Strong base kit, shit talents and ults.

>>150059520
her talents are fine, i'm pretty sure she'd be OP if her talents werent as moderate as they are right now

i agree her ults could be a little more impactful though, even blessed shield being useful as it is it feels like you're just slightly holding enemies back when compared to other tank ults

>>150055858
>He doesn't know

>>150056585

That's not anti-synergy. That would be if it actively worked against the talent, like if it made you attack slower.

Li Li is excellent in duo support comps, but she's an absolute garbage solo support. Which is really fucking annoying because being that she's 2k, in my silver games shes a really popular solo support choice, and the games can be disasterous. Pretty much all you have to do is go blessed shield johanna, chuck your shield at anyone when Li Li pops 10,000 cups and you stun her out of it 9 times out of 10. Then all she has are her shitty tyrande tier Q heal and her blinds, which for some reason all silver players just fucking lose their shit over.

You are right, Li Li can 100% off-tank a bit.
She lost her anti-CC build when they took away herbal cleanse but you can still take a skillshot to the face to save a teammate. At 20 you want to be right in it to get every AOE to tickle your butt and reset your skills.

I don't like this meme.
Li Li is a great solo support. I would rather a second DPS or bruiser over her as a second support unless it's with like Tyrande.
Getting stunned out of cups is only a problem for bad players. If she is so badly counter picked then that is a draft issue. If you are eating every stun that is a skill issue.
You know you can use cups outside of battle, right? Try it before a fight to top of everyone, or after a fight to keep pushing.
If you are losing the fight and the enemy has been holding back on using stuns and ults JUST TO STUN YOUR CUPS, you took a bad fight and are going to lose anyway.

coming back after a 4 month break, what's new

>>150087307
i like gul'dan but he's really just irredeemable garbage right now

>>150095836
Playing Gul'Dan has taught me to be really fucking careful because you can't afford mistakes. Playing him should be mandatory until the game recognizes you have learnt positioning, disengaging and not overextending.

Also he shits out damage like nobody's business.

>>150084084
>and the enemy has been holding back on using stuns and ults JUST TO STUN YOUR CUPS
You say it like that would be a weird thing to do, when in reality any decent player is literally going to do exactly that. If you knock a solo support Li Li out of cups the teamfight is over, you won. So it isnt uncommon AT ALL for a thrall to hold on to sundering or a jo to hold on to blessed shield until she sees your dumb fucking "PLEASE STUN ME ASAP" cups ulti.

Li Li is so fucking bad as a solo support.

So, this game is pretty dead. I've decided to officially transition to a new game.

Like, yea this game is fucking dead and the player base skill level seems to be degrading to the point where I'm wondering if I'm playing with Brazilians.

i really like the game, but, I don't think that matters. These generals are up for days in a row without even coming near the post limit.

back to DoTA? I feel like I'm too late for League. Smite seems like a whole batch of new shit.

I just want a MoBA with matches that aren't a fucking hour long.

>>150096714
only problem is that other assassins already have bypasses to the whole issue of learning positioning, disengaging and not overextending in the form of dashes or teleports

not to mention the fact that his damage is still outclassed by other mages like KT and li

i truly wish i could like him but then again the development team for hots is kind of just shitting out heroes to keep interest for the game without actually making them mechanically sound

>>150098049
You say "outclassed by KT and Li Ming" like those 2 don't have extremely overblown damage output. Anyone's gonna look bad compared to them.

>>150098160
gul'dan's a mage so i don't see why he shouldn't be compared to heroes with the same classification as him

barring that even, why shouldn't he be compared to the two best damage dealers in the game if you claim that he shits out damage like nobody's business?

Because he, unlike KT and Ming, isn't a brokenly OP piece of shit. He's like Jaina.

>inb4 le jaina is trash tier memeboys

>>150098443
>Ming
>High Skill cap

Where did they get this meme

Here is how you play Ming. Step one. approach fight at 45 degree angle so you can hit backline/multiple things. Throw purple shit at back line, it doesn't really matter if you miss, your cool downs are low as shit. If someone attacks you, good news, they have over extended most likely because you shoot from far away. Teleport out if needed or just teleport/shield fuck there face and heal when they die.

