It's not even a cool mount. Also all you need is a cloudface, a surfboard, or a sweet space bike, I mean really.

Really the best mounts are the goblins. What better way to express your superiority than to have your enormous Diablo-rear end carried around by a literal slave?

I'm not sure what amuses (depresses) me most. Watching ads for fake money, the guy on reddit who figured out how to only spend $132 instead of $140 and posted detailed instructions, the people that complain they should get more for their $140, or the people who say we must help Blizzard, Twitch, and the esports organizations by giving them money, even if the rewards aren't that great. These for profit corporations need our help. Ok it's that last one.

lucifirius posted:It's actually kind of fun, and depending on the map and how the enemy reacts, you can do pretty well. "Be five specialist and push all fuckin game no matter what" used to be a primo Hanamura strat before they found new, even more creative ways to gently caress that map up. I swear I watched Grubby participate in a game where one team did something similar on Tomb of the Spider Queen but I can't remember what the draft context was for it...I think it was something like the enemy team had drafted a bunch of nimble assassins like Tracer and Genji and so Grubby figured that their waveclear would be garbage and decided to counterpick characters with really good waveclear to outpush and outsoak them and it worked.

I remember a few years ago there was some febreeze ad or some poo poo that actually would not continue unless you "clicked to spray!" the stupid bottle. Difference being that ad was actually forced on you before you watched something on youtube(?) while these Twitch ones are opt-in.

Well in fairness it's a "hey, I can contribute money to the person streaming" mechanism normally, it's just annoying that it's tied to something tangible in this situation, because it's a lovely system. E: It's annoying that this is the system we're getting instead of something like the Dota battle passes or SC2 warchest, but I imagine it's probably some sort of "hey, we'll pay you money if you do this through us" arrangement with Twitch.

Re: Specialist Chat, I had a game in Team League once where we rolled Nazeebo, Azmodan, Zagara, TLV, and Abathur on Cursed Hollow. It was probably one of the meanest, most one-sided matches I've ever played in - the enemy team was in full panic mode as soon as they realized that we didn't show up for the traditional mid teamfight and wound up with a level lead before the first minion wave even arrived. Every curse they managed to get we promptly ignored. I want to say we had all of their keeps down within ten minutes.

The new mega coin brawl isn't all that thrilling. Mildly let down. The most interesting mechanic is dodging the cannot balls that are landing around the treasure spawns.

Maybe my issue with Thrall is that the butcher murders him and I play against the butcher every game. Or, more plausibly, I played badly in one game and came here and immediately bitched about it.

Part of the "problem" with Thrall is that his sustain and potential burst got hammered in the rework. He does more damage in a prolonged fight, but he can't facetank and sustain himself anymore. His frostwolf procs mostly come from chain lightning now and they proc for less than half of what they used to.

Thanks for all the tips and help. I've played QMs pretty much the entire afternoon today to get a feel for the heroes. Didn't like playing warriors that much except Johanna, who was fun and seemed very durable. All the support have been fun, especially Malfurion and Lt. Morales. It seems however to take quite a couple of hours to get to level 5 on a hero during the free week. Is the idea that you are supposed to be able to do with all fourteen before you start ranked?
