HotS is gonna see a HUGE spike in players for like 3 days when Tracer is released, what are you plans to avoid the swarm of retarded vegheads that'll join, feed a couple of times, then leave, never to come back. oh, and they don't give a flying fuck about leaver status or anything since they're only going to play 1/2 game of HotS just to try out their waifu Tracer
New map is cool, loved the fight between the 2 Nexus Lords
New map featuring Blackheart WHEN?
I've gone from trash to utter trash in these last couple of weeks. I don't know what happened, but every win I squeeze out has three losses beside it.
It might be because I am trying new characters (in particular Assassins, which I've always been shit at) or it might be the new scaling changes, but either way, I feel like I'm going to have more and more frustrating matches.
I haven't won a single game on the new map since PTR.

>>123834397
because tits?
the same "patriarchy" they bitch about has created a society where they're allowed to do these things and get away with it because they're 'womyns' or some shit
it's the same thing as when a man rapes a woman, he gets prison for decades, when a woman rapes a man, she gets a slap on a wrist and a finger wagged at her face telling her not to do it again

>>123837253
>>123835650
Most of my games, win and loss, are decided on party composition first and foremost. I'm on a HUGE winning streak, but only about half are skill based -- the other half are basically "someone on the enemy team picked Falstad or Nova."
Cho'gall is a great hero (for me anyway), I've trained my wife to be a great Gall, and that means one fewer random that could select Nova and fuck me up.

>>123840874
Also Jimmy would destroy him.
Anyone notice a large amount of people who feed and blame their teammates for every death, then avoid any conflict like the plague in an attempt to have a lower death counter at the end of the match?
I hate to use the word, but the toxicity this weekend has been astronomical.
How would Abathur comment on HoTS balance?
Wait a fucking minute.
I just bought the Succubus Kerrigan skin on a whim without owning the champion and it let me.
Does this mean I can't use a skin I own once her free week is over?

lol, yup
you dun fucked up
>cho'gall on our team
>dives the entire enemy team when they're two levels up
>has 10 deaths at the end of the game
nice
>>123842634
retard virus is contagious
enemy team split on tower of doom and kept getting ganked, their Nazeebo even gave up and ended the game with like 16 deaths
we were gonna win, needed like 2/3 more shrines or whatever, and then everyone on my team decided they were going to wave their dicks at the enemies and dove the core
only, you can't dive the core on ToD, you just get chunked by cannons, the enemy team had a murky, and of course, they need to kill murky
so they all watch Muradin get chunked
AND THEN THEY DECIDE, "WHERE MURADIN FAILED, I SHALL SUCCEED"
we were level 22 vs 19
in the 60 seconds it took for 4 members of my team to respawn, the took boss, all 3 camps, and reclaimed their three forts
we lost about a minute later when they all chased murky again
>>123842893
I can just buy the hero with gold I guess, but it didn't even occur to me at the time and thinking back on it, it's weird that the system lets you do it.
>>123842826
the only skin that gives you the hero for buying it is Ronin Zeratul, which is just a bug that Blizzard decided wasn't worth fixing or punishing
>>123842832
He would fill him full of daylight.

the starter box is $10 on amazon
some dude on reddit did math required to unlock all the content for League of Legends (all champs + runes)
turns out it'd take over 6000 hours, equalling over 12,000 30 minute games with a 50% win/lose ratio (including daily IP bonuses)
anyone do the math for HotS?
>>123847453
Are you referencing that one image that says you only get 50 ip for winning a game back when you'd get 150+?
Honestly, it doesn't matter to me. People rarely want to play as every character anyways. Sure a tryhard can shout "lol u dunt no how to play every character? wot a skrub" but those same tryhards shout "lol why do you play anyone aside from the top 3 ranked characters of that role? wot a skrub"
>>123847453
this is a year old. As of last december, everything that could be bought with just gold cost 496,000. It is certainly way more now.
Most of your gold comes from daily quests, trying to get that with a 50% win rate from qm would take 19840 matches.
Again not counting daily quests, hero levels, player levels, or the rare shit like treasure goblins
>>123848624
Hero prices have gone down as well.

