[@undefined7172]

Everywhere mast goes, there’s always a close range bully character

[@QDRG64]

5:01 the shortcut is alt+1/2/3/4 to level up skills.

[@flowball90]

Holding the key works to level up skills aswell 🤙

[@jackbukraba6570]

And pressing tab, which I find a lot easier.

[@Morphos_XL]

No matter how many times he says "Abrams" I only hear "Blue Hellboy" lmfao

[@MastYT]

he really is blue hellboy

[@joeybobbson2622]

He's not beating the allegations 😭

[@Morphos_XL]

@@MastYT he is! Hopefully they'll make his 3 more useful tho, you didn't use it at all for almost the entire video! :P

[@jamiekyleslss]

kinda reminds me of beast more than hell boy with the scholar get up 🤣🤣

[@R_o_o_k_i_n_g_t_o_n]

​@@Morphos_XLdude his 3 is SUPER useful my guy! It makes it so you dont even need bullet armor or spirit armor AND gives you even more regen adding to in my abrams build, like 500hp a second on a 3.2k hp build when you add my lifesteal healing

[@supersanttu7951]

Killing the Mid Boss gives everyone on the team -50% respawn time on their next death, that's why they came back so fast

[@firstername]

i need some bebop cheese mast... ive been masticating these deadlock vids lately, i'm glad you're enjoying it lol

[@MastYT]

oh i have bebop cheese

[@frankmills1917]

5:29 I love these subtle animations. The way the character leans ever so slightly.

[@Astaerel]

Just finished the Mordred vid on Smite 2, I'm hoping to get my first PC to play some Deadlock eventually. It looks so fun

[@jackbukraba6570]

I hope you do man. Actually the funniest game I’ve played in years

[@Cyleツ]

This game looks like so much fun! I cant wait to play for myself when it comes out, but until then it has been great watching you play and get better!

[@Iamanime-z9r]

you can play with invite

[@ljjebi]

Play it now yeye, but if you want it more polished then you can wait. Game's a ton of fun tho!!

[@SilentAssassin01234]

Play it now! It is so easy to get access, just had to the discord or Reddit.

[@orrbital]

You can play now just need an invite from someone who has access

[@thegiantratthatmakesalloft9415]

Enjoy it now while everyone's not sweaty yet

[@henrybaxter9432]

Abrams tier 3 for his ult is really good, it’s when you go up in the air. So against delayed cc like wraith ult and warden root you just ult and leave, or if teamfighting ult and up down. Definitely worth rushing against most team comps. Love the deadlock content mast, can’t wait until you’re leagues better than me :)

[@sc3961]

28:16 Bro that shotgun shot that just broke the box sounded like... A freaking sniper rifle. Like a Vindicta ult haha...

[@relyT.63]

For ppl that dont know aswell as mast. You get your ultimate/4 at the 3k souls mark as compared to lvls on games like smite. The jungle camps spawn in at 7 minutes and the difficulty of them is easy-medium-hard, shown by either an arrow, an arrow with one line under or an arrow with 2 lines under. Hope this helps! :)

[@caycelusinger3580]

I've been playing mobas forever, and this game got my friend, who never enjoyed playing them to play one more than i have. This game has been so much fun and is a breath of fresh air. The only thing i am iffy on is the item system, but im pretty sure that's just a me problem because i haven't taken the time to really read each item but as of now its a little confusing

[@raffibarrows3584]

From my experience with Abrams, melee charge is a must take. Really increases your heavy lunge range and damage. Also reloads your gun when you hit a charge heavy hit.

[@evilme73]

I've only got

[@nicolasgomez5207]

[@PMgameplays]

Love your content man, keep up the good work

[@LackingClover]

Ay thanks for uploading this while I was watching that Smite 2 vid, I was worried about getting bored at work

[@jackbukraba6570]

New mast deadlock, new hype.

[@ChillyWing]

Deffo think you should try Dakka Ivy. Max out on fire rate and tank stuff, she becomes the ultimate tower destroyer

[@nise5412]

mast i dont know if you know but instead of spamming dash try dash sliding and dash jumping marco style just released a video about movement if you want to check that out

[@nise5412]

u can tell when ur able to dash jump when it glows green on the crosshair

[@sleepydee1745]

great gameplay man! tip for movement. when you use shift to use any characters dodge/dash you’ll see your stamina bar will turn blue for a moment, if you time it right you can jump after and slide for more speed and get further. also on any character when you slide you’ll see a green infinity sign under your ammo/stam. you have infinite ammo when sliding. it helps when your low on ammo and need to get that last few shots in to finish off the kill.

[@tfrenzy7776]

The mid boss gives them faster health regen as well as a shorter respawn timer (50% faster) :) also minions get 50% more health and the players can earn more souls per minion kill, you can tell who still has their “mid buff” by the yellow symbol by their tags up top! Glad to see you’re having fun on this game, with it in alpha I get to vicariously play through you so thank you mast! Look forward to tomorrows vid

[@mythmakroxymore1670]

Abrams? That’s clearly Medic from TF2. Look at the jawline and eyebrows!

