"Dude youre really bad at valeera, you really dont want to be splitpushing, but using early aggression with CC to get us early fight advantages, even if you cant outright kill people you can get them low inside your combo so they cannot follow up for objectives and we win by pressure. All you did earlygame was try and splitpush which got you killed."

>>170615229

Obviously Maiev.

Remake:
Nova (shes dogpiss)
Tyrande (dogpiss #2)

MekkaTorque in giant robot suit.

Male Barbarian because hes fucking iconic.

Deckard Cain - Specialist

Firebat hero.

Zergling Hero that starts out super weak but "evolves" but has a fuckton of quest talents which if he completes "evolves enough" it becomes one of the hardest and fastest carries in the game.

WidowMaker.

Anybody else notice some weird matchmaking lately? I've had an overall win % of 53, but for 3 straight days now I've lost every single match. I get mates that don't lane, healers that try to solo engage, the works. Coincidentally, it's been 3 days since my stimpack expired...

>>170621983
They changed matchmaking in QM to be much more loose. You get people with over 1k difference in MMR in the same teams

Why is Johanna so flat? Do you think she's insecure?

>>170628719
You don't get banned in hots for botting in wow right?

>>170627080
no turret talents after level 7

>>170628827

>>170628795
no

>>170628762

>>170626710
Before release? Zero chance
6 months from now? Maybe

>>170628827
They don't prioritize heroes, that's the biggest problem.

>>170628920
Collect minerals, at 70 turrest have 25% more damage, reveal and can look over obstacles.

CD gets reduced by 1.25 seconds every time a hero gets hit by turrets.

That's all of them.

>>170628975
>huge chestplate
It doesn't look big at all, like it's hugging her torso

>>170629063
>Doesn't know how chestplates work outside of anime

>>170629542
Nigga real life chestplates are wide on the chest for deflecting blows and stop piercing weapons before they reach the wearer's chest. They also have more than enough room to house boobs, I'd imagine it'd hurt like fuck for women to wear armor that squashes their boobs. There, that's how they work.

I don't think Johanna is using one.

>>170629901
isnt there a video on youtube that shows why boob shaped armor is a bad idea?

>>170629976
>>170629901
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF-5ryUHAHA

>>170629976
Boob-shaped armor deflects blows straight into the sternum, hence why they suck, yeah.

That wasn't my point though. Thing is, Johanna doesn't seem to be using chest armor at all, just clothing. She's pretty much flat

I really like Valeera's design except for the stupid fucking shoulder pads.
I know it's silly to complain about shoulder pads when talking about a WoW character but still, she would look so much better without them.

KT will actually be a core replacer hero who sits in a necropolis hovering over the core and can temporarily deploy Naxx bosses to harass the enemy team.

>>170628795
Nope.

>tfw all my friends botting on multiple accounts for years rarely ever running into issues, just setting up new accounts if they do

>when your team throws harder than tensai

>>170633058
There is no map more fun to snowball on than Blackhearts bay. If you look at Faye's stream last night I played a game with it and we had like 50 coins

Man, I was really interested in a probe hero but he looks so boring to play. The W+Q combo is all he has and his talents are so shitty.
You can't do anything with unstable rift on its own until level 16, so before then it only exists to do combo damage like if you could see Chromie's dragonbreath before it lands. Pylons don't do anything but give you mana unless you take the ult or the aura buffs at 13. They're both on shitty boring lunara whisp talent tiers where you can pick one and that's it for the whole game.
And a turret that doesn't attack heroes above anything else is seriously lame. It already has twice as many ways be killed compared to a normal turret/summon and the spell armor talent doesn't even affect itself so it will die at random against any team with AoE. It's really sad that none of your talents even make it better at fighting but just buffs for yourself instead.

OFFICIAL MAP TIER LIST

>Great tier
Dragon Shire, Infernal Shrines

Tomb of the Spider Queen, Braxis Holdout, Towers of Doom

>OK tier

Rate. Any heroes I need?

>>170633710
Haunted mines is absolutely shit tier. It's almost impossible to come back from anything when your team is behind and since it has the sappers from Towers of Doom it only takes a second for the team with an advantage to build that advantage even further with a huge exp boost for ruining your structures. The golem isn't even that strong once you get it. If the losing team manages to get a 100 skull golem for whatever reason it might last long enough to get a fort and the next gate.

