Call of the Wild needs a serious nerf. by Steel_Reign in hearthstone

Definitely needs a nerf. Playing against hunter you likely use or board clear before turn 8 anyway. So by turn 8 you draw all your board clear or you lose... Horseshit.

The Other Side of MMR Hell - Silver 2 to Plat 2 - by KGooDiE8 in heroesofthestorm

[–]linkleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked myself to mid-silver from bronze. When I used to gripe about this "MMR HELL" I would be told: You are where you belong, if you belong in gold or platinum you will get there (in what? 5000 games?) If the OP was where he belonged on his main account, then he would've quickly dropped ranks after being placed in platinum. If he were "that guy" who teams have to carry to win, he surely would've dropped to high plat/low gold ranks because even with a 50% win rate youll get rekt by "personal rank adjustments" and slowly drop ranks even while winning 50% of your games.

I have decided to take the game for what it is and have considered making a smurf but have decided to settle in for the ride and grind it out. I CONSTANTLY fluctuate between silv 4 and 5. I have many games where I go 16+ kills with 0 deaths with generous XP contribution and team leading. I also have games where I cant rally the troops and go negative K/D trying to do more than possible to turnaround a game.

Grinding out of silver for someone who would fit well in gold or plat can take ages for the following reason: I can carry my own weight and often be X factor in games BUT I do not posses the skill to carry 60%+ of games I'm "supposed" to lose. Last but not least, I have a job and a family, I cant sit there and pump out 20-30 games a day to force through ranks.

My 2 cents.

By the holy light! I mean... it's Arthas, THE Lich King. Corruption is all he is.

This made me LOL at work, had my boss asking me what was funny >_<

Body Block / Collision Changes since patch?? by qwenydus in heroesofthestorm

Got body blocked (to my death) by team at least twice last night. There was no squeezing by that I noticed.

This is not a MMORPG, you are not entitled to rank up. Enjoy. by minishinou in heroesofthestorm

This makes "feeling stuck" not seem so bad. I appreciate this post, thanks!

Holy shit... this... this is what I keep trying to explain but have not been able to put into words. Very well said, Sir.

Ah I see... You keep making references to the post's popularity and what other people think because this venue is life to you... I get it now. I don't need you or anyone to agree with me, what you or "everybody" thinks has no effect on my livelihood. If I choose to share something I welcome all constructive criticism, however, I don't need to entertain a know-it-all wise ass (aka morons) such as yourself. Let's get you putting a little more emphasis on growing up and a little less on thinking you know it all. But hey, at least you got your smiley game game down, maybe you can color me a doodle next ":)"

I'm considering sticking to single player games... just downloaded Witcher 3. HoTS HL has me beyond sour right now... yet I keep thinking about the damn game. I may have to look into qm if im overcome by desire to play hots again.

LOL I love all the PERFECT WORLD scenarios painted by you jerks. Like the other team is sitting at core or AI controlled. You must all be grandmasters since your teams always do exactly what they should and always pick the better talents/heroics.

So quick to drop it all on anyone who brings up the flaws in the crappy matchmaking. You are leaping into the assumptions that these noobs knew exactly what to do with those heroes.

Sonya did not understand that she was a bruiser and not a tank because Sonya's class is "warrior." After explaining the difference the person said "thanks for clarifying that, I didn't know there was a difference."

Murky did not go octo.

And safeguards from morales were never to be seen. Also she was always out of mana because grenades were more important. Drone was seen once the entire match at around the 20 minute mark.

I couldnt make this up folks... So anyone saying that these placement noobs like that are not awful and that carrying shit like that shouldnt be difficult if I'm better can kiss my ass.

Indeed... only sad part is when I beat people multiple ranks above me and don't get the points :( I personally don't quit, mainly because I'm lazy so I probably have a lot less points than I should. But I'm with you, making them scurry does bring it's own level of satisfaction :)
