What are the rewards and requirements for the HL rewards? Never bothered with HL since it's the exact same as QM except more stress and time-wasting. Exact same retards.

Rewards are this, you should do placement matches before tuesday if you've never stepped into it. That will be 20 games you need to play to get placed, then if you want to grind out any other ranks or just see what you get after placements.

If you don't have an interest in activley improving in what you're playing then you simply don't enjoy what you're playing. It doesn't inspire you at all.
So even then your "comfy/fun" faggot defense falls by the wayside. All you're doing is sitting in a chair dying in game because you're a shitter, and in real life because you're not doing something you enjoy with your time.

Less than scum.
This doesn't just go for this game, but all games, I bet none of you faggots are good at anything you play because you all have such a shitter mindset.
You are the people who hold everyone back in a guild.
You are the ones that sit there with a shit eating grin when games get dumbed down for casual markets.
You are the people that pay to win because you have no natural drive.
Why are you even spending your free time doing something that gives you no inspiration? That doesn't make you happy to improve?
They invented inclusiveness in schools because turbofaggots like you people cried when they came last when they put the least amount of effort in.
Here's your fucking gold star boys, I hope mommy puts it on the fridge next to all your other fake achievements.

You all need to stop getting so mad because I called out your shitter mentality of being fine being literal dogshit.
Go improve your game, read some talent guides, watch some pro play, practice your movement and positioning, have some fucking pride.

>>145282736
>not building locust
do you even push lanes? kys

>>145282736
Because some Aba players post high damage with a mine build then complain about their team. When the lack of damage during a team fight is whats throwing the game.

Don't you find it hard playing at your rank as Aba when the majority of players at that rank probably don't know how to utilise him?

I'd say duo queue as a combo if you want to raise your rank as Aba or play a hard meta hero until your rank improves and go back to Aba then.

Auras should be from talents, selection of 3 styles at level 7 or something.
Trait should be hammer of wrath to execute low HP players with a CD

I'm not a fan of the ults, maybe make the ults different blessings that buff you and your team mates for 15 seconds, might giving damage, kings max HP and a shield?

what kind of a retard do you hav to be to enjoy playing as tyrael, maining him? please explain? i play hots for a year, i have every single hero and none of them, EVEN FUCKING CHROMIE, are not as unenjoyable as the hooded angelnigger. i never pick him in hero league, AND very, very extremely rarely i play him in quick match. so im doing it right now, his damage sucks balls, his sustain and survivability suck balls too. i understand how he can be useful in competitive and his level 16 q is fun, but beyond that, what is supposed to keep me entertained? boring and useless hero, yet ppl like Mopsio still pick him on high mmr hero league

>>145282556
If you want to rank up, why don't you play a meme assassin who can make and break plays by themselves as long as they patiently follow their team waiting fro their chance?

Assumin you're a pro Hero Leaguer and I'm the shittiest of the shitty wood league QMers, even when you decide to play QM to raise some new hero to 5 the likelihood we have to play together is abysmal.

So you have fun constantly "challenging" yourself at HotS and I have fun turning off my brain and watching my hero whacking other heroes or getting whacked. In the end what we do is largely irrelevant to society, to our self-worth, to everything, so what's it to you?

You'll be even more surprised to hear that she can be a strong pick in such situations because it's team of pros that cna outplay her easily but she can be very good against solo shitters and not-so-shitters.

Chromie can be used their, but you use her to poke the fuck out of the enemy team. You know where they are going to be. Just drop breaths and blasts all over the immortal. They'll ether get annoyed enough to come off the immortal and bully you or just sit there and tank your hits to the face. Especially with Mobius loop where you turn into a little spell machine gun.

It's not a reset, retard, it's a loosening on confidence.

Meaning your MMR will stay the same but your first games will have more impact than normal on it.

How many games we do not know because Blizzard will never be trasparent enough.

>>145304794
how can you rate tomb so high then DS so low when they play almost exactly the same?

>>145300430
its not a meme. i play thi shit for a year now and i keep playing because for me there are no better games in sight atm, i just picked up hots because im a fan of warcraft characters, but the game itself is absolute shit if you compare it to other mobas.

the only reason why i dont switch over to the superior mobas is because its definitely too late to become a progamer at them. might start playing overwatch, idk. but right now sticking to hots until some interesting game comes out.

blizzard have done a very poor job with the game in nearly all aspects. it is too simplistic, very easy game, but there are still shitload of noobs. theres never good balance, just like in wow, cuz its fucking blizzard. the community is shit (its anti-toxic, so if ur an angry guy like me, u will be pissed OFF!) u cant flame because u will get chat banned.

matchmaking is very bad also.

no reason to start this game. u have to grind gold to enjoy all the chars, STUPID AS fuck. QUICK MATCH SUCKS BALS! RANKED SUCKS BALLS. the characters are boring, they are too fucking simple. there is no complexity in the game what so ever. ITS VERY DUMB STUPID GAME!

