I'd still prefer if talent gating were gone but 3 games is a hell of a lot better than 10. Their reasoning doesn't make any sense though. Why would someone who has sunk 500 hours into the game and buys a new champ need to have their talents gated at all? It made a lot more sense when they did it by account level.

Played some zagara last night since I had a specialist quest and she is f2p this week. Why does no one play team fight/assassin zagara?, she is super effective. Almost everyone I've seen play her want to just solo push in lane all day. I build her more assassin like, getting range/damage on auto attack and 2nd seeker hunter, couple this with her zoning out ability with her maw and she is deadly in team fights. So many people chase you to try and secure a kill and don't even notice the two hydralisks raping their face. And she still pushes a lane like a champ, with increased range on banelings and autoattack its not uncommon to keep a lane pushed even 2v1. Oh and she has the best scouting in the game with her creep tumors.
Her issue is she falls off. Her summons don't scale as well as enemy damage and once your hydras and roaches are getting walked over she can't really do a whole lot. In the early game she is very good at securing early momentum, though.
Even after the Brightwing nerfs he is still pretty legit. You just need to play a bit differently. Anymore what I do is basically blow my entire wad of mana doing my QWE rotation basically on cooldown, disengage the combat, hearthstone, Z back into the battle. It is an ungodly amount of healing. You can reasonably expect to be ahead in the teamfight after you blow your rotation so you leaving the battle to refill your mana isn't the worst thing in the world. If you take Rewind/Hardened Focus you can really blow your mana quickly. Then, of course, you're taking Rains at 7. I'm still pretty damn close to the healing numbers after the game pre-nerf when Blink procced Rains and Path of the Wizard meant unlimited mana. But I do use Hearthstone on him about 10x more than on any other hero.
Korea enters the scene
AcE Noblesse , CrazymoviNG ,Kong and sC Retire
For anyone unaware with the Sc2 scene these are all since retired players players but were all pretty good during the Wings of Liberty era.

Seems a bit premature, but I guess they weren't really getting results anymore in SC2 right? I remember nobless and sC vaguely from when I watched GSL in WoL but I don't remember hearing about them after that during heart of the swarm. Now if Blizzard actually opened the beta and had spectator mode and custom games enabled, there could be some early tournaments. Instead they're wasting time on stupid ass money making upgrades. Shit they'd probably make more money if they started implementing viewer tickets with rewards and shit like dota2 does and started promoting the game as a competitive game.
They're still adding/ironing content on a pretty fast clip. I don't think they're ready for beta at the moment. And tournaments are actually told not to happen under the terms of the alpha. Which is probably why custom games got disabled after one was ran.
You gunna be on tonight Mures? I'm rotating between Tychus, Brightwing, Abathur and Arthas these days.

I'm playing my next hearthstone match sometime tonight, but I'll be playing some hots at some point too. I was playing with ome some last weekend and we had a pretty good run, would be cool if we could get together and maybe even get in skype or something.
So, what is the status of this? Is it out in US or still in beta? I'm in EU and getting an itch to try this out.