I'd say Leoric but since he's at level one I take it you are not really interested.

Chromie, maybe?

He is a fucking fag.

>>170634338
I don't think I've been playing during a leoric free week. You're right though I don't really care for playing 3/4ths of these heroes. I just want to play Rehgar and Valla in ranked.
I'll try to get everyone to 5 for that gold though

i still cling on to the hope that theyll make kael like he was in warcraft 3, where his nova spell actually felt and sounded like fucking flames coming down from the sky, it was my favorite effect ever and instead you get a shitty burst spell that doesnt even feel like fire

>>170633090
"kys" get cancer fuck you generic passive-aggressive moba faggot >:(

>>170633710
Place Warhead junction and blackhearts bay together with cursed hollow on God Tier and move Dragon Shire down to shit tier because it fucking sucks dick it is so dull

:)

>>170634727
I'm sure it's probably for readability reasons or something like that, but it really is unsatisfying, and empowering it just makes it look worse. Like some kinda weird updraft rather than a pillar of flame.

>>170635170
I dislike any map that doesn't have a boss. I feel like they're outdated and dull. I'll even take the crappy sand boss that deals 0 damage

>>170634064
Dehaka is good, Kerri is good with/into specific comps. Artanis is really good. Sylvanas and Chromie are also played

>>170635517
I wish the other bosses were even half as good as Warhead Junction's, or even 1/4 as much of a team based objective as Braxis.

>>170636010
I also hate maps that "enables" Vikings to play their shitty hero. I've never lost to a Vikings in ranked, and I've only lost with them

>>170614923
Do we expect anything from Pax East?

>>170615229
From what I see, the top 10 requested heroes (besides Maiev, in no order) are:

>Kel'Thuzad
>Deckard Cain
>Reinhardt
>Blackthorne
>Tosh
>Artcurus Mengsk
>Lei Shen
>Velen
>Mekkatorque
>Malthael

His encounter is really well regarded. One of the best of any WoW xpac.

Also, he would serve as being a "WoW" character and another raid boss rep ala Ragnaros.

I just hate that they gutted his durability for dash swapping. He was my favorite hero to play before the changes. Walking in and shitting out shields all over the place was some of the most fun I've had. Now his shields are made of tin foil and have a longer cd that you need to cut through. The bonus shield at 25% hp doesn't help since you're likely to busted down before you can even get the shield off.

>>170634064

It's Platinum in solo queue for the mount, or Bronze in Team League.

>>170652626
Just heal him. His passive isn't as important as you'd think it is, it's pretty much only there to accomodate Taz'Dingo and those times where he's able to weave in and out in the backline without being in danger of being jumped.

>>170653008
did i stutter?

>>170652626
Heal him unless there is literally no chance of the enemy being there. (For instance rushing boss when they show bottom or racing immo when they're all down)

He has more health than most ranged carries so if other people need it they can get heals first. But zul has a way to hurt himself so if your zuljin has some autistic health percent that he gets mad at you for healing past just remind him that z exists and to be more aggressive.

If zul is having trouble getting to low health then he's playing wayyy too passive or you're winning really hard.

Eh, sort of. Games played is definitely a factor, but if somebody has 800 matches in Silver I'm going to go out on a limb and say they aren't playing flawlessly.

Anyways, it's all about getting better individually. Adapting. Playing around teammates misplays, punishing enemy misplays, whatever. Win or loss try to make the most of it.

>>170663519
Oh, I see. How low, exactly? Didn't play many between Silver and Platinum but I do recall more than a few tantrums being thrown over picks and composition, because those definitely matter.

She counts neither as a gnome nor as a dragon. Blizzard really fucked up here.

She's objectively NOT a gnome. Also, even if she looks like one, she doesn't have the same spirit/culture.

>>170666528
>She's objectively NOT a gnome.

Define a gnome then.
Chromie doesn't count.

>>170666666

>>170666769
Chromie is a dragon. She was born as a dragon and sometimes chooses to take the appearance of a gnome through magic. She neither has any special contact with Gnomeregan or any particular gnome character, nor with the Alliance, nor with the gnome culture, nor with technology. She's also immortal, old of several millenia, and can't reproduce with humanoids. She's very obviously not a gnome.

