Thx for the article. I am not a huge fan of MOBAS but i will check HOTS out i guess. Especially because of the fast games (15-30 mins). I always disliked the very long LoL or Dota games.

The TL articles on heroes are great. It's just hard to get excited when you can't play the game. I'm hoping heroes will be fun to watch during SC2 downtime at least.

Exactly.

Kind of salty that I STILL have not gotten an invite on any of my accounts to play this even though I own sc2, d3, and d2 on all 3 accounts.

I think it should be known at this point that those invites are 99% random. Even if you fit certain criteria, there are so many others that do as well that it will be random again.

I'd say for the most part they are anti random. I imagine every Blizzard-related proplayer got an invite.

That is true but those make up the minority of the alpha-playerbase, right?

No idea what is the ratio. Worth to keep in mind that there are different levels of affiliation so between anonymous D3 player and IdrA there is quite a gradation.
I don't really like when game company is making a lot of fuzz around a game and you can only watch a stream. It really says upfront that some gamers are more improtant than others.

That's not it at all. There's a compelling interest in testing a game in a limited setting before releasing it wide. The game as it is right now is not completely stable, lacking many key features, and has a badly tuned economic/XP system. It is constantly in flux and not the thing consumers expect from a Blizzard game.

It's the community's decision to try to forge this into a competitive game despite the lack of observer mode, a good replay system, and all of the maps being balanced and polished. The same happened with the SC2 beta.

I own an unsub wow, sc2+exp + d3 + HS and I took the survey and implied I play dota for several years. 1 week ago I received my technical alpha invite. Having more games and played a moba before is enough to qualified for an invite, then may be random.

Naniwa has not played a single Heroes match in a tournament. As for TL, they were announced as a team after this article was written.
