I mean yea it doesn't help that Blizzard's balance team is kinda dumb and keep nerfing characters that didn't need to be nerfed and overbuffing characters.

Funny you say that when Hi-rez just nerfed a character that didn't need to be nerfed (Grover) and are considered buffing characters that don't need to buffed (Cassie and Androxus)

I haven't really involved myself into Paladins' meta enough to really know where the balance lies, so that's interesting to know.

Grover receiving a nerf is probably related to low play (where people choose aggression as the "best" red card). Cauterize is basically the direct counter to grover, and how well he does can be seen as loosely related to how many people have it. Level 3 caut can basically shut down his ultimate. Similarly, cassie and androxous have a higher skill floor, and suffer in lower skill level games.
I suspect if Hi-Rez shifts focus to higher skill level for balancing we'll see the changes reversed.

Cauterize also really needs a nerf.

There was an interesting post by PonPon on the Smite reddit about god balance:
[url]https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/5b391s/god_balance_is_all_about_favouritism/d9lj1rp/[/url]
Whether or not Paladins has a similar method to balance is beyond me though.
But yeah, nerf Cauterize please.

Oh wow actually got an emote,
too bad its insult for grohk since I don't play him that much
Update 0.38 went live not long ago, here's the changelog: [url]https://paladins.gamepedia.com/Paladins_Beta_Version_0.38.1420[/url]
The new legendary set for Ruckus is 800 crystals total.
I just managed to ult twice in a row with androxus, I have no idea how it happened.
I ulted, got two kills, jumped onto point. Suddenly I hear the "ult fully charged" sound effect, and I just ult again, killing off the last guy on the point.

Sadly I don't have any means to have recorded it

I've actually seen that bug happen in other games. Stuff like Makoa and Cassie ulting again after they die.
No idea what causes it though.
I took a few screenshots of the event, haven't had the time to recreate it yet (since andro gets insta picked)

hackers (or is it scripters?) are completely ruining paladins for me. turns out i'm not half-bad at this game, but there's no incentive when competitive gets me nowhere and feels like a dice roll
Here's the changelog for 0.39 (xmas cosmetics, rebalances and ice mines visual update): [url]https://paladins.gamepedia.com/Paladins_Beta_Version_0.39.1450.2[/url]

Drogoz
“Through card combinations and precise timing Drogoz players were able to exceed booster’s maximum speed for long durations of time allowing for an unintended amount of mobility. With the new booster behaviour he can still momentarily hit high speeds but will not be able to maintain them.”
Booster
Implemented a gradual speed reduction to booster when surpassing the maximum intended speed.
Booster is now disabled for 1 second after being knocked back

Just when I learned how to fly that fast, it gets nerfed.

Because we definitely need more of those.

Instead of making a long beta stats image like they did for smite, they made a video for it:

So the new champion is the first character without some kind of mobility.
Pretty interesting actually. :v:

I just played again yesterday and the new archer dude is horrible.
I still did pretty well with him but in comparison to how fast paced the game is, his bow is too slow to compete, not to mention you can't snipe as well with it.
They released some images of an upcoming map, Stone Keep, the other day. The map is looking pretty good:

Looking forward to Torvald in OB42 and the Viktor skin. Stone keep looks like a nice edition where's there's enough open spaces and closed spaces to fit all champions alike.
