SKYE CAN ACTUALLY HEAL? | Paladins Gameplay

[@xtriplet23x]

God that match was so intense. My Inara gameplay during that could have easily been better but I didn't know how to deal with the double tank. Especially with the Terminus pretty much blocking every shot I wanted to hit on Khan or low HP targets. Honestly, If I didn't have my flanks helping me out during that fight especially our Skye to act as a pseudo healer while our Furia wasn't a part of the battle, that would have been easily lost. And thank god I went with my Sustain build. XD Very Fun match. Enjoyed every minute of it. (Especially being thrown off the map by the Khan half the time XD)

[@andrewchoo8672]

Against a double tank with Term on point, use Impasse behind Term, not in front of him. Plan ahead, so once he's 20 units in front of you, put down your Warder's Field to cripple him. He'll have to destroy the Field before getting to you. You can use the Field as a circular barrier so you attack him at a different angle, and let your dps do dmg at another angle.

[@xtriplet23x]

@@andrewchoo8672 I was getting a difficult time doing that since impasse with the build I was running makes the ability heal me so I could get the self-sustain in case my Furia blessing or Skye's smoke bomb was on cooldown. Though I did try to make sure to seal off the Terminus when he didn't have ult on our side so we could apply pressure onto him cause he was being way too aggressive and during those times I did have impasse on the other side of him.

[@cogginsnuff]

The most important thing for playing Inara is cool down management. The only time you wanna spam all of your abilities is when it's 99% and you absolutely HAVE to contest. I don't play Cripple very often since CC is super strong right now and cauterize nerfs both mean buffs to Mother's grace, but the idea is the more or less the same. Basically you wanna rotate your cool downs so that you're only ever using one ability at a time (this also means you always have another cool down to spare in case something doesn't go to plan). There are some exceptions to this, the biggest of which is probably your wall, it's the one thing you have besides your own body to protect your team mates and/or lock enemies in certain areas. Both of these situations are very opportunity reliant and can rarely be planned as part of your rotation (I would not use wall to get heals, healing whilst in Earthen Guard is much better since the increased healing from the ability applies and the heal is spread out over time both of which contribute to caut being less of a factor). Using the cripple talent you might also see some opportunities to cripple people, but you also have to be a lot more careful since she is much squishier. If you're out of cool downs or you're about to be you need to be gunning for somewhere to get out of caut and/or out of combat. This could be a corner where you can peek in and out whilst poking the point or it could be all the way in your backline. Always have an exit strategy, if you're out of places to go and your team is dying then accept your death, pick a enemy and try to take them out with you ideally do this on the point so they're not getting the time that your dead + the time it takes to respawn on the counter. You don't always need to go straight to the point and you don't always need to be on the point (if you need to be healed ideally get off the point and out of caut for a bit). Especially when you're out numbered by enemy tanks that are both on or near the point. This means there is a free lane to get into their backline, if you can mount past their frontlines (use the mounts 3rd person to see where the enemy is going) cripple their support or squishy and get the pick that's huge. Alternatively move to one side of the point to use cover whilst you poke and split the attention of the enemy, it's not a lot but it should open up an angle for your dps to do some work especially against a terminus. That's a lot of words, but trust me it's simpler than it looks on paper and you'll get a feel for it pretty quickly. Finally my biggest, simplest and favorite tip (that is also one of the reasons Inara is one of my favorite champions) is you have a w key and you have a gun. Point your gun, fire and walk at people and there aren't too many champions that will kill you before you kill them.

Lost my job today after 5 years there, so a bit panicked and worried for the future. But something enetertainin' and good like this has helped me calm down and clear my head. So once again, thank ya for the content!

[@rainer9931]

**Jenos hides face**

[@FuyuKyoshi]

Okay so, if you've been on Kami's discord, you'll know how much I've been raving about Sacrifice Io. Life Link heals, negligible, Goddess' Bessing, overnerfed but can be used. Sacrifice, keeps you alive as long as you're not dumb like me in this video. You'll get a better showing of it in an upcoming video. I was just trying it out here, I've gotten a lot better with it, but still make mistakes. Once I feel comfortable enough with the loadout and play properly, I post the loadout for kami to try, and for others can copy. Still working on it atm. I highly recommend you all try Sacrifice out, it's probably the hardest talents to execute, but with enough practice you'll see how good it is. And yes, I'm heavily pushing this since Io is currently out of meta, and everyone has written Sacrifice off.

