>>
>>135217482
>So what do the bird people do anyway
If we take WoD canon, they were major assholes, even to their own kind. Basically one of their gods/champions killed another god/champion but was cursed as a result. He and his followers had a literal fall from grace where they couldn't fly anymore, which considering they're bird people meant a lot.

In WoD you basically help out of the fallen ones and fuck with the uppity ones that can still fly, but in BC you fuck with the fallen ones because the uppity ones all died when the planet ruptured. In both cases, they're just bird people that want to preserve their way of life/gain back what they lost and do so by fighting anything they feel is threatening their ways. In WoD its more a struggle for survival because the uppity ones are actively persecuting/killing the fallen, while in BC they just want every race to fuck off. Also like >>135217715 says they have no care for what type of magic they use, hence the reason why a lot of them in WoD eventually go and join Gul'dan since he promises them their flight back.
>>
>>135218461
>Activatable trait makes you take a swig of your flask of shadows to stealth but also reveal a large area around you, allowing you to prey on other stealthers

Fuck yeah, I'd love it.
>>
>>135218598
>Basically one of their gods/champions killed another god/champion but was cursed as a result
I probably should have added, the god that was killed wasn't one of theirs. It was a flying serpent that wanted to eat the birds. So its especially dickish when the birds that can still fly start attacking the fallen ones despite their sacrifice for stopping the serpents.
>>
I think this is the first time I bitch about this, but seriously. why does blizzard put you in games with guys that are too fucking good or too fucking bad?

Man this makes me sad, he'll still be my go to hero since I can play around this but I'll miss being able to DO SOMETHING in teamfights as a healer other than stay in the very back like a bitch boy and let 10 HP KT get away.

Such an extreme nerf, why does Blizzard do this to my mains? First it was Tychus no longer having Odin as a second HP bar and now it's this.

it would be a step in the right direction, imo. Blizzard is too fucking retarded to do shimmers. I can barely see the shimmer on High detail on maps like Tomb of the Spider Queen or Garden of Terror (night). On medium it's visible as hell, can't miss it. On low it's still worse than medium, but no where near as bad as High.

>>135220816
Artanis is almost certainly getting Zealot Charge baseline. They hinted at it with no subtlety and after his winrate DROPPED after the changes, he's probably going to get a massive buff to make up for it.
>>
This Ancestral nerf is ridiculous. Why not just buff the rest of the supports? Rehgar isn't overpowered. Now he's boring again.
>>
>>135220973
That winrate drop can easily be explained by shitters seeing a hero they hype-bought/got for free and never played again being given a shit load of changes.

>>135221165
Rehgar main here, I feel that this is definitely a considerable change but some games it's so easy to keep myself alive that it's ridiculous, it was needed.

Though I have to say that self-casting my ult is less than 5% of what I do with it so it's not going to be such a big nerf for people who were already good at Rehgar, it just won't be a crutch for newer players anymore.

It's complicated.

In general, you're more useful when diving than frontlining. Try to jump on the closest immobile squishy and drop your damage on them. If they try to run, chase them with BB speed and autos until your damage cds are back up. If they turn around and try to kill you, drink (if they have no interrupts up) or use BB speed to dodge interrupts and skillshots. Never expect support when diving in, so always make sure your ult is ready to get out before jumping into a bunch of people that can kill you easily.

After 16 (or 13 if you took touch of honey) you can start peeling most melees effectively. Basically, if an enemy melee has a catch on one of your teammates before you start diving, drop your CC and damage on them and get in position to bodyblock for your teammate.

There's a bunch of nuance and shit, but that's a few basics.
>>
>>135223456
>that aspect ratio

pls impqu you're better than this.
Put -1 in one of the fields in webm converter to make it scale naturally.
>>
>>135218435
IMho chen's value comes from his high mobility. you can Q dive the backline squishes, slow and bodyblock them so your assassins can pick them off, then start drinking through all the damage the enemy team tries to dump on you because they think you're overextended.

just my opinion but i don't think you should be standing still

Remember Monk is best when he's in the fight. He's not the type to stand in the back line and heal he's a front liner.

You're fucking retarded. You go from someone who could frontline to a backline healbot.

Sometimes I or other tanks I get matched with see the perfect opportunity to get in the faces of the healer and two main dps in a teamfight basically distracting those 3 players but that can mean most of your team might have to be split between helping you and dealing with the other 2 players on their team.

What do you do in a situation like this where you're on the priority targets but not all of your team can get to them?

Jesus, I wish I could get a refund or something for this shit. They've essentially removed Rehgar from the game.
>>
>>135242190
No, you just constantly get caught out of position in the frontline and taking unnecessary damage, getting the enemy team to focus you down so you have to waste your ultimate on yourself. Good rehgar's know when it's okay to melee, bad rehgar's like yourself only know how to charge in at all times to get some AA damage in.

