Literally just got out of this tier 6 ranked match. 2 deaths in a 23 minute game, half that of the person with the second least, and not even sporting a defense item. If only I could find some people to group with DX But the build is legit, I don't care what anyone says. I've heard plenty of get pierce first, or eve of harvest isn't good, or why don't I get shatter glass. Please be aware, I bought plenty of health potions and a number of scout traps throughout the match that are not on...

Lol @ anyone saying there is no counter to taka. Celeste's auto attack free flare? Contraption? A glaive with brains? The only thing that seems OP about taka to me is how is evades all Dmg and effects when he is in the air, which is like 40% of the time he's out. It's like he starts with a couple reflex blocks already equipped, and then can actually get a reflex block on top of it, AND he gets a vanish lol, just seems like a skooch too much. But as far as there being no counter?...

If I'm running support glaive, I start with warhorn and then clockwork. Your afterburn ability is still kinda long cool down early and the health is needed to tank so I snag the warhorn first. Then it depends on how my team is doing. If we need Dmg I'll go serpents mask and bonesaw/tornado trigger or if we need some more defense I might snag fountain. Once afterburn is overdriven and you have clockwork it really opens up your options. Sometimes when my teams really bad I end up doing the...

Boots, aftershock, eve of harvest, alternating current (buy the blazing salvo early though), defense item is opponent dependent. Be nice and help place a few scout traps through the match, and don't be afraid to use some health potions.

On Celeste I gun straight for eve of harvest, and aftershock is usually my second item build. Good to work that stun and ultimate cooldown lower, and spamming heliogenisis gets aftershock to proc like a motha. I like it anyway, your mileage may vary.

Contraption

I tend to find koshka is actually better late game because she's so squishy and gear dependent. It may not be perfect but I normally demolish with koshka using a build like: Crystal bit Boots Swift shooter Chrono Blazing salvo First battery Then finish after shock, you'll look like: Aftershock Boots Blazing salvo Crappy battery Snag another crystal bit and work to eve of harvest. While building eve or after is when you level boots up and possibly start a defense item,...

How do you even know the rank of the people you play with/against without adding them to your friends list?

Afk's are one thing but all the dang trolls are what really gets to me. When they aren't afk but just dance around as you die and spam emotes. I also hate when you're down to the last one or two turrets and your opponents first turret Is still at full up and you get aced and they're about to get kracken, a completely inevitable loss and people won't accept a surrender but don't try to take objectives or win either. So frustrating! I'm in North America server, bounce between rank 5 and 6...
