>HotS makes better overwatch skins than overwatch

>>378702638
Who cares, all three are cancer

It's almost like people are getting bored of farming minions for 20 minutes before having 1 team fight to end the game

Mobas need to be more about fighting and not boring last hitting and playing safe

is that a evangelion skin?

With Blizzard's name recognition and appeal to the lowest common denominator by making it as simple and braindead as possible, it can't be stopped.

ASSFAGGOTS are a cancer on gaming.

>>378702638
Played it for 2 weeks. Had fun, but wouldn't play it any more. The reason being that the game just devolves into who can spam more spells and more damage. There were a couple of interesting gimmics and mechanics that I like but overall it's shit.

Not to mention, Blizzard has no idea how to design a character. For example Butcher: A big fat arse and he deals more damage than your team combined at some point. Valve might have a problem maintaining aesthetics, but blizzard has a problem in creating them.

>>378704021

No other moba has abathur or cho gall or probius or generally anything close to most of the unique heros. the best part is nobody can refute it except to say le blizz shill. Feels good man.

Is it really getting that relevant? Former Diamond 3 Smite player and im completely tired of that fuckshit game. I've tried moving to LoL since it's the game most of my friends play but it's complete dog shit too, i only play because i have a very cute friend and i like to play with him.

>>378706452
It's free give it a go

>>378706452
I'll guess anything is better than Smite, so i think you should at least try it.

>>378703046
I have 3700 games played on LoL
400 hours on Dota 2

And he's right, farming minions for 20 minutes is just boring

Having never watched a single episode of Evangelion, I agree. At least better than Rei. I don't know if there's a third option.

All your complaints are that of a bronze tier shitter.

git gud

>>378706452

It already beat Smite (specially after 2.0) by even triple the audience on twitch. Go ahead, is a great time to start anon. Bring your cute friend too, the community will make him feel welcome.

I played for about 15 hours and found it incredibly boring and unrewarding, also the characters are worse than in lol/dota.

Well my game is better because it doesn't have WC3 limitations or gold grinding, and it has maps that change how the game is played.

I like the game very much but the better I get at it the more boring it becomes. This is because of how the game is supposed to be played. 5 man deathballs vs 5 man deathballs with 3 kills inbetween for 15 minutes isn't that fun.

>>378708126

As someone who isn't a 3rd world huehue that actually has the choice to play something besides f2p mobas HoTS is easily the only bearable moba out there. Shorter matches are key, sure if you lose there is some steamrolling but at least your not sitting there for half an hour waiting to lose when the match was already decided long ago.

Also I'd take streamlined builds to micromanaging a bunch of fucking items any day, but then again out of all the "esport" videogame genres out there mobas are the last fucking thing I'd want to sink my life into.

>>378708471

For 10-15 minutes every hero on the team farms gold either from lane or jungle minions, occasionally trying to kill an enemy player if they get the chance

At 20 minutes the game is basically decided unless the other team has a major fuckup that allows the losing team to make a comeback.

Which game am I describing? League of Legends or Dota2?

I played all 3 (not taking into account HoN, Demigod, the thing made by EA etc) for around 4-5k hours combined and they're all fine. It all depends on what you want. That said I'd rather watch professional matches from DoTA than LoL or HotS.

I haven't had any interest in LoL for years now and I really don't see that ever changing so long as the game refuses to change. One map, 40+ min games, and last hitting were always 3 of my top complaints about LoL, and hots solves all of them. Doesn't matter to me if people think those things are what makes a moba great, I don't like them and I'm not gonna waste my time playing a game like that.

You're right, at 20 minutes in DOTA2 the game is so decided that any attempt at a comeback is met with the entire losing team dying again.

>>378709108

But I answered your question. You thought it would be clever. Your insistence reveals your simplicity though.

>>378702638

Do you get paid to shill for Blizzard or do you do it for free?

>>378702824
You are simply describing LoL and this is a huge reason why Dota 2 is much better than it. Dota being played properly is much more fast paced and dynamic than league. A lot of lineups will only have 1 or 2 at MOST ricing farmer carries. Hots has no pve really while dota 2 has some for people who like that so I still consider it much more fun. Sometimes I wanna hit creeps and other times I wanna make stuff happen on the map

I like the character in blizzard that has a key to mash for healing and a key to mash that is the same as the healing except it damages enemies. really tactically involved gameplay.

Just because you don't have to memorise every fucking item and ever fucking hero doesn't mean it's dumbed down. Low entry level sure, but pretty damn high skill ceiling.

>Why, what's wrong with not liking farming?
Nothing
There's nothing wrong with liking farming either

You're not getting shit for not liking farming, you're getting shit for screaming and crying that your opinion is objective fact
This genre is largely an economy and resource control/denial game, and HotS is the black sheep for not having it

None of the newer HotS skins are subtle. The Samuro skin with the rings and eyes is clearly making fun of Mister Yi

But that's not true? He's effortless to assassinate, every other hero outclasses him, Probius is better at everything and still shit (but somehow has a high winrate according to hotslogs)

>but somehow has a high winrate according to hotslogs
i met good probius players
they were winning the fucking game alone

Guinsoo was contacted by the dark lords and given a purpose on this planet: To destroy all video games and use them as a vector to spread mental poison.

>>378727042
Any idea how? Are there special spots you're supposed to place your pylons so they don't die?

I end up putting them in the backline, in bushes, etc but they still get sniped

>>378715375
Just watch Gundam; it's actually good. Eva aped it up and down.

>>378727318
Punish with black holes. I carry teams with probius on a regular. He's godly. Except they nerfed him today so we'll see.

Sort of want to try it now.

You need a friend to explain what the fuck is going on, and you need to understand that the game is 20% personal skill 80% coordination, teamwork, strategy, planning, and following the meta

I'd post an reaction image but I'm at work right now.

Did they add Malthael yet
I will play it when they add him

A tauren hero when ETC is cool,but doesn't count
Proper druid character when
The other prime evils when

Oh well.

>proper
I'd rather have a proper shaman based around totems.

This x 1000.

Played tons of the original dota at the time. Could not stand the 'deny' so when it came out I switched to LoL.
I still hated farming, so much I ended up playing almost always jungler or support. Or ARAM. With Hots 2.0, i switched to Hots, and it'sso much better.
