Looking at the stats today, almost a day later, they look like the following :

<!-- BODY,DIV,TABLE,THEAD,TBODY,TFOOT,TR,TH,TD,P { font-family:"Arial"; font-size:x-small } -->

QoT has already dropped a percentage point on the overall stats (based on how many players have used her in one day), guessing the probability of seeing one in a game would be under 20%, no time to work it all out.

The interesting point of this thread is that it clearly shows that QoT needs some love. Also, worth looking at the win percentage, it is lower than the other DGs not to the same margins of how she is played, but it looks like she is the weakest (at least perceived) DG.

Dear Allfather, I've found our problem.

Edit: What function of the QoT's slot probability have you been using to find her game probability? I'm curious myself.

the bolded text is what i do just because she DOES suk in all other areas. and coz those 2 r her only "somewhat" effective skills  means that QoT = shit, you cant ignore the fact that she has so many flaws atm.

so i guess then, we all agree that she needs to be changed.

well then y do ppl always try to defend her as soon as someone says shes underpowered?

I play her regurly, usually as  a taunt to the enemy team=D. Indeed she is playable and even quite good in the semi-competive scene. In a real premade vs premade with good players taking qot is like writing your own death warrant.

She is a very complex character and some of her skills are actually pretty good. However due to forswitching its very hard to actually use them effectively. To do any damage you need to be in open form, but being in open form is like going melee with a regulus, its pretty much instant death against an able team. On top of her really bad stats, bad passive effects, she also needs heaps of mana. Being in closed form gives you 50% mana regen, but even with that and 3 mana items(favor, vlemish, plenor) I run out of mana more than enough. For the record, you have around 6k mana and 55 mana per sec with the those items(and unbreakable). 

I'd just like to point out the massive statistics fail in this thread.  Going simply by the only calculation that made sense, a QoT has a 7.02% chance of taking any given slot.  So in a 3v3 game, there is a 92.98% chance that the slot will NOT be filled with a QoT.  So  there is a 92.98^6 = 64.61% chance that any given game will have no QoT.  This gives you a 35.38% chance of having a QoT, or about 1 in 3 games.

Edit: With the 6.12% chance of QoT for any one slot, it's a 31.54% chance of a QoT per any game.

Frogboy stated that a request has been sent to GPG to buff QoT but I do not believe that this buff will arrive soon.

Whereas Stardock work really hard to make things better (connections, stats overlay), I fear that GPG management has lost most of its interest in improving Demigod. Which is the right decision from an economic point of view, but it will also taint my opinion of GPG quite a lot. Sorian, you're of course not the one to blame!

I've given up playing QoT.

When I did, I'd just go mana/speed and use shield/thorns/other thorns with cloak of night.  Later i tried experimenting with a morale shamblerless build that only took level 1 shield since it doesn't scale well... probably because QoT was designed during a coffee break right before launch and no one felt like coming up with cool effects like the ones oak and sedna enjoy when they put points into shield and heal.  It was good sometimes but ultimately it was even more late game sucky that the standard I was using before.  Tried using mulch builds which were kind of effective but sometimes caused me to fall asleep.

I've very rarely played with or against QoTs... sorry, can't really give you a specific number cause it hardly happens.  Will tell you this... the only Queens who didn't contribute to their teams losing in recent memory were Sho333 who uses the thorns shield mo thorns amulet of teleporting build and helped beat a decent team I was on... and someone else i can't remember...  He used a build similar to yours but just without Cloak of Night and held off my Obscenitor Renewal Style Rook from taking down the towers near Catas gold flag... he was a solid player with a solid build but it didn't do him much good since I was creeping and controlling the flag... his team kinda sucked though.  Oh, and PJ__ was really good but he pretty much just does what I think you do:  Mulch/Entourage/Shield Cloak of Night and a whole lotta mana.

So thats the effective styles I've seen... as far as how often I play with or against a QoT all I can say is very rarely and even when someone picks her, he's usually told to change by his allies.

Thundercles played Queen for months.

Months.

Every game I've played with or against him, he was queen (until he got pissed at an oak and tried to play as an oak. I met him again shortly after this time). He's not a bad queen, rather, he's afflicated with getting poor teammates and a Queen needs good teammates, like a Rook. So, yeah, Thunder has tried pretty much everything with Queen. He's explored and ventured quite a bit

no he doesn't

(until you get 100+ games most good players will kick you so you can't have played queen against good players)

is this a fact? ... or just you making an assumption?
