This is a fantastic format, and a huge upgrade on the normal "guide" type videos. The fact that you have one high skill player teaching another about a hero allows for very thoughtful questions to be asked and answered. I think this is one of the best guide videos I've seen ever, and I have watched 1000 for all kinds of games. Well done!
Interview MikaelS for Paradox!! I feel like he’d be down for an interview. Would love to see an interview of him on Paradox thoughts. Esp Paradox itemization since theres a lot of debate around how exactly build her mid and late game 3 & 1+2+4 combo
Great guide. I've been moaning ivy since I got in and always been following catgirls stuff but I've never tried to do the sliding properly. I'll try harder to work it in!!
Good video, I've used her builds (with slight modifications sometimes) a bunch and they're good and it was nice having her explain her logic. The only problem with her support build is that if you're solo queuing, being support ivy is pain because people just run away when you try and tether and heal etc. Very frustrating. I'd stick with DPS unless you got a chatty team or are grouped up with 2+ people
Great video. I've been doing very well with Catgirl's build. You're quick enough to be able to pick your fights, and such a big threat that they don't know what to do in the end game.
This is really good insight! Thx for the interview! I'm that one guy in a group that mostly looking for the pick that can fill in empty slot since I love flexible/versatile character and supportive role. Gotta try hard with her somedays.
I loved this style of video! Was really informational and a good idea to use knowledge from people that main the respective character. I'd love a video like this on Vindicta or Haze! Keep up the good work!
Ivy can pull off insane combos with AOE ults like haze, infernus, seven and dynamo. Fly around and they can initiate the ult whenever is best then you can drag them around air-borne chasing the opponents as they hide for cover.
I wonder if devs thought that the tank support gargoyle that they created will be running around sliding everywhere killing everyone like in warframe or devil may cry
the passive fleetfoot and sliding tip is so insane edit: I've been messing around in the practice tool and find it kinda difficult to use do you have any VODs of this trick in action? cus the giga movespeed and constant sliding makes it super hard to track a target you're aiming at and you can't change direction otherwise you lose momentum and won't be able to re-enter a slide
I cant seem to replicate the infinite sliding trick, sprint speed kept decreasing below sprint threshold when I'm ONLY shooting any enemy. Stacking a full sprint speed increasing item still reduce my sprint speed and the only way I could ever get it working is if I have Tether up (which worked for some reason even tho it only gives 2 m/s speed) or when I'm using Heroic Aura active skill
@@trisfaleel it's only 18% bullet dmg nerf. The core of the item wasn't changed at all and is still extremely strong. Especially on ivy whose base bullet dmg is extremely low, 18% isn't much
@@mas0ny149 They also removed 1 move speed from her. Before with enduring speed+tether she could slide. Now she needs +1m/s So to make up for the 1m/s you need to invest 3k into something. I would rather get a different item than have a 16-17 minute siphon. Especially when intensifying does more damage anyways.
I don't know why but my accuracy on Ivy is like 10%. And she must deal damage to win so I lose more often than not. Any tips? I am not a shooter player
you know when you use her 2 she has a vine that tethers to a nearby team mate or creep? it increases to 2 vines so she can tether or 'connect' to 2 team mates now
@@Daniel-tj2yq I said that without checking myself, I dont see it readily available anywhere, BUT I do think most heroes have some passive. Its just not readily available, I have heard other passive abilities for other characters so Im sure somewhere that will be stated in the future or people will figure out what other heroes also have
@@oliver1820 yeah ran into the same thing where it wasn't readily apparent Would be cool to add and show what heroes start with, could be another lever they balance stuff around or change up the game
This video's flow and interview were PERFECT. Seriously, great job. Really looking forward to more of these in the future!

Moaning?
you''ve been what?
@@juanluisdecamino963i mean, don't we all?
What exactly are you moaning and sliding properly for? 🤨
I don't even play the game and found this interview fascinating. I'd love to watch matches of Catgirl playing support Ivy with comms.
ok so the flowchart for Ivy gameplay is: slide -> slide -> slide -> slide -> slide
pretty much!
Banger, enjoyed it immensely and learned a lot. Great insights from CatGirl and you kept a great flow/pace to the convo.
In my first game, when I tried slide more, I got insulted by 3 teammates. Thanks for guide guys!
you're welcome! eventually, you'll get insulted for NOT sliding, so you really can't win either way
Thank you for doing this interview! it brings so much insight to Ivy! Good stuff

this is the best way to do this!!! love the insight from a top tier ivy
so much information here and with a great supplemental showcase in sandbox. thanks for the vid!

Awesome, now I need an interview for Vindicta and can actually start playing the game.
This is excellent content. Thank you so much for this exclusive.
awesome vid. great to hear the voice behind the build and explain it in depth.

