Hey, so I'm reading a bit more of the fluff and I have trouble piecing together something.

Why is it that so many fan depictions and descriptions of Tyrande have her two timing on Malf with Illi? Or seem to indicate that she has a thing for him?

Everything I've been reading says she never had romantic feelings for him of any kind.

they add heroes based on unique silhouettes and shaping the meta, not based on the fame/status/popularity. They saw the meta was really stale when it came to ranges assassins, so they added two new ones, and went with the ones with unique silhouettes and mechanics that didnt exist in the game.

Did people who care about this game really not watch the blizzard dev panels at blizzcon? Fuck, youre all a bunch of casuals.

Sonya's pretty good
you can clear camps super quick, map objectives are no problem, if you have half a brain, you can even solo Boss

ETC is a bit harder to carry, but as long as you get some good powerslides and a nice Mosh, even the most retarded of teammates usually get it

Thrall is pretty alright too if you just want to spend time picking off stragglers and people who have shit positioning

i guess Blizzard wanted to be "hip" and "with the times" and give a chick the skrillex haircut because of the SJW fantasy of the "powerful womyn who don't need no patriarchy" or something

i don't fucking know, i want gender swaps of all the D3 heroes, that was fucking point of being able to create your own character

Male/Female version of:

Witch doctor
Monk
Barbarian
Crusader

if any when Wizard gets in, there better be a fucking way to get both male and female

They already did two unlikely gender swaps with barb and crus, might as well go all the way

No, she was not. The same with Johanna in HOTS. They added items matching their names to Diablo 3 to connect the lore. They were not real or named people before HOTS created them.

$25 - a detailed list of specifics and a copy of the chat log + game replay annotated with the specific point which broke the rules, as well as a heads alert message when the punishment for said player expires

$50 - a personal block list to never be paired up with that specific player again and each time they log into the game, they have to justify their existence and offer 1/4th cup of blood to verify identity

More organized games than QM because you avoid the hellish no-support games, are able to end up with ON AVERAGE better teamcomps and can get rank 1 which shows you're either somewhat competent or somewhat lucky.

also can we seriously take the SJW shit to either /v/ /pol/ or 7+1chan instead of here

Bragging rights mostly. If you want to join a team nearly every single one will mandate that you are Rank 1 and/or have 2500+ MMR

Anything with a skillshot, TLV has map dependent strats and maps that you definitely should not play them on.

Nova has super high potential if you can take Gathering Power and not die, especially with the right team comp and map.

I won 12 straight hero league games on my first road to rank 1. I was happy at first, then very suspicious of the matchmaking.

And of course, after that, I lost something like 10 of my next 11 games games. I guess the matchmaking had enough. It was also at that point that I realised if you're just solo queueing, your ranked in rank doesn't mean that much since most of what determines if you're going to win or lose is based on luck with the matchmaking system rather than your own skill, but that win streak was fun while it lasted.

also no map is as much of a waste of effort when behind as BHB is

>>123216318
Most heroes only fit 2 of the three. Tyrande is the first that comes toind as powerful, versatile, and having a high skill cap. Kharazim, too, though his damage build is extremely situational and you just want to go full healing 99% of the time. Abathur is incredibly powerful in the right hands, and has multiple builds depending on map and team comp, but he's completely different from anyone else and may not be your cup of tea.

Ok, I'm still trying to level up from 17 to 40 here. Should I just stick to versus AI since I observe that quite a number of teammates I play with still havent gotten rid of their other MOBA mentality of sticking into a lane when HotS downright encourages early teamfights? It makes Quick Matches frustrating when it happens on your team no matter how much you try to warn them to help you on an objective
