^It's kind of weird how gmane has declined in popularity lately.
I mean he's still really freaking good. (Just had a BoE game with 10 kills/1 death with 40% damage to immortal)

I prefer it this way, now he never gets banned and people kind of forget how to deal with him.

Athero is their shot caller but the warhead junction game was the insane one vikings were a nuisance w/o globals, there still hasn't been a competitive game on that map where a team reached lvl 20.
oh i only caught the tomb game that just happened now
yeah it's super snowbally, im surprised it keeps getting through bans
dig seem so reluctant to play comps w/ any hard engage lol, I'm guessing they are prtty traumatized w/ bad engages
athero's tracer macro play is great
they need to run sylv if they are gonna roll counter-engage comps all the time

I love the range of drafting Athero added back to their roster. With Alex Dig often put him on the off tank to have jaypl be the maintank but athero's heropool is much wider than Alex' ever was due to being a flex player for the most part.
The problem is they keep drafting comps with no damage (like this one). They are hugely overvaluing Tracer. Also, as much as I like him - Snitch is not good at medivh. He dies way too often, and doesn't feel impactful at all. I have yet to see a game where they wouldn't have been better off putting him on someone else. Plus medivh versus illidan and typhus sucks as the shield doesn't do anything, they aren't a blow up comp!

They were unprepared for Illidan in general. Snitch is pretty good at being supportive with Medivh he often doesn't even go for the damage talents but that's more impactful when ahead than behind when you can dive with the portals.
yeah sylv instead of medivh would have been great, but i think they kind of tunneled in on the gorge/medivh combo in draft, only explanation i can think of for the last pick medivh even tho they ended up going bile
once misfits double picked tychus/mura, they should have been looking for solutions to deal w/ that specific combo other than yo let's play a stitches cursed hallow game
also don't think they were expecting the illi at all for some reason, even tho it's one of his best maps
oh shit never knew tychus could stop tributes through walls w/ the range talent, that's good to know

Zarya with 2nd shield at 13 and shield rewind at 20 feels similar to piano uther with all the shit going on.
If you got give me twenty at 4 even more so since you have so many skills to juggle.
Sadly energy build is just better but nade talent at 7 complements it very well.
1 Energy
4 Give me twenty (quest reduced CD and increased value on E)
7 Particle Grenade (center increased damage)
10 Expulsion Zone
13 Energy Consumption Shield
16 Gain Train (two allies shielded)
20 Rewind
Best Hero released since Chromie can't stop gushing.

After using Expulsion Zone a bunch...gotta say I actually find it pretty lackluster. Really they both are, to be honest. Expulsion Zone mainly because of the delay on it's cast. Causes it to land in awkward places a lot. I've missed a good bit and seen other Zarya's missing em as well. If it hits it's good...but same with Gravitron. The only difference with Expulsion Zone is that it doesn't require follow-up from your team to make it good.
I feel like Expulsion should be a little bigger, to be honest. It's not a very big circle in comparison to it's Gravitron counterpart, IIRC.

Zarya worst designed hero in game confirmed.

Sure you miss a great deal but the CD is low enough it doesn't end up mattering too much. Especially with it being much easier to hit than Graviton Surge and it being able to lockdown targets better in many cases, against structures / environment.

If you can land it right it's great.
I've found Gravitron much easier to land, though. Expulsion always feels like it needs Nazeebo's range talent to make it effective. If I could shoot it just a little farther and faster, it'd be amazing. As it is I only seem to get it where I want it when I'm the one retreating, not them, cause Zarya has no mobility.

Don't think I've managed to ever land a satisfying graviton surge, imo it's much harder to land and at double the CD no less.
Expulsion Zone allows me to peel for the team and secure kills more consistently. Graviton might give you a game winning fight but it might as well do shit nothing.

dunno if true but the bosses apparently do less siege damage in the presence of players. It apparently has an extra rotation or something.
It was something a caster said so take with a grain of salt.
Good solo laners seem to do well, though I've only played it a handful of times. Since it's so big and there's often a lot of nukes popping up, there aren't a ton of huge team fights. Someone that can hold their own and pressure the opposing lane, been having good success with Rexxar. Love zoning/scouting with Misha while he's picking up a nuke, and just bullying my way to their gates.

I'd like to say hard work and practice, but really I was just born amazing. Also I play mostly OP heroes exclusively, which helps

Pick chen ask for another tank, diablo gets hovered then picks sylvanas anyway because she complements our first pick butcher so well.
Scrub league takes a toll on you. Anytime soon I'll have completed the descend to Bronze.

Same here. Interesting. Probably some interesting hero reveal, like Cho'Gall last year.
I guess what I mean is that they usually unveil 3-4 heroes, at least one of which is quite unique, and then in addition unveil things like new maps and some major new feature set (be it a massive rework of ranked/UI/etc or something like Heroes Brawl).
The Heroes team is simply embarrassing the fuck out of the Warcraft team right now.

What's wrong with the wow team? They just released an expansion and it's gotten nothing but praise.