Good rehgar's have already been playing safe, bad ones have constantly been needing to waste their 100second ult on themselves.
>>
>>135242190
Rehgar shouldn't be up in the frontline as a flex Assassin. He should be around to help clean up and secure kills like Greymane. Which absolutely does not require you to be in the frontline at all times.
>>
>>135242190
>not knowing how to play rehgar an utilize his kit
???

you shouldn't have been needing to ult yourself before....that's just bad play
>>
What do you think of Rehgar's upcoming nerf that removes his ult self-cast?

http://strawpoll.me/7086599
>>
>>135242796
I think it's fine, but they are nerfing the wrong thing, this really only punishes bad players. They should have instead nerfed his base chain heal and health instead of doing something like this. But let's see how it plays out I guess.
>>
>>135242667
>He should be around to help clean up and secure kills like Greymane.
if he had a ranged attack then you might be right, but he's melee. This is why so many melee heroes are awful, everyone memes about how melee heroes shouldn't actually get into melee unless they're Diablo to convince themselves that Blizzard actually knows how to balance

>>135242643
>>135242667
>>135242795
>COULD frontling
I'm not saying you need to be in the middle of their team the entire game, but it's nice to have an option to engage if there's an opening. You could play like a bitch beforehand so the only thing this does is make him less versatile. It's the same thing as the Valla nerf. They took probably the most flexible hero in the game and made her completely one dimensional.

Whoever is balancing this game is completely retarded but I've said my peace. I'll leave the thread since I no longer have any interest.

This game is terrible for solo play. You can't have fun unless everyone knows how to win on each map and is on the same page as the rest of the team. The reliance on your team for almost everything in this game is what makes it incredibly frustrating

How should I build Tassadar? I try to build off his Psionic storm/Archon form, but I feel like i do too little damage to be taken seriously. His ability to solo a lane is great, but I feel like I'm missing something when it comes to his playstyle.
>>
>>135262534
where did i say any of that, you autistic retard?

face it, rehgar is now going to sit way in back and go against his intended playstyle of an aggressive frontline support. expect the "focus morales" effect to be in full force

and bloodlust will still never be taken- blizzard needs to understand that nerfing the good ult into uselessness doesn't make people choose the other ult- it makes them stop playing the hero

>>135262584
archon is shit, thats your first problem
>>
>>135262678
>expect the "focus morales" effect to be in full force
Rehgar can heal himself moralas can't, he can also kite with 30% in combat movement speed and an aoe slow totem.

Good rehgar's never really needed to use their ult on themselves because they position well. Retarded rehgar's always need to use their ult on themselves because they are in the front line getting focused to get a few auto attacks off at inappropriate times and not using their ability to kit. Retarded rehgar's don't pick times to go in, they just go in whenever.
>>
>>135245886
I dont understand why people still keep going on about this "you shouldnt ancestral yourself in the first place" shit, it completely changes how people play AROUND him, its just not comparable

People generally wouldnt focus Rehgar first because of his major heal, now hes a melee Morales, never able to enter melee range again

And to think all their patch notes stated they really liked Rehgars new role as a brawler support, its just fucking absurd

You dont seem to grasp how the mere threat of being able to ancestral yourself changes how people approach the hero

There is no reason to pick Rehgar over Uther/Kharazim on competitive play after this, multiple pros have condemned this change as utter bullshit, but keep going about how "good Rehgars" shouldnt ancestral themselves anyway
>>
>>135262994
>now hes a melee Morales
He's not even close to that, he can kite with 30% in combat movement speed as well as an aoe slow totem. He can also chain heal himself, moralas cannot heal herself. When you play as a backline support who isn't retarded enough to just rush into their entire team, you do fine and you can't get caught easily because of your high health, high movement speed and aoe slow.

He can heal himself more than Tyrande can heal herself (her heal is nerfed by 50% when used on her) just by using chain heal, and he can escape far better than her as well. And your LS is ranged so you can put it on closer targets or even your slow totem if you need to.

What can Tyrande, moralas, malfurion do when they are focused? Malf can put on a hot to not save him from burst, tyrande can do basically healing to herself, moralas can try to walk away without the ability to heal herself. Rehgar? He can rely on his high burst healing from chain heal, his % life shield at 13, his 30% in combat movement speed to kite and escape easily. Bar rehgar's always position badly and need to ult themselves, good rehgar's never need to use it because they know when to go in to auto people and when to play safe.
>>
>>135263347
>comparing Rehgar to ranged healers
lol
>>
>>135263426
The only thing melee about rehgar is his auto attack, his heal, ult and lightning shield are ranged abilities. You don't heal by auto attack, and your chain heal isn't a melee heal.

>>135262584
Just focus on the shields

If you are giving her the same nerf as rehgar you will need to give her 500 more base hp, and 30% in combat movement speed. Also make it so her ultimate now heals instantly after a 1 second delay and can't be interrupted other than the target dying.

will she be immune to interrupts while ulting then? rehgar can cast and do other things, she can only ult and it can be interrupted. if we are making it like his ult then she wouldn't be able to be interrupted and she could do other things after casting it, it would be like a better tranquility that just doesn't heal her giving the 4 other allies more healing
