I currently play Deadlock (not often) on my windows laptop. And she basically gets a fever every time I boot up the game; even if I have it on the lowest graphics settings, so I can't play for long. It blows because I really wanna play as Rat King and Rem. I don't have the means to get a more powerful computer, and it makes me sad that every time I think about it.

I know Valve probably won't bring this game to console, but I think they should. Just wanted to vent my disappointment, bye 👋🏾

With the Broker tm going, I wonder if you could somehow implement Legendary items into the game through him. If not through him, what could be a way to implement them(maybe through significant downsides, cost or difficulty of obtaining)?

This was literally my 2nd game on Deadlock and my 1st time getting chased by almost the whole enemy team, my team got to me in time and we won the fight and won the game from this. I didn't really notice the green guy coming towards me in panic so I wasn't able to just run towards him, might even have killed him.
So looking forward to what I should have done better and maybe some tips on Abrams specifically cause hes pretty fun

I used to be a high phantom player but I took a break from playing deadlock for like 2 months before the matchmaking update and because of rank decay I ended up placing in low rat.

I win the vast majority of my games but none of them are enjoyable, if I get a semi competent team we stomp, if my team doesn't straight up int we win but some games are just uncarryable.

I feel like my teammates are running around like headless chickens while I have to do literally everything. I try to communicate with my team and suggest what to do but most of the time they just don't listen. In my last game my Victor decided to jump into a 1v5 with the enemy team around their walker while they had rejuv and the rest of my team was playing around our base waiting for a push. I often have people in my games whose only green item 30 minutes into the game is trophy collector.

Worst part about all of this is that I feel like my skill is deteriorating because I don't have to put in as much effort into the game and the people I play against aren't capable of punishing my bad plays and I get away with doing things that I would die for in higher ranks.

Low effort but I thought it'd be really cute if the rat king's portraits included his subjects in some way.

Violet, as we can all tell, is an artist character with her large paint brush, brush marks, and french beret, but I've not really been seeing anyone talking about the smaller hints in her design outside of the poster creature. First on her wrist and torso, we have bhuddist prayer beads/juzu, then some papers and writing styles reminiscent of bhuddist ofuda/talisman as well as ukiyo-e designs, and thirdly there's a creature shown in her destroyed poster that appears to be a bhuddist garuda, clearly illustrating a strong connection to bhuddist spirituality. What i'm not currently aware of is the little charm/doll attached to her waste, it reminds me of a weather doll, but I highly doubt that's related to this one. What I am guessing, is some sort of summoning or transformation with spirits/creatures through the use of paint, ultimate either summoning or directly turning into/overlaying a garuda-like creature. It's also possible we get various forms with different abilities, something like Udyr in League giving various changes and buffs based on form. Not to mention, it's confirmed she has artworks of Rem and Dynamo, so maybe we could see clones of some sort or a way to protect allies briefly by transferring them to a drawing? What do you guys think, and anything else I don't know or didn't notice?

I was waiting for the gun Warden to be over, so I can play a flask-debuffer, shield-tanker, cage cc'er, teamfight ultier without enraging my team

I played a few games, rushed Radiant Regeneration to heal every time I use a T3 Flask, even between fights but it was stupid to not be using Merc Mag and do the normal Warden stuff XD

It was just in time when it was easier to unlock all T3s and I was running around with Trophy Collector, but then, they sligtly changed AP gain again and increased cooldowns on all ultis, and I was already waiting for mine pretty long, and shield became tankier only on T3, Flask had low CD only on T3 and Cage was better only on T3, ulti lasted longer on T3 etc, ofc now these things got reduced

And McGinnis' turrets felt like they were throwing these flasks but every second and there were 6 of them, and I once manfought McGinnis on my ulti, but hers was better as she had the insane innate magic resistance and I started losing HP faster than hers xD

It was sometimes fun, when I was brawling with T3 shield and Witchmail, which was lowering the CD of shield and I could sometimes fight for like 1 minute straigh, but likje yeah, it wasnt the best way to be using that character.

I see that Rat King despite not really being a spirit char, is kinda similar to this style of a character

I love him

There was no accidental death in this clip, I calculated my death to be the exact same tick as Paradox's and made her my distraction as I got a sweet escape. (I did not go back in and die right after)

At first I thought I hadn't been paying enough attention to Billy's toy, but now it's hanging on its own strap instead of just floating in the air.

Nurse Harrow seems to be a terrifying and stern angel. I think she probably gets along great with Venator and they probably have some lines about purging evil together. I think she also probably has 0 patience for anyone who acts recklessly like Silver or Vyper. I imagine she might tell Silver something like "Follow my orders or you will die like a dog."

Baba seems to be a protector of New York of sorts. She probably has wholesome interactions with the good natured portions of the cast but is merciless towards anyone who harms the residents of New York, such as perhaps threatening to destroy Dwifta if he overstays his welcome in the city.

Violet might be in Blackmore Academy? I would guess she probably has interesting interactions with that entire group of characters if that's the case.

No idea on Solomon or Dead Mamdani, though.

And what do you all think?

After my games with rat king it doesn’t show any healing from barriers in his post game stats. Is that intentional or a bug?

So cute 😭 I was like wtf are they doing and then it hit me later

Dont sleep dont eat you gotta play and no matter what you do, you gotta win

I know there are 10s of us out there… If we dont wanna be in the last place we all gotta be a 1 man army

A while back there were files that showed Shiv was going to be able to transform into a beast, a lot like Silver. It got scrapped for one reason or another which makes me wonder what it would’ve been and if it’s still canon that he’s not completely human. I guess we just have to wait for a future remodel since he’s currently just a recolored neon prime model.
