Also there's a bit of a UI issue when Kael'thas and Alexstrasza are on the enemy team. I expect her flame icon will be toned down for non-Alex players (like the Stukov thing), I really don't think I care which of my teammates have flame applied enough to make the indication that pronounced.

The only Diablo character I really want is Rakanishu. Just make him play like Kennen from League of Legends, except 17x as much gently caress off lightning bolts flying out of him.

No Wave posted:Blademaster is one of the coolest W3 units and is known as the best hero in the game (one of the randomly generated Blademaster names was Samuro)... unfortunately I don't think they really nailed his model/sounds in HotS though I actually think his ability design in general is neat. Blizzard is really loves Samuro for some reason. He was one of the characters in Blizzard DotA (as a combination Dark Templar/Blademaster, which looked pretty rad). DisgracelandUSA posted:What about snotspill, garbhad the weak, lachdanan, the black fungus, the Cow King, the unendorsed monk from Diablo 1 expansion and all the other richly defined characters in the incredibly deep Diablo World? Don't even pretend that random Overwatch dickhead #12 is that much more fleshed out than random Starcraft unit #36. Erdricks posted:So with Dva on free week, what builds do people like for her? 1: Hit the Nitrous 99% of the time, Rush Down if you're on Raven Court, Pro Moves if the other team has a Tracer. 4: Bring It On if you have a healer, Fusion Generator if you don't. 7: Coming Through on maps with capture zones (like Braxis Holdout's beacons), Dazer Zone otherwise 10: Big Shot. 13: Ablative Armor against Tracer, Sylvanas, etc. Expensive Plating otherwise. 16: GG, WP. 20: MEKAFall. Her damage relative to everyone else is pitiful until the late game, when it actually becomes pretty respectable. Self-Destruct takes forever to charge if you don't have a healer, so save it for objectives if you don't. Otherwise you can fling it at forts and the like. Don't bother using Defensive Matrix when you're dueling people unless they have a big burst spell or you have Fusion Generator and they're Tracer or someone similar. When you're out of your mek, your basic attacks are merely ok for damage without GG WP, but your ult has decent range and damage. Don't enter your mech right away unless an objective is coming up and you want to build up self-destruct before it starts. You've got better map mobility with a mount, you're better at laning, and you're a more attractive target on foot. Try to call your next mech down when you're around 50% or so, unless the other team has stuns saved for you. If that's the case you're probably doing your job anyways, though, since they aren't being used on more important people. Your mech has really low HP for a tank, and it still gives half a kill of EXP, so try not to die too many times with it. Cuntellectual fucked around with this message at 18:11 on Nov 15, 2017 |

Stop making stupid statements like this since it just discredits your stance as identifying you as an idiot who can't tell the difference between a randomly generated enemy and an actual playable character.

Some people just aren't that wowed by Overwatch design man. Preferring Rakanishu or a Firebat to Doomfist isn't just valid, it's good taste.

I haven't played since a few weeks after 2.0 launched. I decided to jump back in recently, and thought I'd check out the new additions to the roster. I ended up unlocking Stukov after looking at his skills. Did I gently caress up?

I am at a low level, however. Still, I think the lurking arm build is a trap. I love the talent where if you bio kill switch a single pustule it resets bio kill switch. My basic rotation is to Q to spread, then W, then D. I basically save E for an interrupt and use massive push to knock people out of fights.

I don't know who I want to see in the game now. I got both Garrosh and Junkrat who were the two I wanted the most. The only other one I'd love to see I think will NEVER happen is Mimiron. 4 players, one hero. I'd love to see them make that work somehow edit: Oh yeah I guess Velen. I don't really play supports at all so I would probably not use him but the game needs a Draenei and I hope they don't waste the priest class on loving Anduin

I actually prefer bunny hop for Dva’s ult, it puts out decent damage and can really disrupt the enemy team. Then you pick the Mek talent at 20.

Only 90s kids will remember this major villain from one of the best selling expansion packs of all time so instead Blizzard decides to add memorable Diablo 3 character Auriel to HotS even though she is only ever seen one time in a story mode no one plays anymore. Please look forward to Imperius and Deckard Cain in 2018. One is an angel whose only role is to look cool in CGI cutscenes (gold wings!) and the other is an old man with no combat ability who is killed halfway through Act 1 of Diablo 3 by a lovely midboss (but think of the announcer pack sales!). No, I'm not annoyed by blizzard's character choices for HotS. Why do you ask?

Also people who still play wc3 competitively almost never use mirror image because it doesn't actually do anything. Wind walk is just filthily broken.

Zoltan Kuul would be pretty cool (heh) with sand attacks and stuff, though Chromie already kinda does that. Mephisto or Baal or any of the other Evils would work too. Druid would be rad as well but I'm biased towards any kind of druid in any game.Macaluso posted:DA TUNDA KING excuse me it's DA TUNDA KEEEEENG

Speaking of Chromie... how is there not a Chromie announcer? Her voice acting is so good and she's got a ton of personality it's surprising they haven't done one for her. Although I guess they dragged their feet super hard on the Alarak announcer

whalestory posted:All I want is a zergling hero or mayhaps multiple zerglings That could be cool. Design it like TLV only all the zerglings stay bunched up in a group. You can send them off one by one for abilities, but risk them getting killed. Sort of like Olimar in smash.

Grubby has been playing some D.Va lately and it turns out that the Rushdown talent is now capable of letting D.Va be one of the fastest lane rotators around. He's been going for that, Fusion Generator, Dazer Zone, Big Shot, usually Ablative Armor since he's been going up against lots of DoT, Nanoweave Suit, and Mekafall.

Just in general Grubby hasn't updated many of his builds lately since he's been doing a lot of casting for HGC the past few months. He keeps saying on stream he needs to update them but hasn't had time to yet and he's changed his mind on a number of talents not to mention all the reworks that have come through recently. Basically if the build date is anything from before like September/October I'd give it some thought before copying it blindly.

Yeah I’ve started to follow them a lot less rigidly nowadays since I feel comfortable and experienced enough to somewhat adapt the build to the comp and map. Still like them as a rough guide however.

https://www.twitch.tv/blizzheroes Enjoying Nexus Games Europe, but it's strange that the players themselves are rarely featured by name or picture. Anyone know why? Further to this, the commentators say various countries are favored, but I have no idea why. I wish there was some context, like FIFA rankings or something.

Mandatory reminder that the way Lei Shen was killed the first time was that someone fired the Halls of Origination specifically at him. The huge Titan facility that was built as "Push this button to reset the entire surface of Azeroth." I don't know if we know who actually did it, if he actually freaked out some of the Keepers that badly or something else, but I just love the concept. I don't buy into the concept of "badass only because of power," but goddamn I'd love to see Lei Shen in HotS. I still wish we had gotten Pangaea-Kalimdor as a time travel expansion instead of WoD. The Zandalari, the Mogu, Azshara and her Highborne, the bug races under the Old Gods... it could have been so good. Mind over Matter fucked around with this message at 01:17 on Nov 16, 2017 |
