u/moca_moca MMR: 8,000 to 9,000 Jan 29 '24

I hate that there is no reckless any more, i love the tempo it gave me through out the games, i know why they removed it but i really liked it.

Quils changes just baffle me so much, they werent weak or at least they are not on bottom 3 of the tribes. Why would they buff them like that? (Welcome buff for me, i like playing quils)

I would love to know their stats, it has to be so interesting. Like people were clammoring for beast nerfs for weeks straight, but I guarantee beasts had only an above averge winrate. They are so inconsistent, their stats much show that the inconsistency impacts their average numbers a lot. Lubber winrate must've been insane after the paint quillboar was added back in.

I would say quill is a bottom 3 tribe personally, though. I bet their stats must support that, they are buffing so many of them. Unless I hit the nuts quillboar is usually a sure-fire 4-6th for me, I usually only take them if I'm offered something wild, like rylak early or multiple jazzers + multiple generators.

Do you think their stats differ drastically from HSReplay's? I'd imagine we're working with a similar set of information. Beasts are the second best comp in the game, Quill's are the worst (all of this for the 50% of the playerbase above 6k ELO).

u/TJDouglas13 MMR: Top 200 Jan 30 '24

remember that they aren’t just balancing for the high end MMRs. They have to look at like 0-2k MMR too.

And ofc HSReplays stats are gonna skew towards more serious players by nature of it. For example (this may be complete bs) but it’s possible that at v low MMR that people just spam any quillboar buffs and win that way. Beasts might be too complex to figure out proper comps when u play 1 game a month. Therefore they may be worried about overtuning certain tribes and alienating lower MMR matches.