[@candice3172]

Sacrifice can be good but its hard to keep track of where your fox is...It is usually on the point so I get teleported back to the point and die instantly. It will be fun to see how someone does good with sacrifice

[@ra6765]

I've been using sacrifice Io myself.. but mainly because I love watching her dog dies.. sorry.

[@FuyuKyoshi]

@@candice3172 it probably won't be me since I suck at the game. I play with a lot of strategy, but can never pull them off. It's important to always keep track of Luna's location and health, and take luna off point during team fights on point so you don't instantly die after you teleport. It's possible to be on point on serpent beach, and ascention peak though since it's easy to flee on those maps.

[@FuyuKyoshi]

Also make sure you go on Kami's discord to hear me argue multiple times a day about this. It's a blast.

[@ArifulIslam59]

Sacrifice triggers when you're specifically at or below 200 HP right? So it wouldn't trigger if you were at 500 HP and took a Willo shot to your face?

[@toshibg6149]

1.Her heals feel really good, almost a worthy solo healer (170k on casual) 2.Her poison bolts feel so good even without the talent 3.If you could have 2 smoke screens at the same time she would be a legit healer.

[@traceyromines4390]

I watch a lot of content creators and KamiVS is only one I take builds from best over all at giving the player the best information in current meta.

[@FuyuKyoshi]

Skye has crazy heals, but I agree she needs a second support to shine. Luckily I believe 2 support could become meta so she will be able to shine in the meta. Either furia jenos or io should do for now.

[@flameball5373]

Kyoshi64 I think seris could work too, having seris healing on point and Skye healing flanks/diving into back line

[@itsmariaa18]

honestly i played a match with her we had no tanks and no other support and i had like 150k heal and we won so depends on how good your team is also

[@John-vm2sq]

@@itsmariaa18 yeah since her heal is a static circle, your team has to understand what you're doing. It is almost similar to Furias Solar Blessing. Your team has to actively search out their own heals and position themselves accordingly. This means that queuing up in a casual match with this will have mixed results. Try and heal a flank and they'll run out of your smoke bomb looking for their next kill. Or throw a heal on point but your tank doesn't push up and stand in it. This healing build relies on your teammates being on the same page and fighting within the smoke bomb. Luckily, the smoke bomb size is quite large, so it is a bit forgiving, but this is a meme build for me. One thing that is going a bit unnoticed is how this build actually caters to on-point fights. Skye is a tank buster. So she needs to be targeting tanks and burning their health with poison bolts and zoning caps with her ult. She can still do both of that with this build. So this is, imo, an objective‐only build. Push on point with your tank. Give him constant smoke bomb heals and focus-dmg their tank. It has some survivability with being able to stealth in/out during the fight. But one thing is for sure, if you want to use this on the flanks and try to pocket heal a flanker, you guys need to be on the same page. I just dont see that coordination in casual to make Skye heals being a viable option. This is really only viable as an on-point tank support build where you continue to use Skye as a tank killer. This approach means that your flanks/dmg need to be winning their 1v1s, because you are occupied with the objective. Hard truth is that Jenos is your flank healer and there are better on-point healers. Skye should still be played as a tank killer that now has the ability to support the tank with "some" healing on point. Any expectation beyond that is really grasping at straws.

[@GabrielTobing]

Furia is the good choice.

[@thatskymagisk]

First game I had against a support Skye she ended up having way better heals than our support. She straight up went ahead and said "Nice heals loser" when stats showed up Cracked me up lmao

[@trickyrickie4381]

im not quite sure. but it looked skye still gets smoke cdr whenever kami landed poison bolts on inara wall

[@hco4203]

Maybe it works on deployables? Like Andro's reversal reset.

[@preh8028]

I thought so too at first but it didn't. You're supposed to land it on an enemy

[@anthonymuscat488]

Yes it also works on deployables, similar to meaves new predation card.

[@IntoL1ght]

From my experience it works on some deployables (i.e. Ying clone) but it doesn't work on others (i.e. Barik's turret)

[@ChiZillaaa]

I THINK it works on Luna too, but don't quote me. I'll have to pay more attention when I play.

