The thing I have against zerg heroes is their lack of quotes and funny stuff to say. So yeah they look awesome but then you win and get the taunt: "RORARORRRHGH" its ...eh...kinda...

Anyway, Slith and Predator are potential candidates for zerg heroes (Assault and Guardian respectively...Hydra/Roach in that order).

Holy. CRAP. This... ... mmm uhh muhhh, I'm speechless. The amount of attention to the detail and everything is like jaw dropping. The addictiveness of the gameplay and the voice acting and everything makes it seem like a game of its own.

This looks totally awesome, but I'm on the LA server, so... any plans for uploading it over here? If it's of any use, I offer myself to upload it, if you explain me how to do it and properly give you credit XD

LA has a seperate server? I could've sworn it uploaded to LA automatically when you upload to US. But it uses a seperate popularity.

LA definitely has a separate server, check sc2ranks.com if you don't believe. Still, it may be true that if you upload it to NA, it's also automatically uploaded to LA. Nevertheless, if the popularity has a different counter, I'll probably have a hard time seeing it,. since there almost no people playing UMS here in LA. If it's difficult to find people even for Starjeweled which is Billzard-endorsed, go figure...

I'll check for it when I get home, I'm really looking forward to playing it.

Also saw this on TB, I can see this game climbing up the custom popularity so far. It's actually a fantastically well done game - like Street Fighter, WoW Arena (a tad), Smash Bros all mixed up.

Can someone explain to me why the rounds are called "Rebels"? Everytime the the round starts, the announcer shouts out "Rebel" and it just plain confuses me. >.<

It's a reference to the game the music comes from, as well as a lot of the visual inspiration, a fighting game called Blazblue which for some ridiculous reason calls Rounds Rebels. Arc System Works has a habit of doing stuff like that.

Mephs, which 3 heroes do you think work best together and suit your and your friends play-style at this point of time? I'm just curious what is your favorite trio and why?

Can't say there's any 3 "best", but there's a lot of good synergy comps. If I'm pubbing I wait for the other 2 players to pick and then I pick the best match to go with them.

Just picking a good comp won't carry you though, good players will still beat you even with a poorly composed team, so ti comes down to playing characters that not only synergize well, but also chars that you're good at.

There are soft counters, but no team can hard counter any other.

Just tried the map and it's so good. It feels really polished and professionally made.

Once it hits the 1st page it would get alot of more players, currently the wait time is sometimes quite long. (It's near the top of page 2 now!).

Only complaint is that its not really noob friendly. Played with a group of friends and lost like 8 matches in a row (maybe won 2 rounds in total). Losing sucks lol.

Yeah losing does suck, but once you start to figure things out you start winning more. There's no way to implement a matchmaking system, your best bet is to jump into the chat channel and form in-house noob games and stuff, all level of players are there usually.

the desert map sucks hard for hawk. I think you should make all maps balanced for all heroes
