Oh dear. Bam convinced Mewn to do some TL, and now he's drunk and has made somewhere in the $1.5k-2k range and thinking about relapsing.
Of-fucking-course he is, he always does this. This is his thing! He plays HotS, is fine for a while, gets omega salty, sodium overloads and says that he's "quitting". Streams other stuff, his viewership suffers greatly, realizes he has to stream HotS because no one will watch him otherwise.
Comes back, is fine for a while, gets omega salty................
The gaps are pretty consistently getting longer, which is something. TL memeing is also a far cry from actually grinding HL again.
Just throwing this out there, I lurk a lot around the forums, if anyone wants another body for qm and you see me hanging around the chat feel free so send a party invite.
Also concerning Valeera, I hardly see her in qm but she is one of my favorite heroes. I don't know if my playstyle with her is just different then the norm but I do quite well with her. Although to be honest it took until level 5 when I started to not be total garbage with her.
Same name in bnet?
Yeah it will be the same. bnet uses numbers after I don't recall what mine is but I hang out in the channel whenever I play. I gotta say playing qm solo can be brutal much of the time. Having just 1 more person who isn't terrible can make all the difference. I find if you can have at least 2 who know how to soak it can balance the people who want to manfight or dive poorly, at least to a degree anyways.

Earlier this week I convinced my Ranked team to go 5 dive. Surprisingly they all got on board with the idea. Ended up with Tyrael, Kerrigan, Genji, Kharazim, and Greymane. It was glorious.
I hope our TL group will give it a shot sometime.

Edit: wait, when does the solo queue team league go into effect vs this new mount?
The season ends in months, mid-December. SoloQueue TL is in PTR now, so it really seems like we should get that live in a week or two, giving you plenty of time. It may even go live at the same time as when the season starts.

Wait, what's the difference between the elemental crab and the non-elemental crab?
One is for GM, or some other tier?
Elemental crab is for Master tier and above.
Regular crab is for everyone else.

(that shit sucks, i just mute those people. this week i had a guy who just instantly flew off the handle, told us all to kill ourselves after gates opened and was basically afk in lane. thankfully everyone else was cool though and we still managed to have a game)
i also had this game today, wherein our arthas was typing in capslock the entire time (and not the dibby kind), yelling at us and cursing at us and insulting us and being racist, all in broken english
and then murky got into a pissing match with him and was also being racist
our tyrande ragequit halfway through, i don't blame her tbh
which just left me and meph.
what sort of fucking shadow realm did i land myself into today, holy moly

yeah i wanted to try out her buffs
i think she's a bit better off now. still adjusting to her new playstyle. W almost never lands now. maybe sometimes in hectic teamfights. but the bronze talons buff is pretty significant. draconic barrage gives you some pretty insane damage output now. slowing sands seems like probably the way to go, it's even harder to get temporal value seems like
So you can solo queue for Team League now, but you still get the mount at any TL rank but only Plat+ HL rank? Expect a ton of terrible TL solo queuers just passing through to get the easy mount. Then expect Blizzard realizing this too late and changing it next season?

Protip: just use chromie's W for wave clear, it's actually good for it
Just do 10 solo team league games and don’t give a shit.
That's what I do every season.
Sometimes you get lucky and get a good group who are all in it for the same reason. Last time we were like "Ok, the plan is Cho'gall, every game. No matter what. Let's do this!"

People literally do that right now. Have for the entire existence of season rewards. In droves.
Yeah, I could have told you this. Match quality is HIGHLY variable across time-of-day in this game.
Anecdotally, sure, but having actual data is a step up there. I've said ccg draft modes are way easier at 1-4am EST because that's when my most success was, but that's a sample size of like 10.

I don't even play ranked matches, and even I know that you wait a few days to do your placement matches so that the people phoning it in to get participation rewards can work themselves through the system.

Yeah I dunno what they were thinking here. They open up TL for solo players who are more serious about finding a team... And then they create a strong incentive for everybody to just jump in and crap out 10 TL games, doesn't matter how you perform? What kind of first impression is that?

Regular crab is for plat and up only though, like Dover said?
Or everyone who ranks?
