Heroes of the Storm General -/hotsg/

axolotl referred to him as a "blademaster with stealth"
take that as you will

>"The Nexus. A conflux of time and space, where heroes and worlds clash. Sounds like underwhelming science fiction. I mean, really, are you even trying anymore?"

>tfw we could've had Warfield instead of Hammer

DVA WHEN

Blizcon scrub

confirmed for in the works thanks to some data mining
if the braxis easter egg is anything to go by, samuro's probably going to show up soon after zarya
a varian background was in the files so he'll probably get added after samuro
tracer was announced back during blizzcon wasn't she? i'd expect d.va to get announced in a similar way perhaps

It's okay senpai at least you have a real cool OP image.

braxis easter egg?

thanks user
maybe i'll be a few minutes faster next time

in the top left corner of braxis there's some arcades, one of them's got the hots logo on them
try left clicking it and see what happens

ye but flies around while mounted, throws electricity around and he's telekinetic
He's like a wannabe Tassadar

They'll announce him at Blizzcon.
He'll probably be centered around Windwalk (stealth, movement speed, ignoring collision) and Illusions to play with pisitioning. Maybe he can swap places with his decoys to confuse enemies even more. No idea how'd they implement Critical Strike, don't want any RNG. Maybe something like Arthas D, just an activatable "next strike deals X extra dmg". I imagine him like a cross between Butcher and Zeratul, ultimate fun! Watch me get dissapointed in two months

If he comes out it'll be a while until we get Garona, until then we'll have to settle for Orc Hammer for a 5 man orc team. (And yes I know the ZugZug rogue isn't 100% orc)

Thrall
Rehgar
Samuro
Gul'dan
Rexxar (for best results, get green-skin master Rexxar tint)

I meant to do this ages ago but never got around to it.
FREE JAINA

Don't bother, everyone's already used her

WHORE

Who's going to nab Azmodan once he's at 2k gold?

>Gul'dan
>Cho'gall
>Samuro (with red or dark grey skin if possible)
>Succubus Kerrigan

For the Legion!

Azmodan price drop confirmed?

Azmo and Gazlowe.

I have a feeling he might get some sort of stance change or weapon switch ability.
Mainly because back when Axolotl leaked him, Samuro supposedly has an ability called Burning Blade while another is called Zanbatou. Also the old Blizzard Dota wallpaper has Samuro duel wielding swords.
So this makes me believe he might be able switch between two sword types which will influence his gameplay.

Finally
I was waiting for an Azmodan price drop for a while now. Going to get him right away once he's 2k.

I wonder how big Azmodan's balls are

I'm sure Valla would know.

Valla?

Nah, Li-Ming does for sure

Considering how much she plays with balls, that's probably more likely.

>temples are up
>entire team decides to go for a poke fight in lane and let me (Alarak) do the temple

>tfw based Gul'dan will become a slut like Jaina once the movie dvd/bd comes out

>Late game
>You kill two before temple
>4 of your team pile into the temple while you ping the keep/camp hell even boss because it was bot temple
>Nobody comes
Well the keep did end up dead due to temple shots. Did it really take 4 of us to do the temple while we had a 2 man body advantage?

Nah, I think he's our October hero. Probably the 18th, when MoW ends.

That said, we need to prepare for the possibility that the Blizzcon reveals will be mostly Warcraft characters.In 2014, the reveals were Jaina, Thrall, TLV, and Sylvanas. 2015, we got Cho'Gall, Lunara, Greymane, and Tracer (indirectly).

THAT said, they can probably afford to be more diverse this year. Maybe even one hero per franchise.

Varian, Deckard Cain, Mengsk, and D.Va. pls

>mfw I paid 10k gold for this slut

There ought to be at least one Diablo reveal since the 20th Anniversary is coming up in December.
So if it's four heroes then: Varian, Grom, Baal and Deathwing as the meme hero

Feels good to be recognized

Can i use this code or is it one use only?

They see me rollin, they hatin.

when i get lots of votes it makes a sound i wonder if i'm getting any bonus from it

Your e-peen gets bigger.

how long till artanis costs 7k?

Alright, I looked through the tips and tricks and didn't see some general pointer.

What heroes are almost always useful and easy for a new player?

Raynor.

>want to show off new powers and convince backwards Frostwolf to embrace the fel
>tfw your warchief belittles you for it
>tfw some bald Forstwolf makes fun of you for being green
>Hope nobody ever tells Garrosh about this

probably tyrande

>it probably took hundreds of hours of work to make that scene
>let's delete it lol we have enough money to waste so let's just throw away all this hard work our artists did

You know the deal

Post levels

Hammer, Chromie and Zagara used to be a favourite. Only heroes I want to play are Azmodunk (underrated, always a bit of fun and useful) and Alarak (waiting to be 10k) Getting real sick of playing support all of the time too.

