i accidentally uploaded a thumbnail forgive me
i havent been playing ranked since 2.0 hit nor do i intend to until the overwach shit blows over
my question is, is cassia auriel a thing? i imagine it must be pretty good considering shes probably the highest dps hero in the game right now
>>176118112
>playing hots on your ipad

>this retard actually thinks there are OW shitters in ranked
thoughts?
>>176118408
>not 200
Step it up, senpai.
Does does the exp after level 10 work.
Does it loop back to level 1 tier or does the requirement just keep on growing
>>176118364
>this retard thinks overwatch shitters are the only kind of shitters resurfacing after 2.0
>>176118463
It plateaus.
>>176118519
so i'm basically fucked out of lootboxes if i want to play ranked with a limited set of heroes?
Do i get probius or w8 for dvass
>>176118463
prior to 2.0 it would've kept on growing
now it just stays at the same exp requirement you need from 9 -> 10 i think
>>176118565
not really, you still get loot boxes for every hero you level up
you'd get more boxes faster if you were to play as heroes you haven't levelled to 10 yet but you'd still get boxes
>>176118565
No.
>>176118598
why not both?
Let's assume at least one hero per month after D.Va. Who else do you think we'll get? Name at least seven.

Most of them are already in.
The ones that would fit and aren't already in the game are Swann, Mira, Stukov, Duran and Fenix (Or Talandar). I'm personally hoping for Duke or DuGalle.
Unless you count The Overmind/Zasz/Daggoth, but they are entirely inappropriate.

Does Tyrande not count as a healer for their team makeup "equality"?
>>176120427
I don't even talk to them m8
the sheer amount of cancer makes me want to start games by muting the chat
Anyone have any tips for playing Tyrande in QM?
Just want to get her to 5 for the gold but it's agony. The game with 2 other supports and a tank has sapped any remaining hope I had.
Gonna ask the morning crew for thoughts.
Started playing a week ago because of that Overwatch crossover thing. Never (ever) played a MOBA in my life.
Any hot tips for a newbie that I wont find by reading strategies/guides and doing research? Things like soak exp if the enemy team is 10/20, maybe which heroes not to play until I'm more experienced? (I chose the Tanks/Bruisers bundle)
one of these teams won
the results may surprise you
I said it last night
But 2 Healers + DPS Kharazim is so good.
>>176120671
Not really. Just play quick match and don't give a fuck because it's just quick match.
If you want to be competitive, read guides and practice a lot.
is it just me or are tanky heroes inherently better in this game?
like varian just seems op as fuck as does leoric. same with butcher. is there any squishy hero that feels rewarding to play?
from dota btw, so im used to super bursty heroes like lina, lion and nyx
>>176120638
it counts as a zarya medivh abathur
if you play one of those you'll just play versus at least one from this list over and over
it sucks
>QM
>>176120817
Out of those, only Varian is OP and he legit needs a nerf.
Skele is fine if not underpowered and butcher is a joke.
>>176120662
I try not to play ranked during peak after-school hours/weekends because that's when the game quality declines from my experience and it's probably worse in gold so I'd try to avoid that but it's jut my experience maybe yours is different. Make sure you smartcast stuff if you already don't and try to get into a habit of checking the minimap often, could be something like after every CS just a quick glance. If you got a plan don't assume people can read your mind and communicate it provided it's simple enough to say in a few seconds. If you wipe out the enemy team push over getting mercs. if you're level 20 and you win a fight their death timer is like 60 seconds and their core is exposed go win the match
>>176120817
>Varian
Yes
>Leoric
Meh
>Butcher
Nah, unless he's got a Tyrael/Medivh with him

>ur in ranked and this is the enemy team
what do you do ???
>>176121107
its true
>>176120967
>>176120997
yeah, hes just so good. his heroic strike can be up 24/7 and he has a ton of damage mitigation.
i just feel squishy heroes get shit on in a lot of maps that require their presence on a specific objective. I played chromie in qm coz thats what my friend recommended me to play and while i landed all the skill shots, you really cant really hold a point with a hero as squishy as that
leoric can be on points 24/7 so thats a huge plus imo
>>176120817
Warriors are inherently better because of armor having a multiplicative effect on heals.
>>176121107
hmmmmmmmmm acceptable
>>176121145
Play Tassadar, farm Nova, watch their team fail cascade.
>>176121145

>Butcher
>>176121074
>It's worse when the one on your team is retarded.
Twin blades represent.
>>176121184
that actually makes a lot of sense. i didnt even know this game had armor. where are the armor values for the heroes or are you talking about the white shielded portion of the hp bar?
>>176120787
but dps kharazim is a healer as well
>>176121173
Chromie is one of the biggest glass cannons in the game last I checked.
Being a squishy is just more punishing if you're out of position, whereas being bad as a tank is just going to punish the team, not the player.
Tanks are generally considered one of the harder classes to play at a decent level though, at least by high end players.
>>176121269
No that's shield. Shield is a straight up addition to your HP, armor reduces damage intake by a percentage.
>>176121184
>armor having a multiplicative effect on heals
Who is the best buddy for Leoric?
>>176121476

Zag is fine for most play. She lacks the get-away and teamfight potential in higher echelons of ranked play. But if you're playing for fun, she can be great.

