He was played several times at Blizzcon, he's pretty good. Not a main tank but he's a crazy good ganker and XP soaker.

Currently riding a 7 game win streak on him (in quick match, but still)

Yeah I remember Qruul. I changed my name, was Syfadious back then. Remember playing some Overwatch with you guys too. What's your full info? I still don't do ranked in HotS but plan to start when this solo queue is a thing. And I'd be down for GAF nights.

Ah, that's who you are! I thought you were someone new in thread.

The btag is Qruul#1611.
 
I saw a suggestion I really liked somewhere.. allowing the queue system to give players the option of choosing their desired role a la WoW's system. I'm not sure how it would work if they allow pick switching in draft though. Might kill queue times as well, my queue for GM right now is already like 12 minutes. I genuinely don't mind if they put me with diamond/plat as long as queues aren't that long.

Between shifts at the hospital and doing schoolwork while it was on in the background, not much of this one tbh. I saw the big plays and followed what teams won, but that's about it. And Muradin being too strong.

Dehaka had a good pick rate, especially in NA. The rework should fix him up so we get a solid tank with global.
 
Just played my first Cho'Gall game in like 6 months, and the teams were hilarious...

Ours: Cho'gall, Brightwing, Lili, Nova
Theirs: Dehaka, Valla, Chromie, Uther, Abathur

Dank matchmaking Blizzard.

We did not win.

What is the synergy there? Slows keeping people away from medic?

Yeah, if you're Jaina they can't make it around you to get her because of the slows, but because of her they can't kill you. In a faster/riskier yet still beautiful synergy, medic healing Gul'dan to make up for his mana taps is a great maximization of offensive power.

Edit: Wow Medic + Hammer is so sick esp when you get the stim ult. Goodbye forts.
 
Glaurung not on a team but regularly streaming seems like an upgrade for me personally. I like watching him and Rentaro.

Once you play Alarak a ton you'll realize its worth it, he still does good damage even at 80% extra ability damage. Being able to pull enemies in or push yourself that far is invaluable at a 6 second cooldown. Its so good.

Also if you haven't noticed already, you can alt+cast his Telekinesis ability to push yourself in whatever direction you are currently facing. Pretty nifty.

I typically run the same build too, but usually switch the two heroics. I tend to get more value out of counter-strike so I grab that at 10.
 
With Zul'jin probably being officially revealed in the next couple of weeks, I've started wondering what the heck his kit is going to be like.

Back in Warcraft 2, he was represented as a standard Troll unit and didn't have any special abilities. And his raid encounter in WoW is all over the place. Looks like he starts off with a standard ranged attack, but in each subsequent phase of the fight, he shifts into a different animal - Bear, Eagle, Lynx, and Dragonhawk (I think he's channeling the powers of the Amani Troll gods).

I had assumed he'd be a ranged AA assassin, but now the only thing I am pretty sure of is that he'll be ranged.
 
Whoever said that listening to Kyle say "Samuro" on ITN was maddening wasn't kidding. In this latest episode he says it a bunch, and by the second or third time I was ready to throw my phone.

That was awesome. In retrospect, it would fit with where the game is now. Back then I get why they wanted rid of it. Wish they'd put it back.
 
Yeah id like to see it back, i think it was a bug before and if they could figure out how to recreate it theyd have to take it off selfcast only so it's less opaque for players
 
So I'm guessing there's no alternative rewards for the nexus challenge?

I already own zarya, auriel, ming, greymane and kerrigan. So no gold or anything? Just the mount and the Genji skin.
 
I had a bad jaina game vs butcher tracer in quick match.

feels bad man.

So, I tried Illidan for a few matches, I don't know, he's kinda meh. Maybe I don't like melee that much, I guess I'll see when I try new ones.

Also, which one's the recommended heroic? Metamorphosis is "just" a health buff, while Hunt seems useful to target specific enemies.
 
Meta is standard but hunt is fine
You kind of have to be familiar with the game to play him though since his main thing is messing with enemy cooldowns
 
Re: lack of supports released in the past year

Claudio said:
It is going to be a bit before the next support unfortunately, our apologies. =\

We've learned a lot about how much they do for the game, and we have quite a few on the docket for next year, I swear! This year was lighter than intended due to us converting Medivh from a full Support to a Specialist.

We are also working on the Warrior issue, making tweaks to live Warriors is something we are invested in doing right now (starting with Dehaka, coming later this year).

Thanks for your patience! <3

So another dry spell. And then apparently we might get several in a row? Several supports in a row sounds almost as bad as no supports TBH.

Meta isn't just a health buff, its a long range blink if you're about to die.

As for the ITN Samuro thing, I've called Kyle out on his YouTube channel and tried to explain to him that he's saying it horribly wrong but its been to no avail. He even acknowledged that he was saying it wrong and needed help, and he just kept right on doing it. Its nails on the chalkboard for me, but oh well :D
