(ez against bots, some duo spamming spanish nonsense after they scored the first goal (They lost, which felt awesome) "Thanks for the assist bro" (after enemy goalkeeper messed up a defensive shot) and of course the classics "just delete and kys".)Ī. The first one is easy: Don't be a cunt/dick.ĭuring my games this night I met many players on my team or the other saying lots of insulting stuff to teammates and opposing players. The idea came to me to put a guide here for newer players and those who seek to improve. However, after experiencing the worst games in arcade this season (not copaball). In higher SR, players understand the role of every hero know that a Lucio sitting behind his team on heals the whole time would be soft-throwing.I placed masters in Lucioball last season and was really excited that the gamemode is back again. I assume you are in lower SR, because I see all the time low SR players flipping that Lucio does not literally just sit with his team on heals…which is 100% not how he should be played. Calling a Lucio player out for, as your complaint says, playing the hero, is dumb. ![]() I obviously did not see your game so maybe it was a troll, but people can troll on any hero. His mobility is intended to let him chase down kills, have enemy position awareness, and knock enemies around to distract and set up plays. Lucio should be with the team sometimes, and during team fights, but he also should be off doing other things. Lucio is a flanker and counter flanker he enables and pockets tanks the same way Mercy can pocket a DPS. ![]() ![]() People who complain about it have a basic knowledge of the game, imo. I will stress it again the concept of ‘Reddit Lucio’ is vilified needlessly for memes it is 80% of how the hero should be played. You don’t think that is frustrating also? That means that the Mercy player is not going to play Mercy as intended either she should sit and pocket a ranged DPS she’s awful with Brawl/Rush. What you are saying to me is, ‘I wanted to play my hero as I see fit, but the other support on our team playing their hero as intended did not let me do what I want!’ I’m an off-support main and I queue into games all the time, lock my hero, and watch the other support clearly flounder a bit with our Rein/Zar/Tracer/Mei/Lucio and…still lock Mercy. Lucio was reworked for that exact reason about 4 years ago, to make him more mobile and difficult to heal with, to encourage quick flanking style gameplay where he has to ferry around.ĭid you stop to think that maybe it was you playing Mercy that could be an issue? Lucio/Mercy with a hog could be enough healing for a team in lower SR, though not ideal, but if a Mercy is hard-pocketing a Pharah it likely is not…but Pharmercy is not very strong right now anyway, so why should a team go even more into a bad comp? He is not meant to sit with the team in a choke or on a point. There is of course a very fine line between feeding and doing your job -like any hero-, but Lucio is intended to take small fights, backline, and boop enemy players around to make space. The concept of ‘reddit Lucio’ is like actually 80% of how Lucio is intended to be played. I would even go as far as to say playing Lucio like that is a reportable offense for gameplay sabotage. If you solo Q, you are essentially making life harder for everyone. Reddit Lucios only work if you have a very coordinated team of players. it’s not a fun experience to be flamed for something out of your control. Just please, if our team all needs healing and you’re playing Lucio, just stay with the team and help your other healer. Our Hog was complaining about being silver on healing. ![]() Literally I was the only one healing on our team because our Lucio was flanking all game, his aura not in range of anyone. They kept complaining about not getting healed and calling me trash. My entire team was flaming the healers (me playing Mercy, and our Lucio). We ALMOST lost the game because I was the only one healing our entire team and we had a pharah along with it. Just got done in a competitive game playing as Mercy and I had a Lucio on my team that was constantly going behind the enemy team and trying to boop/damage the entire game.