>>176129802
As long as it isn't longer than a 4chan post
>>176129802
do it, it should suffice until we hear from grubby himself
I'm racist.
Is this game for me?
>>176129802
3 bot
1 top
1 guy roaming between camps & bot lane
good draft targets are
vikings
brightwing
falstad

defense and offense depends on how strong your 4 man is

>>176129916
I can keep it short, but I do love long winded explanations about every detail. Maybe I'll write a full guide and link it in the thread with the main points.
>>176129921
Literally who?
>>176130081
That's how your top lane gets bullied out and you start falling behind.
I'll write some shit up when I get home.
Should I reroll loot boxes in hopes for heroes, or save my gold and buy heroes?
Heroes who have reduced respawn or multi-lives mechanics only hit peak efficiency after the enemy has already hit 30.
>>176130696
save your gold
>>176130696
only reroll normal chests if its all white
rest is throwing money away
>>176127734
What build did you go, full owl?
I've been trying to play Tyrande in QM to get to 5 but it's suffering.
>>176130776
>leoric is back after 5 seconds on level 1

>>176129962
Hopefully Garithos is added one day.
He should deal double damage to INHUMANS and tripple to elves (multiplicative, ofcourse).
Nice Varian chest.

>>176131034
5 Varian shards, bro
>>176131069
it really doesnt
leoric dying on level 1 is 300xp
minion wave is ~450xp
it means nothing
>>176130821
yeah full owl and starfall+global@20
I've been trying Leoric for a bit and I just can't get into him. I want to like him, but playing him feels like anything interesting about you depends on your W. I'm not calling him bad, but I think I'd rather be playing any other warrior than him.
I wish he played more likeDota'sSkeleton King.
>>176131294
300 + 450 = ???
>>176131034
keep it, varian nerfs soon tm
>>176131369
im pretty sure you can add that up yourself
not that i see why you would do that or what that has to do with me claiming that dying as leoric on level 1 is barely noticeable
>buy a skin with shards
>two chests later get it
>>176131361
3 passives?
>>176131345
Aight, thanks - maybe I'll give that another go later. Tried the owl build occasionally - was barrels of fun with rewind at 20 vs an enemy abathur team.
>>176131369
The tike they waste killing leoric coildve been used on the minions rather than leoric. By time he comes back alive he'll farm up the lane xp and the other team either wouldn't have gained much at all or wouldn't have netted any.

>>176126260
>hit him with any of the thirty blinds in the game

>>176131676
Skeleton King with that Marrow Strike shit was literally a top tier hero. Put that version of him in hots and I'd play him erry day.
>>176131756
He's still in Dota 1, which is the better dotardi at this point.

How does the matchmaker decide who gets to ban in drafts? Is it based on party leader status, mmr, or rng? I seem to get it 90% of the time.
Also is the order that people pick random?
>>176133216
>not 1v5ing objectives indefinitely until your team shows up
>>176133182
Didn't Gantrithor crash into the Overmind?
>>176133332

>>176133346
Yes, with Tassadar crashed that plane with no survivors.
If it being destroyed was a problem, Tassadar would not be in the game in the first place.
I'm enjoying High Sithlord Alarak so fucking much, poke build is pure bully material.
Any other similar heroes that can consistently bully someone in a lane?

maybe as a reward for participating in esports shit?

