This is just a little tip I've noticed while playing as her that didn't occur to me at first. If a Jenos is on the enemy team, watch to see what talent they pick. If they pick The Power Cosmeum then you won't be able to pounce out of his Void Grip. Just a good thing to keep note of during a match
If you're playing any flank champion this is a thing you have to look out for anyway, as a squishy flank alone in the enemy backline getting lifted by jenos cripple means death if you don't have at least resilience 2.
9 months of training and watching this guide have gotten me to where I am now. 4 different times I thought I should quit Maeve. I am 38 levels in with her and still holding strong now being able to do so damn well now. I am going to keep watching this guide and learn all I can from it. Weather I win or lose isn't up to me I'm here just to have fun now.
as a maeve main, watching people get upset about her street justice talent makes me laugh LOL. she is not hard to kill if you understand her movement abilities, and in my experience, playing her has helped me understand how to better counter her. obviously a good maeve is going to be difficult to kill, but that kind of goes for anyone who is good at the character they're playing
i found that maeve mains can be very easy to counter if you can slow her down or get her on the ground making grover and genos or even octavia seemingly a decent counter this season cause maeve got shadow buffed and is now faster than before lul
yes when i play flank i dont have problems engaging with a maeve my problem is that when im low and retreating i just found her and she street justice me out of existance and its just annoying (like 33% of those unlucky pounces are bc of my bad positioning tho)
Maeve main here, bought 5 levels in total, my now level 109. I've only played Maeve mainly during my whole paladins life. What I noticed: Some champions really does her bad. Androxus: If this androxus is very good it won't matter if you try to flee. He'll make quick shots while you are in mid air. Evie: Wormhole evie can be very confusing and give them the upper hand. Jenos: His grab ability, you can't flee his grasp once you're in it. Makoa: Keep your distance or he will grab you and one-punch you.
The most painful encounter I had as a Maeve was an Inara with a Treacherous Guard Talent. She'd hunt me down whenever I wandered near, place Warden Field, and I knew as soon as I got caught I was dead lol. It was so frustrating seeing that "crippled" in my screen. Learnt quick to MOVE away as soon as I saw her and fall back. She still surprised me every now and then 😬, totally lost that match though haha
I think having Walk it off at least on lvl 2 would be greatly beneficial. I've never experienced major benefit from DR with Maeve, especially against snipers.
A really solid guide though one thing to add about street justice. The old meta played in the PPL when street justice was the meta would always go for six sense(DR) and HP cards. Getting quicker resets on your pounce for more executes sounds like it makes a lot of sense but a huge part of that playstyle was being survivable too. Also a good call on kill to heal but one neat tip is that anyone who dies while her ult is active will heal maeve because it counts as an assist.
A really nice and helpful guide!! I just wanted to add on that if I recall from my long forgotten Paladins Beta days of maining Maeve, using her ultimate actually makes enemies not be able to hear your prowl sounds so long as you're outside of their vision circle thingy! So that's pretty cool heh, anyhow thank you for yet again an awesome video!
I used to main Maeve, she's my favourite character and I got good at her but then I quit the game for 2 years. Now I want to play Paladins again but honestly, I kinda nervous of about playing Maeve again.
Kinessa and Bomb King both have two talents that augment their weapons, Corvus has two talents that augment his mark, Dredge has two talents that augment his harpoon, Furia has two talents that augment her beam, Seris has two talents that augment Rend Soul (sort of), Sha Lin has two talents that augment crippling arrow, and Torvald has two talents for his protection.
about the map thing im a maeve one trick to me every other champion feels dull and boring so i just learned to play around the maps that arent good and the ones that are
Am I the only one struggling to see how you can two shot with Cat Burglar? You need 800+240+800 which is 1840 damage. Only champion who has less than 1900 basehealth is Evie. That means you do still need Pounce, or another set of daggers, or reset prowl. The thing is if you are hitting 3 daggers, or 2 daggers and pounce. You will still need 3 instances of damage regardless.
@@AndrewChicken But the description says "Increase the damage of each of your daggers from your first dagger sets within 5s of Prowl ending by 30%." If your first dagger set does 400 +400. Each dagger does 520 damage. That's 520+520. I understand a dagger set to be the two daggers that are thrown together from one auto attack. Not two sets of daggers (consisting of 4 daggers together). Plus all damage champs have atleast 2000 health .
@@tradtrad1000 Yes, that's just Paladins being bad at descriptions. If you've seen any Maeve Cat Burglar gameplay or played with it yourself, you can observe that this bonus applies to the first two dagger sets after your prowl ends (hence the plural "sets" in the description of the talent). This means that your first set does 520 per dagger, or 1040 total, and then your second set also does the same damage. Both sets combined yields 2080 damage, which is enough to two-shot damage champions with 2000 health like Sha Lin or Lian. Just look at the gameplay at 2:08 and you can see that the first two sets have that orange bonus damage indicator, not just the first set. Replace that Androxus with a full-health Zhin, and he would still die, because Zhin only has 2000 health.
As an ok lex player, Its not maeves exacution I despise. Its how the gane revelas those who are low enough to be executed, her pounce goes through shields. WhileI have to judge where the execution happens and cant go through shields with my ULT
unpopular opinion but ı think street justise is very op bc its very begginer friendly and very annoying for the enemy team. also people can use cards or buy items to get their hp more but that doesnt nerf the talent. street justise also ignores the shields of tanks whic is very helpfull in ranked. no matter how much shield torvald has, as long as his hp is low enough he would die easily. ı think pounce doesnt have enough damage so ıd prefer street justise to rouge's gambit
Used to be possible to buy deft hands on her when she was released Also 35% execute is just braindead i don't see y wouldn't I abuse it as maeve one trick
Im playing maeve as a main champ but she is really broken against low level player or low expierenced players. You can easily make 30 kilms in a single siege game
I honestly feel like she's sobasic that, if you're not a pro player is not worth picking. And that's because there are other options that i feel stronger... She's not enough "unique"
And people still claim that she's not stupid OP like geez, small af hitbox and hipermobility is enough to be broken and overshadow and outclass any other dmg negation/absorbsion and temporal invicibility skills and dodge counters like a crutch despite her nerfs, basically the brigitte of this game that only dia+ players can deal with

