Who balances this shit? Like, really. Illidan is fucking outrageous. You can't pin him so running away just means you get separated from your team with him riding you. You can't out-damage fucking autoattack regen. You can't escape him even without hunt.

If he targets me as Kael, I need to just run n hope someone on my team can peel hard like Diablo. I cannot fight back because he outheals everything I do besides some full combo w/ pyro, everything hitting and a level advantage. Everything I have to kill someone autoattacking me. If he has hunt? Just gg right there, if he picks me to die I will die. Same fucking story with Falstad, Liming and Jaina. Illidan basically hard counters every assassin in the game right now.

Good job Blizzard. I wasn't prepared and removing bolt was best idea ever. So glad Illidan players finally have their true skill unleashed.

This just in: squishy mages oriented towards burst damage are vulnerable to anything that can tank their burst

either play someone that can handle Illidan (Valla, Jimmy, Tychus, Sir Not Appearing In This Film) or deal with the fact that mages have a counter and learn how to work around it

>>137009829
Almost anyone with good cc, blinds or attack speed slow can shit on Illidan. Brightwing, Artanis, Thrall, Xul, Sylvanas, Li Li, Muradin, Johanna, Dehaka, Malfurion and Uther are probably the best counters. Butcher and Murky would be good too if the enemy doesn't have cleanse.

>>137011736
That looks pretty bad
>>
>>137012941
give it a few days for people to figure out what works from experience

until then just do whatever
>>
>>137012941
eu here cant play yet

but i think

immolation
dive range + ally dive
block or thirst depending on comp
ult depending on comp again
W resistance
marked for death pretty safe pick, but 2 others are also good depending on enemy comp and what ult you picked

depends on enemy team alot again

bretty good amount of variability, cant wait to test him later

why am I looking at kael talents and thinking they're hinting at doing some autoattack builds as a fucking mage?

You pretty much need fury of the sunwell now

And don't forget to never miss those strikes, because pyromaniac is kill.
>>
>>137017579
But it chain bombs automatically now. Maybe mages don't need wave clear if they have team fights down.
>>
>>137017579
Yeah the AA build is probably his best right now, you do like 1k damage with 2 autos from your d at 16
>>
>>137017976

So is sunfire enchantment worth taking? I guess I'm taking sun king at 16 yes?

Not saying it's bad at all. It should make your target immune to slows at least. Just had a rehgar ruin a nice pick with 90% totem. My target walked like half a meter before the mind control was over.

Dehaka players are perpetually angry.
>>
>>137021878
I find myself constantly angry when playing characters with even a little bit of global presence.

Like, I couldn't play Zagara, because I felt omnipotent with all my creep, but my team still acted like retards who don't know what the other team is doing at all.

I imagine Dehaka is the same way with his teleporting. Plus, his tongue and burrow effectiveness is almost 100% dependant on his team.

Not saying it is right. He might be making terrible calls, but it feels different and being in that seat gives you the wrong impression.
>>
>>137022459
I kind of understand, but when the Dehaka uses his global presence as the first one respawning to jump into the temple occupied by 5 enemies and die, I don't have a good impression.

Ive said this ad nauseum, the entire dominant specialist playstyle is fucking cancer

People draft xul and think its a free pass to ignore their teammates and park their dumbasses in bot lane and push down a tower while their other 4 teammates get massacred at objetctive in a 4v5

Yes, xul is still broken, but people play him like complete garbage. And yeah, im not exactly 3500 MMR, but i've heard from highlevel players that the high ranks have the same fucking issue.

Also one of the things why people complain about Xul is that if you have your team around you, the bone prison is almost a death sentence for the guy that you target.

according to hotslogs (all leagues, hero level 5+, 3.1.2016 - 26.3.2016):

sum of hero "games played" in HL 20,212,202

that's ~1.6 QM games played per 1 HL game played.
i wouldn't say that is miniscule.

Something like that, anyways. I think it's a good idea to give individual players more power for playing well, but I don't know if this is the way to go about it, as it may encourage questionable play.

His talent tiers are pretty good. He has multiple builds and playstyles but he needs more survivability for himself. Maybe a talent that transfers all damage he takes to Misha for a short time or something.