However, she doesn't really count as a dragon hero because she never takes her true appearance in Heroes of the Storm, which is frankly very disappointing for a dragon hero.

>>170667071
Well she's not immortal anymore.

>>170667141

>>170668818
What's the tierlist for hero purity level?

Like, Varian, Diablo, Greymane, and Leoric are definitely not virgins since they have kids.
Thrall, Malfurion, and Tyrande have almost certainly done the do, since they're married.
From what I understand Raynor and Kerrigan were in a relationship and probably had time to do it at some point.
ETC is a rockstar so probably gets laid on the regular.
Anub'arak smashes Zagara on a nightly basis.

you can't expect something thats most notable quite is "POWER OVERWHELMING" to not have overwhelming power.

That's just two high templar usually, now take SEVEN and mash them together like playdough, that's 3.5x the POWER OVERWHELMING.

I don't know how dark archons differ lorewise except that high templar (for the blue archons like tass ult) draw their power from the khala (their crystal shit) and dark templar draw their power from the void (hence the >can operate xel'naga artifacts bit)

Gameplay wise, archons have no abilities and just fuck shit up with ranged AoE-on-target attacks with bonus damage to fleshies. dark templar on the other hand have no auto-attacks but can: 1. 100% manadrain an enemy and then deal that much damage to their health; 2. stun the shit out of biological units in an area, 3. literally permanently mind control enemies

Gonna test some of your bronzie logic.

PTR for the next patch:

Varian

Abilities

Taunt (R)
Health gain reduced from +60% to +40%
Now also grants 15 Armor.

On level 10 this means 2891 base health.
4625 on the former patch.
4047 on the new one.

Which one is better?

>>170670335
It definitely depends on the flow of the game, I've finished my 100 auto attack level 4 talent on Valla before I reached level 7, 20 autoattacks more isn't bad since you get to start with it at level 1

>>170669978
Thrall as a child, we know it as certainly as we know about Varian.

I'm not sure about Furion and Tyrande; their relationship looks like some kind of platonic love, especially since Furion has been in the Emerald Dream for so long. Also, they were together for 10 000 years, and yet don't have any child.

Raynor and Kerrigan weren't in a relationship, Raynor wanted it but it didn't happen... except at the very end of Legacy of Void. It is uncertain whether this relationship permits physical interaction or not, because Kerrigan became some kind of... godlike Mary Sue spirit? We just know they kissed.

Jaina is very well know to be the bitch in Warcraft. She has some history with Arthas, Kael'Thas, Thrall and Kalecgos. We don't know if she had physical interactions with any of them, though. She may be a virgin, that would explain her anger lately.

Gul'dan and Cho'gall very probably had draeneï and human slaves. They probably fucked many of them, before killing them.

Angels like Tyrael and Auriel are obviously extremely pure and don't even understand the concept of a kiss. Tyrael as troubles with far more simple matters, like eating.

Medivh had a relationship with Garona. If you consider the comics as cannon, they had a child.

Falstad probably has a family.

Chen and Rexxar are eternal loners, but Rexxar may have fucked Misha.

Chromie is a very old dragon. It looks very probable she had some offspring, even though we don't know.

Azmodan is probably the most perverted here with Gul'dan; his favourite servant is Cydaea, the Mistress of Luxury.

Probius is the purest of them all. Li Li (a child) and Brightwing are probably pretty pure too.

Dehaka probably fucked many primal zerg corpses.

>>170670372
Yes. However dark archons aren't playable in SC2 except in the protoss campain.

In SC2 zergs can do it too (although less easily) with infestor, that basically put a parasite in your brain for a limited time and at a limited range.

Geez I wonder

I lose about 80% of my games in QM, I haven't even touched Ranked yet.
Is this game like Overwatch in the sense that bad teammates make it impossible to win?
Is there a rule of thumb to know if -I- am the bad teammate?

>>170669284

I've had much more success in QM going Twin Blade build. People shit on it for not being good but Taz'dingo is worthless outside of coordinated play and if the enemy team has even one stealther you might as well turn Taz'dingo into a "kill me instantly" button because it gets no value.

