Page one is gonna last forever since there's only like six goons that play this and there's never any big events to talk about, so yeah ground floor I'm actually super excited about this Nexus Challenge and I'm really glad to see that they're putting a lot of effort into trying to get more players into the game. Here's hoping they get enough players into the game that the TL matchmaking pool gets large enough for it to not be poo poo!

Tsurupettan posted:what's the build for this? i used to play a lot of tyrande a year+ ago but havent touched her since. Weirdly enough, the highest throughput healing build is the owl build. Get good at landing those shots and your cooldowns just straight-up evaporate. Once you get the penetration talent at 16, your heal is basically up whenever you want it in any given teamfight as long as you hit 3-ish guys. Pick all 3 owl talents, the heal boost at 13, and your choice at 7, 10, and 20, except don't take Lunar Momentum at 7.

Blizz please make Pixie Dust give Armor for the duration and not block charges because block charges are pretty worthless in this brave new era of heroes having ten auto attack ticks per second.

Lemon-Lime posted:Change all block talents to giving you phys armour for X seconds every Y seconds, like Spell Shield. Spell Shield is great! Spell Block is one of the worst mechanics in the game and I have no idea why they have it in next to actually good mitigation things like Spell Shield. Spell Shield will protect you from taking spell damage, full stop. Spell Block will either save you from Pyroblast or do next to nothing to stop Disintegrate.

SKULL.GIF posted:What hero has Spell Block? It's on talents. Brightwing can grant it with Pixie Dust at level 13, Ragnaros and Li-Ming both have talents that give them charges when they land skillshots, and I think there's a couple more that I'm not remembering.

Awesome! posted:how does chogall work? like what does each person control as far as movement and abilities Cho gets the movement, melee attacks, and can chuck a bomb. Gall has nearly no movement control, ranged spell attacks (no autos really short cooldowns), and can detonate the bomb Cho chucks. Basically Gall is a second ability bar, controlled by another player, stapled onto Cho.

Am I reading the Season 2 post correctly in that they're still not changing anything about how TL duo-queuing works, just adding an even bigger warning for longer queue times? Did I just hallucinate that they were planning on bringing up match quality by adding a much stricter upper bound on how sloppy the matchmaker would get as queue times increased at the cost of significantly longer queue times, or did they walk back on it?

bamhand posted:All they said was they're looking at options. And that they definitely weren't going to allow solo queues to join in on team. Anything else you assumed was going to happen was simply you thinking Blizzard would do something besides nothing. Actually, I was referring to the thing that was in the PTR patch notes: quote:Team League Looks like this is actually in the main patch notes too, so either they forgot to announce this on the Season 2 page or they forgot to remove it from the patch notes.

So basically now the only purpose of keeps on Hanamura is to power up your next shot at the cost of massively extending on a map that otherwise never requires you to move past mid? And they're adding an extra point of core health to drag things out more. I'm not sure this is much of an improvement. I like the XP on payload change though. Now a team won't fall behind in level for actually bothering to engage with the map objective.

Love my Zerg Russian. What do you mean by "self-root cooked into E"? Isn't he already immobile while channeling E until he cancels it by moving? (Or do you mean that he should have to hit E to cancel it?)

Power Bottom posted:So Rare skins have unique animations, special effects, and all that jazz, right? The Bone Visage skin for Xul that was recently released is rated as Rare, so I decided to pop into Try mode to see what was different. You're thinking of Legendary skins, which only sometimes have different VO but usually have different special effects.

Fuzz posted:Missile build really can murder the gently caress out of people if you get good at aiming... especially with manaball and the 3 hit extra damage talent since you only need the 3 hits, not all 5 to hit. You just poo poo direct damage on people really fast and it's hard for them to dodge if you position well, especially if they're a like Butcher or Azmo. This, except Fireflies. The missile speed basically doubles, making it even easier to land, and the decreased mana cost and cooldown lets you spam it constantly. There's nothing more satisfying in this game then that cash register ding! you get when all three missiles hit.

Did they walk back on the decision to despawn the second boss camp on a map if the first one gets captured, or did I make that whole thing up in my head? I was playing on Cursed Hollow yesterday, got boss, and was still able to get the other one while the enemy team was dealing with the first.

All of the Nexus announcers say “keep” and “fort”, but for whatever reason most of the character announcers only say “fort”. Alarak, of course, uses the terms correctly.

I know I’m not having fun unless I am literally screaming wordlessly at my monitor while frantically mashing buttons, praying that Moonfire comes off of cooldown fast enough that I can give Malthael just barely enough healing to survive for one second longer when he’s dove so far past the enemy frontline that nobody else on our team can do anything to save him at all.

The Raynor nerf I want to see that nobody seems to be talking about is to give his banshee the same health bar as Nazeebo’s Gargantuan and Kerrigan’s Ultralisk. It’s pretty insane that something that does so much damage is so hard to spot in a crowded lane.

How are you supposed to be playing Whitemane to get the real good numbers? I can reliably get moderately high healing numbers but for a damage-dealing support I’m finding it hard to keep my damage numbers up.

I’ve never been able to figure out how other Tyrande’s keep sticking so many arrows in people. I always take the hunter’s mark talent at 13, which I guess is better for helping people focus down a specific target, but it doesn’t help my numbers so I always scrape the bottom of the damage charts.

I would like to take this moment to thank Blizzard for advertising to the entire game that I am the proud owner of a “Boost” and that they should be thankful for the five percent additional experience that they will be earning. I enjoy the callout in chat when the game starts, I enjoy the icon next to my name on the scoreboard and upvote screens, and I especially enjoy the large, teal explosion that shows over my character’s head shortly after spawning. I will enjoy seeing all of this happening for the next three hundred and sixty days, as I purchased one of these “Boosts” at a steep discount.

There’s a tiny little line in the patch notes about reducing hero radii by 5-15% across the board, which seems like a huge nerf to every single skillshot-based hero at gold and below. Please tell me I’m wrong and that they’re just referring to the little circle drawn under the models, not the actual hitbox?