>>123848624
This is why the game didnt take off. 8 thousand games or hundreds of dollars to unlock the heroes(and no extras) was(is) too much
>>123849187
Something like 5 heroes heroes have had price reductions, meanwhile you have had a years worth of 10k heroes added, either way the game is expensive as fuck
>>123849207
this >>123848624

>we have the win

>>123849470
I think thanksgiving weekend is to blame. All the kids are out of school and the normalfags dont have work.
>>123849525
Not updated since august so I know it is missing chen and jaina
Prices drops have been fairly rare. The game absolutely costs more to unlock everything now, then it did a year ago, unless you want to count the current half off sale we are having right now

You wanna know which ranks are the worst? Not 40-50, not 20-10. It's the 30s and 20s, because you're never getting out once you're in. In 40s or 50s you can get carried to hell and back, and if you lose, you lose exactly nothing. 20s and 10s are at least individually good enough to make up for lack of teamplay. But if you somehow get put into 30s, you might as well get a new acc and start over because you're NEVER gonna leave. Solo lane Li Li while they're 5 man raiding you in bot? Seen it in 30s. Muradin dives a fort with full defenses at level 1? Seen it in 30s. Solo healer monk takes Iron Palm and then afks during teamfights because "theyre gonna kill me ;-;"? Seen it in FUCKING 30s.

>>123859525
Go ask any high MMR player about thrall. Most of them will tell you he's fine if not really good right now. People have even been first picking him in HL.
>>123859636
Thrall is simply outright outclassed by Kerrigan and Sonya. There is no reason to pick him over the other two.
Melee Assassins in general have a huge balancing problem.

>>123859525
>le thrall isn't fine meme XDD
>>123859707
I would disagree. Thrall has more reliable self healing than both of them and has consistent poke with CL build (which many high MMR players have been using recently), a feature that Kerrigan and Sonya severely lack. That's not even considering sunder. Thrall's winrate is even the highest of the three right now, above even vikings in masters.
>>123859906

so yesterday i climbed from rank 5 to 2, then i went to play duo with my rank 25ish friend (which turned out to be a very bad idea). after that i've been getting teams filled with retards every game, even soloque and i've lost 7 in a row now. Am I completely doomed or is there still hope?

Does having two low gold quests saved really effect the odds of getting a high gold quest for your third or does everyone just do their quests as they get them regardless?
>>123865850
You can't get a quest you already have. So yes, your odds of getting a high gold quest is technically increased by holding two shitty ones. I wouldn't go out of my way to hold 2, though. Like, if you wanna play a hero but it would complete one of your held quests, just go ahead and play the hero. The net gold increase isn't worth ruining your own fun.

I don't think it's bad, people overreact like hell to it, heck he even has a different voice in hearthstone, i agree he dosen't sound like a mindless puppet of the scourge, so he gets more personality, plus he makes sweet sugarly love to zagara so he ok
Also they could just use blum for both, abathur talks slows and sounds a bit different, took me a while to realise it was him

You know it's going to be a shit game no matter what. This is the worst thing in this genre. In TF2 you see your team is full of snipers and spies. You can just relocate to another server. In a MOBA you are a prisoner and sometimes you even have to visit the torture chamber.

Strongest baseline auto attack in the game. His abilities also hit really hard. Good sustain. Has multiple builds depending on the situation. Has one of the best ults in the game and his biggest weakness was removed with the last patch in that he didn't get good until very late in the game.

Abathur is not shit if you have a good MMR...which places your post in trashcan league
>>123844140
I can dig that!
>>123881843
He's pretty shit on most maps. He's only really good on Infernal Shrines, Cursed Hollow, Sun Temple and BoE. But his viability on BoE took a little hit because XP doesn't matter as much.
Basically the maps it's harder to keep track of him doing his back door shit he's still good on. The patch hurt him for sure though. Especially since he can be killed so much easier now.
Li Li is the best support.

