I hate how seemingly weak they made Deathwing. I think his abilities need a faster wind up time and the Protection after armor breaks should be built in.
I think inherent protection on plate-loss would be good, but they really can't make him much faster - his permanent crowd control immunity means dodging is the *only* counterplay.
@@kylekonop4801except his abilities feel like they do zero damage. Especially for siege damage. Your telling me the villain from wow that literally created canyons and destroyed entire chunks of cities. Can’t do more damage to a tower with a fully channeled q then a li Ming combo?
@@Waldo13453 Same way Diablo's abilities seem to do zero damage for the strongest of the Prime Evils - this is a MOBA that's attempting to be balanced, not an accurate recreation of each character. No, Murky and Raganaros are nowhere near the same power level, but for this game they need to be.
Deathwing is just one of those niche and specialised heroes you have to pick late into a draft game to really dominate with, because as long as you have roots and stun support from your teammates, his Molten Breath blows teams up.
Idk. While the comeback was fun, getting taunted and polymorphed off cooldown was very frustrating for me. Two point and click CCs that could be chained with very little counter play. But it created a great RUclips video.
@@foxs49er oh yeah, I would have hated being a dive assassin like Genji, but as a tank I got the opportunity to set up some great plays... Especially with haymaker and body blocking. Also it wasn't a blowout
It also doesn't help that you don't pick of half the regen globes. But yes, I did already say in your last video that the level 1 W talent is useless compared to the armor talent. Not for lack of trying. They nerfed W cooldown, damage and the level 1 used to give 100% damage return. The only way I can see it working is if they let the level 4 talent heal you as well. Not that they update a lot but it could maybe happen. Again, there is a third build. That being ranged but focused on talents that aren't Q. It can work but it can be hard to pull off. Also, it's best to never go full melee with Abathur mines or heavy poke since you could get the regen talent and stay ranged and pretty much make them useless.
[T2321111,Deathwing] When you load in, press 1. When you want to land from Dragonflight, press W (and never Q). Deathwing just has too little health to make playing melee worth it.
Hey MFPallytime, good to see you after so long, I honestly had forgoten about this channel but I hope you're doing well! Your voice sounds so different from 5 years ago, it's crazy almost didn't recognize you.
I really want you to try drop build! You basically become a stealth assassin as you're dropping in from out of nowhere from the sky. Just take all drop talents, the invincible at 1 and arrival of a god at 20, not the long term damage boost. My favorite build ever in this game :)
Pally, I think you may have missed some stuff with your talent picks, or maybe there is another build. but with the Talents Dragon Soul, Heat Wave (which you picked) and Death Drop, Ruination, Gaze Onto Destruction, and Arrival of a God (which you did not pick in this video) you get talents that work in both World Breaker and Destroyer form. Picking those talents allows you to play as both melee and ranged. I think playing a hybrid with those talents allows you to better handle teams like these, with slippery movements and characters you don't want to me ranged with.
I learned DW on his melee build back when fire and melee were both viable. I loved it. Then they nerfed his HP (it was kinda needed, but they went too far) to make q build with range stance pretty much the only viable way to play. I'm just not good at finding those choke points to put the breath in, and don't find standing back as fun. Wish this build still worked.
Granted I havent played in a while but I feel like the real shift in dwing is from melee stance to caster stance. Nearly every dwing I see is in caster stance.
The only thing to say about why this build is actually usually better than range, is people dont tend to just stand still, and none of the q talents *really* wnhance his wave clear with q more than it already does
Those are the newly adopted official terms. It's like when someone does a cover better than the original and for you, it's the "original". While the music world has Disturbed to thank for the sound of silence, We have Pally to thank for Sippy Cup and Top Hat... thanks Pally
They really need to give him some sort of talent or baked in level ten or whatever buff, like how stitches and so on do, to do more damage to waves. It wouldn't make him more of a threat to heroes, but at least then clearing waves with him isn't pain unless you go a very specific build....He's deathwing a giant dragon, he shouldn't have this much trouble with little wave minions.
I really enjoy his ranged build, with spamming E meteors on 7 and dmg boost when plates are 3 or lower on lvl 4. But I still go heal attacks on lvl 1. I just play melee with the ranged setup and it wan brawl really well.
I hate how squishy the giant dragon feels, like seriously, you are the size of the whole lane and you cant even trade with minions efficiently... I wish theyd just rethink DW completely, make him a truck, a tank, but maybe slower, keep the mount on a longer cooldown. Currently deathwing feels too hyper mobile and squishy for being a death wing
the fact pally never uses his E triggers me. that damage isn't a joke... and the slow is really good... the range is pretty okay too... should use it alot more than just auto attack and press w lol... also dead talent he used his armor like what once xD? it's a 1 min CD you shoul duse it alot more than just in combat.
Feels bad man. Pally wants to play melee Deathwing so bad but does not know how. And now he is contaminated by the brain rot that make people think it's a bad build. That was such a good game to go melee too, just press the right buttons at the right time and find the right targets.
I really don't understand Deathwing. He looks like a massive fcking dragon and... he kinda just walks around, refuses to be healed and fails to do any real damage outside of his easy-to-walk-out breath. Melee attack damage is laughable and way too slow (Stuckov deals more right away), his abilities barely do any damage. Only breath is something, so NO WONDER everyone prefers to stay back and just RAAAA at people. No wonder...
Ngl, I hate Genji as a character in overwatch AND Hots that watching Fox get murdered by Eye of Horus and Triple Tap felt kinda good. Such an annoying character/playstyle. I actually don't know what I dislike more, Genji himself or the kind of player that finds that gameplay fun, particularly in overwatch. That dash in, slippery playstyle is just so annoying. He gets too many tools to get him out of trouble that it just isn't fun to play against.
The giant, worldeating dragon hiding in the tall grass is hilarious.
Or fire checking every bush, terrified of a slug
Now I'm imagining a carbot animation where the bush doesn't even reach his ankles, but raynor is still looking all around with no idea where he is
Or the giant, world eating dragon getting inside of another dragon that is somehow even more ginormous
Wait till he fights a slug.

