I want to smooch Fernando's forehead!

>& SMITE
just stop this meme

HOTFIX WHEN
FERNANDO IS KILLING ALL MY HEALSLUTS

THESE THREADS ARE MOVING TOO FAST

also new category needed, ruckus and grohk should be part of it

The flanks will rise again!

they're his healsluts now

they make my dick rise

yeah buck is pretty hot

Is it possible to get banned cause bronze shitters can't get over my awesome Strix flicks?

I reinstalled Smite, played 2 games and uninstalled it

First for loli champ in paladins!

>lo rez patches skye to early OB level again
One can only hope we will never see such hell again

they always were

My thread.

second

why aren't there more paladins lewds

Because you didn't commission any.

literally each and everyone of the characters are pure saints that has never even had a sinful thought enter their minds

the real reason is that you didn't pay up and placed some commissions

>calibrated into Silver I
>first promos get me into Gold IV
>second place me straight into Plat IV
Am I that good or the system is fucked up?

>pick strix
>last second change to Makoa
>enemy team has seris and strix
>buy ilum
TREMBLE BEFORE ME!

Yeah but why does overwatch get them (free) when they're the worst characters in gaming history?
Or is kaplan paying for all of them?

Skye actually is already pretty decent. They just need to make that bonus 500 damage apply on any invisibility not only from hidden and she's going to be one of the best flankers on horizontal maps.

I'm this "" close to paying for lewd Ash where she's acting girly and submissive

Anyone can ve platinum, system is kind of fucked and you played a literal broken champ.

don't bother

Cool. Is it as easy to reach Diamond?

>Lex and Kinessa's weapons from 2 chests
I wanted Viktor's but this is pretty good.

My cancer was less-painful than casual mode, right now. Why does the matchmaking system feel the need to pair me with bads against stacked teams?

>500 free damage
>throw smoke
>another 500 free damage
As if she wasn't cancerous enough, skye must never be viable.

>be me
>have aimbot
>open up paladins for the first time in months
>new update
>new champion
>mfw creaming plebs with my aimbot

Because it believes in you, user. It believes you can overcome any odds stacked against you so long as you have the chance to try.

Yes, you win like 20 points per win and lose 10 or less

See you in Diamond then!

what are the rewards for ranking up?

Skye will always be scrub now that there enough picks to skillshot her.

But early beta skye was cancer due to here ult being a payloadwipe.

Everlasting happiness.

not worth it

Can you still get the Makoa skin once you hit level 30?

I'm pretty close, but im not sure if thats still going on.

>get hit with caut
>doesn't go away the entire rest of the game
>even dying or staying out of combat doesn't remove it

Hi-Rez please

its not the same thing though: overwatch keeps buffing and nerfing the exact same things ( you Must be aware of roadhog's ballad) while ignoring serious issues (for example, maps being pure shit). I honestly don't know if this is "I have no idea what i'm doing" (they've had over a year to figure out how to develop a shooter so its a tad unlikely) or if they are fucking with the game on purpose because they know the community is mostly too retarded to know any better.

This doesn't happen in paladins. I won't say that things are always changed for the better, but it isn't an endless loop or shit (otherwise we' still have damage ying and front line grohk), things actually change, the game actually evolves.

it's the fujos, basically.

Every 5 games I run a mile, do 50 sit ups, a 30 second plank and 25 push ups. If I lose 3/5 I do 20 burpees too.

You have no excuse. Become the Buck.

Is anyone elses game lagging like hot garbage too? It was fine earlier today

Ash is the best girl
This is now official

>Become the Buck.
But I'm already autistic, user.

You may not think that she is the cutest, and that's OK.
This doesn't change the fact, however, that she embodies perfection in my eyes, she is my beautiful wife and I wouldn't want it any other way.

hmm, you might actually get away with this considering the queue times

Only until the loli support comes out.

But when it goes live, as far as I am concerned you still can pick Strix in comp, I think.

I don't even know what half of that is.

That's if the smoke or health triggered stealth works for it.

If all of them can, that could be interesting.

>tfw I just bullied someone this way
I felt bad after, and apologized that i didn't know the hotfix had not gone live yet.
I counted on it having not, because I needed my free box roll

I can't right now, that's a good thing, fuck stealth characters.

what if they redesign her as a loli? a cute one that uses magic to lift her huge canon

Yeah, she looks perfect last night in my bed.

