Drogoz Got a HUGE BUFF With This Air Strafing Change! - Paladins PTS Gameplay

[@johnathanstark5076]

Now all we need is either a cuddly drogoz skin, or a gargoyle drogoz skin

[@ravins4786]

Or both

[@helgermania1297]

gargoyle would be nice

[@andrewbuchan5337]

Why not DZO3

LETS GO DROGIZ BUFF

[@adamnetski7887]

"Let me kill your Kasumi" The most reletable thing ever

[@polarblade1159]

Enemy team hears some weird shotgun sound, something liquid splashing and some weird choking screams before their kasumi just stops moving and stands around uselessly😂

[@thedevilscallx159]

Still praying for yag buffs and talent rework 😞 (her "point tank" talent is horrible)

[@unknownuser4224]

It should probably give damage reduction when on point as well as the healing since yag doesn't have a barrier and doesn't move.

[@magythemage]

agreed, id like to see 6000hp again and unnatural presistance changed into something like "recieve increased healing when using hardening" or something

[@thedevilscallx159]

@@magythemage increased healing in hardening should be based kit using that ability is basically death if your under 50% hp

[@seebassteterismaster7879]

@@thedevilscallx159 What about replacing that talent with the ability to use your ultimate in while hardening, and the duration for the hardening lasts until the ult finishes or yag is reduced to 0 health. Of course the damage dealt by this effect is reduced by 75% because if you snipe someone across the map, the duration lasts for soo long and duration = damage for yag. Also a few perk cards may need to be fixed to handle this new talent. Even if Yag is reduced from 0 hit points in ult mode, at least the champion take damage as hardening detonates.

[@detamarakinta]

A great change to Kasumi i think would be great is that her damage depends on how close it is the crosshair to enemy Crosshair on top of enemy = full damage Crosshair in the line of sight cone = damage fall-off that scales on how far the crosshair is to the enemy (respectively)

[@laxattack4620]

I love that they're balancing Paladins around movement and fair gameplay now

[@Ben-si7ve]

All they need to do to fix kasumi is change her primary fire to a thrown projectile( throwing nails), and if she hits consecutive shots THEN she can activate her stabby stabby similar to Tiberius fast throw, and tali's over boost. She would be balanced.

[@nascorp3126]

Maybe the kasumi player was trying the nerfed left click Its basically that you have to tap and hold instead of just holding If you just hold and move the crosshair its gonna take a while before the left click starts hitting but if you aim and left click and then hold then it is instant... Still its not a nerf in my opinion they should reduce right click damage probably..

[@jasonmension3979]

They're a lvl 200 kasumi lol that was a kasumi main

[@XLORDPROPL]

Welcome... I'm double click user :)

[@raurisaurus5057]

The damage nerf isn't proper because then she won't do her job as a damage dealer. Also nerfing her damage will make her even worse against shields and deployables and she is already one of the worst characters against them. Unless we are speaking about her skill. As a person who loves kasumi and finds her fun to play (I love her mines and the fear), her one card that allows her to buff her skill damage is really strong. With around 3 stacks you can usually one tap people or get SUPER close to doing so. Kasumis auto aim definitely should be something more similar to Lian, but if that's the case then her damage and kit should remain the same. Especially with the amount of counters she has due to the way her stacks work. If they don't remove the auto aim and only make it harder to use (which they can only do so much before either she becomes miserable to play, or she just isn't good), they definitely should nerf her skill damage by about 20%. Maybe 30%. I also believe they should rework her two talents.

[@raurisaurus5057]

