nerfing Kael and Rehgod and leaving Li the same… I mean, I get why they did it, but man… HL is not very fun right now
I played a bit of that Greymane on the free week, and, yeah, I get it. I’d have thought he could use maybe a small heal on switching forms, but I also watched a bunch of Korean Super League this week and they seem to have a lot of success with him so i dun kno
he is probably one of the more team-oriented assassins; no peels, no heals = RIP greymane
man I might have overdone it when I was playing this before I stopped
I downloaded the latest patch and started the game; stared at the hero select and turned it off 
I guess mobas aren’t my thing! hots is the everyperson’s moba and I can’t play it anymore! it’s the same way with hearthstone too why
lunara is so much fun
ronnoc come home~
I adore Lunara. I was trying to figure out why I liked her so much, and I think it’s because she actually plays very similar to Li Li, but with damage instead of heals. I was pretty excited to see that she and Greymane got a lot of play in the NA regionals (and Cho’gall!)
I can’t get a read on how good Xul is because he’s a frontline hero with a (relatively) low health pool and that’s my worst type of character, but boy is he fun to play.
Also, Lunara has one of my favorite voices in the game. As an aside, I’m pretty sure she shares an actor with the bloodstone merchant in Diablo 3, but Blizz left her unaccredited because they didn’t want the actor to get hate mail : (

The most satisfying thing you can do with Li-Ming is dueling other Li-Ming’s in quckmatch :3
As long as I’m talking about non-gameplay character details, Li-Ming riding side-saddle and cross-legged is incredibly endearing to me.
I was thinking I would drop HOTS cold when Overwatch came out, but
It’s like they made a character just for me ;_;

Having played in games with but not owning/having played as Dehaka, I can only say one thing:
Rhegar+Dehaka BFFs 4 lyfe
Dehaka is super cool, <3 you Dehaka.
Having a 2 second stun as part of his base kit is pretty lol
I had a QM last night with Dehaka and Illidan on my team
There were dives and lightning shields everywhere, it was beautiful
I’ve started playing this game recently. I was really big on DOTA 1 and 2 for quite a while, but the hour long match lengths really got to be too much for me. It’s just a drag when you know you’re going to lose, but you still have to wait out the long slog to the end.
Heroes of the Storm definitely fixes that problem. The matches feel like tight, 3 minute pop songs compared to DOTA. I’m really into the pacing of it.
I do miss stuff like last-hitting and buying items though. I totally understand why Blizzard opted for such a radically team-based, simplified version of a MOBA, and I do think it works, but I still sometimes feel kind of like I’m playing with safety scissors.
I’m still really just getting started, so I haven’t fully digested the game yet. I haven’t even tried one of the hard difficulty heroes yet, so that might change how I feel about it. So far it’s very promising though, and I plan on sticking with it!
Oh I can feel the nerfs coming for Dehaka every time I play him. Way too much damage for how tanky he is, it’s nuts.
Also, the bushstalking strom talent is lol dumb on Dragon Shire
pretty hype for the world championship that starts in a few hours. haven’t gotten a chance to play dehaka yet.
notbov and onesecondbefore, let’s play soon
I think I would try games with y’all too! I’m like @OneSecondBefore except I’ve played a lot of League instead of DOTA 2, and not much HotS.
Edit: I’ve also played some DOTA 2.
I’d be up for playing some rounds with you guys! Sounds like a great way to learn the game better.
if we can get a bunch of us into a party I’m down to play! I haven’t played in several months tho
I watched the whole thing. Day One was fun in seeing a bunch of horrible blowouts and some good games, Day Two was super fun to watch and had a lot of good games, and in Day 3 they banned Falsted in every game and it was boring the whoooole time. Probably should have dropped out after Cloud9 got knocked out because they were the last team actually drafting interesting teams.
Lol @ at the Tracer model they hired doing the butt pose
That said!
It’s going to be the beeeest
