Something I'd like to add is this video focused on SOLO lanes, duo lanes are a very different story. I may cover these at another point, the same principles apply but there are many more variables at play in duo lanes. Enjoy!

Yeah i’d love to know your thoughts on duo lanes! I’m an Archon 6 player and my gut feeling tells me freezing isn’t great against heroes with good engage. Played against a Bebop and Mirage in a pub and got rolled under tower. Eventually won by basically abandoning wave and roaming/jungling.

2:45 I’m confused, why would it be hard to deny for him if pushing waves means he would be closer to his minions? Shouldn’t pushing the wave to the opponents tower be an advantage because of that/disregarding the cover thing u said in the vid ? Or is this specifically bad for this matchup since mirage can output pressure indernus

@@TeckNoobie I think as a duo lane you freeze lane only when you have to, because duo lanes need to take advantage so one can go gank or smth, whereas solo lane you don't really win much by pushing the lane because you won't have time anyway to go gank and will lose creeps in te process. So btter play safe in solo lane, and aggro in duo. IMO. But im init 1 :p

So. Here is my problem. I watched this the other day and have tried to employ it. First game, my lane didn't have barrels, no such easy to use cover close to the last hits. Enemy just ran up on me, harassed me to death if I tried to peek to last hit. Second game, I had the barrels. Shiv literally just walked up behind them next to me to fight me and did more damage than me in the exchange, even when I heavy meleed and hit him with all my skills when he came up. This method doesn't work.

Another important point is this strategy minimises variance. You know you won't die under your guardian and you'll be roughly even in souls and you place the onus on your opponent to go for plays. Usually strats like this favour scalers like Pocket, so you know that if the freeze continues, you eventually win. So in 2/3 scenarios you win, with the only losing scenario being that your opponent makes a successful play that you can't react to because you're under your guardian. If they fail their play, then it's also a win for you.

This is probably the most helpful video I've watched for Deadlock. Used this in a match today as Haze and it really clicked, freezing won me the lane and it was very clear how exactly it did. For Haze, that 2.2k soul T2 Fixation upgrade is the bare minimum requirement for her to have any kill potential, and it's a few more thousand souls after that until she can properly pressure tower. Having the flow of the lane in my hands made scaling gradually and safely really easy, and my enemy lane mate didn't really know how to respond. Great stuff! Thank you for making this video.

This is a great video! One of the things I struggle with is when I'm in a neutral lane, where I or my opponent are playing passively, how do I then transition into the mid game where I get active on the map? It's hard to not feel like the Mirage in the 2nd example, where the instant I leave, my lane opponent gets a big advantage on my tower and taking objectives. A video on this transition with examples would be really helpful!

What works for me is crashing my wave to roam or farm. When mid-game is coming up I’ll be more aggressive to keep crashing wave and destroy their guardian and make sure the enemy backs up. Most players will back up at that point and play at walker and the enemy can’t push up as easily anymore with the shorter zipline
@ostenkara4795
@ostenkara4795 24 күн бұрын
Also whenever your enemy does something, react to it. Like say they go gank, if you can’t respond and assist your teammates then punish the enemy either crashing waves or stealing farm. If the enemy is unsuccessful in a roam then you have just gotten yourself a lead while they were gone

I also tend to get stuck into infinite laning phase in my low elo matchups. I think the important thing to realize is that Guardian resist regularly drops until 8min, so at this point you should try to add more pressure and get Guardian. Once you get Guardian it gives you more room to roam before going back to defend your guardian

As someone who played a lot of league, I super appreciate this video. No one is talking about wave management, and it's super important. Question: If I'm infernus, how do I break the freeze? Just last hit as well? Even if a small difference, your minions should arrive first, so him pushing is really what is maintaining your freeze, right?
@TheDrakmannen

Theres not that much you can do to get the lane un-frozen, but you can like Deathy says try to use the space of the lane typ do other stuff such as box/neutral farming. In dota you could attack your own creeps from 50% hp to make them die faster but so far not in deadlock
@saintyoo

That's interesting. In other mobas, you break freezes by forcing minions under tower. With how fast minions arrive via the zip line, it looks like the waves don't bounce or stack in the same way.

