i stopped playing her because she felt stupidly strong, but looks like Blizzard doesn't care, time to wreck faces

Who's the best hero for someone about to start the game for the first time?

Friend gifted me a starter with Jaina, Li Li, Zagara, Sonya and Zeratul.

I think I'll also have Artanis through Starcraft II.

Is the game fun?

>>122019951
speak for yourself scrub. i've been rank 1 for a long time now.

>>122019747
Yeah, you actually got a fair collection now. Artanis isn't in a great spot, but yeah, those other guys will do fine. Have fun. Don't ignore objective.

>>122019747
Li li is really easy to play, Zagara is pretty easy to play. Jaina isn't for starters, she is strong but you have to know how to play her well because she is a fragile ranged assassin, but her abilities are very short ranged and you have to get in close, as well as trying to apply your chill first with frostbolt before using your other abilities.

Zera isn't for starters either because he's more of a roamer rather than a laner.

If you wanted very easy assassins, probably go for Kael'thas or Raynor.

>>122019747

raynor

he has an escape, longest range in the game, a skillshot for beginners that pushes away and can stun, and 2 pretty solid ults that will teach you when/where to use ults

and you can also right click your way to top damage once you're better at the game


so basically play those 5 heroes you have until you can buy raynor, he's cheap

That's not really an escape friend. 5% move speed is barely anything. If you have a bunch of teammates around to have a higher boost % then you don't need it to escape. It just helps with stutter stepping and chasing really

the other changes are fucking retarded though

>>122020993

its 10% you cunt wagon and you get 5% for every ally you hit with it

that being said, if you can't get out of a situation using that talent and your Q you were out of position and are bad

>>122021157
Exactly my point, a noob will be out of position all the time so saying that rev overdrive is an escape is a bit of stretch

>>122021393

by your logic every hero's escape will fail them at a certain point and calling it an escape is a bit of a stretch

raynor gives him a talent that is very escapeesque and a very reliable one at that, so its good to give a new player to practice their positioning

stop backtracking

>HotS players

>Tfw when you solo carry your team as Tyrande

>>122021537
That was your logic I used

>Raynor is good for noobs
>noobs are bad
>if you can't escape you're bad

I agree Raynor is good for noobs but you shouldn't say he has an escape because that implies his positioning isn't important. He's a high value target so his move speed should be used to gain good position and avoid even needing to escape

no you're just trying to put words in my mouth like a faggot and backpedaling because i called you on on being a retard

I said raynor is a good beginner hero because of obvious reasons, including that beginners can practice certain mechanical things, one of them being escapes, which raynor has with an early talent pick up

you are objectively bad if you can't get out of most situations with those 2 abilities on raynor, and thats why I've suggested raynor because its good practice

The new map, eh its pretty spooky and I love the design overall but not being able to rush core after a team wipe is annoying. I guess the comebacks are even easier in this map since its so easy just to sneak a shrine.

>>122026910

The objective and boss is the only way to win the game, having all the forts don't help win the game necessarily. The core has point health instead of percentage because it can't be attacked directly.

Hardly. He had his day of being OP. He's now just a decent pick and nothing more.

>>122034280
Without any damage Zeratul is nothing more than a glorified VPbot and Zagara will do his job 100% better since she has Maw and damage.

>>122034534

Nah Zeratul is much more than a decent pick right now, he can do massive burst damage at zero risk unless he can be locked down from 100 to 0. He gets rewind to double his double blink juke/escape/bungee cord/x marks the spot. Ontop of that, he has a fantastic teamfight ult.

It's about time they tune down his damage a bit so he's more in line with other assassins. Nova next, I hope. For some reason they gave all stealth heroes super high damage.

>>122035914
Barely picked in comp play anymore. You are wrong. You are double wrong when talking about nerfing nova.

>>122035914
Why would tune down Nova?

>>122036030
Do you play comp? To balance a casual game like this around competitive play is retardation

>>122036092
Her decoy build is able to kill all but the tankiest heroes on the spot with absolutely no counter to it other than "hope she fucks up and walks into your line of sight before a teamfight".
Which you may think is a good counter because most novas are shit, but a good nova player using the decoy build has no counters.

Nova is terrible.

Hello bronzie

>>122040804
Hi?

>>122040771
If it makes you feel better all my hero league games have been with rank 1's and i haven't lost any of my 16 placement matches so far

How well is HotS doing compared to DotA? In terms of players, tournament sponsorship etc?

>>122041042
Well.

>>122041042
A lot less players as far as we know, tournaments are growing bigger.

>>122041042
HotS is doing awful.

>>122041001
It does make me feel better because I'm pretty shit and don't even try half the time and apparently have a higher MMR than you

>>122041042

I stopped playing and I got an email from blizzard giving me in-game currency. I assume they need players.

>>122041042
It's blizzard, it's easy to pick up for both new players and extremely veteran players that want something different.

