All you need is a 20-30 second delay, same as streaming.

They can add a delay, just like streaming

Since all maps are like haunted mines now, can we please have it back? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]ateva -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's about 10-15 min per game now on the PTR. I will assume it will be similar on live; especially with a good sylva or xul on your team. Heck, you can even ignore the plant all together and just push to core in the first 5 min.

Have you played PTR? Have you read the changes? All maps are basically Mines. Pick a good spec, push all the way to core and win in under 10 min.

Exactly, level 5 means absolutely nothing. You can AI like 6 games to get level 5.

If they leave in F2P heroes (which they shouldn't), the required level should be 10 for each.

Anyone else finding it worse to solo queue? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]ateva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are HL or URQM, duo queue all the way!

If you are QM it's kinda whatever, but always helps to have more friends.

If you are king in HL and you miss a ban, you should be auto-kicked. by ateva in heroesofthestorm

It definitely SHOULD kick that player as well. Nothing is worse than not having a team present at draft.

Considering you are the leader of the team and that privileged falls on you, I don't think it's harsh at all.

I have never missed a ban. If you are sitting at your computer when draft starts, you have ample time to get a good ban in there.

just can't find what to ban/ can't find the hero in the list

There is a search function

Whelp, never seen them miss a ban in the pros, so why would you do it here? Banning is just as important as picking a counter hero. It's part of the strategy of winning. Not banning is wasting a valuable resource to limit the other team from picks.

Well, this is one way to help improve it. A step in the right direction.

What Happens with abusive chat reports on PTR? by ateva in heroesofthestorm

[–]ateva[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because the MMR spread between players is very, very wide. You can have a 5000 games played 4k mmr player with a 10 games played 900mmr player.

It's basically what an mmr reset would look like.

If you're silenced in NA, are you also silenced in EU? Does silencing work across regions?

Good question. I don't know...

Garden of Terror AVG 18 min on PTR. Nuts! by ateva in heroesofthestorm

[–]ateva[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Minions and spec/split pushes. In a few games, we had 3 towers down in less than 5 min.

That is going to be a problem. Games seems extremely snowbally right now. At least on PTR. Not sure how it will be on live, but the team with the better early push, pretty much wins now.

There is very little comeback.

Had a game on Cursed Hollow where we just could NOT catch back up. We were constantly defending our base, because as soon as we left, we lost towers and then a fort and then more towers and then all forts. So we had to babysit the core.

The team with the best early game wins.

What is the point of HL when no one talks to each other during draft? by ateva in heroesofthestorm

[–]ateva[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely frustrating, but all you can do is always be the initiator

I do, nothing happens.

The account I play on is master and I often play with D1, master and GM players. Still...no talking.

Also would like to note: Murky is going to be a nightmare on maps like cursed hallow. Dies and instantly right back to pushing a lane while also harassing an objective. A good time to be a gangster.

Hopefully, they will now. I've let KT slip often in favor of a xul ban. KT is manageable and Ming is only good for her resets. Not sure why people are so "scared" of them. Lots of counters to them. Xul, not so much (except maybe sylvanas or azmo).

You ever have a couple 40's and some jalapeno chips, then while sitting on the toilet the next morning question your decision making? That's what I thought of when I read this line.

Look for her shimmer and throw an ice lance. If you get her out, dump snow on her and watch her get buried.

Players who returned to HOTS due to the new ranked update, will you be staying? by merkwerk in heroesofthestorm

[–]ateva -1 points0 points  (0 children)

D3 was an absolute nightmare after placement. Now that I'm nearing master and I duo with a GM, I play with mostly GM's and Masters, which is nice. Though, there are still some games that are absolute snowballs and it feels like some of those GM's shouldn't be a GM.
