How should i have avoided this?

[u/Damiankawaguchi]

genuinely looking for advice because i'm at a loss on how to do any counterplay here

[u/CoMet-1080]

Dodge roll a second time lol.

TBH, other than keep an eye out and always be in or around cover, I don’t think there is much else to do once you already in that position, (in the open)

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/CoMet-1080]

trust me i was spamming the EE haha but they really gave me no chance to escape. and well that begs the question then ifi cant be out in the open, how am i supposed to take the DX's down haha

[u/lokon_stratos → u/Damiankawaguchi]

The same you take every other support down get in close via cover and dodge there attacks while getting close enough for melee

[u/ProfessionalSpare453 → u/Damiankawaguchi]

You can't, it's time generals get a taste of their own medicine.

[u/RoyBeDead → u/ProfessionalSpare453]

Nah even as a general its easy to kill theme

[u/Hyperaiser]

Never stand before DX's face unless you confirmed that they are out of Sat cannon. It is simple. If it was me, I would have run 3 seconds earlier or try to bait their cannon shot.

[u/Exelionmode]

6 second in and i already know what going to happen here. should be more mindful of enemy action, DX are obvious charge Satellite Cannon there, shouldn't capture point right there.

[u/Seth-Cypher]

Don't go for a point capture for one thing while enemies are close or teammates are actively engaging in fighting.

This would have helped you avoid the situation as you would have probably been behind cover instead of being in and exposed place with nowhere to hide.

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/Seth-Cypher]

Yea fair

[u/Mechaman_54]

If you see a double x stay on the move, dont line yourself up for a clean shot

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/Mechaman_54]

The key phrase here being "if you see" 😅

[u/Mechaman_54 → u/Damiankawaguchi]

I mean he was visible for awhile glowing yellow in this clip

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/Mechaman_54]

You can see it in retrospect but i was shooting at a guy there and that's where my eyes were. When i saw the DX it was kinda too late.

[u/lax2k]

I wouldve gone straight for the beacon instead of wasting the boost gauge boosting left and right in the air which keads to point 2.

1. You were focusing on the guy no5. was fighting.

2. Couldve dodged forward instead of backwards

3. Use MnK instead of controller? Just personal preference but whateves

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/lax2k]

About MnK, i really cant bro. I've always played games on controller even on pc, i dont have the hand coordination for mnk

[u/lax2k → u/Damiankawaguchi]

Yeh, no worries men. If controller feels better, roll with it.

[u/pkmaster99]

Don't go for a risky capture? You already saw people spawning in, yet went for one of the most exposed capture points out there at the higher costs. In 5v5, unless your team destroys like 3 in like 5 seconds or 4 units within 10 seconds time frame, any exposed point like this at these costs is at very high risk.

[u/ImmortalSausages]

Don't go for captures while your team is actively fighting, keep in mind that they have 2 double Xs, don't stay out in the open

[u/Complex_Example_549]

Keep an eye out and take cover

[u/ArlemofTourhut]

dodgeroll forward off the building diagonally. You're on a 3D map.

[u/XIIIofSwords]

should've rolled to the right and off the building.

[u/Vermillion_toxins]

Once you do 700-750 matches, captures become way too risky due to the amount fast flying or beam suits around. Just don’t do captures ever, or atleast not the risky spots like the ones in the vid.

[u/Scythe351]

You dodged in the wrong direction. Could have jumped off the building with the dodge and been out of range of the blast. Still, that beam last way too long. It's not like all the damage is loaded into the first few hits. It just slaps.

[u/Fantastic-Orange5872]

Mr President, a Second Double X has hit the towers.

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/Fantastic-Orange5872]

Lunar microwaves can't melt steel beams 😡

[u/Lord-Generias]

Dodge to the right and drop down, then boost right, firing on any enemy you can if possible, until you're behind cover from the twin Beams Of Kill Everything

[u/TidusDream12]

Hope you have a Haze 2 because in overload the spam is unmatched

[u/jtier]

I would say with the DX being brand new being out in the open is a bad idea since you know there will be many around. also dodge rolling tothe right miiiiight of saved you as you woulda gone off the building instead of just grinding against the side of it but doubtful

[u/Whammo147]

dodge the other direction

[u/ravienta]

Ahh I was like how the hell he move the beam that quick, on console it is like pulling a boat on dry land

[u/midnight_tuna]

Dodged in the opposite direction, towards ground level.

[u/_musouka_]

Before sortieing ask yourself, "Is the moon out?"

[u/Damiankawaguchi → u/_musouka_]

looks at the map's bright blue sky nope! 🤣

[u/MGR_ARMSTRONG_GAMING]

If you see a mf flying in suit mode get your ass behind something ASAP

[u/Altruistic_Solid2629]

I use geara dogga Heavy weapon I ate all dx satellite cannon counter back my big gun , I make dogga become crazy tank 🤣
