No game should be over in 5 mins, comebacks are a regular thing. Well they were when i played regularly a few months ago.

Yeah i find most games always win-able

People still forgot map control and objectives turn a game SO much.


Anyone got around to trying Xur?

I have had a while off this game due to other commitments but looking to get back into it slowly.

I've probably seen 5 comeback in over 50 games played.
A comeback would generally require the team to play the objective and as it's often the case that the team is losing because only 2 or 3 of them are playing the objective it doesn't usually change as the game goes on.
Then you're 2 or 3 levels behind and you're barely 10 minutes in.
Making the same mistakes for another 5 minutes doesn't tend to turn things around.

So yeah, in short there have only been about 5 games in which I haven't been able to call the winner by the halfway point.

I find Dota 2 to be pretty much the same too, it just takes longer. Although ratting seems more effective in Dota.
 
I have to admit I do find that to be the case quite frequently, but mostly due to people thinking "oh **** it we're 2 levels behind, no coming back from this now".

I always try to play with people I know to avoid situations like that.
 
Xul is really fun, probably going to get nerfed as the Skeletal Mages are such a powerful ability if used properly. If anyone fancies a run when im online add me.

Also just blew 20k on the pig mount.. totally worth it, the animation and movement is awesome!
 
I would be up for some OCUK games - Enjoyed the ones from back in the day!

I am starting to get back into this now! QM to me is basically just a fun playground so dont expect anyone to play serious here.

Not tried HL in a LONG time so not sure if the teams suffer the same issues there.

I do end up doing that.
I basically just stay active enough to not get an abandon while trying to do do anything to slow down the other team so the game finishes ASAP.
 
Garden of Terror now taking longer due to people not reading the patch notes, wasting the terror and plant pot.
Works both ways though, other teams terror running around and wasting theirs, so it can almost be ignored.

Have yet to come up against many Illidans, since I mostly QM, from what people say on the subreddit, quite glad of it, by the sounds of it he has been tuned up a bit too much.
 
Yeah in HL - its almost instant ban on Illidan/Morales at the moment.

The changes to the garden terror do not make a huge difference to how it needs to be played.

I always saw the terror as more of a distraction than anything else. Good to take focus off the rest of the team for them to either push a lane get a camp or focus some solo heroes.

Always more than happy to play with you dave!

Even though my MMR sucks balls I am capable with a good duo queue or TL.

Played with MUCH higher ranks/MMR players and seem to hold my own most of the time!
