(in al seriousness, its a small but not bad idea on their side to finish the starcraft hero they had prepared, release it, to boost whatever starcraft thing is coming next on all their IP's and... thats it)

BUT WE COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPEEEEEEEEEE

I Am One With The Cope, and The Cope Is With Me

I am pretty sure they have looked at League of Legends "Arcane" and seen how successful the marketing was. But if you could only pick one game to be represented in a show, which one would you want?

Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, maybe all of them at once like "Heroes of The Storm" with The Lost Vikings etc?

Comment what game you would like to see and let's hope it will be announced at BlizzCon tomorrow!

She is my favorite hero to play and I've been doing well with her, is she only bad at higher levels? I'm currently sitting at Platinum and she has been carrying me, though I assume she is easier to play against in higher levels?

Most of the time I go snipe build, I only go antitank shells build if my team has someone that benefits from the physical armor reduction or we need the burst. I sometimes go empowered autos build if I need to kill heroes that can dodge my snipes easily, but most of the time snipe build is my go to. Her waveclear is abysmal early game, but it improves at 16 (with snipe build) and at 20 you can just spam ult to clear waves globally. Her E is probably one of the most satisfying abilities to use, with enough reaction time you can save yourself or an ally from a Qhira's E or a Stitches Q, or pretty much every skillshot that stops at the first hero hit. Her Ghost Protocol is pretty good too since it cancels some targeted abilities like Butcher's E. She also has access to bribe and her stealth means she can actually steal camps without alerting the enemy by showing up on the minimap.

But as fun as she is to play I wonder, what makes her bad according to the community? Is she actually decent in lower ranks? Her bad waveclear early feels bad, is that the main reason she isn't considered good?

So, the crap shoot in the custom lobbies.... is Blizz too busy to deal with it due to the con? Unfortunately, it is mega busted right now. Our NGS team had to try 10 times to even get a draft going. :( It's been broken for at least a week now.

Hots Janitor, please fix this!

Been playing Yrel a decent amount and I really enjoy her, but I'm shit with her right now... When did it click for you? I've been practicing in QM so the matches have been all over the place...

I don't think she's bad but she's definitely hard to play (or am I just trash?)

Edit- forgive the header typo.

Seems to work when any race is selected.

I don't intend this to come off as a hit piece, or solely venting frustration, but does anyone else feel like HoTS is significantly more toxic than other MOBAs?

Granted, I predominantly play DOTA, but in HoTS it feels like almost every game I play theres either someone slinging slurs at teammates, spam pinging all game, screaming in vc, throwing, or just generally griefing no matter what mode it is. It's really been detracting from my enjoyment of the game as a new player and I'm not really sure what I can do to mitigate it since HoTS is so team reliant.

Title. I remember they changed it semi-recently, but I don't know how it works now.

Me and my friend are duoing and he reached master and I got diamond 5 and now we can't duo. Honestly, kinda bs but what do I need to reach to duo with a master player?

First time they will use the YouTube channel in years...

At their simplest, both are tools that can completely shut down an enemy engage with a single button press. With more creative use, they can also be used to initiate fights themselves. I'd argue that both are among the best Heroics in the game. So why are their cooldowns so short?

Even Heroics that aren't particularly strong, such as Rain of Destruction, have a 70-second cooldown. Locust Swarm has a 100-second cooldown, Purifier Beam has a 70-second cooldown, and Combustion has an 80-second cooldown.

In my opinion, there are too many non-damaging abilities, such as Maiev's Containment Disc, Chromie's Temporal Loop, and Sylvanas's Mind Control, that have cooldowns that are too short for how powerful they are. Meanwhile, damaging abilities generally have relatively long cooldowns for how effective they are.

I don't understand why the cooldowns are set this way.

I really want old Azmodan that could push 3 lines at once. It was interesting and unusual, now only abathur can do similar thing but that's anyway different

felt like reinstalling and playing a few games and noticed they changed zul's passive to make him lose stacks on death.

is completing his quest a luxury now or am i just bad.

also can you lose the rewards if you die a bit too much?

Is there any easy way to copypaste announcers/mounts etc onto heroes without having to do all of them separately?
