They are in this thread RIGHT NOW!

sorry i'll stop stealing your job it's just too much fun sometimes

This is the first time I've browsed /hotsg/ today, and it was this thread, which says 'indev video soon'

>ponyfucker

soon

Where is this under? I looked in the HotS documents and main installation area and couldn't find it. Also did a global search for 'heroes.stormmod' and didn't find anything.

Yes, Dark Wanderer soon :D

Samefag here. Also used an 'Everything search' program and that also didn't find shit.

cascview

nova skin

I'm glaf we're so slow. Much better than the dota/lol generals full of nonstop shitposting.

Fuck them all, someone needs to put and end to reddit.

I'm going to do it /hotsg/, I'm going to destroy reddit.

Why do people act so stubborn in light information that would only help them? Is it pride? Stupidity?

I don't get it.
>medic

Should have picked the party bus

Bronzies don't know shit and think themselves far more knowledgeable than they actually are.

They have shit for game knowledge and shit for brains too. I can't think of an intelligent person with a bit of experience to be placed below d3.

Laffin

Both drafts are shit but I expect blue to win.

I hope you lose, cause fuck you I'm on forced loss games.

blue won
>both drafts are shit
what?

Red has no waveclear, no global and then chromie with a divecomp. Anub just gets chewed through by Raynor but then I suppose jumping on Raynor is how they'd win fights so that evens out.

Blue has Raynor which I suppose is an ok pick if they banned Tychus and then Stitches who doesn't really offer anything. Muradin ands Varian would've been far better in my opinion, maybe Diablo or E.T.C..

Chromie will never be in range of Raynor or Li-ming which is why Stitches was picked, Stitches into Malf root is 100% kill

Exactly, Chromie is just shit but then they only way for blue to lose is a massive cc chain and all those other tanks can prevent that from happening while also being mobile enough to hunt backline. Sticthes is picked to kill a target that doesn't matter at all because there's no good targets for her.

Isn't Johanna close enough to a Paladin?

why the fuck is the discord not linked to

I've played nothing but Valeera for a week for this skin, since her base one looks like shit and tints for base are even worse. And now I'm sick of her and won't even use the master skin. The viscious cycle.

lucio and zarya honestly look fine
tracer is the only one who looks objectively bad

Why do that to yourself? It took like two years of Chen before I got the master skin, because fuck grinding.

Because base Valeera looks like shit, I've said already.
And I had the 1 week stimpack, so it was the best chance in foreseeable future.

It's alright, I haven't even played in like two weeks and I only check to see if there's a new thread for ponyfuckerposting.

Playing her in QM is hell
If you're against a bad comp the game is just no fun at all, but in draft format with/against a real team she's one of the most fun heroes in the game

we should play some day if you feel like it

>tfw everybody is too much of a bitch to play TL
>even just placements
just

because all you see in chat is
>LFM TL Dia+ only
>inspect profile
>theyre Plat
How am I supposed to find a TL group for placements when everyone wants Diamond players?

>play QM

when will it end..............

what does ello hell mean?

Person is stuck in a rank and claims it's a "hell" they cannot escape from

hory shit

ELO Hell refers to a fictional ranking place in the League of Legends game in which players are doomed to be stuck in because of the amount of newbie / troll players being randomly selected in their teams and making them endlessly fail games. The term is mostly applied to the Solo Queue and Duo Queue modes affecting the lowest ladder of the ranking system, namely low ELO rating in the first seasons of the game and Bronze V to Silver I nowadays, and has been embraced by many players as a way of expressing frustration when they lose games after games, being used in any MOBA-like game featuring a rank system.

Please apply yourself.

They should make HL tiers lock in. Many other players an I don't play league at all because we are too afraid of falling down from our hard earned diamonds and shit, if once you reached a tier, you were not able to fall into lower tired, the HL would have twice as many active players.

>00000

How would encouraging sitting on points make HL more active?

Why are you worried about falling? End of season rewards are based on highest rank earned

fucking KEK

anyone who cares about skins, tints or other cosmetics is a retard

What should be my emotions towards people on my qm who purchased the 20 dorra skinnings? Jelly? Pity? Anger?

