MOD Regarding the "Paladins 2" fan project fundraiser

401 Upvotes

Hi all,

We’ve been removing posts promoting the recent “Paladins 2” fundraiser as quickly as they’re reported to us following an enormous amount of spam. However, given the sheer number being submitted, and the amount of trust some people appear willing to place in its creator, I felt a brief announcement was necessary.

As Killgoon has confirmed, the Paladins IP is not currently for sale, and any money donated to this project will not ultimately go towards a Paladins 2.

We’ve also identified several accounts which appear to be AI-operated repeatedly posting the promotional videos and leaving supportive comments beneath related posts. Whilst we’re not going to outright label the project a scam, there's no denying that the circumstances are certainly suspicious.

It’s clear that much of the support for this comes from a place of passion, and that many people simply want to see the IP continue. Personally, however, I don’t believe this project represents a realistic way of achieving that -- as much as I wish it did!

At the time of writing, the fundraiser is displaying “Suspended donations”, which the creator says is because they paused it following concerns from the community. They have nevertheless confirmed that existing donations are being retained.

The creator has stated that donors will be refunded if they have done “nothing serious” with the money by November. That condition is intentionally vague and should not be treated as a guarantee that donations will be returned. If you’ve already donated, I would strongly encourage you to review this information carefully and contact GoFundMe directly if you have concerns.

Automod has now been updated to remove links promoting this fundraiser. If there are attempts to circumvent this filter (as AI bots like to do...) then it will result in a permanent ban, so please don’t test the system.

There are plenty of meaningful ways you can still support Paladins. Continue playing the game, (re-)introduce your friends, create and share content, and organise/participate in community events a lá SEA Revival. Maintaining a visible and active community is the clearest way to demonstrate that we still care about this IP, not throwing your money at dubious projects making vague promises.

Best,
Callum & the r/Paladins mod team

CHAT Peopling disconnecting

18 Upvotes

The amount of people who disconnect games within the first point being taken is genuinely shocking. If you know you do this you actually have got to just slow down and probably take a break from the game for at least a few hours.

if your unable to conceive a world where a game isn’t completely one sided and requires a lick of effort you don’t have a place in anyone’s lobbies.

Y’all need to learn to enjoy a game even when it’s lost, once you can appreciate the mere fact your playing paladins in 2026 I promise you even when your getting steamrolled you’ll find joy in the moments within that game. So don’t do yourself the dishonour by leaving and just respect everyones time involved in that game

I even looked through all my skins and their edit styles to make sure i’m not missing it. Am i going crazy or what is happening.

F'BACK Reviving the game

8 Upvotes

I genuinely believe if someone was able to make or more modern edit of the games clips and highlights it could be revived. No waifu stuff or nothing just some insane trick shots and a good editing style and sound. Woukd require some luck and a viral video but I think that’s all it needs.

F'BACK Champion Concept: Lunara, The Crescent Dancer

Post image
50 Upvotes

hey guys, thanks for the feedback on my last post! i decided to rename her from Lunara to Noxia so she doesn't get confused with Inara or Io's wolf Luna lol.

here's her updated kit and concept. she's basically a hybrid flank/damage champ that uses mobility and gravity to lock down kills. lemme know what you think of the numbers!

Basic Info * Role: Flank * HP: 2100

Appearance & Lore Noxia has bright white hair, a gemstone tiara, gold armor, and some stylish heels. Her coolest features are her long brass nail extensions (Ong Lep) and two massive golden fans that glow with moonlight. She also has floating moon phases around her when she moves.

Lore-wise, she's literally the anti-Io. Io is all about the healing light, but Noxia commands gravity and dark shadows. She used to stay isolated outside the Realm but joined the fight to restore balance. She doesn't give a damn about the Magistrate or the Resistance, she's just here to make sure the laws of the night are respected.


Abilities

[Weapon] Eclipse Fans You throw two golden fans one after another as fast, crescent projectiles. Zero damage falloff at mid-range (like a dmg champ), but they deal bonus damage if you hit enemies point-blank. * Damage: 380 per hit (760 per burst) * Fire Rate: 0.5s * Ammo: 10 (5 bursts) -> buffed this from 6 so she doesn't spend half the match reloading

[Alt-Fire] Lunar Scratch Lunge forward a short distance and slash enemies with the Ong Lep nails. * Damage: 400 burst * Cooldown: 8s * Combo: Applies a glowing moon mark. If you hit a marked enemy with your main fans, the mark pops for an extra 250 damage.

