Brightwing frustrates me to play as if only because I seem to play with people who don't react to polymorphed targets. Probably better with her/him/it than Uther though.

How does Anyone get into hero League? Even though I'm rank 800 or so in raw experience, A lot of that experience came from QM trying to grind up heroes.

Though having become annoyed with 5 assassin QM, and crap drafts in Unranked. Given i'm more ok with that in unranked cause thats kind of what its for is for practice. I thought i'd really give it a go with Hero League.

Though my experience playing the last few weeks, have just been frustrating. Theres always one derp Split push main, who takes a specialist. Sure if they were crafty and map aware even a split pusher could provide good value on a fair amount of maps. Though When these people insta highlight their specialist of choice that its is NEVER the case.

Another thing i see a lot is people not knowing which hero's would be mutually exclusive in a standard comp. So you get a frontline of Dehakka, and Sonya.

One game was completely thrown, due to last picking abathur when we had no healer in the comp.

Also I dislike that you don't get any credit for playing well on a loosing team. Makes me want to ladder on SC2 again, at least its 100 percent my fault....i get kind of irked with games before thrown before they are played.

Anyone have any tips for raising my MRR? I bet it could be quite fun if i could get my rank high enough to where people have a general understanding of Meta and Drafting. Where does that occur btw? Not the case in Gold 1.

What talent do people take at 4 for Artanis? I'm fairly certain it should be one of the shield talents, but I can't really decide which is the more appealing.

Simple Question: Is Chen still viable? I mean since his release pretty much every hero has an incredible amount of stun, silence and whatnot. I feel they have to redo him and give him unstoppable for the first 2 seconds of drinking or sth

He's a quasi-Illidan. Considerable lane bully that punishes no CC and weak backline. You definitely can play him in some setups.

He's a typical last-pick hero IMO. If you see the enemy has no direct counters, you can lock him and wreck the solo lane, and destroy their backlines in teamfights. He certainly has his place to shine.

No, she just has a smaller model so she makes less of a shimmer making her harder to spot.

Does anyone know what to do in this situation?

I've picked Sgt. Hammer in Quickmatch, and the opposing team has Chromie. She follows me to whatever lane I go to.

I managed to salvage a win thanks to some awesome teammates, but that matchup just feels so lopsided. How do I talent/act to not get blown up nonstop?

Never siege. Hammer does decent damage unsieged

Her autoattack dmg vs heroes is the same sieged or unsieged. Her unsieged range (6.5 IIRC) is more than long enough to trigger her trait. Lots of people don't seem to realise that.

I usually take Advanced Artillery, but I guess in this situation I should probably have taken Regeneration Master and never sieged. Thanks!

No, advanced artillery is great IMO for poking purposes,(though there is an argument for regen master). But as I said, it still works fine if you fire auto attacks from near max range in unsieged mode. AA increases Hammer's trait from 30% dmg to 40% dmg for everything over a range of 4. Hammer's unsieged auto attack range is 6.5. So you don't need to siege to get use out of it.

Playing support, does Samuro warrant taking detection? Against the 'permanent' stealthers, I almost always take it; against him, I try to get away without. (Gold 5, i.e. I suck, the people on my team suck, the people on the other team suck.)

What kind of detection? The only supports I can think of specing into reveal talents are Kharazim and BW. It's almost always worth it on BW, but I'd argue that the block spirit is way too good, esp. vs a pure autoattack hero like Samuro.
