Jokes aside, people who're actually good at the game are less likely to flame their team in-game even when their team does suck. You'll almost never see people bitch unless they're very obviously the worst player on the team.

THE CRUSADE CALLS

>>128622225
In other mobas you can carry, so like in league if you are bronze or gold it is 100% your fault, but people think they are just being held back by their teams, which is not the case because you can carry games.
>>
Why is Brightshit so bad?
>>
>>128622023
I promise, I'm not so saintly that I can keep myself from flaming in game when I get frustrated.

Right now I'm just talking about the psychology though. Bad players are less likely to evaluate their own mistakes and realize their screw ups than good players, if they could, they probably wouldn't be so bad.

That might not mean a whole lot on its own since it only explains why a lot of bad players don't ever seem to get better, but I think it should be a given to everyone that flaming isn't practical. No one ever listens to that shit, and in the worst case scenario you're going to play worse for and your team will play worse for it. At best it's the last resort you go to when you've decided you're doing all you can to win the game and your team needs to get it together.

If you can bring yourself to believe in both of those statements, it draws a pretty easy conclusion. A bad player will not be able to evaluate their mistakes, as a result they will not be able to identify what they can do to win a game, so they're more inclined to flame because a good player in a similar situation will be able to identify what's wrong and find ways to solve the problem, or failing that they probably won't flame because it's impractical when they want to win.

Plus anyways, set yourself aside entirely. Just watch for the people who complain when you're playing, and I bet you'll find that it's usually the guy on your team who's making his own calls when the rest of your team is all on the same silent page.

Yeah, the game is fine. I've heard a lot of new players complaining about matchmaking time, though, so maybe there's just issues with the matchmaker trying to find games for players without many games.

You've chosen a really shitty moment to start playing. The current meta is all about stuns and burst damage. So, if you plan on winning, learn to play either Kael, Diablo, Tyrande, Muradin or Raynor. These are the current top picks and they outclass all other heroes by far. Balance patch next week, here's to hoping things change.

The comp thing may just be coincedence, but it WILL match you with players below your MMR to "balance" out total MMR on both teams.

Which means it purposefully puts you at a bit of a disadvantage with your teammates.

So my question is, is kill xp when they're lvl 12 significant enough to not try and save a fort? I told him chasing was worthless at that point and he spent the rest of the match blogging about how I need to learn the math for this game. Oh, and then he blamed me (heal spec) for not securing 3 kills when we lost with like 7 to 30 something kills.

unlike most other heroes, Muradin actually has more than one viable talent choice in some tiers and picking Infused Hammer, Sledgehammer, Crowd Control Give 'em The Axe, or Unstoppable Force is all sometimes right.

>Play Diablo

Blizzard is a fucking liar, told me they fixed matchmaking and then suddenly putting me in this. Fucking hell, that was the most suffering of a wombo combo I had to watch everyone suffer
>>
>>128658575
Pretty sure Give em' the Axe is never better than Stoneform. Unless they have that shit of damage. In which case it probably doesn't matter your going to win anyways.
>>
>>128658780
in a case where Give 'em The Axe is better than Stoneform, you've probably won in matchmaking anyway, but I added it in because it's fun
>>
>>128649047

Leoric is a very easy hero to play. Almost Raynor tier. Not a big surprise his winrate was fairly even/high first week or two when he has practically no skill cap.

Greymane is actually fairly difficult. He has no defense besides E which goes on cd if you don't open with either ult. He does mad damage though if he gets unleashed as worgen but worgen greymane is also has a guaranteed "focus me right now" effect to every enemy player's mind.

He has interesting talents so it'll be good to see how he settles in coming few weeks. A lot of different builds possible.

I feel like that's why so many people are sleeping on him. He's one of the few heroes in this game with an actual skill ceiling above mouthbreather level.

>>
>>128659901
>>128663180
I've seen people complain that they have to turn back into a human, when I find his human form is actually generally more useful.

His Worgen form is basically like an ult used to finish people off or put pressure on people and then quickly let up. He's not someone you can just charge like crazy with you've got be more surgical picking when to go all out.
>>
>>128664028

Yeah, I think people don't seem to understand human form is for poking and whittling people down and you pop wolf when you're ready to blow them the fuck up. He seems really fucking strong as long as you're not shit at positioning and timing.
>>
>>128663714
People really underestimate just how insane burst damage he can really do. 1v1 there aren't many heroes that can beat him.
>>
>>128664028

I just had the best vikings game. The art on my team was lv 13 with vikings and he gave me a lot of tips. It was a bit hard though. I've never been terror AND vikings at the same time. Also, splitting up for anything other than lanes is still a nightmare for me. We won though.
>>
>>128664365
She can only heal one person at a time and has no burst heals. A lot of the time if your team is focusing targets properly you can burst through her heals, but youre better off attacking someone she isnt healing or morales herself if she is out of position enough. She really isnt that broken, rehgar is a better healer in my opinion.
>>
>>128671064
When tyrande gets nerfed and the tone down stuns and maybe hit burst, Moralas will probably be op.
>>
>>128671064

She seems to make it absolutely impossible to lose a lane unless she's a shitter or WAY out of position.
>>
>>128671317
So focus that lane harder or push a different lane and force them to defend. Its not rocket science. Without coordinated teammates it might aswell be.

I feel like Abathur has a lot of variety in terms of builds, depending on maps and comps. Especially in QM, where he's not relegated to crazy pushing all game.

However, I can't help but worry if I'm fucking my team by grabbing certain talents. What talents are completely worthless or just don't stand alone?
