Where the fuck is the new hero? And Big Dick Tychus?!

Damn, Kael is shredded.

First for /hotsg/ is literally nothing but bronze quick match shitters that need to shut the fuck up.

>when Abbathur rears up to you

Where is our drawfag's tumblr I need to look at liming's titties

>Big Dick Tychus?!
Tuesday or wednesday
Where the fuck is the new hero?
Oh you mean junkrat

Patently false. Some of us are wood brawl shitters.

Abathur buffs when?

YOSH

When you git gud,Abathur is fine.

Abathur buffs when you press Q

>fucktard says he is good at chen
>loses us the game
>get matched with him AGAIN
>loses the game again
>has 40% overall win rate in HL

Why is this allowed? How can someone so completely shit be in diamond?

And why do I have the misfortune to get matched with him twice

So who's been hoarding their Loot Chests for the Event coming up? I even leveled up like 20 odd Heroes where now they sit with just a hair amount of exp left to level up for easy quick event boxes if this hoarding doesn't pan out, which it probably will, since they are random at opening.

The event is coming this week right?

I used them trying to get Malthael because I dont give a fuck about gay tychus and tracer.

Summer shit is special lootboxes exclusive
You saved those up for literally nothing

>He doesn't know

>4k gems
>he actually spends money on this game

Is Abathur the best hero in the game?

Not in terms of raw power but:

>Powerful, but requires skilled play and coordination from teammates, many judgement calls. Need to know how to adequately play every character in the game
>Most build diversity of every character
>Slug

...

Oh user you have no idea

Play him together with something that has a lot of CC (lol arthas) and take the CD reduction on AA.

Also discord strike hits fucking hilariously hard. You also have the option of sustained lightning poke. Telekinesis does kerrigan shit better than kerrigan.

Rite of Rak'shir and not dying can get you up to silly numbers of sadism (I've personally gotten as high as 200%).

Summer event has Summer lootboxes because it's a seasonal thing. Your current lootboxes are going to do nothing for you through the event. They're not entirely worthless though; you can still pull new heroes and skins from things.

best girl!

He really is hidden OP, only ever so often do you see his potential in pro games where the Aba clone + Assassin 2v4 the enemy team, but it does happen.

Thats fucking valeera.are you blind?

youtube.com/watch?v=KTwnwbG9YLE

Nah, Medivh is the gamebreaker when you get big dick teams involved.

You don't know that, the Summer Chest Event "Skin" that was data mined could be literally a Skin for Chests, we do know that boxes are random on opening.

The way I look at it, either the summer stuff still has a chance to drop out of the normal boxes, in which case saving them was justified, or it doesn't, in which case I just get my shards from all the dupes I'm bound to get now as opposed to over the last few weeks, and then I can just spend those shards on the summer stuff that I really want.

Another plus on hoarding for an event is that your bound to get some Stimpacks from all your Chests, and if you plan on playing during the event you might as well have those Stimpacks start when the event starts and not have them drain out a week prior.

around nazeebo never relax

He is one of those heroes who is really good when the map and all heroes are chosen for him. He is literal shit in QM since he can't do much without getting lucky with the map and heroes in his team

Where is the Overwatch race?

youtube.com/watch?v=T0G8znfy_hs

In the bathtub

Arent goblins the niggers of wow?

Please throw a fully charged laptop in there with them

No I mean Stukov

...

Just chilling with a few friends.

No those are orcs, goblins are the joos

HEAVILY suggests summer chests, but okay
I guess since we are playing internet philosophy you are technically right and I can't know
Or can I?

>pick stitches
>go slam build
>miss every hook
>actually prevent kills by shitty helping hands
>still win

based hero
nerfs when

>Do Brawl
>All Malphael

Jesus Christ, a game with absolutely no burst at all just never ends. We're at 31 minutes, and level 26 with no end in sight.

How do I fucking land this Alarak combo? Shit is incredibly wonky.

if only you werent a pleb and played my boy stitches in his truly OP phase

scoot them in a direction, zap them where they will be. his combo is way easier than kerrigans

We should recruit these... mercenaries
HAHA!

Never, he's fine as is. You cant really effectively nerf him without changing his kit because even if you nerf his ass then a good player will still hook your butt and gank you.

why are elves so lewd

>teammate picks chromie
>win
really makes think me

>goblins whole thing is loving money and richers
>durr is it da niggers???

