>>
>>375737331
If you are ever AFK as Abathur you are a bad Abathur, you should always be watching all the lanes and planting mines soaking xp when a lane is empty and pushing the enemies out of the lane if your lane is struggling. Plus if you care about getting MVP he is the easiest one to do it on. (Which is more satisfying when the randoms call you shit for picking him)
>>
>>375737035
I haven't played abathur but I can agree he's a pretty cool guy. a really good abby is fun to have around.

Counter strike won't save him. Especially if you picked SIxth sense.

>>375737521

>>
>>375737521
Charge is pretty ok lategame

Last Laugh is countered by so many things it's rarely worth picking

Hasty Bargain is niche
>>
>>375737912

You build Alarak for spikes of damage with Discord Strike, with telekinesis traits.
And you take The Last Laugh so he can actually escape. As you should. Counter Strike a shit on most situations and has no viable long term use if your enemy has any brain whatsoever.

>>375738019
>last laugh countered by so many things

Unless there's a Genji that can afford diving half accross the map for you or a Tyrande with 100% accuracy on her birds, I don't see how you get countered when picking it unless the person is terrible at timing and exploiting the territory.
>>
>>375737521
>thinking Illidan can do jack shit to any Alarak in any build ever
Your main source of damage requires you to stay still for half of second.
And you try to land it against hero with 2 dash abilities on low cd.

>MVP on Aba
>Counts as and actual MVP

>>375738840
Only since closed beta.
Main both heroes. Got placed in plat 2 last season.
>>
>>375739086

Odd. Otherwise you'd know it's extremely easy to land discord strike on Illidan as all of the motions that require him to actually survive auto-attacks from Alarak have to be done automatically as their cooldowns tick, otherwise he doesn't have enough damage or health to survive him and the lightning surge HP. If you are unable to land a discord strike with the hilariously obvious patterns any Illidan has to stick to, you are terrible at playing the hero, which at least should mean you take the "giant discord strike for retarded people that can't aim" trait build, which should solve any and all issues in landing anything on any hero, ever. And a single discord strike is enough for Illidan to have no health to hold himself with.
>>
>>375738813
You do realise that you only make MVP if you actually contribute to the game right? It's a rare occasion for me to not be top damage or siege damage depending on which ult you use.

this game is really fucking weird

I don't understand it or like it
>>
>>375739387
You understand that discord strike is easy to predict too, and you have enough time to dive over Alarak or sweep to the side. You just have to train a little.
And after 13th level you can just pop evasion and laugh at damage.
Only way to win as Alarak is to harass Illidan with lightnings and don't let him close, because he has much more sustain in both damage and healing, so any prolonged exchange would not be to your benefit.

>>375739496
>It's a rare occasion for me to not be top damage or siege damage depending on which ult you use.
It is easy to amount both if you do not care about your safety.

She's been nerfed a few times and more heroes have been added to the game with hard CC/Silences. PLUS with Genji being a basic version of her in most aspects she's next to useless now, which is fine because I fucking despised her when she first came out.

Where the fuck are you? Smack dab in the middle of their team? Sit back and heal/poke, and buff the guys taking the most damage or need a speed boost. Poly whoever wants to fucking jump into the middle of your team or see if you can get close to their mid/backline

>get shat on by every single teamfight
Read above.

>relies on the enemies to be stupid (ults/position)
What the fuck does that even mean? Character relies on the enemies to be stupid enough to get hit by a point and click polymorph or stand in the center of a not that important Q?

>does mediocre dmg
More damage than Morales. Name one support that has 1 damage ability and manages to do substantial dps.

>has no escape
Alright stopped reading there. Good thing you saved this one for the end, because the GLOBAL TELEPORT doesnt break on damage, let alone the medium range blink-to-an-ally if you're actually caught out. You DO have a backline to jump to, don't you?

Absolutely true about Butcher considering his only gap closer is his charge which is mainly only good to isolate people that can't position themselves worth shit on top of having no means to escape unlike other similar heroes.

Lamb to the slaughter is great but it doesn't outweigh the downsides of the hero.

OW is a moba with one lane and no NPCs. You don't even half to aim the guns, as long as your cross hair is within one square mile of the target- you will land a hit. "Favor the shooter' and all that

Game is Battleborn with slightly less moba influence. But its still unquestionably a moba

I don't play OW I play HotS which is an ASSFAGGOTS but you're either a trolling idiot or an actual idiot if you think OW is a MOBA. A MOBA by definition needs to have either lanes, towers, minions, bases, or a combination of those. OW has literally none of them. If having powers on cooldowns means the game is a MOBA then Skyrim and Witcher 3 are both MOBAs.

he was literally the heart of LOTV. Alarak should get his own game or his own mission pack. Literally the best quotes, best design, best boi.

Hes an edge lord that didn't ask to be edgy and its literally everyones fault except his own. He's like a protoss embodiment of any popular games community but only the good parts.

it does more damage than the charge ult, has no windup time, and gives you an extra second of life, which means an extra second for your abilities to cool down.

and while last laugh is under-picked, it's not that great. best-case scenario, you escape with ONE(1) hit point and are about as useful as a dead leoric for like 30 seconds while you hearth away, wait to heal, and then run all the way back to the teamfight. worst-case, you just freakin' die anyway becuase you're at 1 hp.

