chen is a bruiser, he can't peel for fragile heroes the way a tank should

>>125815725
I agree he's more of a diving tank, but at level 26 he can peel pretty good. If his dive kick worked like it was supposed to he'd be a lot better at it.

Is this the improved matchmaking experience I kept hearing about?

>>125815725
Chen and Tyrael just have completely different roles. While they're both pretty good at diving, Chen is no doubt better at it, and while Chen can peel, Tyrael is no doubt better at that, especially with sanc.

>>125816035
Damn it not 26, 16 when he gets Pressure Point.

Should Blizzard divide the Warrior role into Bruiser and Warrior/Guardian?

I feel like there needs to be sub-roles established.

>>125816045
the rule is

IF Support on one team, there must be a Support on the other team

If Warrior on one team, there must be a Warrior on the other team

those are the only 2 rules, beyond the usual MMR shit

it has nothing to do with how many assassins or specialists there are on either team

>>125816239
Hots logs now puts heroes in more accurate roles

>>125816045
All it did was make it so every team should have a healer and a warrior. Or neither. I do feel bad for you guys for having a Lunara though.

Anyone know if the matchmaker changes apply to QM as well? I've played about 16 games since the patch and haven't had a single good match. I've only won three games, and even when I do win it's just one-sided. Every game, the losing team manages to destroy at most one fort. I used to have a pretty 50/50 win rate before, now my MMR has tanked 200 points in less than a week.

>>125817316
>Both teams have a support and a warrior.

It's working as intended. They said they were working on something separate for special heroes like Aba and Cho'Gall so that they wouldn't appear on a team that would completely destroy them.

How about this. We take owl away from Tyrande and give her wisp instead.

>>125820452
That doesn't really make any sense. Unstoppable wears off when you reach your destination or the time runs out. We both reached our destination at the same time (as we were both charging eachother and thus logically came into range for the stun at the exact same time, if you ever visited school you may remember "two points always have the exact same distance from eachother") it should've either preferably stunned both or stunned neither

It's not like it's a huge issue but it's kind of a beginner coding/logic mistake.

>The second one works because the first one reaches it's destination first.
Ok so
Point A moves towards point B, point B being the destination for point A.
Meanwhile, point B moves towards point B. Point A being the destination for point B.
Which one reaches its destination first?
If I remember correctly, that's fourth grade

>>125822619
It's like hit trading in most fighting games one move takes priority. Unstoppable doesn't always mean Unstoppable in this game.

Zagara's Maw or Zeratul's VP will stop something that's unstoppable. Meanwhile something that's Unstoppable will break Butcher's Chain or ETC's Mosh. Games just got some weird shit.

Fights happen at the turn in point mainly. I rarely have any pve only on this map. Except when I'm Illidan and PvE all day.

>>125823347
I'm doing my placement series.
So far my experience is "The first pick gets Lunara and his team loses horribly"

>>125823347
What? I pick robo-gaz at rank 1 just because this game has become hollow for me. The last couple of new releases are so underwhelming nothing but picking janky picks is fun anymore. Sure I can pick Kael every game and pretty much get a 50%+ win rate but where's the fun in that? Plus if Gazlowe is getting buffed I want to git gud at him.

>>125823347
Also does 200k siege damage gazlowe at 32 minutes mean he did good or bad?

>>125815132

>>125823054
>It's like hit trading in most fighting games one move takes priority.
Yes, but these have actual priorities. By design.

>Zagara's Maw or Zeratul's VP will stop something that's unstoppable.
That's a mechanic and has nothing to do with what I'm describing

>Meanwhile something that's Unstoppable will break Butcher's Chain or ETC's Mosh.
Also a mechanic. Butcher's Chain is just a movement effect like a knockback, mosh is just a stun.

These things have nothing to do with two butchers charging eachother as that stun is blocked by unstoppable. So either they both get stunned as two points always have the same distance from eachother or neither get stunned if unstoppable doesn't wear off before the stun lands.

It's absolutely impossible for one butcher to reach the other first as they're both moving towards eachother and always have the same distance to eachother. Basic math mate

>>125824224
Yea. that's what disappointed me most about artanis. He had awesome campaign skills that could have been his kit. Instead he has blade dash and some gay prism he throws. His trait should have been a permanent shield and he can refill it. Regens slowly out of combat

>>125824773

>>125824548
Actually the unstoppable effect stops right at the end of butchers charge before he hits his target. You can time your charge as butcher is charging you so yours is just starting up and is unstoppable as he is lunging and you will stun him and not be stunned

>>125825383
The only thing they mentioned about him was not wanting to use him because he'd have to have a resurrect ability and they just released Leoric and they didn't want to many characters with that.

>>125824975
I guess that's a fair point, but it's definitely not what happened. We were both charging at eachother for a fair distance. If unstoppable wears off before the stun hits, that would mean both should've been stunned.

