Why are HotS players so bad at the game?

Seriously… I have NEVER seen a MOBA community with players that have such an abysmal skill level like the HotS community. I don’t know if it’s just the game that’s busted, or if the players are really this terrible.

There’s no competition at the top levels. That trickled down to each rank

People come here due to the reputation it has for being newbie friendly and refuse to focus on improving their skill at all

People don’t care about learning and game by itself doesn’t encourage you to study everything you need to play HotS good.

Plus half or more people don’t care about winning and don’t play seriously (or don’t use brain).

They use brain

Most just use it badly

I have an example some of them don’t use it.

Me: I will go TLV off-lanner on DS
Silence
Dude picks Sonya
Me: Are you going 4 men Sonya or off-lane one?
Sonya: SHUT UP STUPID QUESTION YOU PLAY TLV

Me inside: Wtf was that

They used brain to type that insult

Honestly you’re giving great examples as to why communicating with random players is not a good idea

I don’t think newer players (who installed 2019->) even know what you mean by this and they will just attack the TLV player. They probably aren’t even familiar with the classic 4 man while vikings soaking 3 lanes strat.

Talking to them is close to pointless once they display their complete lack of knowledge of this (and refuse to go as 4).

Funny thing - I wanted to check his profile after game but I have forgot.

This game was funny. I was Morales and I used Drone ult to boost AA build Diablo during game (I even took 20 lvl ult to spam it more).

Diablo was immortal and was healing like crazy and killed people (he got MVP).

We won. Sonya at the end “WhY dId you BooSt Diablo?!11”

I honestly stopped to care. No matter what level player has (50-250 or 1000+), they still can be clueless.

My old Tassadar games were a good example of it. Same things happened like with that Sonya and my TLV.

I guarantee you no one will complain about you playing Black-Suit Spider-man Tassadar :smiley:

Just one more reason to put on that suit and play

You are walking on the thin ice, friend. Carefully with such sentences.

I have played old Tassadar even when people have complained about me. Do you really think I will start to play new Tassadar as much as old one because people are happy now to play with Tassadar?

It’s kinda bad reason. No offense :relaxed: :tea:

I think it’s a bad reason to not play our Mighty Tassadar just because people love him now

Do you only play heroes that most players hate?

If we refuse to allow the opinions of others influence the heroes we play then who are we to refuse to play a hero just because people like that hero?

Tassadar is Tassadar

Show him some love

WE ACT AS ONE!

Let me see.

I play:

  • Li Li (what is bad hero on masters), Nova (most people think that Nova players are toxic + “she’s useless”)
  • TLV (support class and requier your team to actually communicate to win + replaces bruiser)
  • Medivh (requiers your team to use portals and waveclear instead him + he mostly replaces the second dmg hero)
  • Tyrael (No cc = no tank)
  • Zarya (hero who can’t tank, can’t off-lane and needs teamplay)
  • Kharazim (you go Iron First = ‘WHERE IS MY HEALING?’)
  • Artanis (big minion)
  • Murky (useless fish)
  • Uther (bad healer)
  • old Tass (“useless piece of crap”)

So yes, half of my heroes are hated by most hots players.

I loved, love and will continue to love Tassadar as a character.

But the second main reason I have played him in HotS was because his utility and support skills. I really loved his Plasma Shield and Oracle with Nullification. I loved his old Dimensional Shift with Force Wall as ult and 3 second CD at 20 lvl.

Most his utility was replaced by damage and I don’t like it. Developers could make old Tassadar popular too without making him a damage dealer instead support.

I am support player after all!

If Tassadar could speak to you he would tell you he misses you :cry:

Please don’t abandon him just because he wears the Black-Suit now

He’s always with me.

I hope you know I agree with Tassadar being given back the Support role again

I want W to be replaced with Hallucination:

Illusions Tassadar can control and pretend to attack with

This would really help him play mind games on the enemy team

He can use this ability on any allied hero including himself

His Psionic Storm is fine. Hallucination could be an ult or E or his D.

It’s way too weak here

It needs to be a heroic ability to regain the devastating glory that was this:

Imagine a HUGE Psionic Storm like this that could be channelled forever at level twenty

Hallucination as a heroic ability just doesn’t work very well

It would have to be good

What are your ideas for a Hallucination heroic to be made good?

Previous Psionic Storm was core ability what helped Tassadar to waveclear and soak. Current version of Tassadar has more W talents to increase its dmg and make dangerous (Psionic Echo at 7 + Physic Shock at 16 + Black Hole can spam more W at 20).

My idea was - you make an illusion what can use abilities, even ult.
Abilities deal no damage. But other effects like silence, slow, stun, healing etc. work fine (with 50% value from original).

Cause all the good players have left and gave up.
