It was down for me too. I hit up the old scan & repair then it worked. Either by letting time flow or it fixed something.

my first thought was gazlowe is the Hanzo of this game but you guys are convincing me that it's chromie. I have always felt gazlowe is a noob trap.
Also I'll try and be on tonight if anyone wants to group up

I like silver city but Rag is such BS on that brawl lol.

Ya he's really oppressive in ARAMs for sure. He's kind of just oppressive to play against in general.
Finally got around to reading the most recent Reddit Q&A, sounds like "a couple" of warriors are coming sooner rather than later? I'm excited.

Yea but Silver City has forts 
Rag isn't that bad in other ARAMs with objectives imo, kill terror, etc.

I think they take another nerf bat to his Q build, and perhaps just his Q ability. Reduce the blast radius on that thing so its more difficult to stack, and so he heals less in team fights. Damage reduction on his Hammer ult too, that shits dumb.
Buff his W and E builds plz Blizz.

I'd like to see an E build be more...something, myself. I use the W build if I face a bunch of range, and have kind of shifted to using the W talent at 4 w/ spell block instead of the regen talent if I face Chromie or Gul'dan.
Completely unrelated, but WTF I didn't realize Necromancer still wasn't in Diablo 3. I thought they had put him in post Blizzcon, but he's still in dev apparently? I feel cheated. I just installed this whole game to play him and he's not there, lol, jebaited.

Some of it is just fucking bullshit. Went up against Kharazim, Abathur and Morales recently with Tyrande as our only support. That shit is just not fun to play against. Speaking of not fun to play against, double support with Tass and a hyper carry like Valla just seems kind of broken. I really dislike the role of Tass in the game right now.
That shouldn't happen. Sustains don't equal support, so something went wrong there.

So for Ranked Solo -
Everyone either bans or picks Malf/Lucio before I can pick them.
What other heal supports are viable?
Or do I just go VALLA nonstop? no hanzo

Rehgar and BW are both viable supports. Auriel viable with guldan, valla and lunara
Medic on Braxis holdout.

Oh I forgot monk. Isn't he the most aggressive solo support right now? Haven't played him in ages.
Usually happens when group of people stack up.
Top tier supports this season right now are Malf, Lucio, Rehgar and Tass. If they are banned you can go Monk or Auriel depending on the comp. BW and Morales are ok but situational. If you want people to tilt at the draft screen pick Uther or Lili (seriously don't they are not worth the extra effort to make them work). If you really want to enable a known good Valla or Tracer you can sidestep a little bit and go Zarya.
They really have should. I really question Blizzard's upper management recently with the recent rebranding and forced Facebook integration.

Fuck Rehgar. Can't play him effectively. And didn't pique my interest enough to try to get better with him.
Who's the Ana of HotS? I'm a good Ana.

I just had one of the greatest QM games in terms of cooperation and teamwork. It was literally a thing of beauty.
Our team: Varian, Lunara, Arthas (me), Illidan and Sondius
Them: Azmodan, Murky, Muradin, Gul'dan and Rag
Our comp was toxic as fuck with all the slows and rooting going on. Our Illidan was great, zero deaths, never overcommitted. Actually hung back a ton to use Hunt on low people, was a sight to see.
Their Azmo was named Umadibet (run into him often), silenced as well. We were playing on Tomb and he would feed to get our wells down with the E build and within the first 5 minutes he had them all down. I think the E talent that increases his range and speed needs a little nerf. You can't escape most of the time.
Also, I really do think Arthas is going to get nerfed. While I think his damage is okay, he contributes way too much survivability once he hits 10 and utility with the slows/roots.

Like a really long time ago in beta was when i checked, i dunno if he still does. There was actually a pretty decent amount of streamers then that have dissapeared like nickhots and stuff that id run into often, plus pros, this was back when qm was the only mode. After hl came out i saw the umad pretty rarely (thankfully). But yeah id havr games w/ ppl that would talk shit about him even when he wasn't present, like dude is a known asshole he really leaves an impression lol
He's also fairly bad at the game too, like sometimes he could pop off as zeratul but he played a very scavengy zera

I decided to play 1 this morning and won easily. They let us get Tassadar, Malf, and Arthas. It was over quickly.
Arthas is so broken lmao. You can't kill the guy.
KendricSwissh just said he knows what the big announcement is from Blizz (he traveled to Paris to meet w/ Blizz about it), and that its "one of the biggest and best changes to the game" and that hes super excited for it. So we got some BIG news coming in hot boys

cool, do you have any links to good sources to read up on, regarding the rumors of progression changes?
IDK man literally doesn't matter what we draft or how good I or my teammates do... just cannot buy a win
a) we know they're happening
b) "Loot" tab appeared in one of the slides at Blizzcon or after Blizzcon, so its pretty major
c) They want player levels/rewards to be uncapped, like OW
Given the "loot" tab, it's likely the reason for the sparse # of skins post-Blizzcon.
