That's worse than me ! ;-)
I went from Diamond 5 to Plat 4 with a positive winrate, because of these !
Now I'm winning them again so I'm on my way to Diamond 5 (so that my 3 accounts are Diamond this season).
Motherfox > I think a few heroes tend to lead to this behavior. Gazlowe is one, but Zeratul is the one I encoutered the most. And of course, Nova, from what we can read everywhere.
Oh by the way, she's in every fucking QM right now, always in the other team. While that's good training to play vs cloakies, it's getting very annoying. I should solo queue as Khara to troll the Novas.
|
Nova is an interesting QM issue. I've been working a smurf up in QM, and it is actually very easy to carry a team of noobs *generally*, even while I am playing gazlowe every game. But if the enemy team has a nova, I know it will be difficult. It just isn't that hard to play nova against new players who are out of position all the time. I suspect this is one of the reasons she is an early favorite hero of many.
Kind of the opposite of a QQ--- but speaking of that gazlowe smurf account, I had a rather ego-boosting moment a week ago when a li-ming with the name "papasmurf" was on the other team on dragonshire. Our team early on said "watch out this li-ming is a smurf, he's really good". I said with confidence "don't worry, I'm a smurf too". Proceeded to play a dumb flanking-style gazlowe with full combo
gravbomb the stupid li-ming every fight when she popped off disintegrate and we won by a landslide. She also had way too much confidence--- tried to gank me in mid when I had about ten turrets set up in a massive network. She died soooo fast loool.

Sigh. Come back after a while with a friend. Wants to play Cho'Gall. Sure why not.

How do you manage to die that many times guys?
And how does Azmo manage to get the lowest siege damage of all heroes (he went full beam build).

I'm not even particularly mad, but I am confused
Is Sylvanas bad or something? This dude was just like flat out, "Dont pick Sylvanas. We need assassins. Good ones." When our first pick was going to go Sylv or KT.
Sylv is still really good right? I'm not missing something?
EDIT: I dunno what league Im in but these people have no idea what they're doing. :/
|
She's a pretty solid first pick on Shrines, BoE and Tomb. Other than that she can fill pretty much most compositions later on in the draft and has value on pretty much every map.
I'd wager most people are against her because she has the specialist tag and consequently bad players see her as a split pusher. Which is wrong. She's a ranged dps. An extremely aggressive, frontline ranged dps if you're me with Windrunner...
|
I think it is just the Specialist tag, and now Im down three games because I must be in like Silver, and I play Tank. 
|
After reading a lot about Sylv here, and asking for help in the other thread, I started take her as my go-to ranged DPS (when I cannot take Nova without being destroyed by my team) and she's very good, and works on every map, with every team, unless you cannot afford a squishy. Picture her as a more aggressive Valla, without the tank busting, with 2 game winning ultimates and a game winning trait if you get 1 boss.
I got a superb free loss on Shrines yesterday. A guy 1st picks Rexxar, and he wouldn't talk in draft to help us build the team ("I solo tank", "I need a bruiser", "I'll split all game"...) . So we get a tank because Thrall bosses everyone in draft (which was bad IMO, we needed more like a bruiser). Rexxar sucked except in fights, because our retards opponent would focus Misha all the time. He didn't solo camps, he couldn't stay alive in lanes... I don't know why he picked Rexxar at all.
After the game I talked with Thrall, I wanted to tell him how us 2 had to carry the team (he was good) instead of insulting the idiots like he did. Then he says "Noooo! I'm with the retard again, he's 1st picking Gazlowe!". I'm glad I waited to launch a new game.
Some people just should PVE all day in QM or AI.
Yesterday evening, I just had time to launch 1 QM. Illidan disconnects the first minute, never comes back. Kerrigan disconnects after 8 minutes, never comes back. Hammer wants us to surrender so he sits in core pinging the 2 bots so that they stay with him, when I try to ping them he insta get them back. Well, I have other things to manage than pinging bots, and he only has this to do so he wins the pinging game.
That infuriated me. Forcing 2 bots to stay in core just to make your 2 allies surrender even though they don't want to. Reported that guy although I only wanted to report the leavers.
|
God all fucking mighty, can I get a team that isn't actively retarded, I'm trying real hard to be positive but when people focus Dehaka with Morales beam on him ALL FUCKIN' GAME I get really irritated.
Fuck this, I'm playing Raynor exclusively.
EDIT: Two games after, I've played once as Raynor and am roped into playing Anub because I KNOW they'll all get oneshot by Chromie all game long if I dont soak her skillshots
Lol, I think this is Silver League. People here are nuts
Cockiest terrible Sonya of all time

