Just stack it back into healing, since the way it works is it heals the incoming damage 1:1. It not actually preventing damage it's just healing it as soon as it comes in.
Strongly agree with this. What’s crazy is sometimes people think Loki isn’t as good as the other healers but I’d compare what I was doing and what they were doing and I always knew was was a bigger impact some of those games and yet the stats wouldn’t show it.
@@monkeyman123321 The way most likely works is that it multiplies incoming damage by -1 (or any other negative value) which means the damage is not being dealt at all and is instead taken as healing, making it much stronger than just healing back
As a Loki main, I find this information to be a good rule of thumb for others to follow. I remember just yesterday seeing a Loki player in QP and his clones were shooting a wall. As a person who knows how he works it frustrated me. He's unique and doesn't follow conventional healing norms, but I feel he is also the most versatile support hero currently in the game.
Yes I agree. He is not just a simple healer, could he be played that way? Sure, but out of all other healers, Loki has depth and counter play that is unmatched to others.
Though sometimes loki clones might be shooting at nonsense because the Loki player is running back from spawn. Just semi randomly firing can still provide heals for team mates nearby. I've also somehow gotten kills, I assume some dive squishy was trying to rough up my clone and got hit by the blindfire.
Thanks for the insight. Yeah I keep getting ragged on because of the numbers, and I wondered why, but now that I see thoroughly how the Regeneration Domain works, it makes sense. Thank you!
High numbers don't matter as much as you think. It's mostly plays. Getting tired of "Loki please switch", these non-Loki's need to show respect for their king.
Agreed but numbers do matter a bit, mainly for farming ult charge. While using healing domain to block preventative damage is good and should be used especially for ults, early fight just waiting for the tank or tanks to get low and placing a healing domain on them can help farm your ult faster, allowing you to get that first copied support ult (typically) to gain the advantage. Other than that, constant triple uptime is very good for loki.
The most important number to me as a Loki main is having the least amont of deaths LOL i could have a great match and very low numbers! the important thing is win or lose! ✨ love the Loki videos :)
I think one thing that will never change is the love from teammates to Loki (outside of your friend) Loki might not get the 25,000 heal games but… He’s going to drop that circle (which I always call the well of radiance lol) in a clutch time when your team mate is going to die. Often as well the kills you get are going to be the ones that matter the most. When the team can’t get that last hit on the iron man and you or the homie clone clean it up. The ability to pocket Loki and drop in on the payload or circle to save your last team or teleport yourself there for a final stand is unmatched. The ability to decide in the last minute to use your super for dps or defense is unmatched.
I feel all of this. Loki has so much depth and counter play. I still get people in matches not understanding or appreciating the Loki life. That's why I have been making videos like this to break down what he can do and what makes him unmatched to other healers.
This is a huge discovery. I always felt like I was doing crazy heals some games and I’d watch the other healer just doing little heals the whole game while I was blasting people with heals and saving the whole team from a special but at the end I’d have 10k or 15k heals while the Luna snow or cloak and dagger would have 20k. Great job bro 👏🏼
This inspired me to give Loki another try. I gave him a go a few days ago and felt like I did pretty well and my team got the W, but I checked my stats at the end and saw the other healer totally gapped me and I assumed I just got carried
Yeah this can happen a lot. The damage you can prevent with saves is unmatched. You can save your team from a Scarlet ult if you have you domain down. No other healer can do that.
Thank you for this guide, I will admit I thought loki was a niche healer by numbers when i was climbing but I never flamed them because I would see the player trying their best. This guide gave me a better insight of the player I would need to play around with so thank you. The tip about his healing not going up was a very nice bit of info
Loki railgun If you space your lokis (idk) 5-10 meters apart in a line down a hallway or straight it means you can’t get hit and they can give a huge regen zone and they have a constant stream because of the placing
I'm honestly real glad to see this, I've been a Loki main since I started but mess with other support sometimes and after seeing my overall stats be quite a bit better with Cloak, my win rate was still much higher with Loki and I was confused. That domain absolutely changes the outcome of games being able to save Cloak or Luna from an Iron Man or Magneto Ult, then they get all the healing points
I feel like there are alot of hidden stats for healers out of all the character types. Like Rocket having 20+ res in a game is a nice thing to tell your team. They should just report the healing return from Runes into the healing stat. Since it's healing the damage as soon as it comes in, I wonder if it's a bug or just overlooked by the game devs.
Position clones near teammates and objectives. Take high ground. That's it. Ez heals. Putting clones away from teammates don't help the team. Watch out for moonlight.
