Bot can get stuck in the middle of nowhere just fine on his own, if you want it to actually do anything you ping on the hero the bot currently controls, that way it will follow the person that gave the command.

Kinda wondering, why didn't they added Blademaster from war3?

He'll be added eventually (as a "named" hero, don't remember which). He was visible in one of the Blizzcon video IIRC.

tbh i find abathur twice as obnoxious as anybody in the game, also playing solo and run into premade 5 with all the broken heroes in the same team like abathur, tychus, tassadar is rage inducing

You won't run in a premade of 5 if you're solo, at worst 1+4 vs 1+4. You can check in the postgame if there was a premade on your team because the button goes from "invite to your group" to "ask to get in their group" (basically).

The most obnoxious heroes to play against are good Novas and good Abathurs. However, I think Azmodan and Gazlowe deserve honorable mentions. A split pushing, backdooring Azmodan is a nightmare. Gazlowe can cause similar problems by aggressively ninja'ing merc camps, but he's easier to shutdown (particularly when I play Zeratul).

Gazlowe is very usefull at ravens map with defending tributes, and less usefull with Pirate for example, but still, he's kinda "strange" hero. Nova is simply imbalanced with her ultimate. I found that direct line pushing is not the best solution on any map, due to a more important tasks available on all maps (for example 70 skulls golem would be much more effective in terms of pushing).

I don't know if it's because I played her during Valla and Raynor free week (also Arthas/Diablo), who are much less dangerous (and easier to get to, until Valla players learn to take the double Vault talent) than Nova, but I feel so less useful now as Sonya.
Tried going the Seismic Slam build, it does nice single-target dps if you can sustain the fury (taking fury shot over lifesteal at level 1) but lacking the multi-man whirlwind to sustain myself I feel extremely fragile (despite taking the talent granting an active 10% HP heal (over the one raising Slam's secondary damage to 100%)) and if I ever run out of fury I don't do much as I need to build up some before hand to sustain the first few ones.

Obviously not having fatties like Arthas/Diablo or melee assassins like Kerrigan to easily spin on in the current free rotation doesn't help. Chasing is also hard because the MS boost from your trait is "eaten" by the ground you lose casting Slam, and while I'd ideally want to chase someone, Slam him, use the boost to catch up and auto him once to build Fury then cancel it with a Slam, rinse-and-repeast, you can't afford to slip in an auto each time and you Fury suffers.

I'm not tanky enough to play "real" frontline, but I don't deal enough damage unless people stack up for a whirlwind or have their back against the wall and have to manfight me.
I'll play a few games going back to the whirlwind build and see if even with that less friendly rotation it sustains me enough to have an impact on fights, but I feel more like a sub-assasin without an escape atm.

I've seen some good Sonyas, but she's not my cup of tea. I don't like her engagement abilities and lack of hard CC. I much prefer playing Tyrael.

How do chat channels work? Can I see who's in it? I'm in channel teamliquid yet no clue how to see if others are in.

Just type /who while in the teamliquid channel, should bring up all the names currently online.

Sonya looks kinda weak at the moment, but I think we'll see alot of changes in the next patch

Gotta agree.

I played against So1dier's Nova the other day and I was absolutely wrecked (granted my Valla wasn't great to begin with). I'm seeing Abathur about every other game now and double Odins is just so silly to play against.

There's so few people in the TL channel or do you just hang out on other place? Or I just have bad luck. The reddit Chanel does have a lot of people though.

I think that the chat channels are just so fucking horrible and lacking in features that nobody bothers.

I normally ask the TL channel if anybody wants to stack, but the response rate is pretty abysmal. It's easier to add a few people and ask them through whispers.

Yeah, just add TL people (see the link in the white banner above for the doc with player IDs) to your friends list. I've played games with Blitz and deth2munkies.