When is he going to get re-worked. He's either dogshit or absurdly overpowered when he has the perfect team to support him. Not to mention he's the least fun hero to play against. If I wanted to fight a hero that zip zapped around everywhere I'd go back to Dota and get raped by a Storm Spirit player.
what the actual fuck is happening with Blizz servers today?
>>123883914
When Diablo, Gazlowe and Chen do. They have the same problem. They are either insane or shit.
Well except Gazlowe, I don't know if he's ever been good. Maybe when you could have 4 turret charges stocked at a time.
Oh boy, here we go.

The idea is late game you have so many turrets they don't dare enter your zone cause you aren't worth it.
That laser is shit and he should really good something that zones people out instead of it.
I would recommend a little flying turret you can throw on someone but they already did that with Zag.
>>123885439
huh. I do buff turrets for slows and sometimes range. But I also talent for the slow/minion freeze on laser and an extra time bomb charge.
Unfortunately I think he just needs to have a couple turret talents rolled together into one? Like maybe attacks or gathering scrap can enhance turrets?

Any tips?
>>123894554
You should stay behind the rest of the team and not somewhere at the side, which would get you rekt if they decided to focus you. You're lucky they didn't. The Li Li couldn't heal Raynor because you were split, needing heals on the other side of the fights
>>123894996
I do mean 'behind' by sidelines. I just stood out of trouble is what I meant by that.
Raynor was the one who literally went to their sides and just got fucked up each time
>>123894042
I've won maybe one game a day in the last week and a half. I can't even blame my team, on the games we win, I have 1-2 more deaths than the next guy, so I clearly got carried.
I've been bullied by all sorts of characters. I've been trying to play Jaina and have been bullied by Sonya, Tychus, Nova, Zeratul, Murky, Kerrigan, Butcher... Just dead, like all the time.
I end up apologizing to my team while waiting twenty minutes to respond. No one ever flames me. No one ever says anything mean. People just say "no worries, man", "we had a bad comp" or "it is just qm, don't worry".
I think it is the scaling changes fucking me. Also, me trying to branch out from just playing Warriors. My shitty positioning is suddenly a much bigger problem.
I haven't won a single game on the new map since PTR, where I won two games as Vikings. I show up to objective and just die. I would say my team should be there earlier, but I think I'm just supposed to wait for team.
>>123895460
just keep at it, you'll improve
if you want to get better at positioning, force yourself to play heroes with no escapes. That's probably why your positioning is poop to begin with, I'd guess you were playing muradin or anub or something and would just get the fuck out of there whenever you were caught off position
>>123895460
It's all pretty much entirely a question of positioning if the melee assassins you mentioned give you trouble. You just kind of have to work with your team to bait them out of position, instead of going further in order to try deal damage, where you just get instarekt. The exception is Nova, which will pick you off with ease at the sidelines, especially if you let yourself drop to half health.
Try playing very passively, but not too passively. Poke, drop abilities into chokepoints or in order to zone. Deal small amounts of damage at a time on key targets.
How many games have you played according to your profile? Have you kept your hotslogs up to date? Over there you might find some data to improve yourself.
>>123895769
Yeah, I play characters who either have escapes or escape-like thing. I used to play a lot of Johanna, Anub, Rehgar.
My worst matches are places Iike BoE, where I have no idea where to stand during teamfights and someone just walks around my team and fucks me up.
Anyway, I'll keep at it. I've been playing a lot of new heroes lately.
>>123895976
http://www.hotslogs.com/Player/Profile?PlayerID=5427694
I haven't uploaded anything since like Tuesday, I think. But yeah, about 350 games. Seeing all those percentages dip below 50 kind of killed my desire to upload.
Being more willing to just poke and be careful would probably help a lot.
>>123824285
