The Dragonball Z ult on Malganis is just like Auriel's revive ult: you get 2x the effect when using it on Cho'Gall. If you can time it right and your team is in sync, it's a full heal and 2 kills for the price of one. What build changes have y'all noticed in Artanis and TLV? I mostly play TLV in AI matches, and the buffs that apply when your vikings are clustered has been a straight up buff to me. The XP orb change made vikings 3-lane soak much weaker, you need much more micro to play them optimally. In AI matches, I often go Lazy Vikings mode and just do a 3 hero blob, rotating for split pushes if the map allows it. All the patch changes just make me that more deadly when an enemy hero decides to push back. Outside of something like Kael's bomb, there is minimal micro. You can get top objective, siege, and hero damage if you manage your blob right. It's a fun minigame in AI matches where the points don't matter and the score is made up.

When did they make the AI terrible for disconnects and who can I smack over this, because it is an absolute waste of time when there isn’t a surrender option and we have to either 1) lug around a terrible AI that will hearth the instant their babysitter gets killed or 2) leave them in the well and just always be down a character

Surely the better/smarter option would be to pay attention to groups - If a singleton player drops, you just start dividing the XP by 4, instead of 5? (I can already see the problem though - there would be that it'd actually prove advantageous for a team of 4, and make the whole community even more toxic as they tried to encourage the anchor to leave so they could win.)

They would be better off just reverting it to whatever it was doing several updates ago, the AI would at least attempt to play the game even if it was bad.

Certain characters have much better AI than others as well. For example I had a AI ETC and while it was not amazing it at least functioned but then I had a deathwing AI that just stayed in the sky 75% of the time and when it did land it was always at the wrong time and got gibbed. Also, if someone is AFK/AI in the first 5 min. of the match it should just cancel.

Sickest thing I ever saw in this game was an AI Anduin yanking me back in the middle of me being garrosh thrown. I didn't even LAND before the golden wings were upon me.

Also, this game breaks people. Yesterday in a BRAWL after we lost a single team fight our Uther declared GG and just sat in the hearth the rest of the game, when he did go AI he rejoined right away. This went on for over 10 min. What state is someones mind in to get that upset over a brawl. Out of 100 brawl games I don't think I have ever seen anyone get so upset that they would do that.

Brightwing AI is God tier, with super human (AI) reflexes for polly, I'll always take a dumb following bot Brightwing over a human player. It will literally polly a genji mid dash, renders so much stuff useless that way.

No blizzard obviously paid gobs of money to get Elsa in the game to revive it by bringing in the Disney crowd. The disney characters will be new heroes to play.

Exactly what HotS needed: the worst character with the most frustrating style of mechanics (slows and freezes) from the worst franchise.

See, I told you! They would never be awesome enough to give Ragnaros a snow skin edit: Lol the salty twitter replies. Specifically the ones that are like UGH ANOTHER OVERWATCH CHARACTER (there has not been an Overwatch character added since 2017. There have been 13 characters released since Hanzo) Macaluso fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Jun 14, 2020 |

hi it's not that nobody likes overwatch characters because there's a lot of them, it's that nobody likes overwatch characters because they inevitably get overloaded kits that are miserable to deal with hope that helps

people aren't mad about "a character that's from overwatch", people are dreading another Release Genji or Release Hanzo and considering how much people hate dealing with Mei in her native game they're entirely within their rights to be worried about blizzard loving this up E: post is not edit, whatever

To be honest I'm not really sure what Mei really fufills in HoTS? Like we already have a freezey/slowy caster in Jaina and a freezey/slowy bruiser in Arthas? I feel like Mei could only be one of those two as well. Orange Crush Rush fucked around with this message at 02:34 on Jun 15, 2020 |

Obviously, Mei will be able to do what Jaina does except she'll be able to do it while she's moving and probably make ice walls so you can't run away (even if you could run away while she's stacking a progressive slow on you with her ice cannon while she's chasing you).

Also note that Ana is one of two Supports with an above 50+% winrate on like more then 4 maps although I think that says a lot more about the current power level of supports more then anything

When I first googled "why is it snowing HotS 2020" I was 100% sure the character was going to be Mei then they tweeted the Alterac(?) pic of an orc/troll building ans some barrels with arrows shot into them, and I was confused because that has nothing to do with Mei other than snow then they tweeted Mei's lil robot eyes and I still have no idea why they posted the AV orc building. Everyone already knows it was gonna be Mei. I am curious how her skills will differ from "Jaina, but with a Tassadar force wall" Jaina has Mei's autoattack, her ice block, and blizzard / ring of frost are basically Mei's ult as well. Tassadar has an impassible wall. What will Mei do that is new and different? And how terrible will it be??

A dev said a week or two ago that there would be 'multiple' new heroes this year, but they specifically wouldn't release two at once. So no idea what that first teaser is supposed to be. Unless it's like, an orc skin for her or something.

On his release Hanzo was severely undertuned and had around a 42% win rate even in the high-end leagues. It took two months of buffs and bug fixes before he became good-to-great depending on who was playing him.

After two months that became the basic long-term situation yes. But when he was very new he was so bad that even pros didn't want to use him.