His play rate is the lowest and he feels rather bland or boring. He doesn't have the unique benefits of being multiple characters like the vikings do and he is suppose to be a tank but Rexxar himself has no tankiness. Illidian jumping on him means he dies guaranteed.

Is this game still not released?
>>
>>137059659
In my experience xul is better for carrying, and considering this is HotS where 1 in 2 playes is completley pants-on-head retarded, greymane might be a bad choice because he feels pretty dependant on everyone on your team being competent. Like with greymane, you're squishy as shit in worgen form so if you dive the enemy backline you'll get obliterated, so you have to hang back and poke until the other team gets low enough that you can dive in and secure kills, and if your teammates can never get them low because they're being outplayed then greymane is ineffective.

Xul doesnt really have that problem, you can pretty much always comtribute as xul

Asked that once in a HL match. All I got was, "I don't follow trends

>>
>>137065432
I disagree, he's my main and I think he's in an okish spot right now though I haven't been playing since the patch.

Sure his trait is shit but he has a pretty good kit to make up for it, the main issue I see with him is that most of his talents are absolutely boring, most of the thing you use are generic tank talents and there's no build diversity at all. At the most there's 3 tiers with the exception of 10 where you have more than 1 real choice and 13 + 16 it's only a select few times where you pick something else than the usual.

Sure baseline Even in Death would rock, perhaps a lvl 20 talent that let's you use ultimates while being dead + resets them for you to use. That would be neat.

>>137066507
His trait is more directed at making him not lose early game to bad because he's supposed to trade when he dies, late game it's useless but there he has massive powerspikes and a good kit to carry.

Problem is all the talents interacting with this trait are fucking shit.

Why don't they just make Kerrigan a warrior?
The vast majority of her talents are about improving her survivability and her ultimates are warrior skills. Maelstrom is burning rage on a 100 second cooldown and Ultralisk is "I can't believe it's not Misha".
Her combo is good if she can ever hit someone with it but then she's totally out of damage for at least 7 seconds. She only hits for like 100 damage and because her combo is so specific you can't even utilize double strike. Her damage isn't terrible, but it's definately not in the same category as Thrall, Illidin, or Li-Ming sustained or burst.
>>
>>137068616
You know people always talk about how the slippery slope is a fallacy and all that, but in the case of SJW, it really isn't. Even the slightest concession to them will make them scream for more. So no, there is no difference.
>>
>>137068937
Her damage is terrible for an assassin, but if she was a tank her damage would be good.

Im literally having a blast, when supported by his own team he's literally unkillable, also 2 sec stun + with dark swarm shaenigans he can even deal decent amounts of damage.
Loving him so far, im just having trouble using his first ult, because mostly it would require decent team coordination and people in WM usually suck balls.

But why
>>
Will drawfag ever finish his bikini sketches?

>>137084110
It's what he needed. They are adding Zealot Charge baseline which will open up other talents and possibly other builds because you are no longer forced to take it at 16. That and he becomes an actual character early in the game.

There balancing it by giving it smaller range.
>>
>>137084110
Artanis was always a bruiser, they are just buffing this aspect with this change, which is awesome, we will have more viable heroes and not the same roster of 16 heroes for every tournament
>>
Implement another diablo support, Blizz! I am not buying Kharazim.
>>
>>137084432
and its fun because they gave him longer range in his last buff.
Not complaining tho, it makes sense.
Even if I LOVE zagara, i hope they nerf her and try to give her more diverse talents.
Right now she's bot an assassin and an insane pusher, she can evade pretty easily thanks to creep, get improved regen AND map awareness. definetely needs to be toned down.

Also, make either nydus worm stronger or maw weaker plz. If they maw starts to shit zergling every tot. seconds it may be interesting because that'd make her a hell of a pusher.

You can't without something like Dehaka burrow or ice block, just hope your healer's around.

Stun him while he's casting or get out of the range before he's done casting. Once he casts it, you can't get away unless you have a move that puts you into an invulnerable state or something like Dehaka's ground thing.

>>137086494
that team is too good to be true.
Every time i picked morales the fucking team ALWAYS go out of range then cries because they get killed, or bitch when i die because they dived like retards and i tried to help them.