>>125825672
They are. This is phase 1 of the change. They made a giant post detailing the different phases they are going to go through with match making to make sure it's working as intended.

One of the changes they mentioned coming is that heroes like Cho'Gall, Nova, Abathur won't be placed on teams that completely fuck the team.

>>125826106
there really isn't because putting character's into boxes just leads to balancing changes like the tyrande/tassadar buffs, where people want a prototypical character to play. everything gradually becomes a couple re-skins with different animations doing roughly the same thing every game.

He can be good in lots of situations, but he can also be really really shitty and useless in many.
Especially against ranged heroes he has a hard time, and I don't just mean the ones that ourange his turrets and can kill them safely.

It's always fun when people chase you into turrets to bully you out of lane and you just turn around and smack them in the face and they either back off and heal or die. Most people aren't aware that 3+ turrets on a single target do pretty substantial DPS.

i regret buying her, everything about her feels so shit, there hasnt been a case where i didnt think "fuck i wish i picked raynor/valla"

>>125831843
Every lunara I play against or with does this thing where they rub up on the enemy team to harass them and the entirely enemy team just turns and swallows them

Then again, that's the case with every new hero who doesn't have any escapes.

Try to get gud with TLV in QM. People rage at you for keeping them still for too long. I still have a high win rate with them even though I dunno what the fuck I'm doing with them all the time. It gets me titled when people ping spam when I keep them still for more than 1 seconded its fucking annoying.

>>125831843
I have every hero so I always have enough gold to buy the new hero. I don't know how much I'll play her but I also don't remember the last time I played Malf or others in the cast either.

>>125832159
Just say ur body soaking

>>125832159
A lot of the time especially in the beginning they should just be hiding in bushes and soaking.

>>125832159
People think you're bad at micro if you don't move them around every second
Just ignore them, make sure you stay in XP range when soaking and make sure you have each lane hotkeyd so you can switch between them and help out/flee where you need, much like playing abathur

>>125832119
Every Lunara I've seen has played her like shit. They are constantly hitting the same target even past 3, they stand fucking still like retards, they chase and get killed

Lunara must not chase, she must rotate targets, and she needs to be moving

good luck with this games player base

>>125832780
I feel like the way to get the most out of her is the way Foerest plays her and concentrates more on the slowing aspects of her then the damage.

>>125832960
Foerest sucks with her badly

>>125832159
Vikings ping help at themselves when they take damage. You sure that's not what you think your teammates ping spamming you?

>>125833059
I'm not saying he's good, I just said I think he has the right idea. She doesn't have the greatest range and so going the AA damage route is a little risky.

It's either that or building up her Q I think and that just makes her feel like a shitty Kael.

>>125836897
or maybe, just maybe
you are a shit

>>125836159
No, it's not. The lower your MMR, the higher your potential MMR gain per game.
Getting from 3k to 4k is atleast 100 won games in a row. Getting from 1k to 2k is about 15.
If you don't win them, you're in the right skill level

>>125837110
no he is right

Lunara is infact shit, she dies to literally any kind of CC.

Of course she has high over all damage, she's a dot hero. That doesn't make her good.

>>125837426
The worst thing about her is that you have to spread the dot around to be useful and slow them all, but then your team severaly lacks focus damage.

>>125837212
People are getting 10 points per average games at 1k if they've played a substantial amount of games. 10x15 =/= 1000. You only get 100 point games when you first start.

In the game I had just now, the enemy team had a single piece of CC that could interrupt moshpit (zagaras maw). He used it twice. The entire game. It was a 21 minute game. Two moshpits.

There were countless 3 man moshpits with zagaras he could've gotten, I see that shit. He didn't take those. He always only used them if he could get 4 people, but by then it didn't matter anymore cause half our team is dead.

What's the trick to using a barrel to seperate a target reliably?

File: nice blink faggot.webm (3MB, 1600x900px) Image search: [Google]

3MB, 1600x900px

>>125848020
Barrel collision depends entirely on where the target collided with you on your hitbox. That means things like the model of the barrel and your velocities at the time mean absolutely nothing. Treat the barrel like a big circle and anyone you collide with gets pushed directly away from the center. This means if someone is just slightly off center when you hit them they're going to get pushed to the side a bit.

Honestly, you just have to go in as straight a line as possible once you've already caught someone. That's the easy part, though. The hard part is getting a good setup for a barrel.

>>125848020
The trick is to pick Panda Pals.

Hyperion upgrade is really shit compared to bolt or nexus frenzy. Those are really the only two choices despite which ult you took.

>solo lane as Lunara against Butcher+Muradin
Good thing they were retarded as fuck and couldn't kill me even after a double stun. I can't count how many times I got my little doe cunt through the gate with like 10 HP because Lunara's movement totally fucks up melee AA. Then after I got Jump, Butcher never bothered charging me after the first time I jumped his charge.