Since he is OP now, I'm thinking of getting green Jesus... BUT, the thing is, Lunara, my gf ('till Valeera, the real one, comes) is MAYBE coming this week. What should I do?
>>123897308
she's not coming out until after Dec 8th you faggot, Blizzard doesn't release heroes in the middle of a sale
>>123897167
Owch. The worst win ratios are always against either heavy divers or heavy sustain, the former which could and should be heavily punishable. The Butcher for example has wrecked your team in 36 of 51 games. A clear sign of lack of target focus, especially crowd control, probably due to the skill of the players.
You'll probably have to get lucky as hell to ever get out of ranks like that. It's upsetting to think about that, since it's almost out of your control as a single player. Or you could create an entirely new account which seems to be what Blizzard wants. $$$
How many ranked points per win is normal? I'm getting around 300
>>123897387
Listen to me you piece of trash, if she comes this week is OBVIOUS that the sale won't apply to her since she is new.
NOW, I could also get green Jesus with shekels and buy a master skin for one of my waifus... Decisions, decisions!
>>123898124
You are still in placements chump, that bonus will vanish sooner or later. Think about them as a post placement matches.
>>123898084
Yeah, it is pretty rough. I've definitely had teamfights where our team is dominated and their's is all standing with a sliver of health. Which I only assume is due to lack of focus.
I'm not gonna say I'm better than my teammates, I clearly am not. But by our retard powers combined, we really do fuck all most of the time.
I'm not making a new account, too many skins and what not, but I'll keep at it. And yeah, I doubt I'll get out of this MMR.
>>123897308
why is Thrall op? He's my bae
>>123898848
All you can really do is learn from yours and other peoples mistakes and improve as a player.
Do you play solo or with other people in a party?
>>123899371
Solo. I played with a friend sometimes, but she doesn't really play much anymore. Last time we played together, we lost all three games, which isn't fun. At least for her. I actually liked two of those games okay, they felt pretty close.
>>123888898
And heres your typical faggot Abathur player. Spouting this shit meme talk that Abathur does while chortling behind his keyboard and thinking everyone will think its hilarious.
Pro tip: No one thinks its funny or clever except for other Abathur autists.
anyone know when thrall is goin down in price? Or know who the next hero is.
How does hostlogs work?
Do I make an account and upload all the replays I have?
Right now they have some stuff about me, but the winrates only show Kerrigan, with all other characters it doesn't show anything.
Also it shows nothing about hero league and according to it I had 100% winrate yesterday and that is not true
>tfw you are all jealous of the Zeebostaxx
>>123898235
I'm not in placements though, maybe you just need to git gud
>>123899973
It currently only has replays of games that another person in the game uploaded. Which obviously isn't enough.
Upload all of yours.
Is Rexxarfun? I'm saving up for a hero but I don't know who to pick yet.
>>123899973
you only upload your wins and then shitpost about your mmr
>>123899669
Well, you've been winning slightly more when you're playing with friends.
I'd play with you out of curiosity if we were even on the same region. Just to see what life over there is like and maybe trying to see what you guys are doing wrong.
>>123900585
Well, we played a lot more way back when I had 2000 something MMR. I overall was winning more then.
Ah well.
I'm NA. I think my # is 1651, but I'm at work on my phone so I can't check.
I uploaded a replay or two to hotdogs, so you can watch that if you want to know what it is like in the trenches. Probably outdated though.

Really enjoying the game, just blew my money on the Storm Bundle, should I get the powerhouse bundle too? Or am I being duped by the black friday offers? The Bundle seems a great deal but are they usually good?
>>123903491
No one denies that he's good, he just whines way too much
>>123903550
I think what he means is his mmr is stratospherically high (4000+) and if his opponents are all at 3000-3800 his teammates have to be at 2200-3000 to even it out. It's an actual thing, only the overall team mmr is given a shit about by the matchmaking system.

