Rewards are this, you should do placement matches before tuesday if you've never stepped into it. That will be 20 games you need to play to get placed, then if you want to grind out any other ranks or just see what you get after placements.

If you don't have an interest in activley improving in what you're playing then you simply don't enjoy what you're playing. It doesn't inspire you at all.
So even then your "comfy/fun" faggot defense falls by the wayside. All you're doing is sitting in a chair dying in game because you're a shitter, and in real life because you're not doing something you enjoy with your time.

Less than scum.
This doesn't just go for this game, but all games, I bet none of you faggots are good at anything you play because you all have such a shitter mindset.
You are the people who hold everyone back in a guild.
You are the ones that sit there with a shit eating grin when games get dumbed down for casual markets.
You are the people that pay to win because you have no natural drive.
Why are you even spending your free time doing something that gives you no inspiration? That doesn't make you happy to improve?
They invented inclusiveness in schools because turbofaggots like you people cried when they came last when they put the least amount of effort in.

Keep on defending being a shitter, keep on defending people with the mental attitude in games of URGH YOU TRYHARD M8 when all it takes is enjoying what you're playing and not wanting to be the worst player on your team.
You all need to stop getting so mad because I called out your shitter mentality of being fine being literal dogshit.

>not building locust

>>
>>145282736
Because some Aba players post high damage with a mine build then complain about their team. When the lack of damage during a team fight is whats throwing the game.

Don't you find it hard playing at your rank as Aba when the majority of players at that rank probably don't know how to utilise him?

I'd say duo queue as a combo if you want to raise your rank as Aba or play a hard meta hero until your rank improves and go back to Aba then.

Auras should be from talents, selection of 3 styles at level 7 or something.

But why do you care?

Assumin you're a pro Hero Leaguer and I'm the shittiest of the shitty wood league QMers, even when you decide to play QM to raise some new hero to 5 the likelihood we have to play together is abysmal.

So you have fun constantly "challenging" yourself at HotS and I have fun turning off my brain and watching my hero whacking other heroes or getting whacked. In the end what we do is largely irrelevant to society, to our self-worth, to everything, so what's it to you?

You'll be surprised to hear that people pick Li Li for Jugs in solo queue, even at "high rank" games.

You'll be even more surprised to hear that she can be a strong pick in such situations because it's team of pros that cna outplay her easily but she can be very good against solo shitters and not-so-shitters.

its not a meme. i play thi shit for a year now and i keep playing because for me there are no better games in sight atm, i just picked up hots because im a fan of warcraft characters, but the game itself is absolute shit if you compare it to other mobas.

the only reason why i dont switch over to the superior mobas is because its definitely too late to become a progamer at them. might start playing overwatch, idk. but right now sticking to hots until some interesting game comes out.

blizzard have done a very poor job with the game in nearly all aspects. it is too simplistic, very easy game, but there are still shitload of noobs. theres never good balance, just like in wow, cuz its fucking blizzard. the community is shit (its anti-toxic, so if ur an angry guy like me, u will be pissed OFF!) u cant flame because u will get chat banned.

matchmaking is very bad also.

no reason to start this game. u have to grind gold to enjoy all the chars, STUPID AS fuck. QUICK MATCH SUCKS BALS! RANKED SUCKS BALLS. the characters are boring, they are too fucking simple. there is no complexity in the game what so ever. ITS VERY DUMB STUPID GAME!

* bad MM
* no balance
* shit community of dumb stupid faggots
* a lot of EXTREMELY BAD PLAYERS
* average skill level is SUPER SHIT
* u cant carry idiots here AT ALL, 1 bad fucker AND ITS A LOSS

Are all true. I'm in diamond and I may as well be in silver. You still get total retards on your team. The game seemingly stacks games against you where the enemy gets better team comps (3 supports while we have 0, um....hotstards?!) Where the enemy are coordinated/non-shit and you constantly have at least one dickhead that overextends and feeds 24/7. It happens all the time. No matter who you play. No matter where you are. No matter what you do. You'll lose and it's most likely because of random shits that you should not be queued with. I want to play a team game, not be a day-care worker.

Why is it only MOBA faggots that try to justify the fucking god-awful matchmaking? I don't care if the game has shitters, as long as I rightfully don't get put with them. Put me with equally skilled allies and opponents. Stop giving me all the shitters to carry free wins while they do absolutely nothing and I actually try.

