Double glory weekend this weekend and every weekend until the 4th! I liked Joule too as she was but the bit of twitch I seen people seemed happy with the changes so maybe she wasn't getting used much. I know I rarely see people use her.
If there was someone somewhat underpowered and needs a little bit of buff, it would be Catherine. She is fantastic in a teamfight coz of her tankiness and her utility skills, but she just cant duel unless she got fed. Unless the team is duo-jungling, a smart enemy jungler can just kite her around.
Update is live and servers should be back up soonish with skarrf available to play! Also the custom matches with all 6 players chosen. New crystal exosions and unfortunately a nerf for Catherine's shield but it doesn't sound too bad, a bit of a nerf for saw too but I'm hoping skarrf with counter saw well as saw is the only charachter I consider overpowered and I play everyone bar petal. Oh and there's a change to how Joules lightning shots are aimed, the range is increased slightly too. Also stuns won't remove your stacks on the hits.
Not a fan of the SAW nerf. I had little trouble keeping him in check with ambushers like Koshka and Glaive. And he's the only lane hero that suited my aggressive play style. I hear crystal builds might still be viable, but I found he was close to useless with a combat build last night. He's actually levelling slower than everybody else now, his ultimate didn't actually seem to increase DPS, and if people run away from the knife, it just won't hit. Like SAW runs up with the knife, starts to swing, and then they're out of range and he needs to run some more. Also feels like the only guy who's actually vulnerable to Skarf, but maybe that's because people are still learning Skarf. I guess I should get off my ass and learn to Adagio.
Adagio is good and so far I've had fun with Skarrf I've had a few games with him now and had things like 10-1 and 12-2 with plenty of assists. Very good at zoning and killing runners, slowly eat away other laners health until you get 5 stars in the fireball then it's good.
What? Skaarf sucks so badly. I follow the build from vainglory Fire and still he's so weak his ultimate doesn't even hurt the enemy and he's slow and dies so easily even though I have metal jacket and spring of renewel AND dragonheart early on, but when I stuck with Taka look at that. I always win with Taka
I've been doing great with skarrf, I've been getting plenty of matches where I'm getting things like 10-1 or 12-2 with piles of assists. The range helps stay safe if you play clever it's all about the tactics and play style. Max out his first ability as soon as you can the 5th point increases its damage a lot, then I 5 point the sludge too and only 2 point the final ability as its very situational. But I have used the final ability to wipe the entire enemy team or kill one or two and make them run. He has so many uses and so far my only problems are with Koshka as I have trouble escaping due to her speed, Taka I can usually kill by kiting same with Krul and others. I always fire my fireballs back while I'm running and chuck out a sludge pit as when they walk through it it'll explode into flames if they are on fire. I often end up running away and then ending up being the person chasing them because their health ticks away chasing me. Go for anyone buying health items first too, the higher their max health the more damage burn does. Saw is like a sitting duck I'm glad he got nerfed but unsure if it's too much I have to see him more to tell yet.
Add me, I'm JCho133. Total noob at MOBAs (this is my first). Favoriting Koshka at the moment, tending to take the Roamer role, switching between jungling and ambushing the lane when necessary
Looking for players good at 1v1 or 3v3. Highest kills I've done is 25 in a game. I started playing recently and have got the idea for strategic play. North America Region Game Name: ScaryGuns
This is a good game. The preset pings are perfect and I would not want to ruin it with text chat since this game is suppose to be team oriented and I can predict many pissed off players with their teammates using bad words