You can sub out grounding brew and swift reflexes depending on the enemy comp. In particular, grounding is good against high-burst mages with no interrupts (jaina, Li-ming) and reflexes is good against lots of aa damage.

I'm fairly certain it's impossible for Azmodan to escape anything until 20, if you take Bolt of the Storm, correct?

Not that I'm running out in front of them, obviously, but what the fuck man.

Eh, azmo really sucks in teamfights until you either get to move while beaming or you get the teleport.

Morales is either ridiculously cut or she's a total lard ass.

The difference between Raynor and Tychus out of suit and in suit isn't particularly drastic. They're obviously bigger around the shoulders, with gauntlets and boots, but their frames match up pretty much 1:1.

For comparison's sake, Morales' suit is BIGGER than Raynor's and only slightly smaller than Tychus'.

what are your thoughts on the patch lads? illidan is as annoying as ever however i have not noticed anything super broken about him yet. tychus is a brilliant tankbuster so that might become his niche. i'm not really happy with syl shoehorning all of her wave clear talents into one tier. i used to enjoy taking unstable poison with the x3 black arrow damage to minions. mind control is great though. dehaka is fun i can't speak for how balanced but he is but he feels enjoyable.

Do you guys think Thrall will ever get a rework? He has some of the most boring abilities imaginable. Almost every one of his levels has 1 or 2 generic abilities you can choose.

Also, what makes Thrall a tier 1 character? I rarely see people using him, and I've never personally had too many issues against him (Gold rank)

He doesn't need one, he has a self heal, has high damage, and the only ult worth while has a stun. The only thing you can argue is he only has one ult cause if you take earthquake you are a moron.

When better bruisers became available and when burst damage became more common. The way things used to be was Lightning Breath was top-tier because you couldn't stop it and it induced panic - it was loud and scary and dealt a healthy amount of damage. Nowadays, people have come to realize that "a healthy amount of damage" typically isn't enough to kill you unless you're low, so they more or less ignore it and take advantage of the fact that Diablo won't be moving for several seconds and therefore won't be doing his fucking job for several seconds.

I posted a rundown in a previous thread, the long and short of it is:

> Scrap-o-matic Smelter
You need the mana.
> Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Pretty much because the other talents at 4 are shitty. Take Merc Lord if you're in a situation where Siege Giants are easy to come by and will be in the lane you're in.
> Hyperfocus Coils
Makes spamming lasers much easier and less dangerous.
> Grav-O-Bomb
Once you get this, do not use Xplodium for anything but comboing with Grav. Keep in mind that Grav is affected by cooldowns, so mill turrets if you're not doing in the middle of a fight to get it up again.
> X-Tra Large Bombs
The radius increase is cute, but what you're here for is the range increase - it'll be the same range as Grav, so that'll mean you can stay out of trouble easier. Sprint is also good if you're finding yourself being focused often.
> Goblin Fusion or Kwik Release
Your choice. I take Fusion more often than not for more reliable damage output (that extra damage hits HARD too), but Kwik means you can make nastier combos through an additional stun.
> Miniature Black Hole
Makes combos easier. Raining Scrap is cute, but it's unlikely you'll have need for extra scrap if you mill turrets enough and RRR will cover your ass for anything else you need. Firin' Lazors is useless because, despite this being a laser-heavy build, you really shouldn't have a turret out for more than two seconds while you're charging.

Gazlowe was awesome before if you got a turret ball rolling, now that build is kinda meh, but due to talents you can take best of turrets as well as best of bombs and laser.

With new talents you can get bomb charge CD down to 2.5 seconds...

His rework was less of a rework and more a number adjustment with some talents getting shuffled around. He's better than he was, but none of his core issues have been addressed (like Scrap doing approximately fuck-all nothing for Robo-Goblin, and Robo-Goblin in general). Gazlowe has always been in a precarious "almost good" state, and the update made him reasonably middle of the road - not terrible, but not top tier either. He's at least got the potential to shine more often in the earlier stages of the game, which is something he needed pretty badly.

All in all, it's not that the update was bad, but it definitely wasn't enough.

>>137131660
Turrets suck unless you have enough to ignore people breaking them, something that takes forever to happen and severely limits your mobility. Unless your team is okay with you sitting in a lane and maintaining your precious turret ball, you're better off being able to show up for objectives and teamfights.

