Sod it, i'll just use standard

Sega Mega Dave · 13 May 2015 at 21:41

Thats why we need get a few together for a few games. Might not win them all but at least we will try the objective.

I'm playing online with my friend, using headsets over skype!

We've both only played 3 games (although my previous DOTA experience helps) but one thing i've noticed is nobody wants to play as a team. I think thats because we're being paired with new people like ourselves

It does get better later on i only get a few games now that are a complete white wash.

Managed sonya 20kills 2 deaths. Felt good man!

Anyone tried Diablo since his re-work?

Sega Mega Dave · 13 May 2015 at 22:43

No, supposedly pretty good though from what I heard in chat. I also like the new mount he has.

I don't own him so can't test him. 8 heroes left before I own them all.

Would be much less if I didn't spend 50k on piggy bank mount and 3 bloody master skins.

Talented a full support Uther for some games tonight. Had an absolute blast over a few games. Most of the time I never died, I think a couple of my matches had 0 deaths. The others a handful at most.

Super tanky support with some ridiculous save ability (Divine Shield) if played correctly. Can really turn a team fight around.

Don't forget to do the training again guys, you now get 250g, 250g and 500g for the three training missions

Thought I would jump back on this as not played it in a few weeks. Got absolutely trounced, despite being top Hero/Siege damage as Valla, getting most kills while surviving I was getting constant abuse for trying to get the Camps, Not committing suicide to try and save members who had over stretched and when I got the Terror getting nothing but abuse DURING a team fight for using it to win the team fight. We then moved on and one guy was abusing me so bad about using it to win the team fight with zero losses that he died to a tower and minions.

Ugh

Don't feel too bad. Pretty much nobody in QM knows how to use the garden terror properly. You get much more value from it if you roam from lane to lane, dropping the rose that disables buildings and fleeing to another lane. If the enemy team has to keep chasing you, your other 4 players can actually do a good siege/take mercs.

Much better than just faceplanting the nearest fort, damaging it 15% and dying.

Sega Mega Dave · 14 May 2015 at 09:32

Tbh I've not seen a lot of abuse lately. You get the odd idiot who can be easily muted but it's been fine.

At least the games are short and you don't have to endure a hour of it

Just tried this and got zip :confused:

Probably because you have already done them since the patch.

I'll try in a min see if I get anything as not done them for months.

Sega Mega Dave · 14 May 2015 at 11:08

Ohh it does work, 1g for doing the tutorials. Nice one Bloomfield.

Reckon my 7 year old must have :rolleyes:

Andr3w · 14 May 2015 at 11:36

I'm actually sat in work and looking forward to playing this game tonight!

I really hope it takes off in a big way, I much prefer it to DOTA!

Sega Mega Dave · 14 May 2015 at 11:39

It won't struggle for players, the Blizzard name will carry it anyway.

Next hero is released on release day which is 2nd June. I hope they give her for free for those going to the release event on 1st June, that would be good.

I must admit it's been pretty much abuse free in the 20 or thereabouts games I have played.

Had one game where our thrall raged on everyone apart for me for not trying and being useless. He was pretty vile and out of order but as someone else said most games are done in about 20mins so it's kind of tolerable.
