Do you like Dungeons and Dragons? What if I told you I made an entire Heroes-themed supplement for 5th Edition?

Sudden realization: Leorics W dont do what it should...

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 04:23 AM PDT

His "W" is "Drain Hope". When I hit Auriel with it, it drains her life but her stored hope is not affected. Not only that, but targets under "Drain Hope" still generate Hope for Auriel.
Literally unplayable
Undead riot starts now!

EDIT: And his Undead Form "Drain Essence" dont affect Dehaka. Such a cruel world to be a dead monarch

Greymane Needs more skins.

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 11:32 AM PDT

I know this has been talked to death but we need more skins for the great king of Gilneas. Sure he has a lot of Ringmaster skins but they are not cool looking at all! There has been some really cool skin ideas for him but nothing has ever been done about it. His master skin is the only really "cool" skin. All the rest are just jokes. Please Blizzard make more badasss skins for Greymane. Thank you.

HGC Open Series NA Tournament Issues

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 07:00 PM PDT

Currently the HGC Open series is being played between teams from all over North America vying to be promoted into the HGC. It was announced at 9:57 PDT am the day of the tournament 7/10/17 that it would be played on the Tournament Realm which is an 8 gigabyte download.

This is a problem for numerous reasons.
1. 9:57 am PDT is in the middle of the workday for all timezones in North America, meaning that anyone playing in this tournament will know this information and be able to begin the download when the get off for the day.
(For example, if you live in the PDT timezone you have anywhere between 15 minutes and an hour to complete the download depending on the ride home.)
2. The tournament realm is on the same patch as live until tomorrow, 7/11/2017 when Stukov goes live.
3. There is currently only one admin in the discord server attempting to help people with the issue, and even he is only able to help by saying "There is nothing I can do, these are the rules." and "Be patient."
4. This issue has caused not one, but TWO teams to forfeit the tournament with all 5 players from the team ready and willing to play a match of Heroes of the Storm.

Evidence 1: http://imgur.com/a/HpVUZ Admin explaining his side.

Evidence 2: http://imgur.com/a/1vqje The same conversation continued.

Evidence 3: http://imgur.com/a/wLhG4 The disaster in the discord server.

Would love any information from any responsible parties. This just seems absurd to me as a player.

Am I the only person that misses buying a skin directly?

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 12:21 PM PDT

I want a skin for a hero. I used to be able to rub my credit card on the screen and I'd unlock it.

Now I need shards. WTF has happened to this game? I've taken a break, come back and now want to unlock a skin and I can't do that? I literally want to give Blizzard money but I cannot?

There is no way I will buy chests to build up shards or "gamble" for the skin I want.

Finally, a site with sortable hero stats - HOTSnerd

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 06:07 AM PDT

Hey HOTS community,

I got tired of reading the "Where's the site for sortable hero stats?" post every week, so I built it! Check out www.hotsnerd.com.

It's a sortable table for hero base stats, scalable by level. Also can filter by role.

Finally, there's a quick, easy reference for questions like: "Which hero has top DPS in the game?", or "Which support has least HP?", or "Which hero has higher than base move speed?"

Obviously, it's not ideal without talents or traits, but it's still directionally helpful. If this generates enough interest, then it would be great to transform this into a full-out analytical tool, with talents, traits, and other assumptions included.

Let me know any comments, thoughts, or feedback. Thanks, and happy feeding!

Undocumented Gazlowe change?

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 04:50 PM PDT

The level 13 talent "EZ-PZ Dimensional Ripper (W)" no longer disables structures but I can't find this change in any patch notes. Was this undocumented or am I just not finding the right patch notes?

Blizzard, we need a daily indicating we've got our Suns out Guns out ticket in for the day.

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 09:28 AM PDT

Would be really helpful to know when exactly you've got a ticket in, and when you don't.

Just incase its timed by the last time you won, or when dailies reset, because that wasn't clarified in the post for the event.

Regrowth's base heal over time is 420 health. Malfurion is a tree. Coincidence? I think not.

Sylvanas level 1 talents are pretty weak/boring.

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 06:39 AM PDT

I say we add in some quest talents, like one for her q to earn more charges. Also, I feel like possession can only work as a lvl 1 talent itself, with how it is now. There is no way it will ever compete with barbed shot (best talent in the tier) followed by another decent option like unstable poison.

