Samuro and Alarak I think. Medivh can be but he just need coordination in the team.

For supports it will be close call between Tyrande and Ana.
Orphea, Hanzo, Samuro, Alarak, Zeratul
(quite a difference between regular buttonsmashers and the very top)

I actually cant come up with anything for warriors. Calling Rexxar warrior sounds weird…

Whitemane (healer), Vikings (support), Leoric (bruiser), Blaze (tank), Samuro, Alarak and Mephisto (Assasins).

I disagree in Zarya.
I’m between Artanis and Rexxar.
Getting good swaps can carry games.

I’d say auriel is by far the hardest healer, especially when using aegis can be a death sentence to your teammate and you need to switch around her trait.

aba just got harder with ptr changes

Oh right, forgot about these.

I was thinking zarya mainly because she has no mobility or real get out of jail free cards. Especially being aggressive with the shields.

Aba is easy as long as you understand how to play the game at a high level, not much mechanics involved.

The title says “high skill heroes,” not “heroes hailfail likes to stomp noobs with in wood 5”

You seriously make valeera mains everywhere look bad. I’m not going to pretend she’s high skill just because I like her… Her entire kit is point and click. You’re why everyone thinks valeera players are noobs.

Just stop talking about her. Your obsession is creepy and annoying.

While I agree Whitemane is a high skill cap hero, mastering her doesn’t really output more because she doesn’t have CC or high damage, whereas for someone like Tyrande, I’ve seen really good players just stomp the enemy because she has some form of CC and she can spec into damage, Whitemane doesn’t have those options.

Support: Ana - not only your heal are skillshots, but you also have to deny at the right moment your enemies heal with your granade (so lot of timing and fast decision making).
Melee DPS: Samuro - copy management is not so easy unless you have some solid RTS background.
Bruiser: Rexxar - not only you have to manage both him and Misha but you also have to make proper positioning for both all the time or you’ll just be dead weight for your team.
Ranged DPS: Hanzo - while he may seems easy to play, is really hard to be effective with his scatter shot and do a proper job.
Tank: Tyrael - I’m not a expert on this role but feels like the Archangel of Justice has the more choice to take in order to be usefull.
Special guest: Alarak - he has the potential for insane team wipe combo alone, but really hard to achieve that level of mastery.

Depends of the individual ,some heroes click more easily to some people.

This pretty much.

Even as a decent Samuro player i couldnt make Zeratul work at all for a year, now i play him with my own twist using AA build with 60% wr.

Not the Zeratul most people know and play but works for me.

For ranged I would have to say Genji. Pretty much if you can’t perform at high diamond minimum then your in for a bad time.

Q build is pretty braindead. Blink in, q squishy, maybe smack them a few times if you can get away with it, then wormhole out.

W build is hard though.
