Gold, but it's very rare.
Plat: people have decent mechanics with their heroes, but can't draft for shit and no map-awareness.
Diamond: Same shit but people somewhat play together as a team.
Master: Somewhat decent players.
Grandmaster: Handfull of good players.

Is building Zul'jin around his Twin Cleave viable, or should you always go for AA bonuses?

>>164802386
I know one or two guys that should be in Diamond but were sent to gold 1 because of this trash matchmaking. They are plat 3 right now and going for diamond.
Same for me. This trash matchmaking put me in plat 5 and I manage to reach diamond 1. For some reason I was sent from Dia 3 to plat 4 for the season 3.
Platinum is annoying as hell, it's hard to reach diamond because of all the trash there is.

Dampen magic if the other team has burst assassins, heavy slam if not
Putrid ground
Tenderizer
Putrid bile is better than gorge because slowing their entire team for combos works better
Mega smash so that slam can hit everyone
Pulverize
Hardened shield

Why are people so fucking shit at

1) Soaking correctly
2) Clearing/pushing correctly
3) Mercing... at all?

Just walk around in the middle of their team and do stupid amounts of aoe damage, right?

He's still pretty shit as a tank, honestly. There's literally nothing you can do to stop a Kerrigan from fucking your Valla, Morales or Jaina.

>reliably hit hooks on killable targets
>have follow-up cc

That's about all he's good for. Seems like he's still a beefcake aoe bruiser.

>>164804023

Yeah, and people in Platinum and Diamond still randomly push waves, advance forward in an open lane with no nearby structures only to get ganked.

>sry i was soaking

Because apparently "freezing" and "not pushing the wave" are advanced fucking tactics in this game.

>>164804023

>There's literally nothing you can do to stop a Kerrigan from fucking your Valla, Morales or Jaina.

The slows from bile and slam causes idiots who blindly jump your carries to have no back up. The slows stack meaning you can root half an enemy team and force then to focus you or try and walk through literal shit while your team can focus down whoever tried to jump ahead

Anything above gold. The matchmaking is completely broken so good and bad players are spread all over the place and there is only so much you can carry as one player out of five

>all my quests for the past week have literally been "play as a warrior hero"

what did blizz mean by this

>>164805575

I wouldn't get your hopes up.

At least they're pumping out somewhat fresh new Heroes every few weeks. That's nice.

>>164805941

Funny, I've gotten either the 600 or 800 quest almost every day on my accounts.

>>164805197
Because a lot of the heroes can't do mercs solo so people won't even try it when they play a hero that can. Also, nobody ever comes to help you even if you type it in chat and ping the merc camp

>if lanes are pushed do a camp instead
>if all lanes are pushed & camps done prepare yourself for the objective
>if everything is done and objective won't appear before a long time, it means you got an extra talent and should gank / push


I have played on the account of a friend, and in silver / gold, the main problem is that people don't understand the soaking, and it's pretty hard to convince them that you shouldn't contest an objective and leave their team curse you to not feed more and catch up the xp, that you shouldn't fight 4v5, etc.

The worse is in the cursed hollow. Your team curse them, instead of pushing they want to do the boss. That's basically not using the curse and letting the enemies come back.

I probably forget one or two things, then there are map specific strategies

>>164806008
>At least they're pumping out somewhat fresh new Heroes every few weeks.
yeah but as a huge diablo fan I was disappointed by this year. 3 diablo heroes isn't much, and I think no one cared about auriel, even if she can be good and useful in game. Same goes for Zarya. I would have prefered anyone else from overwatch.

>>164806235

It's less that it kills players and more that it kills their means to push.

>>164806557
>silver and gold not soaking

Yeah, the people down there are, like, Bronze V players. They practically kill themselves.

>>164806820

Yeah, I don't even play Diablo but would like to see more Heroes from that universe.

Taz'dingo needs to be able to be used while stunned. Shit is too easy to deal with.

Dehaka: Good or Bad?

>>164809523
Shit, he would've faded into obscurity long ago hadn't it been for his meme global.

>>164809523
After playing both him and Stiches alot, I will say he played liks a better Stiches and definitely a better playmaker. However being a "better" stiches isn't saying much, as he can easily be ignored in the same manner unless he does spin2win build.

The level 20 nerf on his global travel also made him shittier for his supposive global presence.

