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
The thread is contaminated. When will Arthas purge us and leave no survivors?

Win all placement games, with memathur. lose 10 games after i got rank. nice game you have there niggs

>it's an aba main episode I hope you win a noose and hang yourself with it.
Brody Collins
Never had anyone say something but hello in unranked. In game people ignore what I say without responding back. I will try to do my placement today, I wonder if it is different. EU btw
>takes 50 games to get from plat5 to plat3 >win my next 5 or 6 just playing thrall and greymane >now plat2 nobody told me it was this easy when I started
Levi Wilson
No one told you to just grind gm?
I didn't know thrall was that good. Is it the new lightning range?
i knew gmane was good but i tried to flex and play things i wasn't happy with like anubarak when i'm way better with melee assassins. thrall is fucking bonkers right now since the 20% increase on lightning bounce range. crash lightning is literally broken since it's easier to stack, your bounces hit for 800 damage at 16 and he's just all around good since he can be in the 4man or solo, both heroics are useful, his root is strong since it pierces. just a really strong kit

You work at blizzard stupid lisp faggot no wonder they hired such a dumb retard. Make an IN GAME page with tutorials, guides, talent calculator, tierlists and in game encyclopedia
Eli Wood
Delete QM.
Ethan Cook
Like a lot of solutions to problems, remove quick match. However that also creates the problem of accessibility, which Blizzard seems to really like. "Widest possible audience" doesn't want to draft, they want to click their favourite hero and press play.
Cameron Johnson
This is ironic, coming from Trik. IDK about his rank in NA, but in EU he's high diamond level.
Zachary Nelson
He works for them as HGC caster, he's no longer in the dev team. >Make an IN GAME page with tutorials, guides, talent calculator, tierlists and in game encyclopedia that's the answer i think
Levi Roberts
you can't force people to improve, end of story really.
Michael Brooks
The typical QM population doesn't care about HGC or increasing their skill. They literally aren't interested in that. I even have friends that just hop into quick match and treat it entirely as a "just for fun" game. Their builds would make people who take the game seriously puke.
As for draft modes, isn't that kind of what ranked does? The whole system exists to increase skill and climb as a result. The people who don't stay low or drop ranks, the people who increase skill and do shit to improve climb. At any rate, even if Joe Bronzie had access to more accessible ways to increase his skill, he wouldn't use them because he's bronze and thinks he's diamond.
Gabriel Jones
gonna have to agree with this. best you can do is what the other anons said and make more information easily available ingame
Justin Cruz
He's talking about ranked i think, he got salty cause players in master don't even know the basics. If they play "just for fun", why do they go in ranked ?
Liam Barnes
Except the people who are interested in improving are looking for that information. The people who aren't don't give a shit and won't use it.
Daniel Flores
are already* looking for that information.
Adrian Murphy
Blind pick mode instead QM. Allow to check "I want to queue with and versus solo players and I accept longer queues" in Unranked. Make seasons last one year in HL (increase rewards accordingly). MMR in TL should be tied to highest person's rating in the team.
Also, decent in game tutorials and working report system would help a lot.
Lucas Sullivan
Sunlight. Budding. Who the fuck knows.
Adam Wright
Tutorial that gives actual rewards. Create these tutorials with the help of pro players.
*shakes head sadly* some people. I can't even believe that these people are allowed to exist. When is Blizzard going to up their ban game and actually ban people who are harming their image?

Hunter Ramirez
I think its up to the community to provide the resources to help people improve. With MOBA games especially, its very much a trial by fire where you go in and get your ass kicked for several hundred games until you realize what works and what doesn't. And because of how many variables are at play in this type of game, there are a lot of nuances and decisions that can be perfect in one situation and the worst possible in another.
HotS has some pretty decent content creators, but its trailing very far behind LoL or Dota in this department. Even as someone who isn't new, there are still a lot of things I don't know, and this is information that the parts of the community who do know (and more specifically, content creators among them) haven't made directly available. Or maybe it is available and out there and just not something that's been found, it could be any number of things. And then of course there's the meta shifting aspect which makes a ton of information irrelevant months later because balance changes.
Xavier Peterson
While I love qm I def think it affects hl. In qm you do whatever and usually the one with the best random comp wins. This is quite much like bad hl games.
Parker Roberts
can someone tell me why lucio is the best and most fun support? he is really the only one i like to play, i feel like i should just main him, im so good with him, i can basically carry if my team isn't completely braindead. i also love the fact that his healing essentially DOUBLES at level 20.
I don't watch people pick talents. I just watch what ult they get and that's that.
Levi Wood
I want to learn how to lucio. I have a hard time to know when to heal and when to speed (ex we are all low on health I pick speed to retreat but team stays). And what talents should I pick?
Carter Watson
>Playing a gay nigger
Carter Williams
Because you like going fast and since his healing is a no brainier you can make any shitty team good at engaging or disengaging while turning the tides. Honestly I think he is too good for such low effort. Only reason he isn't mandatory in OW is due to Sombra fucking him over.
Ryan Powell

Carson Baker
I want to play Probius, but he feels like I could play anyone else and do his job without having to worry about delays and OWshits making his Z worthless. He is great at holding down a fort if he has time to set up but its still pretty rare. Isn't like just a handful of people that can play him now?

yup you were right. 10 minute loss on tomb of the spider because our shithead tank didnt know how to play tank or build tank. he would only Q into groups as diablo and die instantly

>still placing in mid tier Gold for 4 consecutive seasons
man I really suck but then again I really just want decent games without clowny shit on QM and unranked draft is just dead in my region. I also have no time required for improvement. I really need certain tips on map movement (doing camps, ganking, not engaging, etc.)
I learned a lot from watching some gook on stream once when he was communicating with his team via voice chat but nobody actually uses it on my region.
4man heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/thrall#l078 solo or can't stack crash because it's a fuckhuge map like warhead/garden heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/thrall#hEQE your flex talents are at 7 (all), 10 (all). 7 is whatever you can get the most value out of over the match time (maelstrom in longer matches if you take echo where you can safely stack against tanks, follow through is the safest and retard proof, ancestral wrath to burn down tanks) 10 is whatever your team needs but i usually just take sundering as it's a great way to turn teamfights in your favor. EQ is amazing though so think over which heroic is better in the situation
you have to play hundreds of games per season to git gud, there's no way around it in any moba.