* bad MM
* no balance
* shit community of dumb stupid faggots
* a lot of EXTREMELY BAD PLAYERS
* average skill level is SUPER SHIT
* u cant carry idiots here AT ALL, 1 bad fucker AND ITS A LOSS
* u get chat banned for flaming SUBHUMAN RETARD IDIOTS WHO FUCK GAMES UP
* no complexity
* teams are leaving hots esport scene, its dying definitely
* prices are too high, both gold and real money
* u get gold rly slowly
* characters not cool enough and they all have almost the same build
*DID I MENTION THAT 60% OF THE HEROES IN THIS GAME ARE NOT EVEN PLAYABLE IN COMPETITIVE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE ARE BETTER ONES?

>>145304978
I absolutely hate the Dragon Shire mechanic and the rotate route are dogshit awful if you lose mid control
Also I like Tomb because it's intense at high mmr but I get why it would be boring otherwise since the game stretch for too long with no so good players

>>145305137
These are true, though

>bad MM
>shit community of dumb stupid faggots
>a lot of EXTREMELY BAD PLAYERS
>u cant carry idiots blah blah

Are all true. I'm in diamond and I may as well be in silver. You still get total retards on your team. The game seemingly stacks games against you where the enemy gets better team comps (3 supports while we have 0, um....hotstards?!) Where the enemy are coordinated/non-shit and you constantly have at least one dickhead that overextends and feeds 24/7. It happens all the time. No matter who you play. No matter where you are. No matter what you do. You'll lose and it's most likely because of random shits that you should not be queued with. I want to play a team game, not be a day-care worker.

Why is it only MOBA faggots that try to justify the fucking god-awful matchmaking? I don't care if the game has shitters, as long as I rightfully don't get put with them. Put me with equally skilled allies and opponents. Stop giving me all the shitters to carry free wins while they do absolutely nothing and I actually try.

>inb4 you've been muted

>>145306153
>Put me with equally skilled allies and opponents
That's what puts me off. I've been grinding MMR for weeks now and I went slowly from 2200 to 3300 soloQueueing and I feel like half my teammate around my MMR still have no game sense whatsoever and make awful decision ( WHO THE FUCK STILL GOES FOR BOSS DURING A CURSE ??)
I'm still climbing up at a steady rate and I really dont feel you can get good games unless you hit 3.7-3.9k mmr

>>145306680
And if you were to get into the top 1% of MMR. Then what? All that stress, effort and time for....nothing. You're being a slave for a game that isn't worth it. I've reached Diamond and it hasn't changed at all.

The game is a huge carrot on a stick and insanity simulator. I'm about done playing 'seriously' in HotS since nearly nobody I queue with ever gives a shit. Why should I strain my mind occasionally for these people that don't ever do the same in return and occasionally abuse others (and/or myself)?

I like games where you plug in and play. Not grind 1000 hours for "eh you might get reasonable matches, eventually. but the match making is fucked all the way up to diamond so what makes you think it'll be good in master?"

Like the other game I play is BFGArmada. Load it up, pick my fleet, shoot shit. Isn't too difficult but requires some planning and sometimes quick thinking/movement. HotS is...grind and help ungreatful retards. Win = feel okay. Lose = feel shit. Sounds like a shit game the more I think about it.

>>145306153
2.7k MMR isn't very good and more than likely you throw at least 10x more than you think you do. Sorry to be the one to inform you.

>>145307327
Apparently better than most. Don't you know how MMR or ranks work?

Actually have you even played HotS? I know some people stroll through /vg/ and just randomly shit-post in threads they have no idea about.

>Apparently better than most.

Mate I have some advice for you, the vast majority of people who play video games are absolute shit. Having an MMR that's "better than most" is an entirely meaningless indication.

I'm telling you again, especially at 2.7k-3k MMR (Which I also fluctuate between), you are absolutely nowhere near as good as you think you are and are making huge mistakes that if you focused on correcting would net you more wins in the long run than wringing your hands over the time that one retard grabbed the boss when he shouldn't have.

You will always remember the match where some idiots dived into the throw pit and "cost the match", but you will never remember the dozens of mistakes you personally made in that match that put your team in the position where a bad engage led to you losing.

