Yeah, I second this. It's a really annoying issue. It's possible that it is intentional so that the player can choose to dash down ramps or stairs, but the better solution would be to implement it the same way that Pocket's cloak works. If the player wants to dash down the stairs then the...

The very same is true with Viscous' Puddle Punch, when fully upgraded. If the item is not intended to benefit these abilities then it should not be put on cooldown.

Billy's Blasted does not apply Wrecked to Troopers, despite applying it to all other NPCs. Unsure if a bug or intentional. If the latter, might be worth specifying in the ability description.

Billy's Bashdown, when fully upgraded, does not benefit from Melee Charge's or Crushing Fists' 25% bonus to Heavy Melee damage; despite putting the item on cooldown. Note the item is on cooldown after using Bashdown.

Thank you Valve devs for addressing the matchmaking/rank issue!! I'll write more if there is anything. WRONG. Deadlock, Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2 and Half-life: Alyx are goated. I got promoted from Arcanist 5 to Oracle 2, whee!

Besides all the potentially disingenuous stuff I wrote, you are right that I do like to play too many heroes and it does affect my ability to iterate on skill. Nevertheless it does feel like the skill range of players in any particular rank is too high, which results in too much weight being...

My previous high was Ascendant I, then I took a year break and now I cannot escape Arcanist. I have over 1,000 hours. I play on the NA server. My overall winrate is 54% which was primarily achieved by solo queuing. My current experience with matchmaking is that unless I play a character that is...

If you use Quicksilver Reload right after Abrams starts reloading normally, it will break the reload completely and take twice as long to reload. It basically disarms Abrams for a long time.

Victor's Pain Battery fails when standing with your back to the wall at an angle, due to clipping.

Spellbreaker's Passive does not interact with Victor's Jumpstart self spirit damage.

Killing Blow should then be able to kill people in the cube who have low hp, but it does not. https://www.twitch.tv/hydration/clip/MagnificentHilariousKiwiRedCoat-7vQupYfNlFu7El93
