Heroes of the Storm General - /hotsg/

Probius is literally the worst hero in the game right now, Zagara is a lot better at every level of play

>Specifically, Possession and Unstable Poison could use some buffs
Again with the possession? Why not make it a quest blizz? Like, posses 30 minions and be reward by being able to posses mercs or something

Alarak needs more survivability. As it is now, he's the only melee assassin with no real way to keep himself in a fight. All the others have healing, shields generation, or stealth to stay alive. Alarak only has a tiny heal from his lightning.

>49% win rate vs. 40% win rate

It's just a massive coincidence!

If it was within 3% I'd be willing to concede people need to get better, learn comps, gimmicks, builds, etc.

But this discrepancy, hotdog memes or not, is so fucking massive that it is objectively fucking wrong to say Probius is better than literally any specialist right now, except maybe Abathur. Who, by the way, has a 3% higher win rate than Probius.

The ONLY person to ever play probe with half a brain is some guy that was gm#20 I met in my placements today.
Every other shitter is dead weight with that garbage hero

whats the best anub arak build i need a quick rundown

So they literally got rid of 3/4 of the worst fucking overwatch heroes. In a game with like 20 something heroes the odds really should be in their favor right?

Medivh has a lower winrate than Probius.

Medivh and Abathur are both difficult to play specialists that can be extremely powerful in the hands of a skilled player and in the right team. It looks like this description doesn't apply to Probius, which is therefore clearly the worst hero in the game.

Cho'gall also has a very low winrate currently, but that's probably because many players that know nothing about him are playing him just to get the hero for free.

Burrow. Beatles are good too.

Just don't go webwrap.
I can't believe people need to be told not to go webwrap. Look at the fucking Winrate.

>malfurion
>boring

>zarya
how is she bad in either game?

>pushed heal button on someone at low hp

Exciting gameplay

webwrap as in cocoon?

go back to cookie clicker you noodle tooting imbecile

Is there any interesting info in the reddit Q&A going on?

Al I read was some big changes for Uther, Tyrande, Morales and Alarak but not for at least a month.
Also, absolutely nothing for Leoric and Vikings

I enjoy rooting people and killing people running away with moonfire

swap tassadar and probius' Q and Ws and roles.

fixed?

>Uther rework
FINALLY

Like Jesus Christ that is absolutely necessary.
You know who else needs one?

Leoric. Not as badly as some others, but Blizz promised to look at him some more.
Fucking WHEN?

>clicking on someone to jump on and auto-attack them

Every hero in this game is simple as shit, your comment is worthless.

>buying skins on Xul even though his original look is the best in the game

No, as in foreverial tied up in the enemy team, fully permanently delitized and ripe for the picking for your enemy team to completely consumate you with automatically automated attacks, fully conscious but foreverial helpless to reactionarily react

>Q
Yes.
>W
NO. Give Probius Tassadar's E, give Tassadar Probius W.

>Result
Probius has shields, an escape, and builds stuff. Now buff turret duration and give it two charges with splash damage, and reduce Pylon CD.
Probe is still not a builder hero, but he might support a bit more now.

Tassadar is a proper fucking mage that destroys the shit out of people if they don't respect and react to his abilities quickly, as in SC.
Tassadar character fantasy safed!

I Grubby the best streamer?

>best
No
>mosy useful/informative
Yes

No but you can learn so much about the game from him

No

I think warp rift and dimensional shift need to get put together unless the range on warp rift gets extended dramatically.

you're absolutely right psi storm needs to stay on tass, I forgot about that. I do think tass needs to be a control mage and probius needs to be a utility caster though.

what if we made psionic storm actually good somehow, like a chromie W that deals its damage over 3 seconds?

Guys, I unironically love this game. It's comfy. It's a blizz-style smash bros which is something I've always wanted as a fan of Blizzard growing up in their golden age. This game is pretty fucking awesome .

It reminds me of fucking Angel Arena from wc3

How do I refund Probius?

battle net ticket

This. I swear. It's the most enjoyable MOBA i've played.

>teammate keeps walking into ganks
>"wtf they counter me so hard why is no one grouping"
Haha, yeah! I love this game!

the playerbase is retarded but yeah the game itself is so awesome

???

Well you're fucked

>refunding before the WAVES of buffs that will make him cancer

In retrospect, I should have just went afk the instant I saw we had a Li-Li on the team. None of them ever seem to have a fucking clue where they're doing and do stupid shit like go off by themselves to clear a lane that's already self-pushing.

>my game process crashes around level 10 randomly
>restart
>it stops responding four times before i can even get back into the game
>undecided?
>nobody left in the chat

so is the game down? nothing else implies that it is. is the game going to tell me that i lost a placement when it refreshes in an hour?

the playerbase is literally Veeky Forums.

General Chat is /b/.

