For those who haven't heard them yet, here is the new Diablo skins voice lines. Some really good ones in there.

Really? I was finding her to be very much an auto attacker / brawler, with the shorter range and abilities that want you to get close in. Mages typically by definition want to hang back and throw spells at you from a distance.
Yeah, she's like Tychus, a melee/ranged hybrid character.
She's a bipolar hero in most of the games I've seen on PTR. About 30 total games, 25 or so as her. If she has a front line she can do well, and if they have AA heroes she can do amazing, but the mage tax is rough. She's been middle tier damage dealer on both sides in most games, and then occasionally she'll bust into top of the charts thanks to the matchup.
I've played her a ton and enjoy her, but I have no gauge on how good or bad she'll be thanks to the MM on PTR. Some games you'd swear Blizzard put AI-Adept bots in the game with real names just to make you think there's people playing the players play so bad.

Your last two posts seem contradictory.
I'm going to get like 66 or 67 loot boxes apparently. Dank. I'm really just in it for the emojis.
I haven't played a single second of PTR, so I guess I'll figure out of I like the new hero when she arrives in the Nexus next week. I can already tell I'm going to be annoyed by her AA range being WAY shorter than her ability ranges.
Also, I've rekindled my love for Leoric this patch. The buffs are pretty insignificant but holy shit his W build is some intense damage.

I don't believe in edging, if you're going to get that far just finish the job.

Leveling up now will earn loot boxes for once the update goes live right?

Stealth bragging, you've learned from me so well
They vary from instant to about 300 seconds. Not too awful honestly, considering it's PTR.
Cassia should be live Tuesday (ETC rework too I guess?), but the 2.0 doesn't come out til the 18th or 25th. Not sure which, I've heard both.
Thanks! I'll give it a shot.
You mean so broken cause MM doesn't count him as a tank but you can still go tank at 10 and roll the enemy? Then yes you are correct.
So I worked out the rest of my account's levels and where they will land, and redid the other one since the tabulations were wrong before:
Lots of boxes overall to open which will be awesome. Will probably save an account or two for sometime after the initial rush has died down so I can have fun doing it again without buying any.
The other thing that sticks out is that my main account has nearly 600 levels on my second alt yet only gets 11 more boxes. feelsbadman
- Dolo #1 --- 922 --- 69 boxes
- Dolo #2 --- 575 --- 65 boxes
- Alur --- 370 --- 58 boxes
- Dolo #3 --- 149 --- 26 boxes

The suggestion from Reddit to multiply your next X normal boxes until you catch up (and give you all the rare/epic/hero boxes you should have gotten right off the bat) is pretty fantastic. Encourages you to keep playing while not screwing anyone over.
Well it's mostly because I'll see how so few crates I'll get but at the same see how many crates I'll miss because I leveled a bunch of heroes evenly. If this is what blizzard will give in compensation so be it but I'm just a little bummed about it.
That's a nice suggestion indeed.
This Azmodunk brawl wouldn't be so bad if the playerbase wasn't so dreadfully stupid. 26 min in, both teams are doing thousands of damage per black pooled dunk, and my team mates are dying trying to cap mercs. The idea that the mercs will all just die to a single dunk is lost on them. I finally just sniped the core on my own, gave up on trying to explain anything to them.
I know some disagree, but I am frankly amazed how awful they've done with making these brawls enjoyable. I really figured they'd knock this out of the park. It feels like it should've just been the Arena/pick 3 and that's just the mode. The map rotates, you do "x" number of games a week for gold, and they come up with something else for the rest.
I do want 2.0 out ASAP, but there's definitely bugs all in this build. Stats not showing in profile, animations bugged on certain skins, heroes wearing certain skins not showing up in MVP screen, certain skins being unable to use hotkeyed sprays, etc. I don't think they've updated it even once since it went live, though, right?
