The performance of this game is pretty bad. As in I have a GTX 670 so DOTA/CS/LOL/Smite all run minimum 60fps but HotS dips below all the time. And I'm sitting here like wtf is this because even turning all the setting to low had negligible effect on the framerate and I realize right this is the SC2 engine. Eugh. Add that to the fact that the game doesn't support mouse buttons and it's just a sloppy piece of work I've lost all interest in. Yes I know it's a "beta" but still... | ||

Also this game is so confusing for me, every game feels like "oh we're losing, oh nevermind we're winning oh we have an advantage not really oh fine we lost" Level heroes to the 500 gold while doing dailies. You make gold fairly quickly. If you're always getting the guys on rotation leveled, you can get a lot of bank quickly without buying to many. Of course, I bought the Nexus pack on the "spend on FTP what i would spend to buy this game if it were not FTP" theory. But outside of that my gold gain seems decent. | ||

It wasn't so long ago that it was a straight UMS with shit UI and a lot of boring/broken heroes. It's improved massively over the last few months, and I wouldn't be surprised if those issues get a serious look at, if not an outright fix. Well if this was a beta for the latest Battlefield I'd expect framerate issues, but not a casual moba. And I've never launched a game that doesn't recognize Mouse4 and Mouse5. It's just sloppy. | ||

Is Illidan kind of like zeratul in that he has super low (well not that low but not top) hero damage on the chart but it has a lot of influence on kills, or am i doing something wrong? You are doing something wrong. Illidan has is a sustained damage dealer, meaning that he has to be actively fighting at all times to make any meaningful contribution. Zeratul is a burst damage dealer, who has to pick his spots. | ||

Also, metamorphosis or the hunt? I thought the hunt was better from comments on reddit, however according to hotslogs talent section, everyone on master picks methamorphosis. | ||

The only exception is if your team wants to go heavy on split pushing and asymmetric strategies. | ||

xDaunt is right. With Illidan's contribution, what you see is what you get. And even in master league, Illidans are worth less to their team than another hero. (sorry xDaunt) Unfortunately, Blizz cant buff Illidan much. At high elos, people just laugh and 1v1 him. At low elos, people run from Illidan. (to be fair to Reddit, hunt is really good at stomping scrubs) Illidan may be fun. However, if you only want to win, your time will be better spent practising other heroes. | ||

However, if you only want to win, your time will be better spent practising other heroes. I disagree. I think Illidan is tier 2 right now, assuming you actually play him like he's supposed to. He faces the same problems as abathur, he's so hard to play that he often comes off as weak, then when someone with a decent brain and understanding of his kit comes around, he suddenly shines a lot more. But yeah, if you play him for a shitty The Hunt build, he is low tier 3. | ||

But with First Aid, Metamorphosis and Blood for Blood, you should be fine, unless you like to Faker it up :3 | ||

- Playing abathur i felt like he was nerfed hard. Not sure if he is still strong but i doubt he will be a first ban from now on. The monstrosity is just weak. Symbiote is potentially stronger with the new talent tree, but you cannot use it while on the much weaker ultimate evolution. Bad ultimates = bad abathur. - And Lili nerf? I think she is better despite the noticeable and annoying range reduction on healing brew. There is no overlap on healing brew and blinding wind talents. Kung fu hustle is nice too, but not sure if its the way to go. Spamming blinding wind with slow talent and healing brew seens like a viable option over ultimate and im having fun with that. Some Lilis are doing nice damage to compensate for her lack of burst heal. - Finally, Sky Temple is a good looking map. But im not a big fan, its all about teamfights in the shrines and it takes forever to move around. The interesting feature is when two shrines activate at the same time, but when both teams agree to hold different ones... ¬¬ | ||