And if you were to get into the top 1% of MMR. Then what? All that stress, effort and time for....nothing. You're being a slave for a game that isn't worth it. I've reached Diamond and it hasn't changed at all.

The game is a huge carrot on a stick and insanity simulator. I'm about done playing 'seriously' in HotS since nearly nobody I queue with ever gives a shit. Why should I strain my mind occasionally for these people that don't ever do the same in return and occasionally abuse others (and/or myself)?

I like games where you plug in and play. Not grind 1000 hours for "eh you might get reasonable matches, eventually. but the match making is fucked all the way up to diamond so what makes you think it'll be good in master?"

Like the other game I play is BFGArmada. Load it up, pick my fleet, shoot shit. Isn't too difficult but requires some planning and sometimes quick thinking/movement. HotS is...grind and help ungreatful retards. Win = feel okay. Lose = feel shit. Sounds like a shit game the more I think about it.

Mate I have some advice for you, the vast majority of people who play video games are absolute shit. Having an MMR that's "better than most" is an entirely meaningless indication.

I'm telling you again, especially at 2.7k-3k MMR (Which I also fluctuate between), you are absolutely nowhere near as good as you think you are and are making huge mistakes that if you focused on correcting would net you more wins in the long run than wringing your hands over the time that one retard grabbed the boss when he shouldn't have.

You will always remember the match where some idiots dived into the throw pit and "cost the match", but you will never remember the dozens of mistakes you personally made in that match that put your team in the position where a bad engage led to you losing.

I can tell right away that your attitude is shit and that the only person keeping you from 3.5k MMR is yourself.

I love this "let pubs shit all over you all the time and you'll be #1!" reddit meme. It's just a sly way to say "stop being toxic, you hurt my feelings ! :<" Oh and your logic for bias is false. You can write down each game and summerise it. Vast majority of losses are because of dumb fucks on your own team. And it's a fact that match making is horrible and you get total feeding shitters on your team. AND it's a fact with all MOBA that one guy can single-handedly throw the entire game.

The whole "s-s-stop being toxic!" is a self-serving trick that blinds others.

lmao, not at all what I said even remotely, but whatever strawman you need to help you cope with the fact that you are incapable of owning up to the fact that you are not nearly as good as you think you are, you gigantic fucking crybaby.

You absolutely need to be an aggressive shotcaller in order to maximize your team's potential to win. Communication is key and pinging is often not enough.

>Vast majority of losses are because of dumb fucks on your own team

So you're incapable of reading huh? You may have lost because Illidan dived 1v5 at the 20 minute mark, but there were a string of mistakes you made throughout the match that put you into a position where the team easily capitalized on the advantage and swung the game. Illidan diving 1v5 was simply the straw that broke the camel's back.

Until you actually own up to the fact that you can do better, you will be forever doomed to your MMR bracket, sorry chum.

No MMR is a baseline and there's probably like a 100 good players that still play the game at the very most.

Even the most "alive" MOBA which is doter still has massive match-making and player issues.

It's basically get a 5-man team or give up, like everybody else. Ever played a serious 5-man? It's a completely different game. As another anon said 1 player can and will lose you the game. No amount of carrying or being nice will change it. I think this is why people don't take these games seriously as far as team games and e-sports go.
>>
>>145307140
I asked myself the same thing, and it's been way more frustrating than rewarding to play Hots for me lately so I don't play as much as I used to. The feels of hopelessness and 'what have i done to deserve this team' are way higher than any other game I've played and there's not much you can do.

Because Xul start out with 5 abilities while everyone else has to start with 4. Then he gets to pick between two great ultimates. Then at 20 he gets another ability in the form of a high-damage skillshot.

Xul isn't powerful just because, it's because Blizzard loaded him down with a huge kit no other hero can even dream of.

Because it is a shooter rather than a MOBA, the ability to quickly distinguish what character you are seeing is more important.

In HOTS, you can't change characters mid game. OW is faster paced as well, so even a few seconds of confusion is more likely to hurt than in HOTS.

Ah, okay, I get what you mean. However, I still think OW's skins are either lame or odd, their themes especially. Nothing seems to match anything. After HotS's fun skins, I'm guess I'm somewhat disappointed in them. You'd think some kind of middle ground could be achieved...

Follow-up, just had another game with the same insta-locking Cho'gall pair who picked him after the opposing team drafted Tychus.

We lost, of course.

:3 Kill me.

I didn't think QM could get more painful. As in, the game can be more painful than just playing QM.
