Sylvanas hits pretty hard for someone who is not supposed to be an assassin. She always has some of the highest hero damage in game (if not the highest), but it is not always clear how much of it is attributable to meaningless spam. What is clear, however, is that she has tremendous value in teamfights in addition to being a goddess of siege. I haven't played too many games with her yet, but there have been times where I felt like my contributions to a teamfight were unduly significant -- mostly because of the devastating potential of wailing arrow.

Sylvanas, just gotta remember she has evenom which can wreck you pretty hard early game. Another thing to remember is her escape, if she shoots, follow that thing.

Yeah, she seems too strong atm, at the same time her 2nd ultimate is too weak.

She does too much damage considering she has an escape imo. Then again, I'm just going off how I feel, I haven't really compared her damage output to another hero that has no escapes like Jaina.

Her escape is horrifyingly bad though, only marginally faster than walking due to the long cast time and relatively slow missile speed, though it can go over walls. It's not really good at directly running away, more for juking skillshots and hopping walls.

I do think she's too strong in that her splitpush is devastating even without the talents to support it. That means that she can take all the dueling talents, splitpush, and 1v1 most anyone, creating a lopsided map that the rest of your team can take advantage of. Her backdooring potential thanks to the passive + dagger heal is insane. The only thing bad about her is her relatively low autoattack damage for a ranged champion. It makes it take a lot longer to kill forts and the like, though you do so with complete safety.

Well, my new favorite teamcomp to play in team league is Jaina/Diablo/Tyrande/Uther/Sonya.

So much burst damage/heal/cc. Stunlocking tanks from 100-0. Endless pick offs. Sooooo much fun.

My new favorite Zeratul build for quickmatch is everything into autoattack skills and get Shadow Assault. You burst anyone down so fast, and they can't blink or sprint out of it.

I have been seeing a lot of weird Zeratul builds. Will be interesting to see which one ends up being the new standard.

Well then she doesn't teleport, which is what makes her so obnoxious, your team has to cover both options. But as others have said it's pretty slow so as a straight line escape not that good. But over obstacles or to juke people it's strong. Seen a lot of people die while waiting for the banshees to get somewhere safe too.

My Zeratul build has generally been seasoned marksman, gathering power, first aid, void prism, assassins blade, double bombs, and nexus blades. At this point, I feel like I miss regen master more than wormhole. I tried the straight auto-attack build, but didn't like it. It leaves Zeratul too exposed. And void prism is just so much better than shadow assault most of the time.

Is regen master really much better than block? For example with Arthas, I would rather have the block to soak a hell lot more damage in a team fight than having regen master.

For someone like Arthas, probably not. For Zeratul, I certainly think so. Regen master allows Zeratul to roam for days without ever having to back. It also lets him take mercs and other objectives safely. There's just a ton of utility there that I have always thought was underappreciated.

regen master is sweet on zeratul but poor on arthas just because zeratul has such a smal healthpool. Zeratul can reasonably get up to %2 hp regen which makes it sweet on him as you can actually creep when you have the talent and just have to get back less in general. First aid does that to some extent too though so i feel it matters how many globes you expect to get and how much creeping you do.

Overall I don't ever feel zeratul is worth picking at the moment though, losing his great burst at 16 kinda gimped him. He isn't awful but whenever I might take him I think there is just a better pick.

I've been saying that she feels too effective at everything. She has a great escape, she has great pushing and she has great damage. There doesn't seem to be a clear downside to her at the moment. Most assassins/specialists are good at 2 out of 3 of those things and when they're good at all 3 they get nerfed. Like pre-patch Tychus was good at all three, pre-patch Valla was good at all three. I'd be shocked if she doesn't see the nerfbat sometime soon.

I think he's still a solid pick if for no other reason than void prism. In particular, his ability to set up team raping combos is unmatched. But I do generally agree that he should not be picked in all circumstances.

Hey, what do you guys think of a TL Community Theme Based War?
Something like StarCraft vs. WarCraft, Good vs. Evil etc?
I don`t want to go ahead and make a thread (the time commitment doesn`t fit atm) - just wanted to throw the idea out here!

yea, that`s a pitty. It`s probably more feasible the more heroes will be released.
Maybe a compensational hero could work, but that a little bit try hard.
... good thing i haven`t opened a thread
