Instead of nerfing Anub, why not buff all warriors instead ?

I would be fine with this.

 

[brian!]

Yeah i think that's the best option
The diablo and etc rework came out of nowhere for me, i hope that's not whats going to happen to the top 3 now too haha

 

[Alur]

Same. I'd rather everyone be brought up than a few be knocked down.

 

[Milly79]

I don't think nerfing his damage is the answer. It's all fluff. The beetles are the problem.

 

[HoodWinked]

having a ton of fun with Jaina shes so fun cause you're half a second for dying or big plays.

the burst is so awesome water elemental, cone of cold, blizzard, frost bolt, envenom.

shes actually fairly decent against illidan since illidan's damage mitigation is on basic attacks and jaina's damage is almost exclusively her spells.

I think that was sarcasm based on him regularly playing Anub and saying "Anub is so fucking OP" since he has something like a 70% winrate with him.

Guess so

Also I feel like I just read the devils bible.

 

[brian!]

If they are going to nerf him i think it will def be the beetles that are hit (excepting maybe some talent changes), it's the best spot to mess with numbers

sweet murky info

Tagging this for future reading but thank you for taking the time to write this all out. Hopefully I'll make the gaf murky army proud. o7

 

[Milly79]

Alur, don't out my snark. These guys just don't know.

 

[super-famicom]

Totally want to buy Murky now.

 

[jetsetrez]

Do heroes ever get discounted or price drops in terms of coin value (outside of the initial 15k>10k for newly introduced heroes)? I always have about 10k coins, but always worry the minute I buy a high-cost hero it will get cheaper.

Nope!

You're welcome. I'm sure you will!

Aww yisss.

Yes but typically only one hero per patch or every other patch has this. There aren't any blanket gold discounts for sure.

 

[Haly]

Yes, every few patches or so, most commonly when another hero comes out.

I don't think it'll ever go lower than 2k though, so all the 2ks are safe to buy.

Yes, but they're permanent price drops that only happen alongside major patches.

2Ks/4Ks are always safe buys, and recent heroes are unlikely to go down any time soon.

Only Stitch and Anub have been lowered yet though, right? And it's been way more than 2 patches. So I'd say it's a pretty rare happening as of now.

 

[Haly]

Zag got lowered as well IIRC.

 

[Alur]

Can't remember if Zag went up or down, but yeah it's only been 2 or 3 but they've promised more. No reason to think it won't happen...just the frequency I guess is the question.

EDIT: Actually yeah, Zag had to have went down.

 

[Yoshichan]

8 wins, 2 losses today so far! Yesterday, I ended up winning 8 games in a row.

Since I started playing Tychus, my win rate has been going up by 300%

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

[brian!]

There's a reddit rumor that bw will lose gust of healing

 

[kirblar]

This makes sense. It hugely compensates for whats supposed to be her big weakness as a healer.

edit: CyaSteve confirms that Sprint was gone for Jaina. I really really like both changes.

 

[brian!]

I liked that they made you choose between gust and cleanse, even tho gust was a bit overtuned, but yeah good changes.

Oh i just read a bit of the thread, bugs could account for missing talents in the test build too

 

[Yoshichan]

Sprint removal will break my heart

 

[Dice]

Jaina losing sprint? SO GLAD I passed on her.

 

[Milly79]

Jaina in line with KT!

 

[Kusagari]

Am I the only one who finds almost all the master skins, except Murky obviously, lame?

I guess it saves me from wasting my coins on them.

Probably one of the few, tbh.

 

[jaundicejuice]

Exactly.

Thrall's is awesome and Nova's is alright, but yeah, all the others are poop.

 

[patchday]

oh snap Jaina getting the nerf bat treatment before I even get a chance to try her out.

(well technically I did play one or two matches with her but that ain't much)

 

[Zafir]

Yeah there isn't many I like. Thrall and Tyrael are two I like, and so I'm trying to get them to 10 with the XP boost.

 

[brian!]

i definitely loled when it became apparent that master skins were largely just like yo let me stick some more armor on that

but I'm not into skins in general so

 

[brian!]

@prospective changes
i didnt mean to say that these were set in stone changes, it's just a rumor, though yeah the changes make sense

 

[patchday]

they seem pretty expensive for just being a mere visual change (with exception to voice changes). Alas, I unfortunately think a lot of them look great. Like Sylvannas blood elf skin for example or Jaina's special armor

 

[Milly79]

Anub needs a buff.

 

[Yoshichan]

Totally needs to be 80%+ in order for Blizzard to do anything about it!

 

[Alur]

Was doing my first hero league games on my alt account with dmosher, Milly79 and a few others we met in the queue.

Our last game, I got 491 ranked points:

That is the most I've seen. The other team was higher MMR than us because I was on a fresh account, it gave me a huge skill bonus. Feels good man. Jumped from 47-45 with a 467 point game, then 45-43 with a 491 point game.

Also, the two tank comp of Anub + Muradin (or insert other tank) is super strong in Hero League right now. I'd put it on or near the level of the Sylvanas + Vikings cheese except it works on most any map.

 

[patchday]

Anub needs a buff.

I wish I understood those stats then I'd better understand the post.

 

[brian!]

anub is really really good with another warrior, it makes up for what he lacks in such a big way

 

[jaundicejuice]

I wish I understood those stats then I'd better understand the post.

It's the win rate for Anub. It's absurd.

 

[ryanthelion123]

This game is awesome. Heroes are fun and unique. Only two downsides: pricing and simplicity (which is a plus and a negative).

I love the game right now but it feels as if it needs a something, a new mechanic or feature to add a bit more depth or fun to the game. Im sure they will add more to the game down to road.

So I'm curious what features do you guys want Blizzard to add?

 

[kirblar]

It's the win rate for Anub. It's absurd.

I'm 17-2 with TLV in Hero League.

Bought a 7-day stimpack and won a mount :O

haha

 

[Fixed1979]

Ugh, switched back to Uther after playing Jo for the past week straight...even he seems squishy now lol.

 

[gryvan]

gawd I never knew solo HL can be so infuriating...

like 1 FUCKING guy can ruin an entire team
just 1 FUCKING guy >_>

 

[SargerusBR]

"won" :lol

I didn't knew that you get it upon making a purchase so it's a win to me

 

[Ashodin]

Great games earlier NA GAF! Tyrael really pulled through and helped you all kick ass

 

[Messiek]

I think I'm going insane. My gpu stopped working and I'm a student with not enough money. lol
Why it had to be right on the bonus exp weeks?! :/
