Playing against her feels like playing against Zeratul if he had a ranged attack and blink had half the cool down and no mana. | ||

I like to chase when I'm uncertain of the result because I don't know the game perfectly and I don't know if something is possible until I try. Too many times I've watched someone else go for something thinking they're making a mistake, and then they succeed (and not due to opponent error), and I'm just like "Wow, I know nothing." So I like seeing what's possible. And some people are actually the opposite. They habitually do not chase and do not go for kills and do not do anything that seems risky at all, even though it's plausible, and so they're actually completely ignorant when it comes to making judgment calls, having gathered no experience themselves about the options, and yet they then speak the loudest about what the right call is. Really frustrating. I don't want notes on my play from someone who has settled for being mediocre. "Never chase" is not a bad advice. Most average/bad players should follow this advice until they get better and actually understand when to chase. There are times when you really shouldn't chase. - The teamfight is still up ? Don't chase. To get that 1 kill you may have your whole team killed because of you. - You don't know where your opponents are and want to chase that Rehgar / Lili in the middle of the map ? Go and give them a free kill. - It's early / mid game and you have an objective to do ? Don't chase unless your team can secure the objective without you. I prefer securing 15 sky temple shots than wasting 40 secs getting 1 kill when the guy comes back after 30 secs or so. If chasing is better for the team, not for your enjoyment / takedown stats, go for it. And that comes from a Nova main. ^^ | ||

You often just waist precious time where you could have gotten things done like soaking that crucial exp for a talent/ get a boss/ push down a fort or keep/ get objective. I wanted to highlight this one again: - The teamfight is still up ? Don't chase. To get that 1 kill you may have your whole team killed because of you. Happens to freaking often. Mostly it's Muradin chasing someone while all squishys get wiped or Rehgar | ||

Just give us mirror teams. Not solo warrior versus double warrior, or no healer 1 warrior versus warrior Illidan Abathur. | ||

He's still pretty easy to kill before 7, and his real tankiness doesn't come online until 13 (particularly against ability damage-heavy comps). I'd say that he's in a good spot overall right now. | ||

edit: case in point: unranked guy gets captain, last picks malfurion after tyrande in a TLV team. I carried this game out on Vikings too, but then they all decided to defend terror ahead of their base, got caught in 3 man mosh and lost the game in 10s. nice | ||

Ej_ > Nydus Zagara is everywhere in QM. And of course they don't use it well, always die and in the end push even less than a Maw Zagara. | ||

Our healer was a rank 2, 2700mmr that griefed the entire game. | ||

1st game, our last pick is selecting Thrall but we need a healer and the other team just banned him, and then he selects EVERY SINGLE HEALER and all show with an exclamation mark, meaning he cannot play them (levels too low). So he goes for Nazeebo. We have a noob Illidan, a feeding Jaina, a bad Nazeebo, and me (Nova) and my friend (Diablo) to carry. We win this even without healer, because the other team was all noobs. Didn't play with and vs such noobs in a long time in HL. 2nd game, the muted guy is on their team, so i'm confident. I get 2 muted guys: muted Jo, muted Asmo who never joins and yolo on lane ALL GAME. Feeding Russian Jaina (5 death in 5 minutes, ends at 10 death), AFK Jo after a 12 minutes because who cares about comebacks. I manage a beautiful boss steal with Falstad without dying. But then they steal our boss because why help on boss when you can waste time in the lane near it. I mean, this was beyond carry. They did pick Nova (the guy who did was on my team prev game so obviously he wouldn't let me have her). Blizzard: 2 or 3 quick fixes: don't allow more than 1 muted guy on 1 team. Make real punishments for people who are muted and still get a shitload of reports. Don't allow in HL someone who doesn't have 4 playable healers, or 4 playable warriors. Simple. edit: and fucking fix the bug where muted people don't show up as muted at all on draft, be them on our team or on the other team. This is important. I think it's an Europe only bug. | ||