>>123904339
>>acting like a memespouting autist because you're on a slightly popular stream is perfectly acceptable
i'm sorry, i didn't realize that being a streamer meant that you're entitled to win all your games with the competency of pro HotS teams
i didn't realize that if you got on stream you were supposed to try your best and play the game to the best of your ability as if you were trying out for pro teams
i didn't realize that when you see foerest's name on your team that you're supposed to get down on your knees and suck his dick so hard
gee, maybe if you took his cock out of your mouth, you'd be able to make proper arguments
it's completely acceptable to act like a memespouting autist, there's nothing that says you can't do that. you can't share accounts, you can't sell your account, you can't hack or cheat, but you're allowed to be a retarded fucknut on a guy's stream
get over yourself and take his dick of out mouth, there's nothing about him or his stream that entitles him to actually have competent people on his team other than you and his overwhelming sense of self-importance and entitlement

At the end decided to join when we were taking over and we end up winning
>>123898124
I think you get 100 for an even game, not including bonus points. If you're getting bonus points, that means your MMR is higher than your rank. Don't expect it to last too long.

Make sure you have them chilled before hitting them with Cone of Cold, that is your hardest hitting ability, you want to get good at applying chill with your frost bolt (if that's not an option blizzard first then after one wave hits use coc).
She needs to get in close usually to do damage, so watch your positioning, she is good at flanking and blowing people up. Unlike Kael where you can play passively, to play Jaina well you need to play aggressively.
Sometimes just letting this game go. It will probably end up dead anyways.
>>123910208
Apply six second chills with your Q.

>>123910848
I think Thrall is better currently, but only barely and he's also harder to play
>>123908024
It was rough, but we pulled through. Diablo apoc + gazlowe gravobomb + KT chainbombs = epic turnaround even after diablo, tyrael and gazlowe voicing a lot of discontent with each other early on.
Then again, it's pretty hard to lose to a team with Valla on it nowadays.

Whats the best Thrall 20: Nexus Blades or Worldbreaker?
Hey guys, I'm the shitter from earlier who has the abysmal MMR of like 1850. You guys were very helpful earlier today.
I was wondering if anyone would like to watch a replay of mine, where I feel as though I didn't do too badly, but we ended up losing, pretty badly.
I would really appreciate it. I'm playing Jaina because A. she's free right now, B. she has no escape so she should help me learn some better positioning and C. because I had the warcraft quest.
Here's the link. I would really appreciate any advice.
http://www.hotslogs.com/Replays/ShareReplay?ReplayShareID=12900

It doesn't always decide the game, however if the enemy team have some heavy hitters with burst ults you will get fucking wrekt if they have even half a brain.
There are VERY FEW times you should EVER engage lvl 9 vs lvl 10 even on maps like cursed hollow. But of course this being post release of cho'gall and shitters apparently flocking to nova and zeratul in droves QM is a goddamn nightmare. Hero league isn't even that much better in plat only real difference is bigger egos from players who think plat actually fucking matters.

