She is Chromie. Say something nice to her!

Well that was stupid.

WHEN??????????????????

us.battle.net/heroes/en/heroes/malthael/

As you can see his armor trait was nerfed and the reaper mark damage.

>last rites buffed to 50% of missing HP
Can blizzard do anything right?

user is 50% on live right now.

t. Malthael Main

Oh thought it was 30% mb sry sry

This one is 6 seconds older

you're not very good at math, are you?

Thread war incoming?

Is it worth buying heroes with gems or is it better to spend with gold?

Depend on which you have more of. Time or money.

That's how much health they pretty much need remaining to kill them.

When Stukov release?

Probably tomorrow morning.

In 5 minutes

Tommorow, between 12-2 EST

I stopped playing this game but then I heard Stukov was being released and that made me Kerrigan.

how does ranked work?
seems rock paper siccors from what you guys talk , and "dont pick your favorite character"

Reminder that EU gets fucked on hero releases and we won't see him until Wednesday.

Not necessarily wrong, you're just have to be moving pretty fast relative to earth for that to happen.

Number on the left is the fraction of the speed of light you'd have to be traveling

That's how fast my jizz moves when I fap to Tyrande

>D.va takes the slower self destruct even though we have mosh pit
>flames the rest of the team for being bad
>is level 1000+

simply fucking epic

She's just the right size for my dick

...

>tfw no dutch qts like you

or should i just try since i'll be put with noobs and it wont matter?
probius was fun
>300k damage in a match i was almost completely ignored
i only play QM so far
nevermind
>get put vs hammer
>can't do shit

>abathur pick on objective focused map
I wish I could murder these people

Is Rehgar a solo healer? Does he need to only be picked on heavy pounce and murder comps?

Seems like he struggles to intervene except for Ancestral healing, but works well as part of a rape squad.

That is literally where he's best though

I'll never understand how people don't like Grubby. Both his HotS and War3 vids are extremely entertaining, he's goofy but not stupidly so, makes fun of himself, interacts with his chat and has a qt doggo.

What's not to like?

>stun someone for 15 seconds straight as diablo
>team doesn't do shit and they walk away scot free
what more could you POSSIBLY need?

>play an almost 50 minute long game because we have 2 afk bots

I dont know why they don't just use the same AFK detection in overwatch, where they literally kick you if you haven't contributed to a kill in 10 minutes.

Take the HoT on Chain Heal always. Other talents you tailor to your team comp. Most versatile is the fat mobile earthbinds. Heavy poke comps you can take the LS gives absorb talent. Always get Dog regeneration and Dog lunge damage talents.

speaks like a retard
mumbles
rude
average af
greedy af
Makes you think

diablo is cute! CUTE!!!

>EU Masters/Grandmasters
>average af
>Coming from a probably Gold 3 NA

Don't listen 100% to There is no talent you always take.

>no user don't take the objectively best talents in their tiers

can you leave an A.I. teammates game without penalty ?

yes, though I think it counts as a lose

...

>There is no talent you always take.
ummm?
>probius
>zeratul
>malthael
>muradin
just the ones i could think of off the top of my head, I'll paypal you 100 USD if you can even tell me what their other heroics do.

For Rehgar.

Rehgar lacks mana efficiency. The Hot on Chain Heal increases his efficiency dramatically. No other talent on that tier even comes close.

The dog regeneration talent drastically boosts his sustainability if you actually use it (not attacking or casting? Sit dogform). Nothing else on this tier is even comparable.

The damage bonus on dog lunge talent gives Rehgar extra poke as well as being impressive team fight damage if you're repeatedly using it during engagements (you should). You can actually poke guys like Dehaka or Stitches to death or drive them off with smart use of Lunge + Earth bind + Lightning Shield if you ever find yourself facing them solo.

As I said before the other talents are tailored to your team comp but the EB talents are the most versatile.

>he always takes the same shit on probius

lol you're bad

>Play Uther
>Win
Why is he so perfect bros

So why is everyone hating on Samuro? He's one of the games best junglers and can secure camps fast and come in Lanes and help those who need it

I have lost literally every game there is an Azmodan on my team

Because the instant you face anyone with the ability to see the Shimmer he becomes a wasted pick.

Nevermind if you face anyone that comes with Truesight.

