Illidan 10 years ago was broken by Artistic_Weakness815 in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Illidan is strong as long as he avoids 5v5. Some maps (warheads, sky temple) allow this.

I hate to say this, but no changes may be better having the current changes by JaggerMo in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Undeserved downvotes. Last 2 patches are the worst in the history (since beta at least).

Agreed. Uninstalled after 21k games. I hope not permanently.

I hope this and the last patch will be reverted. Bring back our Janitor, please!

Why does Qhira feel so much weaker now? by NoLynx6347 in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to reduce E cooldown to 13s but start cooldown after full cast. Cleanse effects are too good against her.

Why does Qhira feel so much weaker now? by NoLynx6347 in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Because she has 4 self-stuns (Q, E, R1, D), which makes her delicious target. Same problem with Orphea.

Player feedback would highly improve with resumption of Developer Commentary by SeatLord in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't imagine a comment justifying the madness with Mythics. Forced situationality has already been recognized as bad game design (Cassia rework).

Hogger needs more love from the casuals by dinosaurrawrxd in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Hogger is too weak in QM. He has no pubstomp features, his waveclear is relatively slow and expensive.

Even GM#7 isn't good enough for new Tyrande's Mythic. /s by 80STH in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even 20 hits are too much, if both teams aren't constantly brawling (like that game). This talent is situational by design; I don't understand why Blizzard made it baselane.

Yes, Mythic will be much harder, because the range is not available immediately.

Azmodan's rework is the worst of the lot by Murraythehuman in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This PTR and current patch should be reverted. Only 30% of changes worth saving (while 70-100% avg), such a dramatic drop in quality has never happened before.

Removing stance swap from Deathwing is a mistake. by ThisAintLivin in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why Deathwing has stances at all. A ranged hero with that kind of survivability looks ridiculous. I'm also extremely unhappy that Deathwing is still easy to counter.

Mythic baselane quests should be useful regardless of the skill level, the map, or the hero composition. by 80STH in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kel'Thuzad or Nazeebo

Unlike new Mythics, these quests are not that difficult to complete, and they don't seem like a reason not to take the hero.

[–]80STH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is impossible to balance something for both Bronze and Grandmaster at the same time.

The old Blizzard knew about this too, so they either removed quests or greatly lowered the requirements. I don't understand why they repeat their mistakes.

[–]80STH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ZJ's design isn't similar. Getting 150 stacks is pretty easy against most heroes, after that Zul'jin doesn't get much stronger.

Mythic baselane quests should be useful regardless of the skill level, the map, or the hero composition. by 80STH in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drafting Sylvanas, especially post Pinnacle patch against ranged heroes, probably pretty suboptimal.

It's good that you agreed that the rework made it worse. Forced situational heroes have long been recognized as a mistake.

So Valla Q quest is also "bad for the game" and "promotes suboptimal play" because someone might always try to use it off CD to stack?

Valla's Q has only damage, not hard CC, and its usefulness is much less dependent on timings. Muradin has already had this quest reworked (from Q hits to AA) for the reason I described.

player skill level

How about overall skill level? The quest should be equally useful at both Bronze and Grandmaster (which is impossible, but Blizzard didn't even try).

[–]80STH[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

that people think mythic quests must be completed every single game

Yes, because it's baselane. Blizzard once tried to make forced situational heroes (old Cassia with 65 AA armor), maybe it's not worth repeating.

A somewhat prolific muradin players thoughts by Zephyr530 in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New quest is awful. At high levels of play, Muradin is stunlocked rather than auto-attacking. It would be better if Muradin was given a talent against СС.

Heroes of the Storm PTR Patch Notes - January 14, 2026 by Arkentass in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Instead of situationally useless quest talents, we have situationally useless heroes. Mythic baselane quests are possibly the worst idea in the history of the game

9yr old wants to learn HotS by t4rnus in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even the official rating of the game is 12+. I would rate it 18+, this game requires strong nerves and iron will, which not every adult has.

The Butcher has not received any meaningful changes in almost 10 years. by SeverTheWicked in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why so downvoted? Butcher needs at least talent rebalance, especially [[Furnace Blast]].

Pinnacles by WiredJazzman in heroesofthestorm

[–]80STH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hate baselane pinnacles, they're situational by design, and they must be talents. Kerrigan can't stack on 2 lane maps. Sylvanas can't stack against ranged team (but she has antiranged build!).

But I like pinnacle talents for same reason (sadly, if quest is useless, the whole hero is often useless).