Best girl 2016.

>>125854563

why do you have to be like that

>>125854347

shit is hilarious

but no, Nexus Frenzy is so versatile, plus the 20% additional range will help keep you alive during the late game fights when a single wipe means gg

>>125854563
Butcher charge into mura stun should have had you dead 100% of the time unless they stacked CC like idiots or they engaged you like 0.5 feet from your gate.

>>125832159
i played like 600 or more QM games with TLV. I've seen it all and just ignore it. If someone can read the situation and warn me of a gank, then that's good. Just ignore the haters, get that level 13-11 or 16-14 lead and group up.

What people don't get is you can deny exp and increase your teams chances of ganking if you keep waves as close to your towers and minimizing wasted tower ammo. There's a sweet spot for this and it takes some finesse attacking the creeps and taking the right amount of hits to keep the creep wave there. There's little incentive for the other team to chase you close to your towers. What irks me more is bad players can't tell this is happening and try to always clear waves because there's nothing else to do.

What's next level is teammates reading other team chasing a viking down and killing a hero for a viking or even pulling the viking last second and saving it with Z

There's an art to making a viking look vulnerable and easy to kill but a trap in disguise.

And another art to making it a pain in the ass for heroes especially nova and zeratul to gank your vikings.

Built a new mustardrace for the first time and I can play everything on Ultra. It's great. Only been able to play 4 games so far.

Heard the best way to play is still all heroes to 5 for gold and then what? I only have about half there now.

Is the 365 stimpack-blizzardshekels worth it at the discounted price? It's 50g/match and quicker leveling so more gold rewards for higher hero levels yeah?

fucking teammates dont understand the strenghts of chen vs 0 stun comp. Countless times im jumping around 4 people trying to kill me for like good 40-50 seconds and they just stand behind and watch

If you queue as lunara in QM do you automatically get put against another lunara? I queue as other heroes and a lot of the time there will be 1 or 0 lunaras, but I always queue against another lunara when I queue as her.

>>125855518
She was just released so there was a lot of them in the system. The rush seems to have died down a bit and I'm frequently the only Lunara in games now.

>>125855036
the year-long stimpack has the same value as the 30 day one, iirc

otherwise yeah pretty much, theres gold rewards at 9 now as well though if you really enjoy a hero

>>125855182
>0 stun comp
Which never happens, unless in QM, where everything goes, and even a triple trap nova can wreck havoc

>lost both keeps, but we're not really behind in levels anymore because they got cocky and were killing our fountains while an immortal we got because of a really good teamfight is getting one of their keeps

Feels pretty good
hope that abathur feels like the cocky shitter he is

>tfw dont own a green mount

Why is Lunara classified as an assassin? She has like no burst damage, she is more of a "spread your poison to everyone to tick them down a little". She is like a specialist like Nazeebo except more squishy and less siege.

I know the feel.

>>125857907
Lunara isn't a specialist
she's designed to to damage, it doesn't matter how much burst you have

I also don't know what kind of lunaras you play against, with the right talents that hero has sick burst

>>125857907
>no burst

>>125857991
I don't know, on chen I just kind of stand there drinking and even a 1 level higher dryad can't break my shield. She seems like she always sucks and has low damage.

>>125858505
>implying any single assassin can out damage Chen drink

ok bros, it's that time again, what buy?

>>125858505
...most heroes can't break your shield with pure damage.
One of the few that come to mind would be nazeebo (who is a specialist by the way, ruining your point), falstad with a sustain damage build, thrall above level 16, and jimminy raynor with giant killer
How often do you play chen?

>>125858565
AA valla can

>>125858684
Raynor, valla seem to have no problem breaking it, and raynor doesn't even need to knock me away. Lunara spamming all those abilities like her ult 3 times and autoing me can't do anything.

Why are people doing the boss with 5 enemies up and nearby? And why aren't they listen to the fucking danger pings?

>>125858828
>>125858684
She doesn't seem like either a sustained or burst damage dealer. Like burst from jaina or kael will break it easy, but lunara can't seem to do it as a sustained or burst. She seems like she is a weird middle ground of not being able to do either effectively.

>>125858621
Mr skeltal

>>125858860
Why listen to danger pings when you can go for sick plays instead?

When is blizzard going to address the glaring imbalance in their game where 1-2 heroes in each role are so high above the curve that there is literally no reason to pick anyone else?

>>125856486
>tfw you will never be bro with Green Jesus
But you can. He works at Blizzard.

>>125860079
People grinding MMR are always going to prefer a few heroes. I don't think that is something that is going to change.

Once they release a lot more heroes I'm sure there will be better variety, but right now there are just too few heroes in each role to really see much diversity.
