everyone thought you were dead in some ditch after a bad date with a serial killer not 2 days ago dude.
I don't know, I don't understand this mm. The more I play the less people with hundreds of lvs know basic things like fighting under the immortal or a keep, racing an immortal when you can easily win it, not splitting to soak at lv20+, not solo camping during an obj, not standing in range of a hammer doing nothing, etc. QM is a mess that keeps getting worse and worse.

Impromptu power rankings of which map makes me
the most when it shows up on the loading screen:
Warhead Junction>>>>>>>Haunted Mines>>>>Garden of Terror>>Blackheart's Bay
If all four were deleted tomorrow I wouldn't shed a single tear. The rest of them are at least tolerable if not outright good in my book.
I'm sad I've played 10 games on live since patch and still haven't hit the new map once. Wish it was a bit more common to start like it seemed some of the others were in the past.

Damm, I feel Ana will fit better as a specialist, maybe if blizzard removes that little delay on her W to land a Q.
And yes, Ana is the Sondious of supports

Well, US' reputation in the international scene took a nose dive recently.

Eh I don't dislike any map right now. Haunted Mines tend to be the most chaotic, everyone doing random things kind.
I personally hate Warhead because of how big it is. It's just an annoying map for me, and it's ugly to boot.
Mines is still cheese-able (though admittedly less so) and I don't enjoy the two separate floors mechanic and it's weird interactions. Garden has been a problem forever for a variety of reasons and it also has that "too big" problem, but it's more in the "too long" category where it's such a struggle to get the terror from one side to the other in shape to use it unless you were already stomping anyway.
BHB is on my list cause there's a very simple method to winning and teams inevitably steer away from that in the mid-to-late game to team fight for no reason and attempt to throw.
I'm really excited for Junk. He was one my most played in OW. Wish his second skin was a bit more inspired, but what can ya do? At least he's in game. Surprised if he doesn't get a Halloween/Hallow's End skin though it may be too close to that for it to happen now. Or maybe they think the Devil skin works for that?

isn't he supposed to have a global?
Mines is dumb because the camps respawn way too fast. They need to change that.
Mines and Garden are dumb because seeing stealth in the phases is near impossible.
Garden is dumb because the terror can run around willy nilly while you constantly rotate and they're probably pushing another lane. Oh, and all vehicles are unstoppable now. GG.

Kind of regret buying Ana.
U2 looks like a global divebomb, yeah.
I forgot about the sapper camps. That may be the single most annoying thing in the entire game, even counting specific annoying heroes. They are just constantly up.
Yessir. Sort of dives further into the Mad Max vibe + the demonic slant.
One of the HOTS wikipedia sites says he's an assassin. I didn't catch that in his announcement, assumed he'd be specialist.

Its a Diablo themed skin.
I think its fantastic, Im much more interested in him now.
Mind you, topless demons with six packs is my fetish so...
Jun is super good, he def needs more viewership. He's playing Ana right now and it's like night and day to what I see, lol.

My team just now was so bad that they couldn't even hit me with their pings after going balls deep and feeding.
Lost boss, lost keep, lost all nukes, 3 level lead, gg.

jun psalm and fury are way too good for cattle and cauthon. Could only carry those 2 so far.
Well he's a support main so that's not surprising.

Artanis is a QM monster. 4-1 so far and we completely threw that match.
You're tanky, mobile, bursty and have displacement and a global blind.
Aba did a hybrid build which helped but only in shielding not directly damage. He also won us the game by splitpushing while making it harder to teamfight.

Eh, I dunno there are other support who can outperfom ana easily like Stukov or Uther

Ana brings a completely different kit than either of them. Ana's ability to set up kills, and enable her carries makes her unique and really powerful in the right hands. I just don't think many people will be able to play her effectively

So did Stukov , making a hero in such important role not being accesible for everyone is a problem

I really don't see it that way. It's ok to have hard heroes and niche heroes. Just like it's ok to have super easy to play heroes.