[@JohnSmith-wl7gf]

It's an obvious homage. Warden is also clearly soldier, McGinnis engie, and there are "McMahon Co" ads in the initial startup area. This is Team Fortress 3 essentially

[@zakrudroy]

dude we thought Abrams was the worst character in the game and then fought one who was insane and kicked our teams butt... Alt then the number of the ability levels it so ult is alt + 4

[@jackbukraba6570]

You can tab-*hit whatever key* to level. I’m sure someone else already said it but thought I’d still share.

[@wazax0286]

I love the videos and the game, ty Mast

[@Gork862]

If you want to unlock an ability you can just press the key for it and it will automatically unlock it if possible. So if you wanted to ult at 5:05 you could just press your ult button and it will unlock, then press it again and it will activate.

[@vvvawdad1767]

Fr?

[@defnotsmoj6760]

Does he know how to dash jump? my eyes hurt when he dash twice

[@armadillolizard711]

10:40 "I can't go too deep here, or I get knocked up"

[@jordanschmitt9412]

i know maxing the 3 gives you giga regen but imo it's def worth putting 1 point in the 1, 2, and 4 before maxing it as the cd reduction on all those is very valuable and lets you go brawl constantly to make use of your early game strength as abrams

[@thebyrd6119]

41:22 Mid objective give your team the "rejuvinator" which give everyone on your team a shorter respawn timer for one life

[@xNexiz]

You can fast level abilities wir "Alt" + "1,2,3,4"

[@aspicytunaroll]

Not sure if youve found it yet, but there is a soul orb vending machine between orange and yellow lines (I think on the sapphire flame side) that if you melee it, it gives you 10 souls for some health.

[@Lucifer-yk7zl]

Best counter to Abrams so far is literally just press F lmao

[@VSastrocompasss]

Wooo whoo. Those smite mouse 🖱 wiggles

[@stevenha5344]

Hey mast instead of the speed active you should build cold front instead. The slow works really well with the charge

[@henrybaxter9432]

And frees up a gun spot!

[@thebyrd6119]

Im not sure if you know, but you can slide after a dash for a little extra distance, and if you jump after a dash you'll go further at the cost of two stamina instead of one (and you can slide after that as well)(also it goes further faster than just using two dashes separately)

[@michaeldaniels7951]

This looks really fun. Any idea when it's supposed to drop?

[@kyejohnson55]

Panicked a little when we got a smite video, thought id be losing out on the deadlock fix

[@MastYT]

I'm honestly more hooked on deadlock than any game I've ever played

[@tacolord2561]

@@MastYT really like deadlock myself, just wish the map was a smidge more vibrant, as it is now its just a bunch a grey buildings, but outside of that the game looks so fire

[@MakoMankanshoku2STARS]

​​@@tacolord2561hopefully it's because the game's not finished yet, once the game's fully done we'll see some changes

[@user-jn7ic7un1e]

@@MastYTplease keep uploading it. Smite 2 is so disappointing

[@andremartinez418]

Mast, bebop has a 2.5% damage stack per god hit on his bomb and with enough stacks and a cd reset item absolutely nuke people late game. Think it would be a fun cheese video to watch

[@loganbradley1184]

As a smite fan I want smite but as a mast fan I want deadlock cuz it’s probably a better career choice. The internal conflict is real.

[@GoodChimkin]

yeah, the fact that it's already have peak 90k ccp at the current state is crazy

[@SoleFern]

Mid boss reduces respawn times for one death

[@orlandonieves652]

Dr. Mundo if he learned how to read

[@bishopwalrus8513]

So onw thing you can for melee heros thats nice is canceling your dash. In a dash there is a time where you cant melee, since you are locked in animation. Sliding mid roll cancels this. So you can roll to close the gap, slide to cancel the animation, and then immediately punch them

[@darkmatter8]

26:26 you can keep shooting while you’re rooted you could’ve possibly lived with all that dmg and bullet life steal

[@oddbutgod]

To unlock the skill you just hold the ability button down. To upgrade its alt plus #

[@SandScor48]

this game is so fun to watch

[@Garrettnash1234]

melee charge is a pretty good item for Abrams i think. its just melee reload

[@ambralemon]

i already main this guy, such a good comfort pick for me. and no i don't build melee, i build for gun dmg

[@TenaciousTinkerer]

I believe you can quickly level a skill by holding tab, then pressing the key for the skill. You can go into the sandbox to try it out real quick to make sure but I believe that is how it works. It also works for the upgrades too.

[@MastYT]

thanks, i tested it out and both tab and alt work for it

[@tomanonymii736]

Watched you for smite back in the days, but nowadays the game is just too dead for me. So really cool to see you playing this now man

[@oddjr]

Try sliding after a dash! It makes you slippery and harder to hit. Shift > Ctrl

[@MonkeyCurler]

You can hit alt + the nimber to level / unlock a skill btw

[@bano7398]

Mundo goes where he pleases

[@Itscarl88]

you can just press and hold the button to unlock an ability. it doesnt work on adding ranks though

[@ds2sofs]

You should definitely consider shift + space into crouch slide combo when you feel like you can 100 the enemy. Doing that before burning my skills changed my engagements completely, and people don't expect you breathing down their neck in 400ms it takes to execute from half the lane

[@colintownsend6190]

i want an invite so bad ps love you mast ur vids are awesome

[@TheAssOfEternity]

If you're on Reddit apparently there's some threads where you can ask to get an invite, otherwise try your luck with the Steam discussion boards for the game. The wait times are PRETTY abysmal for the invite to come through, just be aware.

