just got unbanned bros

>>1138442
I got back, but only play vs ai for quests and small leveling fow now.
When my friend decides to come back, we will play some qm.

Tbh the idea about steam is growing on me, but i dont really care anymore, i think its decided, that blizzard doesnt need hots. Last blizzcon showcased it clearly, that even when blizzard is down, they just wont try to bring something like hots back, they just dont need that asset, very wasteful from them.

I think the biggest problem for HOTS compared to other games is that it is built on the shitty starcraft 2 engine and they have said in the past its a nightmare to work with. So, unfortunately it really feels like it's a "fuck this old ass game no dev wants to work on it" mentality than a blizzard doesnt "need" it thing. I bet they would fucking LOVE to have a viable moba out right now, but dont want to build a completely new one as their other games are still on fire.

Maybe now they more control of their company that might change stuff with the microsoft buyout...I honestly feel like none of their current games besides WoW are gonna get better and stay on fire. But who knows at the very least HOTS can be played and is still being played to some extent.

I fucking had a blast and loved all the years I spent with it. Uther and Rehgar were the fucking greatest MOBA heroes I have ever played.

>>1142020
Didn't most of SC2 devs leave blizzard by now? The Stormgate team is ex-bliz for example.

>>1142341
Frost Giant does have a bunch of them.
But there's a reddit user who post github repositories of bug fixes and that's why we got bug fixes this year. Seems to me they could just hire sc2 modders to do the actual code.
Or release mod tools for HotS and just every couple months have the community vote on some stuff to put into the game proper, like sc2s map pools have been for years.

having played all the other major mobas, i really liked Hots approach to leveling the most - no need to fuck about with item metas (cringe). Simply choose what your spells do and you can clearly see the effects of your choices. What made me quit this game was the feeling that all the players were either high or drunk, the blizzard audience has no competitive mindset for this type of game. I tried it again a few years ago only to see how badly its visuals have aged. Its just on life support now for those remaining few cash cows.

Forcing players to install kernel malware to play. New champions are either uninspired Disney shit or comic book human edgelords (this has been the case for the past 4 years but now they are woke).

And the list goes on.

They added a merciless chatbanner that autoblocks/suspends you for words like faggot, tranny or retard(ed), and being reported by 2 people gets you wristslapped at the least, banned if it happens multiple times. Its actually made thick skinned banter boy whales quit, its really on another level to accidentally suspend yourself for two weeks cause you describe something you did as retarded woops. But you can also be banned for refusing to communicate, which can apply when chat banned too.
New characters are a joke, as they havent released a solid concept in 2 years (argueably longer) and smell like egs shit inserts, with the newest one being a white man tranny with an asian name.

In addition they have neutered item builds that "take away from team fights" and have jiggered up the classic map to be perfectly symmetrical, fucking up the concept of toplane/botlane.
Then they have also just constantly watered down anything that makes a champ standout outside its predefined role. Death by a thousand self loathing cuts.

If hots is an oliver twistian step child, starving to death but plucky enough to struggle on, leagues is the modern marie antoinnette, vapid, shallow, out of touch with its supporters and oblivious to its upcoming beheading.

Reinstalled for some nostalgia after seeing this thread. This game is pretty good. I played league more and I was in the top 2% or so of league players but I always had a soft spot for this game. Probably because I'm the target audience, I played warcraft 3 a lot when I was a kid.

How do i cassia? her poke feels like ass and her all in doesn't look all that great

pic completely unrelated

>>1157852
Throw spears, blind niggas, keep on shuffling. take spear throw quest, and spears can blind, laugh as you make anything but the meatiest tanks irrelevant.

>>1157852
her poke is ass if you're missing spears, so maybe a skill issue. Hit spears, aggressively stutter step, and post up on the squishiest AA hero or long CD mages.

Cassia's best if she's boxing out heroes that are weak to her by staying close and forcing them to retreat or get shit on, and she's great at making damage trades with her healing talents/protected fend. Just when people people think they can go in for a kill, doing the exact same to them is a ball buster. Her Valkyrie heroic is under rated, too. Great for picking people out of vulnerable positions like Stitches, or nabbing someone when the other team wants to back off.

In short, if you're not playing Illidan, you're trash.