@@Waldo13453 I mean Deathwing can be killed by 20 random people in wow? So I don't know what to tell you.

Seeing deathwing capture the dragon knight and actually becoming a smaller dragon is hilarious
That bellow of victory when Pally capped the final dragon 🤣🤣
You know whats funny? Jimy did not even go for the talent that deals %damage.
You thought this was a Pally video? No.
This is a BigJim video.
This was one of the most fun games in quick match I've played in a while
It's the legend!!

Fox AND MattyP in the comments? Wow
I'm surprised as hell you guys got the W, to be honest. Your all's team seemed to be losing throughout the majority of the fight, lol.
horus + triple tap honestly seems like a really funny execution combo
Jim just standing in the deathwing Q like "man it's hot out here..."
3:50 "Goodbye Anduin, your dad is killing, your dad is killing you Anduin, report that, report that to someone in Stormwind, it's ducked"
🤣
9:25 "*gasp!* Triple Tap killed me and I had my whole team around me! AAAAAAAAAHHHH"
This just happened while I was reading your comment!!!
Deathwing turning into the Dragon Knight has something poetic about it.
When I play melee, I go Destroyer's Rampage. The damage ramps up very nicely!
Thumbs up for the "Prometheus school of running away from things" 11/10.

11:41 that's some cartoonishly good timing.
Funniest part of the whole vid.
A little rework wouldn't hurt him. Some QoL changes, some tweaks, and he's good as new.
That abathur was really good
9:33 He said the thing! Thank you Pally!
[T2321111,Deathwing]
When you load in, press 1.
When you want to land from Dragonflight, press W (and never Q).
Deathwing just has too little health to make playing melee worth it.
that lane pressure was relentless
Legit choked on my dinner when Pally started shouting about the best ultimate of HotS: triple tap!
what a come back! looooooved that last play!
You are my favorite content creator of all time :) just wanted you to know. Need to throw you my prime sub next time i see you on
16:58 -- Pally, press 2. Pally. PALLY. PALLYYY!! HIT THE 2 KEY! PLEEEEASE **splat** .... 😐

Hell of a game! Melee Deathwing really is a tough build to play, especially if the other team has a lot of ranged heroes.
I really don't get how deathwing's biggest enemies are lane minions
Pally, I think you may have missed some stuff with your talent picks, or maybe there is another build. but with the Talents Dragon Soul, Heat Wave (which you picked) and Death Drop, Ruination, Gaze Onto Destruction, and Arrival of a God (which you did not pick in this video) you get talents that work in both World Breaker and Destroyer form.

