Ana is a hero I never thought I'd enjoy

That was on the new map, only reason the damage numbers were that inflated, IMO.

Can't say if you will or not. She's pretty fun, but def needs another support.

will this event be super long? because Junkrat is in the loading screen and he probably wont come out for another month right?

did a bunch of matches with myself on Kel'Thuzad and my friend on Ana. Nanoboost KT is about as dumb as I thought it'd be, lol. He'd just drop it on me as soon as he saw a glacial spike go down and it usually worked out.

Also if he lands a sleep dart on someone with me around, they are done.

NA games LUL


Johanna still makes me want to uninstall the game, nothing changed. It's probably even worse than before since I can't take block and laws of hope.

3/3 games lost with an Ana, coincidence?

1/1 for games won with an Ana and Jo is pretty good, her holy fire in particular is great combined with movement speed on convection and increased blind and block shit all over valla.
 
I haven't played her much over the last couple months but sustain and waveclear was why she was so boring.

They moved and changed her talents to be more interactive and playmaking.

Hitting that 4 man punish is super satisfying.

That was her thing, that she couldn't die. Now when you're deep in and your team doesn't focus anyone you just die faster and nothing comes out of it.

Ana gets the Rhaknar support seal of aproval, I like her.

Can be very frustrating to play tho since healing with skillshots with people moving all over the place can be nerve wrecking, even if you try to anticipate where they will be as opposed to shoot where they are (not unlike Nova I guess), people have a tendancy to do hard turns for no reason lol.

I think Dunk and Bakery talked about that possibly being a thing on THH last week. It was one of the podcasts, but basically takes her to another level damage wise and makes that quest easy too.

Are you queuing with double support Rhaknar? Cause she's booty tier for QM otherwise it seems.

no, its me on Ana and Milly on Jaina. I think we had double support...err twice in those games? An Auriel in one, and a Stukov in another?

Ah, I guess the MMR does explain some of it. Also that's not bad for ping on EU, mine is way higher but I'm also on the other side of the country.

The self healing handicap is a bummer in QM, plus people moving constantly while crying for heals.

yes I already had several OMG HEAL WTF

like A) stop fucking moving, B) it has a cooldown C) its a skillshot and you motherfuckers love to be in fucking huddles all the time

and yes lack of self heal is a pain. I actually really like her tho, she might be top 3 healer for me, but that might also be honeymoon period.

Stukov and Auriel are top 3 forever unless they destroy them, then theres a couple I kinda enjoy but not really. Ive actually played most of the supports recently. Uther is ok, hes kinda boring tho. Lucio doesnt feel that different with the supposed buffs. Morales changes did nothing for me. I still hate Rehgar and I havent played Malf in awhile. Tyrande and Tassadar are still not healers so im not including them. Did I forget any?

Im talking purely in gameplay for my style, not their actual power as healers btw.

edit: I forgot a few, for good reason I guess. I hate Brightwing, I havent touched Li Li since I came back to the game with 2.0 (shes still my most played hero with 63 games tho lol) and Kharazim never did much for me, I dont really like his style of healing. So yeah, I would say right now Ana takes the number 3 spot for me. Stukov > Auriel > Ana.

Alexstrasza is rumoured to be a support you guys said?

Junky will be a assassin or specialist, and Firebat is looking like warrior, thats it for the leak right?

When I played her on PTR she was very fun but the actual healing part felt a lot weaker than the damage and utility part. She is a great port feeling wise from OW, including the frustrating parts with trying to target specific people. I don't wanna solo queue with her since she has so many weaknesses to make up for so I haven't touched her on live. Maybe she can end up like Kharazim was where if she clicks with you, you can make it work and have a positive winrate but the overall winrate will still be sub 50%.

I'm salty they held that DVa skin for another week.

grenade -> Q is actually a very respectable amount of healing. And ive been taking the consecutive Qs are stronger talent which makes a big difference, I think its better than the grenade heals more with grouped ppl.

I need to try the Q pierces 2 players talent tbh, it might actually be good for group healing.

I am spending more time chasing my allies, miss Ana Q then die.

I guess thats why there is a double support on Qm, due ana not being able to be a solo supp on my opinion

Like everyone for the past month or so, where you been? She's been pubstomping for a while. Annoying as hell.

EDIT: Looks like the owl build nerfs did finally drop her winrate 2 or 3%, but she's still at 51% in QM. She was super good until that.

True, but I don't get what Tyrande had to do with them being awful. Murky and Nova or Murky and Cho'Gall were enough to do that on their own.
