Someone tell Grubby the tierlist has no Lili and two TLV's.

What is the best Auriel build you can do? I'm a new player and she's my most played. Any tips for her as well?

there should be a "remove shit OP" option in the report window TBQH

Zagara is really weak atm.

Probius completely stole gazlowe thing and I hate it for that.

I have no problems playing as her. 3/5 times I get MPV because I can either autism push on my own or pop in and stir up shit with a few well placed roachlings in their back line.
Or a Devouring Maw to just silence their entire backline.

So whats the point of the first 20 minutes of each game when one late game teamfight decides everything

Try playing Probius, if you're doing well as zag you should do even better as a more powerful hero.

I do play Probius occasionally. Still do better as Zag.

reminder that hots is a degenerate tranny game

>the first 20 minutes of each game
>first 20 minutes
Most games are over in 20 minutes.

Probius seems boring as fuck to be quite honest

I'm sorry for the OW players feeding, we're not all like that.

I mean
like
it's possible to win in the first five

not sure how dota is but in league an ace at 30-40 minutes is generally game, at least outside of bronze-silver

Yeah thats my fucking point
Every single game lasts until a SINGLE end-game objective team fight
Regardless of who has been winning the whole game, whoever wins that fight wins the entire game
Literally all you need to do is soak until that teamfight

>make thread early b/c op thinks it makes him a special snowflake

kill yourself op

Temporal Flux or Archon on Li Ming?

>3 abaturd games in a row

fucking stop it

Coming in from /owg/ just to say suck it nerds

Some times the game is hard.
They had 3 healers, LiLi, Morals and malf.
Killing them was impossible.

>not understanding the game this badly

How did you even type that message being as retarded as you are?

LIES

>its a team fucks around doing no damage and then bitches at auriel for not healing episode again

I didn't know this much anger could be possible

Don't give up user, you'll get there.

Fuck off autismo.

>Tfw playing Samuro on Hanamura and owning every camp on the map.

It's like the only time I don't feel like a useless piece of shit as Samuro.

>tfw was finally reach it
>abathur first pick on tomb
>reach it again
>early nova
>third time is the charm
>or maybe an illidan into brightwing/jojo

to top it all off I've got a hardstuck plat 1, 1000 point smurf

make the pain stop

Temporal Flux if you have disintegrate.
Archon is terrible because it disables teleport.
If you went Wave of Force you take Tal Rasha

>capping mercenaries as Samuro
Congrats you're doing his only job right.
Still, it's a shit map and thoe camps do jack shit for the teamfight or map progression.

>there's a chance porn will finally be made of prime evil Diablo
On another note does anyone have pic related with text?

Anyone know who drew this?

alternate to hotslogs talent builds?

No, I get that, but the camps on Hanamura are worth really good experience. Doing mercs as they were up so long as I don'y have anything else important to do, is worth as much as just sitting around soaking most of the time. It's that good. The only camps with items that actually give you a good advantage are the Medkit camps, which most heroes struggle to solo, but Samuro does it easily.

So, Medkits and massive amounts of exp in mind, I feel like Sam and his mercing are especially useful there.

I use Icyveins

That was after my placement matches

Play the hero and figure out what works yourself

>do friend games
>help user who do I pick I'm new to this
>do you have Gall
>Yeah I do
>alright I Cho and you can just press buttons all game
A lot less stressful this way

There's IcyVeins, but I'd recommend taking what you read with a grain of salt.

Tyrande best girl and best butt

don't you forget it

until Ysera and her big dragon bum gets added into hots.

Turrets are sick, don't even.

You can buyback in Dota so being wiped isn't as brutal as in other ASSFAGGOTS.

Also, if you wipe the enemy team it all depends on whether or not Roshan is up so you can get the Aegis (Which brings back whoever picked it up back to life with full hp and mana.)

>play 3 versus AI matches
For what purpose? I thought they wanted people to play more multiplayer or is this just blatant pandering to casuals?

How would she work in HotS?

I think almost every single of her abilities fits into HotS already.
Except the ability to hack health packs. How could that be changed?

>>>/owg/

>why is this casual game pandering to casuals

NO SPICS ALLOWED

Seriously? They seem like complete garbage to me. Though to be fair, they do seem like better Gazlowe turrets so there's that.

>Lt. Morales

Hack Merc Camps

>still no Malthael

it's only a matter of time before she gets ported to HotS.
the only more obvious choice would be Ana.

>tfw Fenix in HotS will play like Fenix in SC2 coop

>take the talent that gives energy based on crowned person's damage taken
>slap that shit on Johanna
>fattest heals of my life

auriel is fun, I have no idea why some of her talents are quests that require whipping people into walls though, that's just dumb.

Question: does the crown give you energy if you put it on Gul'dan and he life taps?

No, since it's not damage taken

No.
The secret about Auriel is that she's a low damage mage with a heal button.

So stuff like Empower Sulfuras, that says "your next basic attack" does that count as spell damage or physical when you hit someone?

how can we fix the pick/ban phase of mobas

Ability damage

>have over 3k games played
>under 100 of those are in AI games
>get a quest to play 3 AI games
Why am I getting this shit?

Chromie is a miracle of the universe.

>want to play hero league
>know i'll get put in low silver and drop to bronze
>no one in Veeky Forums chat will want to play with me knowing im a bronze shitter

sucks to suck desu

Being too autistic to play multiplayer is too casual

I want to play chromie but I'm just so bad with her

What? I've been in grand master and I don't even check that shit with people I group with

If you're too scared of placing Bronze-Silver than you're worse than those that do.

She really is.

Okay, I've paid my dues vs AI, I no longer ever lose against them.

I've fucked around in QM, gotten pretty reliable wins, even carried a few teams of retards out of some underdog situations.

I feel as though I'm ready for ranked. What should I expect? Anything different about it?

Who should I play between Malf, Leoric and Zagara?

Do some unranked draft and see how you fare there. Malf's good, zagara no and leoric to counter double tank

If that tier list in the op is anything to go by, Malf is probably going to be top pick.

I feel like you get can some use out of Leoric in ranked, but I feel like the higher MMR you go the less likely people are going to fall for your drain hope/entomb memes.

Zagara is shitty poo poo.

would you?

Wait, what's so bad about Zagara? Is Nazeebo any better?

all night long baby

>I've paid my dues vs AI, I no longer ever lose against them.
There are people playing this game who have lost against AI?
Why haven't they killed themselves already?

damn, girl must be like a jungle down there

>Is Nazeebo any better?

gazebo is bretty dam gud

Zagara outclassed, nazeebo is good. Make sure you have good heroes for every role because you don't wanna be that guy that can't do X

as long as you listen to pings and such youre good enough in my book
t. master

>it's another OW babby feeding as Sylvanas with no skin vs Rexxar

She's just not optimal. She's squishy, has no mobility, is pretty much the first to die as soon as any assassin/dps character proceeds to exist in her vicinity, and much of what she can do is done better by other characters.

Nazeebo is better, yeah. But like said, you'll want to have a solid pick for any role that you'll need to fill. Thats why they want you to have a handful of characters at level 5 before you can play ranked, because at that point you should have a good palette of heroes to pick and choose from.
