I want to take Fernando's hand in marriage!

>I really enjoyed Paladins in closed beta cb29 and before that. The game was very unique back in closed beta and took a lot more skill to outplay the enemy.

>Nowadays you can just get 2 shotted by some random low level new player just because his champion does a lot of damage not because he hits you with multiple shots in a row. Game lost almost all it's unique aspects and outplay potential to appeal the mainstream Team-Shooter game community.

>Personally I hate it and that's why Paladins has become just a job, not a game I enjoy playing anymore

>If there’s one thing you could change about Paladins, what would it be?
>I’d change the TTK (Time To Kill) back to what it used to be before CB30. Where you had to hit multiple burst shots in a row in order to get a kill, allowing you to outplay your enemies regardless of your health.

I miss being able to toggle viewmodels in TF2
Valve a shit but at least they gave you options of trashbins to roll around in. With Hi-Rez, you're stuck with one particularly smelly dumpster filled with used syringes and condoms.

Threadly reminder.

>I miss being able to toggle viewmodels in TF2
But you can still do that?
Unless they changed it in an update in the last 2 or 3 months

NA is truly playing the game as vanilla as they can
Inara point tanks half shield makoa's not very niche picks and usually balanced comps did they ever play 3 tanks?

To solve this once and for all

>low ttk is not possible without tank meta
please kys

If Sha Lin is so overpowered how come he wasn't picked yesterday when EU played?

I mean I miss the feature when playing Paladins.

Just a simple reminder this time because of the tournament commotion, to reassure you that she is my perfect soulmate and we will remain together despite the lies some individuals here try to diffuse. There is absolutely no one in this world that I love more than her.

EU meta has shifted towards really divey low TTK teams with luminary jenos and field study torv. Even makoa was not prioritized yesterday as much as before.

>being this mad

The arabian sounds when he enters planted trigger EUcucks ptsd of all the rapefugees

next community choice costume will be slutty Ying

...

...

Yet yesterday is full of 3 tanks meme.

Hey that image of Ying is actually not dreadful. Nice.

>being this wrong
Shoo, FPSlet

and 3 tanks can dive because tanks in this game are retarded DPSs with high healthpool
although sha lin has good tank busting potential if a tank gets in his face espicially someone like ash he cant survive that. ash can shoot him out of stealth easily.
sha lin is good against squishies like lian and andro

lol

REAL ESPORT SCENE

So, them breaking things with an update can only be solved/fixed/prevented by demanding them to add more gems to the daily login bonus?

even tumblr makes more sense, and they think fernando is gay.

doesn't league and dota do the same thing though?

This is sad to watch desu

g2 is a league above everyone on NA
EU still has competition between 3 teams and VP has the meme pick god simsiloo

youtube.com/watch?v=R_43mRioN20

I just play the game, my dude, thats all, literally thats all, i just play my shit and do my shit and have 'fun', thats about it

Good then

rework grohk

who 8/8 here?

>1.1k
I would edit the brendan frasier hair on martini, but it's just too pitiful

Man, I wish they would show Kus more, because he was all over the place. Really different from the EU's 'healslut pushes the payload' thing.

Do we receive the rewards for correct picks now that the week is over?

tomorrow

Peak viewers yesterday: 2.7k
Peak viewers today: 1.8k

This looks much more interesting than generic orc shaman.

Americans are at Church on Sundays.

we are actually busy at neopet conferences

>generic human is more interesting than generic orc shaman
Or it could be neither of them are good designs.

NaVi and RNG really had me worried there but they made it.

>navi vs rng
what?

No.

What are you trying to imply?

>and

why doesnt it tell me to choose my character any more?

why does it always have to wait until the timer runs out before it goes to the next person to pick?

when you think other person is retarded but you are the retard yourself

But keep the voicepack the same.

This, I actualy lost TP because I tabbed out and missed my turn to pick, this has been happening since last patch.

There are 2 close matches dip shit.

