My new Stukov build is pretty scary, even topping the damage at times.

Tyrande: I guess now there will be no support assassins.
Stukov: Hold my Vodka
Drinking game: every time you hear PERMANENTLY SLOW you drink :)
@DnllnGproductions EZ Permanently Slow dude
You'd be fucking dead.
I see you game, and i propose a part 2. Take another shot for each time he says "damage" if you survive after 5 min, I'm calling Guinness record.
Yeah... NP has a a bad habit of repeating the same thing every 10s for an entire video. It's like an infomercial slogan sometimes.
you would be Dead till the ned off the game 🤣
I just wanted to catch the build quickly, but stayed and watched the whole thing because I was *Permanently Slowed*
So to be clear, his slows are only temporary?
P E R M A N E N T L Y S L O W
It slows by 20% for 1.5 seconds. As long as you keep hitting them with your auto attack you keep them slowed.
Death cleanse the slow, so he's falsely advertising you can permanently slow.
@@nialldowning8463 /r/woooosh
@@MaxinRudy You could say they're dying slowly ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
"Hey guys, so"
More comforting words have never been uttered.
About the coment that "you never lose games".
Maybe you can show us games when you lose and explain what the team or you did wrong.
Afterall you learn more from your losses imo.
He told us in the last video's comments why he doesn't usually show loses.
Lose. It's spelled lose. Drop the extra o dude.
That'd be tight
"I'm gonna 1v1 this muradin" immediately shove him to the base... Good video for my main:) btw
"I think I just saved him" :D
Yeah that would've been my thought as well if I was in that game, but hearing you talk when you pushed that Muradin in that situation makes clear why you did it.
It's quite a difference if you just see somebodys actions or hear his thoughts about it as well.
Oh jeez Oh god I hope I did the Rag mains proud.
I know it is not the popular route, but I'm a huge fan of what I call the "repeated BKS Build" where I take Fetid touch, One good spread, and targeted excision. With the quest done this places my pustule and my BKS on the same 5 second cool-down with the reduced cool-down on the heal making it to where I can heavily sustain my team while also regularly applying a strong slow on enemies. It feels nice to use with virulent reaction too as it lets you use your pustule often and still have it when you need it for roots. Having BKS on a smaller cool-down lets you potentially root more often or at less opportunity cost as well.
Pox Populi has a strange combination with bio armor. Bio armor gives 15 armor, popping it gives 35. 35 + 15 = 50 but then the extra 3 second from the second pathogen that pox gives you gives you another 15 armor, giving whomever you heal 65 armor flat which is insane.
I noticed you had some abilities on quick cast: on release. Would you mind to do a quick video about which abilities do you use that setting and why do you like it?
im not sure if you can tell whether he is using on release or clicking, but usually people swap those setting so that you can see the targeting and know how far and wide skillshots are or w/e. If it is an ability that doesnt need to be cast a million times, it's a nice alternative that keeps you accurate
"on release" gives you precision, and an idea about the range and radius the skills have, etc.
"quick cast" just gives you some ms of difference (which at top level, or for skills you are constantly spamming, it might make a difference, but usually it's not that bad to just press and release quickly).
Even in mobas more complex they dont usually use the quick mode
Just go in try mode and play around w/ the settings and see what you like. Don't just go with what other people tell you; you'll ultimately do better with the hero when the controls are more comfortable to you.
This is the build I’ve been going for months, very effective and it leads to less deaths cause of your positioning.
Wow, its great that someone finally reveals this crazy build! I have been using this build when I was main support role. Stukov has a lot of strengths, but this build is giving him a lot of safety in the late game! But always think about your build, the build is not the dogma as things are getting changed from time to time and you have to react to enemy composition.
This beautifully showcases why one of the biggest mistakes many players make is a mistake: any hero's autoattack is worth to be used. Learn the aa animation, learn the stutterstep, get a feel for when you can attack safely. It adds so much value!
"Literally permanent slow" - NotParadox 2018
Underrated channel. Love your content and always a good informative breakdown! Keep up the good work!
I love that cheeky little Muradin dive at the very end looking for a free kill before he loses, and how Kel'Thuzad would have completely fucked him up if it wasn't for the match end
10:02 that's a sweet Ana kill.
So satisfying
@@rolandmelles4484 Yeah, i bet Ana was like, woohoo i escaped, but Kel'Thuzad was like, nope.
Oh no, now I'll see a lot of Stukovs in my Quick Matches trying this build. *Why?!*
The fuck do you mean ' *Why?!* '? It's fucking good, obviously.
Azure Except most people he'll find in his quickmatch effectively won't have a level 13 talent :D
Yeah, nothing I love as much as randoms trying to root over and over and saving enemies with shove
it's good in the long term definitely; short term you'll probably see a lot of people who don't know how to auto attack or focus so much on auto attacking they never heal/cc anyone
Good video either way as it encourages people to try out new things
True, after the Zagara game I started to see alot of Zagaras in qm and unranked.
