How many heroes do you play in ranked?

General Discussion
1

My biggest weakness in ranked is my desire to play every hero. Ive played 35 different heroes in ranked this season. Those of you that have ranked up how many do you restrict yourself to?

In my league no one plays tank

So like Johanna ETC or Tyrael

3

let’s see.

Often:
Leoric
Tracer
Raynor
Malthael
ETC
Greymane

Sometimes:

Mal’Ganis
Fasltad
Li-Ming
Xul

If I have to heal.

Rehgar
Lucio
Sometimes Stukov

So about 6 heroes regularily.

I suggest playing a few heroes often to get more consistent results.

4

Regulars:

Hanzo
Sylvanas (these 2 are my go to picks)
ETC (my next pick when everyone pre-picks assassin)
Johanna
Anduin
Auriel
Lili
Xul
Dehaka (bruiser is my least fav role but will take it if needs be)

If I feel I need to im comfortable playing Greymane, Junkrat and Diablo too but not quite as settled as the rest, I feel less consistent as these, sometimes do some amazing plays, sometimes fail spectacularly

5

The 3 ungankable solo laners that can double soak just fine.
D.Va, Yrel and Leoric.
If I need more wave clear and on a big map, I’ll take Ragnaros.

For mages, it’s Mephisto or Tassadar.

For tanks, it’s Stitches. I’ll take Muradin if I need mobility.

For healers, either Anduin or Alex.

I don’t play AA dps much, but if I’d have to, I’d pick up Zarya in a 2 lanes or Greymane in a 3 lanes.

That’s 12.

6

Rexxar, Sonya, Ming, Samuro, Rehgar, ETC, Johanna, Thrall, Kel’thuzad (rare), Lost Vikings, Fenix, Muradin, Varian, Kharazim.

Dozens of others but at a lower skill level.

Feeling the pressure to learn Cassia though given how much of an inevitable pick she is now, if she somehow escapes the first bans. Also feeling fairly large pressure to learn Imperius, a few people already complained if we didn’t get him.

7

Alarak, Tassadar, Fenix, Zeratul, Probius, non-hero bully Artanis, Mephisto, Muradin, Stukov, Abathur, Blaze and Dehaka.

8

Orphea / Li Ming / Jaina / Ragnaros / Nova / Valeera / Arthas / Artanis / Sylvanas / Zagara / Yrel / Diablo yes i play tanks but rarely :heart: Tyrande :heart: / Forales / Ana / Alexstrasza / yes i also heal in ranked at least used to but since i stopped playing ranked due to it being a clown fiesta but yeah these what i play when i used to play ranked. Tracer / Sonya / Valla / Murky / Thrall~

3 heroes. Lili isn’t included in that count but I could play her too

10

Going alphabetically:

Alexstrasza
Anub’arak
Artanis
Blaze
Cassia
Dehaka
Diablo
ETC
Imperius
Johanna
Li-Ming
Lucio

By number of matches played, my top 4 are probably Anub, Artanis, Blaze, and JoJo. I have other heroes I would be comfortable playing in SL (I play them in URD), but haven’t had the opportunity recently. These include Tyrael, Malthael, Anduin, Mephisto, and Deathwing.

Orphea / Li-Ming / Jaina / Artanis / Cassia / Alarak / Raynor / Abathur / Valla / Yrel / Whitemane / Valeera / Lt. Morales / D.Va / Dehaka
I thank that many of these heroes could find them in the Ranked.
