Personally all multiplayer game elements that remove input feel shitty. Having it done twice one a row feels like ass.

I also enjoy haze and it doesn't feel much different than capacitor/slowing hex into ult or fury tance/vamp burst so it's funny seeing everyone rage at haze doing what haze does. Shes a picks people off for being alone alone and building no defense against her. Make adjustments to the team comp or die, stop bitching

Hello everyone. I am the creator of the 3D model for the (Mohammad & Kareem) mod. Thank you for appreciating my work. I've been working on it for three months, and with a 12-hour job, I didn't have time to finish it as fast as I could have. So, when I uploaded the mod, I found out someone used my 3D render that I'd uploaded three months ago as a thumbnail for his (Mohammad & Kareem) mod. He used my image and copied it for his mod and didn't mention me at all. He was acting like he didn't know the creator of the mod and saying that he saw it on Twitter. My friend tried to contact him, and he was blaming me for not doing anything with it. Once I saw that, I tried contacting GameBanana mods to remove it, and what they did was remove the thumbnail and told me he was doing his own spin on the mod and not copying what I made. I've tried to convince them to remove it since it's obviously stealing my idea, but they don't care about it. I am asking you to help me.

im not sorry, but it is downright embarassing that valve is not changing their moderation policy on a new game . you have people dropping slurs every 2 second and no action is ever taken against them.

it has been a decade since word filter that dispense penalty have been a thing already. yes, people find way to bypass it, but at least you don't have at least 1 person going on racist, sexist or homophobic rant every single game.

The lack of consequences. Couldn't focus the entire game because of how horrible that person is. This type of behavior should get you banned from the game indefinetely.

I'm gonna be straight up with y'all, I've only ever played a couple matches of this game. I don't fully understand what's going on here aside from the fact that he's playing as Seven, but I thought this was cool.

I'm very proud of him.

Good job boyfriend.

Is it because of Deathy's video? Is it because of Hazes new admittedly annoying buff?

Its a 6400 item that is barely any good on the characters who actually use it and opens more build variety for a character. Out of the entire cast, I can think of only a couple characters who actually use Echo Shard:

Paradox - Bomb, Haze (now) - Dagger, Mirage - Tornado, Viscous - Splatter, maybe Ivy - Stone Form, maybe Doorman - Cart, occasionally Bebop if they still go a bomb build in 2026.

Its a total of maybe 4 characters that this item is good on. NO ONE ELSE EVEN BUYS ECHO SHARD! Not because its a bad item, but because there are just so many better items for those characters that also cost 6400. I have never seen a doorman with Echo Shard cart unless he was going a fucking punch build, same with Venator. I havent seen Abrams use Echo Shard since he was able to run a gun build, and even then still barely.

Why is this item all of a sudden being talked about like its ruining the game? I bet you could look in your last 10 matches and not find a single echo shard. Its good when its good but ass any other time.

Eu adoro trash talk.

Frequentemente, principalmente em 1v1 (quando eu ganho) eu envio instantaneamente um "?" no chat global. Posso ter estourado o inimigo ou ter suado brutalmente na cadeira para ganhar o 1v1, mesmo assim a interrogação estará lá.

I've been getting my ass beaten by Graves for the last 10 games, maybe. Then, to fulfill my twisted wish, I picked her last game. AND OMG, YOU DONT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING AND YOU STILL HAVE SO MUCH IMPACT. Its not even fun. Just find a nice placement, plant your ult wait till everything is over. And what's wrong with her skulls. I have seen my skulls rip through Abrams like he was made of a butter. He had almost 50% mr btw!

“Remove Echo Shard” this

“Echo shard is fine skill issue” that

Nobody wants to be stunned 30 million times in a row, no matter how much cumulative / subsequent cc resist you get it will not be enough to make it feel less like crap.

