| Posted: 06 Sep 2018 05:39 PM PDT Hi! I will like option to set default spray, banner and mount for all my heroes (toggleable option). That will help to easy set up "team colors" before match, no matter which hero you draft later. This will be a small thing, but it will help to promote HotS as team game, where you and your team can easy set same mounts, sprays or banners. It will be nice for amateur tournaments, or TL. That will help to create team identity, "team colors", or any other thing which will make teammates feel more connected. Or just for playing ALL-STAR match with horde vs alliance banners and mounts. Pls make it happen. [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Tyrande rework is just perfect Posted: 06 Sep 2018 04:46 AM PDT They made her solo heal who's actually viable and fun to play. I really enjoy her talents as a lot of them seem good/situational. A lot of stuns? Take this talent at lvl 1. Not lots of stuns but heavy spell damage? Take that talent at lvl 1. Actually, it looks like you have options at every talent tier. Gameplaywise she also seems okay. You no longer spam Owls just to stack that quest. Mana changes are also welcome, since you don't need to B too much early game. Good job, Uncle Blizz! I love new Tyrande. [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Blizzard, please give matchmaking priority to players in cancelled draft... Posted: 06 Sep 2018 08:27 AM PDT Just spent 25min QUEUING only to have somebody quit in draft. Any way Blizzard can give matchmaking priority to folks who already had to wait once so they don't start the whole process over?

| Dear Blizzard as a single dad, can we choose when to have stim packs activate? Posted: 06 Sep 2018 10:12 PM PDT It saddens me when I unbox a stim pack, especially when it's the last game I play before I have to leave my desktop computer and child for the week. I understand turning it on and off is a way to abuse it. But if I could just choose to turn it on for the weekend that I'm able to use it, that'd be great.

| Tyrande, Betrayer's Bride - HotS Skin Posted: 06 Sep 2018 08:33 AM PDT When her true love sold his soul to the Darkness in order to save his people, Tyrande was as ever by his side. In time, Arch Druid Shan'do Illidan would always wonder what might have been had it been he, instead of his brother, to succumb to temptation... --- Hey guys, getting back into sketching on my morning commute after taking a long break. Critiques welcome. While looking over the "altered fate" Illidan/Malfurion skins in HotS, it made me think - If Illidan is now the druid and 'redeemed' one - does that mean that he ends up with Tyrande? Well - If Blizzard has taught us anything, it's that Illidan never gets to be happy! So when alternate Malfurion turns to darkness, Tyrande is obviously right there by his side! Owl replaced by a deathcoil (I know that's more UD than demon, but they are linked, and it's the right color scheme), Lunar flare with green Demonhunter runes. Bow styles after the Warglaives. Ideally, Starfall would be more infernal-looking, but that might confuse with Gul'dan's rain of destruction - so maybe not. Pencil / Watercolor pencils.

| Tyrande finally became a healer, but who will become Tassadar? Posted: 06 Sep 2018 01:42 AM PDT I'm very glad that the dev. team helped determine the Tyrande with the choice of role in the Nexus, now I think she feels very, very good. However, there was another hero - this is Tassadar! One of the most controversial characters in the game, with the role of which is very difficult to determine! In my opinion if the Tyrande is suitable for the role of healer, then Tassadar is more the role of the assassin for example through the archon.

| Why is the Blind/Unstoppable interaction bug allowed to go on for almost a year? Posted: 06 Sep 2018 05:35 PM PDT Some time in October last year at least, Unstoppable no longer blocked and cleansed blinds from heroes, Blizzard said this was unintentional and quietly fixed the bug. Two months afterward it returned, and seems to have stayed since. This has hurt several heroes, but most clearly, it has hurt Butcher by taking away his one tool for self-cleansing blinds. And unless Blizzard has changed their stance on blinds vs Unstoppable, it needs to be fixed to give heroes like Butcher and Illidan at least some peace in their niche playstyles.

| Should Probius get a gameplay update/rework? Posted: 06 Sep 2018 12:28 PM PDT While Probius does well in high-rank games, his performance in anything casual is... well, poor. This huge difference in performance, I feel, isn't for the best, as unless you have Probius down to a science, you'll never get the most out of him. Add on that some of his talents aren't all that special, or that they feel lackluster, and I'd say there's plenty of argument that our brave little Probe could use a rework/update. If nothing else, he needs his gameplay to be more accessible to players, and not require pro levels of skill. He can still be strong in pro, sure, but he needs to not suck in casual. My 2 cents.

| Posted: 06 Sep 2018 07:24 PM PDT I was down to 5 days before I decay and was planning on playing a lot of games to store inactivity time. It jumped straight from 5 to 15 after 1 game. This means that I only have to play once every 15 days to maintain my rank. This seems like it should not be the case. Do you think a master rank player should have to play more to keep their status?

