First for best mommyfu.

...

First for the power of vodka.

Beautiful user, I'm glad you whipped that up so fast.

I hope we live to see this day this gary stu gets BTFO like his idiotic father

Where is this from?

Less than fifteen minutes ago when I posted both images in the previous thread, and user smashed them together?

>people still think that the stealth changes are a nerf at any skill level higher than bronze
LMAO'ing @ you guys rn
we can finally have good heroes with stealth

>that one insecure silvershit

DAILY REMINDER THAT 27.07.2017 WILL BE FOREVER REMEMBERED AS A DARK DAY IN ORCISH HISTORY.

Blizzard really fucked up with Garrosh's representation in Heroes of the Storm. His abilities and role do not fit his character fantasy in any way. His kit should have been for another character.

Yes, he is fun to play. But he should have been a bruiser, like Artanis, but with burst and less focus on defense and with an ability to force 1v1.

>what Blizzard devs did
Hey guys we plan to release Garrosh somewhere in summer 2017
Fast forward summer 2017
Alright guys just attach some existing kit to Garrosh and release him. And dont forget to make a legendary skin + bike with a bunch of tints

I meant the pic on the left, who is it even?

Filenames are a thing that exists, maybe you should read them.

You post this in every thread. Go away Garroshfag

The nerf makes sense in the context they explained it but I wish they just made it that you can't see invisible characters at all instead of making them easier to see. With the nerf what is invisibility now, it may as well read "Can not be targeted by attacks for X seconds. Canceled by taking damage".

I think they should become completely invisible while standing still so that it still has some purpose

scarlet crusade when

>be tassadar
>join lucio at mid before the match begins
>"I do this for Aiur, not for a lesser terran such as you."

jesus christ how the fuck did this get past QA

that is what will happen with the new changes to stealth

but then the bronzies would screech and whine incessantly

What's the problem? Lucio's human which equals terran for that uneducated protoss.

But Johanna is already in the game

Thats exactly what it does now. You go 100% invisible now after you are still for 1.5 seconds.

>fixing broken and outdated game mechanics is pandering
huh?

>Cassia - literally SJW
lolwot how?

Everything there is true. Blizzard are talentless fucking hacks and someone should have been fired over that.

Why can't hats sit on top of hair like that for pcs

So many good clothy mogs ruined because hats eat your hair

Ms. Ham's got meat on her bones and she's perfectly fine that way, ya lightweight.

>Zagara - nice pleasant mother but really disgusting alien freak
I lol every time, every fucking time.

I'm going to capture MOMMY and make dragon babies with her!

Fuck off, Donkey!

I'm going to capture you too!

I'm going to have rough consensual anal sex with Johanna!

I'm going to drink milk straight from Alexstrasza's udders!

Now do it all again, but be funny and original.

So, did I miss the boat to be OP Mage Zul’jin?

No, unless you consider 10 extra seconds on what was a 30 second CD for a damage shitting ability that significant.

No, guillotine was already sleeper op even before the rework, the cooldown needed to be adjusted. He's a very solid workhorse ranged auto-attacker that you can specialize to either be very strong with poke, a good 'mage' with a strong auto-attack, or just an overall solid auto-attacker.

New hero here I come

Is the current brawl a repeat? I find it really fun, one of the few I kept playing after the loot chest.

I never play Stitches but I'm a god with a hook, wish I had a reason to draft him.

>tfw that will never happen
Nope, still excellent. Don't listen to the people who say the AA build is any good though.

>guillotine was already sleeper op even before the rework
In that the consensus about taking taz'dingo vs it was starting to shift, people were realizing that you tended to overextend to use taz'dingo and it got you killed, whereas guillotine just put out a big fucking burst of damage from long range.

They buffed it even further (level 20 upgrade restores health if you get a kill, forward moving portion hits for 75% of initial instead of 50%).

It's sort of like how pro perception of raynor ults was starting to shift too. People *knew* hyperion was good for zoning and siege, but banshee's were starting to become really valued for their ability to just fucking annihilate a tracer, lunara or valla in a "trade". At level 10 each banshee does 71 damage per second, which is nearly a 65% improvement to raynors damage (not factoring marksman, crit or attack speed boosts) for 22 seconds. The level 20 upgrade to them makes them do 98% of raynors baseline dps, which is fucking nutso for their lengthy duration.

>Win 3 games
I hate that quest. Everytime I get it I start getting tons of games with shitters and afkers

This is the Queen of Dragons, say something nice to her!

