Here's why the SG Missions are Impossible
EDIT: read the comments. My understanding of the gamemode has changed thanks to CutestVoidlingNA and ooO Madoka Ooo
This is sort of a number of different frustrations regarding the Star Guardian Invasion game.
I've played three Onslaught games with 'exactly the same result'. Feel free to comment or disagree.
Everything felt fine until the 6th park. Our team was fine, but the circle started to move toward the end-of-level star. There were two void spawn-points behind us which we couldn't really reach cause the circle was moving already. We tried our hardest to burst them down but they were left with 50% health. So, we have 3-4 velkoz shooting at us from behind the entire walkway making it impossible to survive given the bullet storm many others have mentioned, and the scarners pulling us out.. oh, and the Cho'gath stomps. A huge problem is when the void, spawn outside of your visible range. And I'm talking about a KogMaw shooting at your team when his model is legit covered up by the fog of war. And no adc can hit him, and the mages even have a very difficult time reaching them, let alone killing them.
Also, during the "single little bridge with a small circle " phase, the void spawn-points are also extremely cheap. Many agree it's impossible. 5 giant chogaths, tons of Kha'zix, velkoz shootings, and lots of Kogmaws hiding in the fog-of-war outside of your view aim-botting right at you without fail. And with nowhere to run, it's this tiny little cluster **** on screen with no chance of escape or bursting everything down in time for them to shred you.
Note that I understand a Poppy, aoe dps like Jinx, and a support are necessary to beat the Onslaught semi-realistically.
My problem is when you start to look at the missions. "Win a game of Onslaught with NO MARKSMAN"
No.... absolutely no way that's happening. The best team you could have for that would be like
. Maybe that'd be doable. I highly doubt it. If there's something more practical than that, please comment so I can complete it.
"Win a game of Onslaught with NO MAGES"
So..
?
Again, let me know if there's something more optimal than that.
"Win a game of Onslaught with NO UTILITY"
since MF just sucks, yeah?
I think I'm convincing myself the missions are semi-doable. . . But I'm not gunna delete my post cause the majority of the player base (silver) aren't good enough to complete it.
Regardless, there are too many RNG crap traps and unfair spawn points, and then the final boss is just like.... .-. pls kil meh