13:20 best part, thats how i play stukov
Really great video! I honestly thought Stukov was dead after the nerf, havent' seen him played much except here and there and honestly had written him off as one of the "bad healers". But looks like he's still viable. Granted, the map you were on with 2 lanes which means you'll always have 4 players bot typically allowed your healing to be that much more substantial since grouped teams benefit the most from him as a healer.
P E R M A N E N T L Y S L O W
I think it would be great if spine launcher added a weighted pulsate on the target. that would require decreased slow on the w though because it would be so powerful otherwise. but it would work perfect with the lvl 7 talent targeted excision.
Spine Launcher has been my favorite first talent since his early days (mainly because it was the easiest for me to play). Glad to see a thorough video on it.
Yeah, there is something intuitive about the way spine launcher sets up the other abilities. Low blow is fun on obj hold maps
This build not new. It was used a long time ago. Though sometimes you have to heal team, not slow opponents down, it is good for controlling and helping your mates get takedowns.
You’re boosting the Ana’s heals once she gets the root/slow clear.
Take a shot everytime you hear "slow"
literaly been using that talent since his release .. nice to see you finally caught up
Hey NP, I know it may seem a bit rude to ask, but have you considered using Colourblind mode for your recordings to be a bit easier on the eyes of R/G colourblind fans?
I like spine launcher for regular pvp (or i should say when i still played regular. PvP) and W based lvl1 builds in brawl for almost infinite mana - which is the only mode i play now. Wish they made brawl games count toward dailies and event quests.
If you dont want to watch the video skip at 18:46
But its worth to watch full
Love the vids and the length. Do u think u could also fit in when to draft the hero, counters n weakneses (heroes to avoid playing against?)
Good videos mate , id like to see a Reghar guide / gameplay too ! :)
Glad to see your favorite hero being relevant again XD
Hey NotParadox, could you do a short video sometime on recommended graphics/sound/etc settings? Curious what you use for settings for competitive play. Thanks!
I prefer W on my lvl 1. As you say damage drops off and spine launcher becomes much less useful. Unless you snowball the early game eventually it's just used for the slow. I like the W quest because late game you can throw them out constantly so you're getting that same slow plus you get more chances to combo W with you E for a root. IMO those big roots late game are going to win more games for the team then some extra pressure early game.
been playing this exact build since forever. didnt actually think it was going to be "meta" for paradox lol
Where did the game placed u after placements matches and with how many wins? Btw great vid :D
love your videos i just found your channel the other day and i already have been playing better
Hey eh I love your videos and I would love to see a : ‘’ Why the pros play/don’t play Murky ‘’ ;p
I never knew you could tap braxis beacons
Have been doing this build for quite a while. It is really good.
Switch "PERMANENT" to "CONSTANT | CONTINUOUS" and I'll be happy, but it's not permanent, as it doesn't stay there forever, which would be the definition of the word PERMANENT...
Brand new stukov player here. How often should I be using bio-switch purely to heal? I've been kind of using it off cooldown ever since I started paying stukov and people get really mad at me :,)
Basically use it for when the team, or hero needs a big heal. Typically save it for big fights
Thank you for this! I love Stukov but never play him unless I'm in a brawl were I kill no matter what build I do, but I do need another healer to fall back on when I don't want to alex or brightwing. I'd like to get better with whitemane as well but that's a case of knowing when to pick her if she's not ban or took on top of the nerf I'm not sure which build to go with her since the results are not consistent enough to go "I should work on this more" So I've stayed away from whitemane more than i'd like.
she's ez mode aslong as you take talent that resets your mana at 4 you can qqqwe and have 70% mana left every time
if you combine that with lvl 1 talent to heal allies you can also qqq1 and reset mana when there isn't an enemy around to hit.
good for camps and healing in between fights etc
I usually sit at around 80 to 90k healing in your average match with this.
take a shot for every time he says "Slow"
He had used his escape and so he became _permanently slowed_.
How about a solo lane Stukov who facetanks the enemy team 1 v 4? Cuz that's what I had in QM yesterday. Refused to team up, or even try to stay alive. Fun times.
lol. pretty sure that was me
Why not use lurking arm for camps with this build? (Aside from missing stutter step)
*Literally temporarily permanent slow*
Do you have suggestions on how to properly manage his trait? I find it to be very unforgiving which can ruin team fights.
Wait till the last heal tick on your main target/s
Seeing you transforming Stukov into an AA dps makes me wonder what if D.va can be played as an AA dps with her already high damage(all this in pilot mode). And if it can be competitive.
No
Rich has been running this build on stream for weeks, you're pulling a lot of content from him and gen.g in general lately and you didn't even mention him in this video. "My new Stukov build" lol
Can you do a new why does the Pros Play....
I would love an Alarak or Zeratul one
Rynox the prose don’t play right now.
these tips applies to all ranks, he shows what he does right and what he should do.
@@truemrfu9673 but from old games
I'd like a Why the pros don't play kel'thuzad
Nice. I find the healers pretty boring ever since they nerfed rhegar but this build seems pretty kino.
Thank you! I will try your build for sure.
P.S. Pax Populi is latin and you should pronounce it "populee" ;)
spine launcher stukov is one of the biggest bullys i can think of in the game.
