The short answer is yes, nation of origin has a direct impact on the visa process.

There's a Visa Waiver program between the US and their closest allies. So Western Europe, Canada, Japan, SK, Australia, NZ, being the main ones. It means you can come to the US for 90 days without applying for a visa.

Not sure if that's only for tourist visas though (you'd need a business visa for eSports events). But coming from one of those countries will make getting a business visa easier too.

I just tried doing Versus A.I. with human allies (to quickly run through some Daily Quests), so put the opposing team on A.I. Beginner and searched for a game. Within 15 seconds the game had started, and this ended up being the team:

[image loading]

Not only was the opposing team not all Beginner A.I., but 3/5 of my team were A.I. also!? What the heck. Obviously left that game, but what gives? Since when does something like this happen? And the game started within 15 seconds, so it's not like the queue time became so ridiculous that I was eventually paired with computers just to play something.

Can anyone get Hotslogs to work with an adblocker on? I disabled for Hotslogs and it still is being a dick about it.

I don't get the opting for a nuclear option, I had to dust off IE to get to see a build for a hero I hadn't played for a bit which is whatever.

Bad move by Hotslogs imo.

I do see the site normally. Did they ban addblock users ?

We all use their site, adds bring them money, I see nothing wrong with bearing with adds to support the most useful tool for HotS. As a general rule, services like addblock hurt the free Internet.

DarkPlasmaBall > you had Sylvanas + 3 AI players. Push top lane with all of them and boss after keep = 5-6 minutes game (way less with humans). But yeah, that sucks, would piss me off too TBH.

edit: didn't want to sound like a lecturing dick too much, so I edited a bunch of my post. ^^

I get it, but they went relatively nuclear. Most sites will say please consider whitelisting us instead of a middle finger. I'm being indignant about it.

Of course, but I'm sure the site operator is indignant too =p. Since he's been doing this out of pocket for about 2 years now (and from my experience the ad revenue actually won't cover his server / hosting costs).

They did ask for quite a long time, every time you visited for about a month or more now it had a pop up asking you to whitelist them. Only maybe 10% did so they decided to block it for everyone who didn't white list. Or you can pay $10 a year to get rid of all ads.

I white listed them and it worked fine for me after.

Sounds like you had the AI allied team mates option checked. I don't know why it some times mixes higher level AI in when set to beginner level.

Maybe the other guy had adept selected?
Not sure if working as intended
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

I can confirm long wait times for AI games (long = like 40 secs of wait where before it was less than 5 secs). So maybe people leave, or maybe Blizzard puts AI players to fill ?

Strange though.

I'm trying to play a wider hero pool, focusing on assassin carries that are not Nova for reasons listed in the QQ thread.
I'm trying Sylvanas as I hate when my team takes her most of the time. ^^
I already played 5 or 6 QMs with her so I'll use her in HL from now.

I'm just wondering a few things as I want to play an aggressive Sylvanas:
- what is DPS Sylvanas, most of her talents are minion oriented (which is normal) and the "dagger" talents are very unsuccessful on hotslogs or not recommended by guides
- is using "haunted wave" at level 13 ("windrunner") to refresh "Q arrows" a good thing ? I've done it in fights where I was extra safe, seemed to work well, but the "Q arrows" DPS is very low. Used it to chase, fun times. And on merc camps when I knew I was safe. Is it good to use it like that ?

edit: Obviously Larkin I'd be happy to have a few advices from you and you're main Sylv master, but everyone's welcome.

My to-go Sylv build: www.heroesnexus.com

On maps with lots of camps, merc lord on 1 if you think you can solo splitpush is fine. Or big maps like cursed hollow where it takes longer for the enemy to rotate to deal with merc. (I love to push hard with the 2 min siege camp if tribute is spawning in opposite lane, and just ask team to delay)

L16 vuln on dagger is also alright.

The above build lets you solo camps, quick waveclear, do decent dps in teamfights.

Using haunted wave to reset your Q to dps is more than fine, you just have to learn when you can extend / chase with it without getting punished and when not.

Thanks for the advises and the build ! Lost my 1st HL game but we really played with a potato warrior and a potato healer ("oh they have a dive team ? I'll pick Morales then") so it doesn't count.

I've tried your build in QM, won, but didn't notice any critical AA after level 16 (it's the first time I use this talent). Is it supposed to trigger every time I use "Q" (if I manage to not spam it too fast) or any ability ?
I had the highest DPS all game until level 16 - 20 where I would fall behind the assassins and so. Almost every game goes like that. Is it normal, or is there something I miss late game ?

I build her the same way as Cephiro mostly, but I always take Cold Embrace (2sec Vuln). IMO it's to good to pass up on. Sometimes i try to go with Mind Control, like if we don't have enough dive for morales or sth.

The damage depends on the Assassins tbh. If they attack the enemy tanks a lot they'll likely have more damage than you ^^
As Syl you'll mostly be 2nd highest damage just behind the mages and before your average melee bruiser

I think I understand how to play her now thanks. Won my 2nd HL game on her, and really felt good. Thanks to you 2. :-)
I won with Mind Control because it's so much fun and allows for nice picks.
