D.Va is up. Holy poo poo rerolling Veteran crates is expensive. To play D.Va, Alarak, or Tyrande... Nephzinho fucked around with this message at 17:57 on May 16, 2017 |

Wait they released Alarak as is?

First complaint with d.Va: her portrait in the Hero Select screen makes her look derpy.

It's slightly dumb that D.Va's Defense Matrix reductions don't get counted on the score board.

Anyone tried to Tyrande Hunter's Mark heal + Tracer/Varian/Tychus yet? I assume it just makes them invulnerable unless they get CC'ed.

Second complaint about d.Va: Everything about her feels awkward as gently caress to control. The way her auto-attacks in mech form pivot but have an incredibly short range, her attacks in pilot form are so fast you can't stutter step properly, defense matrix will frequently not come out where my cursor is. A lot of this is probably just new hero learning curve of course but still, man.

Oh man I played with an Alarak last week that just used his abilities randomly. Walk up, Q, miss. Maybe decide to W 3 seconds later as the enemy walks away from him. Never once did it occur to him to shove the enemy into him so he can Q them. Then he got MVP because my Brightwing kept everyone alive despite their best efforts.

Saved up 9 chests before today and didn't get D.Va, but I got a legendary space lord motorbike so I'm happy

Holy gently caress new Tyrande is awesome. The stun talent is ridiculous once you finish it, the range is like a full screen away. I went Lunar Blaze/Moonlit Arrows/Trueshot Aura/Shadowstalk/Harsh Moonlight/Mark of Mending/Iceblade Arrows, and it owned.

I like new Tyrande and I like the Lunar Blaze talent at level 1, because that coupled with landing your owls as early and often as possible means you have two abilities that end up costing zero mana and you can dump it all into spamming heals. I don't know if it's the 'right' choice but it's the fun one for me!

Is tank Varian still a thing? I heard that there were some changes to him on PTR that nerfed a lot of his tanking abilities.

Is there a way to change the color of the mouse pointer? I just started playing in the dva event and i lose my mouse an awful lot when I'm trying to aim abilities thanks to it being the closest thing to camouflage colored on a lot of maps, flat gray.

Level 7 parry talent is still good. It's not hard to get hit 4 times when people focus you in a team fight. Just don't expect it to work in a 1v1 anymore.

I don't even have Tyrande and she's on sale, so I'll probably have to test her in that try-mode

Just gonna say I tried this out because of the megabundle promotion and it's surprisingly fun, given how I've heard nothing but bad things about MOBAs. Either the matchmaking is good or there's a ton of similar newbies out there because I'm baffled but the matches I've played (I think) are actually pretty competitive.

Ein Sexmonster posted:She's insane. I'm pretty sure she's going to need some nerfs. Really not sure how to build her though. Lunar quest and AA talents lead to some serious bullying, while Owl quest and Empower just poke the poo poo out of the enemy team to the point their healer is going to have trouble getting the team ready to engage.

I don't think you can change color, but you can make it bigger. I made mine almost comically big and it helps a lot.

Best part of this patch: hero pregame banter is back. Chaos Reigns/Extended Lightning's "Hit 3 heroes" portion is really unrealistic, without a good ETC/Zarya. Cuntellectual fucked around with this message at 22:16 on May 16, 2017 |

I'm surprised they just dont give the level 4 talent the same "double edged sword" treatment as other characters. Something making the base cooldown longer or taking away a stack I exchange for invulnerability. Straight invulnerability with no consequence is a no brainer and I can't see much of a reason to pass on it.
