Not sure there is one anymore?
I typically always went mage ZJ, but now it's baked into 150 AAs which kinda sucks that regard. I just tried his Q build into Garrosh and Uther and it tore Garrosh up once, but the game ended at 16 for us anyway.
Also... one rare Halloween chest... I get these...
FUCK. CHROMIE.

First roster change going into 2018- Udall's off GFE, sounds like he wants to try doing production/caster stuff - https://twitter.com/Michael_Udall/status/920453325295882245

I bought 50 loot boxes, and i got every single variant of the new terrible Chromie skin (plus multiple duplicates)
Fuck that.

Yep. I expect aka to be gone any moment now too
Udall is from here in the Valley and he's part of a promotion for an esports event here on the 21st. He apparently "consulted" on it, it's for Smash and other fighting games IIRC. So this doesn't seem super surprising with that context I guess.
It's Fan's team now boiz.
plz

his power spike is level 7 now, which is a big change.

they took his level 16s and put them on lvl 7, while giving you baseline Piercing Bolt (gated behind an easy quest). That late game monster, now can bully in the mid-game and on top of that, will still be able to take Stoneform or dwarf launch.
He gets everything from before plus more. It's really strong. Watch him in competitive just shoot up. I expect a lot of mura at blizzcon
edit: Right on cue. Before, E stun and E range was on same talent tier. Now you get both. Watch the range of this CC chain. Old mura wouldn't have been able to kill Dunk here:

So is Junk OP, UP, or properly P?
Also nice to see some of these "hat" skins for Halloween are cheap. That's a good change for once.
What does Ragnaros gotta do to get new skins?
Yep, you out here too? Think it said Talking Stick Resort yeah. Was shocked, I saw 2 or 3 billboards for it on my way into downtown Phoenix and back out for my son's hockey practice. I don't know anything about those games. Not even sure what else is a common fighting game esport outside of Smash.

That looks so broken

He has one of those models that is pretty obviously going to take more work to do skins for, so its unlikely we'll see him get anything new outside of re-colors. I still think Thunderaan from Silithus (WoW Thunderfury quest) would be a dope skin.

Did somebody say [Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker]?!

Seems like the level 13 mine talent Ripper Air is a 100% pick talent. Totally mega busted. Also Spread Volley at 16 seems like the clear choice.
Spread Volley was fun to use (when I remembered to hit it before accidentally Qing one or two away first). I feel like I gimped my team going Rip Tire instead of the other ult when I used it, though. The damage and 20 reset on it is good but it was so easy for them to kill and it moves like molasses.
I'm really annoyed that this even made it through development, never mind to live. Why are Blizzard not able to recognise the mobility creep issue they have with the game, particularly on Overwatch heroes? What on earth could make them think that giving a long range back line hero an equivalent to Genji's E would be a good thing?
Talent needs flat out removing from the game, permanent. It's faster to move across the map unmounted once you hit 13 with this talent, that's how stupid it is.
McIntyre has some videos on him already. He seems like unreliable damage but decent control/displacement.
It's interesting to me that he's not a specialist (when was the last one?) and he's a ranged assassin who can really effectively solo lane.

Stop trying to make C9 happen it's not gonna happen.
Let's make it happen
This is golden.
Didn't have that many issues, but I played Zera into him and he's got nothing. 🤷🏻*♂️
End the thread now. Give this man his trophy.
I only logged two games on him (mirrored Junks, of course) but his poke seems pretty suspect so far. I haven't had much success with it or seen others against us doing well with it unless it's a siege spot where he has people lined up. In open area teamfights it's as unreliable as his personality, or at least has been so far.
Do agree about the other stuff to some extent though.

Oh, my first match against Junkrat, I am not sure where he was the entire match but his bombs where , jumping, like everywhere. I think I saw him once and he died after using his tire ult for whatever reason.
Tire's like Rav spirit, you're super vulnerable using it.
