Guys, I am going to let you in on a secret: Science doesn’t matter in Star Wars. They use WW2 style turrets to shoot down space fighters and there are wizard with laser swords. Its all stupid and fun, just roll with it.

Well then you are lost.

There's nothing fun about Jar Jar.

You are right. The existence of Jar Jar ruins all other movies made after and before him. I’m going to go home and burn my copies of the original trilogy.

In other news, Heroes of The Storm continues to be a video game that I am more willing to engage with than dota because matches are shorter. And my friends will play it because they don't have to look up builds. The two headed ogre continues to be so bad that he is good.

When you say you are going to burn your copies of the original trilogy, do you mean the original cut or Greedo shot first?

Also why'd they have to look up dota builds, are you being toxic to your friends. If I had a friend I would never be toxic.

My friends play league. They don't want to play Dota because its like league, but harder to get into and with a billion weird rules. Like BKB. We play heroes of the storm when we get tired of WoW, because it is low stakes. Plus you can skip the pick and ban phase with quick match.

e. looks like SD's new ult breaks everything/or is intended to do weird shit
do they play the tournament with this patch ? funnynontwitchface


Turns out when you make the assumption that no offensive purge will ever target an invulnerable & untargetable unit then make a purge that does exactly that some of your early assumptions don't work out so well.

I have no idea how that got through though considering it's one of the most obvious implications of the change.

Nothing wrong with enjoying HotS or LoL. Sometimes I enjoy tic-tac-toe over chess too. Just don't pretend you're not playing tic-tac-toe

Games with simple rules do not preclude depth and nuance in gameplay. Resistance/mafia/Secret Hitler are relatively simple games that have a depth due to the human opponents. Nor do esoteric rules sets does not imbue a game with increased worth due to the difficulty of obtaining a functional level of skill. Players should avoid infusing the perceived worth of any game with personal insecurities or misplaced tribalism.

That's a whole lotta oonga boonga coming from a HotS player. Am I surprised? No.

I’m mostly just mocking you needing to poo poo on a video game. Like some super fan of a band trying to prove that other bands in the same genre are “objective worse”. In what universe would I be out there bragging about playing Heroes and saying it is the superior game to dota? Do you even know me?

What's wrong planboy, HotS not leave you feeling fulfilled after playing it? It's okay planboy, I'll try not to embarass you here so you can continue to pretend your opinions aren't objectively wrong. I'm a really considerate person and care about you, planboy

It's just ironic because the dialogue was "Yeah its okay to play HotS or whatever, that's fine" followed by "JUST BECAUSE A GAME IS SIMPLE DOESNT MEAN ITS NOT NUANCED AND WORTHWHILE" followed by something about insecurities.

It is okay. HotS is a simpler game than dota. It is designed to be a simpler game than dota. It is designed to be more pick-up-and-play than dota. It has merits. You should not feel bad for having played HotS. You do not need to defend HotS. It is not chess. That is okay.

We're okay. Its okay.

Rolf is clearly an alpha male, as he is the son of a shepherd and not to be mocked.