It's not even that, it's just they were all over the fucking place and it was physically and mentally tiring to try and keep up.

Kael starts pinging boss at 14 when everyone on the enemy team is alive, nazeebo runs off to bottom siege. Get webweavers, kerrigan is dead again, diablo and kael run at middle keep, nazeebo runs at top. Diablo is running away from leoric's W for the millionth time while kael is getting instakilled by sonya because blizzard seriously thinks that highest DPS in the game + strong sustain + stoneskin and hardened shield = fair and balanced

like honestly I regretted taking clairvoyance because I had fucking nothing to cleanse because all it did was force the enemy team off doing something that could have just ended the game

What exactly are bonus pts awarded for? I know you get them for a bit after your placement games but I will randomly get them every now and then.

Looking at the ranks of everyone in my last game shows we are all similar rank give or take a few levels so I don't really see it as beating a team much better than you.

You will probably never get the 15 kills to ramp it up all the way it decent games since she is too easy to kill unless you are against murky or vikings but it's define try better than before . But killing someone who takes gp is a priority.

It won't fix nova since she wasn't great even when it was 3% per kill

No chance.

Tychus decided to sit in base after we lost our top keep or run off to die, whichever felt more convenient to him

Nova was all over the fucking place, only getting her arse in gear after dying for the 10th time

We almost had the perfect chance to rush their core and win, but where was Tychus? Taking easy giants. Tychus players just need to be fucking banned honestly, they're on average more of an incoming autoloss than Gazlowe will ever be

Excuse the pisspoor healing numbers, I normally clock up a lot more if theres actually any sort of proper fighting going on, it's just hard to do any sort of healing when people are running off to die miles away. Me and Johanna near our mid fort because we've both just respawned and where are the other three? Fighting 3v5 at turn-in point. Totally idiotic...

I'm not sure if it's because I'm playing Uther that people think I'm some sort of miracle worker who can just pull their arse out of the fire no matter what retarded shit they do - between the Spider Queen game where we had four seperate people all trying to lead the charge in drastically different directions or this one where two of the players could have passed off for griefing if not for Nova actually being able to kill things.

No, you can't 1v1 any other hero and win.

Protip: Li Li is the hero with the highest winrate in QM because she is both piss-easy to play and exploits teams without good coordination (i.e. most teams). Bragging with Lili just makes you look silly.

QM has absolutely zero balance in it even at a base level where you should bare minimum have one support.

And you don't have to pick shit for a meta in HL. Just something that has a remote semblance of playability against the other team.

So, I'm new as fuck, and there is something I'd like to understand:

This kind of screen, is there one stat that tells you that you did "well", or is it really all based on the impact when it comes to objectives and ONLY that?

I mean, in LoL (the other experience I have), CS/death is a very good benchmark no matter what.

Just trying to understand what is the most important impact you can have other than being here for every single objective, ever.

Garden of Terror is one shit map.

>>122051712
Honestly, just don't die a lot and that's enough.

>>122051712
XP contribution is probably the most "important" stat, but even then it's really easy to pad it by ignoring objectives and pushing lanes

H-here I go

>>122051712
The stats are so vague they don't really tell much. And it's going to get even worse with the score board changes.

For now, just don't die a bunch and make sure that your take down score is relatively close to your entire team's takedown score, it at least shows that you were around the teamfights

Honestly, none of these stats are a good indicator of performance in this game. Kills and assists would be good indicator but the game doesn't have that. Deaths might be the only relevant stat there.

>>122053192
just so everyone knows, it's a retarded bug with Lili's little dragon pet thing that adds the target heroe's damage on top of your's you're only adding like 400 damage overall with each cast

1) retarded faggots who want to go be the "lone wolf" fucks because they can't actually socialize outside with other humans, so you're literally playing with a sperg

2) burst is fine but it's been indirectly nerfed with the tankier teamcompositions, given that most warriors and a few supports have literally a talent that makes Nova do only 25% damage with a full combo, she can't do her job

3) people are retarded fucknuggets and try to lane with Nova, she has shit waveclear and can't even soak properly because she's got no escapes, 90% of people play her wrong and if you see a Nova on your team, chances are very high she's one of those people playing her wrong

4) Nova's playstyle doesn't suit almost everyone who plays games, she demands that the player know when to get in and how to surgically get out, instead, people play her like Caitlyn from League of Retards and try to "play standard" when her kit literally points away from standard play

Clever but you only made 2 wrong assumptions.
>I don't play Nova
>I don't want her buffed
I want this shit reworked since le sexy metroid girl keeps popping up in my games being useless as fuck.

Zeratul at least can cleave down the waves thus being semi useful instead of standing around when he realizes he can't gank shit.

Don't worry you don't miss out on that much damage. I don't trust anyone to peel for me so i usually go for the drugs too.

Jesus christ is this game so dead that you can only keep it alive by baiting each other into shit opinions?
