      It wasn't worth making the game meta incredibly stale and one dimensional in pubs just to have PA in the international. It's a good thing she was nerfed. They did the same to bara, and guess what, we got a bara major. Very fun...

      ​​@@rinnepyBecause every single game from the deepest trenches to top 100 immortals was "you either manage to get her banned or she will be first picked and make the next 40-60 minutes for the enemy team a living hell. 25 if she's feeling generous and if you give her an early lead." This bitch was amost impossible to catch, could be running laps around you and shooting daggers WITHIN YOUR ATTACK RANGE and still be undetectable because fuck you. Also what a beautiful idea to give a hero who can 100-0 somebody in a second something that makes it impossible for the enemies to react to her engage for almost a second.
      Fuck pa pickers and everything they stand for. Go play a casino and lose all your life savings.

      ​@@rinnepy SB, CK, and BB were overpowered, yes, but they have interactions. PA (and Dark Willow and Muerta)'s entire gameplan was to be completely uninteractive. DW & Muerta's ability to be uninteractive paled in comparison to how PA was. When PA got off the ground, you simply couldn't click her. The fade delay meant she could straight kill someone before she unfaded, then fade again and repeat.

    • @shigerufan1
      @shigerufan1 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

      That's how the RNG works in the game for almost everything, the crit chance starts out well under the listed % until you get 3-4 hits, and with every miss it gets higher and higher until it finally triggers and resets.
      It's mainly to prevent people from getting lucky from back-to-back crits as often, but it can be cheesed in its own right by stacking non-triggers on creeps like you said.

  • @MentalVideographer
    @MentalVideographer 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

    I feel like the nature of PA is that she was powerful around people who are bad at the game; evasion is deadly if you don't build MKB, her blink was a perfect gap closer if you didn't build BKB (which isn't gonna be so common at lower levels) and if you don't know how to manage her, the crits will absolutely body you.
    I remember starting the game, and PA being an unholy terror.
    Thus, buffs and nerfs are in an awkward position. How do you make her viable at high tier play, without making her oppressive at low tier play?

    • @xMoomin

  • @samuelmontenegroserniotti7146
    @samuelmontenegroserniotti7146 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +16

    I think her ultimate should be reworked into something more niche.
    For example make her crits ignore armor
    Or make her crits more probable when the target is low hp.
    Or instead of being a crit it could become a massive bleed
    Or give her Q a longer cooldown on heroes that leaves a mark that garantees a crit on that one target.
    Its just the pure simplicity of her ultimate what keeps her down.

    • @BruhMeme85
      @BruhMeme85 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not even bro
      PAs kit itself is the problem
      Not unless they make her intentionally broke she will remain bad (at least for TI level play)
      The only reason PA became strong recently is because people realized how strong PA aghs was
      For a long time I have bought that item as a second item or 3rd and people would always be mad at me for buying aghs on PA
      But as soon as pros noticed how good the aghs was it became Meta
      It was a dispel in a low cool down
      But most importantly is it gave you a 3 second window where you can attack someone without getting seen even with detection
      What you would do is that you blur then wait for the cool down
      The you jump at a support then as soon as the blur fades you blur again since aghs removed blur cast point making it so you essentially double the fade time of blur
      That small window of time is usually enough to kill of one support in the enemy team
      Then after you kill the support you can use blur again as a defensive tool since supports are usually far back
      The distance supports has from their carries are usually just enough for the radius of blur to not fade making it so that PA was basically just an enigma and your supports couldn't even have done anything meaning you didn't need to use your BKB to pick off supports
      And the carries couldn't punish PA for it

    Imho chance based skills should have some baseline consistency, especially if it’s an ultimate. Maybe they could’ve nerfed the numbers and instead provide a bonus true damage in case of a missed crit, or they could have two crits - one big with low chance and one smaller with bigger chance - and in case they both triggered, the hit will only perform the big crit

