Heroes of the Storm - Blizzard MOBA

Yep, I'm not expecting it to be high on the list. Just gieb Reinhardt.

I just want Hamston and Moira and will be happy.

Btw, are we missing any big player in SC? Because after Fenix i feel the SC roster is pretty much done.

They must spawn more Overlords.

...but really, I do suppose most of the series' air units haven't made an appearance. Just Mutalisks on Zagara as well as Battlecruisers and Banshees on Jimmy.

They wanna go crazy again, make an always flying hero that's even squishier than Tracer! I don't think they'd be up to that though, balancing that would be a herculean task.

Also Zerg Guardians on Braxis.

In other news I just played the Vikings for the first time in two years and I'm just as bad at them as I remember.

They're probably also worse since then too anyway.

At least the introduction of XP Orbs didn't gut their split soak style like it did with Abathur.

At this point I kinda want them to rework Abathur and completely drop his split pushing play-style, it never really fitted his character anyway and has too much overlap with Zagara.

Instead focus and expand on his Mission Control Evilutionary Biologist fantasy:

• Change his playstyle to dynamically adapting his allies on the fly
• Change his abilities to something akin to Invoker from Dota 2 where he can combine three components into various augments
  • Endurance/Attack/Speed
    • EEE = his current shield
    • AAA = his current spikes but a locust shoots them automatically to the closest enemy
    • SSS = a sprint (comparable to the one you can already skill for your shield)
    • AAS = an Attack speed buff (comparable to the passive one you can already skill for your hat)
    • AAE = a "stun on next attack" buff
    • EEA = a "lifesteal" buff
    • EES = a "short unstoppable" buff - minor
    • SSE = causes the target to leap ahead (think Force Staff from Dota 2)
    • SSA = a "slow on next attack" buff
    • ASE = his current mines
      • Abathur now has three resources, one for each keyword, if you use too many of a single category you will have downtimes but if you adapt to the ebb-and-flow of battle you will rotate between offense-defense and mobility seamless.
  • His ultimates get reworked too
    • Ultimate Evolution will become a "Build-a-Champ" sort of ability were you feed a morphling with the abilities of 3 other allied heroes. This is done through a new UI accessed by pressing a bonus-ability (or whatever you call the abilities bound to 1-9) were you get a table with three columns representing Q-W-E with your allies kits laid out in the rows, you can then select and pre-build the hero which is spawned by the next R.
      • Level 20: "Assimilation" Adds enemy heroes to the selection
    • His second Ultimate instead emphasizes his Mission Control status by reducing the CD of his augments and boosting his resource regeneration.
      • Level 20:"Hivemind" causes his augments to affect all allies.

...

or something like that.

So was anyone looking for old memes

HEY, UPCOMING HOTS CONTENT, SERIOUSLY

Is it really a leak if it's posted on blizzard.com though?

Not really, no. They just thought it'd be a funny title.

Tassadar no longer support and can't press E to not die, towers forts and cores are different and hate you hitting friendly heroes like in other MOBAs, talent builds can be set in-game, and crystalline edgy skins

The loss of Phase Shift is a big hit to Tassadar. You have to be extra careful now because he is rather squishy and his Q roots you in place for two seconds, so if you miss you're a sitting duck.

Why would they give a support a shift that makes them immune? It sounds ridiculous.

Anyway, add Moira from Overwatch

Uni cat

Tracer rework, Artanis, Deckard, Brightwing, Tassadar, Orphea changes, Deathwing nerfs, and...

I HATE IIIIIITTTTTTTTTT

Well, I hope you hate dying slowly while slowed because the next hero is definitely Mei.

Finally, another demon!

I probably the only person that doesn't mind an OW hero but Mei isn't exactly beloved for what she does.

WHERE IS REINHARDT BLIZZARD? WHY ARE YOU AFRAID OF HIS MAGNIFICENCE

Uni cat

Plz Blizz let us amuse everyone in the game by click in opposite directions to move our directional shield around really fast and also gieb new tank ;_;

The unnoficial fourth prime evil makes her grand debut

It's really interesting what they've done with her because her kit is way different from the one in OW. For starters, she is a tank and more focused on crowd control than slowing enemies and killing them with pure sadism.

She still has some of her abilities from OW but inverted. Blizzard is a basic ability while icewall has been made an ult. I guess in order to differentiate her from Tassadar and Jaina.

Really cool concept overall (no pun intended)

*Loudly crying* "I MISS YOU SO MUCH KEVIN!"

...I completely support this. Paladins has a character with a wall and can slow much like Overwatch's Mei, but had the focus of being a tank (said slow is a deployable object always placed right at her feet instead) which I felt was a better focus than Mei's mostly-just-a-bunch-of-dickery to her enemies.

Yo is that Hogger?

Uni cat

FOREST JUST SETBACK!

*Drowns in naked gnome raiders*

Hogger + Taz = A greater threat than Deathwing

You may now perform your best Taz impressions

(here's an example)

Whoa has it been that long since I posted in here

Well the game's not getting more content and

with this, now you don't need to play it all