You have significantly more damage and CC if they have Morales or Alex. Both of those healers do nothing but heal with obvious weaknesses. Morales struggles to heal an entire team, Alex is either reliant on having high health, everyone standing in one spot, or healing well every two minutes. Both of them can't self heal well, and neither can deal worthwhile damage. just jump on them

I honestly think it's the result of the reddit hugbox mentality. If you can't be critiqued, or even receive advice without just "toxic, reported" everyone meanwhile trolling or throwing a match by being blatantly retarded isn't seen as toxic there's really no way for the player base to improve as a whole. Nothing more obnoxious than some retard feeding 5 deaths in 4 minutes against a butch and acting like you're the villian for telling him to stop overextending.

two more weeks bro you'll be back in my uncle works at activision blizz

>>1152475
If people report you enough in a certain time frame (few days) then you would get "Silenced" which prevents you from playing ranked games.
When I played back in 2016, players were so petty they'd spam reports on everyone they didn't like. The only counter play was to not talk in chat ever, otherwise "Abusive Chat" reports would be valid.
I don't consider myself particularly toxic. I never really blame anyone because it doesn't win games. I don't feed or throw games if I feel like we're losing or whatever.
But there's something I can't really control myself over is when I get a lower skilled/ranked player to talk shit about what I'm doing when I'm trying really fucking hard to carry the game (as much as possible in a game like this) and let's just say I'm a bit harsh when replying to accusations. Not using slurs or anything but a few "idiot" might slip in.
Doesn't happen often but when I was grinding the ranked ladder, from the sheer volume of games played in a week you only need to get reported in two to three games to get a temp ban.

why can Imperius be knocked out of his ult, this is bullshit

>>1188511
What I want to know is why his Q is basically the lowest priority skill shot in the game. If he presses Q at the same time as another hero with a similar ability it's always Imperius who gets hit, whether it's Blaze or Sonya or Dehaka or whoever

Go 2131223 build. You'll be better than average at macro, still melt faces like you wouldn't believe and your Q becomes less of a "holy shit I need to land this or I'm useless" and more of a nice tool for interrupting or grabbing someone as they run away. People sleep on W at one but it's fucking broken and I'll take it even when facing multiple beefy bois. Mana return, a 55% slow, and a pretty strong poke is way more useful than a %hp that's tied to your auto attack and easily cucked away by blinds or kiting.

>>1191180
W on 1 is hella strong; it's my go to for aram. Basically a mini jaina in your pocket.

Judgement is the best Tyreal ult in 99.9% of games and you'll never convince me otherwise

>>1193361
Sanct is only best if you have a well-coordinated dive team, but in that situation it can be very powerful. Judgement itself is a super strong ult, and even though it's not really Tyrael's best 20, the upgrade for increased range and CD can make it oppressive

I got 10k coins again, how difficult to use are orphea and skutov? still havent decided which one to buy

>>1194461
Oh and imperius, shanking some fools looks entertaining

>>1194461
>>1194465
Stukov is probably the hardest to play but probably the strongest; his silence is absurd, he's got solid burst healing, crazy high AA damage, and two solid ults.
Imperius is also kind of hard because you'll sometimes fool yourself into thinking you're invincible, because sometimes you fucking are. Imperius is high test as fuck and prone to racial animosity, go with him.

>>1194461
>>1194465
Orphea is great fun but can be difficult as you learn her. A very rewarding mage in my opinion, so I strongly recommend. I play her as a poke mage until I think I can burst someone down, but you also need to be able to kite with her Q dash and general movement.
Imperius is a lot of fun, and can be one of the most damaging bruisers. I find he's very strong against low-cc mostly squishy teams when I play him in QM, and I often top the damage in that situation. I agree with the anon above about Imp.
I don't really play Stukov much

>>1194572
>Imperius is high test as fuck and prone to racial animosity
Okay i am sold
>>1194579
thanks! i need more bruisers probably,i tend to suicide myself too much with diablo/yrel/muradin

That's literally the only thing that matters. My very first silence was because I was the scapegoat for the same four man team two matches in a row. I argued with them but wasn't particularly toxic but you better believe eating those 8 reports back to back like that was enough. And given how many times you get stuff like
>hey Naz can you stop feeding butch
>toxic reported
Nowadays I won't even say GG because you can't be reported if you don't type anything.

On that note I'm taking all bets on who's Zeratul was better in this here match

>>1201171
skill issue; nazigga is mediocre at best

>>1202063
Naz shares a lot of similarities to KT. An absolute damage hose with zero mobility that is most dangerous when his enemies are stupid. Both are countered by their opponent being skilled more than anything else

is it worth playing as a disgruntled league of legends player who hates the new season and misses when mobas looked like they'd be more than 3 lanes, towers and adhd micro?

>>1203013
If I understand the question I would say it should be worth trying. There's over a dozen maps which means there's a wide variety of metas and tempos, and a lot of the game is about dynamic decision making and macro control. What works on one map doesn't necessarily work on another, and even the same map can be wildly different one match to the next depending on who took what objectives in what order

>>1203036
Yes, you understood it right. I remember when I loved mobas a lot and many were coming out and each one tried something new and league still had 4 different maps so I thought the future was bright, I never played HOTS back then just because I was content with the direction of league but now I can see HOTS is far more the way I wanted the genre to go. Just downloaded it now.

