Yeah I will probably never play Kerrigan again now that I ground her to 5. Even when you're getting better at her she's so boring.

It bums me out because I remember how lethal she was perceived to be at release, and as the showcase villain for one of their main IPs she should not wallow in obscurity like this. I'm sure Jimmy misses seeing her in the Nexus

I mean, my friend plays Kerrigan a lot and she loves playing her. The best is pairing her up with me as Garrosh and watching people try to escape and being completely unable to edit: With the exception that she has said multiple times that her W just doesn't go off

Kerrigan is incredibly ripe for a rework. I’d say the only heroes that need one as bad as she does are Rehgar, D. Va, and Illidan

Va, and Illidan I don't get the D.va hate, I really enjoy playing her, I love blowing people up and then shooting them in the face. One thing I see bad D.va's do often is not using their boosters precisely, you can turn them off once they started so they can be used as a quick nudge, and since you can't damage the same enemy twice in one boop you can just stop it and go back to regular damage once you hit everybody.

Is uther still any good? I don't see much of him. also am I a bad person if I pick bloodlust on rehgar? The level 20 upgrade makes it so goddamn strong for teamfights.

Yrel being a priority pick in HGC means I can't freely play her in every single draft, it was a good ride while it lasted.

Ignite Memories posted:am I a bad person if I pick bloodlust on rehgar? Yes. If your team is literally all auto-attackers, then it's maybe okay, but I see people default to it all the time when it's not going to do poo poo to save the KT that got collapsed on, barely works on tanks, and is a generally terrible pick next to what is still one of the best ults in the game.

Yes, that's where I got most of my wins done. The El Guapo "100 Takedowns in wins" quest was also able to be completed the same way.

He can also function decently as an anti-dive support with his point and click stun and his stun ult He can't do sustained engages though because he runs out of mana quick if he does. His Lumberjack skin means he's always going to be a top-tier pick

Do eeet Worst case, your number goes down and you don't talk about it. Best case you finish in plat 5 and get to brag. I'm going to have to buy Fenix before another support, he's the first assassin that has really clicked with me. I'm getting a little over-aggressive with him late game sometimes, but I'm consistently putting up really nice hero damage, and somehow the cutting laser just works for me, I haven't had to practice with it much at all. And he's teaching me how to stutter-step with that lvl 1 talent which is very useful. I know he's supposed to be able to solo Merc camps without too much trouble, does anyone have a good resource for that? I don't do so well there.

Corsair Pool Boy posted:Do eeet There may be more to it, but if you take the extra spin on q talent level 1 and the 35% bonus damage to slowed targets, you just walk to the middle of the camp and drop q at your feet. Between that and the aoe damage on autos you can clear most camps before they break your shield.

That was a super fun game, I was li ming. I didn't think we'd ever win a team fight at first. The junkrat is a master rank guy who just clicks the LFG box when he logs on and will slum it with whatever rank and doesn't get too salty, playing with him helps me learn meta skills a lot.

There's a German vikings one-trick who usually hovers between diamond and master, although glancing at his VODs he recently tanked himself down to plat. Grubby sometimes posts Vikings games on Youtube.
