first for fuck overshit

There is no balance or shitter-who-can't-play-said-hero.
If one hero is able to easily kill dozen others and still run away like nothing happened, then that hero is op.

Sure, individual skill matters, but it doesn't change the fact that you have to employ all of your experience and all of your skill and sweat it hard to kill that one hero who's just right clicking you and using his kit.

Therefore, there is no balance.

Zul'jin nerfs when

with the Sonya spear patch, mage build only probably

After they finish with sonya.

sonya getting gutted? thank fucking god

Johanna is cute. Johanna is best girl. Johanna is for hours long rimming sessions followed by the best anal you'll ever have.

Johanna likes kids (but doesn't really have plans for any of her own) and really wants an apprentice.

she´s getting buffed

Johanna is for casually murdering people when embarrassed.

Link didnt work :(
>"Some fellow mistook me for a templar yesterday. I asked him: have you ever heard me shout 'GLORIOUS!' He answered, 'I have now!'" (chuckles) "He was a witty fellow. Shame he's dead now."

Keep poking her.

Thanks sweetheart.

Rate my gazlowe skin. I call it "Enunciatinng Gazlowe"

Is Nova X Valeera the best ship?

I got to player level 10 but I did not get a new free hero.
Do I have to do something special to choose one? At level 5 (?) I got a choice between three heroes. Why did it not happen at 10?

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


No pic cos im not at home

LET'S GO FOR A RIDE!

Reminder to self to add 4 extras because I copied it from an older thread

I've never leveled an account in the new system but I don't remember seeing getting a free hero at level 10 anywhere.
The only thing that comes close is if you had a recruit a friend link that gives you Raynor, and then Sylvanas at 10.

Because that's not how it works. You only get the "free hero" at 10 if you accepted someones recruit a friend invite, and even then the hero you are given is sylvanas.

What made you think you got a second free hero at level 10?

Seems like I misread/misunderstood the free hero thing. Fair enough

>tfw your ancestors approve of you
MY ANCESTORS ARE SMILING AT ME SLAVE, CAN YOU SAY THE SAME?

...

holy fuck bros

Fuck those kiddies that use the dumb Joker skin for Junkrat. They are even shittier than your usual Junkrat player.

What are ya, queer or somethin'?

>morales
kill yourself

What's the best way of playing spell zuljin on big maps like sky temple? Even focusing on auto attacks to get my double spin, I seem to get it late on these. Double lane maps are so easy but not bigger ones. Any tips?

>be Garrosh
>throw 19 stacks Kael'Thas into the enemy team
>run away

She is a 10/10 in her official art
Just ugly in hots

I always do that in quick meme especially if we are losing
Great feeling

Wish I could have thrown the KT on our team into theirs.

>Pick up a regen globe while he's miles out of lane doing mercs and the enemy team has been pushing me out regularly
>get a tirade of abuse

Picking globe talent as Kael'thas is bullshit and lame.

Best part is he didn't even have that, he was just apparently megapissed that he didn't get the regen globe.

Except Li ming uses protoss armor and has nerve cords, i'm oretty sure that's just Valla cosplaying as Jaina/Nova

>TWINBLADES VARIAN
EVERY
FUCKING
TIME

Why do people do this, holy shit.

Zagara is not shit. SHE IS NOT.

Varian's a tank that can DPS :^)

She is with default skin.

Where the FUCK is Maiev?!

>you will never raise strong healthy children with Sonya

>ywn be sonya's cumdump and cockcleaner

>Sonya will never get you drunk on her dickstink

I would use Sonya's ass as a pillow.

>overshit

Arthas, Chormie, Stukov is superstrong secret new tech

where can I watch the vods of this?

Hots is really easy compared to OW

What am I missing ?

I think he is saying fnatic lost because they have an overwatch hero. I could be wrong.

And Black lost the earlier game where they had Junkrat

Fnatic also had 3 Diablo heroes, maybe that's why they lost.

jesus fuck, can we clean up this fucking op eventually

>mmm mug ow op heroes
Sure you faggots can you tell me why is valla the best assassin
Why is sonya the best bruiser
Why is monk the best healer
Why is li ming the best mage
Why is diablo the best tank
Why is nazeebo the best spec
If anything is broken then it is the diablo heroes

swap cassia and jaina and it's perfect

>sonya the best bruiser
getting nerfed
>monk the best healer
lol
>li ming the best mage
we're well past her release now
>diablo the best tank
because it's fucking diablo
>nazeebo the best spec
lol

>Why is monk the best healer
>Why is li ming the best mage
>Why is diablo the best tank
>Why is nazeebo the best spec
lmao

Only Sonya is indisputably the best in class on that list and she's getting nerfed.

Veeky Forums won't let me post the link and I'm done trying to avoid the spam filter, but its on the GCWC twitch page already. It's all in one 12 hour vod so you'll need to skip the RNGstone bit.

I will try to find it. Thank you bro.

HOLD FUCKING ON
can I get infinite sadism with rite of rakshir?

>be Azmo
>allied Garrosh keeps throwing me into enemy team
What did he mean by that?

Yeah
If the enemy team feeds enough and you get 200% and finish chaos reigns you 1 shoot li ming valla tracer and junkrat
I think

>I was messing in trymode what the max sadism is.
>It is 550%: 100% base, 30% from takedowns, and 420% from Rite of Rak'Shir.

seems like I found a new main

>420%
hmn yes dude you have served your HIGHlord well lmao

...

He knows Azmo struggles to engage due to being so slow when lasering, he is helping.
You are also a big guy, that means you do HUEG throw damage.

>got plat 5 last season

Since when does Mario Party have a ranked mode?

Dude, don't tell anyone but Daisy is going to be a top tier pick during the Koopa's Seaside Soiree meta.

It seems as though my favourite terrorist has ultimately landed himself in chen tier. What should we do?

>Just needs marginally higher Q damage or reduced CD on it, his kits solid for the most part.

Nothing, I hope people stop playing shitty Overshit heroes.

Daisy was nerfed the last patch, I don't think anyone will pick her if you have Rosalina free this week

i have 500 games on alarak with 75% winrate if you ever die as alarak you have goofed and need to consider suicide

RPP UPDATE CUNTS

what happens if i dodge the draft while doing my placement games??

you have to play with the rapscallions in low prio qm and i think you lose the game for free. your actual mmr isn't affected though.

t. plebbitors

Diablo just stunned me for like five seconds!

Nothing, you'll just have to play a leaver game or two in Quick Match or Brawl.
