If you get anything higher than the level of the chest (rare out of common) you're +EV. If you get double rares out of a rare you're +EV. This doesn't change if your rare is an actual item or just shards.

Between 30 some odd boxes and a thin assassin roster going into today I'm up 8 heroes and the skin I wanted most.

Thanks blizzard. Thizzard.

It'd be nice if they added a toggle for what kind of party you're looking for when you tick the box. Playing with the mfpt guys is nice but seeing a dozen open groups and not knowing who's looking for draft when you just want a QM is kind of jarring.

Maybe it's on purpose to shame people (me) into drafting?

Thrall is a heat seeking missile for people that are trying to walk out of a fight. He does the cleanup thing but has the bulk to actually participate in a team fight unlike genji.

A couple of months back. I think it dropped at the same time as the Arthas rework?

Given the VA I don't think there's a reason not to build Alarak for Q

E: qm threw chromie into a game vs Chogall, valla, valeera, and the butcher. I was chromie. It felt like being a mouse dropped in a snake pit.

Re: assassin bundle.

It's rarely a bad time to play Nazeebo, and Valla is evergreen good. GulDan and Greymane are both good at what they do.

Honestly just play nazeebo and learn how to spider people. He's good at a lot of things all game long and if a game drags out enough for you to hit 175 stacks of voodoo with the level 20 quest he's an absolute monster.

E: Thrall is in a really good place now and feels real good to play. There was some handwringing over the nerf to his passive heal but it wound up alright. He has a lot of weirdish quests so it might take a couple of games to feel confident on him again but they're fairly easy to figure out how to finish quickly.

It was pretty messed up for Tyrande to slaughter a bunch of other night elves just doing their job (it's dramatically worse than murder as we know it because night elves were immortal at the time). That always felt like it was taken a little lightly in WC3... actually I disliked Tyrande a whole lot back then.

It was right after the night elves lost their immortality at Hyjal so it's even more hosed up imo.

:goonsay:

Her wc3 kit was a single target ranged damage+dot, blink, aoe damage, and her ult was Vengeance which creates a pissed off shadow that further raised a ghost army from corpses.

With her wow stuff I expect some kind of stasis ult.

It was right before (happens during wc3 campaign, immortality ends at end of wc3 campaign). Immortality meant not aging or getting sick I think.

:goonsay:

Does the Sentinels campaign from Frozen Throne happen before the battle of Hyjal from base wc3? This is very disturbing.

My sense is that her trait will be blink with level 1 talents for temp stealth/damage/defense on use, and a basic root/slow. Her shtick is hunting people down so maybe some kind of target marking mechanic.

Kerrigan doesn't have any quests right? What other heroes don't have quests?

I just checked the client:

Leoric, Muradin, Garrosh, Medivh, Johanna, Malfurion **And D.Va** only have 1 apiece.

Anub'Arak, Gazlowe, Rexxar only have 1 and it's regen master. Kelthuzad has phylactery.

Artanis, Raynor only have seasoned marksman.

TLV, the Butcher, have their traits but no quest talents.

Non-quest-havers:
Rehgar
Abathur
Tyrael
LiLi
Kerrigan
Sgt Hammer
Nova
Brightwing
Sylvanas
Li Ming
Lunara
Sonya

e: for reference, the 1 talent folks have:

Garrosh: Groundbreaker damage, CDR on completion
Leoric: stacking attack speed on minion/hero kills
Muradin: Storm bolt damage on hero hit
Johanna: Punish slow+
Medivh: Master's Touch
Malfurion: stacking roots treant damage

Her block talent at level 1 does not get used up by fast attacks, for example tracer or tychus, or in the middle of a team fight if a lot of people are attacking her. So she basically has 75% perma-armor in those situations.

Queuing solo/duo into QM is reasonable, no way in hell I'd do it in storm league.