    The reason pa was popular in 7.³³ and onward was mostly a case that the map was new gold farming to scale was not perfected or even close so going zug zug riki pa alarm and murdering people on the map worked better than farming.
    Part of it was riki pa having been buffed and feeling strong but before people figured how greedy they could get away and what item timings to hit while farming and how to farm rushing with kill heroes was the meta, and the rest was trying to survive them, i.e. dawn breaker meta with a global save.

      quite frankly she'd probably be a helluva lot better if she _was_ like a league champ, because then she'd drop the passive evasion in return for a reliable burst combo, or swap it for an active 100% evasion buff that _doesn't_ get turned off by a single item + likely just have far better baseline tankiness in general
      also an actual ult. coup would not survive five seconds on a league champ's kit, not beyond being a passive component of another ability that just gave bonus crit damage for free. possibly as an innate ability that's automatically skilled at level 1 and scales automatically with levels. even if she remained a melee rightclicker, the sorta shit league gives its melee rightclickers is stuff like yi's _massive_ attack and move speed boost + slow immunity that can last as long as he keeps getting kills, tryndamere's troll ult that can be cast through _any_ cc, olaf just becoming fully immune to any and all cc as long as he keeps hitting things _on top of_ getting a significant amount of attack damage, fiora obliterating a single enemy champ by playing ring-around-the-rosie, warwick flinging himself across the entire screen to dismember whoever he lands on, and yone just outright having a teamfight initiation ult on the level of ghost ship that also blinks him directly on top of the backline
      i have no idea what kinda ult you could give pa to make her work in league and still have it fit her, but i have full confidence that you could then port this theoretical league pa back into dota and she'd be _significantly_ better for it

    I'm pretty sure one of the reasons DotA 1 got decontinued and Stiffing Dager turned into an attack around the same era was due to Warcraft not having support for instant attacks, wich later became a huge part of Dota 2 and a lot of heroes like Monkey King, Pangolier andHoodwink

    Its weird that with her kit being full of incredible single target damage, she should be a mid game terror, killing heroes all over the map and using that momentum to carry through the late game. Instead it seems like dagger and blur are used as mediocre farming tools to turn her into an unreliable late game carry where her crits either instantly win the fight or lose it.
    Instead of this uninteractable playstyle I'd say they they should revert her blur and ulti, and give her something to push her early/mid ganking power. Maybe if blur gave some good movespeed while she's off the minimap for faster roaming and she got a reward for chasing kills such as a permanent attack speed buff which if she got into late game, would mean she attacks fast enough that the likelihood of her critting before dying is higher. Would really encourage that unique and fun style that Phoenix had, and instead off thinking "oh PA is off the map, she must be farming" you're thinking "oh god PA is off the map, is she about to jump me?"
    Another idea that could giving the ult an active ability that lets her guarantee one crit on a 30-40s cool down so she can contribute at least one kill on a valuable target, but can't just hide and wait for the buff before jumping in for the entire fight.

    • @Lordofrye

      Until the latest TI, we've had around 160 games per tournament. However, due to the structure of the tournament, it's not as relevant - you have a marathon round robin group stage whose meta is often distinct from the main stage double elimination bracket. Most meta heroes will hover around the same contest rate - somewhere around 70%. Most off meta heroes will have wild variation in their pick rates depending on how much they were picked by a successful team - MVP Phoenix's TI6 run shows this. Since the meta almost never solidifies as much as it does in League, where optimization excludes far more heroes from viability, the differences in pick/ban rates are less useful as a statistic.
      In short, Dota is too chaotic to gather much info from overall statistics.

      Because we live in a world of instant gratification. LoL matches are short-term and attainable satisfaction because of simplified mechanics, whereas DotA brings out substantial satisfaction the longer you play and learn. Of course, new players would rather pick the easier and simple MOBA game and that is LoL. PLUS. It is way more popular and has better marketing than the piece of sh*t company Valve. Valve makes great games (CSGO, TF2, DotA), but they seriously need to step up their marketing and putting their game out there.