What're your opinions on Ragnaros' Lava Wave?
I've heard the guides all saying it's a situational/shit ulti, but I don't get it. It was widely used in tournaments, creates a massive XP advantage and can essentially zone an area. It's pretty good on long maps and maps where objectives result in hardpush mobs IMO.
Not saying Sulfuras Smash ain't good, but it seems a 50/50 ult pick, not 100/0 like guides tell
>>176133920
use the event mount?
>>176134717
Is shit, always shit.
>>176134707
I'm sorry.
Twice.
>>176133182

What a shitty ult
Is there anything more disgusting than a Starcraft hero saying "I need mana"?
>>176134771
But why?
>>176135065

>>176134717

>>176135441
Lava Wave is an ultimate that gains value depending entirely on your team's picks.
If you value your collective team level over teamfighting capability, in the case you have heroes that need level or gain massive strenghts with a certain talent, pick lava wave.
If you don't trust your team enough and want to carry, or if your team doesn't have any particular powerspike talent that gives a permanent advantage over theirs, pick Sulfuras Smash.
Overall I'd say it's 65/35 in favour of the Smash.
>lose a game where we are 3 levels ahead, have all our buildings and the enemy's core is at 56% 14 minutes into the game, but it stretches to 26 minutes without us being able to destroy the core and we keep on getting annihilated in teamfights untill they end the game and we lose somehow

I agree, that slut doesn't even deserve a vote
>>176136358
that doesn't matter because the enemy team is in the same position
You are the only constant in your games, so even if you do lose sometimes, you should be winning more than you lose if you are truly impactful on the game. If your team is full of shitters and the enemy team is full of shitters, then it's 5 shitters vs 4 shitters + you.
Forced 50 is a meme.

Just because your mother didnt love you does not mean the term motherly changes.
>>176136554
but butcher is goodin proper comptho so its ok
>>176136678
No Butcher is shit even in proper comps. Butcher is one of the worst heroes in the game and Twin Blades is one of the worst ults in the game.
Blizzard nerfed it into the ground by destroying Second Wind.
>>176136238
The gameplay in the first sc2 campaign was good. The story was utter garbage in all three, so the gameplay is the only thing worth considering.
>>176136752
I liked the story for the most part in 1 and 3. 2 and the Epilogue shit the bed hard though.

Blizzard ain't doin' right, but you don't deserve the wins you have.Genji in particular..the fuck? He's 'die in one hit' mode and 'STUN ME ON SIGHT' mode.
He's literally useless. At least Valeera gets a chance to drop a hit in, BUT THAT TRIGGERED REDDIT AND YOU CAN'T HAVE THAT
>>176137656
Because he has to stack like a fucking idiot to be useful, even when fully stacked he's easy to counter. Has to put himself in constant danger to do any type of real damage. Dies to any type of CC.
The only time he can ever be useful is with Medivh and even then why the fuck would you build a protect the Butcher comp when better choices exist. He's the definition of a snowball hero. When your team is carrying you and your winning he can do work, if your even or behind he's useless.
>>176138202

Anon doesn't need an "everything included guide", just a general guide for the most generally effective build for a hero.
Alternative builds are to be explored only when you're good enough to understand why they're used on your own
Why does the d3 witch doctor have a troll head oh?
FNATIC DOING THE PLAYS
>>176138275
Greymane does real damage and doesn't have to be in melee range to do it. Illidan, Leoric, Kharazim all have escapes and other utility. I shouldn't have to explain Ragnaros, and ETC is bad now because he has no health.
Butcher charges in, and you either have to blow all your sustain just to keep him alive meaning the rest of your team is fucked, or he dies and your team is still fucked.
He just isn't worth what you have to do to keep him alive and in the fight. The only thing he's got, the only thing is Slaughterhouse at lvl 20, but you don't pick a hero for a lvl 20 talent.
Where can I find a simple list of optimum specs per hero?
>>176138416
>How about you just don't play Assassins?
I fucking don't. The closest thing I play to an assassin is Ragnaros, and even then that's rare. I'm on bruisers andLuciousually.
I just can't fundamentally see the point in a Class/Character/Archetype that requires the enemy to be a shitter for it to be effective. NEVER got the logic behind it, since after a point, there's no real bads. People might slip up once, but it's not enough to make the assassin worth the pick unless they're SUPER OPHonestly? If it's a game I'm destined to lose, it's because the enemy roams as a 5-man and my team won't, so then we lose immediately and there's no comeback possible. I'm just reminiscing a Genji who tried his hardest and failed..constantly.

Jeff Kaplam made a joke responding to IGN comments that male characters in overwatch were a mistake and they would be removing them in further patches
That was in responde to a rando bitching about an all-female DLC that had been "leaked" - pulled out of someone's ass.
>>176139803
It's weird because this is probably her intended influence when the game launched. It was actually how she felt back when she had herbal cleansing and all that jazz. The slight damage buff on her E was nice but the real factor was the mana decrease so you don't have to rely on conjurer's pursuit which lets you go pretty much all damage.
What I'm saying is that this is nothing new, it's just more prevelant because people have blown her out of proportion due to how easy it is to play her. All you have to worry about is positioning.

