That would only serve as complain fodder though.
UwU to all of you, you keep the game alive

I was expecting a nerf to Sammyâs healing % on Way of the Wind talent, or a nerf to the base heal of Wind Walk. Perhaps the Arthas changes will help keep Sam in line.
Iâm just surprised and happy we are receiving such a relatively extensive patch with many balance changes and not just the usual bug fixes.

I donât think itâs enough to make a difference in that matchup. He gets 100 more hp, and loses a bit less mana on E. It wonât be enough to bother Samuro.
Yeah, I know, but Iâve been winning more game in ranked with Samuro than I should, so I might be a little biased! As someone who enjoys playing Arthas, the balance changes are a welcomed, even if they arenât a full rework.
I see that thereâs a new PTR patch with balance updates. Iâm not gonna lie when I say Iâm kinda shocked there were no adjustments to Samuro or Valla.
Samuro can kinda just run around the map like a global hero, can always escape with windwalk and the cooldowns on his clones is just way too short. His winrate is also the highest in the game in in Plat/Diamond/Master. Iâm tired of all these un-interactable heroes like Samuro and Murky where just have to let them do whatever they want. Please add some counterplay to them Blizzard.
Valla isnât nearly as much of a problem, but a small damage nerf would be nice given her range.

HotS is not dead, great news. Thanks for caring about us. Arthas buff is welcome, Rehgar nerf too even if I am a big winner with him. Yrel may be OP in some hands now. Great work on this patch, thank you again.

Seriously⌠Instead of adding new trashy ways of bothering us with Five Same Heroes with whitemane or leoric could you just allow us to Toggle ON and OFF this mode, or just put it separately from ARAM, most of the time itâs an instant ALT + F4
When will you fix the incorrect display of Sgt. Hammer icons? swapped for lvl 1 - Ambush and area attack.
And in general, itâs time to remove the display of enemy names in the League. You can see your teammates, but not your opponent at the draft stage! This will help with stream sniping and bans from the enemy when you played the last game with someone.
They continue to deliver at a regular pace, thatâs nice ! And always a bit more ! As usual, thanks for keeping this game alive, it means a lot to some of us 
(P.S: Hi everyone, itâs been a while ! Iâm back from and unexpected break⌠Hope everyoneâs fine, see you around)

While we have to thank the people for updating the game, however, we have to point out the bugs and misleading information.
I have posted here detailed information about Arthas and his 50% damage reduction of his Frozen Tempest ability. The current patch notes donât match both the Live and PTR details of the hero.
We all here. And nice to see you back again.

Patchnotes give lvl 0 values, not lvl 1. So the numbers are going to be 4% higher when you play Trymode.

Your hero level is always 1 not level 0. Itâs impossible to have a level 0 Hero even in Warcraft 3 World Editor. I doubt Heroes of The Stormâs Editor works differently according to hero level. Feel free to give info about the Editor.
Also, if youâre right then how the tooltips on Frozen Tempest are always incorrect about ability description and combat text.
Heroes of the storm has .xml files that show the values the game uses for formulas for hero stats, damage calculations, etc etc. The game is coded to treat âlevel 0â for the base stats that then scale by 4%.
Even if youâre not looking at txt files or spread sheets, one could look at the patchnotes for base stats and then apply the corresponding exponent as the wanted level to see if it matches in-game stats.
Arthasâ damage tooltip is âalways wrongâ because of units of time. The tooltip is written as âDamage per secondâ but it deals damage twice in that interval.

Itâs cheaper to code and calculate
base * coefficient ^ level
as opposed to
base * coefficient ^ (level - 1)
or an even more expensive âfavoriteâ
base / coefficient * coefficient ^ level
and Iâm sure algebra people can further complicate it.
Or the other way around, if the hero internally starts at 0. Which would be awkward as so many things are explained and configured with levels, such as talent tiers so the UI would be full of (level + 1) expressions (you know, heroic tier is 9, etc).
Of course I donât know, just saying why it makes sense. Internally.

me when array index is 0 not 1
Increase Arthas HP a bit more. It should be at least the same as Stiches.
Anyone with a clue about the launch date?
