Okay, that's pretty good.

pile of garbage

>still a virgin

Only because Arthas was a beta cuck doesn't mean she's still a virgin,

Will this infantile garbage ever end?

someone please tell me who this slag is with the mommy tits. my penis requires it

Old God when?

When Blizzard is done milking Overmeme

What is Thrall even doing right now in WoW?

When is this delicious dragon coming to the live servers? Tomorrow or tuesday?

I've seen some shit about coming tomorrow but other niggers say that it'll be tuesday since Halloween event is gone by that time.

Can we at least get some of the ones with interesting kits and not Hanzo.

Nothing, his hammer doesn't like him anymore because he cheated in a mak'gora.

Tuesday

...

Like who? They are all pretty boring or something that's already in the game.

Orisa, Symmetra, Zenyatta, Sombra. Hell Bastion could be cool with his trait being turning from Mobile to Stationary.

>muh quickmatch experience

>BRRRAAAAP
>prrrrfffrrrt

...

Orisa sounds pretty boring
Symmetra is just an indian probius
Zenyatta is just robo Stukov with an AoE heal like Lili's
Sombra is just Zerathul with an uzi
and Bastion is just a meme

you need to be above 18 to browse this site

when you're my age you don't really give a shit what the kids do, you ignore 'em anyway. speaking of...

How is Sombra anything like Zeratul besides stealth. Her blink has to be pre planned, and she'd be more about influencing the map than ganking, which is why I think she would be intresesting.

Orisa would make a solid tank, with mini disruptions, putting up a wall to protect your back line and coming with a self cleanse.

Saying Symmetra is like Probius is like saying Probius is Gazlowe because of Turrets.

Zenyatta is nothing like Stukov as his healing doesn't pass from person to person, and doesn't silence people which is what Stukov does, and LiLi is fucking trash compared to Zenyatta's ult.

Bastion is a meme, but at least his mechanics would be more interesting than fucking Hanzo.

Zenyatta is intended to be a ranged damage dealer that amps damage on enemies. He'd play nothing like stukov.

Although Transcendance is basically Tranquility already. Not sure how they'd avoid that unless they made it function completely different in Hots than it does in Overwatch

>brazil monkeys spamming the chat with their nonsensical hooting

Fuck f2p games man for real

Sombra will never happens because she has Malf's exact ult and the Sombra waifufags want her to interact with shit like buildings. It will never happen.

>NA

Why couldn't she interact with buildings? Sylvanas does it already.

You answered your question for me thx

Yeah that's why they can't have Hanzo, because Sylvanas already has a bow. Right?

Hey Hanzo can also jump over terrain with his trait. We don't have that.

...

>SA

...

>she has Malf's exact ult

Easy, change the ult to work as a channeled ability and silences a single target until the target exits the area of effect, at 20 it affects all heroes. Also with the change to towers another hero that interacts with enemy buildings could be fun, maybe instead of disabling it it makes it attack friendly targets.

How do you counter Raynor as Azmo on Towers of Doom?

>brazillian servers so shit they come to NA to mongrel up other games
how about instead of getting more shitterwatch heroes we get characters from other blizzard games? Like Imperius or Baal from diablo? Fenix from SC? Literally any of the old school blizz games to TLV doesn't need to be the only "Blizzard" hero?

stutterstep

>stutter stepping someone with more range than you
wut

Interacting with buildings short of making them not work or doing shit like Rag's trait will never be added because there's no counterplay for interacting with buildings in any other way that wouldn't be absolute cancer to deal with.

Why do you autists want summoners and building heroes, fuck

its obvious that you're full of shit otherwise you would know who that is

I wasn't even saying I wanted Sombra. Just that she would be more interesting than fucking Hanzo. Hanzo is so fucking boring.

you also have twice his hp you fucking moron

Where the fuck is Alex?

>how does Azmodan punish an immobile, relatively squishy hero with lackluster waveclear
Shove waves into towers. Half-health him and his fellow backline with dunks.

>1v1 laning early game
Uh, probably just dunk the wave, drop out a few minions then walk up and auto the shit out of him. Wave'll crash into his tower and he'll have to choose between going even with you and losing structures.

how could anyone who would recognize her primarily as relevant image make the leap to her being fat and old? it actually makes LESS sense for someone who's been around a long time to intuitively know who she is based on her current appearance

maybe he's so fucking old he doesn't know how to use google, but his grandson told him about "Da four chins"
Wrong. OW is boring in general. Shit heroes, shit mechanics, and a waste of space. At this rate I'd rather have another 5 warcraft assassins instead of any more of those SJW characters from OW. Though some specialists and tanks would be nice.

Wrong. Every character is boring everywhere because I don't like them. Why even waste time releasing characters, they should fucking delete characters from the game till we are back to square one than delete the game.