Hey could you do a mal damba guide next hes a difficult characters and it could help alot of people Also keep up the good work
I'm unsubbing
@Kairo Campbell It was a joke my dude 😂
Yoo the tip at the very end, buying depth hands, i never thought abt it man it helped me so much!
That deft hands joke might confuse some people, just saying
I was thinking that too
Its not a joke
It doesn't even allow you to buy deft hands in game
Yes it does
That's the point
This is just a little tip I've noticed while playing as her that didn't occur to me at first. If a Jenos is on the enemy team, watch to see what talent they pick. If they pick The Power Cosmeum then you won't be able to pounce out of his Void Grip. Just a good thing to keep note of during a match

Learned that the hard way
Does resil help it?
@@shadtowa8986Yes
Here's how I play Maeve: fly through the air at mach 12 with cooldown resets and still die to their level 251 god kinnesa
same
I was going to main Maeve and needed a Maeve guide , then AndrewChicken uploaded this . What a time to be alive .
Nooo don't do that main meave are cringe
@@curcip ikr i used to main her until i realised how cringenit was
Bruh
Then u realise its Vyktoryah 🙄
Y can u not main maeve?
Deft hands is a must buy at the start of the match. Its good against every charecter AND allows you to one shot anyone
uh but maeve doesnt reload though
maeve doesnt have deft hands though??
Y'all got baited, I did too

I already play Maeve a lot, but this video inspired me to rework my decks which was absolutely necessary... so, thanks!
Andrew And vyk, now that’s a colab I didn’t expect
Maeve main here, bought 5 levels in total, my now level 109.
I've only played Maeve mainly during my whole paladins life.
What I noticed:
Some champions really does her bad.
Androxus: If this androxus is very good it won't matter if you try to flee. He'll make quick shots while you are in mid air.

Jenos: His grab ability, you can't flee his grasp once you're in it.
Makoa: Keep your distance or he will grab you and one-punch you.
A Zhin guide would be neat as he has about 3 very viable builds which all can be played with different talents depending on the setup and comps
“Right click Q Right click”
*yes police? I think someone’s in my house*

I want to get deft hands but I got daft hands instead that cannot aim well consistently
Same
Lol nicce one
I think having Walk it off at least on lvl 2 would be greatly beneficial. I've never experienced major benefit from DR with Maeve, especially against snipers.
I have that on my Maeve and I can almost never die.
Also having chronos helps alot
Your hands down my favorite TH-camr right now, your videos are really helping me get even better at the best game in the world imo
Vyktoryah is a Maeve boss. 🔥🔥
aye its me :D
edits are really good :3
Damn this was super helpful hopefully you eventually do something like this for Io
Never thought you would make a mave guide
Summed up if you take anything away from this video it’s to always buy deft hands first
Ive learnt alot on how to counter maeve because i dont want to play her. So thanks!
Totally agree