Yeah, I went from silver 2 to Gold 4 yesterday, I think if your good you move up quickly

>win game
>get put in a team full of retards lagging out like crazy because they won't stay on latam servers vs a team full of semi-competent shitters
>lose game
>get put on team full of semi-competent shitters vs a team of lagging latam monkeys

HELLO
LO REZ
THIS ISN'T GOOD MATCHMAKING

t. Grohk

Well the other flanks can just fly, jump, or zoom away.

Getting to your enemy is all about the same with all the flanks, but Skye has issues getting away since she usually blew her better stealth to get to you and the next stealth that she has is short term, IE smoke or trigger.

I half feel like matchmaking would be improved by randomly shuffling everyone it placed into a match.

I actually kind of miss the roll-over matches of overwatch. But really, winning a match doesn't actually feel like an accomplishment majority of the time, just feels like you're either playing against bots or the bots are on your team.
This problem shouldn't exist for a game this popular.

Someone tell me why I should or shouldn't play Maeve. I don't normally like twitchy characters, I prefer to play supports or tanks, and I always do shitty with flanks, though I've had some good games with Lex.

Is Maeve actually God tier in the right hands or is she just the genji meme character?

All flanks are poor this patch, seriously just go cassie as a damage dealer with flanking capabilities (e.g cassie) if you really like that sort of gameplay.

You shouldn't until (if) they rework her, she's bottom tier right now, not worth your time.

>9 free chests for fwotd during this weekend
Can't wait for the inevitable losing streak.

>flanks are poor this patch
>this patch

no matter how good you are with her you're always better off picking a different champ, she's so weak.
you should play her anyway though cause she's cute.

Spaniards are actual subhuman trash, I've always claimed this, I've always knew it. There's no online game that's not infested with this internet cancer.

>Is Maeve actually God tier
maybe in your silver elo

I received two code green chests from charity stream, but can't access them. Also, notice I'm missing my summer chest as well. Is this a bug?

Strix one shots her with headshot out of stealth.
I thought Lex was suppose to be good now?

>got accused of being a cheater by a 0 lvl Strix
jesus I should stop getting good because it will get me banned

Grohk is really good, if only you could convince your teammates to pick a healer.

1v1 me and we will see how "good" you are..

what the fuck happened to this general? so many shit memes

>cant pick gro first because then no one else goes support
>literally have to pick strix and then switch last minute for it to happen
LOREZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Should I get Half shell Makoa or Direct current Torvald?pls respond

What do you mean?

Were you a Lex at the time and was it Splitstone quarry?

>"wtf grohk?"
>"I'm staying in spawn gg"

Torvold.

Really depends on how you play, But I use prefer Torvold to Makoa.

If you're planning on diving as torvald, DC is a good way to go.

I'm not bragging. I use "heal flicking" when playing Jenos so it looks like I'm using an aimbot.

had a vik flip the fuck out because i pulled that stunt
he wanted owlboy so bad but HE COULDN'T EVEN LAND ANY KILLS ON VIKKY
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Pluck Makoa.

Then it's an ignorant fool and an asshole.

I need to play torvald to find out how to beat him because right now he can just sit on point and shield all day, He's more of a sponge than fernando

I haven't played in a while and now everyone has a stealth skill what the fuck.
I had to pick Skye and hide behind boxes or around the corner just to ambush those fags. I spent the entire match just hunting the archer, the bird sniper and the guy with the sword, I even had to nuke them twice.

>new gaymers actualy believe this
even without wrecker you can wreck that old pervert.

You'd think so but then he generates 5000 health worth of shield every second

giv job

With stryx release, every game is a gamble on whether we get absolutely stomped or we stomp. Worst release since fucking sha lin.

its stacks at 2 k, my dude
>b-but loadouts
>m-more time charging
just shoot him, fags like you destroyed him.

>visit Paladins.com
>click on champions
>pick a champion
>it's a dead link
where's the lore nerds, you told me there would be lore

not yet

You havent even met the hell that is turkish players if you think spanish players are bad

if you get like seven to nine kills under a minute the game kicks you from the match.

Dude just keep yor distance, buy wrecker, shoot him.

oh
really?