I'm not even kidding, I see people openly talking about Veeky Forums and /b/ all the god damn time in hots gen chat. I've honestly have had some good fucking laughs in hots gen chat. Comfy fucking community, but of course there's ragetards, the entire community is a mix of reddit and Veeky Forums.

A good portion of hotsg is cancer. Anyone that complains about QM in any moba is cancer

Shes tied for highest kill participation. Sounds like the entire team was shit and you want to blame the support for not carrying you harder.

>going to replay to hide your identity
>going to replay out of rage to point fingers
>blaming teammates
>Quick meme

Shitter spotted

>that image
refusal

>t. li li player

fuck I'm actually having so much fun in this game, but I'm kinda not liking it because of the business model. heroes feel so expensive

>t. cancer

>Standing behind everyone headbutting my keyboard all game is skillful play guys

>mfw I'm not the only one excited about Cheerigan

Why does Kerrigan look so happy at something and why does it say "blow" ?

I play Valla and Rehgar you fried tomato

Skins in HotS are too expensive and look too shit to get excited over

Why the FUCK would you que into my placement series if you're not experienced in playing all roles?!

>40%
look at qm too. this game isn't all about retards rushing a new niche hero into HL

it's a single player moba
grind gold, pay $0
mute chat
do what you want
ignore ranks in ranked

No one said anything about skill. You bitched about participation implying the Li Li wasn't helping when she clearly was at least as much as Butcher.

Were you the Diablo or the Morales player?

Heroes of the Dorm stuff.

She just had a habit of wandering off alone doing stupid shit, like trying to take merc camps when our forts were in danger, or splitpushing to clear lanes that were already pushing just fine.

And I was the Butcher

She was at least as useless as you if it makes you feel better.

Admittedly, I don't play Butcher very much, so I didn't do all that well.

I do like you admitting she was useless though. Li-Li basically did nothing all game.

>ignore ranks in ranked
>get diamonds on your team
>they feed
hurr durr ignore ranks

I don't have the replay so I can't make any judgments other than comparing stats. All I can say is her build was shit for that game, she should gave gone more damage to make up for the fact that they had Lucio and your team had two supports. No need to have Jugs and 2 Q talents and blind talents for that match up.

>ponyfucker

They are in this thread RIGHT NOW!

GIVE ME ANUBARAK BUILD RIGHT NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

please :~)

Probius is fun, and I actually do well with him, still disappointed he isnt actually a builder though

...

Whats it like to go full beetle build? I know its probably bad but it looks kinda fun

Any other build is bad

It's a skill shot blocking meme build

It's "fine" but not good.

>burning meme
>vampire locust

laffin

>It's a skill shot blocking meme build
Only one talent actually increases the number of beetles coming out and it's actually fantastic for soaking skillshots.
The rest of the beetle talents are garbage, even after the revise Bettle, Juiced it's still completely unviable.

It's good vs Li Ming since you want as many beetles as possible to soak her missiles.

He asked about the full build. I'm not wrong when I say it's fine but not good.

>tyrande is one of the easiest characters in the game to kill
>can't even really heal herself
>mostly useless ults
>the only reason to bring tyrande is for her 4 second D and practically worthless stuns that is one of the shortest in the game
how could they fuck up so badly?

If I had to play hots as much as he has to, I would probably be a bitter excuse making faggot too

I think this'll go down the Hearthstone route and eventually they'll push old heroes into a 'wild' format so they don't have to balance them with all their new shit anymore.

Mewn is a mouth breathing retard and when there isn't an overpowered character to carry him in rank he doesn't fucking budge and it pleases me greatly.

>lucio does more damage
stopped reading there

Dude fuck getting that retard on my team on ranked, my teammates are too busy kissing his ass and trying to get him le ebin plays by building around his pick only to get btfo the non retarded enemy team, I usually call him out on some retarded shit and get the blame for that because I'm just "jealous" of him, fuck off

>blizzard removes duo queue
>mewn can't climb anymore

>alarak rework soon
>focus on "talent diversity"

inb4 they wreck him like they wrecked Zagara

He could become a variety streamer with his Sega Genesis which he has played since the ripe age of 6, but instead of getting anything done there, he plays some fucking H1Z1 clone even more beta than the HotS beta. It's like he tries to be boring, but puts an effort into being extra boring.

He was a GM in s3 user...

She has burst when she hits her stun, but outside of her stun her damage is very low. She gets destroyed by lucio. You are probably mistaking meaningless owl poke, which is a majority of her overall damage, for actual team fight damage

full beetle build is actually very good right now

I wish blizzard would give me silence and block immunity so I could go off on all these trannies and shitters in (((high MMR)))

The healing from beetles does fuck all unless you're up against triple tank or some shit and they don't instantly melt to the massive amount of aoe being lobbed at you.

Thanks for the knowledge, how does that help me withstand the wrath of angry reporters?
