Heroes of the Storm

Illidan is good in a 2x2 team (2 healer 2 tank/peeler) but in pugs he's quite often free food as the bad ones try and duke it out, get slapped hard as they jump in hyper aggressively and then blame the team etc... If you like Arthus do you already have stitches? Arthus got beaten to a pulp in the last round of nerfs and I mean totally butchered - less sustain, less damage, less ability to tank, it's horrible. Stitches on the other hand is still broken as hell and you can't even hook your own team mates by accident like dota - I would suggest holding out on arthus right now, he's just in a really bad place. ETC's kit is similar-ish to arthus and in a much better place if you want to initiate and tank for your teams.

I did notice this this morning. I was watching a video of Force playing Arthas from a couple of months ago, and the damage he was taking was non-existent! Totally different from when I was playing as him last night, he got slapped hard when I tried to run in with the AOE damage spell he's got.

Although I agree, I don't think Blizzard will allow accidental hooking your own team mates as the ability to do that is currently one of the skills you unlock.

I do think it should be standard and then replace that skill with something else.
 
Thanks for the games last night it was good fun. I decided to try out some other heroes before bed last night and ended up playing a few too many !

Stitches is indeed a laugh, great when you land a hook on a retreating foe to see it get smashed to bits by team mates :p I'll be on later for a few more rounds.
 
I'll hopefully be on tonight, but as usual, late... Working late shifts at the moment.

I'm tempted to buy the nexus bundle on Friday. £30, think it's worth it?

I've only played a few games.

Its the only money I have spent so far, I think its probably the best value bundle tbh. Gives you a good range to heroes to use.
 
Nexus bundle, starter bundle and a months stimpack is what i did. Comes to around £40 and gives me more than enough.

Oh and bought Reghar for under £4 when he was on sale.

Won't spend anymore now and will use the heroes i have and the free rotation.

Aaaaand, when are they thinking of making this game public? How early in beta? Will there be a wipe when it finished closed beta?

Blizzards idea of a beta isn't like most games, its already well polished. There wont be a wipe, if it's anything like Hearthstone then it's practically released anyway.

They will just make it available for everyone and add to it over time.

When will that be? My mates want to know when they can play it and I have absolutely no idea lol

Your guess is as good as mine, they can pay for beta now but it's not good value for money. Either try win a key when some of the bigger sites hand them out or tick that they are interested in the beta on the blizzard site and hope they get invited.

I nearly have 7k Gold who should i buy with it??

I haven't seen anyone playing Kerrigan since she was last on rotation and haven't given her a go myself. Have you played any of them yourself?

Before buying any character I would wait and get them to at least level 5 on the free rotation to get a good feel for them.

I made about 6000g in the last few days playing some games with Dave and a few others.

Kerrigan took quite a nerf in the recent patch, Diablo is marmite as some love him and some hate him.

Not tried Tyrael but knowing you Stu you will be looking for Starcraft heroes. In fact those 3 may well be on the new rotation on Tuesday as i don't think they have been on the last 2 rotations.