This is wrong on so many levels.

Lazer build was always shit because outside of stun and bomb Gazlowe sucks at teamfights.

A turret build will do similar damage in teamfights and also let you snowball.

New patch made pure turret snowball build worse, but lets you mix it bomb or lazer buffs.

You can now take all the good turret talents and also take the best Lazer Talents (coils & extra damage) and make a way better builld than the one you just mentioned.

>>137134369
>Turrets suck unless you have enough to ignore people breaking them, something that takes forever to happen and severely limits your mobility. Unless your team is okay with you sitting in a lane and maintaining your precious turret ball, you're better off being able to show up for objectives and teamfights.
You can still show up for objectives with bomb & charge and do just as much in a teamfight as the lazer build does with 3 turret charges.

You also seem to think Lazer builds are better for contesting objectives than turret?

Have you actually used turrets for anything other than scrap when playing gazz?

If you want teamfight & objectives than charge build blows lazer build to shit and it's certainly not the build you just linked to.

I like how you open every post with a statement that I'm wrong. You should keep going with reporting my percentages, I wanna know when I hit 1000%.

Anyways, laser build WAS shit because Hyperfocus Coils (aka "make this ability not a pain in the ass to use") was in the far away land of Level 16. Now that it's in 7, Laser Goblin is a nasty customer.

> You also seem to think Lazer builds are better for contesting objectives than turret?
Absolutely. Individual turrets are good for being annoying, sure, but the laser has enough range and damage to actually secure kills and diverting attention away from securing the objective in question. Besides, the laser doesn't require you to take the retard ult to make it target properly.

Anyways, yes. I have played turret Gazlowe before, and the long and short of it is that the placement cooldown on turrets and their placement strategy typically makes them not so great against competent players. If you put 'em too close together they're vulnerable to AOE, put 'em too far apart and you're basically begging to get hit with a skillshot. Even before the update, I killed turret Gazlowes all the damn time because they had little mobility and it was always obvious where they were going to be. Playing with them on your team sucks ass, because they're always too busy playing Tower Defense somewhere and either never show up to objectives or show up way too late.

I'm not saying that the turrets are completely useless, but I wouldn't make a fucking build around them. Every single turret-centric Gazlowe I've played with and against has been shitty.

confirmed shitter

You'll have at least 3 turrets up because you've taken Turret Storage and you don't have to give a fuck about targeting because you've taken XL turrets.

And you always space them out, just run behind one or place the next one infront of you if you're worried about skill shots.

Lazer also only does 750~ damage at level 16.

That is shit.

3 Turrets up does 500~ dps and 250 AoE dps, in the time it takes to charge the lazer turrets have done more damage.

And range doesn't matter as you're gonna be that close anyway if you want your grav bomb and charge to actually do anything.

>Every single turret-centric Gazlowe I've played with and against has been shitty.
Well I win most of my games as turret Gazlowe so smd.

Why would you even go a lazer build over new bomb build if you want best teamfight?

Anything to prevent him from benefiting from his abilities and basic attacks, honestly. Polymorph, stun, blind, etc.

Can be rough to have everybody burn their CC before he pops anything, though. And when you lack the coordination to effectively burst him down instantly.

Yes, because focus fire doesn't matter.

>Lazer also only does 750~ damage at level 16.
Yes, at a greater range and in a very large area, typically enough to hit the entire enemy team if there's a teamfight going. And that "750~" is up every three seconds if you're good at turret milling.

>And range doesn't matter as you're gonna be that close anyway if you want your grav bomb and charge to actually do anything.
I'm not a huge fan of going all-in with a fairly squishy character who's not big on personal damage output, but whatever works for you.

>Well I win most of my games as turret Gazlowe so smd.
I'm glad you're proud of winning fights against folks too stupid to walk away from you.

>Why would you even go a lazer build over new bomb build if you want best teamfight?
Probably has something to do with Xplodium being incredibly easy to dodge because it takes a million years to go off and it's more or less designed to be comboed with Grav. Also probably has something to do with Laser being good at poking and AOE, something that turrets lack pretty badly.