700 games already is insane.
Pretty easy if you don't have a job or life and just sit at home playing video games every single day
@@tylersmith9868 mad?
@@MizawOwOwhy do u assume he’s mad?
Awsome,was just trying to learn İvy.
Really great collab video. :)
This is great, thank you!
I think a guide or tier list for active items would be a really helpful video
Active items are so situational though. They're mainly used as counters or solutions to problems you might be having that game.
Nice vid, should have put some catgirl gameplay in the background tho
I like the part where sliding is emphasized and well explained.
Great content! AverageJonas Deathy bebop guide incoming I’m guessing :)
great guide format.
been playing a lot of ivy with catgirls build, its so good once u get heroic aura, instant transform into machine gun rodent
I don't know who the best Kelvin player is, but would love to see an interview with them! Then the best pocket
hope u can make more guide like this
Eskay Vindicta guide would be sick
would love to see a paradox guide
Yamato would be great, never really see her popping off… Feels like there’s just other heroes that do the same thing better. Curious your opinion
Yeah Yamato is not that good right now, I'll get around to her eventually for sure though, I enjoy her
I play 3 heroes. Lady Geist, Pocket and Yamato. Yamato is clearly harder to get ahead with.
this was epic, any viscous guides on the horizon?
I'd like to see you get poshypop's commentary on Ivy too.
"Meow" - CATGIRL
man i love dropping my friends on enemy walkers right when they're about to do their stomp lmao
I think Strxx is the best Bebop? If you could interview them, that would be sick!
we are in desperate need of a pocket guide!
shocked that catgirl's build doesn't have bullet lifesteal
I don't think she needs it tbh. She already has lifesteal on her kit and she's incredibly survivable already.
I wonder if devs thought that the tank support gargoyle that they created will be running around sliding everywhere killing everyone like in warframe or devil may cry
I would love to see a taimou interview for wraith. He just changed his build to a card build and it’s disgusting
the passive fleetfoot and sliding tip is so insane
edit: I've been messing around in the practice tool and find it kinda difficult to use
do you have any VODs of this trick in action?
cus the giga movespeed and constant sliding makes it super hard to track a target you're aiming at and you can't change direction otherwise you lose momentum and won't be able to re-enter a slide
It's definitely hard to use, I don't have any vods at the moment. I'll ask catgirl if she has any clips!
I cant seem to replicate the infinite sliding trick, sprint speed kept decreasing below sprint threshold when I'm ONLY shooting any enemy. Stacking a full sprint speed increasing item still reduce my sprint speed and the only way I could ever get it working is if I have Tether up (which worked for some reason even tho it only gives 2 m/s speed) or when I'm using Heroic Aura active skill
Sprint speed is different than move speed. Sprint speed is only active out of combat. Move speed is what you need for the sliding.
I really wanna see a Viscous guide. I find itemizing on him to be pretty odd. thanks!
Will look into it!
Any chance of a full pocket guide coming? :)
Yeah it's in the works, very soonTM
Would love a viscous guide!
Second this. Seems like a ton of build options for that character, especially with the changes to their gun.
I don’t see “ivy’s bodega” in the Discord. Where do I find it? Also, does CATGIRL stream anywhere?
It's in the guides tab. Just search for bodega and you'll find it
Hey David - Catgirl does not stream. As far as Ivy's Bodega, it's in the guide section of the official Deadlock discord. Hope this helps!
Is cat girl transgender or a cisgender woman
any reason why she doesnt go siphon bullets? or did she used to go it before the nerfs and now she doesnt
It got nerfed pretty bad so it’s not as good to rush for her as before
@@trisfaleel it's only 18% bullet dmg nerf. The core of the item wasn't changed at all and is still extremely strong. Especially on ivy whose base bullet dmg is extremely low, 18% isn't much
@@mas0ny149 well yeah u just don't rush it as much as u did before it's better to get like tesla bullets first, it's still a very good endgame buy

She went before the nerfs but now doesn't
Can we do a bebop or dynamo colab next?
I don't know why but my accuracy on Ivy is like 10%. And she must deal damage to win so I lose more often than not. Any tips? I am not a shooter player
Anyone have a link to the discord Catgirl is talking about? I'm not seeing it anywhere.
"+1 tether count" what does that mean??? i dont find ANY info about that, anywhere
its just u heal one more person?
you know when you use her 2 she has a vine that tethers to a nearby team mate or creep? it increases to 2 vines so she can tether or 'connect' to 2 team mates now
@@spacecatmeows alright ye i assumed that already, thanks for the answer tho!
vindicta next?
You should add your twitch to your about me section on youtube
has anyone found a better hotkey for their crouch? my brain is used to ctrl, BUT my pinky finger hates me for it (old gamer)
Mouse button?
piggy > catgirl for you folks watching more recently
Catgirl is really a girl! No way bro 😭
skeptical
The discord link is busted my amigo
Nice
Didnt even know she had fleetfoot
Why does she have fleetfloot??
Who knows?! Cause she's a gremlin?
Most characters I think have one of the store items like built into their kit! I think… u should look into ur characters default passives!
@@oliver1820 interesting, thanks
I had no idea

great to hear from a "girl"
something tells me catfish is not biologically female
lmao. i hear the adam’s apple already
