Is the forced 50 really a thing because every game is either an easy win or a stomp with little to know chance at winning.

Who's the best jungler champ?

>>176192809
If you were about to win, just needs boss, you should have left the boss the fuck alone and concentrated on your payload.
If you danced around boss alone while your teammates died also alone you are as much of a shitter as they are.

Welp honeymoon phase is over

This game is still the same terrible game it was on release. Back to league.

>play murky in quickplay
>win 10/11 games

uh hotsguys????

>>176193104
HOLY FUCK MY DICK HNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG

Anti-Armor Shells (basic attacks do 250% damage but shoot like once every 4 seconds I think) or one in the chamber (after using an ability the next basic attack does 80% damage) for Nova? I've been using anti armor but god damn does she attack slow as fuck so now i'm doubting it.

>>176193380
Its true though.

>>176191472
For me it was the opposite, played league for 4 years but got fucking sick of that shit, spent 1 or 2 years without playing moba when i finally started playing hots. It also helps i really like blizz characters

>>176193425
>No Reaper Legendary skin for Valla

Why

I thought the whole "don't play QM on the weekends" thing was just a meme but Jesus Christ, some of these fucking people man, I swear.

I probably need to take a break for a few days. I used to be able to stay completely quiet even when people were retarded but not anymore. I don't like what I'm becoming.

Is there some 3D Model Viewer for Heroes of the Storm?

>>176193570

>>176193570
Just be toxic bro look how well it did for Tyler1. He's making 6 figs for being toxic now.

>>176191716
Fire your knockback at it. Should light it up to pop at it from a better distance.

>>176193318
How is league any better?
I asked a friend of mine about it and some of the things he explained to me sound tedious as fuck and in some ways like pure cancer.
The fact that you need to land the killing blow to get XP sounds pretty unfun, and the fact that you don't share XP with the whole teams seems like a perfect recipe for infighting in a genre that is already pretty fucking prone to infighting.

>>176193586
It's a teambased objective game if everyone is trying their hardest to lose its not very simple to win.

>>176192172

The fact that Medivh is completely balanced around Master's Touch is kinda bullshit and the reason he has a 36% winrate.

>>176193797

im not the guy ur talking to but LoL is pretty shit now after ghostcrawler got his hands on it pretty much why i quit

S1 Silver / S2 Gold / S3 Plat / S4 Diamond / S5 Diamond then quit

>>176193426
Okay, if you stood with your team and communicated through pings you already are a good way to Diamond. Blindly following your tank will win you more games than it loses you even if the group decides for something absolutely retarded, so just keep at it and accept the occasional unavoidable loss.
>b-but I am the tank anon
Ping yourself, hope someone follows

>>176193725
R?

>>176193952
Pick the global R

>>176191786
Aba helps passively push lanes and has decent power on hat abilities. He also helps stay ahead in Experience and if he goes Monstrosity forces at least one person to go deal with it or lose a tower. And of course doubling someone like Valla or Kael can really put the hurt on in team fights.

In other words, play with better Abathurs and you will appreciate him more.

>>176194009

Triple tap

>>176193797
It feels way better than hots in every way.
>kills
>towers
>mechanics
The list goes on and on, league is more enjoyable every second in game compared to hots. There isn't very many satisfying mechanics in hots and losing lane, soak, and merc camps is a lot more tedious to deal with than anything in league.

Its just the truth

>>176193952
There's almost no reason to take Triple tap. It gets blocked by nearly everything.

>>176193934
They literally ran into the enemy base thinking it was a good idea when most of them were low. I didn't stay super long to figure out what was about to happen. It just makes no sense we had an easy win but we threw it away for worthless kill.

>>176194134
Not to mention all the maps and learning how to macro them is actually insane for a "casual" moba most people claim it is.

>>176194134
Ah but you're forgetting one very important aspect of League. The forced meta and Riot's INSISTENCE you play a hero a certain way. It always feels like every game plays the same way.

>>176194134

LoL isnt enjoyable since pass S4 buddy lol

>>176194328
Thats why its still dominating the entire moba scene lol

>>176194192
>reading the little tip on the loading screen on what the objective of the map is "insane" to a league faggot

>>176194134
Better and enjoyable are pretty subjective without any deeper explanation.

The game keeps adding stupid shit while buffing the fuck out of champions that don't need it while adding stupid reddit tier humor just to appease the worst community. There are some aspects I like about league but there way too many fucking negatives. I hope they never add fucking gook team skins because they are all ugly as fuck.

>>176194373
and hollywood dominates film, doesn't mean it's good.

>>176194385
There's an underrated amount of complexity when it comes to the meta of each map.