>>1203066
Just be warned. With the current state of the game and it's playerbase your first levels will be almost entirely smurfs and/or people who got banned for too many reports and are on new accounts. Which is to say you're gonna get a lot of people being pissy pants for quite a while with your playing.

>>1203071
I am used to toxic fuckers in my emerald league games. I have heard a lot about the low skill level of hots players lately so I'll be happy if there's a bit of challenge. The fun in mobas is the discovery period which is why having multiple maps and objectives is so appealing.

The advanced tutorials actually took me more than one try so that's a good sign

>>1203076
One thing is that once you hit level 25 you'll be gifted with 150 gems, and you can use 100 make a one time purchase of a hero bundle with 25 or so heroes so don't forget to do that. A lot of new players don't know about this since the game doesn't really advertise it but it's a good start and a lot of the heroes are worth having

>>1203084
in game with bots atm, having a lot of fun with blaze, the game feels simple mechanically but very skill expressive, I enjoy it and it takes me back to 2015 when yasuo was the most overloaded champ in league of legends history.

You can also take any hero into try mode, even the ones you can't play right now, and test them out against the various camps and the boss to see how well they manage. I recommend using try mode on pretty much any hero before you actually play them to get a feel for their skill shots and shit.

>>1203172
Okay sure, I cant seem to actually find the rest of the heroes. It says things arent available right now.
I am enjoying the small map so far, it reminds me of battle for middle earth moba a whole lot in it's layout and camps. I like farming camps a lot.
I enjoy how at 15 minutes it feels like a slow progression has happened but your like 3x as far in as you would be a league game

>>1203177
If you click on your account icon in the top right corner you can see your roster. From there you can select any hero and it will show the try hero button.

Yeah I used to play league, and had decent fun with it but the 20 minute landing phase was just too much for me. Here I can still lane enough that there's a skill matchup between me and an opponent but I don't have to do it so long that it becomes just tedium. It's a shame what blizzard did to this game, but there's still much fun to be had

I hope there are more camps than the 3 I've seen so far tho

>>1203192
Seige, bruiser and boss are the broad categories. There's differences across the maps though. The siege camp on Braxis holdout is different than the ogres on a lot of other maps. The boss on Warhead junction is it's own thing, the bruiser on Infernal shrines etc. They're all similar but there is differences.

Riot games stopped showing player counts and on my league account I'm leveling que times are like 8 minutes. Que times for quickplay in hots is 3 minutes...

>>1203147
I have no idea which ones you start with, but sylv is really good for pve, since her trait lets her disable towers, minions, and mercs, and she gets even more fun abilities from talents, like boosting nearby mercs, chain reaction-ing minions, or stealing enemy minions
Her biggest issue is just being quite squishy, if you dont have your E off CD, you have no good way to escape(other than just killing the person attacking you, which she can actually do pretty well, especially if you can land mind control)

>>1206764
Bronze tier take. Syl can support a push with other heroes but she has no real sustain, is only in the top 3rd of wave clears, and is absolutely garbage at taking those merc camps in the first place. Her trait is for supporting a team push, like Sindragosa is, not for going off and trying to solo the map by herself.

I tried to explain to my buddy that Uther is basically a support not a healer since his power is in damage prevention and mitigation.

I am so sick of getting no healer into azmodan

Has anyone figured out the hero swap bug in Quickplay? I managed to make it happen the first time I tried it by swapping from Deckard to Anduin and then readying as fast as possible and the game showed I was queued as Anduin but I actually got to play the game as Deckard, which I don't own. If anyone has any insight about this bug or has experimented with it before please share.
Played multiple matches trying it with other characters and couldn't get it to work.

He's good againts engage comps because he's by far the hardest healer to dive
Not saying he's perfect but he has a place

>>1211563
I'll give this a shot, even though it may not be physically possible for me to not click all the W talents

>>1243175
I guess you weren't around when Uther had to be nerfed over and over again because he was so broken it was insane, and even now here's merely really good. Especially since the current meta relies so heavily on bursting down an isolated target as quick as possible, and that's exactly what Uther exists to counter he's still very strong in competent (not yours) hands.
>cooldowns too long, cost too much mana
He's not Malfurion. You need to prioritize his strong heals that also apply armor to the targets that need it, not spam them on cooldown to try and maximize numbers
>no mobility
Good, like Garrosh if he did have it he would be incredibly oppressive with his stun.
>his stun sucks
You're an idiot. Uther makes me think of Tyreal where people who can't play him thinks he sucks, but that's because they can't play him. Those who can and know how think they're incredibly powerful and can be very oppressive with them.

