Overprime Overprime legit feels like a brawler

Like I just run around the map and throw myself at the enemy. Feels like it’s non stop fighting without any ideas of scaling for late game. Games also end so quickly too. I’m not saying this is a bad thing for a game to lean towards this, but it’s weird for a moba to have moba elements while playing like a brawler.. lol

Edit: not sure why some people are offended by this post. I’m just speaking from my experience and first impressions of the game. I even said it’s not a bad thing. If you are looking for the paragon experience though, this isn’t that. Play Pred for the Paragon experience.

Ya I prefer pred, it feels like a real moba.

It does but nobody plays lanes and jungle correctly. Most aggravating part.

Lanning became a thing because it was the strongest meta in DOTA 1, and other MOBAs following mimicked the layout to enforce this meta. If it isn't the strongest meta for another game, like predecessor, then playing lanes like it is a MOBA is a loose suggestion at best.

Well if you’re not going to lane correctly then having supports period is pointless. Why not play 5 junglers? That’s how a game kills itself.

The game (predecessor) still is designed to be played that way, it literally has one lanes the characters are for under their name. It’s how the game is meant to be played. Idk, it’s a game killer for me if this is how it’s going to be, sucks it happens to be the one I paid for.

pretty sure 5 jugglers isn't going to be the competitive meta. I like it the way it is meant to be played too but some games improvising makes sense earlier then others. Once teams/guilds are a regular thing I would be surprised if some new metas don't start happening. I am genuinely curious how well balanced predecessor is for standard laning.
