Heroes of the Storm - /hotsg/

So is Cairne

Still, you're one of the worst kinds of Blizzdrones

t. someone who never played non-RTS Blizz games, they're garbage

>lorefags think they matter

oer laff per thread because im actually sad 4 u

What brings you here?

RTS are dead, I had to settle for MOBAs or turn to something productive. Still got Aba and Vikings for those cold sleepless nights. Probe sounds cool too. Just give me one more snowflake in Mengsk Blizz, then you can release whatever memes other people want

"Dude youre really bad at valeera, you really dont want to be splitpushing, but using early aggression with CC to get us early fight advantages, even if you cant outright kill people you can get them low inside your combo so they cannot follow up for objectives and we win by pressure. All you did earlygame was try and splitpush which got you killed."

"WHATEVER TROLL IM IGNORING YOU NOW!"

: I

Obviously Maiev.

Remake:
Nova (shes dogpiss)
Tyrande (dogpiss #2)

MekkaTorque in giant robot suit.

Male Barbarian because hes fucking iconic.

Deckard Cain - Specialist

Firebat hero.

Zergling Hero that starts out super weak but "evolves" but has a fuckton of quest talents which if he completes "evolves enough" it becomes one of the hardest and fastest carries in the game.

WidowMaker.

Anybody else notice some weird matchmaking lately? I've had an overall win % of 53, but for 3 straight days now I've lost every single match. I get mates that don't lane, healers that try to solo engage, the works. Coincidentally, it's been 3 days since my stimpack expired...

They changed matchmaking in QM to be much more loose. You get people with over 1k difference in MMR in the same teams

Are you guys ready for some fucking quality weekend Hots?

More changes to give quicker matches.

I've been on teams with abathur and 3 mages while the enemy team is a 4 stack with 2 supports and 2 tanks. It's a disaster and I expect thry change it again soon.

no this game isnt even fun

>just queued as lucio
>team is me, monk, cho'gall and murky
>become unkillable. fast as fuck, 4 man death ball while murky murks the forst
>tfw

"oh oh oh it time to accelerate"
enemy was malf trynade abathur arthus and stiches if you where wondering

>tell someone to git gud as the game ends
>get angry whisper after game
>try to reply
>blocked
>report them for abusive chat
This shit happens so often. Can't the people playing this game handle anyone who doesn't praise them?

>diamond 1 last season
>finish placements 3-7
>gold 2 this season

really gets my synapses sparkin

is there any chance that they add and fix probius photon turret talents?

>be grandmaster
>make Smurf
>Queue with grandmasters
>Gold 1 placement with ten games played
Fucking blizzard MMR needs to change faster. Here's to hoping I get diamond next try.

>Algalon

Yes please. What would his kit be?

what are the problems with them?

>gets carried to GM MMR with duo queue
>thinks he actually belongs there
>keeps getting carried by the rest of the team in solo queue
>actually belongs in gold
Yeah they should throw the shitters down to the leagues they belong in

>play as Valeera in QM
>round isn't going well at all, they have no one diving or overextending, I can't initiate without getting blown up, play it a bit safer
>angry russian noises throughout the game
>as we lose, the russian says "report Valeera, she's using a bot program"
>this person is not accepting whispers from people who aren't his friends

What made him think that? Why did he not use English in the first place? Why wouldn't he stop being a feeding cyka blyat? Sometimes I just don't know.

Just report and move on.

My WoW bot raking in the gold
Almost time to buy another token

Why is Johanna so flat? Do you think she's insecure?

You don't get banned in hots for botting in wow right?

no turret talents after level 7

What is there currently?

no

maybe its, you know, the huge chestplate pushing her boobs in

Before release? Zero chance
6 months from now? Maybe

They don't prioritize heroes, that's the biggest problem.

Collect minerals, at 70 turrest have 25% more damage, reveal and can look over obstacles.

CD gets reduced by 1.25 seconds every time a hero gets hit by turrets.

That's all of them.

>huge chestplate
It doesn't look big at all, like it's hugging her torso

>Doesn't know how chestplates work outside of anime

Nigga real life chestplates are wide on the chest for deflecting blows and stop piercing weapons before they reach the wearer's chest. They also have more than enough room to house boobs, I'd imagine it'd hurt like fuck for women to wear armor that squashes their boobs. There, that's how they work.

I don't think Johanna is using one.

isnt there a video on youtube that shows why boob shaped armor is a bad idea?

youtube.com/watch?v=eF-5ryUHAHA

Boob-shaped armor deflects blows straight into the sternum, hence why they suck, yeah.

That wasn't my point though. Thing is, Johanna doesn't seem to be using chest armor at all, just clothing. She's pretty much flat

I really like Valeera's design except for the stupid fucking shoulder pads.
I know it's silly to complain about shoulder pads when talking about a WoW character but still, she would look so much better without them.

her master skin is based also on wow armor but looks much better, get that

Best MS in the game imo, even the tints are good.

like 90% of boobs are just fat, exercise burns off fat everywhere, Johanna has to be reasonably fit in order to carry her heavy armour.
ergo jojo has small boobs.
simple

I wish the hood was red on the second tint, the black hood just doesn't look right

>Those tears in the leggings
I never noticed those before, my deg has now become 110%

Man what a shame. She should get at least an outline.