Give em the Axe is only good if they have a good front line you can constantly wail into to stack quickly and well into the late game.

>>170670986
absurdly hard to the point where you'll never do it in SC2 unless it's a custom lobby with a friend letting you.

>>170669284

>22% pernament range increase

>>170671818
Same, except I always go Taz'dingo and not Guillotine. Guillotine still just fucking sucks, with it's wind-up time, although good against Alaraks and Kerrigan, who you know will be in one place long enough, but otherwise meh. The life saving potential from Taz'dingo is too good.

>>170672102
I didn't say the range increase was bad. THAT part is great, but I was just hating on how long it takes to complete.

>>170672342
Agreed. "Spell" build but with Meme'dingo except for Guillotine is legit'.

>>170670396

New one is better. More value from healing received, has self healing talents and healing buff via banner talent at 20. Armor makes each point of health worth more than the last, and the lower HP makes % damage to him less valuable.

Tank Varian still good without the stun, DPS Varian still shit though arms is slowly getting more attractive.

Is Arthas good for a beginner?
His kit seems basic enough

With a solid grasp of game mechanics you can reliably carry your team up through gold. The thing is you aren't doing it by making epic plays and styling on the the five retards matched up against your own team of potatoheads. Keep the lanes pushed. Keep the camps on your side. Keep your teams XP higher than the other one's.

Low MMR is literally ten retards bouncing off of eachother until one side wins the coinflip and takes the core. Get good with someone like Ragnaros, Azmodan, or Murky. 75% of the teams you're fighting won't realize what went wrong when they've been winning most of the fights but all their keeps are gone and you still have all three.

>>170671751

You have to be willing to herd the cats and work on your macro game skills.

If you play splitpushers and think having 200k siege damage and 0 kill participation is good then you are the problem. If you play a dive hero and dive without your team following up then YOU are the problem, not your team.

If you mainly play QM, then winrate is literally irrelevant sepcially since the recent changes to matchmaking.

Work on your own personal play and not getting tilted over every little thing and your win-rates will reflect it given time.

It took me like 1200 games to get a positive winrate because of starting my account in alpha and going through the wild ride of bullshit over the past few years, but you will get there if you are focused on improving.

Once you get a positive winrate, either smurf a new account and apply what you know or move into ranked.

Why is this allowed.

Guillotine is situational I think, but I still get more value if the enemy has a lot of mages dancing around in the background.

If they have a stealthy I take Guillotene simply because even with Memedinger you usually can't 1v1 win the fight or run away, so I can usually at least trade before I get murdered with an instakill axe on someone's head.

Preference really, QM is a five clown fiesta afterall, results may vary.

Yes. Every hero has their nuance. The oldest heroes in the game are the easiest to get at a basic level.

Blind
Heal or be shielded
Knockback and kite

Have teammates bodyblock him and kite

Or

Silence into burst and kill
Stun into burst and kill

Would you agree with this? And IF they were to take steps and make changes to QM to enable it to prepare people for HL more, what do you think they could do, exactly? Simply just enforce the rule of one Warrior one Support to each team? Or more than that? It IS by far the most popular mode, and I personally don't think the fact that it's a "LMAO FIVE CLOWN FIESTA XD" anything goes mode, is responsible for that, so I personally think you could change this and it would remain the most popular mode.

Hey /vg/, anyone willing to grind out the WoW mount quest with me? I've been putting it off and just realized that time is running out.

My favorite tactic as Kael is living bomb him, then Gravity lapse and walk away. Almost always it kills him.

Lunara buffs when

>>170676598
That's technically a 2v1 situation. Would have been better for Lunara if it was just Ragnaros.

>>170676598
>got buffed by an abathur faggot
>blew his ult on one single person

>>170677739
>using ult to get a kill
>bad thing
hmm

>>170676598

You dived against a strong af solo character with an Aba hat and Lunara's jump is NOT a kill/burst move


Your brain needs a buff you stupid nigger

>>170674675
Id probably quit
Have 1200 qm games because I dont like ranked and only do my 10 games each season for the goodies then write it off
not to mention I personally enjoy games with no supports or tanks better
and why anyone would play a tank or heal in qm is beyond me because of the mouthbreathers that inhabit it, you can set everything up perfect for them but cant fix their stupid