>>123915961
I sure can't wait for level 1 decoy talent one in the chamber advanced cloaking with envenom!
>>123916082
Use nova as a scalpel, do not ever get triple tap. It's not even worth considering
>>123916186
What's wrong about triple tap anyway? It deals increased guaranteed hero damage since you can't miss with it, in comparison to precision strike. The cooldown however is 40s higher.
I am not bronze.
>>123916392
literally everything in the game stops it, it roots you in place, it uncloaks you, it doesn't have global range, it can clear waves, it's shit, don't take it
it's not guaranteed because by the time you get to Rank 45, people have half a brain and can intercept the shots since the game does an easy job of showing you the line the shots fly at
>>123916392
It can miss, you stuck standing there channeling it, orbitals global cast is pretty useful
>>123916549
>>123916516
I will use orbital then
>>123916392
Because it's easily blocked and when you have a Warrior soaking it with a Support healing said Warrior back up, it's not so great at al.
So basically because Warriors and Supports are as good as they are.
>>123916392
Even if you do line up the magical perfect shot with no one to block and no buildings to stop your shots they can still use just about any ability to negate the damage, they also have a MASSIVE timeframe to do this in. Also tassadar will outright fucking laugh at you as he goes invul just as the first shot gets to him.
>>123916516
You can cast it behind obstacles which I believe is the point. I believe precision strike also uncloaks you. "Intercepting" the shots requires body blocking them, thus just dealing damage to multiple targets, as strike would. So there is no missing.
But alright. I'll check it out myself next week.
>>123916740
just don't take tickle tap
your argument in "dealing damage to multiple targets" can already be done by PS with more efficiency
plus, Level 20, double charges
>>123915264
Couldn't do it. Azmodan was pretty much useless as he took the completely wrong build (no bound minion, black pool, no forced recruitment) and Raynor was complaining all game.

People with an ability to move usually just walk out of the damage zone. I don't think I've ever landed it on more than one (slowed) target at once.
>>123916920
Double charges is rarely ever worth taking, bolt and rewind are MUCH better picks in just about every situation. The one time where double charges can be safely picked is when you're already winning and dominating said win.
>>123917048
Try and predict movement alternatively use it right at the start of a teamfight when your warrior/initiation has started and everyone is going full ham in a tiny circle.
>>123917048
the rare times when i get Nova (Auto Select Leaver QMs because fuck me if I'm going to play with a Cho'Gall or Gaz on my team in HL), i use PS to clear waves
i can do it in less than a second, fire it, forget it, and now all pressure top lane is gone
either that, or secure kills on forts and towers
>>123917157
if a Nova game ever gets to 20, you've probably won already anyway because she falls off hard once the enemy's tanks and healers start grouping up mid-game anyway
I must say, even sincer I bought Nova I was only using triple tap, that Orbital thing isn't bad.
>>123917297
Even if they start grouping up you can pick them off at your leisure, positioning and correct picking of targets will guarantee that a fight becomes 5v4 in your favour. The amount of panic a nova can cause is immense if applied right. However sadly most people play her as they would play zeratul and think they have any meaningful impact outside of bursting once.
>>123917413
btw guys, Double Orbital ... if I shoot one the other will be on CD? If it does, it is pretty good imo.
>>123917297
To be honest I feel horrible "wasting" heroics onto lanes, not precision strike does sound like it might be great on some maps where giant waves are generated sometimes.
>>123917413
>>123917576
Im gonna have fun killing you tomorrow.
>>123916956
>completely wrong build (no bound minion, black pool, no forced recruitment)
Do you get all your game knowledge from competitive games and don't know how to translate that information into normal games?
Going full push azmodan is nearly entirely useless in a game with no communication because azmodan will never be able to safely push something with how small the maps are without people forcing the enemy team away from him. Especially fucking dragonshire, he'd just be deadweight if he took that build.
I'm assuming he went for a dunk build, which is the right thing to do especially on that map.
>>123917576
they are one separate cooldowns
there's like 3 second delay before you can fire off your second one, or you can save it up and wait for the cooldown of the first one to come back up
>>123917985
>implying that full retard pushmodan isn't great at CommanderITF's MMR
>>123918180
I'm at a significantly higher MMR and people STILL just fight 4v5 if you're splitpushing and get rekt, then ping you 50 times.
>>123918067
Yeah I just noticed, Orbital is a lot better.
>Combo insta killed a guy
>teamfight on the otehr side of the map
>Killed 2 that tried to run to a brush with the Orbital
>>123831185
speaking of Blackheart, I haven't played his map in the rotation in a solid week, and it's my favorite map.
Is Blizzard forcing everyone to play nothing but ToD, Dragonshire, Battle of Eternity, Spider land and Sky Temple?
>>123918507
>Decide to spend day playing QM because I'm a masochist.
>20 matches later
>16 sky temple 2 spider queen 1 ToD 1 Dragonshire
Fuck sky temple, fuck it right up its sandnigger asshole. I swear my battlenet id is somehow tagged with "This nigga will get sky temple 90% of the time because reasons."
>>123918507
it seems that way, which is alright since those are the best maps except for Spider Meme, which they could switch for Blackheart
>>123914479
maybe against 4-5 melee because no one is going to wait for you to hit a couple shots on a team before diving or put up with you soloing buildings during an objective.
>tfw your matches are so filled with retards you have to report multiple people every game
>free Artanis
>have to deal with 1 week of people fucking up and making him look terrible
At least I have the master skin so people will know I know what I'm doing.
>>123917985
If you can't take a single fort when you have Azmodan and aren't really behind all game, your Azmodan is shit, no exceptions.
Also
>have malfurion as your healer
>lose
Both Malfurion and Jaina were legit garbage. Have to reset my matchmaking status in QM now otherwise it's just going to lump me in with bigger and bigger idiots. Jaina just picked a bunch of talents that had no synergy with each other and Malfurion..I legit don't know what he was doing.
>>123919610
he was trying out Malf first time HL, duh
>>123919489
getting to level 10 doesnt mean you know what you are doing

