    StarCraft 2

    Game was boring as fuck. It was basically the TvP equivalent of swarm hosts. Flash played like shit as well. Terrible scouting, terrible engagements and never punished the play.

    Heroes of the Storm

    The funniest part about playing against TB is his team's worth in USD had to be close to $200. Tons of custom skins and custom mounts. And they were fuck-all bad.

    I think HOTS prices are 4-10 so not wildly out of the price spectrum

    Heroes of the Storm

    The prices make sense now that I know they rotate the F2P heroes every week or so. At first I thought they were absurd but I'm cooled off it since they keep switching out who you can play for free each week.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well a few things. You only get the free legendary if you're below level 60 except for Diablo which drops one each time. If you do that approach you won't be able to reset quests because to unlock reset quests you need to achieve every checkpoint of every quest.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Don't you have to go thru the story anyways? What is the point of being level 60 then being forced to run the story anyways? May as well kill two birds with one stone.

    Yeah I got the idea watching my GF playing Plague Inc obsessively and she never plays games. The idea is basically two players are playing on a globe instead of just an individual map like SC. You set macro-level AI on each individual sector. Lets say there are three: Defensive, Offensive...

    StarCraft 2

    In TvP the idea is generally to float to gold and deny the natural outright so they can't PO. You then bunker the natural making it very difficult to break out. You then expand to your natural while taking gases and go into a pretty standard 5rax + Port. It is very difficult to outright win...

    Yeah the gamer community expects things to be fixed immediately but it doesn't work that way at pretty much any large environment. It can work that way when you have 8 or so people working in a garage but once you become large you have to get the JIRA (basically the problem report ... I don't...

    This is true for basically every software development job everywhere. Everyone on my team checks their email a few times on the weekends. If someone is having a problem put in an hour here or there to track it down and file a JIRA to fix it later. I work with tons of smart people who simply...

    Heroes of the Storm

    WD seemed pretty good but I couldn't quite figure out his ultimate and when to best use it. But his toads at high level would just annihilate creep waves. So I took Bribe at level1 and bribed quite a few camps throughout the game. Shame the opponent Illidan was obsessed with popping his ult...

    Yeah Tassadar is pretty OP in general. I find if I Q on lesser played heroes my Q time goes down so I do that. Since you can't have three Tassadars on the same team. Seems every game I'm in this week has two Zeratuls and two Tassadars.

    I like the new rotation of F2P heroes more than the last rotation. Wish Abathur was F2P so I may have to just drop money on him. Mountain King is fun, WD is fun. Zeratul is a dick eater. Haven't played them all yet.

    Heroes of the Storm

    This is very true. There isn't a hard set "river fag" like in DOTA2 but knowing when to press ahead, when to back and to constantly be moving around is something that every moba player knows and will put them on better footing. You can tell someone hasn't played a moba before because they'll...

    It is pretty awkward to get behind someone let alone as the dragon knight. I constantly tried to penetrate shot with Raynor by getting ahead of someone but it isn't always that simple.

    Heroes of the Storm

    Abathur has a few skills to be aware. First he spawns a locust on a cooldown (45s maybe?) in the lane he is nearest. Next is that he can spawn toxic nests. At level 1 these nests have a decent range but really you need to be near the lane you're spawning them. You can build up three charges...

    I had no idea they rotated the free to play heroes. Also seems retarded they need to take the service down to rotate said heroes. -edit- Seems they can rotate w/o taking the service down but they're doing a minor patch with it as well.

    Had to make sure it wasn't April 01 when I first saw that. I guess it'll be at MLG Anaheim ... still seems like a pretty dumb move.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    The recommendation at 45 isn't a hard and fast requirement. You can still get a pretty decent level 45 weapon with damage modifiers and a socket and the Ruby still does a ton of damage. May need to farm to 60 in Act3 and drop the difficulty level down to just plow thru Act4 -- which is much...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Get to level 15, get a socketable weapon, drop a high level ruby in said weapon and go on Master mode. Upon getting to level 45 get a level 60 weapon with dmg and -15 level modifier.

    Also going to echo episode two was fantastic. Nothing ground breaking but I'm glad he didn't back down. He basically said "This happened. It is fact. Deal with it." in very subtle terms. All the analogies and explanations were very accessible and easy to understand. I've had the...

    I wonder if on the Raven map you could game the system by just ignoring the first two tributes. It is natural for the tribute spawn to have all 5man zerg the tribute spawn. What if you didn't? What if you just stayed in lane, grabbed merc camps and let your opponent go 2-0 for the first two...

    Cool stuff Lenny congrats on the game. Wish I had the motivation to work on something like this. I have a really neat game design concept but it's scale is a bit to much for me to bite off at the moment. Kind of a mixture between Plague Inc. and Starcraft.

    Anything worth buying a PS4 over?

    PS3 is still a nice machine to have for the living room. Wireless streaming, playing crap via USB, Netflix/Amazon/Redbox streaming, BD playback. I don't play any PS3 games but I own two PS3s just attached to my TVs.

    Heroes of the Storm

    A 4 second CD on exit. So generally you'll want to Symbiote someone doing something important for a bit, exit out, drop your nests then Symbiote someone again. Running a rotation like that generally means you'll never encounter the CD. The one thing I haven't tested fully is if you Symbiote...

    I find the Act1 Warden the absolute worst since he just kites you across the entire fucking zone. He is a grade A cock gobbler.

    Heroes of the Storm

    Abathur is a pretty decent pusher as well. I haven't gone a locust-centric build in a bit but if you take the +30% locust HP at level 1, set up a toxic nest line for the creep wave then Symbiote on a creep you can push towers very effectively by just being solo.

    Heroes of the Storm

    I like to fancy myself a pretty decent Abathur player. At least I have a pretty decent win rate on him. Only thing I really need to work on is using his deep tunnel to get to lanes currently not occupied by my team to leech the creep XP. I'm also very good at hitting skillshots with his stab...

    Also on another note I played with Tasteless yesterday. He was Zeratul and I was Abathur. We absolutely curb stomped the other team.

    This is a pretty good post. I, too, eventually stopped following DOTA2 because I simply didn't have time to keep up with all the additional heroes and balance changes. It felt like you couldn't have just a passing interest in the game. You had to dedicate a serious amount of time to even play...

    You can still give them a giant ruby to socket in their weapon and they'll just plow through all the content. Then once they're max level gear upgrades rain from the sky.

    I can only speak from my personal experience, and perhaps the issue is I played DOTA2 before it had "official" match making, but I'm having more fun in HOTS than I ever had in DOTA. But, again, the games are very different. I also enjoy Starcraft more than HOTS but that doesn't mean I hate...