I can tell right away that your attitude is shit and that the only person keeping you from 3.5k MMR is yourself.

I've nearly done the campaign and been doing solo skirmish Chaos. Chaos are my bois.

Again, partly why I like the game is because to me it's 100% solo. People just ruin most games (multiplayer)

And yes solo has its issues, AI cheat all the time, etc.

>>145308918
I love this "let pubs shit all over you all the time and you'll be #1!" reddit meme. It's just a sly way to say "stop being toxic, you hurt my feelings ! :<" Oh and your logic for bias is false. You can write down each game and summerise it. Vast majority of losses are because of dumb fucks on your own team. And it's a fact that match making is horrible and you get total feeding shitters on your team. AND it's a fact with all MOBA that one guy can single-handedly throw the entire game.

The whole "s-s-stop being toxic!" is a self-serving trick that blinds others.

>>145303165
Sylvannas also destroys on both Dibbles maps.

>>145311798
>"let pubs shit all over you all the time and you'll be #1!"

lmao, not at all what I said even remotely, but whatever strawman you need to help you cope with the fact that you are incapable of owning up to the fact that you are not nearly as good as you think you are, you gigantic fucking crybaby.

You absolutely need to be an aggressive shotcaller in order to maximize your team's potential to win. Communication is key and pinging is often not enough.

>Vast majority of losses are because of dumb fucks on your own team

So you're incapable of reading huh? You may have lost because Illidan dived 1v5 at the 20 minute mark, but there were a string of mistakes you made throughout the match that put you into a position where the team easily capitalized on the advantage and swung the game. Illidan diving 1v5 was simply the straw that broke the camel's back.

Until you actually own up to the fact that you can do better, you will be forever doomed to your MMR bracket, sorry chum.

>>145306153
Anyone under 3.5k is objectively bad and most of the good players are above 4k.

>>145307140
All mobas are like this. I'm 6.6k MMR in DotA 2 and I still get feeders and retards in my game regularly. There just aren't enough good players to fill up games whenever you feel like it.

>>145313695
Then MMR is useless.

>>145313294
>you can do better excuses and justifies all of the retards you get
Tip-top logic.

>>145314762
>Then MMR is useless
No MMR is a baseline and there's probably like a 100 good players that still play the game at the very most.

Even the most "alive" MOBA which is doter still has massive match-making and player issues.

It's basically get a 5-man team or give up, like everybody else. Ever played a serious 5-man? It's a completely different game. As another anon said 1 player can and will lose you the game. No amount of carrying or being nice will change it. I think this is why people don't take these games seriously as far as team games and e-sports go.

>>145307140
I asked myself the same thing, and it's been way more frustrating than rewarding to play Hots for me lately so I don't play as much as I used to. The feels of hopelessness and 'what have i done to deserve this team' are way higher than any other game I've played and there's not much you can do.

This game is dead to me until summer ends. These kids are way too annoying.

At least before on weekdays I'd get semi competent teammates with the occasional retard here and there, but EVERY fucking game I'm in now is decided by which side has less kids to babysit.

Because Xul start out with 5 abilities while everyone else has to start with 4. Then he gets to pick between two great ultimates. Then at 20 he gets another ability in the form of a high-damage skillshot.

Xul isn't powerful just because, it's because Blizzard loaded him down with a huge kit no other hero can even dream of.

Why does HotS get cooler skins than Overwatch? Is it because they are smaller/simpler?

>>145329942
They have more freedom as they don't influence gameplay nearly as heavily.

>>145330013
How do Overwatch skins influence it, then? They have the same skeletal animations and all.

>>145330130
Because it is a shooter rather than a MOBA, the ability to quickly distinguish what character you are seeing is more important.

In HOTS, you can't change characters mid game. OW is faster paced as well, so even a few seconds of confusion is more likely to hurt than in HOTS.

>>145330308
Ah, okay, I get what you mean. However, I still think OW's skins are either lame or odd, their themes especially. Nothing seems to match anything. After HotS's fun skins, I'm guess I'm somewhat disappointed in them. You'd think some kind of middle ground could be achieved...

>>145330665
True. I wish there were slightly less joke skins overall in OW, but I like most of them.

Well forced 50 isn't even trying to be inconspicuous any more.

I keep picking more and more obscure heroes and still get mirror'd every time.

Is it time to move to ranked?

Just wait 2 days for unranked draft senpai

>>145364927
Is that seriously coming?

Honestly the ranked part doesn't bother me though since hidden mmr is already a thing. It's the "i like to play un-meta heroes and don't want to have to counterpick" thing.

