Find the ones you enjoy playing and buy those. Don't buy cheap heroes just to get into Hero League, it's not worth rushing into.

Current list of leaked heroes, mounts, and alt-skins.

The poster who leaked this, had previously leaked Chromie and Medivh nearly a month before announcement and is to be taken seriously.

Nth for Jaina needing mobility.

>auriel instead of Mercy

NO

>no Fenix, no Stukov
>Varian is in

blizz, you fucking idiots

how's that collection coming along /vg? remember to rate, hate and post your own

Your husbano accepts your request for a date! Where do you take them?

Where the FUCK is Maiev????

>We didn't take leakbro seriously when he first showed up
>Now we may never see him again

What our careless hands have wrought....

To get some some ice cream at the cone of cold emporium

>Abathur, Chen, LiLi, TLV, and Murky all lvl 1

Meme game 2 weak, son

I could see Mercy being an alt-skin for Auriel.

They have fairly similar silhouettes.

May as well, I guess. As for yours, Nazeebo and Xul are BORING! It is cool that Butch and Tyke are your highest level. That's a fuckton of Butch.

Anyway, here's mine. It is whatever.

Mercy is almost literally Morales with wings. Better to include a similar character who doesn't have an identical kit to an existing character.

Reminder that blackheart and Raven lord are objectively the best lords of the nexus.

AYO-HIRO AND OBEY

WHAT TASK IS THERE?

I AM YOURS

OOOOooOoh

Lady Nightshade is great.

>Axolotl knew about Chromie all the way back in November 2015

Holy shit

YER ALL PAID UP!

Ka is pretty cool, he's just bitter that these "heroes" are fighting on his lawn.

I actually like all of them but the Gravekeeper
He's a loser

You should definitely try out murky at least.

Mine is coming along. I still want to level up xul and dehaka to 10, just kind of started to play dehaka and he is so much fun, not tyrande fun but pretty good.

Fuck you

I don't like the garden of terror bitch either. But then, I don't like anything about garden of terror, so it fits.

Is that the garden terror lady? She is my favorite voice, her and the raven lord.

"My servants will clean that up" is great.

I love her. She's a hoot.

Raven Lord vs Grave Keeper
Belet vs Ilarian
Blackheart vs ???
Ka vs ???
Lady of Thorns vs ???
Neithis vs ???
Queen Nightshade vs ???

still so much to see

>no Junkrat
Why?

haven't played in a while
not too bad/10, could use more memes though

memetic

looking pretty solid
how do you fave heroes for ranked again?

...

Ka vs Blackhearth bombing each other into oblivion, that could be fun
Also theyr personalities are quite opposite
The sceneario could be Blackhearth assaulting Ka's temples to pillage them

I don't care I want my waifu in this game. Also I want her as new hero because she has to be OP like 3/4 new heroes

>how do you fave heroes for ranked again?
You can just go to your hero collection in your profile and then drag them to your favorites at the top

I always liked Mom from Futurama, so garden map was awesome for me.

neat
thanks

>They're not working on Kel'Thuzad

KT fags btfo

Yeah, I love those kind of voices. I really loved the announcer from TF2 as well, she was great.

youtube.com/watch?v=OMEsFjezgwE

Own a little over half the heroes in gold cost, believe it or not. 183k to go!

What's so exciting about butcher? I had him on level 4 since his first free week.

Nice to see another 1 morales.

Should really try Rexxar. He's gotta that Tyrande-like helpful hunter feel, just not the same tools obviously. Maybe they'll add his Batmobile mount soon too and you can get them together.

I'm pretty happy with most of those choices for heroes other than like Valerian (Why?), Aidan (Who?), and Imperius (He's so fucking boring), but man does this kind of take the mystery out of things or what?

Oh shit, i had a more recent version

You disappoint the panda lords.
Yes, I mad.

kinky

>when a lower hp kills themselves trying to block nova ult when it wouldn't have even have killed the target

press z

I will play xul and BW to do my dailies
Give me the most memetastic builds for each

Love the garden terror ladies voice, but I also love how she delivers it. She has the more civil and calm voice during the day, then she starts to ramp up her excitement at night and when you summon the terror to destroy stuff. She is definitely my favorite announcer, with the raven lord a close second.

>Should really try Rexxar. He's gotta that Tyrande-like helpful hunter feel, just not the same tools obviously. Maybe they'll add his Batmobile mount soon too and you can get them together.
I did want to try him out, but missed when he was free like 2 weeks ago or something.

