People would ragequit so fast when they were losing so it would suddenly be 2v5 five minutes in. I don't really get why people quit so fast anyway, because MNC matches had a hard time limit of like 15-20 minutes anyway thanks to sudden death. There was no penalty for leaving, and by the time other people joined to fill in the empty slots on your team, the other team was already camping your base and killing you the instant you came out.

Is it just me or is Leon completely overpowered? There's absolutely nothing you can do about his invis, and he's like Riki/Nighthound with a Pudge/Devo/Blitz hook. How do you counter him?

Polo-Rican posted:Did you know that you can hurt him while he's invisible? If you hit an invisible Leon, you see damage numbers rise out of seemingly thin air. This is basically how you deal with him. I like how this game's counter to invisibility is "fire everywhere blindly praying you hit him". This is really bad for characters like Clunk who have pretty much nothing to deal with it, because if you do anything but instagib him he gets away from you or murders you from full hp. Lonestar's pretty stupid too, since bull is pretty much a get out of jail free card, but at least you can kill him if that's on cooldown. Or you're Leon.

Polo-Rican posted:Yeah I find this really annoying. A mindless Lonestar will just push the enemies away again and again, making kills impossible. Reminds me a bit of bad Furion players.

Normal Adult Human posted:They're not sidegrades. Lonestar is worthless without rubber casings and incendiary dynamite. Leon sucks without attack/move/explode clones and both tongue damage upgrades. Froggy G needs all the cooldown reduction on dash possible or else he can't anti-air for poo poo. Voltar can't do anything but hide behind clunk until like level 40. Derpl's actually pretty okay except for the fact he unlocks at level 19. Solar tree and piggy bank are the first and second best generic selections in the game, and the third best is a free +30 hp you unlock at level 39. I really like this game but I feel like all the stuff you have to unlock that's so much better than default makes some characters feel worthless until they get it. And I don't like beating people just because my Froggy tornado had +40 damage on it and theirs didn't. Orv posted:So what am I missing about solar farming/generation? Even if I'm constantly defending and killing people I just keep falling levels and levels behind every time I have to go back. Is it just word of law to run the income stuff? Make sure you get the health powerups from killing neutral enemies or the ones that sit around the map. You also can't be very aggressive initially, you really don't want to lose a lot of health at all before you get some HP regen/HP upgrades. HP regen is totally underrated, I like it better than money tree because it means you can stay out there fighting longer. PalmTreeFun fucked around with this message at 08:39 on Aug 6, 2012 |

I love when other people pick him when I'm Froggy, because I can get really aggressive and come back to recover some health quick. He's already really good at hit and run, he's just even better when he doesn't have to worry how much health he loses in the process.

Derpl is so fun, I love that guy. Derpl + Voltar + Clunk is the best pubstomp team, the healing turret makes it so hard to kill you so can just go into siege mode, blow poo poo up, and tank a turret and 2 guys. Also outdamages Leon hard in siege mode.

Rematch is the only guaranteed way to get a match that just started for the most part. I always do that if I'm not stomping or getting stomped repeatedly.

After playing Leon, it seems like the best counter to him is not trying to split push. Go with your team, and gets lots of disables/damage up close.

miscellaneous14 posted:Seriously, I'm really wondering what's the deal here. It could be another case like when Uber Entertainment only listened to the loudmouth idiots on their forums on how to balance Super Monday Night Combat. This is still better than "instant kills are no fun, everyone gets a million health now". Actually come to think of it I hated Voltar anyway because of that.
