    That sleep dart is gonna be great with teammates who don't break it. At least not before breaking it with a wombo combo.

    It's kind of weird that nano boost is clearly a mage-designed thing, yet Li Ming, the magiest mage who gets all the costumes, with her trait and channeled Disintegrate, benefits from it way less than decidedly not-mage fuckers like Genji. Chromie too for that matter.

    I fully expect a change in how easy it is to cancel Ana's ult. Even Grubby is accidentally cancelling it sometimes by rightclicking or whatever.

    TBH I don't think Nano Boost is mage-specific. The basic ability CDR is significant. Plenty of AA-based heroes or non-mages have strong abilities that benefit from being spammable. Like, I'm pretty sure Slime-build Murky is ridiculous with Nano Boost...

    I don't know. I'm imagining nano-boost Li Ming blinking about enough to make Tracer look like she's standing still. Also a billion magic missiles.

    Coupled with her own ability to reset cool downs, a good Li Ming with nano boost is probably a nightmare.

    Funny, but again that's a 4-level lead. Take it with a grain of salt as to how she actually plays :P

    If you're not chasing some idiot teammate who keeps leaping into a pack of enemies and/or around corner to dodge your shots, or in this case, a Jaina running in super fast circles thanks to conveyor belts, you're not REALLY getting the Ana experience. Hell, he even bodyblocks the Nova for her. True counter-Mei play.

    The best thing is that mediv's portal moves along the conveyor. It's hilarious.

    like yea they're up 4 levels, but this is some mega clown fiesta action. I've been a part of some pretty incredible fiestas, but nothing I can recall even gets close to that level of tomfoolery. The game really should just start playing yakety sax if you've been on the conveyor belts for that long.

    Pretty excited.

    :lol:

    Bug! If you get in the Protector Gunner slot right as it blows up, then you will be unable to move or use abilities for the rest of the game. You can't even dance!

    (This may only be the case on the Brawl, I dunno.)

    Edit: If you leave the game, the AI will take over. But if you rejoin, you are stuck again.

    Edit2: Rejoice! If you bring up the little circle menu for sprays and such, you are able to spray and dance via that! Also play voicelines from other heroes!~ :P

    Not sure how I feel about increasing the cooldown of Breath of Heaven by 2 seconds, from 8 to 10. Yeah, Insight gained a more powerful CDR every third hit, but I'm still not feeling it. There are plenty of times as Kharazim when it just isn't safe to go in and trade, and in those situations, increasing the cooldown of his heal is a straight nerf. I mean, we'll see how it goes, but the developer comments suggested they're looking to make Insight and Transcendence more popular so that they can compete with Iron Fists, and this actually makes me want to play Insight less, so eh.

    They made Iron Fists too good with perma 30% movespeed in combat and now don't know what to do to make the other level 1s good.

    idk, I think his winrate is going to get hit pretty hard, since those other traits just aren't as good as iron fists.

    Thankfully the superior Jaina skin retains her look.

    And I get a snowman too, so that's just a bonus.

    The problem is he can go Iron Fist and still solo support pretty well. They needed to reduce his baseline healing and up his healing from taking his other two traits. Whether they did it the right way, I don't know yet.

    It's ok for Iron Fists to make him really good at murder as long as it makes him a decent chunk less good at anti-murder.

    Yet we can't have Widowmaker in Hots now because she's a Nova skin. Because they looked too much alike or some garbage like that.

    Jaina now has a skin that dresses her up as Kerrigan.

    Tyrande and Sylvanas both have skins where they dress like the other. Malf and Illidan do as well to a lesser degree.

    Novazon and Cassia.

    God I hate that widowmaker is a skin and not a character.

    I'll be co-casting a game tonight for the Nexus Gaming Series, which is an amateur HotS league. Tonight's the start of season 2.

    The match I'm casting is between TMG Red and ODG, and you can watch it here starting at 7pm PST/10pm EST.

    Tyrande and Sylvannas are the only ones that are really hard to tell apart though and that's even without skins half the time.

    Jaina they just straight up changed her silhouette. She's suddenly got freaking wings.


    Also we don't need Widowmaker anyway.