Chromie is shit in this brawl

Taz'dingo doesn't work against anyone of competence, and Guillotine needs a damage buff and maybe a shorter landing time. Even with the level 1 ability power talent, it still can't fucking finish people off. It's ridiculous. I keep regretting taking Guillotine, but then when I take Taz'dingo I just feel like I don't get to even do anything but just run SOMETIMES, assuming someone didn't save a long ranged ability for when I come out of it.

Zul'jin is aweosme, I just... I honestly think his ults suck ass.

Yeah, pretty much.

Taz'dingo: lol dude just stun him or walk away or blind lol ALTERNATIVELY lol dude just stun him and burst him itll be like he doesnt even have an ult

Guillotine: dude just like get healed lol

Because for real, by the time you're low and ready to throw out a heft ass Guillotine, the fight is pretty much over and your team got fucked, or you won the fight and you're just finishing someone off with it. Getting low to throw a Guillotine at the start of the fight is fine, but they'll just lol get healed, and now you're also low at the beginning of a fight, which more often than not is a big no-no.

Monsters?
They usually refer to things as minions or mercenaries, what is the monster category?

>>164817369

WoW has sold about 14 million.

The WoW expansions sold better than Diablo III's, but barely, and it outsold Pandaria.

So I have had this game for ages, but only started playing it like the night before that Genji skin promotion thing finished. The menus were all glitchy as fuck and it kept readying and unreadying us when we got a team together but other than that it was pretty good. But now that I go to play on my own, even in AI teamates and AI opponents, it just sits there saying something about waiting for the game mode to download and the ready button is gone. Then if by some miracle the ready button DOES appear, after I hit it it still looks for a game even when everyone but me is meant to be AI and then nothing happens and I can't even cancel it. Tried google but couldn't really find anything. Does anyone here know what the flaming fuck is going on? I did a repair on it and that came back fine so I'm out of ideas.

Actually, it has more to do with the models being crappy. You can't really rig them properly without breaking them.

I haven't played WoW.

What is the staple WoW rogue playstyle? Can we predict Valeera's kit from the fact that she'll most likely be a WoW rogue stand-in in style of Varian being WoW warrior? Something something combo points, something poisons, dunno.

Assassination Rogue, right?

We might see a whole second set of Q, W and E abilities if they give her a "Stealth" on her D.

>Garrote, a single-target silence coming out of stealth
>Cheap Shot, a single-target stun coming out of stealth
>Sap, an incapacitate that breaks on damage but doesn't cause you to drop out of stealth
>Distract, cause nearby enemies to immediately face specified location

I hope they do, but I doubt it. The above are just the classic rogue stealth tools.

>Stab move, generate combo points
>Harder stab move to consume combo points to deal damage
>Kidney shoot move to consume points to stun target

I don't know if they'll do combo points AND stealth, though. Or either, lmao.

>>164836073

Eh? What's up?

>>164836109
Wait, they're removed the bland shit that was combat rogue and replaced it with a sabre and pistol swashbuckler? I might have to try it.

>>164836523

Yeah. Revealing Strike is now Pistol Shot, and Kidney shot is now a ranged "Between the eyes".

Something something pirate fantasy.

We even have a grappling hook that's like Heroic Leap except it can (sometimes) go up walls.

>>164836109
>>164836606
Pirate captain Greybeard skin when?

>>164836606
Absolute best ability they added to the game was Roll The Bones.

It's the centerpiece of the Outlaw Rogue rotation, where you roll these dice and get a random (Out of like 6 possibilities, I think it's 6) buff(s). And if you roll all 6 buffs, you're overpowered as FUCK.


Fucking love Outlaw Rogue. Edwin VanCleef when?

Anyone wanna play? I'm grandmaster

I envision Valeera as a "what if Lunara was a Zeratul?" ability kit.

Strong single target poison (as opposed to Lunara's idea of spreading the damage on as many enemies as possible) that somehow stacks during fight (combo points?), some CC - also based on combo points, dancing around the focused enemy stabbing him in the back or other weak spots (think LoL Fiora) and maybe some activatable stealth a'la Samuro.

I love the sound effect and the graphic. The sound especially though, it's incredibly satisfying to hear, and I enjoy having to keep rolling dice until I get what I want, that added flavor for the spec made it for me.

He does need a rework.
The only thing I'd really insist on would Devotion Aura at level 16 that reduces the damage allies take by 15%. It would be perfectly fine since Tyrande has her Trueshot Aura.
Hell, you could run Uther+Tyrande for 15% damage output and 15% damage synergy.
>He needs a visual one too. He's got the blizzard fat midget-itis.

I just tested it and I guess I'm just overestimating how far they can go, or overestimating how far away my mouse is when I cast it. They can cast as far as range says.

