>>168177112
Now that I think about it, I fucking hate Rexxar's Unleash the Boars.
What the fuck is the purpose of that ultimate, honestly? Almost every ult is gamechanging, but his is straight up laughable.

>>168177370
Boars are very strong anon. Super short cooldown, a bit of dmg and more importantly a 40% slow for 5seconds.

And they hit everything, the range on it is amazing and they always hit.

>>168177692
Actually, I realized the upgrade on level 20 where boars roots people. That's pretty good if so. I retract from saying that.
Do you always go the root or Frenzy? It might be also situational since you can always have a team that's already really good at engaging or at CCing easily.

>>168178168
Situational, I go wrath when I feel like I can stick my bear on a backline without it dying. If my bear gets bursted easily I take boars.

And yeah the 20 upgrade is insanely strong.

>>168178168
>>168178447
General guideline is probably.
Q build you go boars
W build you go wrath

>Get Abathur on your team lose.

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>168189980
just one of those maps where one team seems to have no clue what to do and the other is try hard as fug

>>168188658
as long as we're deleting maps can you remove snowball bay

>>168189980
Warhead seems fucking weird. The map is huge for a collection type objective, they spawn a shit ton of nukes, and unless you ambush the dude with the nuke basically there's no way to stop it because the cast time is super short (and again, the map is huge)

I don't really get the map. It has two bosses as well, so I feel like they were all "lets design a huge map but also do our best to make it go super quick"

>>168191293
The lack of counter play when someone decides to nuke you sucks. Should channel a bit longer and channel breaks when taking damage

last two picks troll and pick murky/gazlowe. why can't these memers stay in QM. what's worse is they didn't even prepick 'em

>duo queue feeds intentionally
>lel we are le epic troles! u guys mad??

Okay, do they honestly think this? Secondly why is this the second time this has happened to me in 24 hours

is this game stressful to play solo?

>>168186305
I really hope if they do put Tosh in the game they find something else for him to do other than be another stealth assassin.

Y'know, the way they randomly gave Tychus a minigun?

>>168194001
Tychus uses a minigun in Wings of Liberty.

>>168194302
Not really, level 5 is quick. Anything above it is mostly pointless and just extra for playing your favorite heroes

>>168194495
Disco Medivh skin when?
His bubble would be a disco ball.

I don't understand the whole "levelling heroes takes too long" What do you want? Levelling to 5 is very quick. 9 is for all skins and 10 for master skin. 10 is like what, 40-50 games? Purely optional that just unlocks availability for master skin. Then what do you get at 20--in a sense of who cares if you're 20? No one cares if you're level 10, 13, 16, 19 or 20. I'd hate to keep playing a hero that's maxed level, though--unless the end rewards were insane, like an awesome skin.

>>168195562
that's 16 hours of one hero though, just for a master skin

>>168195780
Entirely optional.

>>168195562
Because they nerfed the xp you get for leveling if you are playing solo. You used to get more.

>>168195780
And?
I have level 20 Abathur with ~500 games played. Maybe you don't deserve whatever level you want if you don't even play the game

10k gold, who should i get

Zul'jin
Auriel
Chromie

>>168199647
Auriel is the best of the three, but just get whoever you like to play the most.

>>168189838
>>168190198
>losing to Cho'Gall
>ever
lmao'ing @ u

>>168199647
Chromie and Zul'Jin are too situational to be worth 10k.

>>168194001
I did imagine Tosh to be a specialist that uses stealth for CC and not damage. But Valeera is in already and she does both. He would also steal camps, which they gave to Nova. So my Tosh is dead, Blizz do with him whatever, I only care for Mengsk and Stukov now.

>>168203130
I just want Chromie for the Fel Queen skin ;)

>>168173418
Despite what >>168173582 says, 2CP maps like Volskaya Industries, Hanamiura, and Temple of Anubis are hated not because they are easy to stall, but because it is easy to bulldoze through them with a divecomp no matter how hard you try.

