Update 5.7 — Voltage

Patch Notes
42

Bro, it’s just some advice, if they are considering it I was trying to be helpful, I just offered an idea that benefits pvp and extreme, that’s all mate,

Edit: no, I do not think about myself, I would be just fine not having her ever, I’m speaking for others who don’t have her and deal with her on a constant basis, I even had people msg me in game saying that I should keep up the good work for bringing this up, and you however, sometimes you don’t consider our views, I really wish you would see it the way we do, as I have multiple times from yours, I get it, you don’t want to lose hard work you put into her, that’s fine, I’m not saying she shouldn’t get to the point of uselessness, but at least beatable in more ways, people without her shouldn’t need specific teams just because of one hero,

People other than me have a hard time dealing with her in pvp, while kids with stygia turn on autoplay, add a magnus, hemilock, flatline, and fiber and just chill on the couch while their game runs, while people who have skill, don’t get the chance to use it, because they instantly stun any hero that is vital and leave them to die in the death zone, the way to beat people who use verril abusivly is high mech burst dmg, but stygia ain’t got nothing that can stop her, especially for lower level players, sometimes you just think of ruby levels, don’t forget there’s more players on the lower levels, they just don’t play as frequently and don’t post anything, and now, some are leaving bc they can’t win at all in pvp given the heros they have,

Just as a reminder, the devs read everything on the forums. Repeating the same things in different threads hoping for them to comment on it won’t make the odds of it happening increase. :man_shrugging:t2::+1:t2:

Yes I am aware, sick of having to talk about this at this point, but when they say I care about myself and am “embarrassing myself”, I ain’t just gonna let that happen, my points are valid, so are theirs, they just don’t listen and refer to insults sometimes, at least I listen to them when I can, I’m sick of this so much by now, can we all just enjoy the update?

Lastly: no I’m not going to complain about the new hero, she balanced on lower levels and counterable on the higher ones, only change I think she could use is a cap for her ruby at maybe 75 or 80 so fiber has a chance to hack the world first, and if both voltages do it, that standstill would be kinda cool, all in all this hero is pretty cool, and I heard adding kreiger makes her amamzing

Stygia is fine how she is. Just learn to counter her and ask players what hero’s work for them to counter her. It’s really not difficult

I can counter her and often do, however as it stands, she isn’t exactly the hero she should be, compare her splash effect to other like mavens, or the Molotov, or slurps, the dmg is wayyy higher and lasts for an absurd amount of time, on top of that, it also slows them and allows you to stack stuns on them, that’s cool right? But she also has a sheild with no cooldown in the millions, that another problem, we don’t need one hero that can “do it all”, that takes away from combining heros, rather than just using a bunch of healers and her,

she’s no perfect, as no one ever is, that’s life, it’s how it always was and always will be,

I don’t get why you’re constantly replying, even though you say you are tired of the topic. The point is you shared your opinion repeatedly and the devs are aware of your feedback, so it’s time to lay off.

48

Everyone’s repeating themselves in this topic lol devs already said they’re going to balance the game how they see fit and will listen to feedback. Pretty sure they got everyone’s two cents in this thread.

I got both sides of this and understand both viewpoints. The game masters themselves are aware of Stygia’s pros and cons. They are currently considering ways on how to take into account all opinions.

Thank you for considering both views, always great to know that you hear everyone!

52

Will be decided by the GMs. But if any changes do happen, I will make sure to inform you all.

53

Try not to change the animations or stuff, she’s still a pretty cool hero as is, thank you for listening, also, loving the update! Glad y’all working hard on the game! Just one more thing, next update do y’all plan to patch the matchmaking system in co-op, sometimes teams of gold are paired with enemies of maxed out rubies, kinda broken and makes it hard to make any progress in those events, especially annoying,

Looks like a good friend of Robert Pronk

Who do you mean by that?

56

‘Cool’ is an understatement to my opinion. She has reused animations. Bad voice lines, weird and non-compelling design and an even worse kit

57

To be honest at least she looks cool, and the whole android thing is a great concept, could go for a arm gun thing like obrez tho, like hand into gun thing would be cool, and her skins are cool too, but that fin on top of her head on the argon skin ain’t doing it for me, seems outta place,

Another great concept hero is hikari, and his sensai skin is dope,

Luiciana is another great addition, but her plat could use some tweaking bc it just about useless,

58

All those mentioned are reskins as well.

59

Luciana isn’t a reskin, everyone after her is. :+1:t2:
Also, you seemed to like Voltage’s overall kit in the hero spotlight post. :man_shrugging:t2:

60

Voltage is dope, only thing I don’t like is that they should either make the ruby cap at like 80% or it’s an instant win match, but other than that, that plus skin of hers ain’t doing it for me, she looks like a bug, instecty kind of, just ain’t my style,

61

We’re talking about Styg. Not Voltage. At least i was. But Luciana does have a skill from FF. Isabis’s bronze right? I know the silver is unique though