During a fight I just swung my mouse to as far away as possible, cast portal, and it showed up like 2 feet away. Maybe I just cast too fast or something.

Speccing all into Twin Cleave is so fucking fun, and it's satisfying to hear those things cut through the air.

If you are using wifi, get cable internet. Also try to dont quit the Battle.net client while playing. You can also try to change the game to run in 32 bit version.

i hope valeera talents will be mostly poisons/combo abilities that you select and assign to 1-2-3 and so on

also shadow dance ulti would be pretty cool

(cloak doesn't break)

I wonder if they ever add Hearthstone-exclusive characters (i.e. Reno Jackson, Rafaam) if Blizzard would bother categorizing them as Hearthstone characters or if they'd bundle them into Warcraft characters.
I'm assuming the latter, but you never know with Blizzard "Varian is Multiclass but Kharazim is not" Entertainment.

I'm hoping for:

Trait: Stealth
Q: Mutilate / Ambush when used from Stealth
W: Kidney Shot / Cheap Shot when used from Stealth
E: Envenom / Crimson Vial when used from Stealth

Then you change what poison you want to apply to your weapon by using 1-3 for Deadly, Mind-numbing or Leeching, and Envenom has a different finishing effect depending on your poison of choice.

People are retards.

I was playing ETC last night, and after feeding 3 times in the first few minutes trying to save my retard teammates on Eternal Battlefield, I decided to stop and just solo soak on a separate lane until I had ult because I can't do shit when Lt. Morales keeps healing the Zul'Jin and Valla and nobody bothers to help me stop any of the three from plinking the towers or team.

Pings and bitching all game about how I'm the reason we lost when our Anub'arak didn't land a single stun all game and our Falstad was so tunnel visioned on tower diving to fail to kill a Zarya, he let three 1 HP enemy heroes walk off long enough to reach their Morales who respawned and was walking back.

I'm the only one who push both lanes to the enemy core as fucking ETC while the enemy team fucked around the immortals all game because they were just as bad. We lost because teammate decided to gg push 3v5 without me or our healer and wiped at their core. Our core went 100-0 before they respawned. "it can't be helped, sometimes you get bad games cuz of etc like that.
I'm still mad.

Hello guys, I've been out of the game for quite a few months (just before samuro's release) and I saw a pretty weird thing on Hotslogs.

There was no trace of Cho or Gall, but they are still in the game. Why? Are they reworking them?

>>164850308
Because they don't make their own games anymore. Everything with dota 2 is made by some random studio and they use whatever fan content that wins polls

>d.va

For real waifus we need Ysera, Azshara and Cyadea.

GTFO grandpa
I love SC2 characters, I remember playing Tychus and Raynor on a mission when I was a child.

>>164853706
We're not going to get any tanks or supports for at least three more months. Especially not a gimmicky one like D.Va
It's all because of "The Armor Change"; they're rebalancing whole core of tanks-supports balance and they just now started with Arthas and Anub. So they won't release more until they are finished with existing ones.

What kind of monster says that about Hana?

>>164854132
It wouldn't surprise me if they already had that mind before they started designing new tanks.
It'ss gonna be about 2 months before the hero after Valeera gets released, so I'm sure it will be fine

>thrall dying more often than me
>still complaining about me throwing
Shit man, just walk away from the computer

>>164841860
Wait what leak. Whos the next hero?

Well shit didn't think of that... makes a lot of sense

>>164855335

Guy leaked Varian, Rag, Zul'jin, Valeera and a bunch of other stuff 2 days before Blizzcon.
Literally everything gets released exactly in order guy wrote, next think should be Valeera
Yesterday someone catches Blizz putting a "Valeera screenshots" folder in their media press kit
Valeera confirmed next hero!
I hope you never reproduce those idiot genes of yours.

Valeera is going to be the first Hearthstone rep in Hots, with her abilities and talents based around rogue cards and more popular normal cards

you heard it here first

>>164858345
>that second image
You people honestly believe that shit?

>>164858414
Or, you know, WoW rogue abilities, like poisons, eviscerate, maybe ambush, vanish, etc.

Still no swirly ball, though.

>>164842793

Zul'jin is actually balanced on release, it's not a surprise people aren't flocking to him.

did they actually get rid of the central US server too? Playing with a native 120 ping that randomly spikes to 400 is really fucking fun

>>164860664
That sounds normal for their Ohio servers.

Why doesnt Valeera wear pants?

>>164863118
Because she looks better without them