I got a game with a 900 mmr bronzie earlier. Bronze 5 *starts* at about 1200 mmr.

They were playing kerrigan. They missed their fucking combo on siege giants.

...

>spend the night with alexstrasza
>wake up in the morning
>she makes you an omelette

What does Alexstrasza's nipples taste like?

At least he knew the combo.
Whenever I play with my bronze friend most kerrigans don't even know the combo

>it's bloody
>you are eating your children

Actually, now that I think of it, they always did the pull before the impale, so no, they didn't know the combo.

it took so long to find a match that i got ai teammates
wow

>rooster
>laying eggs

SAUCE NOW

When?

it's a female rooster

Mint

>use guillotine as zuljin
>never hit anything

>2017
>being a bigot

I'd be surprised if he doesn't come mid-late next year or early-mid the year after. They're kinda running out of iconic characters to make gameplay relevant heroes of, assuming the Overwatch domination will die down.

They have a list of 180 potential heroes that they'd like to do, they've also said "More blizzard classics are a matter of when, not if".

>Alexstrasza is THICC

>use guillotine as Zul'Jin
>Kill an 80% HP Chromie from a mile away

>They're kinda running out of iconic characters to make gameplay relevant heroes of
Literally who cares about this shit. People just want to play heroes they like. If Maiev has very similar abilities to Zertaul so fucking what! The idea that every heroes gameplay has to be unique is a false fucking premise.

y-you have nice clean teethe...

t. mary sue rottencrotch fanboi

this is you in real life:

just fucking search for her on r34 sites you lazy fuck

...

its true that only trannies play this game

>those demonic horns
Is it safe to say that this is a bad dragon?

...

That's why you have skins
>ban zera
>they take maiev

>don't look at scoreboard until game ends
>go to stat screen
>see this
Jesus Christ

what is so surprising?

gold medivh killing everybody probably

He knows how to put lowerlings on their place

Hire this man Blizzard

Fucking ascended SSJ Medivh, more damage than Thrall, full stacks Nazeebo and Zul'jin.

100% of the Medivhs I've played with at this level put out ETC's damage.

Maiev isn't a skin of Zeratul and can just be her own hero.
>bans
Should be removed entirely from the game anyway, but another fix is kits could exist separate from heroes, and even allow for Blizzard to give certain Heroes secondary kits, like giving Varian's kit to other Warriors, etc.

>bans should be removed
not happening lmao
in fact they're probably adding more soon

The sad thing is that the blonde actually has some of the smallest tits in Hollywood, she's not even filling out that bra, except maybe with paper. They're bullying her in and out of the show. How mean.

yeah but she's cuter than the brunette at least

I agree 100%, very qt for a 32 y/o

I know no warchief but the TRUE warchief, whose name is Sylvanas Windrunner!

>Should be removed entirely from the game anyway
Spoken like a true quick match shitter
>"WAAAAHHHHH THEY BANNED THE ONE HERO I PLAY"

>genji first pick on tomb of the spider queen
>in platinum
>decides to solo lane top for 5 minutes since Genji is an amazing sololaner with incredible waveclear
>rest of the team tries to do a 3 men rotate since Genji wont adapt
>he eventually starts calling other players bronze players
>says enemy team is pro
>i say "u2"
>"hehe muted"
god damn genji mains.

>32 y/o
wow she looked in her 20's. albeit prob a lot of show makeup but still looks good.

pretty sure genji can hold his own in a lane buddy

When is /our/ MILF coming out in the PTR?

Also, she's coming to the live servers next tuesday right?

yup about the second question, dunno about first one probably tomorrow or wednesday

sure, but a platinum player should know how to play a map...
maybe i put too much faith into my teammates.

Sylvanas is like the opposite of the Starks, funnily enough.

There is nothing wrong with a person solo soaking a lane pre-10, Genji or not. You think he's going to do anything but shitall early game with his puny shurikens?

At least he's soaking exp in lane while the rest of you ditch your lanes and give the enemy an exp advantage. If this was post-10, maybe you have a point but before? Please.

>pick Diablo as a solo tank
>don't soak lanes early game because muh ganks
>bitch about others

You know, I wasn't really into mommyfaggotry, but I think Alex is quickly changing my mind

Sometime today PTR opens
Next Tuesday should be release.

It was part of the Sun’s out, Gun’s out event.

it was the top lane of tomb of the spiderqueen.