I don't even own 90% of the OP heroes despite having unlocked half the roster.

>>145364332
Whatever you do, just be polite. You don't want 4 angry kids reporting you because you didn't pick one of the 10 obligatory heroes.

I get this a lot, but as long as you don't respond blizzard's automatic ban wont do anything. I have dozens of games with angry betas reporting me all at once and trash talking, then I just say "Sorry I'm still learning" or "I'll give my best" only when they accuse me of trolling, you can play whatever hero without consequences :^)

I pick nova/butcher/murky every time and I win more than half of the games while I sit back to enjoy everyone getting upset lol :^)

unranked draft is useless if it doesn't replace QM

Forced 50 is only a thing if you play in QM with abslute retards

Besides you should get competitive at games you enjoy not games that are popular otherwise you'll hate it.

Can someone explain to me the exact steps for idling for leveling?

>>145381313
Start a training game
idle
it's that fucking easy

You won't be able to do it come tuesday onward.

>>145381313
After tomorrow you won't be able to, but just go into training mode and afk, the end. The bot win like 99% of the time, and you get about as much xp as you would vs ai.

why does sonya counter illidan

>>145382976
Illiderp is best at countering bursty heroes due to flipping all over and going dodgemode for a little bit, combined with built in sustain to keep him going.
Skillidan can't deal with someone with better sustain, which Sonya has. Sonya will trade blows with him, but if she took War Paint (which has an 80% pick rate in diamond/masters on hotdogs) then she will outlast him with her greater health pool and periodic Slamming.

>>145382976
The vast majority of Sonya's damage is through slam, and a large portion of illidan's survivability is against autos. Sonya ignores evasion and reflexive block almost entirely.

>>145383472
This is almost entirely false. Sonya doesn't have better sustained healing than Illidan, she just does way more damage than him and has a bigger health pool.

life is only worth living if you're a winner am I right?
dont bother the losers is this thread dont understand

>>145384153
> winner irl
> playing HotS

Pick one and only one.

>sonya master portrait is based off this

>>145384065
You don't play with or against Sonya much if you think her autoattacks are negligible. Focused Attack has an 80% pick rate as well, thanks to how excellently it meshes with War Paint. And the most picked talent for her 7th level? Ferocious Healing, bolstering her sustain ever further. (After that, Follow Through, which yet again ramps her autoattacks.) Modern Sonya play is all about balancing her autoattacks between Slams.
And yet all her Slam talents are minimal in pick rates.

She doesn't have out and out "better" sustained healing than Illidan, but Illidan's health pool is significantly lesser, so when they swing back and forth he's still gonna be depleted first.

Ded gaem?

>>145384065
>>145384525
Well I can see that I struck a nerve

I didn't know "the minutia of how exactly Sonya's mechanics counter those of Dong's" was such a hot button issue for you guys.

>>145384525
Obviously her aas aren't negligible, but what I'm saying is that the vast majority of her damage is through slam, and that she doesn't need aas to fight illidan outside of building fury. Even untalented (and even without wrath), slam does a fuckton. Yes, she has healing talents, but that's not the main reason she shreds Illidan. Even then, her healing and sustain compared to Illidan would only matter in a 1v1 situation, which rarely happens in this game. Sonya counters Illidan because when Illidan dives into her team and pops evasion, Sonya can tell him to fuck off and take half his health in 2 seconds regardless of his defensive talents and abilities.

>>145384793
I'm kinda tired and cranky, I guess. Plus something about the way in which he's citing talent pick rates is rubbing me the wrong way and giving off the impression that he hasn't actually experienced the matchup much ingame. Whatever, it literally doesn't matter who's right at the end of the day. It's not even that important. Illidan eats shit to Sonya and that's that. I'm gonna go pass out now.

>>145385437
The principle of the matter from my perspective is that Illidan specializes in whittling fools down while they can't do anything about it. Your point is that she can do stuff about it (Evasion doesn't deal with Slam) while I lean more towards that she's also not really easy to whittle down (many strong sustain focused abilities).

how many games do i need to have uploaded on hotslogs to see my MMR?

>>145389287

>45 Hero league
>74 total (HL/QM)

Displays the MMR of both, individually. I think it can just take a little while to calculate, if you only recently uploaded, or whatever.

Also I wouldn't pay too much attention to early MMR, as it goes a little crazy. Shot up to rank 1 on my third smurf but I'm still hovering around 3-5 on "main".

Still need to do 7 placement matches for TL.

How long do I have? 1 day? 12 hours?

>>145389665
Probably like 20 hours

>>145389082
Seems about right.
