I hope Massive Shove works like I think it does, where it will shove the hero and only stop when it collides with terrain. I want to see some high level shoves that shove a target across the map

edit: shove

I hope Stukov gets a baseball skin so he can just massive shove someone with a giant catcher's mitt

So Stukov slows, silences, and has a reverse-Sylvanas-W heal.

He shoves too. You forgot the shove.

Need to see some Medivh teleport Stukov in, shove across the map into your own fort, TP out action.

Game seems to be ending soon. Stukov incoming :dance:

e: they're milking the audience for views. First commercial they're playing before Stukov is Chromie's champion spotlight, which still says she gets talents 1 level early :laugh:

I want to see a Diablo shadow charge an enemy as he is shoved, should be a good race with the 20 upgrade

This is the dumbest poo poo, let's show a 10 minute chromie commercial instead of the new hero... what does this gain?

This is a pretty great kit, talents look like there are some good options too. Wonder how he's tuned.

Had a person literally freaking out in my last game of this brawl and going "idiots" in chat even though we were winning and eventually did win. No matter what the mode is, no matter how silly it is, if you're not playing optimally someone will get really angry.

Like imagine being someone who takes the "Stitches wearing a bikini and carrying around a bucket and pail pulling another Stitches across a swimming pool while Gnomergon music plays" brawl THAT seriously

Some dude was raging the whole time going like 'assholes pull me back!!' he included a "NOT gg assholes" at the end too.

Who wants to roll the Stukov + Roots comp?

(his E is Slowing Sands but for silence instead of slows)

Mierenneuker: Apr 28, 2010; We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

So if Stukov is on your team, do you destroy fort walls or not?

I have to imagine the range on that E is short because that is way too good otherwise. Unless a Guldan or Chromie can OHKO him while he's standing still shouting KILL ME.

Elysium: Aug 21, 2003; It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.

I think I might have completely missed the part where they showed his other ult while I was posting about Shove, he swings his arm or something?

Wait, who am I kidding, Stukov doesn't have 2 ults.

I'm up for it. His shove ult is the stuff of dreams and much fun. His E is a channeled ability, so not exactly like Slowing Sands.

I imagine you will always want to use it for the max range because its self-protection for the duration of the channel, and is otherwise a better Cocoon.

Realistically I think the other ult will be better -- that is a TON of CC. The range is huge and it will be his only escape.