>I shouldn't have to explain Ragnaros
Because it doesn't go with your argument, and nothing else.
Q Rag, the highest winrate build, has exactly the same problems as the Butcher. Needs to walk up to enemies, has healing dependant on his damage, and is as naturally tanky as a good Ragnaros.
Illidan, Leoric and Kharazim having escapes is a moot point by your standarts. The Butcher does enough damage with Furnace Blast to annihilate a squishy in the span of 4 seconds at most if you have one people CCing you (if you have more, congrads you just forced their team to focus more resources on you than yours has spent, so what is your team doing that they can't capitalize on that?). All the three dudes you used the argument for don't have escapes that are up 4 seconds after they engage - except Leoric, but his escape still has him vulnerable to damage until it completes, so it doesn't count. If Butcher dies in that scenario, all other three die too.
Greymane's damage is too low for a prolonged teamfight if he doesn't melee.
Butcher charges in, so let's consider two scenarios:
>He has Furnace Blast
He charges in and forces the enemies to back away from his target of choice, disrupting team positioning that your team can exploit. His damage his high but delayed, meaning the enemy team can protect the target. By picking non-essential, still important target (let's say a second Support in those teamcomps, or the less resilient Warrior) you force the enemy team into wasting precious resources keeping a not so important target alive, opening the path for your team to go ham on the high priority target.
>He has LttS
He can freely focus high priority supports, his silence making so a Medivh/Morales/Tyrande/Muradin etc can't cast their life-saving abilities. Instead of being dumbasses, your above-gold team can focus down the target the support was protecting
>>176138650
>>176140254
Btw, Butcher has 10% popularity and 58% winrate in plat and above.
Maybe you're just an autist with tunnel vision and a nonsensical rage boner against a specific hero

>>176140585
She's pretty lousy in the current meta, she definitely needs a buff to make her a better damage dealer and probably give her heal some additional utility like a baseline speed buff or something. She doesn't really need more healing because she has never been a heal bot

>>176138512

>>176141395
I really hope now, I love playing her as she is now, all they need to do is just give her more damage so her AA build can be useful
>>176140585
She DESPERATELY needs a buff.
No matter how you build her she can't be an actual damage dealer or an actual healer.
She provides some utility but it doesn't really pay off until level 16 and being able to do 3 roles at once at a subpar level is not all that great in practice.
Kharazim is a good example of a healer/damage dealer hybrid done right.

>>176141687
Haven't all Overwatch characters gotten kits that are literally just their original abilities translated into a full MOBA?
She will be able to attack while moving but that will reduce her walking speed.
One of her abilities will be her booster; it will increase movement speed for maybe 50% for 3 seconds, she will knock enemies along the way.
Defense Matrix will be a PROTECTED type of deal but only against projectiles (not beams) and it will extend some distance in front of her.

I really don't get why she needs a rework her whole talent system actually gives variety then being stuck doing the same fucking build over and over. The only thing they should to do help her is give a bigger heal. I rather stun the shit out of the enemy and make their tanks/carries worthless then be at the mercy of your team hoping they do something.
>>176142639

Sorry, 12%, my bad.

>>176142798
Zarya has been banned more than Butcher has been picked. Samuro isn't good, Morales, Raynor aren't good. Leoric is picked only as an off tank or solo laner.
You aren't making a good case here.

Her stun is there more for chaining CC, it sucks by itself you don't really stun the shit out of anyone and even with rewind you can't keep them stunned for a straight 1.5 seconds because of how long it spends in the air now. Her trait was a big reason you brought her because it provides early vauln before level 16 when a lot of other heroes bring that on their abilities (now a bunch of them bring a weaker version at 13 as well). But now you just bring someone who can do damage instead of gimping your team with a tyrande. If they buff her damage she will be in a better spot, although she is still too easy to kill

>>176143117
You just answered your question
Reverting to her old self would bring back an overpowered hero
Her remaining as-is gives an underpowered hero
Both versions are broken that are more trouble maintaining than they're worth
>>176143993
So why is it okay to have so many broken heroes in the game? They will probably never see a rework or nerf anytime soon. It makes no sense why they can be broken but others can't.
>>176141961
Ok, maybe there is some hope.
>>176142402in SC1 there's a hidden mission only on the n64 version where you find out the zerg took Stukov's dead body and resurrected him as an infested commander and you have to go rescue him.
>>176143915
Protect from like Varian and now Genji as well as Medivh. Mobility from lucio, not to mention Li-ming wasn't even in the game when Tyrande was good, then you have Zarya shields, Dehaka and the new armor system, then people like hammer getting armor when they get stunned.
There are a lot more heroes that were added that lower the effectiveness of bringing a Tyrande other than just lucio.