Something that would probably be a good change for kasumi is two different methods for her aim: Tighten the auto aim to be character model tight. (Although most characters can hit models even outside of the actual character model. The hitboxes in paladins are really weird and big for no reason), and make it to where holding isn't effective if your aim falls off the model. Or: Give Kasumi Hitscan projectiles that work like Lian. Next step her kit: Put her mine talent into base skit. Reduce the fear timer slightly. Buff her base damage to 210 and it increases by 40 for each stack. 5 stacks would be 410 damage. Each stack reduces the damage enemies do by 3%. The base damage of her skill should be 500. Each stack should increase it's damage based off the enemies max HP. 2%. So the skill would do 500 + 10% of max HP at max stacks. Making kasumi better against tanks and less effective against flankers. (Against 2k HP her skill would do 700 damage at max stacks). Against 5000 HP it would be 1000 instead. Remove the disarm from the skill when at max stacks. Talent Reworks: Talent 1: When Kasumi reaches max stacks on an opponent, each attack deals 50 damage to nearby opponents. Kasumi deals an additional 200 damage to deployables and shields. Talent 2: Allow Kasumi to teleport to her triggered mines. When an enemy is nearby a triggered mine that kasumi teleports to, they are affected with a blindness effect for 1.2 seconds. (How Maeves ult works). Kasumi's ult also now blinds the initial opponent for 2 seconds. Talent 3: When kasumi phases she heals nearby teammates and herself for 150 every 1s she is in the phase form. Nerf Kasumi's max HP to 1950. TLDR: Kasumi's attacks are slightly stronger at the cost of her aim and skill damage being lowered. Her skill damage is altered to be better against tanks but weaker overall against flankers or other DPS. Kasumi's max health is nerfed to make her a little more in balance Incase the burst is still to strong, or the auto aim is still to problematic. (She should keep her hp normal if her attacks become Hitscan projectiles). With kasumi's attack speed talent removed, she can no longer just shred people with normal attacks, however it is replaced with a talent that slightly helps kasumi against her counters. Kasumi can also choose a talent for sustain and team sustain, or blindness to add in addition to the fear, while also allowing herself to teleport to her mines again like in her old kit. Her skill is also much less effective due to the damage nerf against squishier targets making her easier to fight against. (With her one talent card she was capable of easily doing 1k+ bursts to anyone).

[@jasonmension3979]

@@raurisaurus5057 or just simply make it a projectile, if they wanna make something really cool I like the idea of projectiles similar to zhin only you hold another button to charge the attack like a sniper or dont hold it and it's just rapid fire, when I originally saw the design for kasumi I thought she would attack with her chains and I still like this as an idea for her over her doll since if you make it hitscan then its gonna look weird, stabbing a doll which causes a projectile to shoot out?😂 I think they just need to rework the primary entirely and a neat projectile sniper playstyle with mines and maybe a better movement ability would be great.

drogoz lookin mighty fine in that render

I just got Drogoz so I could do one of the trials and get some more money, thought he was also worth picking up. Never have I had less fun playing this game.

[@facupov]

I hope this improvement reduce a bit the delay and stiffness of all the movements

[@nightcaller92]

I was waiting for this! Ever since the air-strafing changes where you were talking up how good it is for VII, I was just sitting here like "Yeah? Makes sense. But how about the character literally DESIGNED to spend 70% of the match airborne?" xD

[@ubitialcosmos]

One thing that pissed me off when I started playing Zhin, is Kas can hit through the "Counter"... like what the hell is the point of the counter at that point? I hated her since she was released, but that just grinded my gears

About time jfc, something to compensate for having the biggest hitbox among the Damage champions category

So your just done playing the live game?

Hey andrew i watch your content a lot. Have they fixed the bug where you couldn't equipp yagorath's golden skin? It happens since like 3 months ago and idk if they fixed it. I main yago im really sad and angry with the devs she doesnt almost have skins and the golden one is bugged.

I still don't get your hate for combistible and your love for wyrmjets- I never see a use for wyrm because it doesnt give any bonus dmg and with comb you can run spit reset and spam thrust like crazy as sort of a flight tool, it's my favourite talent. Also, it's sort of a harder to use saati blastback

[@switchblade6]

I find wyrm jets is only really useful if you're using cards that help with your fuel anyway. Otherwise the speed doesn't help all that much. I personally like Fusillade.

[@polarblade1159]

@@switchblade6 I play both fusi and comb depending on the enemy comp (if they're likely to play a bit spread and offensive I run fusi, into a point-pressuring defense comp I run comb, also into nando, Inara and barik it's nice to deal damage to everything they build up, for Fusi I like a thrill of the hunt 5 setup with reload speed and hp at 4

More examples of how character level does not translate to being even remotely good at anything, and you should stop focusing on it so much.
