Maybe I was dumb to keep trying Grubby's Oracle build? And/or I'm not so good with shields? Who cares now I can release the kraken

PantsBandit posted:I almost always take soul stone = increased health regen over spell armor. The spell armor can be nice when you're facing a ton of casters but the health regen at 100 soul stone is just so absurd. You don't even need a healer really, any time you take some damage you can just back off for a little bit and you're back to being a mountain of HP. On that note, the talent that makes Soulstone increase the heal from fountains and healing globes is also ridiculous.

Dietrich posted:Always take Apocalypse, use it when the other team has been slowed, rooted, or stunned and/or is grouped up so it's difficult to find a safe place to stand in the chaos. It's not an initiation CC it's a pile-on CC. Apocalypse is really good when you're being engaged on. Either they keep moving forward and their back line gets hit, or they retreat and their front line gets hit, or they scatter and you can jump on a straggler.

Shadow Charge has armor naturally, the talent just doubles the duration. Somewhat related, it took me until today to realize that Tracer's melee smack was an auto-targeted ability.

So when do you use the different Stukov builds? I haven't played many games with him, but have mostly used Grubby's CDR build, which seems solid.

I pretend lurking arm doesn't exist and take the weighted pustule talents instead. I get more damage and slows, and I can focus on healing and smacking with the heavy autos instead.

Yeah I just use it with root talent or if the enemy team groups up. Seems like a big "jump me" sign.

Did an unranked match and the picks went: Blueso: Tracer Redsies: Lili, Johanna Blues: I highlighted Tassadar, the other dude highlighted Uther. But when I locked in Tass he switched to Lunara. Redso: Greymane, Cassia Blueso: Guldan, Chen It seems to me the Guldan should have gone a full support? There are an assload of blinds and he got all salty about Lunara and how we needed "push" and more damage. Although Lunara of course did the most damage despite the blinds. I get what he's saying but in a situation where you have no full support and no tank, shouldn't you do support? And not a third assassin? We lost of course.

Lprsti99 posted:Well, I mean, blinds don't affect spells, only autoattacks. Appropriatemetaphor gets that. He was trying to say that the Gul'Dan picked a mage because their DPS wouldn't do poo poo in the face of enemy blinds, so he needed to bring a mage. Never mind the fact that Lunara blinded doesn't lower her dps much, unless you literally blind her every time she tries to auto anyone, and she misses her AOE thing.

I think he just really hates Lunara? He said she's only good if you have a lot of slows/cc, but like she can slow people herself? I dunno, this dude like pm'd me after the match defending how great his Guldan pick was.

Varian's Logosh skins are unbelievably bad. Probably the worst skins in the game, and his silly hat skins are pretty hideous as well. Definitely a good candidate for actually getting something cool.

Snow and robots make me think Volskaya instead of Hanamura. But the stones look medieval, so probably not.

Maybe they'll have an Overwatch theme month like Machines of War. Debut Volskaya, redebut Hanamura. Bring out Ana & Trashmouse. Toss in Firebat like MoW tossed in Zarya. And it ends just in time for Blizzcon to announce a giant fuckoff dragon.

Apparently Uther is busted right now. Each hero you hit with W increases the damage of your next W cast by 20%. This or other things have somehow managed to take him to a 54% win rate, second only to Malth.

Playing with tcjimbo is like lion taming. When it works out, you feel a sense of accomplishment. When it doesn't, nobody feels sorry for you because you did this to yourself. I don't mind playing with tcjimbo but apparently my non-goon friend couldn't handle it and ragequit during our TL game No Wave posted:Varian's Logosh skins are unbelievably bad.

I remember playing with tcjimbo and having him talk about how we didn't have enough wave clear for the whole game then he rage quit. We went again as 4 and drafted 4 specialists and had our pub last pick garrosh. We won that game so hard it was insane. Tcjimbo is a genius.

I always enjoyed playing with tcjimbo but then he said I sucked and I shouldn't play this game and he blocked me I wasn't sad about the mean things he said as much as not being able to play with him cause it's loving hilarious watching him rage.

Last time I played with tcjimbo, he wouldn't stop talking about how excited he was for some anime starring Jaden Smith, but was upset that they didn't cast professional voice actors instead of celebrities. Then he got mad that someone drafted a different character than he suggested, because we had apparently accidentally drafted the same team comp as one of the teams at HGC and he wanted the last guy to pick to match it.
