>many new skins will be gem only from now on
dont fall for the year long stimpack jew

>gem-only skins
These are dark days.

literally only 1 per new hero

As I was saying, people act like hots is easy, but they are full of shit. I have 12k games under my belt and learn something new every other game still. I'm still tightening up certain things.

It's not easier it's simpler. Simple =/= easy as is evident by the fact you can lose the game in 8 minutes or less if you fuck up

Imperius when? Itherael when?

>I have 12k games under my belt
AI games don't matter.

I've only done ai for the events and only to boost some friends up. What kind of faggot you take me for? Real talk though hots has plenty of easy aspects but they've developed the game beyond any one person at this point. It just get's harder as the time goes too, because people are rapidly advancing.

mum

>the butthole in that pic

fucking god tier

If you don't use this skin, why even play Hanjo ???

excuse me, please share

>1650 gems

>game has simple mechanics therefore it is easy

Would love to see the brainlets who think this play chess against a grandmaster. And it's not like Hots is even any more simple than it's counterparts.

I don't even want to play him, and the gem situation already tilts me.

What is Alexstrasza doing in this picture? Why is she making that face?

sneezing

feels good i think

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

youtube.com/watch?v=SVYmPIJt2BI

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

Medivh and KTZ are hard in that if you fuck up your placements, positioning and timing you're pretty much useless, more so than other heroes.

>Two hero drops in a row
>Both are dupes

Stop making me want to waste gold on non-legos

>not available through shards
What the FUCK

...

Another clip from the depths of Silver-Gold

I feel like they significantly reduced the frequency at which you receive the quest, although it might've been bugged before as I got it almost every day.

>Sylvanas is now the only turbo pusher that matters

nova cucks on suicide watch LMAO

Mounted Archery kind of insane for scouting, kind of cool talent too

REPOSTING.

ALSO REMEMBER TOMORROW OR THE NEXT DAY MOMMY FIX AND PROBABLY BUFF.

Looks like Buru's style.

What is wrong with people? Should we have given these apes access to technology?

She's only been out for a week tho, they don't buff/nerf heroes until two weeks mate

balance patches happen on Wednesdays dumdum

Read the forums yuropoor.

They literally said that her W was fucked up with the update and that has to be fixed ASAP, plus that they know DragonQueen is not as powerful as they wanted to so they're trying to see if she gets full HP when you cast it and that her Q should use a flat amount of heal instead of % depending on her HP.

>TOMORROW OR THE NEXT DAY
>Reading comprehension
Is this what American education does to the people?

>tomorrow
it's factually not coming out tomorrow so you're still a retard

>it's just QM

ok shitter but you're the ape here

You can't understand anything that was written americuck so go back to learn what is reading comprehension before calling anyone a retard, because that's what you are.

I been to low gold a few times and I always end up shoot back to diamond. I cant wait for the new system thoug. The moments where I'm climbing and getting back to back mvps should take me even further. I can't wait to finally be master.

Half of the thread can't even play the easiest heroes in this game so what the fuck do you expect?

don't you have a somali family to feed mr. yurocuck

>elitist attitude as fuck
>bronze 2

>Ad hominem
Can't you come up with something better my dear amerifat with shitty education?

Aw you tilted because performance based matchmaking coming out? You going to slip to bronze 5 soon?

Bets?

It's a reasonably comfy time down here.

Not even close my dear sweetie, 2 entire seasons on GM while you're stuck on plat.

You have no right to talk here underage fattie.

>silenced tilted garrosh spends entire game throwing his team into their deaths
silence isn't enough they need to outright ban this shit it's getting old

I've been gm since 2.0 on 3 accounts git gud

For some reason this seems to be the best tint for this skin, the Ice one looks nice but is too fucking blue.

My feeligns are that they either need a now tolerance policy to anything, OR they need a laze faire attitude like csgo. This grey area bull shit is confusing to both sides.

Battlefield of Eternity is one of the best maps because of the Loading Song alone

when is daddy coming

>need an account
fuck

fukn YO

Completely forgot about that.

imgur.com/a/jyO61

>stats include bot games
haha why

I really wish they let you buy individual tints with gems if they're gonna fuck us in the ass like this. I really want that one but I don't want to spend 15 dollars for skins I won't use and I don't want to support what Blizzard is pulling now.

That's what I call the perfect female body.

can they be stopped?

>cho'gall exists
oh yeah

>activates neo-steel coating

Nice armor, too bad it ain't worth spit.

Just ban out Leoric and Cho'gall rips.

Tychus and Malthael are both shit now so picking into them isn't even a liability anymore.

>can they be stopped?
only by half the games assassins

How is that bad you dumb nigger
She gets that + One in the chamber or anti armor shells

>Attacks now apply a 3-second stacking -5 Armor debuff to all targets, stacking up to 20 times (structures included)

yoo hol up

basically means if you don't kill the firebat lane it fucking dies

this plus azmodan general, merc lord, and the promote talent will SMASH lane

This skin fucking when??

Wait who are the two on the left?

Valla and Nazeebo skins

d-do women really want you to puncture their cervix?

what do you think?

>be alexstrasza
>lose

Sounds about right

QM is going to be a shitshow.

>Do men really want to stick things inside their urethra?
The answer is the same - some do I guess.

>All attacking structures no longer have ammunition.
>Walls will now be destroyed if their connected Towers and Gate are also destroyed. Walls can still be attacked normally.
>Standalone Towers (found next to Forts and Keeps) have been removed.
>The Health, granted Experience, and Damage of Standalone Towers has been redistributed into their surrounding gate Towers, Forts, and Keeps.
>Tower damage to minions has been reduced by 25%
>Minion base damage has been increased by roughly 10%

It's a porn maymay, you have to have a literal pencil penis to penetrate through the cervix opening. Like less than thumb girth but still pretty long.

It's possible to stimulate the cervix though if you have a long dick, gives girls lots of cummies.

Why does Diablo sounds like a good/chill guy
I have no idea about diablo lore so tell me

>playing HotS instead of DotA

>playing dota post-2015

I've heard hitting the cervix is actually quite painful, but it's probably possible to make it something pleasurable if you go about it right

Going into other peoples threads to post unpopular opinions.

Based on a really weird conversation I had with a girl from work at some point it's apparently like being punched in the stomach but from the inside out. So probably only nice if into being beaten.

>/v/ doesn't even like dota anymore
Times change

>19 deaths before the second objective
oh I had forgotten what plat was like

Left or Right?

>do self-imposed "no death" challenges
>learn that basing your playstyle on what decisions are the least likely to get you killed and most likely to have an impact is actually the most optimal way to play
Hours of this made me realize that everyone else plays as if they're Murky.

Light-blue looks sexy as fuck because is shiny latex but the dragon is entirely light-blue/Blue/a bit of white and it doesn't look that good.

Right has that weird ass gold tint that looks more diarrhea in both human and dragon form, but the dragon is fucking awesome, white with red and some diarrhea bits.

I'd say blue all the time and right just when you get tired.

why not default skin

I like it but the dragon looks like dogshit in-game

Sonya nerfs when

Anduin and Maiev when??

t

Fuck off with your tranny cuck kids (((show))).

really? that's a shame

you have a comparison on hand of the dragon skins?
