Gustav posted:Remember how garbage infernal shrines was before people learned to bait the punisher? Now it's one of my favorite maps. Shrines was garbage because it only took 30 minions to clear the Shrine, and they didn't scale health over time, and the Punisher had too much HP, and leaped to a random hero instead of the closest one. And Arcane Punisher lazers did super ridiculous amounts of damage. Then they changed all that and Shrines suddenly wasn't garbage. Amazing how that works.

Keep in mind the following. If there are a bunch of characters you know you want to get, get that bundle. Otherwise, go here and put in the heroes you own (remember that some heroes are on free week rotation and you don't actually own them): http://gibraltargamers.com/hots-calculator/ And pick the one that is the most gold value.

That's a way better team comp than 5 squishy assasins with no sustain vs 4 assassins (two of which have sustain) and a Varian.

GenericOverusedName posted:I'm still debating whether or not to take fishy deal with murky there, it seems really good to snipe the solo dude camp and grab that team heal. The only reason you should ever NOT take Fishy deal is if they have stealth AND you think you'll be able to use the egg to reveal it (so fights over a stationary objective). It doesn't even matter what the mercs are on the map or how many lanes or whether you think your puffer will be contested in lane. If you don't need to reveal stealth there is no reason not to take fishy deal.

It helps if they have fatty tanks on the other team. Or just if you are going full Q build, well, you have 5 charges of them so if you hit any of them it's a bonus. It also works on bosses and stuff.

It should just be more like the Hanamura brawl. Two or three shrines that activate different payload routes. One shrine at a time goes live. First team to activate it push the payload, it's on a timer. If they can't push it in time the other team gets the shot. It would be better than the brawl because there would be no ridiculous 8 second respawns, so getting kills would vastly help you push/defend and not make the game last forever. Maybe after a few singles multiple shrines could go live, really depends on how long the timers are and how many core shots you allow for. I would also consider giving the team that activates the shrine the choice to attack/defend, but I'm not really sure why you would pick defend. Maybe if you had a global or a split pusher who was near the shrine, and there was a teamfight going on far away, you would activate and pick D, because you probably can't push it yourself all the way, but on D the other team has to come, and has already wasted the first ~30s getting there.

If a guy is a "5" that means he's level 500 something, who cares about the exact amount. If you're over 1000 the game makes you uninstall and take a break.

So Hanamura: at the QM, low/mid ranked level, if you knock down both of their forts and keep them from knocking down your forts, you are going to win the game. You don't really need to defend them pushing payloads, I mean, you should put in a token effort, but don't get wiped for it or lose a bunch of soak. Try to defend the payload as it crosses the lane so you get XP. They are gonna get it eventually. You don't need to be in a hurry to push your payload, you're gonna get them eventually, and they'll be worth more shots (with both forts that's almost HALF as many payloads you need to push). The camps give a shitload of XP, so if you can bribe or otherwise quickly do the camps, you don't even really need to soak both lanes. Just commit to pushing the forts, you don't have to 5 man a single lane, but splitting up over and over again to try to get picks, defend payloads, push payloads, rotate lanes, etc, is all a waste of time. If you get the forts down you win (assuming the other team isn't capable of just wiping you over and over). Obviously if you can get a keep that's super awesome with the sappers that spawn after. Have had a lot of teammates recently angry about people not pushing payloads or defending with their lives or whatever. None of that poo poo matters unless they are going to win with the next payload or boss.

I'm a big fan of attacking the tank (note, I didn't say worthlessly blowing all your cooldowns and mana on the tank). If you kill the Tank you cripple the rest of the team's ability to fight. So if the enemy tank is just going to put himself out there to be killed, and your team can simply safe focus him (rather than trying to force something by him to get at their backline) then go for it. The problem is when people *don't* attack the tank and just let him stomp around CCing people and loving you up because "DON'T FOCUS THE TANK!"

Hotslogs sample sizes are plenty large enough to reliably represent the population (select multiple weeks for lesser picked heroes and talents), though there is likely some skew from self selection bias based on the type of player/level of player that uploads games, but it helps that all 10 people in the game get included when just one player uploads.

I really don't like the term "backdooring." Sneaking in as Abathur or Zagara or Medivacing in and destroying the core is backdooring. Walking in through the front and killing the core is... frontdooring.

The thing about Hanamura is I think it potentially could be a good map if they radically changed the payloads to an attack/defend single payload objective like the one Brawl. Mines and BHB, on the other hand, cannot be saved, and should just be scrapped entirely.