Shitter leagues hate them because they pick stupid shit and can't aim so one person playing a projectile hero can dunk on the entire team all game (because they also keep insisting on funneling through the chokepoints one by one instead of taking a flanking route or switching to a divecomp in competitive), and higher leagues hate it because it's effectively a coin/toss of who wins in a landslide stomp.


I personally don't hate 2CP maps as much as Dorado and Lijiang Tower though. Something about those two just tilt me to no tomorrow and I have an effective winrate of like 10% on those maps no matter how hard I try to not lose or not tilt.

I don't really see any of them turning into a HotS map though. Anything that's not a KotH map isn't symmetrical already, and even if they were changed to fit, I don't see how they'd be converted from "capture the points / escort the payload" to "push towers -> destroy the core". There's no UT style Onslaught mode so I don't know how you'd get any of that from Overwatch.

>>168203323
If you're going to buy a skin, why spend gold on the hero? Doesn't that skin come with her in a bundle or am I thinking of something else?

Tychus
>>168188658
Funny thing is, each game having a ragnaros adds an extra 5 least 10 max minutes to your average game timer
>>168194001
Tychus always have had minigun, and if stealth bothers you much; pick your combo around furion, morales, tassadar, raynor. Scouting drones just shit on these plebs faces.

>>168207092
in all the ingame cinematics he uses a rifle as well as rendered cinematics its only on one mission he has a minigun.
Giving him the laser drill is a bit strange considering its Swans meaning we will never see him as a hero

>>168207763
In a fucked up lore like starcraft which is a manifestation of Blizzard's femdom-giantess fetish over kerrigan; tychus cinematics and origins of Drakken drill bothers you?

When did you discover that you can avoid ring of frost completely by standing in the middle of the ring?

Only when you're in shitter leagues, understand exactly what everyone around you is doing wrong, but still not good enough to carry yourself out of non-shitter leagues.

>4 of us go to turn-in
I don't get why pubs insist one distributing the coins amongst everyone.

And then lose them all one by one because they're too afraid to engage but hang around until the enemy gets better positioning.

Stick it all on one guy with high mobility, if you're going to get denied turn-in opportunity, at least don't feed them coins.

I hate to give bland advice like this but Rexxar is literally the kind of character who you'll get good at just by playing him more and more. Once you learn how to micro your bear and learn the useful things it can do for you (hold a point, harass at range, or just scout), you'll get better.

Also take Unleash the Boars

You don't need wave. Just Core up and fuck the zerg up with your standard abilities, pick Smash instead.

Only pick wave on stuff like Tomb or Cursed to counter objective pushes a bit, since both will make one lane a non-issue to defend.

>>168252659
I'm pretty much in the same boat. I just buy whatever I feel like.

1. Starcraft heroes
2. Whatever cheaper hero I liked in free week. Heroes like ETC and Valla are solid regardless.

From the ones you named I'd get Ragnaros. I love globals.

The shield build is legit' sometimes. Abathur's talents are the most dependant out of every hero. You shouldn't go shield build every single game. However as >>168256582
>>168256858 have pointed out, networked carapace and hivemind together is pretty silly. A lot of wasted value.

I'd personally go for http://www.heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/abathur#olNo if I'm going shield. 7 is open and I feel that everybody underestimates MULE an awful lot.

Looks good, but how much team fight potential do you lose?

Note that whenever you have a good autoattacker to hat you take Ardenal Overload on 4 and also you can still take Soma Transference on 13 with shield build.

>Q build
Why would you ever go with Q build now that Crippling Talons has to compete with Aspect of the Beast?

I'm legitimately asking, because it seems like Aspect of the Beast would be better in every single situation, making it always better to build around your W.

>>168257784
Since you are a Redditor can't you post a better build so nobody listens to that subhuman?

>>168252615
no, other than in GM other people can pass your points and make you "drop" rank

>>168257883
You take Taking Flight, not Crippling Talons.

Q build has a better a better dmg output and you aren't reliant on your bear. When you can't safely stick Misha on their backline it's better to take Q build and hit their melees.

Also a 30% 2s slow on a 5s cd and better poke.

>>168258350
tfw they aren't releasing heros fast enough
2 heroes a month when

>>168257883
You would be right Aspect of the Beast and Dire Beast are way better. It offers really good CC and the new lvl13 talent that adds damage to the stun is really good.

