And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
So can anyone in EU purchase stuff with RL money? It still says the store is unavailable for me :/ What the hell...?

The game has finally been released and you know what that means! ;))

Looks totally legit.

I wonder how many people really fall for this shit.

Just played 3 games in a row with Diablo. Ugh, one more till level 5 and I'm never touching that shit again.
Why the strong dislike? I'm genuinely curious, since I'm going to be playing him when I'm done with Jaina, Johanna and Murky.

He's just boring. Does absolutely no damage, isn't all that tanky compared to other tanks and is absolutely dependant on proper team play. Which is something you won't find these days.
 
waifu tier

edit: wtf

The only way to judge tiers for female heroes is by how much care and effort Blizz put into their butt design.

Tier 1 (absurdly comical): Kerrigan, Nova
Tier 2 (visible with effort): Sylvanas, Valla
Tier 3 (tease with mild sweating): Tyrande
Gaz-Low Tier: (can't see it): Jaina, Johanna, Sonya. Sgt. Hammer
We Bought a Zoo Tier: Zagara
Chris Hansen Tier: Lili

Aaaaah, the feeling/frustration of playing a new character. Dying 3 times against trash tier Tychus in 1v1 battles with creep :)

I agree, HOW ? XD

They probably have Kael and Jaina on their side.
These two are so bad together when 3 warrior initiators get on top of them.
Tyrael charge, Muradin leap, ETC charge, ect ect
Kael/Jaina combos are garbage since the warriors have so much HP and stun.
And if the specialist is Slyvannas...lol, silence, GG no RM.

Oh right, I forgot. Now that I'm not playing Anub, I'm going to be #1 priority for Nova and Zeratuls again! FUN!

Makes sense, dbl warrior kinda seems good in general if u can get at all dat b4b too
They need to just take B4B out and see what happens. It's not like the game will suddenly break, and it would give them the data they need to look at teamfights and such.

This may sound odd, but does anyone happen to know of a good mouse that has enough buttons and will allow you to program the few button commands to.

Looking to play this and Diablo while trying to feed/get to sleep my newborn.

I get the sense they are pnot trying to do things like that since it just launched, but i can def see changes (max health ridic) or proliferation/giving it less.

Last patch was pretty low key too

Then again if they are going for 3 week patches it's totally possible to have experimental patches too

How do I change my Battle net name? I tried it in SC2 but that doesn't apply to everything, right?

Tassadar taking up the Support slot in QM with randoms can go very badly. He can't heal, and you essentially end up with no support when most just lane or focus on their damage.
 
Soooo......after taking a break from Witcher 3...decided to finally Boot up some Heroes of the Storm again....

and On the screen, Johanna pops up....and.....wait what...

I think they based her face model on Ashley Martelle....

For reference.. maybe not safe for work? and Safe for work i think

I mean, I'm right right? lmfaoooo

anyways, yea, im expecting this game now to be flooded with the noobs. this should be interesting.

I agree with the bolded... he won't be winning any 2 on 1s or 3 on 1s, but if you give him a good DPS or Support character to run with, hes gonna do well.

I think his problem isn't that hes not tanky, but that he has become predictable... early on, if hes hiding behind his minions near the gate, hes trying to bait you to drop you behind enemy lines. If hes charging you, odds are hes trying to dash stun and grab followed by a body block. He is just very predictable, but he can be very effective with good teammates and team composition.

Hi this is GM kissbaby you want golds we have the golds please visit blizzard.account.cn or we will punish you.

I knew you were the mastermind behind this scam.

So what tier is Johanna?

I'd put her below Muradin and equal to ETC depending on comp so 2nd or 3rd best not counting Anub'arak.

they are now spamming me ingame too :(

FYI for anyone getting this spam...

Leave the General Chat channels. You won't get it anymore after that. They are finding you via Gen Chat.

They are gonna remove Murky.
I swear

The Murkalurkers took your previous insult in stride and assumed you misspoke! Now prepare to get slapped with the salami tuna.

Wow, waited on that Mafurion giveaway and it crashed the site. When the site came back they were all gone.
I tried a few times and the codes seem to be gone before they even appear. I won't be wasting my time with that nonsense anymore.

Havent played her yet, her stun ult looks nice but i dunno if shes any good at peeling. Johanna + malf can bring the wombo tho

She's incredibly annoying and tanky as fuck. Not really sure what else she really does aside from AoE pull, :lol.

In my opinion, her design is to draw attention to her because she is so tanky. Between the first two games i played with her yesterday, I was 60 and 7 (7 deaths mainly because I just didn't quite know what I was doing with her early on) and it is basically because she can be extremely disruptive in team fights. Her Stoneskin prevents stun, glare will blind, the pull draws attention away from others when enemies are in a cluster or trying to escape.

She may not deal a lot of damage, but she can be super annoying if not taken out fast. She has great stall and distraction attacks.

I just calculated how many games I've played, averaged out per day.

25 days played
408 games played

16,32 games played per day

holy shit

His problem is the last patch nerfed him into oblivion.

Taking the average length of all maps from hotslogs and averaging it together (20:05 average time per game) and multiplying that by your 16.32 games we get...

327:21 or 5 hours and 46 minutes of game time per day. holy shit is right lol

You're not quite full time hours yet, Yoshi! Gotta step it up.

Still, pretty amazing. The only other person I know who has put that amount of time into the game is davemo and he only does it in spurts, not consistently. If I had the time I'd gladly do it too.

Gave Johanna a try and had some fun with her. Definitely tanky, if paired up right can be a huge obstacle to get through.

Also clicking on her is funny.

She even tries to make a joke.