>>123832549
YES. It's really terrible.
In 6 hero league games yesterday, 4 times people picked Chogall despite everyone in the team writing 'NOOOOOOO'. One time a dude picked a support even though I had already taken LiLi, saying ''Let's break the meta'' (we fucking won the game lmao.
But people are just bad and have no consideration whatsoever for the team composition. I'm not even in the lower ranks, I'm rank 10 people should know what they are doing.

>>123920847
gonna be honest, watching a bronze replay is a waste of time for everyone here
like 90% of the shit you can do to improve would be to learn your own hero, learn positioning, and backing the fuck off when you're being bullied in lane
too many bronzefags think they can make the big plays when they're actually over extending
you have 10 seconds to name a hero more deserving to get into HotS than shadow hunter Vol'jin, Warchief of the Horde, Chieftain of the Darkspear tribe and rightful ruler of Durotar and the Echo Isles.
>>123921429

People say this like it means something
the darkspear tribe is just a bunch of really really weak trolls, murlocs almost wiped them out.
There's a reason almost every other troll tribe in WoW is part of a raid, dungeon, or otherwise associated with hard to kill things
>>123923402
this. Even the Amanis, Smoulderthorns, and Firetrees, who were slaughtered almost to the man during the Second War, still ended up stronger than the Darkspears. Literally the only weaker tribe was the one that had a single village in Darkshore that disappeared during the Cataclysm

second time I've been on it and it always attracts the most retarded ragers
like the tyrande is second pick and wants another healer so I go tassadar who is known well to be the outright best augment support to her and she starts complaining and saying I should take brightwing instead, this was before they picked butcher
so everyone except me is really really annoyed every time someone dies and it's only because the enemy is fucking retards and has butcher/tychus that we win anyway but god damn was this a pain to sit through
if any of you are rank 12-16 and come across LightBringer, just block them as soon as they start kicking off and hope it doesn't spread to everyone else, they're fucking bonkers

>>123924814
Blizzard said they want him to have a mechanic where he can turn into a dragoon, which technically isn't a robot, but whatever
>>123924976
I believe he turns into one on death and then he has to be killed again. And odds are they wont release another death-mechanic hero, especially protoss, any time soon.

To be fair it is Cho'Gall.
Cho'gall aside, shit like that shouldn't require wins
instead of 2 wins, just make it 4 games (win or loss)
with the way it is
1000 people play Cho'gall shits
500 win their first 2 games
500 don't (maybe they lost both, or lost 1)
500 remain
250 win in their next 2 games
250 lose and still haven't gotten their 2 wins
250 remain
125 etc.etc. etc.
until it gets down to this fucker >>123930713
