I'm just a platinum player (so really bad) and I agree with him.

At first I was mad hype when I got LotV beta, but I much prefer HotS' pace.

There's good micro and bad micro. Good micro is something like you see Protoss do in SC1 with Dragoons, Zealots, Storm and Reavers and what not. Bad micro is the C&C3/RA3 mantra of ADD MORE SKILLS!

An RTS is not a moba. Active skills are not good for RTS games IMO.

While we're talking about MOBAs, there's one thing canata said I disagree with:

하스스톤도, 히어로즈 오브 더 스톰도 간단하고 쉬운 조작을 바탕으로 깊이 있는 전략과 전술로 팬들을 끌어들었다.

Heartstone and Heroes of the Storm have been gathering many fans due to the deep tactics and strategies based on easy controls.


LOL, Heroes of the Storm is the fastest blizzard fail I've seen. Out of Top10 most played in Korean PCBang, not even lasting one month. Despite a huge marketing campaign and even nationwide free PCBang event for HoTS.

Do I have to do something myself? Because I'm not that good at actually doing something. But I'm pretty good at letting others do work that I was supposed to do!

While I disagree on Heroes being a fail at all, I admit that DK and Bowder should be fired as soon as possible. They fuck up what they touch with the "ideas we found very cool" and "players will adapt to".

I don't think that there's anything inherently bad about active skills. They just have to be interesting and fun, have high skill ceiling, etc.

Active skills need to be reserved for a few designated spellcasters. The rest of the units need to have very few of them.

That really depends on the nature of the active skills. Skills like Siege Mode, Cloaking and Stimpacks are fine in my opinion. They are not quite active skills and more like additional behavior / alternate forms of the unit. But active skills that are "actually active", with that I mean skills where you have to think whether you should use them or not and if yes then on what target, these should be limited to 2 - 3 spellcasters per race.

The typical "bad active skill" for me is the void ray ability.

Lotv is actually fun and it knows what it's trying to be
a very difficult, yet entertaining game that rewards those who out multi task their opponent
and for once, rewards those who are simply richer than their opponents. I like that

The casual gamer would rather learn this game than HOTS, because not only is it more interactive, but the increased amount of unit abilities and the early games increase in speed and tactics makes it infinitely more FUN (Yes, I'm sure you haven't heard that word in awhile.)

I know fun and starcraft don't get along, but I've been watching this game and playing it, albeit not very much, for about 5 years. it's my main source of entertainment online and I know what it needs.

It needs to be an enjoyable experience that doesn't feel like a second job. Lotv is on it's way to actually achieving that. Wol was terrible, HOTS made me stop playing and finally LOTV is giving me hope.
I'm super fucking excited for this game, and you should be too.

Just because you can't macro past your 7 gate doesn't mean lotv is a bad game, and yes I know what it needs, I've made this game a pretty big part of my gaming life and have watched almost every major for 6 years. I would appreciate if you didn't hassle me with such shite posts, we might actually get somewhere as a community.

Oh, and "over CONFIDENCE," and if you're looking for a more respectful post in response to this garbage you might as well label me a narcissist now and not keep your hopes up, Good day.


EDIT: I decided to edit in the part where I don't understand why you're attacking me at all, just because I'm better than you as a person doesn't mean I'm looking to set myself apart from anyone, moron.This is a gaming community where smart (or at least I thought) people come together and discuss their thoughts, not everything is a competition.
