appropriatemetaphor posted:What's the best way to counter Garrosh? I feel like I end up getting owned by him all the time because he won't die and you can't get close or else you get nuked by the other team after the throw. maxHP% damage, armor reduction, and burstier damages are more effective against Garrosh. Sustained damage/autoattacks are weaker since they maximize the effectiveness of his trait.

I think she's much better as a secondary healer/support to a main one who can reliably AOE, but I think combining her with that setup is insanely good. Playing alongside a Stukov was the only game of her I really enjoyed. As a solo support she leaves a lot to be desired.

GodDAMN when a game goes this well it feels  as HELL MVP went to my friend, the Tracer, but the real MVP was the broken as gently caress OP Lili Also shout out to their team who literally NEVER STOPPED TRYING TO FIGHT US. Like for real during the objective they just kept trying to fight us in the middle, would lose really hard, we'd go back to collecting seeds, and I think at most they got like 7. It was honestly incredible. Also shout out to the Ana and bad Kerrigan who were constantly out of position for me to pull and throw. That poo poo was awesome. My favorite was during a teamfight when their Stitches ate me and tried to take me far away. Except when he spit me back out I launched him way the gently caress back into my team and he was torn to shreds. And I was out of position at that point and would've died except our OP as gently caress Lili was able to get just close enough with her ult that I was able to edge into some healing. It feels awesome when a game goes this well edit: ALSO had a game of Volskaya before this map that also went really well. I REALLY like that map. Like it's easily one of my favorites. Awesome job on this one Blizz

Picked this game up again after not playing in a while, and I have to ask... does Blizzard even give a single gently caress about how toxic people are in this game? I've been a long time LoL player, and while it isn't perfect, Riot has done a pretty good job of cleaning out the most egregious offenders in that game. In HotS, however, it seems like at least 50% of my games have someone deliberately AFKing because someone didn't follow their demands, someone constantly calling the rest of the team loving morons, or someone just spamming friend of the family and/or human being the entire game. It really is starting to wear on me and ruin the enjoyment of the game, which is a shame because I actually like the gameplay itself a lot. I always report these people, but it really feels like Blizzard simply doesn't give a poo poo.

Just finished a game in which the Barian died 4 times in 3 minutes, and ehen I suggested he stopped being caught out of position by the Garrosh he called me salty, died 14 more times, then DC'ed 30 secs before end of game. Garrosh punishes out of position players like nobody's business. He's a cool hero and people always underestimate how much punishment he can take. He never loving dies! Also, Li Li pairs wonderfully with him. Garrosh throws, Li Li serpent/blomd/heal rinse and repeat.

They definitely made some good improvements to the AI. Hammer for example will no longer siege every 3 seconds and will actively poke at you while moving around. Dehaka AI was still quite dumb tho (primal zerg indeed) and they're not great at dealing with an exploding mech. But in the general it's a step forward. I played two games vs Elite AI with others and level 20 was reached in both of them, which might be a uncommon occurrence in bot games.

I've been playing a lot of Rexxar lately, and I like him a lot as your offtank, especially vs. Garrosh. He can toss Misha around all day and she'll just stun her way out while healing massively. This requires playing Misha at max range though, cause Rexxar himself getting tossed is devastating.

The two dumbest things AI things i've seen in this game was during the hanamura push brawl, two dvas on my team were both bots, and for no reason at all mid game they both hearthed, then just sat in base hearthing over and over without moving until the game was over. Also old murky ai used to lay his egg in lane where enemy minions would kill it, then he would die, pointlessly.

So apparently Deathwing D.Va is not in game yet? They must be saving it for the Junkrat release/Halloween event. If you've been hoarding loot boxes it's probably best to hold on to them I guess (and hope that they're not doing special Halloween loot boxes).Olaf The Stout posted:The two dumbest things AI things i've seen in this game was during the hanamura push brawl, two dvas on my team were both bots, and for no reason at all mid game they both hearthed, then just sat in base hearthing over and over without moving until the game was over.

I always laughed whenever an AI had bizarre pathing, wandered towards your keep and died without players being nearby. I am also fond of this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6rskJlWlIs I haven't seen Valeera AI since the patch yet, but I hope they fixed the bug where she just stealths and keeps hovering near a player without doing anything.

The new AI seems like it could still use a little work though. Farting around vs. Adepts they just run laps between all three lanes until an objective spawns or structures start going down. They're also better about using their abilities well, but also seem to be a bit easier to goad into walking straight under tower.

It's so important to do that in this game that if you haven't there's a link right in chat when the game starts to just "click here to disable allied chat". You'll also usually need to mute pings from at least one person, which you can quickly and easily do right from the scoreboard!

Yeah, that's a pretty strawman argument. Playing QM on insta-mute is a dick move, but it's definitely more challenging (and thus you'll improve more) than playing vs. AI. If you want challenge and the increased satisfaction of making sure other people lose (doesn't matter on which team  ) then it's better than AI.

There's no reason to mute all at the start of a match. If someone starts getting out of line either be a man and walk them back by sharing some good strategic insights about how you are going to win this match or be a man by claiming you are going to have sex with their father tonight. I ping movements constantly but almost never type anything unless I'm dead and have a few seconds to reflect on what could be changed so that never happens again. It's never worth expending your mental energy debating toxic folks.

I only type if I have a great idea like "boss" "boss" "nm bad idea" or if someone is picking on a member of my team for having a bad game. Or if someone does something really good. (Or if I'm drunk, but that's different and we won't go into that.) But muting after being insulted isn't enjoyable and I don't hold it against anyone who insta-mutes all.

His Q quest has a weaker version that's easier to finish so you don't need to coordinate with your whole team to stack your damage. He was also super broken on Hanamura, a map that recently got retired for being awful. I don't think he's really considered top tier at the moment but he's not awful in the hands of a player who knows how to play him.

Maybe quickmatch has changed dramatically since the last time I played but much like Overwatch quickplay there really isn't much if any communication at all unless someone is being an rear end in a top hat, otherwise even with chat on you might as well be playing with it muted.
