Play all the heroes on free rotation and see what types you like. Don't buy heroes just to get into Ranked. It's not worth it.

First for Jihad.

Tyrael best hero and best husbando.

For pony mount.

do you think auriel is a nigger too?

>tfw 1 win with Jaina after roughly 13 consecutive loses

Bros, i swear i am really not that bad...it's just that in literally every fucking game there's that one guy who doesn't team-play/afks or forgets to ban. It's like i am cursed or something. Also i wanted to level Valla up to 9 and i'm not that good with her, but still this is bullshit.

Funny thing is, even after 13 loses i still love to play.

also tfw i have a Win 3 games quest for 5 days. JUST

Tyrael is insane right now.
Have a 90%+ winrate with him in master league since the patch.

Wish his trait was good. One of the worst in the game desu
What talents do you go for? I had a pretty standard build before the patch but some stuff(like Battle/Angel Momentum) isn't there anymore. Don't know how to build him now

so my duo dodged and lost 0 points but i lost 460 points yday

uhh blizz?? like, hello?

Elves are for ____

anal

You are at the bar and this guy slaps your waifu's ass and offers you a drink.

What do?

>implying sonya wont bite his head off after he touches her

cute

making dwarves angry

Are the worse dwarves then Warhammer dwarves though? They seem really, REALLY set in their ways.

who wins in a duel

greymane or butcher level 20

Butcher if he lands lamb, Greymane otherwise.

Ask him why he's slapping his own ass and take a swig.

i don't know if the whole grudge thing they have is a meme or if they actually remain angry the entire time after someone has wronged them

they're probably always really pissed though

they are eternally jealous because elf girls are sex goddesses and dwarf girls are fugly

>embodies Guan Yu’s honor, loyalty, and strength
>lets sell it like all other skins XD 4 SHEKELZ!
>becus virtues mean JACK SHIT
>lets just sell some peoples' hero and icon

lol my hate for blizzard entertainment has grown stronger now

im not asian, literally hear of guan yu for the first time, but this kind of shit makes me pissed off, very disrespectful, extremely, up to the point of the developers deserving of getting burned alive in a cage

dedest game

The elves and dwarves in Tolkien had grudges and most of western fantasy takes root to his stuff

come on how nobody gives a shit about this, lol. im SUPER pissed off, blizz never pissed me off like this before, and im here for years, even with their absolutely retarded matchmaking in hots and OW. this is just as shitty as running over ppl with a truck in nice, or the jews killing pagan europeans, or the jew driven christians massacring native americans, lol. i wanna bomb blizzard HQ because of this shit!

Fuck off. I'm glad they're finally making good skins.
>Disrespectful
Settle down Reddit. I can't imagine the dude would be insulted by having a homage made to him two thousand years after his death.

OY VEY
>I can't imagine the dude would be insulted by having a homage made to him two thousand years after his death
implying he would care about portrayal in some shitty ass video game
but even if he would, nobody would like themselves to be sold around, if u use words like "honor, loyalty and strength" then maybe have enough honor to spread it around for free, raise awareness so to speak? yep, exactly that, awareness, because there is none of it when it comes to virtues in our days, only shekels, memes and degeneration

>at diamond 1 promotion game
>lose 7 games in a row because of dumb shit like
>tass + li li
>last pick tassadar vs chogall
>muradins and chens throwing their corpses into the enemy team nonstop
>sonya dying to mercenaries on sky temple

fuck

everything

Lunara posting seems at an all time high. Sell, sell, sell. Lili posting is down.

Kerrigan posting is going to increase soon

> not realizing you are literally the only one who cares

You commented where you linked, as well as bitching here
stay in Reddit pls

Not really, no. Kerrigan design is total shit. Not even Species-tier.

Why is ranked full of retards who don't know how to draft? Like why would you pick Morales and Hammer into a team that has Greymane, first pick Chromie and Stitches?

>diamond 1 demotion game
>diablo gives first blood
>starts typing like a retard
>"LOL U MAD BRO!?!?!" etc
>proceeds to throw the game by running into towers all game long

I dont understand the people that play this game

alot of the more experienced people are probably quitting or going to QM due to the further retardation of Ranked matchmaking. I'm not seeing alot of the better players playing anymore and alot of people's ranked seem to stagnated, I'm not really seeing people move up or down anymore.

This. I'm 3500 mmr in diamond 1 and constantly matched with 2900-3200 shitters in diamond 3. It's the worst.

Probably going to quit playing HOTS altogether soon. Everyone is terrible at this game.

So...let's NOT pay the people for working on this?

>people's ranked seem to stagnated

but goyim everyone needs a chance to win and have fun

Tyrael is a based black man, not a nigger. Imperius is a nigger.

Same here (been close to master a lot but just haven't gotten there yet, getting closer last few days) And I'm just sticking to QM. Most people play it and it's far easier/faster to get into.

Whenever I play, I only really soloqueue QM or teamstack with my gf and/or friends. I tried in Ranked, but it's really just a uphill battle that's not worth it. Shame too, I really wanted that Epic Lizard mount.

You don't have to charge everyone every time they open the client to make money. So...let's fuck off and get an argument instead.

>sonya dying to mercenaries on sky temple

Literally how? You can solo those shits at like level 4. Was that Sonya boosted?

