Signs you're in a high ELO/MMR lobby: Camps done off respawn People are actually buying active items and using them Getting parried No lane ever left unattended unless a gamewinning teamfight/midboss is taking place Bebop throwing zoning hooks out left and right
@@Salachomper I'm almost certain that this is a bug/unintended reaction due to dev alpha spaghetti where for some reason bebop's bomb is coded as a debuff and this allows for a (hopefully unintentional) interaction between bomb and debuff remover.
i just started playing deadlock and i ve a lot of experience in shooter games but none in moba and i'm seeing all of those in my lobby except the bebop one. Does that mean im in a high mmr lobby or is the skill floor increased
The Bebop one was a joke on my part, I'm usually the Bebop player in Salachomp's games and I tend to miss a lot of hooks which I rationalize post-hoc as having been "zoning hooks", which is cope on my part. But yes chances are you are in a high MMR lobby.
haha my apologies!! I've just always loved the hearthstone OST and thought they'd make a chill ambient addition to the videos. How's the game nowadays? I haven't played since castle nathria ngl
@mechanicalsilence1 sorry it's been INGRAINED in to my skull after 8 years of playing with man haha, maybe next video I'll make a counter of that instead of the 10 concordillion hooks he missed. I do hope you enjoyed the video besides that though!!
@@Salachomper it was cool, what do you think about the nerf kelvin got ? I like it cause i dont play kelvin and the 80% fire rate slow was unbearable but for kelvin mains maybe the hero is too weak.
@@mechanicalsilence1 Ah the nerf was deserved let's be honest. Frankly though I feel the character is still amazing! They're just trying to skew him in a more supportive, less cancer playstyle. He still has amazing healing, mobility and utility so I'd say he's still atleast A tier!
well the laser no buuuut the little aura around bebop that does damage too? not sure tbh! geist bomb and kelvin bomb go through the dome so it's a bit wonky
@@nickr689 sadly NOW its quite hard to discern but the mmr api used to be public and various sites like tracklock.gg helped you find your standing (I was top .48%!) Nowadays the only way to tell is if you queue times are longer and if players actually seem sapient.
In retrospect you're right lol I kinda forget it exists cause I more associate it with a supportive type of build on a surface level ngl. The name is healing booster so I kinda forget it also has some healing reduction... reduction (?) on it. I have been building it more as of late post healing rite buffs though! The healing boost combined with upgraded healing nova is absurdly strong.
Apologies for not clarifying! I was going a beam focused build featuring an escalating exposure rush (seriously this item is incredible with kelvin), rapid recharge, superior cooldown, surge of power (on the beam) superior duration, the tier 3 range spirit one, and then for green items I go spirit lifesteal, extra sprint speed tier 2, leech if I have money to spare, healbane if the enemy composition has lots of healing a la abrams and/or spirit/bullet armor also depending on enemy comp! Lmk if you want me to make a build guide regarding this stuff!
@@EndlessNamelessEN Alright I think I'll make a video akin to that today! I've got lots of requests for a build breakdown. Do you think it'd be better for me to do it over a game IE commentate on the build while I play a game or do it in the sandbox?
@@Salachomper fellow Kelvin enjoyer, nice channel! I think some of the best build guides have a sandbox voiceover with a public build to use, and then have some gameplay where they show the key parts of the build in action after the sandbox.

@@TheBobcheto yes my favorite one is when you play bebop against sapient hominids and they buy debuff remover and render your entire character useless

i opened hearthstone at the same time I started this video and I was mad confused cause I thought I had my music off

The amount of time you said bobby in the laning phase lmao

Missed hooks reminds me of League
Dont worry this bobby guy misses all of his hook in league too xddd
is it intentional for bepop ult being able to go through kelvin bubble?

how do you know what your MMR is in deadlock?

previously a tracking website, now you cant really but its unlikely you have dropped so much mmr that you arent in a similar level
You started struggling right after they got anti-heal, why not tier 2 healing boost to mitigate when it costs nadda lol

@@Salachomper nice breakdown, i would personally live a build/play breakdown on it! i’d look forward to any other heroes’ builds from you as well!

@@Salachompercould start with a sandbox vid and then drop a gameplay commentary after to show the ideas in real-time