Because it's HotS, where nobody can micro anything and unless you take illusion master you're pretty much useless. The same reason why people take Archon, because its just too hard for them.

Lighting Shield giving a Shield will sometimes be better than the HoT. Healing Totem and the 90% Slow Totem are also good depending on teams so they would be better than the wolf talents in some cases.

Don't forget most heroes with AoE, especially Arthas.

You don't WW to engage you use it to rub away and stay alive, I'll engage with WW only when the team fight is happening and people are to focused on each other
But I do take illusion master and it's great, though HoTs has the shittiest macro this side of Afghanistan

What counters mages? Feels like any character I take that tries to dive them just gets shit on and infinitely stunned

Do pubs ever fucking use medivh portals or know how they fucking work? I'm 0-8 in placements as medivh and the amout of people that have actually fucking clicked the goddamn portal can be counted ONE hand

I like how you said you should literally always take the Chain Heal HoT but then also said to take Earth Shield.

Anub

Genji, Raynor, Anub, Greymane, the list goes on...

Butcher with Lamb, watch them panic as you chop them into meat.

like seriously, I take the manual placement portal talent for my team to get maximum usage out of it and the retards don't even use it when chasing/fleeing

>Using Mediev for your placements
>Using Mediev in solo HL
>Thinking this was ever a great way to do your placements
Welcome to bronze, hope you like your stay cause you'll never leave

>Junglers

Back to LeL

>Mediev

What's that, Slav Medivh?

What ever, point still stands as to why he ever thought that would be a good idea

what the fuck happened to the other thread?

It was only at like 400 replies then i left for an hour and its gone

did we really get 350 replies in an hour?

best girl

Some mental patient flooded the entire board with Pokeporn threads.

lmao nice, got a screencap?

fucking russians get out of my EU

I'm actually NA I just can't spell for shit, but enjoy your Russians, least they're not monkeys with internet

2 fucking HL games were enough to make me quit today...

I'm getting sick of this game hotsg, I think I'll just quit HL entirely and only play with friends.

But the problem is I need to play some competitive shit to make my gaming time fun, and Overwatch feels as much of a lottery as HL does.. Fucking Blizzard games

>pirate greymane spray
>might go the way of lifeguard johanna
>even if it does get in it will have a retarded cattle nose ring in shark form
This is like the valla shotgun and protected, they make something really good and then they shit all over it for no reason at all.

>win a few matches
>was so annoying i didn't enjoy it
this feels like winning against spammers on fighting games and its the main reason i dont play it that genre anymore

I love Grubby, I give him my Prime free sub every month because I've got nothing better to do with that crap

>might go the way of lifeguard johanna
wait are we getting lifeguard jojo skin?

When should I take leaping strikes vs the vine whip on Lunara?

Please photoshop the queen of spades instead of Illidan there. It fits her better.

goood post

Streetshark skin when?

No we aren't, that's the point.

god FUCKING dammit

>I give him my Prime free sub every month

It isn't free after the first month my man

it literally is

Read the fine print nigga

>"you will be automatically upgraded to a paid membership plan at the end of the trial period"

Maiev's and medivh's son

i feel you bro, but trust me the problem isn't blizzard games, it's the people in any competetitive game. If everyone wasn't a complete asshole, losing wouldn't be such a pain

oh shit, I may be actually retarded

>grubbysub finally realizes he's a retard
Self fulfilling prophecy

you are the reason why jews keep getting away with their jewery

You get a free sub every 30 days. He's an idiot.

Amazon Prime is not free but the subscription still is as long as you're a member... I already had Prime before they did the Twitch shit

should I get malthael, genji, tracer, dva, or should I wait for stukes?

You are if you believe him... Prime membership is not free but you get a free sub every month with it

why do people who can't play Kael/Liming/Valla/Alarak... insist on picking them and going for the quest/high risk build that they miserably fail at 99% of the time in HL ?

How many hours left until next rotation begins? (Already Tuesday here).

>malthael
wait for the wednesday patch he is getting nerfed.

>genji
same as above, nothing confirmed but could happen

>tracer and dva
literally shit heroes

>tfw can't bring myself to spend $ on hots

Like, not even WoW gold. Loot crates, man. Every purchase just feels so...inefficient.

Because they're fun. Spamming braindead split-pushers may be the easiest/quickest way to Platinum or Diamond but people will always go with the playmakers.
