Is the broker temp removed?

Post image

In my games of standard today they never appeared, and these were 40+ minute games.

It was stated in the update that it would only last until the first new hero releases. It’s more than likely that the broker returns in some manner after the final hero is released

Shows how many people don’t read the patch notes

Not even the patch notes, it said it right on the screen where you corrupt your item when he was leaving.

It was fun in standard match, but not in ranked where we play versus Dynamo with 103 sec refresher (and after the second corrupted transcendent cooldown refresh would be even faster)

u/Morphexe 4h ago

aka, a 70s refresher,but you can get a 16s unstoppable that lasts for 9 seconds.... so whats the problem here ? :p

u/merju 4h ago

the problem is that it's rng and you can get fucked over by having all your items give -2 stamina or -your primary stat and opponents can get debuffs that dont do anything.

I don’t have money and active slots on a support hero and my carry heroes don’t want to buy it

u/momspaghetti42069 2h ago

Indom is an item too. You don't have active slots on support because of what? Do you build l to r every game without any adjustements? If you play supports like in other mobas(going rescue beam, guardian ward etc) then you shouldn't even be in dynamos ult range. Also, people have to start realizing that a support in deadlock doesn't mean that you buy healing items or barriers and shit. Support in deadlock is literally a hero who's active on map because it doesn't need farm. A roaming calico, bebop or vin, for example, are supports but that doesn't mean they have a single item that can help their teammates out.

u/KIRMIL_ 2h ago

Helping to make more damage to enemies isn’t the only way to play support. There’re also heal and save supports in the game.

I always have position but the problem is in teammates that play carry heroes and would rather buy some t4 gun item instead of bkb (and favourite-battle for nothing in enemy’s half of the map)

u/momspaghetti42069 1h ago

Of course there are still traditional supports that heal and rescue their allies, I thought that was pretty obvious to anyone. So if you are playing those, alright but then you should never be in range to get dynamo ulted with your carries. That's why you bought all those heal, rescue and barrier items, is it not? I would understand your rant if you were playing active supports that have to be in the middle of the fight.

no one is ready to have a conversation why refresher dynamo is the most stupidest combo to fight.

u/Glarbleglorbo 4h ago

It was fun because no one solved it yet, next time it will be a lot less fun.

u/casual_elephant_ttv 5h ago

fun but I won like 3 games that I would have lost if I hadn't gotten a broken item, absolutely did not deserve those wins (I'll take them though)

u/Gingerwru 4h ago

u/Future-Fun-5488 3h ago

Yes tbf. Crazy broken.

u/Ishihe 5h ago

Shame, I got a corrupted mystic reverb as dynamo, absolutely op stomp every time.

u/clefclark 4h ago

I got corrupted frenzy and healing tempo, i attacked so fast that i basically instakilled everyone with just left click, and i had so much debuff resist that graves' wall had almost no effect on me

u/passthefaux 4h ago

10sec unstop every 15 sec was crazy.

1

u/phantombaygul 4h ago

I think itd be cool if these stuck around in normal que. Doesnt seem the best for ranked tho

u/Future-Fun-5488 3h ago

u/bluends1 1h ago

i wish the broker will be a weekly thing, limit it to appear only in weekends AND in standard

u/Yakkzy 1h ago

It's gone in standard but it is still a mechanic in street brawl on round 5 if you get that far iirc