Pay attention to your surroundings more
Don't rush to the objective, let a couple allies catch up with you
If you're really low health but the enemy team is focused on other people, throw in a few abilities but don't commit to a fight
If a team fight happens, commit to it, don't run away at the first sign of being hurt, try to steer your attacker into your team if you can
If you see a squishy ally getting fucked, try to peel the enemy off them
>>176146891
never let a teammate pick butcher cause you gotta build a team around him and then babysit him for 15 min while he gets his meat quest done
play people that you're good with and see what other people are playing, if it's a stun guy pick more stuns so you can stack them. easiest way to synergize is to do the same stuff over and over on top of each other like locking down a character for 10 seconds with 5 different stuns

Watch for people who single themselves out.
In a teamfight, you basically get to cast void prison and then hope they are retarded.

>try to poke/distract them
>die and they take it
and then my entire team proceeds to die because some even used their ults to bring down the tower
>>176150347
Yeah must suck for your poor teammates to be stuck with a shitter like you

Any shields.
Any protection from teammates.
Ice block.
Playing support in QM on level 15 account is the worst shit ever, why i picked support bundle.

I'm reading her official comic right now and I'm honestly surprised they show her drinking beer and not in a throwaway "this taste bad" gag , but instead she is quite a drinker. Pic should be releated.
I wonder if sometime in inner-dev cycle she actually used a beer as healing.
I have no idea why the hell I wrote that, just really didn't expect to see it.

>>176150834
So let me see if I got it
You and your team just fought over a tower
Then a singular objective popped up
And your team didn't want to take it
Did you have a good advantage by any means?
If you were like 32-24, it's best to take a tower, because that'll snowball into taking another tower if you cycle correctly and it'll give the enemy team something to be busy and split up, allowing the taking of further objectives much more easily, at the cost of a single 4 damage to your core.
If
>It was a single objective
>You were ahead
Then you're the shitter, not your team, and you brought them down, not the other way around

Any tips for Tassadar my dudes?
I think I got a decent talent pick going, but would like to hear what yall do to make him shine.
Please
>>176151487
it sucks to suck
>>176150816
Literally almost every single team in the game has some way to completely make that ultimate worthless.
>Big handful of orcs and other races from Warcraft already in the game
>They picked Zul'Jin before Vol'Jin and he's likely going to be only troll on roster
This hits me harder than this guy dying from basic demon minion's poisoned weapon while Varian gets more dramatic ending and rebirth in HoTS.
>>176151157
never had the hots for tyrande until hots
>>176151502
i usually go with the AA build bcause its fun
>>176151116
It looks like you have a scanned version of Pearl of Pandaria. Care to share? I only have the physical copy.
Don't forget to read her travel journal and quest to pandaria.
>>176150927
How's bronze?
>>176151502
Tassadar is fucking great.
The important part isn't even the build, it's not forgetting to hit your D button for free Nova/Valeera/Samuro/Zeratul kills.
I go archon at both 10 and 20 and mostly pump shields and storm, as appropriate. The speed buff for shield is really fun, as it lets you set your teammates up with kills or let them bail out of their retarded fuckups.
Force field is a bad meme, but you don't need to take it.Gantrithor when?

Wayyyy too early.
>>176152523
Oh. Nice.
>>176151269
what the fuck lol
you can just have someone take the objective in literally 5 seconds and everyone else pushes at the same time and then they catch up and help push
theres absolutely no way that not taking the objective was the correct play, ever

nice
i like it
Why does Chromie's dragon or whatever not have an indicator on the ground where it's gonna land, on small objectives it feels like I just have to pray she didn't put it somewhere I'm running to
I know it's pretty easy to avoid but fuck is it anxiety inducing trying to dodge
What should I spend my gems on? There are no heroes I particularly want to play.
>>176157579
The whole point of her spells is that you don't see the aoe indicator. She sieges you from range and you just have to hope you are less predictable than her.

been trying to get back in to HOTS since they gave away a load of free heroes
continually losing games and having no idea why
started playing as gul'dan tonight. won every game and actually feel like i'm doing damage in a fight/able to turn fights around.
>>176160734
>tfw getting the opposite
I like Gul'dan but I hate getting bad teams.
>>176161120
am i being thick, or is it always optimal to play 5 on the objective?
really surprising the amount of teams i get in solo q that will stay in lane when objectives spawn, and then we lose. am i missing something?
>in a game with someone named FedoraTipper
Which one of you faggots is this?
>>176161817
Your teammates are low mmr or new players.
>TFW keep getting sonya skins from loot boxes

Please guys, just end me already.