Alternately, approach team fight in a position that is normally over extended, but be close enough to literally any piece of terrain to teleport over it.

>>150099064
Read the post again. I literally said the exact opposite of "high skill cap", i.e. "low skill floor". That is what I meant. Learn to play with Ming, and you're gonna be shit at every other hero because of how powerful and easy to play she is. Learn to play with Gul and you're gonna get good at every other hero (apart from meme heroes like Murky) because of how careful you have to be.

>>150098443
>intentionally gimping yourself by playing a sub-par hero =/= learning how to play the game any faster
people are going to pick up on their mistakes and how to fix them
playing a hero that's brutally difficult to play properly right off the bat is not going to accelerate that process in any meaningful way
>>150098870
i'd argue that jaina's superior because she actually has range and a lot more utility than gul'dan
i still see jaina in my games at least; gone 30 HL games without seeing a single gul'dan

Rhegar is decently awesome. Morales can be stupid. Monk bro is fun but it's rare that you actually feel the effect of your abilities. Li Li is perfect for any night that you don't want to actually play the video game and alt tab through a quarter of it and still pull out enough influential healing to have everyone suck the dick of your hips. Or to just pay attention to the vibrator, take your pick.

>>150104351
>he'll kill one major horde/alliance character
So basically Sylvanas or Jaina since there's nobody relevant left at this point. I mean Thrall is immune to death, Varian dies earlier, Anduin is still needed for future stuff, Vol'jin dies also and Loth'remar, Baine, Gallywix and the three Dwarfs are so irrelevant nobody would even care if any of them died.

Do we know who will end up killing Gul'dan by now?
I mean the 25 murderhobos will surely help but one the main characters is surely going to kill him in a cinematic.

Also any chances of Gul'dan killing Thrall?

>>150105662
Thrall is involved in the quest for Doomhammer, then he says the Enha Shaman player "gl hf" and goes in hiding somewhere to fuck his wife for the rest of the expansion. At least that's what we know for now.

I don't know if we need a NPC to kill Gul'Dan in a cinematic. For people like Kael' Thas, Kil'Jaeden or Zul'Jin we were enough.

Chromie is fun but the last 2 times i've picked her in quick play I've somehow gotten a team with zero warriors and have basically just unavoidably died whenever an enemy assassin saw me.

Why does the matchmaking system even do this.

that's a different, wrong dragon knight from a not-dead game

>>150127563
Absolutely no changes to his base abilities or talents that affect base abilities enough, much like the Gazlowe and Nova reworks. When a hero is bad purely because of their kit setup after being powercreeped the fuck out, they need to do more than just give them like 3 or 4 new talents, of which only 1-2 will be great.

>>150127909
Same here. i can't imagine what could possibly make him not terrible, but I can't manage to kill hope that Blizz would whip out a miracle and make him viable while keeping him being his fun himself.

>>150127563

Heroes never die!

What the better build on Gul'dan?
Fel Flame, Life steel or corruption?
Also how to use fear properly, I seem to suck with it quite bad compared to rain of destruction.

>>150038436

Is Gul'Dan the most BORING hero release since... forever? Even Chromie feels more fun thanks to her godlike damage. Gul just feels like a wet noodle all around. There is no impact to his skills.

>>150175967
His AOE heroic is pretty nice at lvl 20 desu and sucking out life is okay.
But I have to say that fel flame and corruption feel rather underwhelming.

>>150176097
His aoe heroic is shit

>>150177002
But muh 90% slow at lvl 20...

>>150177109
IF it ever hits. Which it never does because hurr durr random damage that doesn't even tell YOU where it's gonna land.

>>150177448
>>150177109
The level 20 talent for rain is fucking terrible anyway.

When does this lame ranked season end?

>>150176097

The fear one is something, the other is trash. Still, one skill (that even so, I think is garbage) doesn't justify the other 2 being so BORING. I don't see Gul'Dan being on competitive ever >competitive or a better pick than any other assassin. He doesn't have a spot.

And people fucking cried for him for MONTHS.

