Hotschads we gather once again to witness some wacky ass shit on the PTR

Not reinstalling Hots until every Overwatch hero is nerfed into unplayablity.

>>719726441
What's wrong with dva

The ptr changes sound awful, in my opinion. I hope they don't go live.

>>719726529
Same thing as the rest of them; obnoxious levels of mobility and defensive tools. Never fun to fight.

>>719725861 (OP)
this game still exists? no fucking way i actually had forgotten about it. Its incredible the shit people will spend their time on

>2025
>Playing Blizzard games

Wasn't this game put in maintenance mode like ten years ago?

>>719727096
>>719728295
They're preparing for a re-release next year at blizzcon.

The only good thing about this were the thick character models. Tyrande was fucking perfect.

I'm hoping they bring this game back to life at Blizzcon 2026

>>719726529
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO HER ASS?
Have they censored it? She had a nice cute ass.

>>719729256
People have kept playing this game for such a long time, most people probably have all heroes.
Who was even the last one? Hogger?
>Released 4 years ago

>>719729024
I'm not buying one-armed blind black arathi girl if they make her a champion.

are you still able to chat about trump and niggers in general chat?

>>719729024
>>719729410
They still do Blizzcon?

>>719729024
I fucking hope NOT.
Imagine modern blizzard "correcting" those juicy models and try AGAIN to win the esport rat race.

>>719725861 (OP)
The game is dead because it keeps huffing its own esports wet fart instead of being sensible and cater to solo players like dota and LOL.

>>719725861 (OP)
Steam when?

>>719730005
Yo dawg, we heard you like launchers.

>>719729663
Every other year now.
The trailer for blizzcon 2026 on YouTube has a comment section literally exclusively begging for hots.

>>719729024
>HotS Classic
Wouldn't surprise me.

No point in a re-release unless they put it on Steam, and something tells me Blizzard wont be putting any game there anymore, new or old.

>>719729659
I cant wait for them to add Master Chief and Serana to hots, bros

>>719726571
Forts no longer auto targeting heroes who damage heroes under it seems bad

They should make all heroes free honestly. I tried playing with newfags multiple times but they get bored of playing for 2 weeks to get one hero.

You call this shit massive?

>>719734209
Yeah they're fundamentally changing how tower diving works

>>719734209
There are also 3 big maps changes that basically rewrites the main strategies for those maps.

>>719725861 (OP)
>try QM
>90% bot games
>try ARAM
>70% bot games

>>719737293
So dont play qm or aram
Dumbass

>>719737804
no QM is fine but i always liked aram for when you just want to chill

>>719730252
Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 are Steam native and don't require Bnet.

>>719738050
But those games are bad

>>719725861 (OP)
I thought HOTS has been dead for years.
Did Blizzard have some other MOBA they killed? I can't be confusing it with hearthstone, I know that's still running.

hey what the fuck i heard HotS was dead or something? It's the only reason I never played it

>>719738998
Rumors of hots death were greatly exaggerated.
Genuinely.

>>719725861 (OP)
the minion change isn't clear to me. Is it saying that hitting a building buffs the enemy minions or your minions?

>>719729659
>one-armed blind black arathi girl
why the fuck did you have to remind me that bitch exists

>play HotS
>People so mad they send whispers after the game
Lmao.

>>719739232
I think it' that you inspire your own minions if you push alongside them

These changes are curious. Not sure if they help or hinder defenders. Not being auto targetted will make laning a bit more exciting. Core defense will also be a bit easier. Also does this minion buff apply to friendly minions (attacking the structure) or enemy ones (defending the structure)? It's not entirely clear from the wording.

>Unrelease game
>People keep playing it
>Rerelease it
Honestly good on them and the players but still funny as fuck

>>719725861 (OP)
>Heroes of the Storm
Holy fuck, the servers for that game is still on? What year is this, 2013?

I had played literal years of LoL, HoN, dota and dota 2 before trying heroes of the storm. You know what the that means. I’ve seen every way someone could seethe in a video game. Years of leavers, feeders, griefers, etc. Russians, Peruvians, chinks, you name it. At least I thought I had seen it all.

The levels of toxicity and mental illness in hots absolutely blows every other game out of the water. It unironically blew my mind and I can’t even do it justice to describe just how mad niggas get in this game. Like you’re a second away from reading about a mass shooting on the news. This game is played by freaks.

>>719739721
People still play Dota 2. Well, if you can say Peruvians are people.

>>719740051
>Burgers in charge of knowing fuck all about anything

>>719740034
This isn't my experience.
Sure people are toxic but I have not experienced a level that surpasses the average online game

>>719725861 (OP)
Sounds like the forts themselves dealing damage to you is less of an issue if you're pushing in with creeps, but

>Attack hero camping under building
>They become gigachad and you deal no damage to

>Focus building
>It has 12.5% extra health now
>But your creeps deal more damage to it too

So a nerf to diving for kills, but a buff for pushing in with creeps?

>>719726441
But I want mccree still

>>719741750
Basically I guess they want to deincentivise excessive aramming

>>719741750
the defense buff only works on one hero at a time so I'm curious how lanes with more than one hero will play out.

>>719744829
Its whoever gets targetted. So if you're clever you just love tap whoever you dont want to kill then target the other squishy under the fort.

But thats not easily done in practice and the enemy can just put the target they want the buff on in front and keep someone else in back.

Essentially, you shouldn't be winning trades with people under tower while that effect is in play because you cant damage them effectively.

>>719729024
I'm worried that they'll just ruin a good thing.