It's funny, since I've played actual MOBAs before playing HotS for dva's skin myself and 4 friends (who had never played HotS before) playing against real players is easier than against the bots.

By game 4 out of 10 we were stomping over teams of level 70 players. (What do levels in HotS mean anyway?) I'm assuming level 70 means they've at least been playing for a decent while.

We only lost 1 game out of 10 on our way to getting dva's skin, and that's because two players on our team were having ridiculous ping issues.

What levels mean changed with the 2.0 patch. Now its the total combined levels that you've earned on characters. Someone who's level 70 could either have 7 level 10 heroes or like 35 characters only at level 2 aka playing like half the roster for one game each.

Only if their level is extremely high is it any kind of indicator anymore.

Honestly, lack of all chat makes the game more game focused and less of a social garbage fire like Dota 2 turns into. I get really sick of people saying "gg end pls" and either continue to play not letting us end, or just going into complete keyboard warrior mode and bitching non-stop.

I'll say this, at least Blizzard embraces the fact HOTS is a super casual ASSFAGGOT and makes it as such. They don't twiddle their thumbs on "depth" and just focus on it being a pick and play type of game in the genre compared to LoL where Riot continue to lie to themselves that LoL has any depth and shit whatsoever esp with their whole "burden of knowledge" bullshit.

In the end, it's a nice change of pace to play after dealing with the detailed nuances in Dota2 for a while. Like when I want to play a game of ASSFAGGOTS but don't want to worry about pulling ,warding, stacking, rosh, item builds, etc. HotS is a good distraction, other than that, back to Dota2 hell whenever I want to.

>>375775245
The thing that impresses me with hots is a lot of it's design. Every hero having a choice of ults, the incredibly varied and interesting hero design, etc.

Meanwhile every time Riot releases a new hero it's got a 3 hit passive, % health damage, or one of their other design memes.

You have to play around her Critical Mass passive. Getting the last hit with your skills will reset all her cooldowns which can lead to chaining skills.

She's ridiculously powerful.

I legitimately think HotS is the best game that Blizzard has pumped out. It feels so much like D2 PvP--I cant get enough.

I've played thousands of hours of DotA and if it weren't for the community I'd still be playing it. Peruvians made me a racist. I cannot stand it.

They're not though. If you have eyes you can see them moving while cloaked.

The only game that has a completely invisible hero is Overwatch. :^)

I usually go:

Astral Presence
Orb
Orb (teleport of theres a valeera)
Disintegrate

Mirror Ball (again, teleport if they have valeera)
either flux or archon depending on the state of game. archon does a ton of siege damage if needed

Look nigger, I like the game and it's gotten a lot better over the last year.

I played it at launch, and yes, it was hot fucking garbage back then. It had serious balance issues, the hero pool was tiny and the maps fucking sucked. It also kind of ran like shit.

But they've come a long way since then. 2.0 isn't really an overhaul of the game, either, other than to add Overwatch tier carrot on a stick to get people to play it. It's just that the game has now had more than a year of patches and support and is now worth playing. 2.0 is more akin to a marketing gimmick, like them saying "hey guys, remember Heroes of the Storm? It's good now!"

And it is good now. Far from perfect and I wish they would change the map rotation sooner, but good.
>>
>>375781401
>It feels so much like D2 PvP--I cant get enough.
This was my first impression of the game, that we finally got D3 pvp in a whole different game.

I kind of wish character building was better, like being able to choose abilities or something. I feel like Diablo's current abilities don't really reflect the lord of terror very well.

2.0, the nexus challenge, everything these past few weeks have been about attracting new players. Can you really not think why they reduced the pool of maps?

Beyond making it less confusing and easing players into what HotS has to offer they also removed all the maps that have a lot of negative reception. Garden, mines, the pirate one, etc.

>>375787418
Dragon Shire is removed because the objective has an active component that you can fuck up. It's really easy for new players to completely waste the Dragon.

The majority of the maps we have are those, "Go here and do a thing to directly damage their core." Those are super player friendly, regardless of how much veteran players bitch about it.

And yet, when I first started playing this game I had absolutely no trouble on Dragon Shire, Garden Terror (despite Terror being shit), and the spider one.

Mines is completely straight-forward, and after the update is a great map.
The Spider one is straight-forward, and an alright map.
Warhead Junction is a snowball-y piece of shit, alongside BHB, so it's fine having it excluded.


However, removing over half the fucking maps in the game for 3+ weeks is RIDICULOUS! The one thing HoTS has over DotA and LoL is their abundance of maps that change up the playstyle. Removing them does nothing but make the game look worse.

Everyone is fucking tired of the 6 maps on rotation.

Congrats you are a functioning human.

The majority of new players are subhuman mouth breathing fucking retards. Welcome to multiplayer video games in 2017.

6 maps is a bit overwhelming for new players in this genre. More than that is out of the question. Removing them improves the new player experience by so much.

Also your inability to see anything but your own perspective will be your downfall in life.