>play with a junkrat in qm
>he spends the entire first 15 minutes standing far behind waves slowly killing everything with his q

No wonder his winrate is so far in the trash he has a bloody autoattack use it.

give me one redeeming quality about Tracer, Hanzo, D.Va or Genji. Admittedly Ana and Zarya are pretty good but their kits aren't super exciting.

>playing qm

D.Va got nerfed into the ground, when she was released she was fine. Tracer is only good because of Tassadar. I just got done saying Hanzo is fucking boring as fuck, just a shitty version of Genji.

And Genji is actually really fun to play, he's just fucking bullshit because of Infinite Dragonblade at lvl 20 and insane mobility.

What if he Qs me or goes giant killer?

>Q
Back off or extend the trade. Depends on a lot of things here.

>giant killer
You shouldn't find yourself in a 1v1 with him at that point
pool, globe his ass, apply E then walk at him and hope you're a bigger ball of stats

QM is actually more fun than HL, HL is hell.

I want Selendis

Why? The only thing of note she did was be a sock puppet for Amon. Now Ji'Nara on the other hand.

The official forums for this game is worse than fucking Yahoo Answers.

It's so laughably bad it's disgusting to behold.

stress relief slut for Alarak, not much better

There's never been a official video game forum in history where this hasn't been the case

Amon didn't even want to use Selendis, he wanted Artanis. That's how fucking shit she is.

>hl is hell
maybe if you're below diamond

footfags are a disease that must be cleansed

I did it. I got the crappy horse. Doritos be saved!

Don't dismiss that Magic Carpet. It goes with a shit load of skins and is actually pretty nice in motion.

>Playing AS Junkrat in QM
>Enemy frontline consists of Artanis and Johanna
>Their Support is Ana
>We have a Kerrigan and Nova
>I spec for traps to help peel the shit out of Artanis and Johanna, which is honestly really effective
>Yet Kerrigan and Nova insist on trying to dive their fucking Genji and NOT their fucking Ana over and over and over again
>Lose

And even when you aren't retarded and perform your role well, you still lose as Junkrat because stupid fucking assholes don't fucking take advantage of the utility you bring them. God I'm so fucking agitated over that shit.

>Nerdathur still 10,000
oof
feels like he's barely worth 2,000

>can clone any hero for free with his ultimate
>can play as 4 different heroes every game
he should be worth 50k

>Maybe if you're 90% of the player base
Most people are gold or below.

Yeah but you still lose because you're Abathur and odds are your team either A) Didn't draft around you properly, or B) It's QM so you're at an absurd disadvantage majority of the time because he's so fucking comp dependant.

HL is a muddy ass swamp of repetition that gets boring after the first 30 games. This is coming from someone who plays up to Master every season for the rewards and can't fucking go on any longer because I get so fed up with the game after getting there.

Yeah but do you really want baddies getting that hero for cheap?

They should increase the cost to 100k to keep shits off that hero

>waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah why isn't this hero good in every situation and every comp and every map!!! 2k gold hero please!!!

>Murky and Malthael develop a strange sort of understanding and acquaintanceship due to their mutual desire to wipe out humanity.

I like these sort of small and unexpected interactions.

It's more to do with the fact that he's the single most multi-variable-reliant hero in the entire game. I can't stand the fact he's so popular in QM because he relies on SO many factors working in his favor. It's so fucking weird. So here's hoping they give him some good buffs to make up for the fact that he's getting the shaft with these tower reworks, since he's relied upon draining tower ammo for pushes.

>Everything Alarak says and does.

>still a virgin
Someone doesn't know warcraft lore.

>I'm a bad Cho, just want 50k xp so I can play someone else
>not good enough to carry the Genji and Twin Blades Varian
>Genji keeps bitching that I'm not peeling/tanking for them and it's not hit fault he keeps dying solo
>still win after a teamwipe because nobody defended against the BFG push during obj
I should've just selected AI.

Malthael did nothing wrong

>You periodically get to use a hero without talents or ults for 20 seconds.

Honestly most of the time his hat worries me more than anything else he can do.

WOULD YOU HIT THIS FAGS?

Help me into team comps and drafting. I have no clue what to do or who has good synergy with who.

Please point me out to the particular time where Jaina lost her virginity. Oh wait, you can't.

Pick two supports.
Pick two warriors.
Pick an assassin who isn't some squishy fuck like Tracer.
Make sure everyone has aoe skillshots and/or some disables or cc.

Prepare to fire Spear of Adun

...

protoss don't reproduce like humans... they don't have tits either, because they don't breastfeed kids...

In one of the books about Arthas. She and Jaina fucked a lot.

>47 played
>38 played
>14 played
Bwuh??

Why are there female and male protoss? How DO they reproduce?

I meant He, I was thinking about those pictures with Jaina and Sylvanas.
