Thank you Hoku, I still sometimes forget we (again) have brawls, I needed some good news today, even if I’m a tad late to the party.

Yes, bring on heroic mode! Such a great brawl, but it’s a little too easy.

Very welcome to see it back, a little too easy tough on current setting. Not even one dying on the first run.

I did a run last night where I played as suicidally as possible to see how hard it is to die. Against the named mobs, pretty hard. Facetanking two waves of banelings, instant death. :smiley:

I want heroic mode. But I’m glad this is back.

Thank you Dev(s)

I think they purposely waited for April’s fools.

I hope we get the hard mode next week and they stick it in the custom games tab so we can do it anytime and with smaller teams for an ever harder mode : p

They changed the hero pool, and organized it by the new classifications last night. For example, Mei and Imperius are in, Medivh and Tyrael are out.

I was disappointed Mei wasn’t there, now I’ll have to go back and play another 5 games, thanks for letting us know Hoku.

Anecdotal, I know, but this brawl has had the fastest queue times of the brawls I’ve played so far, they are almost instant.

They also added Garrosh, Anduin, Hogger, Alarak, and Qhira. So there are several fun things to play with.

My favorite is still Lucio, mostly because the mode is so easy, I just try for fastest run times, and he can speed his team through. My personal best so far is 7 minutes solo queuing.

Lucio is my fave in EFB too, for the same reason, but I can’t always get people to speed run it. So many players explore every corner!

I feel confident that Undondory will be ecstatic Nazeebo has been removed, I’m not, but fair that he put on time out with his ancestors for this brawl.

it was the logical thing to do since the zerg didn’t count as minions, forced him to get big voodoo or only play sipders
same with whitemane until the last part she’d struggle cus there’s so many non hero enemies

I got the feeling that the brawl got slightly harder (or maybe it was my teams).

The timers though are definitely a little excessive.

I had a chance to try medivh before he was disabled. he was awful in this mode. didn’t finish my quest to the last boss. : p

That’s probably because there’s only one team, so:

  • it only needs to find 5 players instead of 10
  • it doesn’t need to try and balance both teams’ MMRs (though I’ve read Brawls don’t do that anyway; IDK if it’s true).

That’s also (one reason) why vs AI usually finds matches much faster than any PvP mode too.
