Heroes of the Storm General - /hotsg/

>12 games with KT
>2 wins - 10 loses
so how do you play this hero when people actually know how to dodge chains and spikes?
rework when

>4 charges of long rage q
>melee is kinda short with a valla/ming hp pool
>you have to plant your skills in almost melee range
>at 10 you have to pick between a self root or no damage if they move a little

I don't know why he is banned in blizzcon is not like anyone would pick him lmao.

Garrosh also had a 40% winrate on release.

Wrong.

>playing the wrong kt

>when the worst player on the team starts talking shit to you and you bully him so hard while still carry the game that you literally make them go offline crying
only reason to play this shit

>dodge chains and spike
You are not good enough to play him. When you ability is literally called a "skillshot" they "dodge", that's called "missing" aka you suck dick and git gud.

>titan killer + triple strike vs avatar muradin

>people keep dodging my skillshots!
back to raynor for you

in the fair match up you will only land half the skill shots

one half miss because opponent is actually good and can dodge with billion mobility moves

>Play 8 games with friends to get all my quests done
>Burned out
>Oh hey a lootbox
>Stimpack

T-Thanks Blizzard.

>in the fair match up you will only land half the skill shots
And that's why you should go back to Raynor kiddo.

LITERALLY WHY AM I ALWAYS MATCHED UP WITH NOVA BUT NEVER AGAINST HER IN QM, SHE IS LITERALLY 4V5 THE HERO

>get 3-4 kills post level 20
>entire allied team is up
>we have sustain
>the enemy core is open
>nobody wants to end
placements are stressful

>in the fair match up you will only land half the skill shots
what the

at this point im just queing into a quick match and a clicking down lane as garrosh until the game is, theis hero is terrible, its not even fun.

>throwing niggas over your wall to their death isn't fun
like cmon even if you losing can throw the shitter on your team to his death a few more times

im just trying to level him to 5 for easy lootboxes.

yeah i did it and got a 1v2 double kill last game, but he does nothing after the laning stage excpet mildly inconvience people in team fights and melts like a fucking chromie.

>in the fair match up you will only land half the skill shots
What is this bronzeboy logic wtf
If you miss it's 100% your fault always with no exception. If you think you'll miss don't shoot.

>2 lootboxes in a row with a legendary in it
>dreadlord jaina and rainbow unicorn

Sh... should I be mad?

>dl jaina
no

>meme horse
yes

>jaina
nice

>$20 meme pony
I mean it's 400 doritos if you get it again
which you probably will

Garrosh is #1 or #2 tank in the game, the problem is you're playing quickmatch so you don't have good healers to keep you alive

>when you're down 15 kills at 10 minutes but somehow maintain soak, have an infinitely better 5v5 and deathball to victory
:3c

I think that the Jaina skin is great. Horse? Shards to look forward to, maybe.

>want a stimpack
>never get it
>about to take a break from HOTS
>get a stimpack
STOP

The problem is when it's 15 minutes into the game and there's only keeps left and you're team is too dumb to do anything about the people you massively displace.

>open chest
>it contains a stim
>don't accept chest
>log out
>lock back in
>chest is closed
>and contains the stim

where are the hot pictures of tyrande

...

ALLERIA WHEN!?

heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/sonya#gOxG

Something like this but there's a lot of different things you can go, you might want to take Block some games and War Paint others e.g. Leap is also really good in certain situations.

moar

>another fucking female elf with a bow
wow I can't believe she hasn't been added already

We need an actual bow elf assassin and she can emulate Marksmanship.

>tyrande exists
I mean it could happen

she shouldn't've been support

>finish tutorial
>here have a free hero
>muradin is the tank
>jaina is the assassin
>tyrande is the support
they sorta sending mixed messages here

Please tell me how the fuck someone mains Kharazim, but can't self-cast palm to save your life?

Why didn't they make Uther the free support?

man getting heroes i know ill never play again like garrosh, alarak, and morales to level 5 in qm is so fucking tiring.

>Multiclass tag
>Blizzard classic tag

>play Quickmeme to clear quests
>first game has Chogall + Morales
>"Ok guys don't try to focus down Cho'gall first, he'll just live forever. Cut his team out from under him then focus him last."
>4x "LOL FUCK YOU FAGGOT, REPORTED FOR ABUSIVE CHAT."
>They do it anyway, we win
>Whatever, moving on.
>Play another quickmeme game
>Worst Chromie I've ever seen
>"Try to lead them a bit more, Chromie. Aim where you think they're going to be, not where they are."
>4x "FUCK YOU STOP TALKING REPORTED"
>Game ends
>You have been silenced for 8 Days

I guess the big takeaway here is don't bother talking in quickmeme.

800 game nova player, so I obviously banned it and now he's feeding lmao. I feel bad for the other 3 players on his team but this is funny to me.

vs. AI is much less stressful and faster.

