time there is a tourney
really makes you think

yes

Happens to me too, specially when inara uses her mother grace, i just go through, dont even know if i did damage or not. If they use some movement ability its like i teleported iin the direction i charged, they too seem undamaged

Beautiful.

do i even wanna know

what

What, in Wekonos name, is this?

Our standards were just too high for willo. The design we got was fine but they fucked up the portrait pose so hard that everyone was disappointed before they saw her ingame.

I mean, look at the difference:

How do you even fuck up this hard?

She really lacks survivability on the point, and she cant even fight back depending on the range. Truly made for close up Bully

>don't go double tank
>lose
huh

>double tank
>not triple tank

wait, willo already has a mastery skin? wtf lo rez?

>be main support
>everybody call you names and slurs because you're not "doing anything"
>the second you die, everybody in your team dies
>lose the point instantaneously
huh

>our banner picks Andro
>their banner picks kinessa
g-guys am I qualifying into Bronze

>7337
Almost leet

...

>silver
literally brain dead

>lock the 3 broken pieces of shit known as fernando, cassie and lian
>enemy team doesn't want to fall for the tank meta meme
>win with no effort
really makes you think

It's from a previous thread, though I did request the Lex as an Imperial Guard.

I want to see a picture of Lex holding Maeve's head like that one meme image of the black guy holding the white girl from BLACKED, only because I think it's be fucking hilarious and not for any fucking weird reason, but nobody will believe that and will knee-jerk reactionarily shitpost.

Just out of curiosity, which server you are on?

D:

>silver

>losing against kinessa
Nigga, is your whole team letting her shoot them like some kind of masochists?

>hahaha, porn conotation is funny
Palababs?

>they fell for the frames meme

I gave up on playing support. No matter how well you do, people whine because apparently every healer makes you able to go 1v5 without needing to do anything.
>makoa whines about healing
>won't help protect me, instead just shields when flanks are in my face
>he keeps grumbling angrily over mic about it
>have to mute him so i don't laugh

>sha lin
Why not go full meme and pick kinessa at that point?

>two dropped matches in a row

Hi-Rez please

We won 4-0, I was just confused by these shit picks

>bugzy is a tank main now
Wew.

i need to buy more loot chests, yellow hair a cute

>enemy ying out heals Seris and Jenos put together
>gets mad when I spam needs healing

>play nando
>dmg dosent damage and flank dosent get kills
>have to stand at the point getting shot on from all sides
>say fuck it
>go in for kills and get rid of their damage and flank
>whole team constantly shits on me for not staying at point like a tard
>end up carrying the whole team while scrubs say i should be reported
Sometimes i really think i should say fuck it and just stop picking tanks

>lian's autoaim now has a maximum range of 50ft for it to lock on
did i just fix lian?

Sadly I don't have but I hope I'll get it soon since I like the way it looks with the Ronin armor.

>Lian's autoaim is removed
i just fixed lian

1 healer will usually outheal 2 healers

make it 10 ft and you have a deal

>leviathan makoa

My girl is the cutest!
My love for her transcends belief. I want to be at her side for as long as my life allows me.
I feel honoured everyday to be able to call her my wife.

>playing Skye

I think I may have figured out your problem.

>open up game
>chests are costing 35 crystals due to sale
Fuck, danm jews

I find it easier to play around a champion after i've played them

Tell your wife to stop shattering her fucking illusions in the middle of a headlight because they're trying to be LE EBIN MANLY YING HURR DURR I READ A GUIDE ON HOW 2 YING AND NOW I SHATTER AS SOON AS MY ILLUSIONS ARE OUT, HEALING FUCKING NO ONE LOL

Anytime I see someone take resonance. About 90% of the time they're using thay exact deck and are almost always shitters.

>team full of cc fuckers
it sorta makes sense

>make lian's rmb a shotgun with huge cone
>her dash does not deal damage
i think you and i fixed lian

>yet another 4-0 game
Are pros even trying?

It makes a sort of shifting balance as a match goes on I enjoy, early game supports and front lines reign supreme but if wrecker and cauterize can be built up the damage and flank become dominant

>up against stuns: the team
>no resilience to be found because caut is so important you can't buy anything else
nice game palatards

>missing on bonus damage from pluck or easy shielding from half-shell instead of just buying resilience

>back to the old Gankstars vs D69
Where the fuck is WASD?

>Fashion doesn't have to massively affect your performance, you can stay effective...

>use ult
>cant use ult anymore because cced
>giving up haven and blast shields so that instead of being stunned, you can get raped by bombkings bombs and wrecker

Stop picking her in comp when Jenos, Seris and based snek are available. Or I will have to sell her back to Zhin.

1 shitty healer shouldn't out heal 2 good healers when you add the two good healers amount together.
>he doesn't buy items in the order of cost
Found your problem

which team is my nigga mustypenis in?