I always felt a bit self conscious about my healing numbers at the end of a match, i knew it had something to do with how the abilities count numbers. Yes i was using all the techniques shown, as well as assassinating other supports
As a Strategist main I have never cared for how high my healing is i only cared for doing a good job to h elp the team win (^ ^) XD call me a bit of a push over but i like being helpful over just healing but i am surprised that the regeneration stone doesnt display the amount of damage converted to healing - contributing to your healing amount XD
The damage being blocked makes so much sense cuz sometimes I feel like I've been aggressively healing all match most of the time as Loki and the healing numbers are low despite me being functionally a healbot and I just get confused. Like I know I was keeping them alive that match??? I don't normally care about the numbers (much) but that was causing me actual bafflement thanks for the clarity lol
@CNPurple I'm aware but I play with so many people not aware. 😂😂😂 When I was playing tank, and wasn't getting heals, I took accountability and asked the healers if I'm pushing too far, adjusted and won.
The talk about number at the end of the match is is exactly why stats aren't everything. Why prevented damage doesn't get tracked as damage blocked is beyond me though. That would help track the good plays that Loki can do.
Thanks for this. Even after getting MVP and constantly healing my team, my heals still suck in comparison to the other healer. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I like putting my pocket Loki behind the tank while he soaks up damage, and every time he's full of health, the shots will go through the damage anyone getting too close.
All fun and games, until your teammates start jumping around non-stop, from side to side, and it's harder to heal them properly without being able to shoot at the ground -.-
my favorite is ppl telling me to switch bc they are flanking and dying cuz bad… yet i’ve negated damn near every ult in the game with my runes. tip from me: Runes work through walls. So if your tank is walled off by groot, drop a clone on the wall and rune. voila
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have lord on loki and got crapped on at the end of the game because i had like 10k damage and only like 12k healing so my team was like "you should heal more" BRO I SAVED YOU BRO IRON MAN ULT LIKE 3 TIMES
I hope nobody gets discouraged by Loki doing small healing numbers. I like to take angles and do the Pocket Loki making plays by either sneaky kills or clutch saves. The only problem is that clutch saves don’t get any credit here only because we aren’t exactly healing 🙂↕️
After playing a while, I noticed stat paddings doesn't really matter anymore as a strategist. if your Loki is consistently saving teammates with your shift. Doing massive plays with your Q and doing good amount of healing and damage, you're already doing great! Sure, having our Shift contribute to our stats would be amazing but I think that's not as important as the biggest elephant in the room right now (C&D, Luna and Invis Woman ult being overtuned.)
Yeah I understand this. As long as you're playing your best and you know you're doing well. THATS what matters, not the points at the end of the match, but it would still be nice to have a stat somewhere to show how well you are doing in that. (All healers kinda need to be toned down a bit tbh. This 3 healer meta kinda gross lol) Helps DPS Loki shine tho! 😁
I mostly play on PC but was playing on PS5 a little bit last night and was in silver and I couldn't stop laughing at a Loki who placed his two clones right next to him and stood in the middle of the 3, and everyone just ignored him like it was 3 clones.
Domain shouldn't count as damage blocked imo, cause it literally converts damage to healing. The problem really is that the overflow health isn't counted for the stat
The only stat that should ever matter for players is win rate because caring about elims or dmg/healing done is a slippery slope to not actually understanding what is impacting your games
My main tip is to spam clones in psylock ult, also healing domain if you have it. She ends up doing nothing lol. Also if they have a moon knight play smarter with your clones and place behind cover or they will be perma killed
Forgive me for sounding like a novice but what do you mean by spam clones? Are you casting as many clones in the zone as you can, spam firing into the team, or casting the Rune zone?
@@Fromavyn2xaen yeah, drop clones in the ult, her ultimate targest players in range, and it only does a certain amount of attacks, the clones can soak it up, so ensure you have two up inside it, you can use rune if you want. Can help teammates not die to it.
You always want to move the opposite direction of your attacker when you use right click. It lets the clone soak the dmg that wouldve knocked you out of stealth. Use your right click for on the spot emergency clones for healing. I use it more that way than i do for escape. Communicate with your other strategist for self heals. The invis healing is almost useless. So lokis self healing is almost non existent. You need to be saving left shift for emergencies. Not healing yourself. Lokis best against and with dive comps. His primary fire gets max value healing frontline while dmg'ing enemy. Dive comps also apply more pressure so enemy has less time for clones. Then against dive the aoe on primary makes it easy to hit mobile divers. If you have clones up uou can almost solo any diver besides spiderman.