Just a shower thought, but what if possession was like a lvl 20 talent that could turn enemies against their own teammate for a few seconds? It would be similar to mind control yes, but not the same.

And I guess I have to say this now, She is in a good spot winrate wise. I'm not saying she is in need of a rework, just a few talent tweaks. (but having a good winrate won't stop Blizz from reworking someone, like they did zag) Her lvl 1 talents are almost useless. srsly, you can only get use from them at certain times like a small pushing phase.

The SC Universe needs some love, portrait-wise.

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 02:14 PM PDT

We have some amazing portraits (especially stylized ones) representing all the other Blizzard universes, but the SC Universe is highly underrepresented. I get that OW has few portraits because it's a relatively new addition, and there are only a few Heroes from OW at the moment, but we have plenty of SC Heroes, some of which had been here from the beginning. Could we at least have a few Artanis and Alarak portraits?

Hitboxes in HotS, and how Kael'thas needs a change.

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 12:52 AM PDT

Hey reddit. Today I make the case that hitboxes should be looked at in HotS, and Kael'thas is in need of a change.

So hitboxes are pretty important right? Importantly they determine how easy a hero is to hit with skillshots, but they also effect collisions with structures, terrain, and heroes through 'body-blocks'. I've noticed most heroes 'hitboxes are centered around the heroes feet, but for Kael his cape seemed to be the reference point. I play alot of Kael'thas, so naturally I started to wonder why Kael's hitbox seemed over-sized for a ranged dps, and some tanks. So I loaded up try-mode, and started too compare Kael with all other heroes. Here's the results...

Only 6.... Heroes have bigger hitboxes than Kael'thas.

Anub'arak, Azmodan, Diablo, D'VA (Mech), Cho'Gall and Hammer.

Now these heroes are larger then Kael in model, but only ~10% larger in hitbox size!

I found 5 heroes that had the same hitbox as Kael...

Dehaka, Ragnaros, Misha, Stitches, and Zagara.

So that means all the remaining heroes in the roster have smaller hitboxes than Kael'thas! Tanks like Arthas, Varian, Artanis, Leoric, and Tyreal all have ~25-50% smaller hitboxes, which makes no sense to me. While the likes of Illidan, Li-ming, Nova, Tracer, and Valla have hitboxes ~ one quarter the size! Now I know their models are smaller, but come on...there's no way Kael'thas should considered Dehaka/Stitches size, while Illidan is considered the same size as murky?

I feel Kael'thas should have his hitbox reduced by say 25%, so he's ~the same as Gul'dan, but what do you think?

Note* If someone from blizz could weigh-in that would be awesome!

Edit - I didn't just notice this today, as some have said, but rather finally decided to check it out.

I also understand hitboxes are designed on purpose, and I get Kael'thas should have the ~biggest hitbox of ranged assassins, but I still think he needs a reduction based model size. I'm not asking for him to have the same hitbox as Li-ming/Illidan, Valla, etc , but to fall more inline with other similar heroes (Gul'dan for example). Not be in a different league altogether.

I did forget Cho'Gall. He's now been added :)

[Suggestion] A brawl where you repick your hero when you die.

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 02:14 AM PDT

Would be interesting to see a brawl like this (well, at least more interesting that bloodlust). Maybee you would get a random hero instead of picking one. I guess aram brawls would benefit the most from this feature. What do you think?

Former Overwatch Addict, Turned HOtS Addict

Posted: 10 Jul 2017 08:31 PM PDT

I am in the 300s on level in overwatch. I decided to play HOtS for the Nexus Challenge 2.0 and was pretty hyped to get 20 heroes... Month or so later, I'm level 121 in Heroes of the Storm and play regularly in Hero League, where I'm silver rank (I suck, I know). I really enjoy the format of HOtS over games like DOTA or LoL because, as an avid WoW player as well, I'm able to play as some of my favorite characters in a style of game that I've come to love in the MOBA. I'm absolutely rubbish at playing FPS games like Overwatch, but the more strategy-based Heroes of the Storm fits my style perfectly. Long story short, I haven't touched Overwatch in months... HOtS is great.