Also, since the latest patch my game keeps defaulting to Windowed Fullscreen. Anyone know how to fix?

My favourites actually are Illidan and Falstad

I wonder how many other deleted scenes there are.
>tfw no director's cut ever

Doesn't the dvd have the extra scenes?

It will have them as extras you can watch separately.
But there won't be a director's cut where all the deleted scenes are integrated into the movie itself like say with the LotR extended editions.
Probably had to cut it out for the theatrical release because otherwise the movie would be too long.

And Stukov. Please, give us Stukov.

Don't worry senpai he's going to come one day. It's not like they have a lot of Zerg to choose from.

>from 10k to 2k
Now that's a fall from grace.

Alright, just got 10k, what buy?

>Artanis
>Auriel
>Chromie
>Dehaka
>Gul'dan
>Li-Ming
>Medivh
>Tracer
>Xul
>Zeratul

azmodan

Shit, I didn't remember Diablo is so fun to use, I had a match I was bodyblocking the shit out of the enemy Cho'Gall

>New Heroes are balanced
>Older heros have to be reworked in order to stop from being completely irrelevant in the face of new meta

Whatever, I kind of like new Valla.

>Shitters say new Valla is worse
>Masters and pros say she's better now
:^)

just got alarak, he seems pretty poo poo desu

That's just cruel user and you know it.

Q build does not feel that good anymore

I wouldn't buy Gul'dan just now.
He's going to be a gift with the dvd/bd release of the movie so most likely in ten days you'll have people posting Gul'dan codes in the general.

>people buying physical copy of a movie
>a shit one at that
hah

>ponyfucker

They are in this thread RIGHT NOW!

>Grom only shows up in deleted scenes

Welp, now I have even less interest in that movie

I own Auriel and Anub'arak.

Who should I get next?

>not buying physical copies of your favorite kino

typhus

He's not only in that scene though. You kinda see Grom all over the place in the background and he's kinda noticeable.
Doesn't have any dialogue outside that scene though.

Grom is in like 4-5 scenes in the movie, he only speaks in the one deleted scene.

Kilrogg and Bladefist also make appearances. Kilrogg even has a scene where the camera is directly on him as he screams at the camera and crushes some Alliance footsoldier's throat.

>tfw want Leoric
>tfw completely unwilling to pay 10k for him

Small extra info just for /hotsg/: The knight who gets his throat crushed is black.
So yes, Kilrogg literally chokes a nigga on screen.

ONE LESS TRAITOR

is this game worth getting into?
like hearthstone and dota2 was alright so is this game any good?

...

>first ranked game since the new season
>hmm alright who should I play for placements
>get last pick
>already have a healer, tank, etc
>hmm
>pick Artanis
>go full damage FUCK YOU Artanis
>absolutely rape
>highest hero damage

Artanis is pretty alright

Sure, give it a try.

How come whenever I queue for unranked draft im always picked to do bans? Is there a way i can opt out I literally started playing this game mode a few hours ago

put
>be bronze
in the beginning and it's accurate

How?

eric is special

I was diamond 3 last season though

surely my placement matches wouldn't be in bronze

only bronzies use "rape" unironically to refer to a stomp

Talk shit get hit baka

youtube.com/watch?v=QPntjTPWgKE

I'm sorry that word triggers you user

if you want to talk I'm here.

Posting mine. I need more heroes, but fuck, nobody is interesting to me. I mean there IS Murky and Illidan, but I wonder when the fuck I'll ever really play them.

Yeah, after age 15 or so, "Rape" became cringe-worthy to hear in that context.

just got 4k gold and have a couple of questions

1. Should I keep saving gold and buy a more expensive hero?

2. How do I read hotslogs ranking effectively?

Disregard that, I'm retarded. Forgot my image.

you should definitely save your gold for the best hero to ever grace this shitty game

he is coming soon

youtube.com/watch?v=kBd671LvlZk

>They will never ever rework Arms Warriors to be Blademasters in WoW.

It'd actually make the spec tolerable.

that would actually be fun but we aren't allowed to have any

Bloodlust community tourney is currently going on. Denial were pussies and forfeited all their matches 'cause "we fucking suck and won't make it to 4th" LITERALLY.

Now, before someone accuse me "shilling", I fucking hate Jake, he is easily the worst caster on NA, but I like the idea of community and little tourneys. So yeah, get over here you bastards, shit is FUN. Zoia calling pieces of trash to half the pro players never gets old.

Also, bikini skins FUCKING WHEN.

Naventic is fighting GFE right now, Kaeyoh is casting, he is alright.