>not abusing blades of azzinoth to have 2 ultimates
>>
>>137153047
Thirsting blade lets you solo boss at 7. Your w damage bonus works on everything not just heroes, I think it's a bug.
You can have a sliver of health, go do a merc camp and come out fully healed now as long as you abuse evasion and w.
Also blades of azzinoth is objectively better.
>>
>>137154510
Not that guy, but not a huge fan of Blades of Azzinoth. Probably because of my suck though. I like sticking myself to enemies and then them dying due to my sheer EDGE.

Then again I've yet to take Metamorphosis since rework because when I take it I tend to play 75% dumber as well.
>>
>>137154034
>>137154510
Didn't know about the boss thing.

I disagree guys, most of the time you can't hit all the time the enemy, so going "mage" illidan is solid against teams with a lot of disables.
But sure, if you have a good healer with cleanse saving your ass all the time, go ahead.

hots wouldn't need to be cross-compat because that would just be unfair, but it would bring in new players to the game and twitch streams specifically also Hearthstone would be easily doable on console seeing as MTG is on console and Hearthstone is mobile already

What is it that you're looking for, exactly? Because all of the supports have their own little niche.

Because if you're looking for the support most similar to how I think Tyrande should be played, Rehgar and Kharazim both sound pretty good.

Yes, they most certainly stack.

Most shitters realise when they're wrong.

>Yes, at a greater range and in a very large area, typically enough to hit the entire enemy team if there's a teamfight going. And that "750~" is up every three seconds if you're good at turret milling.
with charge time your still unlikely to get more than 2 lazers off on the enemy in a teamfight

>I'm not a huge fan of going all-in with a fairly squishy character who's not big on personal damage output, but whatever works for you.
so you're not actually using his ulti or stun properly?

I don't understand how you play this hero - why would you pick a Lazer Gazlowe over Kael or Falstad?

your not providing any security with turrets, your not putting yourself in the fray to get multiple heroes with your ulti-stun combo - what do you even contribute to the fucking team?

He's like any non-tank melee, you have to know when its safe to go melee and when you should just stay back and land W on the whole team. Landing clutch palms isn't what makes a good monk, but it is a major part.

I think Monk is very fun, if a little more niche than, say, Morales. I've found he doesn't pair terribly well with ranged, just due to the mechanics of the Hero. Works best with other melee.

If you can never hit rank 8 you probably suck.

I will agree ranks 4-13 are shitfests where you get people who are really good as well as those who throw from being stupid but generally anyone above that is competent enough to play well and not try to 1v5 the team all the time.

Anything above those ranks you have so many shitters on both sides it's easy to rank up since you can still capitalize on the enemy team being bad.
>>
>>137159358

Yeah, exactly. You're only able to do so much on any one Hero, but Morales is just pump out an immense amount of healing, at all stages of the game, and has the potential to save somebody caught out better than a Rehgar/Tyrande, although of course it all depends.

Can sometimes just outright kill people, desu. If only she had some sort of on-use spell shield.

And I think it's mostly because people aren't using her kit properly. You need to make use of the wisp, and the slow from your W to make up for the lack of CC and on-demand mobility, and as such you'll often see Lunaras just getting caught out and blown up

Tychus is weird

You can put down serious damage but it's hard countered by simply walking away. It feels like his attack range is just garbage, like I feel it so much more than any other aa hero. Some games I get 25k dmg others I get 60k, 35k less because they walk away.

I hope Blizzard never makes a hero that makes you feel this god damn powerless, Morales is like a fucking walking TF2 dispenser when I expected Medic.

As Rehgar I feel that about 20-40% of my team's success relied on me but as Morales it's as if winning is entirely reliant on whether the other 4 chucklefucks know how to complete a fucking escort mission where I'm the retard civilian. Worst hero design in the game, effectiveness be damned.

I never said it was broken in a positive way. A passive mechanic that lets you shit on bronzies but does virtually nothing at high level isn't a good mechanic. It's either you can play hide and seek or you can't, and there's no in between or counter play to that game.

broken actually means its too strong that ruins the game mechanics.
Nova doesn't ruin anything but her own winrate.

Also, on the hands of good players you can stilol do shit even in higher level games-just you don't wander face to face on other heroes because THEY CANT SEE MEEEE. You have actually to play it smart and snipe only when you are sure no one's around the corner to gank you.

