    HotS motivational thread, what have you accomplished today?

    Just wanted something a bit more positive to counteract the other thread hanging around. If you have gotten a specific rank up, gotten a new hero, gotten a level or skin, talk about it.

    Just got Anub'arak to 7, so got a new skin. Shooting for 8 since I love the ice theme since I mostly remember Anub from the Argent Tournament raid. Also started playing Li Li again and found my love for her. I think I had a run of bad games with her when I played her last. As a support, you can only do so much to sway your team to victory. If the rest of the team doesn't group up, doesn't do well in team fights and makes me solo lane, it's supremely frustrating. But had a run of good games with her and now I remember again why she's my favorite support. She's fast, got great heals and has a handy blind. And she's adorable.

    Next on the block is getting Abathur to 8. I eventually want to get him to 10 for the zerg portrait since I already have Zagara at 10. Also slowly getting Li Li to 10. I intend to get her master skin eventually.

    Got Thrall to level 9, beginning the grind to 10 now after deciding I want his master skin. Even with the shortfalls, still find him my most fun hero to play.

    Nothing; I only want to play Rexxar and get his Master Skin, but his riding animation on the (matching) Ironside War Wolf is off (as he's sitting on the wolf's tail instead of in the saddle). Don't want to spend 50+ games grinding up a hero on a mount I don't like (the kodo, which is the only one he properly fits), so I'm waiting for patch.

    Got Illidan to lvl 9 for the 750g, did my daily, and...well, actually that's about it. I usually only get around 4 games in on work days, so I played 2 games as a Diablo hero(hadn't played Leoric in awhile so busted him out, then decided to bring out Butcher) for my daily, then the 2 games it took me to level Illidan. Don't care about master skin for him, so not concerned about getting him farther.

    i dropped from rank 9 to rank 10 in HL.

    Yeah I mostly just get my dailies done, I'm only about 3-4 games from getting Tychus to 9 though. Then probably Malfurion next.

    People usually use that thread to say how things are going wrong for them, so I wanted something that focused on the brighter side of things.

    Decided to start tanking in hero league, always worried my map awareness wasn't up to par, but so far win rate is around 75% - saving for Leoric to start really carrying the ranks.

    Nice! Going for Leoric as well when I get the gold. At 6.5k now, so in a few more days I'll be good. So far my go-to's are Anub'arak and Leoric for warrior, Li Li for support, Butcher for Assassin and Zagara or Sgt. Hammer for specialists. I'll eventually get Kael'Thas and Nova for funsies. Hoping the Medic will be a fun support.

    Had a guy AFK first pick Diablo, but I've never been the guy to trash people's picks. We zone into the game and I tell him "Diablow, make me a believer." Eventually, the whole team expresses their faith in Satan himself. Penetrating Round into Apocalypse is a fun combo and we ended up winning. So here's to people who don't trash people for AFK picks and are willing to give them a chance.

    Must have had a very damage heavy comp. That's pretty crazy. I know shrines is far from balanced, but winning on the second punisher is still pretty damn impressive.

    Yeah, I can see how that would work against them. Thrall is pretty easy to kill if he gets a little out of position. Sgt. Hammer is great when the team covers for her, otherwise she's an easy target. But no warrior or support definately worked against them.

    A buddy and I decided to play together for the first time in ages--last time, people basically just kept picking on him for using generally bad heroes.

    This time we did Butcher (me) and Zeebro (him) and we had 8 QM wins in a row before some random Valla started trash talking both of us since apparently Butcher takes no skill and Zeebro without Ravenous Spirit is "garbage tier". Though we still won, neither of us really bit back and the Diablo on our team was super nice because apparently they had that particular Valla before. We added him and have been playing since.

    More recently, there was a Muradin/Nova combo on the other team who were mega aggressive. They weren't good or bad, just always went for it. As such, I spent most of the game without capped off meat until 20, but my buddy and Devilfrand were sort of the kings. A few games later, we got that Nova and Muradin who recognized us and immediately started trash talking even though we were on the same team. They AFK booted and though we didn't win, the Zeratul on the other team (who I am convinced is an elder god because he was ridiculously good) also recognized them and added us all after the game. I went from just me and a buddy to making a few new friends and having a great team.

    That's amazing, good for all of you! Maybe you guys can give team league a shot in the future.

    Knocked ETC out of doing a four man ult with a Butcher charge, allowing our team to promptly slaughter their two squishies who were coming in for easy kills and win the game.

    Also not today, but Nova to level 11 yesterday.
