    Holy fuck some people are so stupid. Rather than pushing core as 5 with the punisher when they have 2 dead our leoric decides to go defend and we then wipe with the core at 66% the enemy team rushes our core kills leoric and wins. What did he hope to achieve? We had been behind the whole game and that was our one chance. He said we would have lost if he didn't defend... well guess what dick head WE LOST ANYWAY. Some people are so stupid.

    You won't believe how many games i won because enemy team thought that it's a good idea to go fight 5v3 under our core while their base is being pushed by catapults... defending your base should be a priority over risky core pushes. Considering that 20+ minute punisher should finish the core by himself (or put in dangerously low, unless enemy has Johana or other blinds to tank it), and pre-20minute base race is VERY risky business... I would say, that with given information, Leoric made the right call.

    You should just defend, push back, get control over battlefield (and merc camps) grab talent advantage and finish it with next push.

    I understand your point but it was too late in the game for that. They had a keep left on that Lane we had no keeps left so as soon as we lost a team fight that was it we were done for, they would rush and win no matter what. This was our first chance at attacking the core and both teams were 20+

    This late into the game it's too much of an advantage to have a keep alive. 6 catapults will demolish your core way faster than 5+punisher vs 3 , so i still think that leaving punisher to dispatch the keep while you defend and get map coverage would be a better call, unless enemy have really strong specialists like Zagara, Murky or Azmo who cal just /lol wreck your core while you fight enemy. As long as you push the lanes away (and make sure that catapults are dead) and keep control over the battlefield enemy just can't "rush and win". That's granted you are at the same skill level, hero level and no cheesy specialists mentioned above (one game we won by me dropped Probius' permanent null gate sneaky enough for enemy to not notice and it just ate away enemy core while they were busy fighting us).

    Don't take this as an insult or a blame i just want to highlight that game is seen differently by players, you may miss something, others may notice it or vice-versa, coming to different conclusions about current situation, that's why communication is very important, i would say that it's even more important than in other similar games.

    And the most satisfying victory is when enemy chips away your core wile all your team members are dead, but 6 catapults + 4 siege mercs just blast away enemy core in a matter of seconds.

    Hate it, fucking hate it when a Stitches - or Diablo - has OCD and has to press a button just b/c it's there. Four man retreat. Stitches already furthest away and the only one with significant health left. What does he do? Riiiight, pull the opponent's healthy Muradin in, who proceeds to slaughter the three of us while Stitches gets away.

    Dude I feel you

    A couple days ago I watched our Diablo flip the opposing Leoric right on top of our Jaina, saving him from the RoF she'd just put under him. Leoric beat the hell out of Jaina as she ran the hell away, and she had a clean getaway right until Diablo charged Leoric directly on top of her.

    -.-

    Pulled off the greatest Artanis pick in my playing career tonight

    Stealthed Nova, through a vent on WHJ. Q'd in, fired blindly into the fog of war at where I expected she'd run to, and got the bitch

    Played 4 unrankeds today. 2 lost and 2 won.

    1 lost because no one focused actually Nova, so all of team anyway was feeded enemy team, even if most of team fights we had won.

    2 lost because everyone went thier own way so again feeding time.

    1 win was actually unexpected, because someone picked lost vikings and murky, so they feed us much well. Allthough the only supp we got, was Tassadar so no healing.

    2 win was actually easier than 1 since most of team fights we had won, and actually Garrosh did good job with wrecking ball.

    So yeah, not bad.

    You don't need healing when you can blow fools up fast. Level 20 cleaving archon is worth struggling for 20 minutes of no healing

    Cursed Hollow:

    Their team: Dehaka, Brightwing, Chromie, Greymane, Azmodan

    Our team: Lili, Diablo, Jaina, Zul'jin, Illidan (me).