>mfw Grey(das it)mane is on my team most of the time
>mfw they wreck shit 24/7
So why did they buff this nigger already? He was strong as it was. Meanwhile Jaina gets nerfed in the same patch.

This exact same fucking thing happened to me.

jaina's talents being rearranged was actually a buff imo

Jaina's winrate has gone up a ton. 3.9% since the patch.

People don't know about merc lord, they either go some shitty "i'm a tank" build, or just the standard with follow through

>People don't know about merc lord

She doesnt have merc lord anymore and the only way sonya dies to mercs is if she starts a hard camp with less than half her health and even then a spin here and there will do the job or ferocious healing.

How many weeks 'til Auriel?

>She doesnt have merc lord anymore
Yes she does you fucking bronze

Lunara threads are the best ones

The real question: will she have above 40℅ Winrate?

Where the FUCK is Maiev????

>not wanting to drink demon juice with a boss ass hero like guldan

what are you gay?

I want global skill shotter

Soon...

Mediocre skin. The skill effects look shit with that skin too.

>50 post in 7 hours

this general sucks

What must we give in return?

Dehaka or Artanis master skin ?

Those 2 ugly ass niggas are my only choices?

is this game still shit

it was fun in alpha and slowly became worse until skeleton king was released and became impossible to play

is it fun yet

...

if it wasn't fun for you when you left, it won't be fun for you now

I'm new. How to get carried to GM?

play doe

>takada is back
can it be??

>tfw an 18-0 kerrigan game
Thats the thing about bronze players still havent caught onto the meta and waste all their bans on lt. moraltard

literally who

go back to /r/heroesofthestorm

Can someone explain to me why they buffed regen globes? I thought they wanted damage to be more meaningful

Buddy, I think damage is "meaningful" enough as-is.
The idea is meant to shift some of the focus off the health fountain and towards gathering globes, encouraging globe denial and resulting in more fights.

i bet youre the faggot posting about traps and reddit

His trait isn't bad. It's supposed to make him trade evenly in the early game so he can reach the late game and carry.

Most of the time I go for
Reg Master -> Amplified Healing -> Zealotry -> Sancti -> Imposing Will -> Holy Ground -> Hardened Shield

Occasionally the shield or smite talent on lvl 1 and sometimes blood for blood.

...

Artanis's is better but Dehakas is pretty good too, which do you play more?

>tfw top siege, hero, kills, exp as best doefu
wish she was real.....

ITT we come up with hero concepts that aren't already in the game:
>a hero that runs super fast (Tracer doesn't count since she blinks around)
>an anti-mage hero that burns mana and silences a lot
>an "unmovable mountain" kind of hero: big as fuck, large healthpool and slow movement speed
>a hero that replaces the core and gives buffs to allies
>a hero with an ultimate that prevents him from dying, like Tryndamere from LoL (honestly surprised this isn't in the game already, and would be perfect for Grom)

>muh hero concepts
>muh lol
fuck off with this faggotry, we only want cute waifus here

reddit may be more your speed

A hero whose AA attacks become stronger and faster the less mana they have.

A hero who can appear to be a different hero on your team.

Also, the prevents him from dying thing has been done with Johanna. At 20.

a hero that's entirely dedicated to microing around other units
no skillshots, no auto-attacks; just an armchair general

>Medivh free week

>thrall

>muradin

>kharazim, johanna

> >Medivh free week
I collected a lot of free wins in ranked already. Sadly I also had a couple memedivhs, so it kind of evened out

now we can finally do the meme team
all we need is a medivh and an abathur player

Draenei when?!
Lady Liadrin, Yrel and Tirion prot and ret paladin when?!
Anduin shadow/disc when?!
Velen holy priest when?!
Maiev tankfu when?!
Lady Vashj when?!
Azshara snakefu when?!
Genderbent Diablo heroes with different kit, warrior as proper tank, monk as tank/asssasin fucking when?!
Blademaster when?!
Kel'thuzad fucking when?!
Selendis or Izhaa meme hero with her commanding a mothership and only supporting from outside the map when?!
Dragonfus when?!
Cairne/Baine Tauren chieftain when?!
Tichondrius when?!
Mannoroth, Archimonde or Kil'jaeden when?!
Shadow hunter Vol'jin when?!
Zul'jin when?!
???

Grubby already did that, but with Murky instead of Medivh

youtube.com/watch?v=tbiFzgl6-PA

Also, now Cho'Gall is viable?

I would LOVE Lady Vashj

This may sound super random, but I love the sea and everything related to it, and the only hero who has somehing to do with water right now is Murky

arthas and jaina use water too :^)

Can't wait for the true waifu.

Then team Illidan will be possible

>Illidan
>Lady Vashj
>Kael'thas
>Johanna blood elf skin
>Brightwing (maybe)

All the blood elf skins look terrible. Like low quality terrible.

>it's always someone else
>not the guy with 13 losses

>spin lunara around
>no deer or horse pussy

yeah that's why I'm not convinced at all

>>Johanna blood elf skin
Hell no, that's the worst skin in the game

>no deer or horse pussy

You are triying to check that in the same game that forbid Tychus from having his cigar

Pure skill

The core shileds regen faster than that thing can damage it, making it impossible to being destroyed only by it

Git gud