I didn't know this video was new I just watched it
YES finally I was hoping frost fangs or you would finally do it thank you so much
I think I was the androxis in the intro.
that peace out outro with the falling maeve was epic.... ;)
Wow your right deft hands is insane on Maeve
I think I played with you today, nice vid man
This is a really well out Maeve guide. Thanks!
Me: *sees video*
My videos: Am I a joke to you
Thats cuz ur not famoos haha noob
@@THUGR4TED xD toxic maeve main?
@@nttcus6263 na i didnt play maeve in like 6 months, not toxic either only instalocking in casuals till i was lvl 69
Deft hands on maeve is kinda broken still waiting for that nerf
Ikr
Can we have an andro guide as well? And drogoz would be nice pls
My maeve guide: put on rogue's gambit and make sure to hit everyone once before focusing someone. Put heal and dr from pounce to max and go brr.
That's what I used to do but this season is sooo hard
I don't think you mentioned that during midnight if you are using prowl you are completely silent
didnt knew that wall glitch , nice tutorial!
It's not a glitch, it's intentional. You can do it with any champion, but it's especially helpful on Maeve because she can double jump.
I think there removeing the wall jump the patch
i know we're gonna lose when i see someone autolocks meave
Guide for those Maeve’s on console : bind L3 to jump and spam then spam it 👍
Adrix: Meave is so easy to get into
Andrew: 0:16

Poggers Maeve guide
damn good tutorial. i started this game 2 days ago and love playing this assasin type char. I also love healer
We need to make a koga guide all of them are outdated 😢
I love this guides so muchhhhhh
catburgler strat
hit 2 daggers then pounce then hit 2 daggers then q then pounce
Bruh most champions die just from the first set of two daggers with cat burglar
Is Maeve the only champ with more than one talent that augment the same ability?
Kinessa and Bomb King both have two talents that augment their weapons, Corvus has two talents that augment his mark, Dredge has two talents that augment his harpoon, Furia has two talents that augment her beam, Seris has two talents that augment Rend Soul (sort of), Sha Lin has two talents that augment crippling arrow, and Torvald has two talents for his protection.
why does meave have an execute on her right click when vora needs it as an ultimate? vora obliterate to execute when?
Obliterate is an aoe. So if two or more people fight you at or below 35% health they will die. It's better if dark siphon is an execute.
I have a question. Does Rouges Gambit stack like Tyras 20% reduced damage card (at lv5) ?
about the map thing im a maeve one trick to me every other champion feels dull and boring so i just learned to play around the maps that arent good and the ones that are
I watch the guide but I still can't aim with Meave it's sad :(
do you have any builds for street justice and rogue's gambit
Andrew: Is talking about cat burglar and how useful it is
Also Andrew: Using a Rouges gambit build
Me: That's not how you play the game
Rogue gambit is pretty good

hello you could tell me how we do to jump very high thank you
Now Mal"damba guide and we're done
Buying deft hands with Maeve is super op. This is why the item seems locked and why only the Maeve mains above level 100 are able to buy it. ;)
7:46 also if one of the enemy team have resli and a maeve ulted they can see thing earlier than the rest of the team
Doesn't say street justice anymore if you put in that card combo
@11:48 how does 6th sense give you more pounces ....
No 🤦♂️ rouges gambit give you more pounces so sixth sense is better to use as you will have DR more often now
Wow u so good bruh !!!
I wanted to see what playing Maeve using a controller was like and I regret even trying
Who came back here after the maeve's challenges from the trials of the realm?

deft hands the best item in game 👑
Maeve is like the warframe Ash.
You cant buy deft hands with meave
You can't use deft hands on maeve
Just tell me how to install kill a jenos on ps4 cause I’m fucking sick of dying instantly when I encounter a Maeve as jenos
I am disapointed that people voted for maeve...
haha maeve gaming go brrr
I honestly feel like she's sobasic that, if you're not a pro player is not worth picking. And that's because there are other options that i feel stronger... She's not enough "unique"
Cool, deft hands first item to buy... Wait what!?
How do ppl fly with Maeve
I need a new one for skye
Who doesn’t main Maeve
If i ever find anyone play street justice i will call you a milkdrinker
Sixth sense seams like a pretty trash card tbh. The healing while using prowl card seems is a lot better
If you are actually saying that you obviously don’t play Maeve
the best item to buy as maeve deft hands LMAOOO SHE CANT RELOAD
btw i understand hes joking
Maeve is easy once you learn how to aim with her change my mind...