[@LackingClover]

Anybody can invite their steam friends to the game broski

[@Tangy_Horizon]

Add me a terrific_divot7 and I'll give you an invite

[@RonnyFakename]

I see 4 control settings for use item but no items to buy. Its got me wondering wtf.

[@NTayls80]

I hate playing against this character! I got on deadlock today for the first time and got wrecked by this -god- guy in my second game. RIP confidence But man… Deadlock feels great! It’s basically a fully polished game already… I’m still upset about the progress of Smite 2 and will probably refrain from playing it more until they get a lot of the basic stuff figured out. It’s still a rough mess imho

[@caleblecrow2207]

Bonk boi

[@legrestti]

Abrams seem's so strong xD

[@Xyberlix]

You are running past sooo many unsecured souls on the ground from people who have died (shows up as blue circles on the map). Huge one at 32:15 but there were times earlier as well when there was like 3-4 orbs next to each other. That's probably another 2-4k easy souls just ignored. D:

[@erenokumus6975]

Do you do invites for the game

[@Ridku13]

6:54 how did he shot that bullet when he had 0 bullets and waa still reloading?

[@willchau5398]

Abrams doesnt have to go through the full animation, he can just load one and fire

[@austinwhaley816]

You need to use your 2 to run away at times

[@thisguy9569]

How do you find your build? I searched through browse builds and couldn't find it

[@eduardamay3568]

Hey you got an invite for the game?

[@deaganvg8888]

Holding alt the pressing the skill levels it xx

[@colbymyers920]

So completely noob at this can you make a video explaining how lane’s and roles work in the game, I fully understand moba lore but I have absolutely no clue what’s going on in this game and would appreciate you breaking down how lanes/roles work in this game.

[@colbymyers920]

Like I get smite/predecessor but what in the fuck is going on.

[@GoodChimkin]

you can watch Eskay video for now, she did a great job explaining this game

[@ds2sofs]

What do you mean? You have to be a bit more specific with what confuses you, if you don't get the lanes/roles then don't worry. There aren't clearly defined roles in the game as far as I know, a character can lean into more supportive/DPS/tanky styles but there's no restriction on what kind of niche you have to fill in your teamcomp

[@jordanschmitt9412]

there aren't any set roles or lanes yet, game meta is still developing.

[@sentient_otter_322]

There is no lane or role, there is definitely no jungler since jungle spawn after a few minutes into the game. Basically you'll be randomly put in a lane, either as solo or duo, if you are party queueing there's a higher chance of duo. Don't focus too much on role just focus on finding a hero that fits your playstyle and learn about that hero build

[@duckking6781]

can you ads in deadlock?

[@derekcunningham6032]

Can you switch with shoulder you're shooting over because I see a lot of times that he should totally be switching to the other shoulder if you can but if you can't I really don't like that

[@GoodChimkin]

i don't think you can, atleast for now. that would be a great feature to implement tho

[@jerinsharif1725]

Tried to watch the smite 2 video after this and I can’t do it. I’m dreadlocked in baby

[@Label07]

The hotkey for activating ult is alt+f4.

[@shadowhunter6391]

Yeah, this champ is a bit of a problem. I got 2 games with 30 kills on him....

[@Aysten_]

queue with a friend & try seven + ivy ult combo

[@talosisoursavior3061]

Day 95 of asking on behalf of that other guy for Bacchus adc with full mage adc build/attack speed so late game when autoing you become a beyblade

[@LethargicSin]

i might start playing deadlock tbh, Smite 2 is fun at first but after a bit you start to realise how mediocre it is and pretty trash outside of the new amazing graphics. Deadlock looks like one of those games that dies after a few months though like paladins

[@Cruddyhorse]

I can't forgive Hi-Rez for essentially wiping the slate for really no good reason, I don't think it's anything other than greed that pushed them to not make Smite 2 purely an engine update. I say that as someone who has played smite since it's beta days. Plus Valve games are pretty much a once in a generation event now. I don't think it will die, game still is in an alpha-ish state for now so you can't really say.

[@Pistallion1]

Play deadlock and you'll see how good it is. Nothing like Paladins. Ill agree, looking at the game it doesn't seem too much better than the rest but playing it you will see its on a different level

[@mortenjensen2605]

i love the idea of this game, but the execution is jjust horrible to put it mildly. controls are not sharp, and the current balance of the game is just non existing, ive played roughly 50 hours myself and im usually into MOBA's (smite and lol). but this game i wont be playing any further, guns in a moba shouldnt ever had been conceived as an idea.
