If you throw in her orbital strike, she definitely does more damage. She picks off heroes so damned easily anyway. Honestly, I think that the bigger problem is that she's a ranged hero with perma-cloak. If I was balancing her, I'd start by messing with that. Maybe just triple the time it takes for her to recloak. | ||

The problem is the Zeratul will be focused once he reveals himself and is a prime target for shrink-ray and other CC so he will frequently not get to use his full damage potential. | ||

I think this game after like 4 matches feels like objective based DOTA, i like it because i like the Blizzard characters, will be playing more over the next few days. Oh i bought LK straight away because well i always wanted this game to play as LK!! He is sick too, can take so much damage, just need to read up on a good build for him. I like the way the game feels at the moment. However the first game i did with default settings nearly made me rage quit. The camera mode where it defaults back to your character made clicking around the map impossible. Oh also is there anyway to remove that god damn chat/text box you get in the right of your screen in lobby etc? And...when i bought LK i got billie mount with it too :o looks so sick! | ||

Which cloned Hero would gain the most from the lvl 20 blink? Are there any combinations which are potentially OP? BTW: I started saving the location of the forts to f5-f9. Makes using calldown mule more effective. You can check the status of multiple forts in a half a second and then use calldown mule on the one which need it most in the other half of the second. | ||

The other day I played valla quite a bit and unlocked the talents. Today I come back to the game and ... I'm stuck again with the shitty low level talents. What the hell ?  | ||

They've said there are no more planned wipes, so your progress throughout the game is now being saved and will carry over to the open beta/full release. You should be more interested in the possible return of WC3, mr. RouaF!  | ||

Aye, there's a bug with talents and levels. It seems to affect games at random. Hopefully they address it soon. | ||

The way I enjoy League is not unlike the way I enjoy HOTS, as I don't find the games particular fun in them selves; rather it's the micro potential of the champions that makes the game for me. If I don't like the champion, then I would be bored too dead in both games (in Sc2 I also enjoy terran but I can't stand playing protoss). And that's kinda the issue with Heroes of the Storm, because while Riot has really focussed on the micro interactions, Blizzard seems to have had a higher focus on making the "lore" work, rather than focussing on making the battle interactions skillful. Illidan was quite fun for a while, but over time it got repetitive to smash Q and W and do the same simplistic micro over and over. Sure there is a quite a bit of "multitasking" in the game since you constantly need to move around, but battle micro is just the most important aspect for me (regardless of whether its an RTS or MOBA). I would like to play Zeratul also, but it's just gonna take forever to get 10K gold (I am at 6k atm) when you unlock like 30G for a win, and your forced to play different heroes to get more gold (which is something I really don't enjoy). One thing I noticed is that most skillshots have much lower range in Heroes than in League. Combined with slow movement speed and large model size, skillshots are mostly dodged by moving back in Heroes of the Storm. LOL on the other hand is more about predicting where the enemy will cast his skillshot, and then react to that (estimate) correctly by moving to the left or right. As a new player to both games, I enjoy League micro alot more. It's a bit sad as I really enjoyed the removal of excessive farming, no items/runes/masteries, not worrying about last-hitting, shared XP, mercenaries and many of the objectives. Therefore I will continue to follow the game as I hope Blizzard comes up with some "exciting" new stuff at Blizzcon. | ||

Keep mounted movespeed unchanged but make it so it doesn't feel like you're stepping into a pool of syrup once you hit the ground. It would also help out some characters without a mount like Hammer be a bit more viable. Combined with higher longer cast range of most skillshots that would be good. Then you could realistically hit someone that is far away, but the enemy can through his faster movement speed avoid taking damage, even if he is within range. I think in League many abilities have like twice the castrange as the default attack. In HOTS I think skillshots and default attack have almost the same range. | ||

I sat and stared at this post for like 5 minutes trying to figure out who the hell LK is. I even opened up the game to look at the roster. Then it dawned me that you're talking about Arthas, the Lich King. I must be getting old. | ||

If it requires 1-2 people to be attacking him in addition to Nova burst, that means he's the tankiest hero in the game. | ||