Right. So you're playing as if... you were a normal ranged assassin? The only difference between a nova standing at max range and Q'ing you and a LiMing standing a max range and Q'ing you is that its much easier to anticipate and dodge the Ming. You either won the hide and seek and saw Nova get in position so you can dodge/engage her or you didn't and get hit with snipe because of it. How is that a good mechanic?

well, no, because you have the actual advantage of not beign seen. Its a different approach because you can backstab squishy heroes a lot easier-instead of playing on the back lines of your team you are mostly playing on their backline.
Nova's an interesting concept but difficult to be balanced in a game like hots were split pushing is a rarity and almost non-existant late game.

I don't think her stealth is broken or anything, it is just such a chore to play against.
Yes you can see her, but I really don't like playing with locked camera just to see her coming every fucking time.
Nova players also the biggest fags in the entire game.

It's me trying and trying to get him to work.

Why do Li Mings pick CALAMITY.

IT'S SO BAD.

Can't deny that.
Fucking russians everywhere, they all love nova for some reason.
And yes, in QM there is no counterpicking...I hate when i choose hammer and enemy team has both zeratul AND nova(and of course my teamates are retards and refuse to babysit me)

is Tassadar any gud?

I want to play him as a lightening / wall spamming dude - is that viable?
>>
>>137184810
Tassadar is amazing.
He usually doesn't excel in any field but does everything decently.
depending on your team's need he can do decent ranged damage, piss off with the wall, shield people and give small heals, push lanes even solo pretty decently and give more map awarness thanks to oracle.
He's a jack-of -all-trades basically.

>>137182525
>Appear, do the 3orhowevermany shot combo, then run away like a bitch, to get stealth back, repeat.
Heh, you just described every nova player in a single sentence.
It's funny how many times I could of died to a nova for being in the wrong place if they would just commit for more than a single snipe+w+aa.

He's easy if you just want to sit back, relax and shit on people.

rely on your MINES, and your minimap. the slow and dmg on the mines is very underrated. they should never be positioned where lane minions will trigger them.

ideally though i think hammer is shit without having something like a melee or support babysitter at all times.

Have 100 games played as aba with a good 60% winrate, Here's how i build my Abathur:

>Log into battle net forums
>Create a thread whining about how Abathur needs buffs to symbiote builds and not shitty meme tier mine build or locust build
>Get called a shitlord
>Alt tab back into HoTS
>Play something other then Abathur because mines and locust are fucking trash tier builds compared to symbiote master race.
>>
>>137189258
i usually go this build
http://www.heroesfire.com/hots/talent-calculator/abathur#rtaI
with variation of survival instincts on 1 and global mines on 4
>put mines on enemy rotation paths/bushes to prevent/slow ganks
>put mines on objectives/bosses/mercs to give vision
>be aware of what happens in all lanes to help in ganks
>dont stay on one hero forever. switch to lane minions to push/soak constantly
>have your body on empty lanes for most effectiveness
>bodysoak non-objective lanes during objective and symbiote push the other non-obj. lane
>clone a (melee) assasin during teamfights/ganks to put pressure on high value target
>be careful when/where you summon the clone so it doesn't die in 2 sec

>Why do Li Mings pick CALAMITY

>>137189258
I don't really main Abathur, but here go some tips
>Don't sit on base the whole game, you'll need to bodysoak lanes when you feel safe, and push with your locusts
>Spam mines all over the goddamn map like you were born only for that
>Help your team with hats, and always "be" in the team fights
>Right now the Ultimate Evolution is the best ult, you shouldn't consider Evolve Monstruosity almost never
And for now i think that's ok

>avoid playing on smaller maps, loses a lot of his value
>mine up common routes to objectives and lanes, helpful for slowing rotations and getting/avoiding pick-offs
>you're able to sit in a bush near dying minions while simultaneously 'soaking' another lane worth of experience by symbioting a minion in it, usually when you're safe to do so, like during objectives
>being able to jump into the fight when needed via ultimate evolution, clone jaina move in and blow somebody up, don't just split-push/soak all game, it's behavior like that which has earned Aba his current reputation
>locust brood at 16, try to drop them where they'll be uncontested (like with a minion wave during an objective, they just shred towers and keeps)

That's how I've gathered to be useful, anyways. There are plenty of other things you can do, between picking Symbiote talents if you have a good target to hat, taking merc camps with locust brood, or earlier with mines/symbiote, etc

I think that he's unfortunately a bit niche, and isn't always a safe pick. You'll probably get flak for picking him blindly in HL

Locust/minefags are literally worse then Gazlowe pickers tbqh familia.