If anybody is seriously recommending a q build don't listen to them. The only one worth taking is the lvl 1 talent and even then that's not all the time.

I think they're saving this for the whole loot box/loot tab they're almost certainly doing.

I'd have been okay with a loot box thing if they had gone the way of DotA2 and had individual items instead of skins.

>>168258879
Yesterday I saw them taking Aspect of the Beast an Dire Beast when I saw him getting played

>>168259252
I think what they're going to end up doing is a bunch of new skin tints for every hero that you can only get out of boxes in addition to a chance of getting portraits, a pay skin, or a hero out of a box.

The more I lok at Lucio Master skin the more I like it.
I thought it'd be retro sci-fi shit like Tracer and Zarya had but his is real streamlined.

Hammers ult doesn't count because it's more like the same spell being cast multiple times.
Illidan at 20 gives him the cc reduction and attack speed boost passively, but the health boost is still only per cast.

I meant more along the lines of a spell that doesn't stop dealing damage until there's no more enemies, not an attack damage boost.

>Hammers ult doesn't count because it's more like the same spell being cast multiple times.
Hammer ult refreshes itself every time it leaves the map.

Lich's Aghs ult from Dota 2, e.g. from the pic posted in >>168265806, does the same thing with every bounce.

What's the difference?
The post was talking about ults that last forever. BFG lasts forever.

>I meant more along the lines of a spell that doesn't stop dealing damage until there's no more enemies, not an attack damage boost.
So like Tychus' minigun. Usually you'd see duration increases for non-ultimate skills and traits, not ults. Ults in those cases are temporary damage/cc boosts to ongoing DPS, not the other way around.

>>168266993
so something like chromie`s sands but dealing damage? otherwise it would just be some debuff to the enemies health regen if it is global or something, and no fucking way it would be some kind of permanent poison

>>168268003
So
Chromie
Illidan
Tassadar
Hammer
Sonya

and then Murky tomorrow?

Six in total who have permanent ults.

>>168266938
Wait, 20 March of Murloc will be infinite? Damn.
"Never-Ending Murlocs (R)
Redesigned: March of the Murlocs can now be channeled indefinitely"

Well it's a channelled effect at least unlike Hammer bullshit bullet.

Reinhard could be a good new tool kit in HOTS. A Hero who can put a giant shield could be pretty interesting. But would it block melee hits, unlike Overwatch?

>>168269437
Given how much work the HotS put in during a single year I don't expect to see him until 2020, assuming this game still managed to cling to life that long.

>>168269039
Monstrosity
Nydus
Polybomb kinda sorta
Illusion master
Twin blades :v)

>>168182893
I want to call Sonya a very pretty lady and watch her get all flustered

>>168270280
>Monstrosity
Added body, might as well include Ultralisk at 20.

>Nydus
Kind of added body

>Polybomb
Only decent answer, I've seen this thing last for dozens of seconds in the right situations.

>Illusion master
Passive.

>Twin Blades
>taking an ult to be a bad illidan
I want to delete this ability.

>>168270456
She will beat you up.

>>168270610
>passive ultimates and "added bodies" don't count

???????????????????????????

>>168270760
I want to get beaten up after calling Sonya cute.

>>168270760
Yeah but only to save face after

Varian or Sumaro?

For consideration: I want to have fun.

>>168271856
>For consideration: I want to have fun.

Valeera

>>168271856
Varian tank build.

>>168271856
>Samuro
he has a lot of unfavorable matchups, especially since Ragnaros is still around. A lot QM games you'll have a lot of room to roam and gank. Other games you'll be completely evaporated the moment you show your face.

>Varian
100% viable in every scenario.
CC for days, versatile as hell and great damage.
Only issue is he's pretty weak until at least level 7 then picks up at 10.

>>168272037
Is Overpower/Mortal Strike still really strong on Varian?

>>168239092
I... I'm sorry, anon.

You're right where you belong.

>>168272852
They just buffed it. It's the build right now. Overpower at 1 and the parry at 7.