Blackheart is great. "Yer dead now, welcome to the crew!"

xul: everything skeleton, mages, bone prison on 16, bone spear
bw: everything Q, emerald wind on 10

>LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN HANDLE TWO CHESTS AT ONCE

I really think all the announcer are pretty good except the angel on shrines and battlefield, he is a little bland.

>Arrg, arrg! What?! It's fun to say!

tracer's BUTT...

>What's so exciting about butcher?
Playing Butcher tends to get my blood pumping, it's the fact that you have to decide when to engage because you HAVE no out. I love it, but since Tracer I don't really like the game anymore. On melee in general, and I favor melee very much.

Like the anub on 16, you should have fun with his buffs. Gazlowe higher than Rexxar is a shame tho

.Fuck each and every panda hero.

skeletons xul is far from memetastic friendo

literally just as shit pushing build

WHO CAN GRAB ME BOOTY FIRST
new map when ;_;

desu I'm happy tracers been nerfed to shit now.

giving a hero that much mobility in a moba is fucking stupid

What would Kel'Thuzad's passive be? I'm thinking something that takes advantage of his lich status and shortens his respawn timer.

>there are people in this thread RIGHT NOW who think tunneling murky's egg is a good idea

sacrificing lane minions for mana ofc

Frost Armour

was his wc3 skill and they generally work some of that shit in.

RIP Brightwing

Heres for hoping samuro wont be shit.

Given that you can't control illusions in hots he might end up sucking.

Dark Ritual being a passive that gives him mana whenever something dues near him would be cool. Large amount for heroes, middling amount for mercs, chump change for minions.
Frost Armor would be interesting too.

im praying for the day they release a murky skin that de-memes the hero

actually I think we're hoping for too much.

Uther only got 1 fucking wc3 skill

He's got Holy Light and Divine Shield tho

Ka vs. Neithis

>heroes: drives this.. infestation from my home, and you shall have my favour

You want a noncomedic skin for a joke character?

Hey guys you were right, rehgar is fun!

Chromie is too cute!

youtube.com/watch?v=lQ9_ShYKXhc

it should work better for aggressive melee and it should also be more effective with more than one. far better than oh it's not nova.

the only way is suit fedora katana. you may only transcend what you embrace.

I want to know what her interactions with Tracer are.

Yes, murlocs are fine but a baby murloc wearing a diaper is levels of meme beyond my comprehension.

Who voices her? Reminds me of Rie Kugimiya.

>When a copper dragon and a tin dragon love each other very much
Chuckle'd

>if I start repeating myself, you should probably just ignore me, it's better that way
>quotes loop back to the start
well played

You bitches ready for Scourge tuesday? Poor Chromie doesnt stand a chance.

creating a smurf to play hl is the best advice i've ever received here. thanks anaon!
after 200 games and so much rage about retards ruining my games i reached rank 1 with my main and only play on a smurf since.
i know rank 1 doesn't mean much but it still triggered me when we lost again due to some overextended idiot dying over nothing lategame.
i'm just so much more relaxed about bad playing teammates and instead of flaming faggots i just smile and enjoy their rage. also i can play heroes i really want to play instead of tryharding the meta.

Karen Strassman

She was Nanako in P4.

>also i can play heroes i really want to play instead of tryharding the meta.

Thats the cringest shit Ive heard, prolly why theres so many assblasted fags in this game as they just tryhard the meta like its the bible and bitch when they dont get rewarded instead of playing to their strengths and enjoyment.

...

Is Malfurion a goatman?

no, he is the scatman

so sad that fans of hots that even visit websites to talk about the game cant even play whatever hero they want when they want feelsbadman

I wish anubs rework was bigger and not just some talent updates and flat buffs, more unique stuff like kikeus, but effective

Would you?

...

Of course Auriel is a cutie

Is she black?

That's kind of why I like his Master Skin so much. No diaper, kickin' shorts.

...

No idea, Tyrael is the only Angel that did that mortal changing thing, Angels tend to look black in their unarmored parts as in completely black absolutely dark, but no idea how that translate to a mortal form, also I think angels only expose their faces other than fan art Auriel is completely covered in armor

After Chromie and Medivh there's going to be 2 slots left. Shit I wonder who's going to be the last two.

without a second thought

>yfw they end support and kill the server a few months after

will we ever get cute mecha girl in hots?

>you can literally see Tracer's spread anus through her pants

A videogame! For kids!

>ult turns the entire enemy team into your sex slaves
day 1 buy

>girl

>pig disgusting 3 wheeled shitfucking horseballs goddamn fucking retard vehilce
