Deckard would be cool as the "weird" hero, to me.
I'm also with Maledict. Way too many melee/bruiser heroes lately, and not enough options ranged wise for my tastes. Would like to see two more ranged who sit nicely in the Valla/Lunara/Tychus stratosphere - ie: not fucking completely broken, but not shite either.

Rock & Roll racing car announcement at blizzcon or bust!!
Deckard Cain having a ridiculously long rollout time just seems right though.
Li ming is hard to talk about since she does exist as the premier burster atm and she's easy to play. I also dont think she's op or unfun to play against but she is top tier (in large part due to low pool for her role).
Still think malf/jaina combo underrated tho
Xul/etc, rexxar, malf, jaina, tyrande in spider tomb would be the worst to play against, fast mid/bot clear rotation and you cant intercept or you die instantly, then they hit 10 and it's even worse

The Vikings are getting lonely under that Blizzard Classic banner.

Huge upgrade, and the lack of Blizzcon verbiage makes it sound like they got their own event for the finals.

Thank you, I have been saying this since I started playing.

Not sure if this is a popular wombo already, but me and the lady accidentally found a great one. I toss Graviton Surge into a big group as Zarya, and then she throws down Apocalypse with Diablo and they have no hope of escaping it. Rest of team nukes from orbit while they're helpless. Z and D work pretty awesome together to boot, since neither likes being a solo warrior and I can give Diablo a shield whenever he charges in.

Ya i actually hadn't thought of this, that is really insane synergy.

HOTS right now reminds me of how DOTA was a total mess before Valve introduced the majors. DOTA circa 2013/2014 had cancerous levels of roster swapping and no monetary stability for tier 2 teams. Even now DOTA actually can't do a regional league system because certain regions are basically completely dead (NA and KR). So in a way the healthy depth of each region in HOTS (sounds like China is having some issues though) is a huge strength that this system should be able to capitalize on.
Hopefully it works out for them.
I'm not really sure if it's more the fault of the competitive setup or the game itself that viewership tanked but I suppose in a year or so we will have a more accurate answer to that question.

I'd pull the Hammer card also. But I was also thinking maybe they could have a character on foot who uses a vehicle as an ult. Maybe their 10 talent they pick one of three vehicles for the ult? Only problem is you lose the flavor of having a R&R Racing character if they aren't using the car frequently, and I don't think there were any standout characters in that game. At least I'm struggling to think of any.

I'll take the wait and see approach. Blizz has overnerfed some heroes before. I'd rather they gradually bring him into line than risk overdoing it.
I mean, he should be. That's his style of character.
I mean, I don't know how the nerfs will land or if more is coming, but one can assume he'll keep getting chopped down til he's in line.
One thing I will say is this, though:
The nerfed health pool is an inadvertently larger nerf to Bladestorm users when it's the Illusion Master users they seem to be after. Now you're punished even more for not taking the macro ult.

Still waiting on QM to give me a competent team so I can actually win while playing Support, I've lost the 50k XP bonus too many times due to the fucking morons the game hands me. Just had a fellow support go 0-8 on Tombs with a downed keep at 10 min. Is it my turn to get the pub star asshole Alarak/Samuro/Chromie/Jaina on my team yet? Not to mention my queue times seems to go up every loss I get in this streak (then again I am playing Kharazim, who is free this week).
Also, I'm glad to see that nerf.

See I've been told this advice before and it rarely works because it just ends up me being even more salty I'm not giving myself the opportunity to recover anyways. And if anything the lengthy queue times are enough as is.
EDIT: Just gave me a double healer Nova only assassin game, me as Muradin. Yup, fuck this game.
Seconded on both. If you've lost 3 in a row, it's time to take a break or play a different mode. If beating your head up against the wall is your thing, you're not gonna last long back in HOTS again.
And if you're in QM, while it's okay to bitch about the comps in game to your team, you can't really expect much or still be salty about it after. They put unranked in for a reason after many, many requests.
EDIT: Deputy Valla and Scarecrow Xul later today I guess? They released an animated video for the skins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7SyfZ2SDxU

The Twitter account said "later today", so shouldn't be long now.

Brawl picks a random/skin color out of the ones you own.
When your looking through heroes on the QM roster screen or whatever they always wear the last skin/color that was worn in a game or selected.