[@WINSANITYGAMING]

If you go max Quick Smoker and RUSH chronos 3 before anything else, you can throw a new smoke immediately after your old one drops, but before you become visible again if you dance on the very edge of your smoke (stealth from smoke lasts 3 seconds when you step out, so don't hang out in the smoke, dance in and out of an edge because even if they don't get illuminate, they often can still guess and guess near the middle). Add confound 2 to the mix and you can still have two smoke bombs out at once. This is a safer choice if you have a hard time landing poison bolts or if you're up against a lot of shielding or anything that will make your bolts unreliable to land.

[@faeedis]

Kami if you can showcase a team of moji skye khan raum and any healer for a heal team

[@atharvarane]

Just had a casual where she did 110000 dmg and 117000 heals. I was best gealer as ying as 116000 heals and 96k damage. Their seris was low at 72k dmg and 90k heals. Skye Heal FTW

[@Problematist]

96k dmg and amazing heals as Ying. How?

[@atharvarane]

Problematist I usually play resonance as I cant play with focusing lens at all. Catch running flanks with the illusion bursts and ya avoid right clicking unless needed. Also rushing morale boost helps with heals.

[@caseyc1313]

Why don't you use life exchange, ying racks up a ton of healing with it

[@majjyy]

im in April 2020 and what happened to Kyoshi i havent seen him in lots of kamis new vids

[@Rakaan238]

Skye can only solo heal with a defensive grouped up team, so she doesn't have to go out of her way and risk dying to heal at longer ranges. But she can be a very good side healer, actually this patch many if not all supports can be played as side supports (IO, Jenos, Grock, even furia). Who knows, maybe 2x healer will be meta now like it was a back in beta

[@mayauppstad9883]

I prefer using quick smoker, confound and poisoner together to get the most consistent cdr without needing chronos. For those wondering i use Healing vapors (5) and Specter (1) in this build

[@nightfire2.0bob59]

What happend to the g2a promotion in the beginning? lol

[@TheBrawler456]

Aye. I actually got some sort of credit, lol. I like my build, but can understand why people go cooldown on bolts hit, and reduced bolt cooldown. Still very, very nice video on healer Skye. She was one of my first mains in the game, glad she's finally getting some sort of 'redemption' after suffering from Illuminate and a sub-par ult.

[@jeremyhorner9531]

I think skyes healing needs to be toned down some on the card or make it to where allies can only benefit from the healing every 4 seconds and keep the healing the same

[@brandonfly2475]

It is great playing as healer sky but i usually go for life steal cause standing if front and solo a raum cause that seems balanced ( it is based on keep moving hit your poison bolts have caut and wrecker to deal with health and shields but it still has a lot of luck and skill involved)

[@arwinpauloagdeppa5518]

Skye should have a loadout card that makes her kinda transparent like camouflaged? When an enemy have illuminate

[@lazyreye2471]

Bro I've been trying to tell people it's a real healer build and can solo even though solo healing with her isn't suggested Thank you Kami for showing this to everyone my highest heal so far has been 239k

[@IntoL1ght]

I will and have posted this on every Skye video. Emergency exit is almost useless because of illuminate, good game sense, and the fact that damage numbers show up on invisible targets. Just use another one point card that can be used in more situations. I personally use decrepify.

[@lukasfleischmann9330]

11:28 could this might be a hearthstone reference?

[@noahcorbett8319]

I feel like skye can actually solo heal, I don’t think you had the right loadout. My loadout allows me to throw a smoke down, hit a poison bolt and throw another one down causing two smokes down, this gives off 400-500 heals a second, almost on par with damba gourd ability, better than bowman damba no gourd ability.

[@lazyreye2471]

That's why I love this game honestly if you like cookies cutter go with overwatch I mean it's a great game I just like the flexibility of paladins and the crazy builds you can come up with and hybrid healers have been my thing since disc priests and holy shock paladins in World of Warcraft

[@ChiZillaaa]

That's actually what I LIKE about Paladins. I love that I can play Resonance Ying and heal 150k and deal 150k damage too. I love that I can shred with Skye but also be support too. It makes the game way more dynamic and fun to me and caters to a multitude of play styles.
