I played a tremendous amount of Bloodline Champions before Funcom got their jewhands dug in there so I'm used to the positioning.

I dunno if it's any better. I just never liked panning the camera with the mouse in any game.

where the FUCK is Maiev????

I want Malthael to bend me over and reap me.

...

how many inches is sonyas dick?

malthael reminds me of XUL.

It's actually just a 10" clitoris.

I want summer beach fun Li Li to rub sunscreen on swimsuit Chromie.

It's one inch longer than the dick of whomever she's fucking in the ass.

If based drawfag is feeling charitable, you might just get your wish!

>Tier lists all explicity state not to blindly follow them
>Blindly follow them anyway almost regardless of team comp or map
>Still win just on the sheer strength of the good heroes and obvious shittiness of the bottom tier heroes dying for free

muh team comp

malthael patch when???

also your gf is a roastie
you're defending used goods

dreadlord when?

>main assassin is Butcher
>maybe 1 in 5 QM teams knows how to coordinate to shut him down
>have A-ish winrate on a D-tier hero
Feels MEAT man.

Either not soon enough or too soon, depending on how much Blizz changes him from War3.

13th for US, 14th for EU

Dumb anime poster, keep your literal bottom of the barrel trash out of here, I'd rather take that cuckposter bragging about his """"""""""""""gf"""""""""""" than you.

Abathur buffs when

braxis holdout could be removed and nobody would give a single fuck

what a fucking piece of shit of a map

I don't think there is ever a bad time to pick someone like Greymane, Genji or Anub, they are just too good.

agreed

>hating Braxis when the Bay exists
kek

I've never seen a good Greymane. They might exist, but they're unicorns to me.

>hating based braxis
Just ban Sylv only.

On the other hand, it's impossible to play Warhead Junction if you aren't first pick in HL, because NO FUCKING ONE WILL DRAFT GLOBALS and everything is already taken/banned by the time I get to pick.
Ffffffuck that map.

>Hanamura, Braxis, Blackheart's, and Garden are all going to be in at once when the rotation ends
kill me

Why play hs over sv?

...

>Just ban Sylv

I'd say D.Va too. Self-destruct can pretty much just neutralize an entire wave.

>all maps in unranked modes
No neee to fear qm hero

And I forgot the pic.

It's cool, all maps you can draft properly for even if your team ain't with you. I mean, BHB is still a piece of shit and Hanamura STILL needs to get relooked at, but they're not that terrible in comparison to Warhead.

I didnt even insult him personally.

It was Braxxis and we couldnt even keep 1 point secure, naz top died constantly to Tyrael and so I said fuck it, go lightning breath, cant hit dva, tyrael and illidan anyway, we already lost 2 forts at that point.
And he was just sperging out why I wouldnt take the stun against these mobile targets.

Only the purest and fair maidens can witness the coming of a Greatmane.

what am i doing wrong on Cursed Hollow? its even my favorite map WTF!?

Why does this game run so horribly all the time? Legit I can run most games on medium-high but this I can't run on even medium without it breaking or crashing or slowing huge in a teamfight.

Especially compared to other MOBAs

>it's WJ
>nobody but me picks the character with perma-stealth and a long-range get-the-fuck-off-that-nuke ultimate
I'm not even that good, but in the land of the blind...

At least the good ones are in too.

Wrong thread, friend. You want /hsg/; this is /hotsg/.

>pure
>fair
>maiden
No wonder, then!

>genji goes in solo
>dies to 5 enemies
>complains that we didn't follow the assassin in

In my opinion you can pick anub, genji, falstad, or auriel into almost anything with anything anywhere and do great

blizz sucks

As long as said drawfag tries to improve by not drawing the same animoo similarly proportioned copy and paste pose onto different color palletes I'd be down. Not that I don't appreciate her work already.

Heavily CPU and internet connection reliant unlike other games in the genre

usually third worlders and poorfags have issues because they use toaster PCs with budget GPUs to make up for their shitty CPU power and peasant internet.

I love Chromie!

YOU FILTHY NOVA FIRSTPICKING DIPSHIT ARE THE REASON I CAN'T STAND THAT MAP
AND GOD FORBID I HIGHLIGHT TLV, THAT SUDDENLY TILTS EVERYONE HARDER THAN THE NOVA FIRSTPICK, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO SALVAGE YOUR SHITTER ASS?

Too bad Chromie only loves me!

>Wrong thread, friend. You want /hsg/; this is /hotsg/.
For a second I was going "wait who? kharazim over sylvanas?"

faggot

...

>Genji
Not in very poor waveclear comps.
>Auriel
>going with anything
Jesus please don't do that to him, you sadistic arse.

Is Chromie's "Yay!" voiceline the best voiceline in the game? Answer: Yes.

Does Chromie have the best taunt in the game? Answer: Yes.

Is Chromie cute? Answer: YES!!!!

oh look who's begging for (You)'s again
thanks for proving my point

Do you want a (You) ?

best and most pure and most cute girl

Weeb characters attract a special type of player. One in ten thousand will be the kind of badass you pray for. The rest are zit-faced permavirgins.

>implying I'm a shitter with Nova specifically on WJ specifically
I won't tilt at you, but if we're enemies save your TLVs for when I play Butcher, please.

