This is a decent overview of the current hero league meta. Different people will value certain heroes more or less, but it gives you a starting spot for general hero strength if you are in doubt.

Most of the guides in my Guide Collection should be up to date. I will check to see what needs to be removed when I get some more time, but most of my free time has been spent on Overwatch lately.

Leolio and karazax thanks for the run downs. I got some research to do now it looks like.

I actually liked/played Jaina a lot during her free weeks. I meant to buy her when she dropped in price, maybe I'll get around to it now.

But, first I think I'll brush up on my Anub, Muradin and Valla play. Then I guess I should pick a support to get good at to round out drafting and see where that takes me.

Update on my journey to r10 (from r17):

First game in almost half a year, I end up team lead: I banned Xul and hoped for the best. We went up against an Illidan / Morales comp and despite having Rexxar / Muradin (me) we failed to chase off Morales and lost pretty hard. Minus 106 points.

Second game, entire team was r16 except me at r17. Went pretty well, despite getting forced into a healer (I went Monk). Died more than I should have, but I landed 2 palms (baiting an overextension into kill both times), 1 useless palm and 0 whiffs! Plus 90 points.

This might be harder than I thought.

I'm stuck with Illidan. Like, really stuck.

If I play at gold - plat level, or random QM, I usually wreck people. If I play him at diamond level I usually lose, and lose hard. I'm stuck and I really don't see what I can do.
I cannot do QM / unranked to improve because these are usually one sided games, and Illidan is too strong there.
Cannot play ranked because I may make my team lose just because of this pick.

I'm looking for advices to make that last step and be able to play him competitively. Someone has a good ressource or good advices for me ?

Illidan requires both you and your team to understand what is going on, which is very hard to acchieve in plat/diamond.

I don't play a lot of Li Ming, But did this weekend because she was free.

Does anyone like going Seeker and Fireflys as their build. Really like that one seemed to give really consistent dmg, even over mirror ball.

I know the pros love their calamity, maybe its cause i'm a noob with her, but calamity seems to risk your positioning.

( I think the main reason i like that build is the sound when your seeker bonus goes off is so satisfying, and Fireflys gives it really good accuracy.)

If you win all 10 placement matches in ranked, what league do you end up in?
Great read: http://shorensteincenter.org/news-coverage-2016-general-election/ great book on democracy: http://press.princeton.edu/titles/10671.html zlefin is grumpier due to long term illness. Ignoring some users.

Roughly the same as you'd be with 10 losses. All the people I know who were ranks 1-5 ended Diamond 3 regardless of win/losses.
A low MMR friend of mine (like 1500 MMR, but is a bit better than that) won 8 and still got in silver.

I guess it helps the system estimating if they have to give you bonus points. But don't get your hopes high about a great placement if you weren't rank 1-5.

might be a stupid question, but my unranked play is locked... says 9/14 heros at level 1 (Cho'gall not included)

What is this? and how do I get rid of it? I have way more than 9 heros past level 1 so I have no idea what it means. Is there a specific 14 heros that need it?

You don't get rid of it. You need 14 level 5 heroes playable at any time to go into HL, free rotation included. The message probably says "at level 5". ;-)

Let's say you have all heroes unlocked and none level 5, you can't go to HL. Let's say you have 25 level 5 heroes but only 9 of these playable (free rotation + unlocked heroes) you cannot go into HL.

Because, let's say you're the last guy in draft. The other players used 4 bans on heroes you have, and picked the 5 others. You're stuck with no hero to play, which is impossible.

I'd also recommend you get 4 playable supports and 4 playable warriors before even entering HL.

It actually says level 1.

Its says what your saying for ranked games as level 5. But for Unranked it says level 1 exactly as I have shown it.

I think it might be because i dont have any heros unlocked beyond the free rotation or something.

I checked by logging in another region (you lose all your progress) and you're right it's indeed level 1 for unranked.

You need 14 playable heroes at level 1 (level 5 for HL). When you're on QM hero select screen, count 14 level 1 ungreyed heroes. You probably don't have these (Cho Gall doesn't count).
Again, going with 9 heroes in draft would hurt you and your team.

Do you guys remember when Estar, and Edward Gaming from China had a hard time trying to get visa's to come here to play at Blizzcon?

I was wondering, does the US allow some countries citizens to come more easily, based on their country of origin? For instance in SC2 or Heroes it never seems like the South Korean teams or even Europe players never have visa issues to come here.

But politically SK and USA get along much better than the US and China

Wondering cause my friend from originally from China is constantly having trouble with visa status here.

Anyway please don't do any research on my behalf, just wanted to see if anyone had any in sight on this matter. And wondered if it was a coincidence that Estar and Edward Gaming had similar troubles.
