I can't think of the word used to describe a 1v1 fight between two famous typically older fighters like boxing or ufc or starcraft.... who are fighting not to move up in division or rank but just for money and fame..... it's like.... imagine bruce buffer's voice... Welcome to the 2015 __________ invitational/match/showmatch between famous fighter A and famous fighter B


what goes in the blank i cant think of it and its driving me nuts

what are you supposed to do with TLV when you don't split push?
I've been having a blast multitasking and soaking all lanes with vikings, but I've lost every game since we lost all teamfights and camps... Should I just group them together when my team reaches lvl 10 first and force a team fight? Honestly I have no idea how to capitalize on the experience lead with them, I can't do shit vs other heroes .

My understanding is the whole idea behind the vikings is the ability of 1 player to soak all 3 lanes while the rest roam and gank. The idea is to be a few levels ahead for each teamfight, and already grouped up. Solid engagements (particularly after power spikes 9/10, 19/20, some talent-specific spikes) mean that you win objectives and take the game.

It's really important for your team to communicate with you when they want to initiate a team fight, so that you have enough time to bring Vikings to help. (Similarly, you should be checking your team too.) I like to keep Olaf in the middle lane of any big maps, since he's the slowest and I want to make sure he can reach a fight/ objective in time if need be.

Split lane until 10 with Vikings. Then start keeping them together and run with your team like you would a normal hero.

Does Anub'arak actually say "Kinky" whenever I command him?

Okay follow up question: Why?

I don't know anything about his backstory/ the WC universe. Is it the kind of thing his character would normally say? It just seems kind of odd.

Because they're mixing him up with the other giant undead beetle from Naxxramas:

He said it when commanded in WC3. So yes, it's in character.

Oh, you're right:

I guess Anub'rekhan was just a more extreme play off that one line.

Do shield abilities such as Storm Shield, Protective shield etc. count in your healing score? Do they only count if the hero you cast it on takes damage?

Is it possible to disjoint triple tap using void prison in between Nova and the target? Or if void prison is cast om the taget?

For those wondering: The answer is no if you (Zeratul) is the target.

Shields count as healing, not sure if you they need to actually get used to count though, but I would guess not.

Self-healing abilities however like life-steal or ETC's guitar solo do not count for healing.

I have a simple question but maybe a bit more high level than the thread is focused towards.

My supports I am extremely comfortable playing are Brightwing, Lili, Malfurion and Uther. However I struggle with selection of when to use them. In general I just play Brightwing unless he is selected by the other team and if that happens I generally fall back onto Uther or Lili. Generally I pick Lili against teams which lack burst and Uther against teams with a lockdown/burst/wombo focus. But I don't really know when to draw the Malfurion out into hero league. Does anyone have a tldr for when the four above heroes are solid fits into a composition as either a compliment or a counter play?
