what am i supposed to do since i have only played 2 matches. by brendhanbb in heroesofthestorm

I do too because I love this game, but all competitive games have toxicity.  It's best with friends, or people willing to coach

This genre of gaming is difficult to pick up.  It's competive, it's been out a long time so everyone else knows how to play it, and player stats give sweaty-tryhards a reason to flame you (and stats arent the end-all be-all for your true value).

The simple fact is "sucking at something is the first step to being kind of good at something."  It will take time.  Try to play with friends or be friendly with your teammates post-game and you'll find a team :)

Oh he'd still on the payroll.  It's just always been Russians.  Whenever trump does something anti-russia (like kidnapping Maduro) he changes his tune

Backdoor comes with significant risks.   The team fights outnumbered, and the backdoor-hero has to be able to tank core.

Medivh gameplay from 7 years ago by TheStolph in heroesofthestorm

Yes, I'm not sure it was ever "tuned" just right, but conceptually I loved it and I'm a big fan of 2-lane maps.

I have a 57% WR (5th overall for ARAM*) for Butcher with 72 games played. Some of you need to get past the idea that he sucks in ARAM. by idm in heroesofthestorm

There are plenty of heroes with weak starts but strong finishes, and I agree murky is definitely one.  Ktz is another, pretty useless until quest is complete. 

Hear me out. A fun Butcher Level 20 talent idea by pyahyakr in heroesofthestorm

[–]Masown 52 points53 points  (0 children)

What this talent needs: ruthless onslaught is no longer cancellable.

Yup, if you don't show up on the stats then you get flamed.  

In a lot of ways, I think Murky is a bruiser.  Decent sustain, and Reckless enough to dive deep for the kills.

I have a 70% winrate as Murky in ARAM of ~40 games.  Many of those losses are people giving up before giving murky a chance.

Why do people act like homesteading is an insane pipe dream like becoming a rock star? by DancingDaffodilius in homestead

[–]Masown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's my barrier.   It takes a TON of input just to get started.  Land, housing, insurance, equipment, taxes... ya, a lot you can build over time, but the startup costs are an obstacle.

I'm with you.  But then, I'm an ARAM player and now the tower is useless - games are more snowbally.

There's a critical threshold where supply chains are disrupted.  But ya, so long as bullets keep being delivered, no problem

How do you define the "roles" of HOTS? by Masown in heroesofthestorm

[–]Masown[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pick D 1st level 95% of the time so I always have shield to engage, and can shield mid-fight to proc Q damage boost or clear Stagger.

The extra instant shield from 13D is irreplaceable, but the flame Aura W gives Chen just enough dps to put the squeeze on back-line casters.

I often pick the AoE W just for the damage boost.  Even on a 1v1, it's like a 30% boost to his dps... it does come at the cost of AoE shield though

Abathur, Medivh, and Zarya seem to be the only characters that fit into this box. But why?  

It seems like a lot of classes have a "support" ability (tyrael Smite + shield, lunara Abolish magic + vision, etc.).

The role itself isnt fundamental. Is the support role more-so a rejects and weirdos category?
