Is abathur worth 10k?
Testing him in the test mode doesn't do it justice at all... Should I buy?

I know this is gonna sound dumb, but I think the way Blizz justifies her tats being out and her looking all smutty is because like Greymane, she's riffing off old cop movies which were pulpy and had a lot of cleavage.

only if you have excellent map awareness

Abathur is a mastermind style hero so if you don't have 200IQ you and your team will suffer immensely because you won't be impactful. However, he's one of the more unique heroes in the entire genre if not THE most, so I recommend playing him eventually for sure.

Getting easy level 10 on the whole roster is at least 800 levels, then you pick a few mains and put those to 20+, in perspective 1000 is not that much

Yes.

No

Weaker in the lategame, much better in the earlygame. Will be a very strong factor in snowballing games.

There is a chance, however small, that Blizzard pulls a 5000 IQ patch notes and somehow Varian comes out of this patch positively. However, doesn't look good from initial looking.

He is a lot of fun if you enjoy rts style games. You need to be aware of 2 lanes, your body location, and be ready to hat any team fights or ganks.

he can burst your ass at lvl 4 now. Only qm-shitters think he is trash

Elisandre when?

How do I play valeera? I hardly do any damage, all I do is help gank but once late game hits i'm almost completely useless unless the enemy team dives and forgets their healer in the back.

i'm somewhat worried about all of the nerfs coming out at once but yeah. honestly the only thing that i think is kinda trash is the change to shield wall, but warbringer got made into a very strong talent, so we'll see how it works out.

locate squishy, burst, delete, or disrupt the enemy team while your team is fighting them to deny say, an AA hero their AAs, or a mage their abilities.

She's gank assist and counter- engage, that's about it. She's not a dive hero, you aren't meant to dive in on the healer, you silence the tank or their Overshit hero when they dive in and then your team fucks em up.

go full q build now

Switching to HL instead of QM is working great! Instead of only winning some games, I just get to lose all of them. Forever. And ever.

stop not doing Brawl.

I try to delte but I always go oom, and when I take energy talents I don't do damage

I know she's not but I see other valeeras doing tons of damage but I'm usually bottom or close to it.

okay going to try it out now, I've never bothered because I use q to escape but I'll give it a shot

make me mate

personally i go vigor and thistle tea, beyond that it's E talents. the big thing is not wasting energy with W unless you can hit multiple heroes. open with your stealth ability then Q twice, eviscerate for single target. be sure you auto attack, her AAs are pretty strong just because of how fast they are.

That's what I usually go, but I'll stop using my w then I usually just spam then I can get evesicrate off, I'll try playing like that after i try out q build.

Try this build.
psionic-storm.com/en/calculateur-de-talents/valeera/4.3-1-1-1.2-2.3-1-4.1.2/

You can tell just based on that? I finally won my third game of HL today, so I feel a bit better, despite the 7 losses.

yeah, W is a huge energy sink and it'll make it harder to get off your eviscerate quickly. sinisters are 30 energy, blade flurry is 40, evis is 25. with her energy regen you can just straight up do three sinisters and evis immediately thanks to the regen, but throwing in a flurry mucks things up.

>guy picks stitches last pick when we already have Garrosh
do some people just like to lose or do they seriously just not get it?

>not going full abduction team with stitches medivh garrosh stukov diablo

hello???

I'll get around to it eventually.

>brawl
>enemy gets two thralls
least fun ive ever had desu

crash lightning is still OP
fuck that stupid ability you cant even dodge it after it's stacked you just straight up take 600 damage to your whole team every 8 seconds with no counterplay

I fucking hate Gold / Plat. Everyone thinks they know how to play the game, but in fairness, we just don't. We always overextend, we always sacrifice teamfights in order to get a camp, we always focus the wrong enemy on the fights.

I just wished that gold and plat players could just stop acting like they are high skilled players and could just focus on improving their game mindset.

Did this against a team of all auto attackers and a healer and got mvp, wasn't top dps but was close

Gonna try when I play against a mage or something so e is usable, I was trying not to use my w my last game and it did help though

Just say "post your face when I don;t get what I want" faggot.

Q is the best right now

I want talandar as a multi-class hero, when they announced varian as one I thought they were going to make a couple more but nothing.

Don't think it's better above plat.
Low master is probably the most disgusting elo in this game, there's a lot of boosted players who think they mastered the game, and there's NOTHING you can do to tell them they're wrong.

Try the sympathy angle. It works sometimes.

I thought QM players were bad but I have discovered Brawl players are literally disabled.

Ragnaros, Alex and Blaze are the cutest heroes in this game!

what a great job you did Blizzard

I downboated your reddit thread :(

garrote is always usable, unless you're up against like, a butcher or something. most heroes are reliant on their abilities for peel or escape.

would you rather play for 50 fucking minutes and lose? shut up

so you prefer games feeling like a bot team/enemies, already predetermined in pick selection. ok

stop playing this game

I've been told to always horrify tracer, but she always jukes it with recall. Am I too predictable or can she actually recall after she notices I've cast it?

horrify takes 0.5 sec to activate, so if a tracer is ready she can recall out. best to cast it in conjunction with a stun in that case. remember those caught in horrify run away from its center, so keep in mind how you aim in on them too, you could end up fearing them away from wherever you want them to go.

I just saved up 10k wanting to get Varian before I saw the changes.

Now that he is "NERFD" should I get him anyway?
I don't care he's not op, I just hope he's still viable...
Else I use 10k on box rerolls for skins.

His damage was nerfed, but now can get his ults sooner. I don't think he will be totally obsolete but now you do have to play smart then just walking out everything.

If they were hovering it from the beginning, your fault. Why didn't you pick support?
