Lance is a very good choice. Wp support lance, or pure defense support lance, are both super good & can cause mayhem amongst the enemy team. Alpha is pretty complicated; wouldn't recommend her till you have more experience. Ringo is a great choice- he's an easy to use, classic laner, imo one of the best in the game. Glaive is pretty powerful & easy to use. krul & taka are both very fun heroes who do well at the lower tiers (where I'm guessing you are, being new & all). I'd...

On a side note, being level 30 has nothing to do with who you match with. I'm level 25 & I haven't seen a guest player in months, if not a full year. You should probably figure out how the system works... Lol

Is this a rant towards the matchmaker system, or towards toxic players? Toxic players have been addressed in the new ban system, & the matchmaker system is pretty good (usually). If you're being paired with guests, you probably have a very low matchmaker. You could try winning a few games to bring your rank & matchmaker up. Wow, what a crazy idea...

... Is anybody else wondering why somebody revived a thread from nearly 2 years ago or is that just me lol

I do find her a little OP- pro Skye players are often the hardest to shut down, & she can, if played right, do some serious harassment in the jungle or lane. Probably one of the strongest characters in the game imo. As said above though, players like koshka & also vox make for really strong counters; I don't recommend taka since he's so easy to take out after his initial hits. Not sure how you'd nerf her without making her underpowered- I do like how she creates a different side of...

Nothing worse than playing a match with an awful player, starting a new one, then seeing you're with that player again. Quite a hassle to me & those not involved bc I then have to take a penalty for dipping on the match, & I make everybody else wait. Would like to see better mixing when it comes to matches. I suppose I could wait a couple minutes after the match is over, but that's usually not on my mind after a loss

Sorry, just now got to this... The website kept bugging out on me for some time. @MaximusP- really powerful? I mean, maybe base damage wise, but it's so easy to shut both down with a good team; one is immobile & the other is too squishy. You're def right on the contraption & burst/stun though @Halcius- I mean, it kind of is a tactic, isn't it? Some teams are extremely burst heavy, others stun heavy, others neither. I wouldn't say it works on every hero- I've seen a number of...

Yeah, you can. You'd have to lose a decent number of games, but dropping skill tiers happens, especially when you reach one too high for your skill level (happened to me several times)

Maybe it's just me, but they're always the worst. Falling off endgame, thinking they can 1v3 an entire team, being the most common instalockers, etc. I've noticed an increase in people picking saw & taka lately too... Not sure why that is. Every now & then one snowballs due to heavy farming & gets a couple levels above everybody else to help secure an early game win, but that's not as much of a strategy as it is sheer luck. I'm getting to the point where I won't even play with a...

Throw up a flare. That's literally all you have to do lol. Taka is only as good as you allow him to be... If you let him run all over, doing hit & runs & harassing your laner, yes, he'll be "unfair." If your team protects your laner, throws up a flare, & hits taka heavy towards the beginning of the fight, he won't last. So overall, no, he's not unfair. He's really squishy, falls off late game, has to be in the middle of the fight to do decent damage, and isn't always...
