    Favorite Hero

    Who is your favorite hero so far and what about the hero makes him your favorite? As of now my four favorites are Azmodan, Zeratul, Zagara and Rehgar. I enjoy playing these four the most so far.

    Rehgar, although that is not entirely surprising since I main Shaman in WoW. I am slightly confused as to why they didn't choose Thrall to represent the shaman in heroes though, surely he's more recognisable.

    Tassadar, hands down. He was the character I was going to play since day one and having been playing since. Tassadar is and will always be my main, but I also like Diablo, Valla, and Nazeebo a lot, too.

    Zagara, everyone underestimates her burst and her ability to merc AND offer team fight burst is unrivaled imho. Gazlowe has the grav + bomb combo which is strong too, but between nydus everywhere for split push and merc domination and her double hunter killer on a target she really shines. Only negatives are lack of mercenary lord (Which would probably be OP if she had) and her low health pool making her an easy target.

    A lot of people play Zagara poorly, but a good Zagara can really dominate.

    Brightwing. I have just done wonderful things with her and whenever I play her I just feel like I am on cloud nine, the teleport is just awesome, the knocback can be gaming breaking(the merc steals!), you can 1v1 dps if you do it right, you are godly in teams fights and very hard to kill.

    Abathur is second on my list, he is just so different than any other hero. You have to have to have knowledge of every hero and the whole map and every single thing going on and at a moments notice you need to stop what you are going and symbi someone else. You are support, you are the kill securer, you are the defense, you are the eyes, you are the tide turner, hell you can even be the jungler. Your uptime is so godly being able to be almost anywhere. While his damage is poor the uptime makes up for it. With his ulitmate you can win fights depending if you pick the right hero. Should you be the tank? The support? The damage dealer? With you ulitmate you can even save your teamates that are trying to run away by using it and distracting the enemies trying to kill you while they are safe and sound. He is one of the most underrated and miss used out of any of the heroes.

    I'm sure Thrall will be used as well...maybe more of an assasin or spec.

    Depends on what you make the criteria for "Favorite"

    By playstyle: Stitches. I won about 97% of my games as stitches because I know his build and playstyle very well. I am usually pissed if I cant get a HOTS killstreak with him every game. I also think I was one of the first to get master skin with him, obv cant confirm that though.

    By pure character: Illidan most likely. The whole glaves of azzinoth thing. I play him dec, but he is quite difficult to master; I have only seen 1 illidan who truly mastered his playstyle, and damn he was good.

    By "coolness" or interesting playstyle: Id say Lili. I like her playstyle and how interestingly many ways I can build her depending on my and the opponant's comp. I find myself flipping talents from a game-by-game basis depending on the maps and many other factors.

    Also interestingly enough all of these chars are all wow chars. What can I say I love wow haha. A non based wow char that's not bad though is Abathur and Tychus.

    ETC so far for me.
    He's pretty fun because not only is he decently tanky, but he's good at just getting away in general with sliding and knockbacks.

    Abathur, i love how he controls everything from the shadows.

    Tassadar and Tyrael were my most played heros before the wipe so I guess them. I did enjoy Lili a lot before the nerfs as well.

    I got my hands on Anub'arak last night and OH MY GOD! It's like a whole new game!

    Azmodan! Loved him in D3, love him even more in HotS.

    I am the one that makes You cry.

    Zeratul is my hero.


    I am a menace to my own destiny.

    And there's nothing more broken than Nova

    My favourites are Tyrande and Rehgar, hard to pick either since I play both equally really. I really want to try Azmodan, but he's so expensive

    please explain "broken". Insane burst+zero survival seems fair to me. Kinda need to think about openers and retreats =)

    Perma-invis, insane burst, can literally 2shot almost everything. Yeah, dodging her Q makes her vulnerable, but she has a slow to make it easier to hit you. Ofcourse you can get killed easily, if you go against multiple enemies without backup, but 1v1 or even 1v2 is so easy as Nova. I've been on both sides, when I play Nova I feel bad for my enemies, if I'm against Nova I really don't want to go out of turret range.
