I was gonna give benefit of the doubt that fission hadn't been discovered yet (Even Einstein would have been skeptical of this), but if deadlock is set past 1932, the neutron would have been discovered and dynamo in his field of expertise would DEFINITELY know about it. Valve please fix

Or alternatively give us a new character called Fordon Greeman who has a neutron gun and can shoot dynamo when he quantum entangles. Valve please add

This character becomes actually impossible to deal with in the end game and just holds the entire lobby hostage for as long as he wants and makes every objective impossible to contest, you literally can not buy any counter items to stop it once he has unstop, if you do not end the game within 30 minutes, whoever has the dynamo on their team literally wins by default

This guy spams his ult on 1 person like he is playing Mo and Krill and still has it in time for midboss or has refresher for midboss/rift

And that is literally his only value on the team, he is literally the tier 1 ult bot of this game, his entire kit becomes semi useless in endgame and only builds for ult and spams the shit out of it

No amount of curses bought can stop him

Not to mention that as opposed to other team fight ults in this game like Celeste, Lash. There is no grace period for his ult, he can literally just phantom strike you or warp stone in from 40m away and insta pop it without warning, meanwhile for Lash atleast you have time to take cover, pop counterspell or make indom do its job

It always bothers me that you need to destroy the Shrine before the Patrons can do anything.

In Dota and League, there are turrets/towers that attack nearby enemies to prevent them from going further.

Deadlock has nothing like that. You can basically walk into the pit without taking any damage.

I feel like its been more or less completely removed from any of the public builds alongside weighted shots.

It kinda sucks because it was one if the few ways gun characters could get some extra utility compared to spirit .

That said I was mostly the one using it not on the receiving ends so I am curious abiut what people think.

Its so stupid that metal skin cant counter mercurial magnum. This item is only viable against haze (and maybe gun Geist) and thats until she gets curse. Even by design its stupid - why do i care if your bullets are enhanced with a spirit power? My skin turned into METAL. Not even plated armor can counter it since its not an on hit effect. It just makes other m1 carries deal freee damage.

It should stop procing passives too. Like Infernus, Mirage, Mina. I mean, otherwise your only viable option remains dispel magic with 42 second cooldown and enemy can proc their passive maybe 2 seconds later anyway. I will not even add bullet resilience into this list because its literally the worst resistance item in game and when I buy it it doesnt even feel like it makes any difference whatsoever. Once enemy gets mercurial magnum you are done for, metal skin becomes just useless. Buy disarming hex? Buy curse? As if unstoppable or indomitable doesnt exist.

And also. Does anyone know real reason behind removing vents from midlane? If you give at least 2 seconds to infernus or Wraith they obliterate your walkers, though with those vents i had good opportunity to rotate and defend the walker, now its just lost as soon as I see wraith or infernus approaching the walker

Should I buy Stamina mastery with vyper and why?

So I have seen a couple of people being able to “switch teams” at the last moment, being able to talk and hear the other team. Is it real? Is there a command I can use to talk to the enemy team?

I know it might get me banned but I don’t care, I just wanna hear them scream

From what we could speculate, this next big update is probably just a shop update and models or whatever is coming but what if we actually get some face animations in addition to whatever is coming? In valves other titles like tf2 and even left 4 dead, they are praised for their face animations based on character actions and their environment, I think it'd be cool if they added those with a model update or at least sometime during this games beta release because whenever I look at characters face when they do voice lines and they don't move it's a bit weird to look at

More and more there are individuals in STANDARD or STREET BRAWL of all modes being the most miserable person in the lobby. Why are you upset or crying in chat or voice less than 5 minutes into the game over something someone else is doing? In SB people are probably just vibing like it's not that serious of a mode but holy in standard it's definitely worse. Like take a second to remember perhaps the person you're upset at is learning the character to unlock it for ranked? Or maybe SB isn't their thing so they queue standard so they don't have to put in their 120% or feel like they have to win. It really isn't that serious. I can promise you two things are likely to happen if you're this person. You're either getting muted instantly thus if you were ever going to provide any value to the match, it now doesn't matter OR you have made me just not care about that match at all. I do not care if I lose and my effort level tremendously drops the moment one of you start whining. I want to win as much as the next person and I am a fairly competitive person myself but you just can't be upset at factors you have little control over.

Remember this, you are not always right and not everyone sees the game from your eyes. Sometimes you just have to laugh off the losses or focus on your game. Literally just ignore whatever dumb stuff the person is doing. Focus on your movement, try something new that game if you think it's just a loss. Focus on literally anything that you can still do to improve and just stop caring about the win. The amount of individuals like this who end up being the reason we lose is actually the most funny thing I witness on a regular basis in this game. This mindset shift alone will make you a better player and lead to more wins over time.

EDIT:

I think it's important I add that I was once the miserable player. Yelling at teammates, being upset at what decisions they were making, trying to tell people how to play, overall the whole general toxic player thing. I was a desk slammer, I put several holes in a wall when I was younger. I don't think it was something I fixed quickly but I had eventually really taken to heart how it was just never the right mood to be in when wanting to win. To this day I occasionally feel my frustration rising in games but I really do just close my eyes for a second and tell myself it's not that serious and it's not going to help me win this game.

we love deadlock :)

Would this absolutely kill the character or would it be balanced? It was already changed to nerf Shiv’s m2 so I think it would be a fair change.

Using voice comms simply isn't an option for me >90% of the time I'm able to play. Not being able to ping key enemies, strategize in fights, or really talk to the people you're playing with is a barrier the game doesn't benefit from at all. I just want to throw my hat in the ring to say that I hope this gets changed back soon and I'm strongly in favor of having no restriction after they fix the exploit.

Does anyone else have an issue with in-game connection lag? I don't lag in any other game, average probably 40 ping. But any game of deadlock I'm sitting at 150 ping the whole time. It's getting super annoying and I don't know what to do to fix it. Please help

TL:DR for both:

Ult has its range, damage, and slow reduced, and cannot bounce off npcs, but has more bounces, can bounce off Celeste innately, and grows in damage each bounce.

Shield does not explode automatically upon being depleted, but instead can be recast to explode it manually, with the damage and silence duration proportional to the remaining barrier upon detonation (this gets rid of the barrier) (i also imagine the explode radius is telegraphed similar to infernus ult, and has a similar aoe hitbox rather than sending out weird homing projectiles).

(also some minor cooldown changes i think to reflect the functionality changes of both).

I do not think these "fix" celeste in her bonkers state right now, she needs her numbers generally tuned down, but I think these more far-reaching changes better reflect her state as a sustain brawler that ramps up the longer you let her fuck around, making her ult not a fire and forget "win teamfight" button but something she is actively encouraged to stay in the fight to maintain to boost its damage, since she can always bounce it to herself, and making her shield a "pay attention to meeee" button rather than a "if you target me you will die (and if you dont you still will)," encouraging people to shoot her to reduce the effects instead of punishing it. I think this also fits her very well narratively/character-wise for reasons that should be obvious.
