honestly im glad he swapped games he seems a lot happier playing deadlock now
I love Deadlock :D
@@MetroDeadlock I have not tried it yet I basically just quit overwatch so I need a replacement game. I used to play lots of tf2 by valve and deadlock is made by valve so hopefully I like it
Great info. Definitely helping me understand the game better even though I don't play Wraith.
great video gamer
I've been a Wraith main since release and I've seen no one else rocking the Hybrid build for so long. Im glad you're respecting the Hybrid build it has been free wins for me for so long and even now. Glad to see my custom made build is almost exactly the same as yours seeing as you are better than me. Good looks on the content keep it up buddy.
I think in the long run it will always be better to adapt and just counter what the enemy is building against, cards if everyone is running return fire or metal skin etc and vice versa. Thanks for the kind words! :)
I think my enjoyment of card wraith comes from my general playstyle. I have most matches on Pocket, Lash, Yamato and Paradox before picking up Wraith recently. Card wraith with shadowweave has clicked as its less of a hard carry and more like my other heroes which are about getting picks early on in a teamfight on a high prio target then getting out while the team cleans up.
basically irrelevant after just half a day. Card Wraith just got nerfed and pretty much sucks now ngl.
Card wraith is still very good, everything mentioned in this video still applies. She is weaker overall but I would expect gun buffs and spirit nerfs on Thursday tipping the balance further into guns favor!
On gun wraith, is it worth interupting your shooting briefly by throwing cards during a lift? Or should you just strictly be shooting during the lift?
Yes, you always wanna throw out cards when u have them they take up almost no time, just hold down your mouse 1 and spam cards.
this might work cuz im playing in a lower level lobby but split push gun wraith is probably the most unfun gameplay the enemy can experience because u can take down the shrine and the patron insanely fast and during the time the patron is transforming the enemy tries to regroup at which point u can just ult and finish it off while the enemy barely gets any shots
Wraith is probably one of the best split pushers in the game and it's 100% viable to go for objectives while ur team is fighting!
thoughts on shadow weave with gun wraith? seems needed for the stats/rof, apologies if this was missed in the vid
I don't like shadow weave as much on gun since it gives you the same fire rate increase of vampiric without the insane lifesteal, still great if you are the one initiating the fight. Otherwise, I'd recommend vampiric over it in most cases for gun!
cant you just go spirit build for mid game and then start building gun. I feel like no matter what wraith is gonna be hybrid. once you get a couple gun items your gonna start building spirit or the other way around
It's best to go gun build in early game by going something like extra charge, mystic burst, (lane bully) basic mag, monster rounds, Tesla, intensifying Mag, quicksilver.(Lane push/creep farming) The reason why you do this first is because it allows you to farm a lot faster on any creep wave and camp. It also provides a bunch of gun damage to reload your cards as fast as possible. So that way you can earn and farm fast for your other items.
Gun early (after laning) helps you farm and push way faster, always go basic spirit items in lane either way, they are too good early.
Would slowing bullets be useful for Wraith in the early phase?
A lot of wraith players like running it, I don't think it's as viable in most situations compared to what I'm running but its def a great item for Wraith in general!
Yeah the card build is easily counterable. Reactive armor or spirit resist will easily counter it. Also just mvt speed and mobility items will make you waste half of ur ults. And if you decide to gank/assasinate a target and he gets help or they just decide to not show up solo in lanes your wasting time. Other heroes who have escape item can probably turn the fight around easily. Also, in laning phase you need to hit cards to gain some gorm of lead which is not easy because your gun is weak and lane is constantly shoved. It has many weaknesses. The gun build is also very weak. Because there are builds that can easily reach 69% bullet resist. So hyrbid make sense, hybrid mixed woth utility items and a lot of mobility is the way to go.
Yea, any build in the game can be countered, it's all about you buying whats best for the current situation!
I love gun Wraith but I feel it takes too long to get online. If I do lose some fights I am always behind and can never quite catch up. After the recent patch I've had a lot more success on card Wraith in comparison which is sad because I love destroying enemy objectives in seconds with gun Wraith
which build are you using? i find the linepro gun wraith is online very quick, around the 10 min mark with an average lane phase
As I mentioned in the video, cards are probably stronger because the overall meta rewards spirit damage but gun has a lot of comeback mechanics with farming spered aswell!
tbh the card build ur showing is kinda shit, overflow gives lifesteal and firerate, infuser also gives lifesteal, healbane is pretty good since ur lifepool isnt that big anyway.