Even stacking counter items isn’t really enough most of the time, like okay you got unstop and spell breaker but echo shard still kinda nullifies the use of these items by allowing the strongest cc abilities to be cast twice (aka easy to reapply / easy recovery if you miss / etc etc things people find annoying)

This is the problem with echo shard. It WILL be used on hard cc and immunity abilities, and it’s been proven time and time again that nobody likes to fight that

This combined with the fact that they KEEP adding heroes with incredibly strong cc (graves / silver / celeste / need I go on) has created an environment where either the abilities themselves need to be reworked, the recasted ability needs to be less powerful (reduced duration / damage, whatever)

OR the easiest option besides just giving it a stupid long cooldown; say enough is enough and stop allowing people to stack up on the most annoying and crutchy effects in the game

I love echo shard Seven but I’m willing to lose that since I know how infuriating it is on the receiving end lol

EDIT; [u/Spa](u/Spakal2)[c](u/Spakal2)[kal2](u/Spakal2) has the best idea imo, which is to remove the scaling and passive benefits that echo shard provides

so taking it early in the game would be a massive stat loss since it would be purely for the extra use of an ability and wouldn’t provide you with the 6.4k spirit investment scaling like other items

I see a lot of controversy regarding an item like echo shard, and personally I believe the item itself has some issues, but it pales in comparison to the issues this item has had god knows how long. I play both the cat, the rat, and the fencer, and I don't understand why my entire kit is on lockdown for a measly 1600 souls. I can't even use my ult on calico for a longer duration than what silence wave would accomplish. Why is this item so cheap when it accomplishes half of what silence wave and mystic slow do combined? Drifter and haze can reach their 4.8k spikes with spirit extremely easily and make it almost impossible to fight back unless you specifically buy dispel magic to have a possibility of surviving.

The amount of "just buy indom or unstoppable" here and in-game like you'd win if you just bought them is bonkers to me. The biggest culprit is when your team keeps getting Lash ulted, "shoulda bought indom".

Sure, you can buy indom, so you can watch half your team get thrown into the enemy team. And you better hope they don't have rusted barrel/arctic blast/slowing hex/curse/disarming hex or the rest of the laundry list of CC abilities that will take your indom cooldown for the rest of the fight. Unstoppable won't even save you from double Ivy stone form, or refesher Lash/Dynamo, Abrams charge/ult or echo haze dagger.

And let's look at this from a resource standpoint, your entire team could buy indom. Now you've used 40k out of 100-150k of your resources to counter 1 ult or CC combo. And they've spent their resources building more damage. Not to mention you might be wanting dispel for infernus/mirage/haze/escalating exposure. So say goodbye to 1/3 of your net worth just to realize you lack damage and don't contribute to team fights.

I'd wager if you're the team forcing counter buys you've already won. Embrace circle and CC meta or you lose

since its a physical object it should function like billy's or lash's ult: works within line of sight, breaks if it touches a wall. i don't know how you can objectively justify a rope going thru everything like a spectral force, and said rope having infinite length? in that case maybe vindicta‘'s ult should be able to pierce through everything. at least she's a ghost, she can probably walk through walls if she wants.

Sorry I forgot to add the picture the first time please so hears the prompt again.

"So recently got interested in deadlock lore even though I can’t play the actual game it’s fine.
Just want to do my own character or characters.
I do have a backstory."

What should his name be??
Also he has origami/paper powers

So this has happened with 3 different people now, they *fail* parry, I immediately heavy melee and yet they parry again but my parry cooldown is definitely far, far longer than that but they have no items to justify their parry being faster. Am I just being dumb, is there a good reason for this discrepancy that I'm just not aware of?

A shamefully large portion of this community is incapable of respecting people's opinions immediately jumping to say "you're parroting this from this video". Like, just because you see a bunch of posts about people not liking echo shard doesn't mean that they got this idea from their idol online or something. Maybe multiple people just agree with each other, is that that hard to understand?

PoshyPop said Billy was OP, explaining his rising ram doing 10% (now 8) max hp as spirit damage. If I believe Billy is OP, am I now parroting PoshyPops opinion? After picking up billy afterwards, ranking up and stomping games am I just incapable of forming an opinion and just took it from my glorious leader PoshyPop? Or did I do this thing called "agreeing" and I'm actually a free will individual. And maybe, billy is actually op and that's just the truth?

And then you have people who form entirely different sentences. "I don't like echo shard" "you want the game to be boring league items". Uh, no, that's an entirely different sentence, who said I didn't like ricochet or blood tribute or all the lovely unique items in the game... I once said spirit snare was a bit weird you couldn't destroy it and someone replied "WELL YOU CANT JUST NERF ONE OF HIS ABILITIES AND GIVE HIM NOTHING IN RETURN", okay, well, when did I say anything about that?

I take issue with this enough to comment on it because of what the function of this sub is. The game is an alpha. It needs feedback and opinions. And every time you give feedback and an opinion, someone just has to reply, OFFENDED that you posted your opinion and feedback. Like, that is half the reason we're here. The other half is ivy smut.