I would like to be able to drop blaze bunker without getting in automatically

>it's a "healer with a total dps of 41.3 (single target) is the only one conscious enough to see that forts/keeps are getting pwnt by winions and exp is rotting on the lane" episode

>>1243727
That feels like an absurd buff if you can choose where to call it down.

>>1244512
Yeah it would be a buff but I don't mean making it a ranged ability, just to be able to drop it without getting in myself in case someone else needs it, sometimes I just want to drop it for a teamate but losing my presence on the fight for 1 second sucks

>>1243175
>dont play for 6 years
>wtf I don't know how to play
I'm shocked anonymous user

>>1246220
At least he isn't in my ranked matches. Seen a few times now where some guy will suck balls or make a silly pick and then check their match history and their last match was 6 years ago against AI or something.

Like hey its awesome that you're coming back to the game and I genuinely don't judge if you suck or whatever so long as you suck in the appropriate places, but maybe try a few warm up QM matches first or something.

See that with some guys sitting there afk trying to read their talents and abilities during a match. Like shit nigga you know there's a try mode right.

The one faggot still updating this game needs to revert the Samuro changes. His sustain is just stupid levels of broken

>>1247641
What you don't like fighting a hero that can self cleanse every debuff and dot in the game while also regenning 1/3 health every 15 seconds?

>>1243602
The nerfs were stricty only for top-end GM play (about 40 people total at the time lol) because people kept picking Uther into Genji. So instead of adjusting Genji, they adjusted Uther, making him unappealing for GM play and downright unplayable for everybody else.

Tyreal is great, nice strawman.
Garrosh is a completely different style of threat, nice strawman.
You can only apply shield by healing someone at the same time, saying Uther is for damage prevention is insanity, if you use his abilities like that then you're 1/5 of a Morales. Speaking of, Morales is a better Uther in every sense if you can aim.

>>1250929
You fucking wood tier nigger. He was nerfed because he was being used as a main tank and was incredibly effective at it because he can fucking spam like 5 seconds of unmissable stuns on a nigga. Also
>you can only shield (I assume you mean armor) by healing
You fucking clown. ALL his heals apply armor. He can literally give 25 armor (50 with certain talents) to the entire team. You're so retarded you either don't know how incredibly strong that is, or just plain didn't know it and that makes you a double retard.
>also comparing him to different heroes with somewhat similar strengths and weakness in a role he is often taken in is a strawman
You're clearly a retard so I'll spare you the embarrassment of pointing out you don't know what a strawman argument is and just end my post by quoting the patch notes themselves
>Developer Comment: Uther has recently risen to the top of the ranks as the most powerful Healer in the game. Whether he's played as a Healer or a Tank, he has proven to be a too effective at his role, so we're reducing some of his overall power.

>>1250929
>>1251091
I forgot this one. He was basically the entire reason the double healer meta existed in the first place (well him and rehgar)
Developer Comment: We’ve found that by increasing the niche of Uther, players could easily build teams with 2 Supports that were incredibly difficult to counter, thereby creating a slow gameplay trend that could be frustrating to play against. We think it’s great to see double support every once in a while, but Uther enabled it too well when paired with almost any other healer. By reducing the Armor he grants via his Trait and getting a little more healing throughput, Uther should feel slightly more well-rounded.

Sweet, I enjoy arthas quite a bit
>all those nerfs
Good, hogger and junkrat are both broken as fuck and seeing them get dumpstered makes me erect.
>yrel...
Templars verdict might still be the best option, just not as much so as before. The rest of her buffs are rather insane. 50 armor for 6 seconds on a 6 second cooldown? That's just nonsense

>>1256518
Yea Yrel is gonna be unkillable especially with the cooldown reduction on her aoe can't fuck with me zone she's gonna have whatever the game caps armor at if you pick the 20.

>>1256663
The level 4 armor talent only gives armor to her allies not herself, still fucking insane and together with the lvl 20 sacred ground talent she basically gives the whole team (including herself) 50 armor every e. I don't think this will make it to live, they'll probably settle at 40 armor for 4 seconds
>>1256518
>Templars verdict might still be the best option
I've been having good success with divine favor lately, it's decent on its own but if you pick it after picking the heal talent at 4 you can give insane sustain if your team is melee heavy, basically becomes a second healer who's also a tanky bitch

Who do you think is the worst hero in each class?

>>1257342
Arthas
Thrall
Kharazim
Hanzo
Butcher
Abathur
If there are worse heroes, I have forgotten they exist. Hanzo is probably better than worst but I have yet to meet a Hanzo that could convince me otherwise fucking 36k hero damage in 30 min aram having ass.

>>1257621
I would change butcher to valeera or maybe illidan and hanzo to Li Ming otherwise right on the money.
