Charged Blast, Canonneer is go to build for PvE, against unpeelable divers and whenever you can safely get autoattacks off.

Who's the next Overwatch character and is it Genji?

>>161697602
Hopefully there won't be another overwatch hero ever again.

Reinhardt, I hope.

>>161697602
It will be Lucio

It has come to my attention that I have a 55% winrate with Bully type characters, especially tanks. Who are the most bully characters? Because apparently I'm shit at non-bullies.

>>161698272
Bullying isn't cool.

>>161698272
E.T.C, Mura, Sonya, Arthas and Dehaka are all excellent bullies.

Anub and Diablo are also fine bullies but they're fairly weak right now so might postpone bullying with them until a later date.

>>161698272

I mean, like, Raynor can bully a lot of Heroes with that oppressive range of his.

>tracer bullies things with skillshots
>gul'dan bullies things without cc/displacements
>thrall bullies heroes without sustain
>kinky beetle bullies mages/ap
>tychus bullies health pools
>chen similar to anoob
>hammer bullies people who don't know how to deal with hammer
>chadhaka tries to bully but doesn't do damage and is just sad buff pls

Mm.

I could see them eventually adding a couple more Overwatch heroes, if only to try to draw a few people over from one of their successful games.

But then again, yeah. There are definitely fresher hero ideas elsewhere.

If you get killed 1v1 by a twin blades varian you are pretty bad, if you are losing 3v1 to a twin blades varian you are below bronze.

>>161717026
>being in this much denial
The game might not get 100% dropped as it can easily leech off the money from other titles just like how Starcraft 2 has been doing over the last decade, but that still won't change how small the playerbase is and how it's only getting smaller and smaller.

>>161716954
fuck you faggot I did my part and gave them 20 dollars just yesterday, everyone else needs to do theirs

I even have skins for characters I don't own

>>161717242
Hello, I would like to inform you that the playerbase is actually growing up steadily so please stop spreading misinformation, see you in the nexus!

>>161716954
Do you get overly attached to the games you play?

>>161717337
Anon, lying to people so they don't lose hope is not a possitive thing to do.

Would you really not care if tomorrow Blizzard did an EA and said "this game isn't printing money, so the servers are going offline before christmas"?

Why do russians call Murky 'Murchal' and why is is so funny?

I'm bored and never played this game, is it worth trying it out?
Are there cute waifus?

>>161717609
Of course I would care, but on a very serious note I highly doubt they would pull an EA-tier stunt like that because of the amount of money they pour into the esports scene (that no one really asked for). It's all about expectations for the game and company.

>>161717929
>cute waifus
If you like other Blizzard games
>is it worth trying it out
It's free to play. How about you try it out?

>>161717929
Be careful with throwing money into this game though, the game has the most expensive microtransactions in any moba at the moment.

Then again, you also only get a miserable amount of gold from playing so it'll take you literally years to unlock all characters.

>>161718584
While you're waiting for your QM queue, take a look at the talents beforehand. Don't read while you play. You'll need experience to know what talents to take, but it'll come after a while as you learn what other characters can do.
Watch the bloody minimap and keep track of who's dead.
Not dying > getting a kill most of the time, so try to avoid getting ganked.

Take a look at each character, they all have a difficulty attached to them. They're not all correct, but a good guideline, i.e. hands off the fucking vikings, Alarak and Medivh and so on.

Muradin, ETC, Thrall, Valla, Raynor, Malfurion, Uther, and Morales are all straightforward and not too difficult to play/perform well with.

>>161717929
Are you a super-casual that just wants to see Thrall and Arthas 1v1 with their super cool magic?

Are you a reject from DotA or LoL and can't last hit or learn the game well enough to know how and when to take objectives?

Do you want the game to scream at you and force you to go to a specific point on the map so the objective can win the game for you?

Do you want your own lack of skill to be dampened on the rest of your team through shared leveling so you won't seem as bad?

Sign up if you meet the criteria

(it's alright, the average skill level is atrocious though. i've almost never seen anyone do basic moba skills like walking between attacks. seriously one person out of a thousand)

>>161716954
I miss Dawngate.

That one actually had real potential but EA cut the cord.

So about this nexus challenge, does HotS had any event like this with good freebies i missed?

>>161722680
infinite crisis also had potential, it's just that no one knew it even existed.

>>161723420
War of the Machines or something had had free stimpacks for a month.

>>161723420
last year we had the cho'gall event

>>161724716

I actually like Cho'Gall occasionally but knowing they're STILL 10k and probably will be forever yet 99% of people got them for free hurts my jew-side.

Why can't they spread the cho'gall flu again this december :(

I really want to like to play this game, i've been playing it on and off since beta but goddamn does it lack high skill fun heroes

>>161728807
They have to make heroes that actually sell.

>>161722504

But LoL is casual shit too.

>>161728807
I'll have you know that Lunara is a high skill fun AND cute hero

>>161728807
You can't really go too far with a game that lacks items, anon.

>>161695518
>Originally a lewd skin edition
wait chromie was censored?

>>161730175
Then just make a hero with interesting spells, you can make Arc work in hots without items by literally just keeping how flux and his ult works
his ult spawns an illusion of himself that lasts a good amount of seconds, and it can use all of his spells and items on a seperate cooldown

>>161730415
>illusion
into le bin it goes

I would adore if a character like harley made it to the game.

>>161718584
GM here

figure out a strat and pattern that is winning games for you or the other team. figure out why its working and when it doesn't. Use/practice that hero/build/strat until you can confidently implement anytime.

move on to the next hero/build/strat.

By now you have 3 or more hero/build/strats.

based on draft/map, implement the best strats based on your past experience.

embrace the grind.

Tychus' Overkill is weird. When you select a new target with it he runs at them and it's kind of irritating. Do I need to go into quick cast settings and change something?