God I want to have sex with Valeera

>tfw its penis inspection day and nurse valeera is on duty

>Both teams hit level 30
>Managed to gain two levels from a fucking Brawl

>tranny face

>doesn't reward you double for quest progress

>implying western devs can do anything other than ugly tranny faces

>40 min

How?

Tyrande is worst girl

Goblins are the jews. Orcs are what you're thinking of.

>Come from a distant land
>Typically portrayed as brutish and savage
>dindu nuffin

brawls give XP now? sweet
about fucking time too

>kill enemy
>"I could have done better"
Okay you know what? Fuck you Illidan

shoo panda fag, no one likes you

what if, the summer loot is in the regular boxes, but it's not guaranteed? opposed to 1 guaranteed in summer box. not saying it will happen since
>shoo shoo blizzjew
but still

So shouldn't the next hero be getting revealed sometime soon?

This week if schedule is unaltered.

Probably thursday or friday.

Never hopefully

The next hero is the uninstall wizard.

I wonder where that guy went who leaked Math back in 2016 with his skills and everything.

>guy

Axotol was killed by Blizzard for leaking a huge list of heroes back in like March of 2016.

>Perfect feet:
Cassia
Li-Ming
Valeera
Johanna
Auriel
Tyrande

>Good feet:
Jaina
Kerrigan
Nova
Valla
Li Li
Sylvanas

>Okay feet:
Tracer
D.Va
Sonya
Morales
Hammer

Gross feet:
Zarya
the rest of the non-human scum

...

kill yourself thanks

Malthael (Specialist - Melee)
>Reaper of Souls (D): Gain 1 Soul from every minion death, 10 from every hero takedown up to a maximum of 100. Activate to spend 50 Souls and make your next basic attack against a hero disable healing effects on hit for 2 seconds. Can hold 2 charges.
>Shadow Presence (Q): Spend 5 Souls to teleport to a chosen target and execute 2 basic attacks instantly. Takedowns reduce cooldown by 1.5 seconds (15 second cooldown)
>Drain Soul (W): Create a damaging area of effect around Malthael that deals 150% damage to non-heroic targets. Lasts 4 seconds and heals 1.5% of Malthael's maximum HP for every target hit, up to a maximum of 15% (20 second cooldown)
>Death Shroud (E): Summon a dark cloud that travels in a straight line, dealing 300 damage over the course of 4 seconds and slowing enemy movement speed by 40%. Can hold 2 charges. (7 second cooldown)
>Soul Nova (R1): Channel for 1.5 seconds to release a devastating area of effect spell that deals 700 damage and applies a 70% slow effect that decreases over the course of 3 seconds. (90 second cooldown)
>Grand Summoner (R2): Spend 25 Souls to summon a Necromancer to fight at your side. The Necromancer has 800 HP, deals 160 damage per hit and lasts 20 seconds. Necromancers always attack Malthael's current basic attack target. Passively transforms Malthael's basic attacks into ranged attacks but decreases basic attack damage by 20%. (45 second cooldown)

Wow, interesting how some of his kit has changed

The next hero will be Rock 'n' Roll Racer

>sylv
>good
u mean rot

>Li Li

>Li Li, Sonya and Tracer not in gross
>Slyvanas not in perfect

Proper necromancer when?

Why would rotten feet be in perfect?

CHOOSE YOUR THICCNESS, LEFT RIGHT OR MIDDLE YOU MASSIVE FAGGOTS.

>Gain 1 Soul from every minion death, 10 from every hero takedown up to a maximum of 100. Activate to spend 50 Souls
holy shit that trait is useless

Middle two.

i'll take that cute crusader in the background.

>followed by 35 minute infernal shrines
Play 8 games the quest said

Abathur can't really force the game to end

always elf

Sex with valeera

>implying this isn't a botter
10 vs AI games, 11680 QM games. He was also silenced

He wasn't bad though

>sameface
>giantass anime eyes on chromie

nah

>Being this gay

Also, 8k QM games in preseason, was master in HL until last season where he dropped to diamond and has not played this season

>enemy abathur takes healing shield talent
>I don't
>after a 35 minute game I have 20k healing done
>he has 27k healing done
Great talent

Are you implying they don't all have generic anime eyes drawn by a western "artist"?

Friendly reminder

Woudl you never be able to drink Valeera's vaginal fluids or licking her butthole.

...

Slyvanas takes care of her body, you don't get a toned sexy midriff like that otherwise