But in Deadlock, you often want the opposite as well. If I understand correctly, "freezing the wave" is a concept for advanced players precisely because in the majority of matchups pushing the wave under the opponent's tower is better. I'm bad at the game though, just trying to repeat what the pro's say.
@Slay4JoyOW
@Slay4JoyOW 22 күн бұрын
Yes in deadlock pushing is better, unless you know that you need to freeze. I do this on Haze all the time and it works great, she has very little pressure I can't trade well with my opponents, and I simply freeze the lane, last hit, and use moments to make a pressure play with a sleep dagger. But on vindicta for example, because her gun is so strong you can outshoot most opponents, and her gank potential is great with the stake and the flight, so it's better to push the lane and see if you can gank or take boxes
@stealthyturtles
@stealthyturtles 21 күн бұрын
This is why I prefer Smites laning phase over all over MOBAs personally. Pushing the wave starts to starve the enemy. If the tower hits a creep, it reduces its value to 1/4 of what it should be worth if you killed it without tower assist. So 100 gold becomes 25 gold for every creep the tower hits, and you can gain advantage off being aggressive. The balance for it is that early game creep waves CHUNK you and they also target the enemy player if you damage one of their friendly players so you have to balance bursting them and the enemy while having good spacing. There’s no deny mechanic in that game but there is a +gold incentive if you get the last hit. You also get gold and exp if the creeps just die in your vicinity without you even touching them, but it’s reduced. Also towers will automatically switch targets to an enemy player if you damage a friendly player under its radius. I don’t really like the parry mechanic on tower incentive to dive and would like towers/walkers to beam players down if you’re trying to defend it but taking poke. It’s kinda dumb how one little creep can face tank an entire walkers beam by the time it dies if you have someone like Wraith melting it, and the creep is like 1/3 hp still

If you freeze lane, then you can't use the TPs to roam and help your opposite solo lane. So freezing is only good if you're basically playing someone that can't rotate for a strong gank like lash that he metnions roaming to the duo lane but neglects the TP can be really nice if your wave is passed the half way mark you can TP and get MS on tp to clear camps and tp or zip line boost back to line to catch the wave after he is done pushing it back

Are there any solo-lane matchups that you wouldn't want to do this against? I know it heavily depends on which character you're playing as well. But let's say that instead of Pocket vs. Mirage, it was Pocket vs Geist or Viscous. Hiding behind cover like this won't save you since you can be pressured by AOE abilities. So is freezing a good play against these types of matchups or would you be better off keeping the lane neutral/shoved?

Do you have a tip for a hard matchup that does have AoE damage spells to harass me under tower, while I freeze the wave? Like, you showed your matchup vs Mirage, sitting behind the barrels. But what if it's a Lady Geist that constantly spams her 1 on me? It might be a skill issue, but I find it very difficult in those cases to move around to avoid their spells and at the same time last hit the troopers and avoid getting hit by the opponent's normal attacks.

This way of playing relies on an your opponent pushing into you and up to tower, the alternative being a stale lane without much interaction beyond trying to keep each other off boxes. This is anti fun and it would be nice to see more content dedicated to the eradication of gameplay like this as it spurns the shooter half of deadlock in favor of classic moba techniques, a real wasted opportunity by valve as I currently don't see much counter play to what's being demonstrated, thus driving away potential new players who migrated from the mostly soulless fps genre atm.

Deadlock is the first moba I’ve taken seriously, so the macro is all new to me. Is the lane unplayable for the Infernus because you’re able to apply constant pressure because you’re waiting for last hits only?
@Deathy
@Deathy 24 күн бұрын
The matchup is incredibly Mirage favored, because Mirage is just the best laner in the game pretty much. Since that's the case, if Infernus has to play forward, it's very easy for me to fight him, and very hard for him to fight me. In the video, you see anytime he moves forward, he takes a ton of damage. That's what makes it even more unplayable

Is there a way to break the freeze or r u out of luck once the freeze happens Edit: the more I think abt this the more I’m lost. It looked like the infernus tried to push the lane in to mirage to make it bounce back to him but that didn’t happen. Maybe it’s due to the lack of HP and power to do so bc he’s an infernus?

Does the wave just not bounce in this game like in league? I guess it just doesn't because of the last hit mechanic but it's a bit strange that this is able to be done under tower

for the second clip, could this be done on lane bullies that can attack from unusual angles? like for example, vindicta, GT. if so, how would you do it? whenever i lane against those character it feels as if i suffocate in lane till i die

Yeah it can be, although those characters are better at harassing under tower than most. You have to play around with different cover - it is harder against them though