Can I have one? I am really, really lazy and not in the mood to make a good edit of something

>pure

>Illidan on panties
in your dreams little brother

Take it. It's yours my friend.

...

Not me this time, son. I told you trying to talk to one specific person on an anonymous board was asking for confusion.

I'm hungry now, though, so this really will be the last you hear from me, even if you keep biting people's bait.

>Looks mid 30s in this one
>Looks mid 50s ingame and in artworks

I'm pretty sure I can disable my gpu output and run this game on integrated graphics. Blizz makes well optimized games. You must literally have a Black and Decker toaster master 1998 to have trouble running this.

...

>getting stimmed when you have 4 hp

That wasn't me a-user!
But i admit that my GF is cock hungry and I really enjoy licking other mens semen off her pussy.

Why do people give a shit about your player level.
The only thing that shit means is how autistically you leveled shitty heros since preseason.
>oooooh Im 1200 I know more about the game than you!
No, not really, it means you grinded the fuck out of QM and still dont understand map objectives.

Someone sum up Illidan's gameplay and lore in a single post
I really want to know why he's so angry

I gib a you because its nice to be noticed.

>Only thing I can think of when I see ten thousand with an enraged face is colbertposting ten thousand scoops

TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZ'DINGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i mean if they're like sub 100 you can tell that they're pretty new to the game

difference between 500 and 2500 is mostly just how autistic they are rather than how good they are though

Is the ELO system fucked in HotS? I jumped on the bandwagon because of the OW event, and my friends and I just played our placements for team Ranked. All games played together. I get placed an entire division above them. What gives?

sgt hammer is so fucking gay
the entire game revolves around her

do you have the heroes to counter her? congrats, free win
do you not have the heroes to counter her? congrats, free loss

>gameplay
Flippy ninja psh nothing personnel kid shit.
>lore
WAH THE GURL I LIEK MARRIED MY BROTHER AND WHEN I COMMITTED TREASON AND GOT PEOPLE KILLED TO IMPRESS HER I GOT PUT IN PRISON I AM FUELED BY THE BURNING RAGE OF TWO BLUE SUNS WHICH ARE MY BALLS

Would probably be ______Yrel

your friends are bad

Are you more new to the game?
That's why.

It's truly amazing how people still don't know how Hanamura works

Local night elf who did nothing wrong did everything wrong.

It's cause you bought the OW collectors edition and your friends didn't. Now buy more loot boxes the event Anniversary event ends soon.

you can say that about any character that trends toward the deep end for their character role

>no counter for Genji? free loss
>no counter for Anub? free loss

Alright /hots/ let's play a game

Think of your main/favorite hero to play. You got it? Are you sure that one's your favorite? Ok..

That hero now has all their talents unlocked. That means every single talent from Level 1 to Level 20 is active and can be used.
For heroics just imagine that you can use both.


Post how OP your main is now

>Hammer
>Can not only move in Seige Mode, but range increases, is stealthed, gains armor if stunned rooted
>5 mines that knock back
>Concussive blast with a wall
>Orbital BFG combined with Napalm Strike for crazy waveclear

Bretty gud

i want to stick my tongue in her butt

talk about autism

hammer is way worse because at least against genji and anub you feel like there are things you can do

against hammer it's a literal IF statement. if you have x heroes it's an instawin, nothing hammer can do because the hero has zero depth. if not you lose, nothing you can do because again, the hero has zero depth

they should look into reworking her

It probably tastes like lavender.

Varian

5k hp big ass dicking machine running around with a 4 second gap closer and 3 attacks per second that deal 400 magic damage every 2 attacks with an active that makes himself and his team immune to damage

>Abathur
Evolve. Conquer.

Oh, the new features sales suck.

What are some heroes you're glad you got to try before buying?

Pic very fucking related. I was almost ready to waste 10k on this guy before today.

why do I feel like you're saying this strictly as someone who loses against her and not as someone who wins with her

No, we all started playing at the same time. I've put some more hours into quickplay, but other than that, we've done it all together.

One of them has contributed more than I have to our games, and gotten double my MVP's. He's been playing mainly tanks though, don't know if it's biased against them somehow.

I keep seeing that Falstad is a top tier hero but I'm not sure how to play him. I go full on hammer build and booming it into people is cool, but it never seems to do a lot of damage even when you hit them on the throw, the boom, and the return. It feels like I hit them for about 1/4th of their health or so and then I AFK until the cooldown is over because he's so squishy. I can barely win 1v1s on other squishes even if I hit all my stuff. The mobility is nice though.

More like lilac and gooseberries.

...

Or shit

Probius

Actually not that strong. He has mainly two builds, disruptor build and turret build. They basically are two completely separate functions. He becomes a zoning god with gate and pylon ult but would obviously be way weaker than other people with two ults. Probius is also a character that is limited mainly by his cooldowns rather than his ults or resources.

So sadly, he wouldn't be nearly as broken as every other character in the game.

Was there any way to win this game on Infernal shrines with this comp?

Genji and Zeratul for me. The former was recommended to me and the latter was a favorite back in SC1. Turns out I'm flaming shit with both of them.

This was the only correct answer.

I think the Auto attack build is the one that everyone goes on Falstad.
