Had my eye on one of those plush Probes for a while now, thanks for the heads up.
I figured it out. The guy who made the calculator thought the game doesnt count lvl 1, but that's not true. The game just doesn't count lvl 1 heroes. So a lvl 1 hero is worth 0, but a lvl 2 hero is still worth 2. Because the author didn't understand, he solved for this buy subtracting 64 (1 level for every hero), but what he should have done is just not counted lvl 1 heroes. So to get the true number you must take the total the calculator gives you, add 64, and then subtract the number of heroes you have at lvl 1. I suspect the reason it's like this is because heroes you've never played are still lvl 1 and blizzard doesn't want you to have a count levels for heroes you've never played before.
Cant you get repeats? Heroes are legendary drops + the possibility of repeat drops could fuk your chances pretty hard. Then again on ptr i had 21 boxes and xul dropped for me
Yea you can get repeats, but 63 boxes. And you can reroll.
Yeah by the end of my first AI practice game, I was starting to see how zoning might play out and how to strategically manage the two-pylon limit. Can't wait until I'm confident enough to troll people in QM; I cornered a Tyrael bot with 12 coins on blackheart's at the turn in and pylon cannoned + W/Q comboed him to death, then used the Z to dance around the archangel's wrath picking up his coins. If I can pull a play like that against a human player I will just laugh forever.
Guess I need to post this again since there are some people who seem to have already forgotten after 2 page. Wow, how the mind slips!
"Allegedly"
Opening admitting to sexually assaulting someone(then banning anyone who called him out for it)
Posting revenge porn with their real full names then another admin(a now jailed pedophile) printed the photos and jacked off over them and sent it to the boyfriend.
You're right, how can we even know if he's guilty or not? HMMMM
Also:
Because his healing is enough in certain comps, and the extra damage and finishing power he brings can be more useful.
Never seen this happen xD
Thanks for this. Snagged a heroes jacket, 3 funkos and the probe plush for under $50.
Could be if you are really good at the game. Us plebs need that sustain.
Jennifer hale nailed it as always. So good yet so sad.

When do you go full spider build instead of range on nazeebro? I usually go range build unless it's a two lane map like braxxis or mines where it's harder to get stacks.

I'm getting some weird issues where the game freezes for like a quarter or a half of a second suddenly.
I can't figure it out, I've been trying to google what the cause can be and I'm stumped. It happens in bot matches and regular matches. Other than those freezes, the game runs beautifully. I have a 760 GTX and a i5 4670 with 16 GB RAM, W10.
I'm also on the Europe server if that makes a difference.

It's superior in every way, the dmg outshines the heal by far in that it stacks up like crazy if they let you hit them. Conversely, heal khara is like a flea, the heal really is not worth it. 6 hits w/ iron fist vs. 6 hits w/ heal fist is completely in iron fist's favor
Imo even before he got changed up and iron fist became standard, iron fist was still the better pick like 70% of the time

Gonna need some pics of you rocking that Heroes jacket, preferably in a public setting.
I always go iron fists. The problem with his other talents is you don't get that movement speed, which he needs to be effective. That should be added to all 3 talent choices.

So I heard it's a bit easier for f2p players now? Is this true?
Yes, since heroes AND store credit (gems) drop in the loot boxes now.
sometimes the game hitches due to latency iirc, you can bring up a menu during a game to see if you are having any kind of issue like that. I believe it is ctrl+alt+f.
I really struggle with this choice. Every game!
I feel the spider healing talent at 4 is pretty bad, tbh. Even when watching pros play it, unless you are regulary getting 5 spiders off on a hero, you aren't going to get much value from it - whereas the minion killing talent turns you into one of the games best laners.
Similarly, the spider talents at 1 and 7 both have their place - but then so does the range and dead rush. I haven't yet figured out which I should be picking when. Both builds seem really strong. Feels like you should be full spiders on Battlefield / Towers / Braxis / Warhead Junction, and the range / dead rush build on the other maps maybe?

Cool, I'll give the game another shot. I didn't stop playing specifically because of the pricing/f2p model but it didn't keep me going either.

Yeah, I have it activated and noticed that the ping spiked whenever those freezes happened.
Also just got disconnected for like 10 seconds while playing a bot match, even though my internet was working just fine. This is the only game that I've had such an issue with.
Is this a common thing on the Europe servers?
I used to get this problem a lot several months ago when the only server I could connect to was somewhere in the midwest rather than the east coast where where I live (USA). There are probably other servers available that would work just fine, but the one you get connected to is just too far away or something like that. Not sure if they fixed this kind of thing or not, but I certainly don't lag like that very often anymore when I play.
Monitor which server you are playing on in games and see if they all cause lag or just a certain one.

Well, I went into the options menu and on the Preferred Game server, it's locked to Best match. Says that "There is only one game server for your current connection" 
I'm from Pakistan and the routing favours the Europe servers more than the SEA servers but I guess that's still not good enough.
It's just weird that it happens so randomly.

im not into the minion heal talent for naz personally but it seems to work for ppl so more power to them
try putting in -dx9 in the command line for heroes in the blizz launcher

i think the minion heal talent is pretty good. it's like both of xul's sustain talents rolled into 1. great on maps where you're around minions alot. synergizes with the spider CD talent later on. And then if you're not on a minion heavy map the other voodoo talent at that level is also really good.
You could send in a CS ticket. Blizzard CS is pretty helpful.Well, I went into the options menu and on the Preferred Game server, it's locked to Best match. Says that "There is only one game server for your current connection"

this is a stupid ass video, but if you're a fan of mcintyre you might find it funny. I laughed a lot while drinking coffee.
like he's doing a good job of towing the line between between being "excited" and being EXCITED.

like if you enjoyed the line about how mount/hero fashion was the key to winning in that latest video then this is for you.
edit: but it's also purely in the realm of McIntyre reacts to __________ so I don't blame you if you cant watch it.
edit: here's a sneak peak: "Oh shit! Whaaaat? A lot of lili players are gonna be hyped for that....... not me though... cus I play good characters."

I also struggle with that choice every game. I feel like I'll get more value in compact maps from the spider build because I don't have to put much effort into clearing the waves by myself whereas in larger maps where ganks are few and far between I prefer the more sustain and safer build. It lets me dump all my abilities in a lane, get back all the mana spent, rotate to another lane and start the cycle anew. I never have to go back to base or even take a sippy cup most of the time unless i get pressured in a lane.
I never go the full spider build. The talent that restores your trait at 4 is too good IMO. As for the level 1, probably 96.3% of the time I go the range. Just too useful, and doubly so if you're going Dead Rush which is another talent I always take.
ROFL. I was gonna BM him about this as well as soon as I saw his post. I did BM him a bit in a text
Looks like the post-Genji hero is female: https://www.reddit.com/r/heroesofthestorm/comments/62twxh/found_the_gender_of_the_2_upcoming_heroes/
Wow, your high level heroes actually put you ahead of me. I'm 624 on live and you're 610, but you have those two level 15 heroes and one level 20 that really add a lot.
I don't have to guess who's level 20 do I.
