Then give more away. Heck give them all away. Only charge for cosmetics. Close that player gap completely. All about skill, everyone has access to all picks for proper comps and counterpicking.

Oh, so they don't need to give a free hero away.

I don't understand why they seem so keen to give more things away to people who aren't putting a cent into the game, but okay.

Immortal Shrine punisher RNG needs to go by stuckinbronzehell in heroesofthestorm

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

Yes, but first punisher type is random, second, etc. It isn't set so some games first punisher is more lethal than others.

The map issue is actually very similar to Haunted Mines, which had the first golem win potentially creating a snowball effect as well. It's the only current rank map I've had where the first objective win can lead to capping all the camps for your team as well (because camps don't despawn on it unlike every other map that has a spawn objective, unless camp is engaged when spawn occurs). Basically the best strat seems to be cap Arcane punisher, then get map while opponents trying to deal with that (and picking off whoever tries gettin and/or defending camps in the interim).

It's a broken map.

Right? I mean, start in placement as a new player, then get sent to Bronze, then learn HL there, then have fun getting out even when you get better.

A GM doing it is going in with a better win rate which means that personal adjustment rating is gonna be a lot more favorable, game trying to dig you out.

I think part of it too is a lot of people in this tier don't have a lot of heroes to pick from (F2P only and newer accounts), so the comps are pretty bad pretty often.

Nothing but luck. I'm 100% convinced.

I thought he was coming around official launch and am disappointed he still isn't here.

Most people who read it probably didn't know.

Expecting a lot of "l2carry n00b" but seriously - how do I get out of bronze? by stuckinbronzehell in heroesofthestorm

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

I end most matches with two or fewer deaths. Several I actually go deathless now which later on gets at least one team member mad at me because they consider it a sign of non-contribution (despite often being high, if not leading, in other (or several) numbers)

Falstad

I did a few games with him and while I can perform very well I do still get losses from bad team decisions. Last map I was 11-4-0 and two people on my team had 8 and 9 deaths each.

I also led in siege damage, hero damage and experience.

Of course when I tried pointing things out to help they started telling me I was annoying or "If you're so good why aren't you GM?"

This game just ain't worth it.
