Public service announcement: Valeera was finally picked in a pro game and stomped the enemy team

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 12:50 PM PDT

Spoiler alert: with Abathur though, not 100% alone.

No more spoilers in this post.

I was pleasantly surprised by the pick and it suddenly made midseason brawl interesting.

I prefer the 1K gold reward for brawls over the chest

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 12:07 AM PDT

Gold prices for heroes are too high. There used to be more regular gold price reductions prior to 2.0, but now it feels like most heroes are 10K.

The 1K gold brawl reward, hero prices aside, is a much better reward than a single chest imo. And if post-2.0 hero gold prices are going to remain at 10K indefinitely, I think the brawl reward should be 1K gold.

Heroes of the Storm: WP and Funny Moments #164

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 10:25 AM PDT

Can't use last year's HGC emotes in Twitch chat

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 03:36 PM PDT

I tried using the HGC team emotes that I bought with bits last year to cheer on my favorite teams in chat during the matches today.

However, when I tried to click on my team emotes from last year, it brings up the bits screen and says "Add 99 Bits to reach this channel's minimum Cheer." But, I already bought it last year?! Also, I do have some bits in the bank so it's not like I don't have enough, if that matters.

Whoever designed the bits system messed up with this. When I try to use my emote from last year, it is the same text as this year (e.g. "HGCDIG3"), so it kind of forces you to pay for the emotes this year if you want to use your emotes that you paid for last year...

There should be some kind of formatting of the emotes to prevent this issue from occurring, such as making the standard "HGCDIG1" cheers into "HGCDIG12017" and "HGCDIG12018" so that you can use ones you already have.

Or is this oversight something they did on purpose?

I can use the emotes in other channels, btw. I'm a poor grad school student on a budget so I can't cheer as much as I'd like, and I'm limiting my spending on the teams that I don't have emotes for yet (Go HHE!). I also don't have time to farm bits by by watching ads. Really wish they'd fix this or, if it is on purpose, change it. Now I can't show my support as much as I'd like to, unless I pay for something I already have.

Why does A player you were matched with has left the game or disconnected from the service not put you back in the queue?

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 04:26 AM PDT

Does this happen to anybody else?

Keeps happening when I try to queue into QM as Genji

Is the game telling me not to play him?

How hard is it for Blizzard to implement putting people back in the queue? It's there in all of their other games.

When QM queues are 600+ seconds it bugs me why I have to go to the back of the queue when someone else disconnects.

Will Yrel Make No Healer Comps Even More Common?

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 06:54 PM PDT

In pro play we're already seeing comps featuring no "true" healer but instead settling for a combination of good self-sustain heroes plus a quasi-healer such as Abathur. Could Yrel's healing/support abilities make these kinds of comps even more common? Are healers in danger of becoming obsolete now that most of them lack damage potential?

Apparently Diablo is unstoppable-ish when he uses his Overpower ability (E) at the split seconds when Garrosh is about to throw Diablo away. #sadgarrosh

Edit:Unstoppable to Unstoppable-ish. (He got stunned)

Best Gift to get for HOTS husband for Father’s Day?

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 09:07 PM PDT

My husband plays often. I was looking at a Logitech G502 gaming mouse, but not sure if that's the best gift. What would you recommend to make the game playing experience better, or just a cool HOTS gift you'd like to receive?

Yrel Portrait Fi

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 08:38 PM PDT

https://imgur.com/a/Mv88inn

This might just be me but the current portrait for Yrel just makes her look like an 80 year old grandma. That grin shes going for just kills it for me and it looks bad in my opinion.

Can we just replace it with her Master Portrait art or a decent version of her hero art? I took the liberty of doing some photoshop mock-ups that should look much better.

Anyone else miss the old Elemental Conduit?

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 09:39 AM PDT

So today, I was talking to my friend about Chen then I realized that players who joined the game 2 years ago or less did not know how the existence of Chen's old lvl 20 Storm, Earth, Fire talent.

For information, The old Elemental Conduit allows Chen to:

  • summon Storm whenever you use Flying Kick.
  • summon Earth whenever you use Keg Smash.
  • summon Fire whenever you use Breath of Fire.

The spirits last only 4 seconds and are untargettable. I used to main Chen for a while just for that talent (not because it was good but more because it's just so cool to spawn a spirit with an ability). Then it got nerfed but I still use it for fun (same reason). I kinda hope Blizzard will bring it back one day or at least make a 4th lvl 20 weak talent that does that (just so I have fun with it in QM or AI). Anyway, I just want to remind or notice people about its existence.

Does anyone else think the Hots esports website could be a lot better?

Posted: 09 Jun 2018 08:04 AM PDT

As someone pretty new to HotS it's kind of hard to navigate and find what you wanna find. As someone coming from League of legends, their website for competitive schedules and stuff was wayyyy better and I wish Blizzard could do that too since I like hots a lot.

I can't even filter the MSB by group stage or knockouts... There's just a small row of endless games that I have no idea when they are or what kinda game they are.

Well well maybe I'm alone in this idk but I just think it's kinda crappy. I found the liquidpedia page tho so I think I'll use that since it seems a bit better and easier to follow