I think playing a hybrid with those talents allows you to better handle teams like these, with slippery movements and characters you don't want to me ranged with.
It's best to save your sippy cups for right before you fly, you heal super fast that way and get all your armor back.
I learned DW on his melee build back when fire and melee were both viable. I loved it. Then they nerfed his HP (it was kinda needed, but they went too far) to make q build with range stance pretty much the only viable way to play. I'm just not good at finding those choke points to put the breath in, and don't find standing back as fun. Wish this build still worked.
all i want for deathwing is for him to be inherently good at waveclear in the early game, and SOME melee survivability
Granted I havent played in a while but I feel like the real shift in dwing is from melee stance to caster stance. Nearly every dwing I see is in caster stance.
The only thing to say about why this build is actually usually better than range, is people dont tend to just stand still, and none of the q talents *really* wnhance his wave clear with q more than it already does
after all these years, i still don't know the actual names of top hat and sippy cup
Those are the newly adopted official terms. It's like when someone does a cover better than the original and for you, it's the "original". While the music world has Disturbed to thank for the sound of silence, We have Pally to thank for Sippy Cup and Top Hat... thanks Pally
ngl going melee brawler against a hyper poke team was probably not the wisest of decisions lmfao
I petition that we change Raynor's name from Jim Laner to Big Jim. In memory of the best player to ever stand in dragons' breath.
Pally getting more value then you get at McDonalds
Pally reminding me that it's been years and years since Deathwing was released. :(
Turn the death dragon into hide behind your team and spray fire then wait on energy to spray again
15:43 Noooo! If only there was an activate ability to get the armour plate back!
They really need to give him some sort of talent or baked in level ten or whatever buff, like how stitches and so on do, to do more damage to waves.

Well. I guess I won’t be doing melee deathwing ever again. The need to make those armor plates more meaningful for that to be an option.
He was a double dragon at the end!
@Pally: Have you tried that fan project game Resurgence of the Storm? Would be interesting to see this in comparison.
Probably because they nerfed his health pool to the point that he's genuinely not hard to kill for ANY character.
7:30 kicking BigJim in the LittleJim
Can you try the ranged version talents that arent the Q build
Melee Deathwing feels way better than the Q build, I played it yesterday and it was so much fun and did really well
Melee build has its benefits but it isn't great against enemies like those. Great video!
Can you do a third build for Deathwing? Maybe see if there is in fact a build for melee that can do well? >D
One day you'll play whitemane and I'll be so happy
Looks like jim lane-er change his name to big jim
What a great match!!!

Yo That was tough!
Pally, when is the black myth wukong playthrough coming? 🙂↕️
the fact pally never uses his E triggers me. that damage isn't a joke... and the slow is really good... the range is pretty okay too... should use it alot more than just auto attack and press w lol...
also dead talent he used his armor like what once xD? it's a 1 min CD you shoul duse it alot more than just in combat.
i can't believe how many times you flew instead of using your shield!!!! IT GIVES YOUR ARMOR BACK!!!
USE THE 2 ! XD dont hold on to it for ffs
Right! There were several times he could have automatically got two plates back.
Didn’t he have a talent that gave him attack speed?
YES!
God Deathwing feels weak.
Probably becuase blizzard caring about the IP died out...
Feels bad man.
Pally wants to play melee Deathwing so bad but does not know how.
And now he is contaminated by the brain rot that make people think it's a bad build.
That was such a good game to go melee too, just press the right buttons at the right time and find the right targets.
Can Deathwing take the Dragon Knight?
I guess yes, now that I'm nearing the end of the video.
Poor DW. He’s just plain bad. He can’t even eat a freaking naked slug. Shameful.

Omg pally nitpicking about not landing in time for a regen globe, but totally ignores like 8 globes right beside him. 🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷
First, plus first time seeing "seconds ago" in yt video :D

Aba mine mains don't deserve to be allowed to play the game
I just cannot enjoy playing death wing given how bad his lane clear is ;-)
when is there more elden ringggggg ♥
