butcher/stitches combo is so confusing to deal with visually, lol. They are nasty together too.
I had some good Murky matches last night and got him to 5. I felt dirty afterwards though.

wheres the next hero damn it. At least a tease ;_;
I was actually watching random "leaded 1456 heroes coming to hots" videos the other day when I was bored, and there's actually quite a few actually big named heroes still missing. Like A LOT, they dont even need to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

Another possibility i feel is real for nvt, if they get through crucible, is holding on to the 4 man and kenma retiring and replaced with a newcomer support. But i still feel pretty certain that bkid will get replaced, it's just that there seem to be no good warrior replacements
In some respects I feel the lack of really good warrior players is one of NAs biggest weakness. They don't seem to have the same hungry for victory players on warriors, and teams don't follow up their tanks initiation like they do elsewhere.

Why don't we have a Diablo 1 skin for Diablo? I am not a huge fan of how he turns out in this game:
He just looks way better here:

I think it's the lack of the doofy face.

I think the D1 Diablo looks dumb. I like what they went with for HOTS, and the D3 Prime Evil is fucking incredible too
I feel this way about fan for old gfe, on paper him learning warrior would have improved his game a lot since he plays a pretty selfish style, but yeah if they pick up a real warrior in caff it's redundant. It would have opened equinox and khroen to play roles they were comfortable with too

Uses to be the goto pick, but the cocktail talents are too important now
I'm actually surprised he gets a shout out instead of a shout down and a block considering Garrett has a short temper.

Garrett said he was healing Millys Valla so he probably enjoyed it

It's weird that I don't see like any Genji's in QP. I have seen a Nova like every single match though, I didn't realize how much I hated fighting her till recently.
40k gold now, so I can get whatever 4 heroes I want, plus Li Ming sale next week thats 5 out of the missing 9.
Think if I was to get the 4 now it would probably be Medivh and Genji, both lvl 1 so it would give more boxes so more chances for the others to drop technically (and I havent played them), Probius and Zul.
Leaving Lucio, Guldan, Valeera and Chogall left. I didnt like Guldan or Valeera when they were f2p so I can wait for sales or when I have gold again, I liked Lucio but im not really in a support mood these days, and Chogall I wont be able to quickmatch freely anyway so he will be last.
All this math I do with purchases lol. Rerolling boxes doesnt really appeal to me anymore, especailly once I have the full roster, ill take whatever skins or mounts that drop really. The only reason I dont get them now is as usual, "what if they are on sale next week, I wasted 10k gold".
that being said, I'm gonna get Medivh because I really want to play him #yolo

Medivh is def a character where i feel self-cast is mandatory, self-casting e is also really good if you are commiting to a duel against melee
This dude has been on a roll with content, here he is unpacking a lot of the common attitudes towards the na scene
https://trentesports.wordpress.com/2017/05/26/response-to-town-hall-heroes-na-professionalism/
Tldr is that he is positing that na players are ill-equipped, both structurally and as ppl, to handle pro lyfe. He points to the lack of sponsor interest and na open not being available for scrims due to being on a separate patch as examples and would like if the community would take part in building the scene by explicitly letting orgs know that theyll drop money on them instead of just relentlessly memeing (lol good luck)
I prtty much never agree with this guy on stuff but his articles are good

I like playing him. He's fun. My issue is getting people to use your portals is next to impossible. I even had to remind my friends in comm they could use my portals to escape Zarya's ult. He's not someone we are really used to playing with so I'll forgive them. (we are casuals)
my solution to deciding when to use gold is to get really fucking drunk, and the decisions make themselves.
I always queue with one friend but he is vehemently opposed to cho'gall because he thinks he sucks. It's funny because we were totally willing to play a two-headed ogre after that one April Fool's in WoW.

Bite the bullet and bought the welcome pack, got Azmobro and Rehgar announcers plus Celestial Mount and Zeebra
It would show more if he didn't play like trash all the time.

Iunno i get why ppl would think he's bad
Also reportedly nvt has been scrimming without kenma (tho he will be playing with them in crucible), so it seems likely that it'll be the old squad plus a new support. Prtty risky considering bkid's performance but it's also possible that they decided ken was the one fucking him up

fuck Master's Touch
I cant stay alive to finish it
The other talent is pretty good way to practice till you get good.
Not as much damage overall, but it comes online immediately and it's more consistent. Infinitely better if you just can't not die.

Hey, Raynor is fun, fun at farming and wait , and wait, wait , cast R and pretend you are helping
He should have been on a Vulture and had a movement bonus like Falstad. Have him throw out concussion grenades and lay mines.
We already have another Terran marine in the game with Tychus, seems lame that they put in two gun shooting space marines.
I suppose they could do something like introducing more special active abilities on his talents, so you could stick to the basic Raynor if you're a new player, or flex him a little as a piano-key Raynor for more play-making abilities. Hard to balance, but possible.

Since Raynor is based on a normal Marine unit there is little Blizzard can do to him, I mean the designers split the Stimpack ability into his W and E.
Unless they decide to transform Raynor into a complete new hero unit as a Vulture driver
