Had a Hanamura game where the payload spawned on the other side of the map. All of us but Genji weren't close to it. The Genji was doing whatever and could easily have hopped on over to get that payload moving Can you guys what happened Good to see Genji players staying on brand though edit: also there are so many people angry that Blizzard DECEIVED them because of the teaser images and then having the hero reveal be D.Va.

Having so many new options for characters is great!! Sonya is great. I had so much fun with Anub'arak tonight Probably gonna give Chen a spin next. Pretty excited to get D.Va when she comes out. Hanamura, to me, seems 100% in the favor of whichever side is better at teamfights. The objectives matter and getting forts matters, but keeping them off the payloads is such a huge advantage. I've yet to see anyone bother with the boss yet, probably because he apparently hits so hard it's almost not worth it. I don't understand why they use the term "forge" for getting things with shards. You aren't forging anything, you're buying them with currency!

m.hache posted:So as a brand new player, are there "builds" that are the best for certain characters? or can you just build them situationally without completely gimping yourself. I've been using the Icey Veins guides on the heroes and it's been working out pretty well for me. There might be other places that do it better idk. They have different builds depending on how you want your hero to work. I've heard hotslog tossed around but that site wants you to turn off ad blocker to use it, similar to how Forbes operates and well. No.

So if you do the tutorial again, you get a loot box, is that what I'm reading? I'm not seeing anything on the screen saying you get one. Or is it only the veteran one?

Why must people lie about sacred things like this edit: NEVERMIND. I got it, they just don't tell you you got it for whatever stupid reason. 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

Lester Shy posted:I want to finish the veteran introduction to see if I get a loot box, but I'm so bad at this game that I can't beat the 3rd part. The thing they want you to do is to just go back and forth between the two lanes and just kill the other team's hero. Ignore the little guys. edit: unrelated, I really wish you could set up loadouts for random hero select. I don't ever want to ride the regular rear end horse or kodo ever. And I don't want my Anub'arak to end up with a regular skin over his cool yellow robot skin. Regular horse mounts are also scientifically proven to cause a team to lose.

chumbler posted:Probius doesn't have much in common with Zagara beyond plopping junk on the map and pushing lanes, but their skills are very different. It can be fun if you like the shock combo, but is hard to get results with and has some lame talents. It can push a lane like crazy if left alone, though. Had a game on Hanamura yesterday with my friends where it was four of us in a group and got matched up with a Probius. This Probius was loving incredible and easily got MVP. He was doing some WORK the whole match. We also easily won that game, and I put plenty of that on the Probius. I think in the right hands he's really good.

I'm doing some AI to A) learn how several of these characters work and B) get some easy lootboxes from several heroes I have almost at the next level. Man, the enemy AI is lazer focused on the objectives while the ally AI ignores the objectives as hard as they possibly can. The AI does not respond to pings by the way

Zarya feels so much more at home in this game than in Overwatch Also what is the... purpose of Murky? I like him a lot a character and his animations are cute and funny and I love how overall goofy he is. But he seems weak and is so easy to kill. How do you play him properly? Keep in mind I've only been playing HOTS for about a month so my view of what's weak is probably way off Macaluso fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Apr 28, 2017 |

Yo so why is the Betrayer Illidan skin not named something like Shado-Pan Illidan or something. Cause that skin's warglaives totally have panda faces on them, and the pants are clearly based on the Pandaren art style. Meanwhile the description is just "Free after ten thousand years, Illidan would sacrifice everything in order to defeat the Burning Legion, prove himself superior to Malfurion, and redeem himself in the eyes of Tyrande." Like uh you really don't want to even briefly talk about the panda faces on your warglaives my dude edit: On the other hand I love that Lunara, Tyrande, Malfurion AND Illidan all have a skin where it's an alternate reality where Malfurion is the one who betrayed everyone, not Illidan.

Well what the heck!! Is there some actual backstroy about why his glaives had panda faces on them?? Also browsing through these skins, I can't believe how many of them have backstories attached to each other. Even Gazlowe and Sonya have a connection in one of their skins. Is there a list of these somewhere that shows which ones are all connected? There seems to be some super hero ones, and Gazlowe and Greymane both have circus ones for instance

Oh man, me and two of my friends had a string of some pretty bad games with Lucios going after lanes by themselves and Novas just standing there shooting and never stealthing or anything. We did one final game for the night, and we all went our A-games. So I went back to my roots with my boy Gazlowe. And usually I take the graviton bomb talent but there was no one on the team to pair it with so my friends suggested I do the buzz saw arms one. MMM MMM MMMMMMM. That was some GOOD poo poo Probably one of the best Gazlowe games I've had in a while. Also earlier in the night I had a game where I just kept getting WRECKED by this Valeera on another character. Like to the point where I'm pretty sure she was just focusing me everytime for whatever reason and I couldn't do anything about it. This game though, their Valeera couldn't do poo poo to me and it felt great buzzsawing her stupid face off repeatedly. Also it was Infnernal Shrines so there was just a constant barrage of turrets going at their team and they couldn't even touch the points. Also it makes me want to always do the buzzsaw hands ult even though the graviton bomb is suggested way more cause man is that poo poo fun

Shadowlyger posted:Again, I just don't think it's feasible to include all of them in a single character. I'd totally be up for Kil'ruk being in Heroes, though. I dunno how it'd work, I'm sure Blizzard could think of something, but the Mantid really need to be in a swarm as one unit I think. You could single out one of the Klaxxi but I think just thematically you need to have them together. That being said of course, there are nine of them. You can't realistically have a swarm of nine Mantid roaming around the map and have it work. I think you need to have like 4 or something and have the other fly in and take the place of fallen one maybe? Or have them fly in for an ult? I dunno. I just like the idea of a swarm of Mantid and I feel like they could figure something out to make that work. (just as long as they don't play like The Lost Vikings). Of course at the end of the day I would absolutely just SETTLE for Kil'ruk cause I loving love the Mantid you guys and even a single one would be fine with me. Then I would also like a Klaxxi voice pack thank you Semper Fudge posted:You (Foolish; grasping at nostalgia): Buhhh, I want more Diablo 2 heroes.

Shadowlyger posted:Hell, there's ten of them if you include Malik the Unscathed, and somehow I don't think it'd be reasonable to just drop nine additional bodies into a battle as an Ult. Not unless they were all really tiny, like Army of the Dead and Demonic Invasion, and I just don't think that'd do them justice. Yeah as cool a Dread Wastes map would be and I could think of a million different things you could do with it, I really want to play as the Mantid

I loving love the talent that drops a bomb when you get stunned. I gets people every time. Also yeah the 20 talent that improves your 10 talent is a loving beast. Gazlowe can but out a loving shittone of damage if you build him right. Icey Veins doesn't really have a satisfying build though several of the suggestions are what I go with. I always take the Turret Storage talent, three turrets is great especially when there's an objective cause you can make like a triangle around the perimeter in a second if you get there before the other team. That build sounds like what I've started using isnce doing robo goblin more. A map like Infernal Shrines, that build will just dominate Also I wish the Nightborne skin for Jaina gave her elf ears so it was like she was actually a Nightborne Macaluso fucked around with this message at 21:36 on May 4, 2017 |
