2xko has been receiving a lot of publicity with the upcoming tournament and with it some new players. For everyone who has been playing since beta to play nice when you match against a new player.

I remember when I first started learning the game in beta I played against a few rioters including the one and only Unconkable. He mixed my shit with Yasuo/Darius freestyle and showed off some cool things that you can do in the game. But he also recognized I was new and let me get some hits in and practice my combos. I don't think I got a round, but he also never got a perfect round.

Ignore this if you're playing ranked lol

Every game I play freezes on Xbox. It's gotten progressively worse and it's extremely frustrating cause I enjoy the game a lot.

At&T and Riot threw HARD not making the tournament duos somehow. Ik its 5 per team but they could have made captains jugg or something idk. The duos content is so hilarious

I tried to play this again after putting the game away, since duo matchmaking was added. I’m in the US but I’m in a lobby full of people not at cabinets and it cannot find another player myself either duo or solo.

It’s causal so there shouldn’t be much restriction

I'm aspirant 3 and started playing 2 days ago.

I played 47 ranked matches today, out of those, I got 8 wins.

After a 9 game lose streak I got matched with a master 3 player. I also often match with silver players but that's fine I think.

Is there just not enough people playing? Is rematching people bad for MMR accuracy ? I just want to understand.

They played a mix of 1V1s rotating people out while the others spectated on screen, then played 2V2, then back to 1V1 while Lily coached Squeex on the training mode at the same time. It really was just like hanging out with the squad in the same room getting games in, even though everyone was online.

They spoke highly of the pulse mode where it was nice to just be able to do easy combos. Watching Squeex 1V1 Fuslie while Lud and Lily coached in real time, and then gassing each other up whenever they successfully anti aired was just good vibes. Fuslie said it was the most fun she’s had playing a fighting game and played the game for like 7 hours to keep playing with friends, despite trying to end stream long before to sleep.

I think the new player experience is most frustrating when you kinda understand what’s going on and you’re grinding ranked by yourself. The flipside is Jakenbake was losing his mind grinding ranked in plat whenever something BS happened or something didn’t work the way it felt like it should. Which let’s be fair, is all the time in this game.

AS the title states, my kitsune is suddenly using the touchpad as a mouse and I dont know how to correct that. Does anyone have an Idea how to fix. Happens in both PS/PC modes. It was working fine 30 minutes ago but now its a pain to reset in training.

Teamfight Fuse Adjustments

We launched Teamfight last week, and we love that it lets duos reach new, chaotic heights. We also want to make sure that it works best with good coordination and strategic use. With that said, we’re adjusting Teamfight to make it more interactive for both attackers and defenders.

In its current form, Teamfight allows for explosive offense, but counterplay is high risk with little reward. In high-level play, having a second body to hop in and parry or block to prevent Break activation is too oppressive, and doesn’t line up with the Fuse’s intended identity.

To increase the decisionmaking around Teamfight, we're changing how it interacts with meter and adding more options for defending against it. Teamfight enthusiasts will need to work a little harder to tap into its maximum potential.

These changes are coming in patch 1.2.3, which is slated to go live June 9.

Offensive Adjustments

Teamfight can now spend up to 6 bars of meter when used. (Up to 3 per champion.)

Teamfight duration now depends on the number of meter bars spent to activate it.

• 2 bar: 5 seconds
• 4 bars: 10 seconds
• 6 bars: 15 seconds
• Meter cost is still paid by both the Assist and Point champs. If one champion has 3 bars and another has 1, Teamfight will only use 2 bars total—1 from each champion.
• Teamfight will always activate at the highest level possible. If you have the meter, there’s no way to choose a lower activation level.

Teamfight now has 12 frames of recovery, up from 5 frames.

• Performing a Teamfight into parry was too strong as a defensive option.
• 12 frames of recovery when performing Teamfight keeps combos intact, but severely reduces the viability of using it defensively.

Defensive Options

Teamfighting champions can no longer block or parry an opponent’s Break activation.

• Performing Teamfight then having the Assist block was creating unexciting play patterns with little counterplay.

Successfully parrying a Teamfighting champion now immediately ends Teamfight.

• Parry in 2X is already a high risk high reward option, and parrying a Teamfighting champion previously did not lead to a significant advantage for the defender and was incredibly risky.

Hitting a Teamfighting champion now applies 2.5x more Teamfight duration reduction.

• Successfully attacking an opponent’s Teamfight will now disable it significantly faster.

Being able to tag twice is so fundamentally strong that I don't even know how you could nerf it. But since everyone's talking about it now with teamfight nerfs getting announced, I was kinda thinking about it

Make burst faster

• If it's unreactable, you can still guess to bait burst if your assist is on screen, but you can't just go "oh a green flash I'll tag now" like you currently can

Longer cooldown

• 6 seconds is already noticeable, but it's obviously not a massive drawback if you can get a hit with freestyle, do a 3 second combo, and then do a short blockstring and get it back.
  • Maybe they could make it so blockstrings post-freestyle don't let your assist recharge immediately? (like using assists in combos)

Add a bit of damage scaling after a second tag

• I don't think the benefit of freestyle was ever supposed to be combo damage, especially when double down is right there. But it still lets you hit 3 bar ToDs and stuff
• It would obviously need to be more thought out than that, but maybe it could make supers have more scaling? They already did this for double down, so I think it'd be pretty reasonable to do the same thing with harsher scaling.

Damage increase on freestyle assists before they leave

• this would make using freestyle in neutral a bit riskier. Just clipping a freestyle assist with something could do like 1.5x or 2.0x damage to encourage people to use it a little more safely.
  • Especially if they just boosted the first hit by a huge chunk - that way you don't get a random ToD or anything, but if you get a stray hit in on the assist it'll do like 20% or something
  • That's kinda how skullgirls works and it does a good enough job keeping stuff like H Brass in check