This is a biased poll. Anyone who likes low TTK is probably too stupid to read all that text.

okay you are the retard now

in competitive? the first pick is always a single player, the rest of the picks are in pairs.

This is Scylla, terror of the deep, say something nice about her!

Lex is going to be the new Maeve in terms of people botching about him.

*bitching

Remember that next week when the viewer count is way up it's because HiRez is putting the stream on the main menu ingame.

>they bitch and moan about his dps buff
>time to buff him

Paladins's ttk is a little low now but a ttk that's too high is retarded.

Borderlands feels shit in the later game because everything is a bullet sponge and nothing fucking dies.

Closed beta was shit and if you think Paladins would get anywhere near the amount of success that it has had if it was released like that for open beta, you're delusional.

eh. I agree, but only to an extent. TTK is a very fragile thing. Too high & the game becomes boring due to the slow pace. Too low & the game feels trivial & casual.
I definitely think they need to scale TTK up a bit, since some of the champions have ridiculous burst dps potential, but the important thing is making sure it isn't too high OR too low. Really, his main complaint seems to be that skill has less importance now, but raising the TTK by alot isn't a good way of solving that issue.

>Still has awful damage with extreme fall off
>Spam accuracy still bad enough where longish to mid range is worthless
>Maeve still has no fall off and self sustain out the ass and a spamable ult that changes team fights

I liked that CB had no dedicated healers, but that probably helped make TTK so low.

Reminder that Fernando is a severed human head on a mechanical full body suit

I'm still trying to understand what they changed to Lex
this nigga went from Miss 1 shot to miss nothing?

Time to kill was way higher in early closed beta, and there was no real dedicated healers, pip and grohk were all about AOE potential/Ult and Grohk was the only psuedo hitscan in the game and he really great AOE damage as chain lighting was an alternate fire rather than just a projectile


I'm starting to think people have no idea what High TIME TO KILL means.
COD4 has a Low TTK, to clear things up

Skye rework when?

what do you want changed famalam

WALLHOP

Reminder to buy wrecker against an Inhaler/Fuckus comp

>want wickerman damba
>its 400 (four fucking hundred) shekels
god forbid they actually give you the option to buy it with VIP points

fuck you

That's true, you need to find the TTK that's just right where engagements don't drag on or end in the blink of an eye. But the current balancing trend Hirez is following worries me, they seem to enjoy going overboard with boosting a champ's damage/damage potential.

I feel the damage needs to be scaled back a tad and more emphasis placed on other portions of each champions kits in order to reward high skilled play rather than make it whoever deals more damage faster.

>people actually run 5-man Grandmaster stacks in casual queue

I'm retarded I meant high ttk.

Why would you buy wrecker vs Inara?

>climbing in diamond 5
>get pitted against a gm who is partied up with a master
>they pick drogoz & andy respectively
>get decimated

quality matchmaking

Regular weekend in EU, my man.
Next level is 4 grandmasters and one low level smurf to make matchmaking better in favor of GM stack.

That's the joke, fuckboi.
They bought it.
All of them.

Since TTK keeps confusing a lot of people with what higher/lower means, I propose we stop calling it that and start calling it "survivability".

how were we supposed to know, your joke kinda failed nigger

Medium TTK is the best

>Time to Kill
>confusing people
>low ttk means that the champion can kill you realy quick
>high ttk means that the champion cant kill you in an instance
>this is confusing
american hours... it shows...

i am about to reach 3.4k so you fags cant call me mr.3.3k

If you couldn't get it by looking at the fucking image, you should really consider arranging an intimate encounter between your face and the nearest blender.

He did, officer.

Ah ok. In that case

pip:
>1200 instant heal that can be used on multiple allies including self
>left click for 600dmg every 1 second
>right click AOE slow by 50% for 2.5sec

>ult is team fight winning


buck:
>1000 heal on self over 4 seconds
>left click 20 pellets that do 28 dmg = 560 dmg every .9sec if all pellets hit which is unlikely
>right click slow 50% for 1.5 sec on single target