    So we're 2/3 tributes, we manage to get a pick on Brightwing and Dehaka top lane, just as they die the tribute timer starts, i'm going "fuck yes we just won this" and leg it towards our boss telling the rest of our team to contest the tribute on their side of the map.
    And so they run for the tribute, the moment diablo starts channeling it and Chromie/Greymane shows up however, Lili fucks off, running towards me (in a very obvious manner) we lose the tribute, dehaka bushwookies after lili who leads him to boss where they kill us, get boss and continue to snowball the game to victory.

    "Lili, what the fuck? I can easily solo boss, I told you to get the tribute and I repeatedly pinged retreat on the boss, why the fuck did you leave the teamfight?"
    "Случайные кириллические слова"

    I'm so mad right now I might just have to kick a puppy.

    What the fuck is happening again? Like 5th game in a draft mode over past 2 days where people just refuse to draft either a tank or support.

    So disgusted, I play draft modes because I want sensible games not just delayed motherfucking Quick Match. Seriously, people who are last to pick and we still miss a Warrior or Support should be prevented from picking other roles. It is so unfair, I either have to play 3 leaver games or eat another loss while wasting time.

    Won 7 straight team league placement matches, ended 7/3 and in plat 1 with 15 points to promotion. I'm okay with that, won the promotion and got my diamond

    The awesome thing was not really my placement (while still fantastic, for me), it was my friends. We were 4 people having a LAN. Last time I did one was like 10-15 years ago. So much screaming, shouting and loud celebration happened. Was a BLAST!
    Well met!

    Been playing over 200+ games in a matter of two weeks on the ladder in Hero League. Struggling to even get out of Platinum and have a 47,7% win rate with 104 wins, 114 losses. The amount of thrown games that I have seen as well as the complete jumbled mess of skill among players make having any significant impact on winning the game completely nullified. When I thought the ladder could not get worse with the last season, this one takes the cake.

    First pick Tracer. On Braxis. Dies constantly. Flames our Sonya for being in solo lane.

    Get me out of platinum!

    Second game: Guy picks butcher in Li Li/Johana

    Had a Stiches in the game after who refused to leave me as Xul soloing top/mid on BHB as our bot lane got swamped and Guldan who literally only lifedrained.

    I can't do anything to win these games.

    Last game of the night, guy in draft says it's his second ever ranked game. My heart sank, but he just wanted some advice. He liked specialists so the team all helped him out with some Nazeebo builds and tips. Was a 30 min game but we won and the guy thanked us for helping him into ranked so kindly.

    For all that hell tonight, that game felt special

    Melee guldan, specialist afked in the 1st minute. Just my li ming and sonya against a highly coordinated team. The healer was busy soloing mobs or attempting to solo the entire enemy team alone in lanes (but never objectives)

    We had...HAD...a chance at a come back after an amazing team kill. We went to the boss but the healer separated from us to kill mobs. Half the people at the boss died and the objective then comes up for the resurrected enemy team to capture.

    2nd match was...pure hell as Jaina. Had a team full of people with knock backs and yanks. Me and the li ming were losing our minds because the rest would CONSTANTLY USE these abilities without purpose or reason. The button is just available so i guess its time to use it! We kept missing our skill shots because the rest of the team constantly pushed them out of our AOE, away from our skill shots, out of danger or RIGHT INTO US to get us killed. Knockback is a tool! dont just waste it, it has to be used at the right moment for a good reason!

    It didn;t even matter if we waited to fire after the first knockback because we would miss our guess at where htey were being knocked back because 1) we couldnt possibly know which of the three idiots would use their knockback first 2) the others would immediately follow up with another knockback/yank/whatever. Once or twice these idiots even blocked li mings orb from getting kills by pushing enemy mobs into it. All out of sheer incompetence.

    There was one team fight where they AMAZINGLY made us miss EVERY skill shot. I wish i had recorded it. I had my ring ult perfectly set up at the start but it completely misses because of our brightwings ult. One after another my and li-mings abilities all miss because of our team mates moving them out of the way with perfect timing.

    had an amazing 3rd match as jaina after that though. was on fire from the start, getting kills with a burst build and setting up 34 assists. It feels so good to have people who take advantage of your setups for them.