It does not. You can test this out by going to the training mode. Stand in front of a shooting robot, use the domain, and when you hit full health you'll see that that the stat does not move.
everytime I played loki and then we lose, i always getting blamed bcs of my healing output not high enough compared to c&d or luna even though i really focus on healing and not trying to flank, I want to explain it to them about that regeneration domain but nah waste of time lol
Idk about y’all but when the game ends I get a stat screen that includes damage prevented and it’s usually quite high when I play loki so I thought we knew that domain counted towards that
Where do you see this? Are you talking about the "Damaged Blocked" stat? If so, in testing and as you can see in the video. It sadly actually doesn't show any build up when preventing damage.
@@CNPurple usually when the round ends, it shows damage prevented as an endgame stat near the healing stats. you cant see it in the menu shown in the video, only upon the conclusion of the match.
@@CNPurple scratch that, just hit tab in the middle of a match and look directly next to the damage. it shows Damage Blocked and it counts up each piece prevented by the runestone
@ Damage Blocked IS the stat. it wont tell you it was specifically the runestone but it IS the stat. it sees prevented damage as "blocked" and registers it as such (i played a match less than 2 minutes ago to check, the damage blocked stat increased whenever i threw my runestone out.)
Big reason why using your overall healing as a metric of success is a lie. Your goal as a support is to keep your team alive. The only important thing about healing vs damage prevention is building ult, but i find i build ult very quickly as loki, so having "less healing" is irrelevant if my team is staying alive and im getting ult
Also the more damage your team takes, the more healing you get, so a lot of healing can be an indication that your team is dealing less damage than the other team
Every single mf needs to read about Goodhart's law. I can't stress it enough. @whoeverreads and didn't know: >:( its also not enough, you need to educate yourself MORE. we all have the moral obligation to be intelligent. @uploader: there's also so much more nuance within this game that can't even be quantified or tracked. You're on the good track.
I always know that Loki can't heal much, but his rune is very very useful. So for the love of god, Loki players, stop using the rune for dumb thing. On gold rank the other week and has a LORD loki who facecheck a punisher with rocket buff, then pop his rune out to JUMP AWAY, not even use the clone to teleport. What the heck is that even about ?
Long ass segment just to say he blocks damage instead of healing with one move. Like who cares? Your video is how to heal better as loki but that was a waste for time, and you're just explaining basic stuff
Great informative video professor Loki. Pocket Loki tech lol
☝🤓
I think the game should register the damage prevented as "damage blocked" so we'd at least have a number to work with
@tjhall42 Yeah, I didn't think of this. That would be nice to see.

You know what really grinds my gears? When I copy our support's ult, and they use it at the exact same time
I feel this. lol 🥲
I bet they are trying to counter ult based off the audio cue thinking you're on the other team. Or just clueless lol
@@tuckster907 even in that case that's a low iq move to sup ult as soon as an enemy sup ult.

So you healing area you put on the ground will save you from most ults in the game. Check out my Counter play guide for Loki to see them.
Loki is the number 1 troll
wouldn't it be better to let them take dmg before the field on purpose just to build more ultimate charge
Doing both are great tbh. Its all how you want to play it. Just always try to have it ready for ults.

@whoeverreads and didn't know: >:( its also not enough, you need to educate yourself MORE. we all have the moral obligation to be intelligent.
@uploader: there's also so much more nuance within this game that can't even be quantified or tracked. You're on the good track.
I didnt know that healing didnt count after maxing out. I always have, compared to the other support, lower numbers, even tho im healing my ass off.
Well now you know! Hope my videos help you out more as well! 😁
I always know that Loki can't heal much, but his rune is very very useful. So for the love of god, Loki players, stop using the rune for dumb thing. On gold rank the other week and has a LORD loki who facecheck a punisher with rocket buff, then pop his rune out to JUMP AWAY, not even use the clone to teleport. What the heck is that even about ?
Now thats just crazy lol
omg apandah 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
God i hate this mf he never dies and I have to physically go up to his gem things to break them because I play iron fist
You're that type of iron fist who throws the game 😂😂😂
@ you got that from just what i said?
Yes, I've seen Iron Fist players throwing the game by constantly diving, only to get countered by healers every time 😂😂😂
Long ass segment just to say he blocks damage instead of healing with one move. Like who cares? Your video is how to heal better as loki but that was a waste for time, and you're just explaining basic stuff
Thanks for the input. Not everyone understands the basics and I like to try to cover that, but Ill take this into consideration. 😁
? This was not long at all. 😂 Some of these videos out here be like 10-20 mins.
