EPTSometimes it happens, yes, and some maps are more snowbally than others, but most of the time, it is equal. or sometimes the other team is simply better than yours, being in skill or composition, and they win, and people blame it on the "snowball". But yeah, my experience isn't an absolut truth, so who knows.

Whenever i play it a teammate of mine takes the Dragon, but plays him so horribly LITTERALY ALWAYS using his W on highly damaged opponents, saving them instead of kicking away those with full life. Well, as a general principle, I play as best as I can and don't get worked up about my teammates performance. Just pretend you're in a single player game with some ability to communicate to the idiot bots that run around, and understand they are often gonna be idiot bots. Nothing wrong with that, nothing worth getting worked up about unless you only get your rocks off winning. In which case, actually play a single-player game because you aren't cut out for working with teammates. | ||

I wasn't trying to QQ about bad teammates, because obviously im aware of what you say and i wouldnt consider myself the greatest player either. I was just saying that imo DragonShrine is the worst map in Pubs in the context to was said before, because it is easy to missplay the Dragon. | ||

I was playing against him yesterday and he'd just wait to pop Apoc right after I popped spirit. I was getting virtually no milage out of my ult and didn't really think about picking Garg when I'm up against Diablo until after it kept happening. Not really. Garg is not very good. If you run into apoc Diablo vs spirit just wait for apoc THEN spirit. Means less optimal spirits but it's the only real solution. Apoc Diablo is very storng vs Nazeebo for this reason. If he never pops apoc waiting for you then you come out ahead, as mid to late game apoc Diablo is pretty bad without apoc. | ||

He seems to have some weird lag after his E where he doesn't attack at all for a full second, and I got screwed by pathfinding, spending 4-5s trying to get around a single enemy hero who wasn't even moving (Raynor). His model seems huge and that plus the rest makes him feel really clunky and awkward, on top of his low mobility. This really isn't my kind of hero. This is going to feel long... Diablo plays like a big cow. Not very responsive. Doesn't have a very big presence in teamfights. I'm kinda meh on him in general. | ||

Diablo is sort of meh atm, but not too bad in solo que, just need to deliver the enemies to your team, and is the tankiest hero in the game. | ||

The problem is that it feels like he was supposed to be a diving anticarry, but is simply inferior to Stitches in every single regard at that role. His CC on one target is really good, but unless you catch someone out already (something that Stitches can ALWAYS do with a hook), he doesn't really do much. His CC isn't enough to effectively zone for your carries due to long CDs, and he does no damage at all. | ||

It feels like having double charges for his E, lowering the soul requirement to 60 (especially lategame when people are grouped) and the ability to reduce his cooldowns via basic attacks would give him more presence in fights. He attacks slowly and has little mobility so it's hard to stick to people and deal dps, and his W seems underwhelming (I'd really rather get the double E charge than W reflux talent). He doesn't push too well and he can't really solo mercs either because he kills stuff so slowly. | ||

Iirc he doesn't have stoneskin or first aid, does he get the talent that improves his HP/HP regen via souls, then the one that increases his regen/received heals/etc., and the shields (ability shield then the active to shield nearby allies)?

Nazeebo is going to be a hero that varies greatly in use depending on the meta. Unlike Valla where Rain is still a good alternative to Strafe, Garg is pretty trashy compared to Spirit. I don't think Diablo alone is enough to justify taking Garg over a much, much better ult. I'd take Garg if I was up against a comp with a mix of Tychus, Tyrael, Abathur, Uther, Stitches, Anub'arak, Brightwing (all higher "tier" heroes which are popular enough in the current meta that playing Nazeebo is kind of difficult). | ||