Yeah but the boots look so much better in hots.

>Greymane, Valeera and Sonya in favorites

I like you.

Whos the warcraft specialist?

Weeaboo kt

...

It's kel'thuzad except gender swapped I think

KT will be a mage who sacrifices minions to deny xp and gain mana

cancer desing

I don't think exp denial will ever be a thing. I see KT summoning his own shit and then sacrificing it

Cancer dosing

blackhearts bay and warhead junction are the best maps i mean this unironically porvme eowrnggg

cursed holw is also good

kys

KT will actually be a core replacer hero who sits in a necropolis hovering over the core and can temporarily deploy Naxx bosses to harass the enemy team.

Nope.

>tfw all my friends botting on multiple accounts for years rarely ever running into issues, just setting up new accounts if they do
Almost feel like I'm missing out, desu.

>when your team throws harder than tensai

There is no map more fun to snowball on than Blackhearts bay. If you look at Faye's stream last night I played a game with it and we had like 50 coins

Man, I was really interested in a probe hero but he looks so boring to play. The W+Q combo is all he has and his talents are so shitty.
You can't do anything with unstable rift on its own until level 16, so before then it only exists to do combo damage like if you could see Chromie's dragonbreath before it lands. Pylons don't do anything but give you mana unless you take the ult or the aura buffs at 13. They're both on shitty boring lunara whisp talent tiers where you can pick one and that's it for the whole game.
And a turret that doesn't attack heroes above anything else is seriously lame. It already has twice as many ways be killed compared to a normal turret/summon and the spell armor talent doesn't even affect itself so it will die at random against any team with AoE. It's really sad that none of your talents even make it better at fighting but just buffs for yourself instead.

OFFICIAL MAP TIER LIST

>Great tier
Dragon Shire, Infernal Shrines

>Good tier
Tomb of the Spider Queen, Braxis Holdout, Towers of Doom

>OK tier
Sky Temple, Battlefield of Eternity, Cursed Hollow

>Bad tier
Haunted Mines

>Shit tier
Blackheart's Bay, Garden of Terror, Warhead Junction

Artanis already does the twin-blade protoss tank

He should be a specialist in dragoon form

>tomb of the stale queen
>good tier

kek

Rate. Any heroes I need?

Haunted mines is absolutely shit tier. It's almost impossible to come back from anything when your team is behind and since it has the sappers from Towers of Doom it only takes a second for the team with an advantage to build that advantage even further with a huge exp boost for ruining your structures. The golem isn't even that strong once you get it. If the losing team manages to get a 100 skull golem for whatever reason it might last long enough to get a fort and the next gate.

>get Towers of Doom
>forced to fight on behalf of that faggot Grave Keeper

Sylvanas the only really competitively viable character you are missing.

I'd say Leoric but since he's at level one I take it you are not really interested.

Chromie, maybe?

>forced to fight on behalf of that faggot Grave Keeper
He is a fucking fag.

I don't think I've been playing during a leoric free week. You're right though I don't really care for playing 3/4ths of these heroes. I just want to play Rehgar and Valla in ranked.
I'll try to get everyone to 5 for that gold though

i still cling on to the hope that theyll make kael like he was in warcraft 3, where his nova spell actually felt and sounded like fucking flames coming down from the sky, it was my favorite effect ever and instead you get a shitty burst spell that doesnt even feel like fire

"kys" get cancer fuck you generic passive-aggressive moba faggot >:(

Place Warhead junction and blackhearts bay together with cursed hollow on God Tier and move Dragon Shire down to shit tier because it fucking sucks dick it is so dull

:)

I'm sure it's probably for readability reasons or something like that, but it really is unsatisfying, and empowering it just makes it look worse. Like some kinda weird updraft rather than a pillar of flame.

I dislike any map that doesn't have a boss. I feel like they're outdated and dull. I'll even take the crappy sand boss that deals 0 damage

Dehaka is good, Kerri is good with/into specific comps. Artanis is really good. Sylvanas and Chromie are also played

I wish the other bosses were even half as good as Warhead Junction's, or even 1/4 as much of a team based objective as Braxis.

I also hate maps that "enables" Vikings to play their shitty hero. I've never lost to a Vikings in ranked, and I've only lost with them

Do we expect anything from Pax East?

From what I see, the top 10 requested heroes (besides Maiev, in no order) are:

>Kel'Thuzad
>Deckard Cain
>Reinhardt
>Blackthorne
>Tosh
>Artcurus Mengsk
>Lei Shen
>Velen
>Mekkatorque
>Malthael

I agree with ^. Cow King needs to happen or I lose all faith in Blizzard.

Is Stitches back? Been seeing him more and more lately and have a shit winrate against him.

>lei shin

Laffin @ pandafags

Personally:
Imperious
Reinhardt
KT
Garrosh or Grom
Anduin
Magdha
SC2 Marauder
Multiclass zergling that morphs at level 10 into 3~4 possible roles
Adjutant
Feathering

Wtf is this list

What's wrong with Lei Shen?

youtube.com/watch?v=Q51B6M70QBs

His lore, aesthetic, and uniqueness are all good desu

The spoiler is Deathwing

Autocorrect memes.

>SGT. Hammer
