Deadlock Crowd Control Breakdown - How To Counter Your Opponents

[@johnh4878]

reaaaaally can't wait for the item guide, the items are the most overwhelming part of the game for me. Thanks for all the guides they have been GREAT.

[@MarcoStyle]

My aim is to have it ready on Sunday

[@Montykrajta]

Itemization and its associated meta are the worst parts of any MOBA IMO

[@eugzo]

You're doing a really great work

[@small-boi]

These status interactions are pretty much 1 to 1 as they work in Dota. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a new type of crowd control called "leashed" in a couple of months haha

[@TheonormalMBV]

yeah the purge interaction is basically just debuffs and dispels from dota, where you're dispelling a debuff that will turn into a CC or damage in a few seconds like in seven and bebop's cases

[@ShockTemplar]

I'd say that already applies to Vindicta's stake, in a way. But there's actually a Djinn hero coming up that tethers enemies together, preventing them from walking too far from one another, while sharing all damage between all three tethered enemies.

[@Tom-gp2uo]

one key difference seems to be that using the effects that purge/remove debuffs has to be done before hand. Unless it changed, last time I played dota and for years, BKB for example could just be activated soon as you get hit by something and it would remove it. I think this suits this genre better, tbh.

[@TheonormalMBV]

@@ShockTemplar oh shit they're adding grimstroke in thats cool

[@MintyMeta]

I was going to coment this, not really suprised by the status effects and item interactions because that's how it works in Dota.

[@RanjakarPatel]

yes he same my countree. I proud four his branes! I proud!

[@Scroolewse]

To be clear IceFrog, the lead designer and balancer of Dota2, is the lead designer of this game. All those status effects are basically just ripped straight from Dota2, the terminology is all the same. Which makes me think there should also be disjoints in the game as well. If you use Warp Stone or one of the instant teleport abilities, does it allow you to dodge incoming homing projectiles?

[@MintyMeta]

In terms of the distinction between Ivy being pulled by rescue beam and Pocket not. Pocket's dodge takes him Out of play, so his model is not in the game at all and he won't be affected by anything. Ivy on the other hand seems to transform into a state where you are immune to cc and damage, however her model is still in play so allies are allowed to interact with you. Btw very good work on your most recent videos, I love them :)

[@AttacMage]

you did NOT just call my waifu Ivy a guy 😡😡😡😡

[@TheHunkySquirrel]

Yeah that was also my first thought. It's the same as in dota 2, when pocket goes into his suitcase, he's simply not in the map anymore, he doesn't exist. That means he cannot be pulled by the beam. But Ivy on the other hand, just turns invincible.

[@MintyMeta]

@@AttacMage My bad bb grl, I fixed it

THANKS. You helped us, new players a lot !

[@HaanSoIo]

Damn mans more active now than Division 1 days Im here for it

[@groovytonyYT]

17:41 I feel like a better term would be intangible rather than invincible. it makes it more clear that it removes the ability for anything to affect your character, including your own character. Pocket satchet, dynamo's teleport, the channel on yamato's ult, ethereal shift etc. All these things can dodge enemy CC but also removes the users ability to do anything as well.

[@eduardobadra]

in dota that state is called invulnerable. pocket is very similar to puck in dota, they share pocket's second and third skills. i would imagine they will call it that in the future since basically everything status affect in this game is the same in dota.

[@F8isRIPPIN]

Generally referred to as Untargetable in League, i.e. Zhonya's Hourglass

[@tsunitsu7777]

Hey man I've been loving your guides so far they've been amazing, I've been subbed for a long time going all the way back to the destiny days, I was curious, do you think you'll ever make videos of matches themselves?

[@corbinbarrett9959]

@MarcoStyle I'm loving the content! Can I request a specific video idea though? I come from primarily FPS games like Valorant and I've played very little league. Can you make a video explaining some more advanced MOBA concepts for people like me who understand the objectives but don't necessarily understand my priorities? For example, 1. If I get an early kill and push the enemy tower, should I DPS down the first champion/tower, or should I DPS down the enemy minions for souls? 2. How much should I focus on jungling? 3. How good is a first kill? Is it massively helpful, or should I just focus more on farming for the first 5 minutes? 4. If I see a big team fight mid-late game that isn't going well, should I jump in and pile on, or should I push another lane and try to split focus? 5. A lot of builds have a $6,200 item pretty early on. I know that getting that item early would be transformative to my build, however I feel like I am missing out on some value in, say, improved farming that could put me in a better overall place in the future. What do you think of that? These are just a few questions that I could think of that I don't really know the answer to, and would really help with my decision making mid game.

