I imagine it'll be similar to how it is in SC2 so yeah, unless they've shown otherwise somewhere
Unless you're healing for TS.

The purple and green tint on the Artanis alt reminds me of someone and i cant put my finger on who. I'm sure it's a "homage" just like the Samus tint but I can't remember what and it's driving me nuts.

This, so much this. Screw the meta; HL is so stale if all you do is pick Tier 1 heroes. I've fallen from Rank 1 to Rank 7 in the last week and I don't even care tbh, I'd rather have fun playing heroes and comps that aren't top tier than be bound to caring about MMR or rank.
Good on you

EVA unit 01?
I'm still sad Mecha Tass doesn't have the 3 Deception Seekers as the color tints
Rexxar is still sad you never even said hello.
I said hello. Then at the end of the date I said "it's not you it's me" and gave him a fake number
Where's the Yoshi report on Murky? I haven't slept in weeks....
Dice
Pokémon Parentage Conspiracy Theorist
Yeah, pretty much.
Edit: I haven't tested, but maybe you can Ice Block or Divine Shield through the duration of it? It also doesn't prevent him from being disabled, so you/your team can counter. I know there have been a couple times that Leoric's tomb actually protected me from his teammates so I could 1v1 toast him with my ultimate/abilities combo.
You can cleanse it. Here's a Science of the Storm video on it. Go to 3:07, it starts there.
Lying next to his broken promises and all the desks/keyboards/etc that were also broken.
Eh? Octograb has always been cleansable unless I am misunderstanding what you're saying. That's pretty much why Murky has to target the healer unless the healer is an idiot or the team is split.
No pre cleanse is so nice.... but then uher turns into a ghost. ><
Purifier alt color 1 is Asukas eva
Haha, that could be it maybe. I dunno.
I love the shit out of trolling Murky's and cleansing every target they pick with Octograb. Makes them nigh useless unless they just start pressuring lane. Likewise I've had people do it to me after everyone got Cleanse so I had no choice but to Octo them or have a wasted ult.
That may be it since it reapplies. It definitely used to at any rate.
EDIT: Yeah, it'll remove the initial application, but will only result in being reapplied at 50% less duration unless you are the twitchiest mover/blinker ever and can get out before the reapplication were to tick.

Come one they played one team from europe.
Please don't get arrogant in general. Or do and let me enjoy you getting manhandled by asians. That way I could also finally root for TS again
lol
Seriously Dread was an athlete before HoTS how has he not heard of group stage before. There's nothing weird about it.
poor Zuna

Word.
Sometimes I think I'm too perfect. The game must give me shitty teammates on purpose just to make it fair for the other team
It was the "best" team in Europe, though, whom a lot of people expected to roll the competition. On the one hand I can see why they would they would beat their chests about it due to that hype and the amount of trash talk that went on among fans of both regions, particularly after several of the recent TL showings...
...on the other hand, the arrogance of Zoia is the main reason I hear people say they hate Tempo Storm and want C9 to win, and this pretty much echoes that but instead of the manager saying it and no players, it's like 3 of the players.
That's exactly the same thing that happens to me. Then after I lose and I come post on GAF, dudes tell me it's my fault. Clearly they've never seen my superior mechanical and strategical play that is miles above whatever bracket I'm in.

Yes the best team in europe but there's plenty good teams left they haven't played against nor probably paid much attention to.
The only other team from Europe attending even said they aren't among the best anymore.
It's just the arrogance all around that puts me off, I get Zoia trash talking he's not only the manager he's somewhat their cheerleader. Not to mention that it's somewhat funny with him and doesn't come over as totally serious, or I'm just not taking him serious.
It's also easy to say they would have fared better against MVP and that they aren't scared of asian teams when they haven't even faced them.
Team Liquid and Tempo Storm sit in the same position. Every loss is blown up and over-analyzed, the end is nigh, etc etc. It does look like Liquid currently are in a deeper hole than Tempo Storm so there's more glee there, but I do agree re: your next point.
Tempo and many others thought C9 would fare better against MVP Black than Tempo did. I'd tend to agree based on playstyle. However, to your point, that also stands to reason with other EU teams and their different playstyles compared to TL against C9 or Tempo might result in ____ EU team bodying them in return due to that different playstyle. Some teams just counter other teams naturally.
As for this, I think you are reading into it all as a lot more serious than it is. I pretty much only posted it to goad Milly79 cause he detests Zoia's trolling
they are basically the same person
The two teams are constantly giving each other props, they hang out tons at events if their tweets/pics are to be believed and are always cracking jokes with each other on Twitter. It's just part of the show IMO.
I've gotten nothing but 3 warrior repeatedly the last few times I've played, though I think mine is just bad luck as it happened twice last week, then I didn't play for 4-5 days, then I got it again when I logged back in.
EDIT: If I had my favorite teams succeed at Blizzcon, I'd like to see some form of Team Snake (Oreomannnnnnnnnn), BOB? (Bakery), and C9 (Dunk & Fan) as the top three. Unfortunately doesn't look like Snake can hang with MVP Black on the same level anymore so that is unlikely. There's no one on MVP Black who I get as excited to watch though. BOB? and C9 are possibilities to finish up there I guess.

Agreed.
And I agree with that but both TS and TL got absolutely destroyed, faring better than them doesn't mean it's going to be easy. And yeah TL is not really a representation of Europe even if they're the top team they are their own bubble, though I don't think there is that much of a difference between these two regions, except some odd hero pickings and popularity.
Probably I remember someone saying Blizzard instructed and urged the teams to trash talk each other for the heroes of the dorm coverage.
if his shotcalling were anywhere near his abathur play that'd be devastating.
