Here's a question - who is the worst hero to have on free rotation week? I had previously thought something like Vikings or Abathur but I've seen some Kel'thuzad things this week...last game lasted 20mins and he had 9.5k Hero dmg at the end.

It's still TLV and Abathur, some of the more big brain characters can definitely get fumbled pretty bad, but those two are bar none the worst for having pure negative and pure zero impact respectively in the hands of stupids.

Free illidan and alarak weeks are usually pretty bad as well, but not on par with abathur and tlv

Froghammer posted:So how broken would Rexxar be if you could issue separate commands fully a la Lost Vikings, but with the "you can't get too far away from Misha before Misha defaults to running towards you" leash? Isn't that his control scheme originally was when he came out? If I remember right he had multiple commands he could issue misha that made her much more independently controllable. And then they dropped it for the simplified one he has now

Also TLV is the worst free hero since they're completely useless on 2 lane maps in addition to being hard to play.

I love queuing into TLVs as Murky and completing slime time at record pace thanks to the guy who shows up with all 3 vikes to the team fight.

SSJ_naruto_2003 posted:What? If they're in sonya's arena from the level 20 heroic leap, they won't get knocked out by barrel. You just go into the arena and barrel and start spinning them. It was a funny thing to do back when the game first came out but I haven't seen it in a while Can also add lurking arm now to make sure people don't get out.

I hope the guy who came up with Janitor Leoric gets it free. ToastyPotato posted:Last hitting/denying only exists because of limitations from the original WC3 engine (IIRC) and its continued existence is nothing more than a testament to nerds clinging to arbitrary complexity in games because they think it provides some kind of depth ( and therefore is an accomplishment to learn). It doesn't actually make sense in the flow of the game at all since it doesn't accomplish almost anything besides slowing things down a bit Words of someone who doesn't know what they're talking about! Denying is extremely useful in controlling where your lane is, which is extremely important since you don't want to just smash the wave into the enemy tower like in HotS.

These gameplay changes are weird. No more XP for killing forts and keeps. Catapults only every 3rd wave. Other random XP changes.

Why would adding a catapult earlier avoid snowballing?

so killing a fort gives a catapult every 3 waves also, they're changing armor to not 'stack' anymore

...at all? I thought they'd just make it a multiplicative thing instead of an additive thing, like every game ever has done.

Cuntellectual posted:I hope the guy who came up with Janitor Leoric gets it free. That doesn't change my opinion at all. Targeting my own dudes to manage when they hit enemy towers is stupid. That's even more stupid than killing them to prevent the enemy from getting XP/gold. Again, it is a dumb mechanic born out of Dota being a mod for an old game. And now people defend it like it is some kind of 4D Chess. It's silly and basically a few steps away from being Calvinball levels of silly. Elysium posted:https://heroesofthestorm.com/en-us/blog/22556628/heroes-of-the-storm-2019-gameplay-updates-2018-11-2/ The new booster system seems pretty nice. I'm just happy Leoric finally got the janitor skin. I dunno how the XP changes and catapults will change the game for me at my low level.

I think the catapults change is intended to give an incentive to play aggressively in lane

It's to compensate for no longer gaining a chunk of exp when destroying forts

I thought the chansey was joking by repeating their justification for removing ammo. Halving tower exp is loving lol. They already give nothing.

Your prize for playing dangerously and dominating your lane: a catapult every minute and a half.

Orphea rules, Imperius drools. Anyway no new hero is going to save this game, so I hope there's some serious system changes being considered in their deep dive wise otherwise it's gonna be a real rough year for this game