I ACTUALLY got 100 - 0'ed by Chromie in an instant, how is that allowed to be a part of the game.
It actively makes Battlefield of Eternity compete with Towers of Doom for Maps I Like The Least.
EDIT: Its some Pre-Nerf Li Ming quality bullshit

cuz Chromie can't reliably land her entire combo (unless maphacking vs hammer) without loop that can be cleansed out

Hero Damage Auriel: 21k
Hero Damage Lunara: 23k
Lunara blaming Auriel all game for having no heal ? Fucking joke. Auriel healed poorly, but if you have as much DPS as Lunara as your healer, you clearly shall not play Lunara.
Oh, and I lost a game vs 4 assassins 1 healer. Everyone laughed in draft, so when the game began they didn't understand they had to play safe because of the opponent's insane DPS. Lili didn't realize she wasn't a warrior until it was way too late. KT died 9 times because he sucked of course, but especially because Johanna was always soloing camps (I asked her not to a few times, got insulted).
I beg them to just play safe and play their roles (Lili healer, Johanna protect her people, KT keep dying like an idiot but at least have some DPS) but no. It's more fun to be in their backline as Johanna and Sonya while Illidan + Thrall murder your backline.
We lost to a fucking no warrior team and I couldn't do anything. I was Sylvanas, they wouldn't let me rotate 2 lanes until 8 minutes in (I was asking for the 3rd time...) and it was already level 10 vs 8.
That one hurt. A lot.

You can cleanse Loop of Bullshit?
Thank you, this is good to know

the cleanse needs to land so that it is in effect when the loop would trigger. (if you cleanse too early it will have no effect)

How long was the game? you can reasonably get like 3-4k hero damage in the early laning phase with no effort at all as lunara.

5 games, 5 losses, 2 of them for the very same reason:
Tychus decides to feed intentionally and runs straight into the enemy team whenever he respawns. Same player in both games, reported him every time.
Demoted to D3 -.-

You can also just stun chromie while she's waiting to land the combo (or just like hard engage on them etc)
there's a reason she's not that competitive

If I see a Chromie picked I always try to go for Sonya 
You can 100-0 Chromie pretty easy with her, specially if you go Leap (which I love <3)

A bit short but not THAT short I'd say, 16 minutes according to hotslogs. Thrall had 50 k damage without feeding, so you can expect Lunara to out DPS your own healer. ^^

Honestly if I can convince the draft I'd be down for Medivh + Sonya to truly just wreck Chromie's life forever

Had a Chromie in HL who ignored the fact the enemy team had a Nova and Li-Ming and happily frolicked about whilst at half health or less. Nova had a field day. Chrome also had no idea how to use Temporal Loop. She'd cast it on an enemy hero and that was that. The timer would hit zero, the target would be brought back and then no follow-up at all from her.
Why pick the damn thing if you don't know how to use it? In HL no less. Just pick the other ult and slow the enemy team.
Also had a suicidal Sonya in the same game who thought she could 1v5 the enemy team with Whirlwind.
She had first pick on Infernal Shrines and I suggested Sylvanas or possibly even Kerrigan or at the very least something with a little AoE damage like KT or a tank like Johanna (which I ended up picking). Never said a word and just silently chose Sonya. That in itself isn't bad (Whirlwind is decent on the shrines) but this Sonya was. Over 10 deaths. Ugh.