Okay guys. It's leakage time. Due to it's new season Blizz will make a cross event with Overwatch again.

(X)Doubt

>Unlocks a new skin for Tracer in HoTS
Never gonna happen like that.
You only get free heroes and mounts in this game.

>mobile, low dps tank
You mean a Warrior that's best classified as a bruiser?

>Recall Agents
would be an interesting ability if it was something with charges that people could use as an instant hearthstone, I doubt they'd put something in the game that could potentially be used to troll.

They've done it with Diablo 3 before

>tfw perfectly land chromie combo with extra center damage too
>bring the shitter from 100% to 1%
>tfw the fucker manages to get away with 1% health

When you play Chromie you need someone to finish them off, Tracer/Chromie is a good combo.

the real leak guy uses a trip you impostor cunt

Indev when?

i did it reddit!

>54,454

how beautiful.

Until Valeera comes along and ruins your day

>andorhal anomaly

I laugh at meme elf slut

>level 18
Yeah, sure. Jaina counters Nova because she can use ice block at twenty :)

>chrono sickness
>regular old trpa till then

SHES INVISIBLE I CANT SEE HER xd

You're bad if you think Chromie can do anything against a Valeera

You're bad if you think she can't trap her and walk away.

>1s delay if you actively place it, and no valeera is dumb enough to run into one they could see
>or just stand behind it, making the trap fairly obvious for anyone not stupid
The only way you're gonna trap any Valeera is by putting it into sideways and bushes. And you could catch any other hero like that, too.

Nope she can't see it.

>Valeera walks up to you pressed D and Garrotes you
Do you stand on top of your trap all game?

Yes I can, if you put one down while I'm walking up to you. I will avoid that one, by the way.
If you had previously placed one, I'll take a look at your positioning to deduce the location of your trap and avoid it. Because I'm not a dumb shit and have all the time in the world with my superior movement speed and your inability to hit me with anything if I juke you (I will).

Chromie can't do SHIT against Valeera in an isolated environment. It's a different story in a teamfight if she's preoccupied with something else, but she loses in every other scenario even if the Val player only barely manages to scrape by a two digit IQ.

>eat peanut

Loling out loud laughing right now

the solo league is just impossible to get anywhere.. i keep getting retards constantly and i just can't carry everyone by myself

What do I take on 7 as Naz? They all seem pretty bad

Spiders.

Corpse Spiders is really good

Why are so many people Diamond? I swear there are more Diamonds than any other league whereas in games like League of Legends the average rank is mid Silver

Bad players either switch off their border outside of HL or get boosted in TL and use that instead
I also imagine a lot of hots players quit playing when they realize they're shit

>tfw diablo's kit would be great if not for his stomp and ultis

His Stomp and Ultis are used for zone denial and to punish bad positioning. He's strong with follow up, remember he used to be pick/ban when Tyrande was good

I remember when you had to get a talent on Diablo just to make his stomp return to him and deal a little bit more pitiful damage

>when you remember pre-rework diablo
it's a good thing he got revised

if you're going full spiders, go spiders

If you take Blood Ritual then Dead Rush lets you basically rotate to clear lanes with a W and a Q.

I remember murky sliming towers and having no death penalty. I cried

apocalypse is a noob trap

nobody ever gets hit by it

always pick lightning breath to delete the one squishy you single out

t. 260 iq grandmaster league

how bad is it
heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/nazeebo#oS3i

I agree with you
Unless you can combo into apoc it has no value other than making people step out of the way

I like it, just get ice block or superstition instead

i picked up the game when johanna got released so i never got to witness that
i only witnessed how hard the vikings got screwed over by scaling changes

>Finally earn 15k Gold
>Try a few games out with Lucio
>Moving around the whole map with wall rides to help out wherever I'm needed
>Knocking enemies away from me when I need to run
>Sound Barrier super helpful in team clashes
Why is he so much fun to use?

how the tf do I play chromie

also I want to BREAK HER with my DICK

You don't pick Chromie. Seriously it's that easy
I had sssfaye that goddamn abomination of a human play her on my team and get shit on

Learn how to hit her skill shots. Have your time bomb on top of you.
