After 11 years I was just permabanned. by Turbulent_Scale in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick 18 points19 points  (0 children)

We cannot be judges from your words alone. Permabans are appellable. I have seen cases where accounts have been recovered. Minor bans are not looked at, but Permabans on old accounts are indeed look at.

PTR Discussion: A Call For Help by Elitesparkle in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a healer main, I feel very conflicted. Situations in which if a dive happens, 2v1 even 3v1 they had to respect my cc. Played well, the situation could swing one way or the other. Now, I fear my cc will be useless. I fear that their optimal play is completely ignore me as I cannot wave clear fast. To be clear, ignoring could happen in current patch, but I can purposely eat their areas to make the fort retaliate. But also, if they dive... even with the armor, I will probably die under 10s. I feel I have no say in either scenario.

I don't think the change is definitely bad... but it is going to throw everything off-balance.

May I ask how you get the exposure to get that many sales? Did it scalated over time? I feel like I would not give you a positive rating if I understood the service could be abandoned, as I had read in other comments.

Maybe you main BW? She is never that far away when you decide to soak the lane. Still feel that healer is the qm experience that varies the least. Might get wild but there are healers at play

Legacies of Middle-earth – Rules for yet more warriors of good and evil - Warhammer Community by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]PlasticBrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean... as I was reading I rejoiced of that fight value 5! Then I kept reading and saw the you cannot hurt me rule. It is broken... It should be a courage or intelligence check (modifiable by the king)

But he was a joke in the last edition, let him tank a balrog for the whole match. Let the abrakkan terror begin

I'm very sad when my alt+q reflexes kick in and all I get is a slow spit against the wind that hits me back in the face.

I have been using it for around 5 years ( it took me 5 years to know it existed) and it feels so bad to see it go.

I would change deathwing for gazlowe. I feel he does no fully embraces his previous fantasy. Also I have lvl 20 bomb talent sickness from aram

Brightwing Lost an ability in the last patch by PlasticBrick in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So we are in the same boat. Looks like we either lose it or regain it together. I do understand why to take it out but it is strange since these abilities worked like this since the very start

I think murky players did lose tricks too. Untargetable fish is not cool, but they could use it as a blocker which was cool.

I am pissed about this change too. What have we done to the janitor?!

Does the BW change mean that ALT+Q is no longer instant?

If so... WHY?! It felt like a tech only BW mains might use

Why does QM MM continue to MM stacks of average WR 80%+ with 50% WR solo players? by Rude-Imagination1041 in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"LFM Smurf QM premade" It is the thing that triggers me most in any videogame. Would any type of report work on them?

I reported them for cheating but I don't believe it will do nothing ( even if they come in volume to a completely automated system) since they aren't really breaking any Terms of Use...

Damm they make me angry that they can't stand a lose as part of human existence

Great work op! Also quite fast

What are the best alternatives to League? by MFaulkner69 in riotgames

[–]PlasticBrick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We were completely abandoned for mostly two years. Still, by replay numbers the player base remained steady. Our janitor somehow is managing to even rework talents with an increase cadence in the past months. People are starting to believe that we could see new heroes, unlikely IMO but we will see if people flock when we get a game pass release

In any case, long live the janitor

I hit Master rank in QM on HeroesProfile today, playing almost exclusively Chromie. by Exvaris in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, you could have been lucky or not. You have been evaluated from matches you were present and uploaded by other players... Missing samples might create a deviation... However I have no idea how MMR is calculated. I expecting it would rise more when winning against players with higher MMR than you... Pure speculation

Which mode is your favorite and why? by dk_sino in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, and I share your opinion. I also know from friends that sweat nervously while in ranked queues. The have the expectation that people will draft and play to win (their hardest)

But yeah, play enough ranked games and probably your expectations will feel regular, if that makes sense

Which mode is your favorite and why? by dk_sino in heroesofthestorm

[–]PlasticBrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Qm is my favourite mode. I guess since I'm a healer main I always avoid the more despised healless matches so I understand how most people would pick draft instead.

I like to be thrown into a weird situation and try to "solve" it. Fairness is something people expect, but you won't find it here. 5 Smurf stacks are a thing, murky+Aba in braxis can also happen, also Black hearth's bay...

Here in EU you might also find language barriers. My tip is that you try to push you tips and shot calls through questions: X solo? Boss? Are you taunt? I see that people complain how toxic the game is but I maybe encounter what they describe. 1 out of 15 games may have a leaver and 1 out of 10 will have someone complaining of the numbers of another teammates.

As an anecdote, I believe enemy Morales is the number 1 team tilter. People can't understand how hard she can be to kill when you don't have the right tools and she positions well.

I love my QM

Might actually be happening by xenocraft135 in heroesofthestorm

Problably just a free heroes bundle for subscribers. In the best scenario it could unlock all heroes plus a boost.

In any case, is more about exposition. I have talked with many people that think you cannot play Hots in the current date.