At least as a hat you can save their dumb fucking asses when they do dumb shit and secure kills that they would have let go. but hey, at least as a memefag you can push lanes while the rest of your team gets fucking destoyed because they have to do everything 4v5

>Muh UE
Alright alright, 4.5v5 and only after level 10.

>>137190841
>>137190835
>>137190673
I have a good win rate with aba and NEVER take mine talents(well, just sometimes, depending on the map and team compo).
I either go full symbiote, full locust or something inbetween.
Also, monstruosity is amazing, you just need to know how use it.
I literally won games thanks to that, combined with locusts it allow you to push like crazy-excpecially late game on multiple lanes. You can literally push 3 lanes with aba.
also
>>137191126
this, but its amazing when ya get good teamates. Illidan+symbio feels wrong.
>>
I just found my new favorite meme build.
Kerry with siphoning impact, clean kill and aggressive defense.
Everything else can be filled in with whatever you want.
You can jump on a creep wave and heal up completely while not spending any mana.
Late game you can wipe a wave of creeps and have a full shield ready.
I like zerglings and I can't believe it's not misha, but other choices are better.
>>
>>137191020
desu senpai plat means more in sc2 than on hotslogs. I look at mmr numbers over metal colors and anything under 3k is bad.
>>
>>137192157

I could've sworn that was her most popular build, or is that what a meme build is?

>>137191890

>minefags

If you aren't filling chokepoints with mines irregardless of which build you're using, I don't know what to say.
>>
>>137192157
Welcome to like two months ago, anon. That's been the go-to kerrigan build for forever now. More specifically, the build is siphon > clean kill > battle mom (or regen) > maelstrom > shield > aggressive defense (or bfb) > bolt

It's great fun on infernal shrines.
>>
>>137157778
>with charge time your still unlikely to get more than 2 lazers off on the enemy in a teamfight
Have you even tried the build or the playstyle? Two or three is common.

>so you're not actually using his ulti or stun properly?
If by "properly" you mean "usually get two or more people in the Xplodium + Grav combo", then yes.

>I don't understand how you play this hero - why would you pick a Lazer Gazlowe over Kael or Falstad?
'cause the bomb combo is better than their ults.

>your not providing any security with turrets, your not putting yourself in the fray to get multiple heroes with your ulti-stun combo - what do you even contribute to the fucking team?
Laser damage and Xplodium + Grav combos. They're really not hard to pull off when you have the range to do them. You should give it a try sometime, it's pretty nice - you get all of the kills and none of the deaths.

say what you want about Hots but the level design is amazing.

>my 1hp shield makes a difference when my shitter melee assasin dives 1v3+
>slowing enemy rotation is worthless

>DPS numbers are everything that counts in the meta
never said that mine/locust build is the only viable way to go but why does it trigger you so much? ofc you have to adjust your build depending on map and team comps

>>137192095
monstrosity needs so much babysitting and you miss a lot of xp soaking and when enemy focuses it right after it spawns its pretty much wasted. but i agree, when it works its a lot of fun and you can 1v1 some heroes with it.

Well I never see kerry so I wasn't even aware she had a popular build, and last time I played was jojo patch so I missed a lot.

sand creep would be OP on Sky Temple, it would make it really difficult to detect your tumors
>>
>>137191890
yes, because having mines all over the map that slow as well as being able to play as proper hero during a teamfight (some of which do fine regardless of no talents) is only 0.5 of a hero whereas a shitty hat that is basically just a shitter version of brightwing is a whole hero.

And yes, of course I've tried Laser build, that's how I know it's shit.

You do less damage that turrets and have less utility than bombs, all in exchange for a mediocre long range AOE nuke, which incidentally loses the whole advantage of long-ranged nukes by having a fucking massive charge time.

>>137180520
