Maelstrom is very good if you can get 20 stacks relatively quickly and/or you know the game will last a while.

Like it might beat out Follow Through if you're fighting someone who is going to let you smack them repeatedly and safely, but that's a big if.

i finished the lost vikings rework that i've been working on and off on for about a year and i wanna die so far the feedback has been about 50:50 on "it's way too strong" to "it's way too weak", so i'm pretty sure i did something right if people are that divided

the only point in mw's favor, is that fully stacked its hilarious to see Thrall, who is already a living V2 rocket, attach a nitrous booster to himself.

I like Maelstrom Weapon because I like the quest ding and if I take Tempest Fury I get to hear extras

Just started running a diablo build that was on the hots subreddit. Focusing the hell out of fire stomp for heals, dps, and spell power. If you can consistently get stomp, flip, stomp, charge, stomp off you end up doing a ton of damage, healing all the damage you may have had, and giving yourself a poo poo load of spell power for lightning breath. Very, very strong.

Also MW's power is in the late game and is wholly conditional in every way. Conditional to stack and to use. Follow through might do less damage at level 18 if the stars have aligned, but follow through bursts enemies right away which can end the game before that point, and only requires a few smacks to the face to justify.

Ugh how am I still getting the kind of player who gets real loving mad that I, as Auriel, didn't sit on top of him, as Johanna, in the solo lane. We had Yrel also, but Johanna demanded the solo lane and wouldn't hear anything else. He started pouting and didn't turn up for objectives, then starting spamming YOUR WELCOME when he, at the end of the game, as we were killing the core, that he finally destroyed a fort.

With the armor changes, has Anubarak's place changed any? I still seem people picking him plenty on streams. Is he a good all around tank? I like his kit a lot and was wondering about how and when to play him because I never really pay much attention to playing tanks.

Many times I've just gotten stunlocked to death by anub and maybe 1 other person. He also tanks decently but he's more off tank imo.

tanks have a few jobs 1) don’t die 2) lockdown enemies to make them easy for your dps to kill 3) stop enemies from murdering your squishies Anub is great at 2, reasonable at 3, so/so at 1. incidentally Garrosh is incredible at all 3 which is why he’s so good!!!

Maelstrom weapon is my go to choice for crushing chromies. When she temporal loops you, just rocket in and kill her. I don't know about it being objectively worse, but I think it's situational (like above-mentioned case). Really depends on enemy comp. Lots of fatties makes ancestral wrath get tons of value. Up against a team that picked a bunch of skillshot mages, maybe not so much. Hotslog shows MW as being 50.8% winrate, vs. 51.5 and 51.2 for the other two talents. Fake edit - I also think movement speed is really under valued in general. Erdricks fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Jul 8, 2018 |

I don't think that I have ever seen a Garrosh get melted as fast as at 29:10.

I have like eight other reworks that I need to post because I promised myself I wouldn't post anything else until TLV was done. Turns out that was a really loving dumb decision because TLV took roughly a year to do and Blizzard wound up reworking Varian before I could