[@Juncboks]

That first question could have several answers that come with a better understanding of match-ups. If you're in a dominant lane, there's no need to force rush the tower if you can't kill it by the time they come back. Clear the creeps, then either put in small damage to tower before the enemy respawns or clear the small jungle next to you if it's up. Then move back to your shop to grab what you can and go back to the wave. You should be back to wave in time for the cross to meet. Try not to miss out on a creep wave, otherwise you're wasting a lot of potential.

[@regima1player]

Another banger, I wish you all the views and money that comes with it

[@thraxus6661]

Hey man, glad you found your new path forward! I just found the channel looking up deadlock info, I'd love to see some character guides, even if they're not in depth. Perhaps a very quick overview of what every character does in the game would be a good video?

AMAZING VIDEOS PLS KEEP IT UP YOUR THEORY CRAFTING IS NEEDED

[@FormationFaceroll]

I'm going to be that guy and "ehm actually" you, I'm sorry, this is meant in good spirit and in furthering the understanding of the game. Bebops Hook is not technically a stun, as far as I can tell, it's a silence, disarm, root and displacement which acts as a stun in most cases. The one case where it matters is that it doesn't interrupt channels like sevens ult. That is if we define stun as "complete interruption of your characters actions for a certain duration" You're doing gods work with your guides though, please keep it up I just wanted to contribute

[@itsmesnicky684]

Bebop hook is not a brief stun because then it would stop channels (it doesn't, or it's situational). You can't stop seven's ult with a hook.

[@MarcoStyle]

You're right. That woud make it a unqiue type of effect then? It can't be a simple displace either because you can't use items while being hooked.

[@1xavi2]

Silence displace​@@MarcoStyle

[@agent.k1254]

@@MarcoStyle also a fun little interaction is that you can use bebops hook on teammates. Which makes is sort of like a rescue beam, except it's a skillshot and doesn't provide healing. On the flipside though, it's practically free and can save a stunned teammate or move ults like that of Haze, Seven and Dynamo

[@deivitsu]

This game is nuts.

[@Aquapike]

Great video. Pretty sure the 'Invincible' status you're referring to is known as 'Intangible' though. At least that's what it's known as in Dota 2.

[@donkim3176]

Protip for paradox vs lash matchups. You can shoot the lash when he’s in the air about to slam you. If you hit the shot, he’ll be suspended in midair, giving you time to reposition

Bro you are killing it with these guides. Will you happen to showcase builds that you use for every character? To help new players have a general idea until we implement our own builds?Also do you stream?

[@trevizee806]

for "invincible" the dota terminology is being shifted, mostly because puck's 3 ability is the same as pocket's and is called ethereal shift. Some people also call it being voided for another couple of abilities.

[@ilaymorlevi9220]

I like this new type of videos but personally I expected the CC video to be on how to do good CC in matches. Don't get me wrong there's a place for both types of videos it's just something that I think a lot of people can benefit from.

Great video, thanks for all the info! I have a request, could you make a video regarding how to make the most out of the sandbox mode, specifically the bots? I see you managed to make them use items on you or perform specific actions, and knowing how to do that would make it so we can train against certain moves. Unless those aren't bots and are just your pals hahahah

I believe Ivy transforms into stone form and immune to cc and gets 100% dmg reduction while Pocket's Enchanter's satchel physically removes and replaces his model with the satchel, so his character is not there to interact with unlike Yamato's ult or Ivy's stone form

Good video, but I'm a bit disappointed that you didnt test stacking debuffs, cause you have multiple items that slow either the movement or the rate of fire and I think they stack on one another, however I don't know if they are additive or multiplicative but it's hard to test without a friend

LOL. You actually were a saboteur sent by the other team to infiltrate :D.

[@Surxe]

Rather than invincible I would recommend "Ethereal". Invincible implies that you can't take damage, but can still be hit/targeted by effects. Ethereal means you cannot be hit nor targeted. For instance, Ivy's Stone Farm is invincible, but still untargeteable. Ethereal shift makes you both invincible and untargeteable.

[@conrad3066]

Were deadlock gamers now

[@sadpee7710]

rather than "invincible" i think of the term "hide", which is the keyword used in dota 2, valve's other moba game. you are hidden away somewhere, not present on the battlefield. i doubt they're going to call it that in deadlocked but we'll see. untargetable is another word used in dota but in that game it's doesn't necessarily mean you're invulnerable too

[@XViper123]

Would be interested to see how Ivy's ult works in conjunction with some of these things.

[@KevinFranzen-m3y]

Any info on stacking of slows? I can´t find anything about it. From what I tested in the sandbox so far, only the strongest slow applies (overriding lesser slows). Same for both movement and fire rate. For example, does Point Blank, Mystic Slow, and Inhibitor stack? I think not. The one thing that does seem to stack is Point Blank + Kelvins Slow Beam, as it basically makes enemies stand still when you have maximum stacks and shoot them with PB.
