We had 2 games where we started quickmatch(me and few of my friends) and suddenly were playing cooperative against AI. I was flaming my friend because I thought he accidentally clicked on cooperative, lol.

If you want a basic outline of talents per hero it is best to goto hotslogs and search by hero and filter by master/diamond league. Heroesfire can easily be outdated.

Yup, most of us I guess. It's been reported in Reddit and Blizzard said that they probably know the cause and it will get fixed soon ™


Reddit says it's caused by Sylvanas, but that's not true. I've had it happen in games where there wasn't a Sylvanas on either side.

Blizzard's been asking for replays of games where it happens so I'm sure they have lots of data now and just said they figured out what's causing it:

I've played the Spider map twice and both times they were 30+ minutes long. Both time we had no idea how to finish out the game since someone's always dead somewhere and the map is so small that it's scary pushing across the midpoint. I didn't find the Spider's to scale very well either, so ya definitely not snowbally or OP map mechanics... but for me that meant really long games.

This has happened twice in the past two hours for myself. Upon entering Hero League, at the hero selection screen, I highlight my hero accordingly, and within a few seconds I am booted from the selection/game. I am then instructed that I was disconnected and cannot play another Hero game until I complete one Quick Match game without disconnecting.

Funny thing? I am not disconnecting, I am forcefully in someway being removed from the game/selection.

Anyone else having this occurrence? Known bug/issue?

Really?

[image loading]

I feel that spiders can be strong or weak depending when or how you utilize them.

For example, this time we basically just pushed mid as 5, litting the other 2 spiders push their lanes alone (case the enemy team wen't as five to defend), then when the mid one was dead, we wen't to bot.

Idk, seems an interesting mechanic, I've played 3 times on it, one long, one average and one short game, we'll have to wait and see.

Is sergeant hammer a viable pick for quick match? I just bought her but it feels gimmicky...with the right maps and team members it's really strong, but on other maps and a team without tanks/distractions you are just dead meat.

Well, in general, if you team doesn't have a tank, you are screwed xD.

SGt hammer was pretty good, I don't know how good she is after the patch though, I haven't played her yet. But she is dependant on having a competent team. One of the big mistakes I see hammer players make is sieging in bad positions, where it is easy for the enemy to jum of them. But in the same way, I see a lot of people that don't understand her and don't try to "cover" her or tank for her so she can do damage, also lots of people forget you can't move, and chase enemies away from your siege range for no reason, and then die.

SO I'd say she is good and most maps, but you are going to have not as much as a good time on some games.

I also really miss all chat . Don't understand why it's not there, it's teammates where the toxicity comes from anyway. I want to compliment someone on a nice kill or laugh about a dumb death.

I believe Hammer is viable vs. any comp, though obviously she won't always shine. Against comps that are good at killing Hammer, I've had good experiences going with a mobile survivability spec that relies on napalm strike and baiting the enemy into poor positions for team contribution.

Despite the recent hp nerf, I still find Hammer to be very survivable. If you suspect you will be targeted or you feel like every time you go into siege mode you will be killed, I would recommend trying to get a lot of the self-peel talents like excessive force and bullhead mines.

A living Hammer is better than a dead hammer, and hammer still deals respectable damage outside of siege mode w/o the increased siege damage talents. I recommend going Napalm Strike if you go down this road. It does a lot of damage and at 20, you will still have fantastic range.

This occurs to me a lot too.
This seems to be the best way to use the spider for now.

With Mura on the Spidermap I really like Sledge Hammer and Perfect Storm. The Spider is dead before it can do anything. Especially since the map itself is a giant hero backstab brawl so you can basically keep your hammer on cooldown.
I really like the spider spawn mechanic as well as it goes with the minion waves. The moment the opposing teams is getting closer to their spider summon you push one lane hard and let the others get close to your forts. Then you clean up the spiders that spawns close to you and gather to teamfight at the last remaining spider.
I also prefer split pushing top and bot at the beginning with Siege Giants. If these are down the middle fort offers like no protection.
But so far most don't care about positioning their spider spawn points, so who knows what works best in the end. But talents that boost damage against non heroic can be really useful.

Love playing Mura on that map but Zagara is still godly there, because of the vision she provides.

So why do you only play Murky in hero league? What if your team needs a tank or a healer?

i win a lot of games without healers and tanks. only rank 15, but people know what they're doing most of the time and dont dive too much, burst, fountain, etc. i can see it in team league, but solo queue... no. soloqueue is like quick match but with better people most of the time. it lacks all else anyways. if you guys want to play the same game with the same meta with the same staples every single game, that's great. its more fun for me to try one hero at a time, while still getting mixed with sem-decent people that you find in ranked, and still exploring what happens if there's no healers or tanks, and somehow we still win and have fun. if it didn't work out id prob be at the end of the ranks right? well, its good enough and I suspect most people in top ranks are pre-made teams anyways. cant do anything abotu that.

that leads me to suggest a ranked quick match would be more fun than what they have going now with solo queue.
