[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;39062863]Raelynn needs to piss off. She's overpowered as fuck right now with that spammable snipe, high HP (For her role.) and that fucking damaging wall bullshit.[/QUOTE] Ever faced one that focuses on protoblaster and timerift? By late game, if you manage to live 'dem blastershots, [I]then [/I]you get sniped. Fun times.

does the timerift damage droids?

[QUOTE=dill6869;39062981]does the timerift damage droids?[/QUOTE] Yes. It makes her a turtleing queen.

tried her out went a full game only using timerift went 7 and 5 pretty good considering that i suck [editline]2nd January 2013[/editline] 4 of those deaths were because an invisible Leon kept pressing the worm button while i was escorting or collecting things underneath the platform [editline]2nd January 2013[/editline] dick

That's bull shit, I could walk into a rift with full HP and end up with half or less before it ends. That's my major problem with her, and the fact that she gets the best health upgrade while nauts like Froggy and Gnaw get Lite Pills just pisses me off further. The final icing is that she's a stronger harasser then coco with that damned snipe of hers.

[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;39062863]Raelynn needs to piss off. She's overpowered as fuck right now with that spammable snipe, high HP (For her role.) and that fucking damaging wall bullshit.[/QUOTE] There's a glitch right now that if a Raelynn uses attack speed on her gun and hc bomb upgrade for her rift she can do a bunch of double damage shots. She's pretty good but really not op (as soon as that glitch gets fixed). Clunk, Froggy, and Leon are probably still the best characters.

And if they are, it's usually only Leon and they're usually terrible. Me, I main Skolldir with Vinnie and Gnaw on the side. I also like Voltar.

i extremely hate leon's cloak. i wish they added a time limit to the cloak because it seems that he can always camp and wait for you to be low at health and then tongue away from your allies.

When I do get the Leon's they are always crit + attck speed Leon's and that's literally the only thing in the game that gets me mad. I agree with what you are saying about the health thing though on Rae. Double health is mandatory on Froggy now and I don't feel safe playing Leon without double health either.

[QUOTE=gangstadiddle;39063670]i extremely hate leon's cloak. i wish they added a time limit to the cloak because it seems that he can always camp and wait for you to be low at health and then tongue away from your allies.[/QUOTE] This is what characters who have DoT's or large AoE damage are for. Cloak doesn't hide status effects, damage numbers or poison from Gnaw, so once you tag him with something you'll need to predict where he runs. I can't tell you how many cloaked Leons I've killed as Skolldir just by predicting their movement.

I literally just killed a cloaked Leon as Skolldir because I had the upgrades for basic attacking where his third attack stuns. If you stun someone who is cloaked, the effects are visible.

I also like dropping down on people as clunk and timing it so my explosion goes off right as I land.

[video=youtube;J2pTcD9DTE4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2pTcD9DTE4[/video] New champion showcase!

Seems fun. Can't wait to have a yuri, vinnie, and gengi team. Only thing I don't like is the voice. beta stream: [url]http://www.twitch.tv/samnauts[/url]

Genji is out and he is fantastic. He specializes in buffing teammates but an upgraded staff combined with cocoon with lifesteal has already gotten me quite a few kills. Actually had a few wins with a team of Skolldir, Genji, and Voltar. It's really interesting but Voltar and Genji actually can work on a team together.

[QUOTE=gnisasas;39644889][video=youtube;J2pTcD9DTE4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2pTcD9DTE4[/video] New champion showcase![/QUOTE] No. He's an Awesomenaut. Not a Champion. AWESOME. NAUT.

they buffed raelynn? why

I'm kind of surprised that TB did a lot better voice acting than Jessie Cox.

[QUOTE=dill6869;39755027]they buffed raelynn? why[/QUOTE] Because everyone complained she was underpowered. Just like how everyone complained Skolldir is, and they still ARE complaining that he is, overpowered and he got nerfed. Gnaw also had some changes, like the ability to have up to 6 weedlings on the field. Gnaw is one of my mains, and I've logged a lot of hours as him since he was released. I can't stand the removal of holding more weedlings AND a cap at one part per bite. It doesn't matter if you can have 100 weedlings on the field at once, almost every naut in the game can easily cut them down in seconds while you have to take the time to bite a ton of things just to build up one weedling.

There's an over powered tactic with Vinnie now where he buys Solar Krabs and the +2 solar per enemy in his cloud. 1 solar gives 5 health so if you have 5 things in the cloud you get 10 health per second. It's ridiculous. The Derpl buffs were nice but he still seems pretty weak in comparison to other 'nauts. Haven't tried the other 'nauts tonight since I've been having too much fun mucking about as Genji. Also cocoon is ridiculous.

Cocoon seems fine when you aren't abusing the yuri + derpl strategy.

[QUOTE=Mingebox;39755638]I'm kind of surprised that TB did a lot better voice acting than Jessie Cox.[/QUOTE] Both are pretty meh. Next time they want an "internet celebrity" to voice a character they should get someone who's voice acted before or who at least knows how to do it. I for one would love an Egoraptor 'naut :v:

I for one would love an Egoraptor 'naut :v:[/QUOTE] TB was loads better then Skolldir. Skolldir just sounds like one big Yogscast reference. He just sounded like he wasn't really trying. Totalbiscuit at least put in some effort, or maybe it's just because I love mobsters. I suggested an Egoraptor naut, maybe with Jontron with him like a Vinnie + Spike thing without the silent type. That was even before Vinnie was announced though, and people didn't really like the idea for whatever reason.

Anyone wanna start a premade? Add me or something. Okay yeah fuck this game. Froggy needs a nerf, Leon needs a nerf. Yuri needs a nerf, badly. Raelynn needs a nerf because she was buffed when she didn't need to be. Their matchmaking sucks, because I get paired with idiots half the time.

[img]http://puu.sh/2b9Il.jpg[/img] Little tip, if you have a Gnaw on the enemy team and he puts his weeds in the jungle to farm neutral creeps. Go up and smoke them for a shitton of solar, just remember to leave them alive so you can do it again when it's off cooldown.

And Jessie Cox seems like the sort of person who would good at voice acting.

One particular moment that sent me over the edge is in one game, the enemy team told someone they killed that they would have lived if there had been a worm in the jungle on sorona. I had one weedling in the enemy jungle, which they checked frequently, to deny them health and solar. There weren't any worms when I put the weedling in, and just after that Yuri + Derpl had killed my teammate who jumped into the jungle after them. I don't like jungle Gnaws, but I spit fire when people lump me in the same crowd as them just because I'm trying to deny the enemy.
