    Good watch. No solutions given to power creep and new / returning players, but it's nice that they are taking the time to talk to the community to say they're aware and are thinking about how to solve it.

    Never understood the desire for giant tablets to replace a laptop. I'd rather have a Macbook Air over this. I guess if I was artistic, then maybe I'd get one for the pencil, but it's just not for me.

    I had forgotten about this movie, but I watched this yesterday for free on a plane and had to buy it this morning and rewatch it on a proper set up. So fucking good.

    I never thought of that interaction. That makes Aspirant pretty good to have in play against Sylvanas and MC Tech

    I'm pretty sure I've seen people with master skins playing against AI. I'm sure there's plenty of reasons why people only play against AI: less pressure and therefore less vitriol/salt/rage/whatever, trying new builds, trying new characters, clearing quests for a role they don't like, etc...

    I bought the Butcher recently, but am kinda regretting it and wish I had gotten Leoric instead. The Butcher is such a divey hero and can get really screwed by cc. Someone had mentioned that he's a better version of Thrall, but I feel like Thrall has a lot of utility with Sundering. Also, Thrall...

    Pirate Rogue feels more viable now. I'm still a casual scrub at Rank 16, but I won two in a row against Druid and Totem Shaman. Buccaneer, 1 mana 2/1, gives your weapon +1 when you equip it, is pretty good with Blade Flurry to clear a board of totems. Also, Beneath the Grounds can be pretty nice...

    The worst oblivious players are Leorics who feed the entire game bc of his rez trait. No, you should not be going in 1v5... Solo supports not taking healing talents are up there too though

    I actually really like the health bar changes as a healer. It makes it really easy to distinguish where I am versus where my team is. I can also see the mana fine, too. /shrug

    Heroes of the Storm

    We had Rehgar (me) and Johanna. Theirs was Brightwing/Leoric. In retrospect, Uther probably would've been better for Divine Shield. But I remember thinking that I wanted the mobility for the map as well as a lower cooldown heal.

    KT/Jaina/Illidan vs Butcher/Zeratul/Nazeebo was on Blackheart's Bay. We lost early skirmishes for the chests and tried to D up on the turn in, but would get wrecked every time. Our mages couldn't get past the front and Nazeebo would safely Ravenous from behind.

    Don't even need to queue as a 5 members for that. I'll have to /join Rerolled to look for groups. Speaking of comps, what's good for what maps? For Dragon Shire, I've been asking my team to go double warrior, but the last two times, I got bitched out for "not enough dps" by bad players who...

    Figured it out. If you're going to solo queue as a support, use Malfurion. Take the increased range talent at 4 and land your roots and moonfires. Securing kills for your team lets your team snowball a lot easier than trying to hope they don't engage stupidly.

    IMO, the storage question comes down to gaming and movies. If you plan on using your tablet for those purposes, then you may want to look at more storage (i.e. load a bunch of games/movies for a road trip or flight). If you're just doing internet browsing and photo viewing, 16 GB is plenty. If...

    Preordered last night myself. New mechanics should be fun to mess around with for a few months. Bought my preorder through my iPad though. I know that Apple gets a cut of the $50, and maybe I should've bought it directly from Blizzard to support them more (not that Blizzard or Apple -really-...

    Chu8 going full damage with Kharazim on PTR. Looks pretty powerful. I like how he's basically sustained damage + heals. But his auto attack is so fast that stutter stepping is going to be hard (for me).

    Seems like a lot of energy to heat up an oven just to clean a single cast iron pan. You don't do this whenever you cook with it, do you? I just hand wash mine with soap and water, wipe it down with some oil, and then heat it on the stove for a few minutes to dry.

    Also since there are a lot of demon-buffing cards, this would counter that too, I guess. Still seems weird that this exists. But so does Hemet Nesingwary, so /shrug

    I guess, fine. I left him out because most people don't silence him, but I suppose if he's blocking lethal, it's a valid play. But it's still only 5 cards for one class. Maybe it'll be used for tournaments as a sideboard card?

    That's so bad it can't be right. Good against 3 cards? (Void caller, Void Terror, and Imp Gang Boss). All the other demons are battlecries. edit: Dreadsteed too, so 4

    Against midrange or control though, you probably don't need to heal your face for 14, having a 7 hp heal on Ysera is plenty.