I remember hearing in this sub about people complaining about it and the classic response was well duuhhhh she gets it at late game like 30 mins so its fine, ok now the thing is the meta build for her is to actually max 2, so what is the response to that now.

Bro it’s just not fun. Why am I against 5 echo shard that are hard cc or just do a lot of damage and a refresher dynamo. Pls Yoshi if you can buff shiv and nerf graves in under 3 days every time then you can just delete echo shard. Is this how homelander felt saying he would suck dick cause I’ll do it for it to get removed today. Refresher can maybe stay if it increases your ult cooldown by 25% or some as a drawback

We still lost btw

get this awful character out of my games, 58% pickrate with 55% winrate, takes zero skill to sleep dagger someone from stealth and hold mouse 1 on them. at least make her buy curse or silencer or focus lens if she wants to take away all of your counterplay

Now I completely understand why you all would want a visual update, but I cant imagine why you would want the characters kit changed as a Sinclair player.

Vexing Bolt is literally the best early game poke tool that literally kills most of the roster in 2 bolts with decent execution.

Assistant is easily the best movement tool in the whole game and it also makes your Vexing Bolt Damage engine even stronger.

Rabbit Hex is literally the single best mid boss contest tool in the game and is also an extremely strong cc/ teamfighting ability, that when combined with echo shard, can single handedly win team fights.

And do I even need to explain why he has the best ult in the game?

Sinclairs only downside in his kit is that he doesnt have any combos or a gun build. But otherwise, you can literally build any item, any way on sinclair and get value. He is probably the best pos 5 in the game if there were a draft. I feel like theres no way to rework sinclair without both stealing his identity and making him weaker, so why do so many sinclair mains want him changed directly?

Echo shard in my personal opinion is really not healthy for the game and in practice feels like a street brawl item that somehow sneaked over to the main game. Sure it's a t4 item that isn't mandatory on the majority of the cast but I think it encourages a lot of "cheeseing" and is generally unfun to play against for enemy. For reference I play Doorman, Sinclair, and Paradox and I know from first hand that all 3 of these characters benefit a lot from echo shard (with double cart stun, Double bunny and Double Nade) and it also benefits abilities like Haze Knife, Mirage Tornado and Ivy Stone form.

All of the characters I've listed before have abilities that provide heavy CC/stuns which isn't all that bad considering they usually require a "skill shot" or at least some planning to land. The problem comes once you land prior ability you are guaranteed to land it once again. For example, the first haze knife, Sinclair Bunny, Doorman Cart isn't all that bad but when you get incapacitated by said ability there is nothing you can do to stop the enemy from landing it once again and in effect echo shard results in all the stun abilities lasting twice as long with little counterplay for the opponent (besides a teammate rescuing beaming said victim out). You can make the argument by spending 6.4 K on an active slot item you lose out on other upgrades that could've given you more damage/survivability but is that really so bad when you have an ability if you land it once and can coordinate with your team pretty much guarantees an instant kill on the enemy?

I feel theres a couple of ways you can rework this item without just removing it from the game such as increasing the cooldown even further (e.g. 35 sec -> 60 sec) but that still doesn't solve the fact that it sets up a prolonged stun on your enemy, which doesn't solve my personal gripe with the item. You can also give it a damage penalty like curse or even some other draw backs in stats (Like weighted shots decreasing your stamina/dash movement).

My proposal is to make Echo Shard an ability that can imbue a charge onto nonchargeable abilities and have the cooldown between charges not be instantaneous (e.g. Holliday Barrel Charge taking 7 seconds to refresh before Max T5). This would make it so that if you are caught by an Ivy Stone Form or Mirage Tornado you aren't immediately stunned twice as long and have some time to run away. To compensate, we can have this new echo shard upgrade from Rapid Recharge and have it the option to give additional charges (and maybe shorter CD between charges but that might make abilities like Shiv Knife and Holliday Barrel a little disgusting).

I think Echo shard can be reworked but idk maybe it should be removed from the game and become a street brawl exclusive? let me know your thoughts

Edit: My idea to have Echo shard upgrade from Rapid was so that the noncharged ability having an extra charge will only ever have 2 (at reasonable CD from each other) and you wouldn't run into the problem of having Abrams have 4 wall charges. Sorry if that wasn't made clear!

Let me know what you guys think!

P.S sorry if the formatting and writing is bad, these are some late night thoughts.

Just having some fun in Street Brawl. I'm new to video editing but I enjoyed making this so hopefully you will too.
