Buying Probius just for those voice lines e: also good info: pick the "correct" mega bundle to get the most value, since they don't give you poo poo for duplicates: https://www.reddit.com/r/heroesofthestorm/comments/66jeju/which_mega_hero_bundle_should_you_pick_i_made_a/?ref=search_posts Also  buy the bundle BEFORE you open chests! That way, when you open chests, you get shards for duplicates. If you open chests first and get something in your bundle, tough poo poo

Tsurupettan posted:also i got a spray of lili sipping tea like the kermit meme. TheNabster posted:It could be that it's early days and the correct strategy hasn't been hashed out yet but it could use more incentive for people to actually fight over payloads rather than deathballing on top of their payloads and never fighting each other. I think the winning move is to pick a strategy, any strategy, and do it as a team. So at the beginning of the match, act confident and say "the key to this map is camps + soaking" or "they key to this map is getting 1 fort so they can never catch up". If everyone is trying their own strat then nothing will work. One thing that 100% works mentioned itt is to stall enemy payload in lane so you can soak, get globes, etc. One of my favorite new features:  It showed me I was one 7-minute AI game away from level 10 with ETC. Since I don't like him in HL anymore, I would never have known. That lead to this "ETC box"   Gonna go do the same with the murkster in a minute.

Yes. Not sure the exact number of quarantine games before you get real battlegrounds. Some on reddit say 8-10. They want you to get the hang of mechanics before they throw different map objectives at you.

Macaluso posted:edit2: Since Genji is 750 gems, is it safe to assume D.Va will be as well? I have the 1000 right now and plan on getting her the day she comes out Friendly reminder that loot boxes roll RNG when they're opened, not when they're obtained. If you earn a few the day before a hero release, hold on the them until the day-of to see if you get lucky! Nice of Blizz to give an advantage to hoarding boxes since they don't in OW.

Hot Smart ARYAN Girl posted:When playing medivh, is there a way to automatically travel through your portal as soon as you cast it? I'm pretty bad at clicking on it in the heat of battle. Watching grubby play, he gets through instantly every time. I don't know if he's just that good, or if there's a trick to it. For the first question, no, unfortunately. Would be nice if you could just press a hotkey. You might be trying to enter the portal by clicking slightly too high or too low consistently. I'd just spend 5 minutes in Try mode and get the muscle memory down. It has max priority, so if you right click a portal it should use the portal every time, even if it's really close to an enemy or tribute or w/e

Nephzinho posted:The area denial some of them offer is immense, and getting those forts down offers your team a ton of freedom towards stealing camps and coverign payloads. Forts grant +1 core damage on your next payload. The map is a race, so being able to take more forts faster than your opponent wins games.

Bruceski posted:What's the niche for Artanis? He can't disengage well without a prism juke, he can solo mercs pretty easily and early, but so can many folks. Late game swaps win games. When death timers are so long, he can magnify a small out of position error into death. His durability is hard to predict. For the first 25% of his health, his HP bar falls dramatically so it's easy (for sub-Plat players) to miscalculate how easily they can take him down. Attack the "low" HP Artanis! He's almost dead! He's a bruiser who can deal a ton of objective/monster damage with Amateur Opponent, which is nice on BoE and Infernal Shrines, especially when you need to clear that shaman pushing top lane before joining your team at the objective.

^^ actually the blacked out duder is our 5th, don't remember what champion. That screenshot was after Kael wiped his hands of the matter.YouSpoonyBard posted:So with this 2xwarrior or warrior/bruiser meta, where does Samuro fit in? I've always loved Blademaster since WC3, but I'm wondering if he's at all viable in anything outside QM. Only if the map is merc-dependent or one where stealthies thrive. Curse, Sky Temple, BHB are my favorites. Hotslogs says Towers and Garden also. Your team would do well to have 1 tank 1 heal 1 mage + either another frontline or ranged AA based on enemy team. Sam kinda takes the place of a specialist. He sometimes takes the role of Nova, which means if he's on your team he will suck and if he's on the enemy team you will hate yourself.

He'll do serious work gold and below, no matter the comp. I rode him to Plat 5 and that's when I had to start being judicious for when I used him, since folks start being able to spot stealth shimmer and I can only pick him later in draft and if he fits in the comp.

Support: Malf - any time, esp if enemy stealth. Lucio - any time. Benefits from a Tass or Zarya or 2nd healer to deal with burst. Uther - CC + anti-burst. Preheal with Q when you know nukes are incoming. Li Li - anti-AA + unkillable + assassin-level damage. Tass - your team has a squish AA (Valla, Zul'jin, Tracer) and another healer. Auriel - when your team has a source of constant damage (Valla, Gul'Dan, Lunara, Cho'Gall) Assassins: Gul'Dan - just practice, really. Stay with your tank and healer. Artanis - basically assassin levels of damage, but very durable. Greymane - AOE cocktails do serious work and melee form has armor so you're a little tougher. Cursed Bullet is good in the double tank meta. You have no self heal though, so don't melee solo lane unless you're going in for the kill. Jaina is good but doesn't have durability. Kael can peel for himself, but range is a bit lacking. Only with a good front line.

Just create a Use Map Settings mode for HotS already. You, the developer, don't have to create any storyline or gameplay and your players get all the PVE they want. I'd love the training grounds folks would come up with. "Steal boss challenges v3.0" "Bodyblock as long as possible FIXED" "Dodge the skillshots FINAL VERSION"

Sjonkel posted:I have 5 heroes, so I'm guessing I should go for the flex bundle? Normally I prefer support characters in these types of games, but having a bit of everything might not be a bad idea either. Gold bundle values, assuming you have nothing to start with: Assassin: 145000 Tank: 141000 Support: 131000 Flex: 123000 Support bundle has great non-support heroes too: dehaka is a global-pressure tank, ETC makes plays especially at low MMR, Johanna is babby's first unkillable tank, Muradin is babby's second, Zarya is another great tank/support. If you want to get a non-support bundle, these are the cheap but good supports: Malf 2,000 gold - fits in most teams Uther - great CC and just got buffs Li Li - when they have AA. Can easily replace an assassin or tank if you want to double heal. Sjonkel posted:Also, will goons on discord actually play with a complete noob like me?