| [Bug] Tyrande level 16 Huntress' Fury does not splash to enemy mercenaries Posted: 06 Sep 2018 08:13 AM PDT This bug was present even before rework when the talent was in level 7. But I didnt mind it since I knew she will be reworked soon. But now that the rework is here and the talent changed to splash to "nearby enemies" it still dont splash to enemy mercenaries. On the other hand using it on neutral mercenaries it works just fine! This is not a chance or conditional bug. It happens 100% of times. I posted about this in the official bug forums here if you want to up-vote or confirm it. maybe it gets fixed with the other bugs she has.

| QM queue times unplayable this patch Posted: 06 Sep 2018 08:46 AM PDT Since the Mephisto patch, the minimum I had to wait was approximately 5 minutes in a group with a healer and a random select, no Mephisto in party. Ive had a 900 second queue at max, but mostly, 5 to 10 mins queues. EDIT: One of the comments saying he never saw Mephistos in both teams, I haven't seen either. I think the mirror avoiding system is kicked in to extreme, with the assassin Mephisto, unlike Yrel or Whitemane which aren't as popular due to their roles.

| Posted: 06 Sep 2018 08:20 PM PDT Though the Dark Templar endured heavy losses when Shakuras was found by the Zerg, the Nerazim made certain to account for each of their losses. Chief among them was the renowned Dark Templar Valeera, who's skill at infiltrating and eliminating high value Zerg targets remains unmatched. --- Universe Crossover skins are always interesting, and I've seen Dark Templar Valeera requested several times, as it matches so well. One thing I hadn't noticed was how well Valeera's design and motifs already fit the Dark Templar image. The armor style and gems fit very closely with various Protoss armors, as does her flowing loincloth thing. The Protoss prefer rounded shoulder armor, rather than the spikes though. I considered making them Zerg armor, as several Dark Templar seem to adorn themselves with parts of their fallen victims, but decided that would look a bit odd, and wanted to keep Valeera's distinct profile. Remembering only halfway through that Protoss only have 4 fingers, and that two of them are thumbs was rather interesting as well.

| Being taken out of the queue when another player d/c's is so frustrating. Posted: 05 Sep 2018 09:50 PM PDT I really don't understand why this is a thing. League of Legends puts you back at the front of the queue if another player doesn't connect for some reason, so why not HoTS?

| One small thing I don't understand about HotS Brawls... Posted: 06 Sep 2018 03:48 PM PDT WHY can't you see the stats (Damage, Healing etc) after the game...? What is the logic behind that? [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 06 Sep 2018 03:43 AM PDT What do we really need in the roster ? As a main tank, I would like to have a new tank since Garrosh is the last one we had(august 2017 btw) [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Inconsistencies with Durance of Hate and Shade of Mephisto Posted: 06 Sep 2018 10:47 AM PDT Yeah yeah global ult OP, I like the root it's more interactive than "press r when enemies are low". For those who don't know, if you time your shade + Durance you can get it to cast either from Mephisto or from the shade location depending on when you start the cast: if you cast at the beginning of shade's duration, it will fire from your location, and if you cast at the end it will fire after you "rubber band" back to the original location. Useful for making unexpected roots, hitting specific targets, or tricking your opponents. The issue is that the aim is somewhat inconsistent: the shade "faces" towards the bottom of the screen, and when you rubberband back it can sometimes mess with the direction that Durance casts. Sometimes the cast direction is consistent, i.e. fire to the right side of the screen, it will fire to the right side when you rubberband. Other times it seems inconsistent, and the direction that Durance travels to the same place you directed it with the mouse. For instance, if you aim it at 11 o'clock from the teleported location, when you bounce back it will fire from the 1 o'clock position. I've dicked around in try-mode for five or so minutes trying to figure out what determines this without luck. Does anyone know what this interaction is about and what the expected direction of Durance should be when cast at the end of Shade? I haven't experimented with his Shade talent at 20 yet but I suspect it will make it even wonkier.

| Demon Announcer from BoE might hint at something Posted: 06 Sep 2018 05:33 AM PDT We got the Beleth announcer in last patch, the Demon that leads the Hell side on Battlefield of Eternity, yet we didn't get his counterpart for the same map, Ilarian. Why do I think this could be a hint on if not the next hero then perhaps a Blizzcon one? Simply because they tend to release cosmetics in packs, and that in a relatively close time periods. Remember Diablo Carbot Sprays? We got them when Deckard came out and that was soon after they released Carbot sprays for other characters. So, what character could go in pack with Ilarian? I am thinking its probably a Blizzcon Release and it will be either Imperius or Itherael. [link] [comments] |
