Are you ready to play another 5 games of Heroes of the Storm tomorrow?

I don't play shit games to get skins for other shit games.

>>376221317
HoTS is alright, but it's like pulling teeth trying to get my friends to play the requisite games with me. I'm still trying to get them to finish the first quest for oni genji.

>>376220562
Let's just be honest here: You don't play games. You come here, every day, solely to shitpost and fit in as you have no friends, either virtual or in meatspace.

>>376220505

>>376221432

>>376221265
just go in the game and ask in general chat. That's how i did it and got invites in a second.

i enjoy hots

>>376221265
they don't want to play hots because it's annoying as shit to play hots after playing other mobas
as far as I can tell in every single other moba if you do good, you get stronger
in hots this isn't the case, so individual skill barely matters

this is why it's so liked by shitters & casuals like you

>>376221265

Blizzard has more money than they know what to do with. Cross promoting one of the most valuable gaming properties with some other game in their Rolodex is something any business would do.

Hots is just an advertising platform for them. That's why they spent practically no money advertising it; I only saw a few advertisements on motherboard boxes. Compare that to what they spent advertising Overwatch.

I will.
Not because i want the spray or the icon, but because i can't get next weeks 10 lootboxes if i don't.

>>376222098
you could get 10 lootboxes faster by playing overwatch than playing 10 HotS games

>>376221265
enter nexuschallenge channel and you will find people to play with you

>>376222154
that's a lie

takes like 8 games of overwatch to get a lootbox
5'ish if you're doing the "special gamemodes" but you can only get three of those a week

>>376221858
yeah but typically the game would have to make as much money as their other games to consider keeping it alive right?

>>376222016
i think that's because the game was an actual piece of garbage when it first came out and most people have already decided they aren't going to give it another chance.

>>376222154
No you don't.
5 HOTS games will take you just over an hour. At most you can get 1 lootbox in OW in an hour

>>376220505
This is such a genius move, we couldn't have come up with a better idea to raid a whole game community than this. People throwing are legion and HoTS forums are swarmed with rage. I'm going to enjoy throwing so fucking much, and I don't even care for the skins much.

I played it when it was in beta and I still think its a better MOBA than the other two big ones out there simply because it got rid of a lot of bullshit I hated from it. But like someone else said, its hard for people to throw away the significant amount of time they spent on another game to go play a different one.

im a fan of the core game but it was just too much bullshit for me to deal with back then.

>>376221265
I fucking hate mobas and it was a fucking drag to play hots for the skins. It feels like a realtime board game, I hate it so much. Still gonna play it again for the icon/spray tho.

>>376223237
Illidan and KT weren't nearly as bad as Tracer was. Those two could be dealt with -- Illidan got fucked hard by piano Uther's 6s or so stun rotation + literally any other assassin.

Tracer, on the other hand, had literally no counter. She could escape any CC effect, could outshoot Raynor while both of them were standing still, could pop tower shots every 2 or 3s and her ultimate did triple damage on release because why not.

I want to say the MMR thing was fixed, at least for non-Hero league, come beta and I personally didn't experience any significant lag or have it effect but maybe 1 out of 20 games.

You'll have to remind me, though: What was wrong with Blackheart's Bay?

>>376222552
The best part is that the people in the forums are complete morons. During the first Genji challenge, they cried that all the new players were only playing AI. Blizzard changed it and now they're complaining that players are throwing in QM. Now they want Blizzard to make it 5 wins which is only going to make it worse. They never learn.

Just group up with randos in the general chat, you're bound to get an invite and start rolling along, or you can pick up people looking for a group yourself.

Keep in mind that if you haven't started playing until now, the rewards from the previous nexus weeks don't expire, so you'll still have to do 5 games each for Genji and D.Va's skin before you can start working on the sprays.

>>376220505
They said they'd put the costume, along with Oni Genji, in normal boxes at some point. I hope they don't wait too fucking long, because this is the best D.va costume and i ain't playing this just to fucking get it.

>Illidan and KT weren't nearly as bad as Tracer was.
true, release tracer was very broken. illidan kind of went on and off from being useless to broken, not like KT or ming who were just consistently bullshit for years. but if i remember right, the problem was that he was able to sweep any camp at level 7 and win or escape any realistic 1v1 because his meta ult was much better than it is now. couple that with an aba hat or a tassadar and you have broken shit. blackheart's bay was hated because everyone would just pick illidan or zag and pve for coins without really fighting. samuro was kind of the same way before they tuned him properly. it's not as much of an issue anymore because you don't have those super powerful raider types anymore. someone who was actually high elo and not diamond could probably give you a better explanation though

Tracer is still terrible because all they did were lower her numbers and remove the blink charges on rewind. It doesn't actually do anything about the fact that like 1/3 of the characters can do literally nothing against her but hope they can make it back to their fort before they die.

>>376224912
git gud

>>376224912
Reducing her numbers and fixing her bullshit ultimate 'bug' did fix her though. Characters that build their own little "fuck off zone," like Proby or Hammer shit all over her 1v1 and now Raynor can outshoot her.

She is still terrible, though, and I ban her every game I have the ability to just because she was that fucking awful.

>>376224728
Samuro wasn't a problem because he had a huge singular counter pick that still exists to this day: Auriel. Auriel can nearly and completely shut any damage he does outside of his ultimate down.

Go back to your overshit and stop ruining my game

>>376226861

D.Va and Genji share similar character traits in that they're both confident in their abilities and have a cocky streak in them. She's probably just bummed that he's not into her.

>>376226973

I doubt that. She either feels unattractive or is sad that a guy she likes, apparently, is a giant beta.

My games have deeper mechanics than your games ever will.

>tfw no one to play with to get overwatch rewards

>>376221553
That's far from the largest problem.

It's got the same flaw as Overwatch. It's objective based while having the shittiest playerbase ever. If one member of your team decides not to cap a point you lose the game.

On the up side the games are twenty minutes shorter than other mobas.

>>376220505

I've several friends to play, joke and banter with, so why not?
Hots is great with mates. It's so casual you can do so much shit meanwhile. A better map rotation would be preferable though

im a dota player but I cant be arsed to play it any longer, no energy left. The community is so toxic and full of russians.

HOTS is the same, even worse. But the gameplay is so casual and easy, it doesnt feel like Im wasting energy playing it like I do with dota.

I played it for the nexus challenge 1 but left for the grind and pay to win to get all heroes, but reinstalled now with the 2.0 update and found some new friends in it.

I miss playing Dota and CSGO with friends, everyone who speak english are gone.
