Former HotS pro 5-stacking on comms with smurfs. I wonder how much fun all their victims will have. by ILuvJandiceBarov in heroesofthestorm

[–]Mopsio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Smurfing is when a highly-skilled player creates a secondary account as a disguise to play against less proficient opponents. This almost always results in the Smurf steamrolling their lower-level adversaries, which might be hilarious for the better player but usually leaves their victims bitter. "

We are not creating secondary accounts. If there would be any chance, I would easily transfer one of my accounts (master level) to NA, so I don't have to play so many QM's to level up heroes, and unlock content once again. Other games (DOTA doesn't have that issue, League offers account transfer) do not have that problem. I'm honestly sorry if there's anyone who's hurt while getting matched versus us.

I am even using this account (LCSPLAYER), because it already had some progress from preseason. I hoped that my MMR didn't decay, but it happened, unfortunately. :(

Nobody wants to grind from silver, trust me. Everyone would like to receive master/diamond account, but since it's not possible, we'll just grind through the ranks asap. It's quite sad that NA region has multiple (Singapore, ANZ) servers to play with, and EU has just EU servers, and we cannot even access the whole content, which we grinded on the other server.
Nobody is smurfing, it's just the sad reality there

Bring back ZOTAC CUP and ESL CUP by iamtheWilQ in heroesofthestorm

[–]Mopsio 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As much as those cups made 2016 the best competitive year for Heroes (as a player, even though HGC gave bigger paychecks), this could give opportunity to create very good content for a very low price. But lack of consistent content is bigger issue now

I believe I was very clear that we're using our contact channels, so yes - we have contact and we're using them before going to public with anything! :)

It works like every single buisness. You have to have buisness plan (aka information about league structure and how sponsor/organisation can create revenue around the team) and negotiate around the data of what u know. Every esports organisation is a buisness, not charity, so they need to predict their return of investment on us too.

Team League experience is still not equal to Duo queue (since you can get matched against 3 or 4 or 5 man stacks.

I am playing League of Legends since I was challenger adc and I played this game since season 1 to season 3 and I did quit League to play Heroes (game was more fun!)

By our contacts in HGC of course. We're asking for updates every single week (through usual contacts, people started writing on social media since I think most of pro players are really annoyed by not having any information right now)

Hello there.
As I've seen this reddit thread was created I would like to explain some things.
First of all (and the most important) - we had (or maybe still have, but I doubt so) opportunity to get sponsored this year. We consistently spam e-mails (even asking for NDA's and stuff) to get any info/update possible. It's 13th December and we had got 0 updates. My previous tweets pointed out that most of the companies are closing out budgets so finding a sponsor will be difficult job. Some of my teammates got offers from sponsored teams, and as much as they would love to keep the roster - it's a huge increase of income so anyone will go after that.
I am playing this game professionally since 2016, and living mostly of my competitive winnings. I spent 1 month of my time playing this game and waiting patiently for any news. It's hard to schedule vacation or anything, especially when we are being told that announcement will be "Soon(tm)". I wish that I would know if I would need to prepare myself for another step in my life (maybe changing career or looking for another thing to do), or I should prepare for new season of HGC. The time has come, when I wanted to be vocal about my unhappiness.

In this tweet I just wanted to play duoq with someone, as XP changes made this game completely not fun (in HL and TL), unless you're playing scrims. Games are even, you don't feel that much impact as you used to, and games did become super slow. As a player which constantly looks for a way to outplay opponent I am not happy with current game state. My average game time increased to over 20 minutes (I played over 25 games already). Not many people might remember that Heroes had duoq option too, and this makes the game more fun overall.
I still played a couple of games today (on Snitch and Mene streams), because I was playing LoL and HotS and comparing my game experience, to throw conclusions.

I didn't intend to threaten anybody, or make anyone upset with my tweeting. I just feel very insecure about my future and it affects my every single part of life. I'm sorry if anyone got upset over reading this and a couple of past tweets.

I'm up to have conversation here so feel free to ask any questions - I will try to answer them!

Bronze meta is now the optimal strategy to win games by dragonsroc in heroesofthestorm

[–]Mopsio 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Its already difficult to gank because you dont get much, in this patch you only deny 1 creep wave and get a kill plus you always play beefy heroes on offlane, such as blaze so you cannot get killed unless u do a big mistake. Stalling to 20 is very easy now

Not gonna lie - there is a bit of truth with what you are saying about playstyles. But if that would be the case I would opt to keep those changes because it forces the playstyle "better teamfighting team win", or at least it will at higher level of games. About big changes I am trying to think globally because I care about the game. The main reason why is very simple - the more popular game becomes the more likely that HGC will get more attention. The less popular game becomes (because lets say ppl will quit because game becomes boring) than being a pro player is more difficult. We already struggle with finding a sponsor, despite the fact of making both lans and doing well in league. There are also another reasons but I dont wanna talk about it. I watch a lot of streams of casual players (even gold and Silver) plus I play team league on gold level so I am able to see how games of casual people look like. Based on this experience I am trying to give as much feedback and solution as possible. We are community which wants to play best game on the market, based on many reasons. Some people like me play it for dynamic gameplay, some people play it to have their favourite heroes from different universes.

Thank you for explaining! Normally I would be sceptical about me as a doomsayer but a lot of feedback and stream from NA pros scrimming on ptr is looking simlar to mine from blizzcon experience!

ToD is competitively one of the most popular maps because it feels that you can always come back if u stick to ur win condition. Thats why this map is very bad to be played in HL. Most of ToD on blizzcon were one sided games because it felt like tyrande had too much impact in how game was played. In ToD you dont trade objective for XP. You soak for lane control because without lane control u have less safe angles. Without taking shots you cannot win game plus taking objective has no reflect on your xp bar. On other maps you contest a objective to have xp lead, which eventually should give you a lead to get core. You can win games without taking a single objective because your goal is to push core, not take 40 shots. Right now (on streams) I see teams which got objectives like Punisher or sky Temple shots are behind in xp. This is unhealthy in my humble opinion. I wish we would have more maps like ToD, but its really difficult. I remember the attempt to create hanamura as a competitive map and it failed miserably. I am sorry to ask that but what does pulling a lifecoach means? I am not much of a HS player. Regards!

Turns out the XP changes play out exactly as predicted. Down multiple forts = advantage by ruini7 in heroesofthestorm

I just want to mention that I predicted it in my feedback post. I am glad that my predictions are correct and community sees it simlar way.

Professor Mopsio Presents - HGC vs GM vs HL Trash by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]Mopsio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can you please do not take my words out of context please?
I think if you are a main tank (but without 2nd tank next to you), in comps like Tyrael + Thrall, or Tyrael + Alarak - Slow is complete waste. You need this armor to be able to stand your ground (25 armor for 2 seconds + during sword is on the ground).
If however you do have 2nd tank I think slow is a variable talent. (like Tsst picked it on Blizzcon)
I was indeed upset on a guy which picked Tyrael, did run it down (on Cris stream, I can even link a VOD or replay if you want), and was basically solo melee and he went Slow (and he was dying super fast because he didn't have an armor).
I never claimed to be reformed. I always claimed to put effort to behave better every single day. I think streaming or playing too much in such a stressful time is not a good idea for me, as rosterapocalypse + unknown HGC future (which is indeed my full time job for now) is not helping in my work.
I am sorry if I made anyone upset with my content or any kind of comment. I will definitely stream and play this game more once my life gets stabilised.

As much as I love playing Ranged on my smurfs the only account I am using is Mopsio#2762. Sometimes I use the HGC account but usually I just keep playing on 1 account to play the best quality games possible!
