How are you enjoying this pause meta?

It seems that pausing in GC is now the primary strategy.

I've yet to see it, although I have a few 0 point matches because the defender regened to full, but has very suboptimal counters for them.

Try staying away from the defender

Oh, I know how to have it go away, just sometimes you get trapped in a corner because you don't have an unstoppable counter or something similar. Or you screw up and use an energy damage champ against Wiccan and they start spaming sp1

I'm not a fan of this Node selection. Back-and-forth, back-and-forth. Scaling Regen and distance narrows the field to very few effective Champs.
As for pausing, it should be stopped.

I’ve gotten used to it. Nullify, heal block, bleed immune. But one thing’s for sure. Pausing in bg’s should be punished. Sure, there can be valid resons to pause, but you should still lose points when pausing.

Didn't know it was a pause meta to begin with

I like this pause meta. I got my 400k in points and I have now pause the grind to take it easy. Thanks for asking.

He's great, but domino really shines in this meta, block a couple hits, throw an sp2, fight over, repeat if not, gotten some kills so quick was worried about being reported as a cheater.

Can you matchmake me? I'd love to know that I can get a free win from you by just using my 5* Silk.

There are many great champions for this meta that crush the enemies. I've seen 13 second ghost vs QS fights, Domino always finishes in 20-60 seconds for me too. Champions like Doom will have a hayday with all the regen buffs. Void will cause the defenders to kill themselves from regen. Titania is a beast for this meta too.

Lots of options are there that will get you way more points than simply pausing.

You come on the forum and praise domino for finishing in 20-60 seconds but if I do it, I just get complaints…

Pausing as a strategy is for no skill hacks.

Prefer GC nodes over VT nodes. But that's because my roster is more suited to it, except the time I tried to heal reverse sauron and got rolled.

GroundedWisdom

Anything with new metrics that focus on Health remaining and scaling Regen is not the experience I'm trying to have. I love a challenge, but dear God. Lol.

Nothing worse than finishing a 2-minute Fight with 0 Damage taken because they healed it all back.

Typical match this season in GC (second meta). I didn’t experience it much in VT (but I was only in VT for a week). It was a throw round but still.

Should be easy to fix. Divide people’s points by the following:
(total time - fight time + 1)

Suggest benching Mojo, I absolutely adore him and am actively considering him as an R5 but he’s not well suited for this meta.

This clown has gotta be a true pause wanker to have so little faith in Fury though.

Mojo is fine. Was a throw round. I won the match. It’s not unusual to see all matches go to the full time now. I timed out against that Mangog but an 18 seconds pause win means this person has no incentive to try at all as soon as things get tough.

Pausing is rampant in GC. Kabam should probably fix it before next season…

Have not used my R5 ghost since this meta started.

Ayden_noah1

I have recently love my 7 star @Mysterio more and more each BG. He's heal block is amazing for this meta. On defence he's a pain to fight against. Too bad he keeps getting ban, but when I get a chance to use him, his win rate is over 90%. Long live King @Mysterio.

That’s typically down to poor deck building / drafting.

They could have been disconnected or had a crash and came back in with only 18 seconds left. I've had that happen at least once or twice to me this season

Some of it. The other is having Champs that do adequate Damage, or Heal Block (Stagger, Nullify, etc.). Otherwise you're limited to Evade, MLLL, Dex, repeat.

@Ayden_noah1 I respect you my man.

So poor deck building then..?

Or just mabye you can use the right counters to the nodes :O

There is an abundance of bleed immune nullifiers/heal blockers, I don't get the huge issue with people struggling with this meta. 3/4 of my BG roster directly counters them, the other 1/4 being the biggest pain in the ass defenders, another 1/4 being both counters and defenders when needed.

What are you in Mysterium or higher?