>>150177842
I cried for him for month and basically I'm just happy to see him in the game but he's quite underwhelming.
I wish corruption was a bit better. I mean warlocks specialise in debuffs and damage over time spells yet Gul'dan is pretty bad at those. Both heroics are also kinda bad imho.

Also it kinda feels like he's wrongly classified as an assassin. He feels way more like a specialist desu.

>tfw we won't have a proper warlock until Wilfred Fizzlebang is added

>>150127563
Butcher doesn't need much to be good, the problem is that he lacks a good baseline shit to help him and his talents are either really obvious or trash.

Why don't meatstacks heal him by default? Why would you have a bloated talent like abattior instead of making some of that baseline?
Why does lamb have a one second delay and why doesn't it just prioritize the hero you last attacked instead of the nearest?

Why does butchers brand have such a weird and annoyingly inconsistent range? Make it longer so it feels more fluid.

Why do his basic abilities need to do pitifully low damage just because his base attacks 'potentially', will do a lot of damage?


I play Butcher a ton, and I'm 100% sure Blizzard is going to ruin him completely(either making him too strong and nerfing him after or not fixing anything at all like Gaz) instead of just not limiting his kit.

No. The internet largely is--it isn't just HotS. We're in an age of weakness and snowflakeism AKA the "me me me!" time.

>>150187069
I'm completely ok with no in-built voice chat, same with League.

Tried that with Dota 2 for one game and immediately turned that shit off. I'm not going to sit there for 30 minutes listening to someone screaming at full volume to the point where fucking nobody can understand a word he's saying, while another guy sounds like he's trying to eat his microphone.

>>150187686
A few people doesn't make up everybody, or even the majority. Also just because you don't like it doesn't mean everybody else shouldn't be able to have it.

>>150187016
dont you sometimes notice how no one responds to you after you say something? most of the playerbase has all chat muted because they dont want to face criticism, so most of the time you cant even communicate

>>150188129
>most of the playerbase has all chat muted
I don't think that's true unless at very low mmr. In my experience in all online games, text chat demands much more energy for anyone to bother replying at what you said. With voice however on many other games I've had memorable moments, from laughing at some dumb shit someone else did to getting hyped while on a comeback with some randoms and I've never had any significant abuse happen on voice ( most ragers just blurt their shit in text as mean to blow off steam)

Did they break Gul'dan?
For some reason he doesn't react to poking at all unless you hammer him with left clicks.
Why Blizzard hate Green Satan so much?

>>150188497
Same experience here mostly. Most of the autistic ragers don't talk, because they're kids. Voice chat usually leads to people being more sympathetic, because you realize you're playing with others just like you.

>>150187686
Dota is an exception since 99% of the time they speak broken english in some heavy accent. I mute that shit too.

Affliction is the one true Master Spec.

>>150175967
they made a brawler in a team brawling game basically. you might love him if you could flank and melt people 1v1, instead you need some other dumbass to help you do anything. no big boom, no mobility, awkward heroics. he has nothing cool unless you like grinding games out with sustain.

>>150178708
calling him a specialist would probably help the retards drafting but he's more of a dps assassin. even then there's only so much you can do for people that complain about li ming "spaming" spells (she's also leans toward dps style because no CC + easy dodge) or don't understand how to build a team.

>>150187686
there's a difference between being okay with it not being and downvoting like crazy it every time it comes up. people get run over for mentioning it almost every time i see it on almost any forum for this game. ridiculous attitudes over what should be a basic feature.

>>150196729
Sad thing is, the bnet voice chat is totally worthless, since we can only use it with other people who have the alpha, which practically nobody does.

See if you're good with Leo or not, Anub offers more utility imo.

>>150217243
but that's the point i'm trying to make, someone was complaining about the oversaturation of warcraft heroes, but i see it's because there's far more prominent heroes in warcraft than the other series

more prominent figures = more hype or expectations behind them, more people wanting them in in the first place

you can't say Mengsk would have the same hype and expectations as, I dunno, Thrall, can you?

