Given the choice, when would one want to take Raynor over Valla in ranked play?

Is nu-Tyrande's healing good enough to qualify as solo support or does she need to be paired up with someone? Basically, when should I try to draft her?

What rank does one have to be to get those, I maxed out at Plat 2 and am Plat 4 right now :(

(e) Nevermind, I get the battle raptor at least, only masters get the Epic one. :( :(

I still haven't actually tried out D.Va yet, and need a good tank/initiator/peeler/etc. type (I've got Chen and Arthas in my personal warrior stable right now) for ranked. I should get around to that.

Stop solo queueing Quick Match, ya dingus.

Is it really that much to ask that the game doesn't try to do this when I don't want to deal with the draft?

I've been spamming Alarak in QM because I want to get better at him but oh my god that is not an ideal environment for Alarak at all :cry:

Have no idea when it's safe to go in and just melee, either. I tend to end up very low on the hero damage count because I just poke and combo only.

What do people think of talents for nu-Alarak? At 1 and 7 specifically, I'm not really convinced that the Sadism-reducing talents at those tiers are all they're cracked up to be--especially the quest talent at 1. It is hard to get to 15, and the reward seems pretty anemic.

Varian not being classified as a tank makes me want to quit this loving game. I just want to practice Alarak!

Time to give up on Alarak a while, I think. I pulled Probius out of a box recently, what's his build du jour? Cannons or explosives?

Probius is so much fun omg. I've found a new favorite character :allears:

Still not sure whether I prefer cannon or warp rift build though.

I should really try out the warp rift build, but I just have too much fun building cannons.

I would enjoy cannon build more if I could actually get the drat things to attack heroes. :mad:

Day 3 or so of Probius spam and I still prefer the rift build to the turret build--even against stealthies, the detection range is so small it's effectively useless

What do you do as Probius against divers like Illidan besides pray?

Thought as much. drat me but QM is getting frustrating.

Also am I crazy or does the 3 active pylons part of the Pylon heroic upgrade at 20 just not work?

Well, go on. Post your pro review of Probius' talents. You're clearly doing decently with it.

Everything but 1, 7 and 16 is completely set in stone; I can't make up my mind on rift vs cannon talents at 1 and 7, and at 16 I regularly switch between the lingering slow, the slow more at center, and a couple times even the reduced spell power talent. Other than that? At 4 turbo on big maps where I'm not scared of dives, shield otherwise (though lately I'm tending more toward always going turbo), Pylon Overcharge always (tried null wall once and totally hated it), shield pylons always and pylon upgrade at 20 always :shrug:

Man Probius turret build just either sucks rear end or completely destroys depending almost entirely on the RNG of their AI. It sucks.

Anyone tried a Q build with him?

Gazlowe is a way better turret specialist, in part because he can control what his turrets focus.

Yeah I'm beginning to think turret build Probius is not the way for me, no matter what hotdogs states about win rate

J ust love the huge combos and having 3 charges of rift really facilitates that

(ed) Also I tried building for Q including the 20 talent and ahaha that is some underwhelming garbagio

100+ games in with Probius now (yep I have a problem) and I still can't make up my mind on rift vs cannon talents at 1 and 7, except in the case where they have a stealth hero. :(