It feels like slow shit in everything except health pools. Heroes and Abilities are less responsive, kills happen so infrequently that they literally win the game with only a few.

Ive been play HoTS since its 2.0 relaunch and so far I've gotten like 30+ skins and half the heroes without having to spend a dime. its been great

>>176194836
Exactly thats why EVERYTHING you do in league feels 110% more impactful than any decision in hots. It always feels like im doing something important while hots you just mindlessly follow each other around and heal back any poke damage you took

>>176195075
>merc camp

>>176195075

Sure you can act like you're above me but what exactly do you like about hots?

>>176195196
>i don't want to play the game

>>176195371
You have fun branching off from your team to deal with merc camps? I thought you guys were all about team fights and not dealing with creeps. Interesting.

>>176195419
>branching off

>>176195196
How is it any more tedious than staying in lane until 20 minutes or however long LoL farms these days.

It's a pacing issue between the two games. HoTS has constant action from rotations and map objectives. LoL everyone stays in their designated lane and MAYBE might gank if they don't lose EXP/Gold from doing so. Hell Dota has roaming gankers and more active teamfights throughout all points of the game.

>>176194604
>Doesn't even have to aim his reflect unlike Alarak
>Can literally sidestep while stutter stepping around Alarak and he'll never hit you
Honestly it's refreshing for a protoss to not be overpowered for once

>lagbabbies are retarded
more at 11

>>176195443
Honestly the constant action from laning phase feels a lore more impactful than Hots "constant" action, in league you have so many things in mind to watch out for during laning phase but not many average players are able to consciously see what they are, all they think about is "fight, get kills, fight, get kills"

>>176195598
>fight, get kills, fight, get kills
so league

>>176195592
>being this mad
I'd be upset too if my favorite moba was single handedly getting dismantled by one or two anons

>>176194571

>>176195598
the fact that riot banned people just for playing fun build and forced lane roles is a crime against humanity
LoL was dead since season 2

>>176195664
makes you wonder why they'd come here and get destroyed rather than stay in babbygen

>>176195361
It's fun. League was my first assfaggot. I was D1 in s3 and s4. I'm grandmaster in HotS.

I never want to last hit again.

I never want to get instagibbed halfway across the map because of incompetent teammates.

I never want to spend 15 minutes laning.

I never want to play a hero where the endgame is literally "right click and two shot someone"

It's an objectively mediocre game.

>>176195681
It gets a lot more complicated if you want to go into the money department, leave me your skype and i'd be happy to tell you in detail how it goes down.

In short, league ways a ton of fuck more money than Dota 2, dota 2 has the appearances though and its still better than hots objectively speaking.

True, but how often do you ever fight Zagara while on creep? Almost never. I'm sure making the changes I proposed wouldn't be that big a deal thus we should just do them without thinking about it too much.

Rate my scv hero design based on Probius

1 - Build a siege tank has the same stats as a Sgt Hammer of your level but it can't unsiege so its balanced
Q - Omnislash deals 9999 damage 8 times to your targeted enemy. Cannot be avoided by iceblock, reflect, death, or anything else.
W - Build a supply depot which gives your team 20% more damage and armor for every depot built on the map
E - Summons a barracks that spawns a wave of marauders, marines, medics, firebats, and ghosts every 15 seconds
R - Build a Starport that spawns Battlecruisers which cannt be attacked by melee heroes and has the same stats as an Immortal but attacks heroes more often than buildings
R - Call down a nuke dealing heavy damage to all nearby enemies. Triple damage to buildings
Trait - Summon several SCVs to repair all friendly buildings in an area and make them immune to damage while being repaired

Why is Alarak considered bad? Being able to push people around seems pretty good

>>176198520
His main damage ability is easy to avoid, his auto attacks are shit, his lightning is only good in the early game, and his heroic abilities suck.

Soaking is the HotS equivalent to Laning/Lasthitting

Taking merc camps is the HotS equivalent to jungling

Of course there are mayor differences but thats just the general gist

>>176199530
>people complain about csing in league
>they overlook the fact that you have to soak in hots

really makes you think

>>176199434
So are falstad and brightwing.

>>176199456
Corruption is absolutely stronger, as you finish your quest and hit 16, his burst potential is fucking insane.

Having said that though there are times where people just flat out won't let you get any stacks off of them at all. In this case i's probably more worth it to just build for Q, or at least just get the mana quest talent at 1.

