Has something like this ever been implemented? Would this even be enjoyable for the general viewer? I know I'd love watching it, but then again, I love everything about this game. haha
I don't play or follow LoL, but I thought they had a coaching mode which was this plus the ability of the coach / general to write on the map like the telestrator during a sports broadcast.

I'm not sure. I don't know anything about that game. Does anyone know if it works?

Like maybe make it so first blood awards 1.5x the normal XP but also deducts 20 seconds from the death timer or something.
I was watching a stream and a team won a team fight but only with 2 left and 1 respawn and the other had 1 escape...they didn't kill the golem at all, but just got a certain amount of skulls and then exited and got the bruisers while the other team rushed to the golem and lost all the mercs.

yeah the big one doesn't give enough skulls at the beginning for the effort needed to kill it. Go left in mines for the small ones as a team. The team that does that usually wins unless they get a horrible team fight.

If you dodge games you lose ranks, is that it?
Also, why is Falstad so unpopular? Hes really fun to play, and in my opinion one of if not the best auto attack damager in the game.

Because he's beyond squishy, and can't keep up with mounted shenanigans.

So i noticed Shark slap Murky wins games this week in quick matches. And makes people ragequit. Today I had my personal Uther as Hammer. And my personal Hammer as Brightwing. The Hammer Bot was cool, sieged the moment enemies were close even when in bushes.
Uther bot was way cooler though I sieged up and he was holding the temple and we stun sniped the opposing team coming in one by one lol.
But the Murky hate is really losing you games.

How you think Falstad can beat the likes of Hammer and Zagara in auto-dps is beyound my imagination ^^
The old AP boomerang build got nerfed and going auto-heavy just isn't very favorable when you are one of the most immobile champions in the game facing off against the likes of Illidan, who will just dodge every single thing you throw at him.

That's can be the answer. I pressed alt+f4 when first two picks in my team on garden of terror were vikings and murky, and suddenly i was demoted from rank 1 to rank 3 :D

Now that we have had time to play more the game, how do you feel about the gold gain?
I feel its fine, and they are increasing it even more in the next patch. There aren't any heroes i wan't to buy now except for Tyrael and Sylvanas. A lot of my friends have 20k+ gold because they are in the same situation. Not all of us buy master skins, or prefer to buy other heroes first.
|
Where could I find a comprehensive beginner's guide/ site/ video to Heroes? I've never played any MOBAs before, there isn't that much information on Liquipedia, and I have literally no idea where to start. Thanks
|
Gold gain might be tuned down once the game is released, depending on how easy it is to cheat farm gold, see Hearthstone. Dailies are more then fine. Even though I would love to be able to exchange one daily for another each day. Had 3 times play a starcraft hero this week. And the choice between Raynor or Hammer in this deep diving week. Really not alot of fun.
Grubby has a few Guides on youtube, that are very informative and watching his stream also gives some ideas. Otherwise I found it hard to find alot of good information, since there are many different opinions on how to play the game and all work under certain conditions.
