what do you guys think of heroes of the storm? What are its positive and negative sides?
Have been playing for a while, altho badly but still (:D), but curious about other people opinions.

I know right. I do my best to do exactly that.
Plus sides; teamwork matters, cool heroes that you'd probably be familiar with (and most abilities are based on lore), less toxic by far than other moba games that I won't name, more maps/game modes than the usual moba, easier to get into.
Down sides: A bit less "skill based" (some people dislike that, or well, a lot of people), less opportunity for you to shine above your teammates and "carry".
I'd like to point out that it uses a talent system instead of a item and/or skill-up spells system like the usual moba does. I don't want to classify it as good or bad, because opinions can go either way. But it is an important difference to note.
Do I like it? Yes, I've had much more fun with it than both League and DotA2. Doesn't hold a torch to DotA (wc3 mod) though.
Negatives: it exists.
Positives: DotA exists so you won't have to play a Hearthstone moba.
I dunno Kemii. I finished my game 8-4-2 with a Yasuo giving a spetacular throw and without a support since my support decided to pull out a pro move and support the jungler instead of the ADC. I don't mind 'cause Corki has a huge farming power and a huge solo capability (specially because of the runes I use) so I got a double kill early in the game while solo'ing.
One of this days I'll support you so I can take the rust out of my shoulders. Also counting that I still need to do placements, dropping my MMR to yours wouldn't be a bad idea actually. I assume you play EUW correct?
Now let's extend that in a worldwide range please?
I love you. Thank you. DotA is life.

You dont want to support me... my main ADC is Varus, so out of meta lol.
But yes I'm on EUW. http://euw.op.gg/summoner/champions/userName=kemi
Trust me I've handled worst. Varus is not that bad if well played and properly supported. I'll add you tomorrow.
Yh my stats dont look to bad considering I have about 100 games played as him. Just need to know how to adapt to the enemy team (Ability Build or Auto Attack build) and its fairly ok... brutal even with the right support (Leo/Morg/Taric).

Yeah it has to be played with an aggressive support in order to secure your late game. I would pick Lulu over Taric because of the late game itself. Lulu is a monster to turn teamfights around even being squishy.
I personally preferred Leona or Braum support. I was usually fairly aggressive with them too. I loved to get a bit of AP on Leona using that crystal scepter or whatever it's called. +Health/AP/Slow effect. Yum. But then they released Braum and... my Leona went out the window. Don't need the silly scepter with Braum's Q and passive.
bought a server hard drive that was retired and they sold the ones with no errors on ebay
That's 855 days powered on but $30 for 2tb is pretty sweet.

the supports I personally play are Leona and Nautilus, I gotta be tanky and I love both their engages and lock down potential.
Same when I ADC, I gotta have a tanky support with some form of CC since most of my ADCs have strong skillshots (Varus, Sivir, Jhin).
Morgan is acceptable though too for her shield and roots.
I only run with Taric as me and DJ have matching skins for it. He wears his Armor of the Fifth Age and I have my Heartseeker. I prefer his taric with my Sivir, for the ult diving with mine.
Who else is waiting for legion prepatch tomorrow? Im pretty excited and its not even an official launch, i have a feeling legion will be a lot more exciting than Wod ever was for some reason, surely not as good as previous expansions but it will surely give people months of content to have fun with..
also every time i jump in here.. i find my name somewhere thats weird
Legion should at least be decent, since they've established the trend of "filler expansions".
Yes, Cataclysm. I'm looking at you.