>>176198619

Being hard doesn't mean he's secretly good. He's definitely on the weak side.

why do lolbabs pretend like last hitting is anything but an opional minigame in their shitty excuse for a moba

play dota and then talk to me about last hitting

>>176199494
The thing is the only difference between Corruption and Fel are 1 and 16 talents.
Corruption 1 talent is pretty much only good in PvE because people just move to the side and extra strikes whiff. 16 talent is also pretty PvE because hitting someone 3 times is not very likely. Not to mention level 1 talent takes like 15 minutes to complete.
I can see it on something like Infernal Shrines where you constantly fight big PvE targets but on other maps it seems like a waste of talents.
Corruption is still a sick nuke even if you go Fel build. Idk.

>>176199598
yes but they are dumb fat birds
pharah has a fucking jetpack

>>176199587
Do you think its exactly the same? Lasthitting is just a pointless nuisance imo. Its just a dumb minigame inside a game and slows down the gameplay to a monotone 20 minute laning phase

should I be buying heroes with gold or the blue stuff?

>>176199701
Her jetpack makes her a dumb fat bird, though

>>176199787

>>176199828

>>176199786
>Ganks and poking apparently doesnt happen
>its only csing for 20 minutes

I mean sure in the lower ranks its PROBABLY like that but what you describe pretty much happens all game in hots, soak for the higher talent and get someone out of position.

>>176199143

If you're laning clear the lane and back up unless you know it's safe. You can win about any lane, but you shouldn't push solo because you have no mobility.

If you're not laning get with your damn team.

>watch the pro HGC tournament
>braxxis hold out
>both teams are just pushing one lane and too afraid to engage one another the whole game

Yeah constant action. You NEVER see this in league.

>>176198636
You just be an unkillable wall and disrupt as best you can. She was one of the first warriors I learned.

>>176199875
In HotS there are still objectives to attend which makes the game more dynamic + the ganks which could happen during soaking. HotS adds actually more to the table imo

>>176200104
I mean ignore it all you want but its the truth.

>>176200074
problem is you don't choose your hero before you queue so even though i can soak up a lot of damage, the team lacks damage and me soaking damage doesn't do shit. I just started the game (level 13) so i don't get to choose after i find a game

>>176199942
Wasn't there a League pro game where it was basically like 2 to 3 and they conceded? I just remember them having absurdly low kill numbers.

>>176199942
probably because braxis is a shit map that takes a year to rotate

>>176200185
It was more of the fact that they wanted to hold the beacon, but you are right Braxxis is a little big.

That other starcraft map is HUGE though, the one with the nukes

>>176200153
Don't worry about it. At that low level anything goes and the wins don't matter.

Just focus on getting a handle on how the mechanics of HoTS work. Trying to communicate with your team to take objectives, rotate, take camps, ect. Get a feel for the flow of battle. The game really starts when you do Hero League. Don't rush it though.

Who is the Slark of HOTS?

Is there some sort of joke I am missing with Alarak? The more you level up and choose talents the more you fuck yourself over and the only way to increase your damage is literally hope your team dies a lot.

>>176200140
HotS is defined by its changing objectives alongside the team exp and the many different maps. I wouldnt say LoL is particularly well known for its last hit mechanics.

I like having objectives which can help your team to win alongside the regular lane pushing. But in the end it comes down to personal preferences. I played LoL for a very long time and I had my fun but I just think that HotS is more enjoyable for me. I switched for similiar reasons from Hearthstone to Elder Scroll Legends

>try alarak pokebuild because i keep reading it here

might be because of qm but so far he seems like the worst hero ive played till now, other than his laser all his other stuff is close range and without a real escape you get blown up in seconds

show him that im a big guy

I dong understand how anyone can defend League's mechanics as a strong point. Jungling is pretty much impractical or terribly inefficient for supports to do if you havent built any offensive items, because youll be there for a full minute trying to kill the camp. Rotations are literally not worth your time so nobody ever does it, Bard was a failure as a roaming champ, probably because hes a support so he's confined to as far as mid lane before bot gets its shit pushed in. Certrain dragons are pretty worthless. Last hitting is just a chore because items are just so generic that they dont really even seperate themselves from talents. They have like 2 "interesting" items, both of which are shittier versions of Dota items. The whole game's balance is centered around the "optional" summoner spells. The whole game just tries to walk the line between being mechanically simpler like HotS while trying to be as interesting mechanically as Dota. If I wanted to be interesting or simple though, I wouldnt play LoL, Id play HotS and Dota.

>>176201765
Arthas needs to ramp up his aura to fuck AA heroes, Johanna's blind is instant. Lowering average AA damage < preventing a teammates death from Greymane.
JoJo gets free unstoppabke, Arthas needs a talent, JoJo gets MS to engage early on, Arthas needs Sindra or a storm talent, bith messing with tankiness. Jo gets a stun, Arthas only a root.

Their roles are kinda similar, but Arthas is much better against melee AAs, Johanna is less vulnerable to ranged AAs.