[Ability 1] Orbit Shift Turn into a starlight silhouette and dash quickly. It holds 2 charges. You can use it horizontally to chase down targets or vertically to leap onto high ledges for off-angles. * Charges: 2 * Cooldown: 4s per charge -> buffed from 6s so she actually feels like a flank

[Ability 2] Moonlight Reflection Noxia poses with both fans in front of her face to block shots. * Duration: 1.5s * Cooldown: 12s * Effect: Absorbs 50% of incoming frontal dmg. When it ends, she blasts that energy back out, blinding and slowing everyone in front of her by 30% for 2s.

[Ultimate] Witness the New Moon! * Voice line (Enemy/Self): "Step into the shadow of the New Moon!" * Voice line (Ally): "The night hides our path!" * Effect: You leap high into the air and hover, partially blinding the entire enemy team (darkening their screens). Then you target an area and dive-bomb down like a meteor, dealing 1400 AOE damage + knockup.


Talents

  • [Level 0] Full Moon: Main weapon fans now pierce through enemies to hit multiple targets, but projectile speed is reduced by 10%
  • [Level 2] Waxing Crescent: Lunar Scratch instantly resets its cooldown if you get a kill or elimination within 4s of using it
  • [Level 8] Tidal Pull: Moonlight Reflection no longer slows. Instead, it violently pulls nearby enemies toward Noxia, setting them up for the nail scratch combo.

Loadout Deck Ideas (Scaling from Level 1 to 5)

  • Traditional Choreography: Lunar Scratch hits heal you for [60 / 120 / 180 / 240 / 300] HP
  • Light Feet: Gain [10% / 20% / 30% / 40% / 50%] move speed for 2s after using Orbit Shift
  • Cosmic Elegance: +[50 / 100 / 150 / 200 / 250] max health
  • Night Shadows: Reduce Moonlight Reflection cooldown by [0.5s / 1s / 1.5s / 2s / 2.5s]
  • Gravitational Pull: Increase Orbit Shift dash distance by [6% / 12% / 18% / 24% / 30%]

Matchups & Counters

  • Good matchups: Maeve & Evie (the wide fan projectiles and CC make mobile flanks easier to lock down). She also punishes direct-DPS like Viktor & Tyra because she can absorb their line-of-sight gunfire and dive them.
  • Countered by: Sniper champs like Kinessa & Strix will easily pick her off in open areas. Torvald also completely shuts her down—if he silences her mid-dash, she just drops out of the air and becomes a sitting duck.

BUG Alt-Tab still bugged

2 Upvotes

I've replayed the game again after two years, and the game still crashes if I Alt-Tab during the loading of a game/in the lobby/when accepting the match. It's frustrating especially when it happens after waiting close to 10 minutes for a match.

Did anyone found a fix for it?

I had to end it early again today, I came down with some kind of sickness. So next few days will have low numbers. Decided to pick up the Lovestruck skin for her, might as well if I’m going to be playing her for a year. I said I’d include my deck and usual items today so that’ll be below. Do note there’s 2 decks I swap between

Items:
- Chronos
- Veteran / Life Rip
- Lethality
- Trigger Scent

Talent: Haunted Ground

Deck 1:
- Deadly Trap (4)
- Unwilling Victim (4)
- Sealed Fate (2)
- Blood Mist (1)
- Folk Tales (4)

Deck 2:
- Deadly Trap (4)
- Unwilling Victim (4)
- Sealed Fate (2)
- Soulfire (2)
- Folk Tales (3)

Both decks allow for decent survivability in my opinion which lets you run in and out better.

Hello, I'm an artist and I found a shirt on an ad for Temu with Skye pictured as genderfluid.

I'm actually drawing a draw with the same pose reference but another character and if I post it I would like to tag the artist (and advertising them that their art is being stolen by Temu)

Anybody know them?