I lol hard when that Muradin almost got away
PERMANENT
Can you do mistakes with Alarak? Or how to Alarak? Since the rw I'm pretty bad at him and it's one of my fav char :( pls
At 4 level difference (11 - 15) nothing is relevant anymore. You can pretty much do whatever you want.
Lurking arm still the best build. Especially with today's patch.
4 levels up. "I do lose games." Let's see how you throw this.
Wonder what will happen when they run out of characters to add.
I have a question for you Paradox, what do you think about these long queue times in the game since 2 weeks ago?, you think is just a bug with the MM or the game is dying, but dying pretty fast?
I noticed that too, and my weird theory is that a decent chunk of people are playing Destiny 2 since it was advertised free in the battle.net client. I know all the people I play hots with and myself have been doing that.
Are you talking about hero league? Because my Team league ques are still good. Often under a minute.
@@ew8651 True, same here, i usually dont wait that long, dont know how people are getting crazy long queues
Daniel Jiménez My QM queues were almost 5-10 minutes. Something is up. It consistently used the “accept broken comps” mode.
Hopefully people are just playing ranked or unranked instead of QM. QM as it is right now is such a fucking terrible game mode, so I can't be to sad about your longer Q times ^^
Damn, I already faced this Stukov Build Days ago. Stukov destroyed me and my Team with that...
You should put your builds in the info panel
I been doing this build since spine launch exist SON!
Ugh I hate when teams stay for way too long when we could be getting camps, a boss or pushing anther lane. Sometimes it makes sense to stay but usually people just want to stay because they feel cool or something.
I see the point of taking that 1 lvl, but i think as Stukov you should focus in getting kills using you slow +silence combo instead of just getting damage.
Patxi Sueskun I think the reason he recommends this is because he is grand master. Most of them are able to focus on utilizing the whole kit of the hero. However you are correct, at lower Elo you should focus on stukovs group healing and play making root talent, Not dps.
Probius best boy
The W Mana/CD reduction quest is much more useful, it fits in at least three different builds and has much more utility. It's a bit of a waste to try compensating damage for others, you are a healer anyway.
Have you ever played Hero League? You're best off finding a way to do as much as you can (damage, heals, peels, and macro) in order to carry.
@@killerrayvenx sure, and I learned the hard way that being Jack of all trades, master of none will only make you stay where you are(or climb from bronze/silver)
What he's actually showing is not how Stukov can do good damage, it's how his Kelthuzad is bad with his combos D:
@@thelinuxlich as someone who climbed to Diamond 1 doing exactly that, I'd disagree. You carry by outmacroing through dual soak and camp timings.
Supports do those poorly outside of Rehgar so finding out ways to add damage output to your healing/utility will improve your chances at carrying trash
Aaaand now we can wait for a big nerf for stukov...again
how long do the slows last
the KTZ was really good. it was gross.
Do you always play with no in game sound all the time?
maybe he just doesnt record the sound.
he does use sound in play but not for these videos usually
I normally play without much sound (usually like 5-7%), but I normally leave on like 10-15% for recordings, I must just have forgotten to turn it back on, I will work on it.
You should ALT+Q to start healing on yourself instead of clicking on yourself, much faster
corborg on KTZ is hax
Where is that mount from? Never seen it
Carve it’s last seasons mount reward. His is the master/grand master version.
im pretty sure the slow is permanent guys
That kt is good
i actually never saw this mount i want it ... C.C
In short (from the game play):
1: 1
4: 1
7: 2
10: 2
13: 4
16: 1
20: 3
thanks
What sort of slows are they again?
I cant seem to use him right
we're still waiting for the Murky to GM guide NotParadox :^)
I really wanna boss
This might be just me, but I'd really like it if there were even the slightest hint of game sound. It just feels weird looking at abilities firing off but no audio feedback. Just my 2 cents
Respecting your opinion, but I really like the hotspot on the analysis with no useless (from my pow) audio. :)
Is it really permanently slow because the slow expires :p
Can you do a arthas guide
there is more intresting build
allowing you to have 1k heals every 5 or less seconds
this isnt new, pretty much only the lvl 1 hasnt always been standard and even spine launcher hasnt been an unpopular talent since at least the last time stukov got patched
It looks so easy when u play :wow:
Is the slow temporary or permanent?
can i have the build talent ?
lol as if this wasnt the go-to pick from the start, a ranged auto attack with a 20% slow is just better in any situation.
theres an argument to be made with the increased damage on targets under 30% health with your E but in most cases not taking SpineL. is just a meme and people just dont see that.
I don't think you understand what "free dmg" means
Well you're top damage because you aren't healing up your teammates FeelsBadMan
I topped healing too if you check when I am topping guldan I am also topping anas healing.
@@NotParadox Dude you used your trait probably twice the entire game to burst heal a teammate. You are a support not an assassin. Stukov is best at displacing spell casters and silencing them, and punishing any squishies that get too close, but you should probably try to focus more on healing than damage.
Found the wood league players
@@schoenrlucas this guy acts like by doing damage you can't heal lmao.
Would be great if you could show off builds/tactics against competent opponents.. not something like this
