Wow, some real gems in this interview

>Overwatch map/maps soft confirmed

CRAWWWWLLLLING IIIIINNNNN MY SKINNNNN

>A: Definitely, Overwatch is an inspiration for us. We hope you will like what we are going to show you soon!
Fucking knew it, overshit event before Warcraft.

tlv dont need changes

At what time will the announcement be?

I think their talents could be more interesting.

>tfw no warsong gulch
>tfw no arathi basin

>announcement

yo say what

After this bit of matches. Probably an hour or something.

>A: Definitely, Overwatch is an inspiration for us. We hope you will like what we are going to show you soon!
overwatch event confirmed
will add two heroes from overwatch as well as a sc hero
prices for some ow heroes will be lowered
overwatch dailies will become a thing

the problem with that is that hey have no default abilities
makes talent options somewhat limited

Sure, but that's not the problem here. Their current talents are badly designed. It's easy to imagine them being more interesting. I'm not even talking about balance, just about fun.

There was supposed to be a 20 minutes panel on the upcoming changes after the semifinals, at 7pm CET, but of course they fucked up the schedule again.

Maps

E-sports are FUN

oh yeah and an ow map
my bets are on it being a payload thing

my bet is on it being utter shit

>The entire team behind the game has about 150-200 people. In addition, the use of course the support of people from other departments are in the company - involved about 300 to 400 people.
google translating that whole qa is kinda fun

that's a given

Dear god please no.
How about a illios brawl?

>misfit throwing

lol

I hope we get a "select maps you want to play" option before we get this shit

>hero announced
>MUH SIGNIFICANCE
>MUH MORE IMPORTANT CHARACTER
>MUH EDGY GRIMDARK
>MUH ANGST AND BROOD

laffin

dead game general

what if the new OW related content is
just the damn on fire thing announce yesterday?

Kings Row
Payload
Core damage on delivery

>stream technical difficulties yet again

thanks blizzard

this is the worst greymane in the world.

>dignitas

/our boys/?

He is literally feeding.

what a fuck up by gayman

>greyman feedlord

Is this the true power of NA e-sports?

I'm sorry, aren't they supposed to be top tier players? Why in the fuck did that idiot chromie used sand blast on the boss?

On what patch are they playing?

When the fuck are they talking more about the upcoming patch?

they didn't fuck up the schedule, it's always been after dignitas and misfits are done touching dicks

the problem is that they've been taking too long

>pfff they are not even good
>doesn't know about bronze talons

lol

That's Fnatic, actually.

Rooting for Dignitas tho, Misfits deserve losing for throwing against an underdog team.

Bronze Talons. The 1 AA you miss out on while casting gets made up for by the 250% damage AA from Bronze Talons afterwards.

To proc Bronze Talons, gives big AA damage.

>Bronze

it u

>temp OR al
>temp OR al
please make it stop

someone should attend one of those events and show a hotsg sign

This is the the power of EU players, maybe one day they will win a blizzcon like US and KR.

>nova skin sign

kinda like this

>implying Cloud9 isn't a honorary EU team
They belonged to us, not you chumps, evident by the fact that they didn't suck balls.
Stop trying to hide your incompetency behind the one team that wasn't actually bad and disolved already.

i don't understand this meme
>nova is player favorite, one of the most played heroes
>make lots of skins for her because she has a large player base so they will get lots of sales
>obviously no point in wasting time on making skins for shit heroes nobody plays since there is no profit in that
why is it so hard to understand?

BECAUSE I WANTED WIDOWMAKER INSTEAD OF THAT CUNT TRACER IN HOTS

Look at what cancer Tracer is, and how good a proper sniper character would be instead.

desu I wish Tracer had 4.5 attack range to offset her FOTM

How, I'm happy you didn't get what you want. Widowmaker may be the worst character in overwatch, literal cancer in everything. I'm very glad she will never exist in Heroes of the Storm. In fact, I think they should make a lot more Overwatch themed skins for non-Overwatch heroes, so that we're rid of the menace of them coming as real heroes. Yuck!

lmao what the fuck is wrong with you

Well this is sad. I hope you guys won the next blizzcon before you lose your mind.

NA cucks mad they bad

I'm sure EU will win eventually user they just need to keep trying, no need to be salty.

>alarak
misfits already lost

where the fuck is that girl talking from? there are only 4 guys at the table
i wanna see if shes hot

Why can Americans not pronounce Fnatic?

>FEEEE NETTIK

she's not

...

lucios

damn, she sounded really hot, now i regret looking it up

Gilly is cute, CUTE!!!11111oneoneoneone

meth not even once

Game is already over.

>these medihv plays

MVP or MVPOAT?

Should I go and see the stream now? I only care for the announcement.

the announcement will be that misfits disband come tomorrow

>misfits BTFO again

laffin @ them

>people bullying misfits
Anons are just hella rude

>throw a 2-0
They deserve it.

I DONT GET IT WHY IS MEDIHV GOOD HES GOT SUCH A LOW WINRATE????

Do not bully Misfits user

>THAT LEYLINE

MEDIHV IS BAD THOUGHHHHH

How come those teams are always 20 something fuccbois? I wanna filled with mature bearded men in their 40s

>hl has mics and practice together
context, nigger. kys

Real men don't play video games for a living.

yes they do. only a real mean has the courage to follow his hobby far enough to the point where it feeds him

>get blown out by a team in the upper bracket
>make a huge comeback in the lower bracket, removing them permanently
Sweet, sweet revenge. With a solo support Tyrande, too.

You become shit at games after 29 years. Reaction time is too slow to do anything anymore.

Can't perform on the same level.

Most men in their forties are either too busy having a job that pays more, is more stable, has better social care and generally nurturing their family.

After 28-30, the reactions aren't the same on RTS's; just see why Grubby retired. That's why you almost never EVER see old men playing videogames at tourneys.

Unless you are the goddamn Daigo of course.

They had Medivh though, so not really solo.

>doesn't like "boring" heroes
fined

who says you have to do it for a living? seniors in retirement homes winning hgc when?

It seems the idiot was you, familia.

alarak btfo

Wait what, more matches? So deep dive in one-2 hours?

go to reddit if you want blizzard responses on demand

for a western clash they don't say which team is from which area. i don't know any of these teams but apparently NA is bad? so is the final going to be between 2 european teams?

yeah, NA is pretty shitty

EU vs EU finale coming up

All teams worth anything are EU.
NA is like that retarded child in your class that always fucks everything up and yet teachers have to let him participate.
The last 3 teams left were the 3 teams from EU and finals is between Fnatic who is all swedish and Dignitas who has 2 brits, 2 french and 1 dane.

what's the go to build for zera
how to play zera

merely asking that question means you're not ready.

they may be cucks but theyre pretty good

Time to probe deep

heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/zeratul#kxVg

Agreed.

PROBIUS DEEP DIVE BEFORE THE MEME GAMES GET HYPED