>>150217550
>you can't say Mengsk would have the same hype and expectations as, I dunno, Thrall, can you?
maybe not, but that's almost entirely because warcraft 1-3 and WoW have been blizzard's flagship games for a good amount of time now

even for me, a guy who's played through all of the warcraft games and plays WoW religiously every expansion, the constant influx of warcraft heroes has become a bit tiring

pair that along with the untapped potential from delving into starcraft/diablo heroes and you can understand where i'm coming from

>it's another Kael'thas rebalance

which heroes have a >high skill cap?
i'm standing at 90% winrate with Falstad in HL, surely there must be other heroes to get good at

>>150215309
Better be soon, she is the only one who can save this game.

>>150226323
anything else relative to falstad

>kael slips through bans and our team first picks him
>spends the whole game trying to solo camps during team fights

So does chromie suck or something. She's the closest thing to veigar but I hear she is meh. If I want to be one shotting people who should I play?

>>150228859
She's not easy to play since her skillshots have such a delay, but she does have long range.
So try her on a free week and see if you like her style, which is hard to learn and even harder to master.

>>150228859
play with teammates who have real disables

your time loot ult lets you get one (1) guaranteed combo off without outside help, once every 70 seconds

but outside of that you have to land skillshots and/or rely on stuns from teammates

you pretty much instantly kill anyone who gets caught in nazeebo or leoric's wall

>>150228859
She sucks as much as veigar, so you'll be fine.

Graven Hill on HotS... FUCKING WHEN.

We had enough Warcraft heroes, all these >muh troll! >muhieve! should be buried beneath hell.

He could, dunno, be a fucking Hellbat and go full mecha on battles, or be a Marauder being the true king of mercenaries with a slow mo ult with him accommodating his glasses like BAMF.

So many possibilities, and we got the goddamn green Gargamel with the most boring kit EVER.

>>150228859
i think she is pretty good and super fun when you have the right (enemy)team for her. i got a 60% winrate in unranked

>>150233761
>killing shitters 10 seconds after they got scared away from you and stepped in all three of your fun circles
>boring

speak for yourself, it makes me giggle every time I hear that satisfying DING after I've already disengaged

>>150234625

Mate, it's universally accepted that Gul'Dan have the most boring skills on the whole game. There is no impact to them, and trying to justify him just for ONE of his ultimates is just grasping for justification. They could have made him more exciting, but yeah, no, they didn't, and now he sits there, in a corner, forever forgotten.

I don't see any situation where he is a better pick than, lets say, Lunara if you want DOT, or any fucking mage when you need burst (that he doesn't have.) Hell, if you want ranged damage just go with Jimmy. He does shit, he IS shit.

>>150235105
I meant his E and I realize I'm probably the only one who gets any fun out of it

No need to get upset

Why is Li Li + Diablo so popular?

>>150236190
Because the contrast of tiny cartoon panda who heals people by giving them little sips of tea/beer and Big Yaoi Devil Dragon that slams face first into everything looks goofy. Also because Li Li has 0 synergy with Diablo.

I'm sorry, wut?
She works great with the big D

>>150237642
No Li Li I have ever played with as Diablo has done her job well, so maybe I'm biased

Anyone have the image of Genn wearing the "Gilneas Will Rise Again" Trump style hat?

>>150237784
to be fair, lili is like the default support that most people go to if they're forced to play support and they can't really do anything else

they just think "oh, i'll just press q now and then", and that's really it

How often do heroes go down in price? Like Kael just went from 10k to 7k.

As long as you can lose full points AND get negative rank adjustment if one player on your team obviously feeds and throws the game, HL will remain a joke. Getting to Diamond is luck and getting to Masters/Grandmasters is 100% grinding after you lucked into Diamond.

Only TL Rank is a reliable indicator for someone's skill at this game.

>>150243901

So someone can be a shitter and pay for a TL carry and that's a reliable indicator they're good?

>>150243901
>Only TL Rank is a reliable indicator for someone's skill at this game.

are you ok?

>game mode that so few people play that you get paired with literal bronze one game and grand masters next game is a valid indicator of skill

>>150244231
More so than a rank that can be fucked up by getting a random feeder 3 times in a row.

>>150244365
>spot the shitter who was placed at HL Dia3 and never played ranked again after it

>>150244495

>More so than a rank that can be fucked up by getting a random feeder 3 times in a row.

Being more than unreliable is still unreliable. Your point sucks and you're obviously some crybaby shitter.
