Play all the heroes on free rotation or try mode and see who you like. Don't buy heroes just to get into ranked, you'll regret it.

>dat leg/arm size difference

user...

user are you a retard

Come on son

People always talk about Diablo or Gul'dan being the bad guys, but Zul'jin trumps them all.
>Make way for da bad guy

quality bait

also her leg is whiter wtf

honestly i'd smash that ass

What are good heroes to pick up for start? I have been doing somewhat decently with Artanis and Arthas, Jaina seems alright and had some good games with Azmodan, though dude seems fairly situational.

gul'dan
thrall
varian
uther

FUCK YES

>401x226
are you playing from your phone user

reroll

no fuck you
i accidentally uploaded a thumbnail forgive me

i havent been playing ranked since 2.0 hit nor do i intend to until the overwach shit blows over
my question is, is cassia auriel a thing? i imagine it must be pretty good considering shes probably the highest dps hero in the game right now

>playing hots on your ipad

lmao

I was starting to think I'm the only one who likes probius here.
Don't care about skins though.

>this retard actually thinks there are OW shitters in ranked

thoughts?

>not 200
Step it up, senpai.

Does does the exp after level 10 work.
Does it loop back to level 1 tier or does the requirement just keep on growing

>this retard thinks overwatch shitters are the only kind of shitters resurfacing after 2.0

It plateaus.

so i'm basically fucked out of lootboxes if i want to play ranked with a limited set of heroes?

Do i get probius or w8 for dvass

prior to 2.0 it would've kept on growing
now it just stays at the same exp requirement you need from 9 -> 10 i think

not really, you still get loot boxes for every hero you level up
you'd get more boxes faster if you were to play as heroes you haven't levelled to 10 yet but you'd still get boxes

No.

why not both?

Let's assume at least one hero per month after D.Va. Who else do you think we'll get? Name at least seven.

wait for dva reveal and see if she looks like fun

Are those piss-bottle bombs?

where do you guys go for skill builds for heroes? hotslogs seem pretty shitty nowadays

Just pulled blue mecha Tassadar, too bad he sucks right now.

I'm playing this game as max casual and just make it up as I go along.

icy veins
some of it is a little outdated but they have good descriptions for each talent on the details page that help me understand their value

Malthael
Imperius
Grommash
Broll
Tirion
Velen
D2 Paladin.

Don't know much about Starcraft, and fuck Overcancer

I haven't been playing this game long but I think Nazeebo is my daddy.

>Korea
>Picks Uther into Lunara
>NA thinks Lunara counts Uther

5 wins, 4 as Valla. If they ever ban/pick her I'm fucked.
Playing matches where people actually talked about what to do next was kinda fun desu. Beats QM.

>That guy that bosses everyone around and gets pissy if you don't do what he says but he plays like shit and dies more than anyone else

>Don't know much about Starcraft,
Most of them are already in.
The ones that would fit and aren't already in the game are Swann, Mira, Stukov, Duran and Fenix (Or Talandar). I'm personally hoping for Duke or DuGalle.

Unless you count The Overmind/Zasz/Daggoth, but they are entirely inappropriate.

What's the button to show your equipped banner?

>banning valla

but for what purpose

You push the button that takes a camp, kills a building, or takes the objective.

>romania

disgusting

At least I'm not a gypsy, so it's not as bad as it could be.

i finished my placements and got put in plat 1, now im scared because i don't want to lose

are you happy with plat 1 pussy? get in there and grind your way up the ladder.

don't want to lose what?

>playing zarya against a team with li ming and jaina

Name a better feeling than maiming a Sylvanas to death with Greymane.

>tfw gold
>tfw i probably belong here
help

damn guys........

doesn't mean you'll always belong there

is it impossible to get the old lunar skins like lunar li ming now

There is none

just damn....

gooks right now

>Still no Banner of Pandaria

Predict which team will win hotsg/

seasonal items only available during that season, nignog

Play to improve, reflect upon mistakes, don't waste time arguing with your team about stupid shit, learn what's strong and why it's strong/make use of it, soak, don't fight while behind, don't overextend, don't let shit out of your control bother you.
and the most important of all git gud

Red team has the better teamcomp for long engagements and nobody's going to deal with the Li Ming taking pot shots 24/7.

Factions without banners are OBJECTIVELY AND CANONICALLY

in the book of Blizzard and they are doing damage control by not including them in game.

>dont talk and mby ppl forget lylz

>probius with no kills

>Don't waste time arguing with your team about stupid shit

This so fucking much, do people even realize that fucknuts won't listen to you despite you being in the right. And even if they know you're right they sure as hell ain't gonna admit it. It just pisses people off

>the player is ignoring you

ishygddt

Does Tyrande not count as a healer for their team makeup "equality"?

I don't even talk to them m8
the sheer amount of cancer makes me want to start games by muting the chat

Anyone have any tips for playing Tyrande in QM?

Just want to get her to 5 for the gold but it's agony. The game with 2 other supports and a tank has sapped any remaining hope I had.

Gonna ask the morning crew for thoughts.

Started playing a week ago because of that Overwatch crossover thing. Never (ever) played a MOBA in my life.

Any hot tips for a newbie that I wont find by reading strategies/guides and doing research? Things like soak exp if the enemy team is 10/20, maybe which heroes not to play until I'm more experienced? (I chose the Tanks/Bruisers bundle)

one of these teams won
the results may surprise you

I said it last night
But 2 Healers + DPS Kharazim is so good.

Not really. Just play quick match and don't give a fuck because it's just quick match.

If you want to be competitive, read guides and practice a lot.

is it just me or are tanky heroes inherently better in this game?

like varian just seems op as fuck as does leoric. same with butcher. is there any squishy hero that feels rewarding to play?

from dota btw, so im used to super bursty heroes like lina, lion and nyx

it counts as a zarya medivh abathur
if you play one of those you'll just play versus at least one from this list over and over
it sucks