VS AI is zero challenge even on max settings though. You can manipulate the enemy AI so easily that it takes all the fun out of it.

remember when vikings and abathur were high skill cap heroes but then nerfed to the ground because only people that mastered them started winning and showing inflated percentages for their wins?

Shit game.

I just bought Stukov, oops

>stop playing hots a year ago
>stop in to check patch notes to see if they've buffed abathur yet
>he inexplicably only keeps getting nerfed

Junkrat feels fairly strong

Yeah, he's a good lad, takes a lot of getting used to though, at least for me.

only medivh has a lower winrate in comp lol.

Why does blizzard have this hardon for baiting retards into splitting up with worthless objectives like haunted mines?

seems difficult to balance objectives
like, make them worthwhile without being too snowbally

new russia map obj seems weak af early

his q hitbox doesn't feel all that generous
wonder how they plan on buffing him

glad they didn't rush to give him the zarya treatment

BECUZ MUH TEAM GAMES MUH TEAM OBJECTIVES

>Mines
>worthless

You're why you lose Haunted Mines so much.

A worthless objective would be Braxis boss that can't even solo gate + towers.

A 60+ skull golem can end a game on it's own.

protected btw

Whether I win or lose haunted mines it's because someone splits up and dies at ~20 mins.

It's nearly unavoidable and having the entirety of the match be entirely worthless due to one mistake is why I quit dota. These maps make me want to afk because the result is a foregone conclusion to some random event

I love heroes that go hard in the paint but this game really seems to favor faggot characters like chromie and genji that can just do constant damage while avoiding everyone else

Why is Azmodans Battleborn talent good?

>play Cute Frog of Most Healing Done
>win games
You should have told me it was this easy.

im an astonishing 1-17 as alarak in qm today trying to level him to 5.

Once you get a hang of his w you can secure a lot of kills fairly easily and always have an escape in lane.
He's amazing for contesting objectives like temples, towers and shrine since he can just lob bombs while safely pushing the lane.

Because it makes your splitpush a lot stronger and it's ok in teamfights too.

>win two games
>next game gives me a Nova who keeps walking into the enemy team alone looking for siccccc kills

I would like to see two new talents for D.va, maybe they replace other talents.

Level 1: Regen globe talent, 1hp / globe, 25 globes to complete. Reward for completion: Regen value doubled while in meka, or 30% increased healing received.

Level 7: After W ends you get a shield equal to a portion of the damage mitigated during it.

She's a strong character and quite fun, but she needs someone fucking feeding her sustain all the goddamn time which limits her utility.

>self cast is alt
>auto broadcast is also alt
REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

How are you doing today user; any good matches?

Wow!

>serpent build
>no cleanse

unless you have a chromie that thinks she's a melee

noiiiiice

who is best girl?

Tyrande

Sonya!

>regen globe
No
>she needs sustain
Late game she has like 6 health bars that's enough

D.Va

consider sudoku

>get my first ever hero I don't own out of boxes
>it's Gazlowe
Redpill me on Gazlowe

drop turrets

throw bombs to zone or combo cc

use the laser sometimes maybe to kill people from range

go gravbomb for wombo combo or go robo goblin for RIP AND TEAR and more survivability/pushing power (can be activated to give movespeed and armor)

throw turrets all the time forever

turrets are great

turrets are fun

He's the worst hero in the game in terms of usability
He zones an area and can push lanes and kill merc camps

>its a first pick valeera episode

Why does Sylvannas get to simultaneously be the best sieger in the game, do insane hero damage, have great mobility, AND have 2 powerful crowd control ultimates

>best sieger

who is next hero

asking for a friend

lol

IM GETTING PLAT PLAYERS NOW IN MY
MASTER MATCHES HAHAHAHAHAHA

THANKS BLIZZARD IT KEEPS ON GETTING BETTER WITH EVERY MATCH

she's only really good at sieging if she can shepherd a large minion wave or her team, which, it's not difficult to do in a vacuum but many heroes with excellent waveclear can throw a massive wrench in her works, especially fuck-this-wave-from-across-the-map-modan.

her hero damage is fairly good but it also comes in bursts, if she goes up against a squishy assassin she can make them regret getting close, but against a warrior she can get manhandled pretty readily.

her mobility certainly isn't bad for a specialist but you can get fucked out of it if you lob the ghosts and get stunned or otherwise CC'd before you can activate them.

mind control has excellent pick potential but it involves rooting yourself (and is largely only useful on runners or out of position squishies), which can be a massive detriment, and silencing arrow involves people stacking up for it to get the most bang for your buck. if the enemy team has a cleanse or highly mobile heroes that can react to that big, shrieking skillshot coming their way, it's a bit harder to get your value.

>playing on the weekends

is there an easier way to grind heroes i dont want ot play than just intentionally feed in qm?

try to win faggot, feeding will lead you to a loss and less exp, then you get reported and are out of hl
