idk, bennadict can carry pretty decent due to how OP he is. Just hit them with hawkeye and three rockets later you’ve got a kill. he’ll start doing about 1.8k damage in >2 seconds later in the game, it’s ridiculous.
Benedict’s weakness is the large amounts of CC available to the melee cast. Landing hawkeye won’t matter much when you are in pull/knockup/stun/slow range. You have to pick your targets very wisely and know who has what on cooldown.

I used to main phoebe a very long time ago. This dates back to the closed test. It didn’t take me long once incursion came out to realize that melee was at a serious disadvantage and that AOE was god.
The irony is that back when the closed test was out, people complained the entire time that melee was way overpowered
haha, @hockeyswede31 is sandbagging right now. There is a very subtle “anymore” on the end of his comment. This man and his team were those you would hear tales of legend… But alas, everyone’s legendary gear pushed us away… No draft pushed us away… Now we, and battleborn wit us, are but a whisper of days of old that almost came, but never were…
No meta can defeat the #MeleeMeta
Sure. As long as you aren’t counting Rath, Phoebe, Deande, Attikus, Kelvin, Galilea, and probably a few others that I’m too tired to remember right now. :^)
Edit: Boldur.
Second edit: Cade is the better twin. :^)

It was in choas rumble vs 5 Goldurs 
3 boldurs would be enough to stunlock and kill him over and over, if they did loose with 5, they were morons
Maybe… but its a feat in itself. Plus he also used 3 - 200 HP gear which handicapped him by -600 HP
People say it was because of matchmaking but the True reason is because @Dr_H0H0 1v1-ed them all and the experience made them quit the game 
Alas, that’s enough story telling. I don’t want the thread to be closed or get in trouble of any kind.
sorry but this seriously doesn’t make him “The best Melee on PC”, maybe he’s a good melee, but c’mon, titleing himself like this? because others failed? sorry, you lost me there…

Where’s the third edit saying I’m a better Rath? 
I’d beg to differ on the best on pc comment. I imagine you haven’t played everyone, I don’t think we ever crossed paths. I’m not saying I’m better BTW. Are you US?
On subject I find deande to be superb with lifesteal, attack speed and AoE dash with lifesteal. She has amazing sustain and a great deande is a real pain. Atticus takes some getting going but by rank 7 you can ruin anyone. Boldur is currently really strong, and skill damage is doing some nasty things. Gal also has the 1 button no aim pull /silence making her super strong.
I’d agree though that ranged meta is the rage, every tryhard is a similar composition and it’s rare to see Rath/Phoebe/Kelvin/Atty. I love Kelvin but against tryhards it’s so hard to do anything as you melt insanely fast vs Bene/Ernest/WF /Marquis /Toby. Atty has the same issue. Massive characters could do with inate DR to compensate how easy they are to hit.

We are rare. 
I mean I love using Atty and Kelvin but I know they are not the best. I also think that by taking these guys you hinder the team more than if you picked Bene for damage or Boldur to tank.
Well unlike most people the comp PC players play 10 mans every night when we have enough players on and shuffle the teams with some of the best players. We do this to stay out of pubs since stomping isn’t fun for us and isn’t fun for the other team. I have played every single person left on PC aside from a few dozen EU players who aren’t on when I’m playing.
Within our comp group I’m the most well rounded melee player and play every single one at a high competitive level. [quote=“ZombiePizzaMan, post:26, topic:1550349”]
Rath, Phoebe, Deande, Attikus, Kelvin, Galilea,

Ignore Zombie’s salt but he’s saying I’m not the best with any of those characters but I can play all of them extremely well. @RedX plays Phoebe better then me but I think we’re the same when it comes to Gali or neck and neck with Deande (He’s probably better). @ZombiePizzaMan plays Rath better then me but I’m better at basically every other melee (Fight me Pizza ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ) and the list goes on but I think you get it. It’s much easier to judge when the player base is in the triple digits rather then say the thousands.
