NOOOOO Nothing wrong with a gazlowe first pick depending on the map. Also, I've carried so many games playing as gazlowe and we end up winning. Like if my team mates are slow and we're really behind, I'll just say fuck it, leave them to constantly fight 4v5. In the end the enemy team is leaving me to push to core easily and I always end up winning if they let me do that. It might sound toxic, but when I'm at 30k EXP and my team mates are at 12k still and your screen says VICTORY, it won't be toxic then. Issue with that though is when some one picks gazlowe first and doesn't even know what they're doing. | ||

Cursed hollow to zone out the tribute/ bosses, and Sky temple and Dragon shire to zone out the temples/ shrines? Maybe even Haunted mines to zone underground? And I guess now Towers of doom to zone out the altars? Annnd Battlefield of eternity to solo the enemy angel while your team defends your angel 4v5? (Sounds like he could be pretty useful in over half the maps that require zoning for objectives...) | ||

Still super close, and we even rushed core to 4% in the last one before losing. What is up with guys insisting on off-meta and situational heroes? The only reason the games were close was that guys on the other teams did the same thing... nova, tass solo supp, anub solo tank etc. Why is it so hard to get matched with 5 ppl who pick smth for the team?? There are always 1-2 guys in there screwing it up, making it very difficult for the rest... I guess my own HL-ready pool is not the greatest, but I am at least honest about it, and the heroes I know are genericly good and easy to build around! | ||

I've had good games with Gazlowes in really wonky comps and he can do work, but at Rank 20 and with all of the people I see to fail to be competent at easier heroes I have to more or less dismay at what these people may wind up doing with Gazlowe.  I lost a game yesterday against a team with no fucking warrior. God damn you, Arthas. | ||

Losing against a team with no warrior just means that you must of fought on a map that is heavily favored for team fights/high dmg | ||

EDIT: It was Cursed Hollow | ||

I calm everyone in the lobby, try to ultra positive although it's probably a lost cause. So we can play. Of course we lose, the 2 other guys go for Falstad / Brightwing which is awesome. The problem is me and my friend picked Illidan (for Abathur) and ETC. And those 4 don't work well together at all. BW can't heal Illidan, Fals can't take advantage of Mosh Pit, neither can Illidan. My pal makes a 4 man Mosh Pit, no death on them... Previous game I manage a 5 man pogo with ETC, no deaths again (our Raynor was dead but that's all). WTF this week is really bad for me. edit: Also, WTF with MMR these days ? If I check my last 10 or so losses, all of them had people with same MMR as me, losing like 100 points for the defeat sometimes. These are people who shouldn't be here in the first place. Today I lose 10 points I one game, Zagara loses 132 and Raynor 51. Why do I even have to play with them... Or we lose, and 2 guys in the opposite team get 108 and 160 bonus. They didn't belong here, thanks for the uneven game. | ||

Obviously with little games played your MMR makes huges jumps Shouldn't make impacts on HL though, maybe there is sth else going on | ||

One QM this week-end with my smurf account, we have a balanced team and the opponents have 3 warriors no heal. I type before game starts "They have a bad team but be careful it may be hard to get some kills". Sylvanas outright insults me "you know nothing they have a good team" "noob" "go play lol" ... Of course we crushed them very hard. Yay toxicity, had to mute a guy who's like rank 40 after 30 secs of QM. Same smurf account, play HL. Everyone plays well but Gazlowe (of course) who plays like he's vs AI. Solo push with no map control, engage 1v4, skip all obj. I swear the guy was even worse than AI. So I ask him, politely but not nicely, to participate, react to pings and so on. "Guys don't be rude this is a game, it's for fun". I reply "Yeah and you spoil 4 people's fun"... I don't care it's my smurf account and I haven't finished placement, but everyone's efforts got ruined because of him. The other guys reported him, which is even more stupid. He didn't feed, didn't insult, didn't went AFK. He just sucked, you can't report people for sucking. You can just hope he's in the other team next game. | ||

You can just hope he's in the other team next game. I think it falls under the AFK/Non-participation category. He isn't participating by splitpushing all game, and consequently the report is justified, imo. - On another note, I managed to win a HL game today when we had a last pick of Nazeebo, leaving us without support. Thank god I took ETC and could go groupies. | ||
