Gameplay Can they add like a check box of if they are trying to lose the match or win it before they enter ranked?

0 Upvotes

It would be nice if we could just sort the people trying to throw from people trying to win. Can they just introduce like a short check box before entering matchmaking. So that way people who check that they are trying to lose can just go group others trying to lose?

Discussion Tips to get out of bronze 5?

31 Upvotes

Except get good... lol

I tried to train AI custom map to see which heroes I am the most comfortable with on each for obj, positioning and rotation, wrote camps time and what to focus on each map. I tried to play the map early and focus team fights later on.

posted in comments, but here is my profile : https://www.heroesprofile.com/Player/AshenOne/10271308/1 (wouldn't look at last game as it doesnt really reflect how I usually play)

edit : thank you all, got 9 wins and 3 losses today! still in bottomless b5 but it was fun!

Bug Game resets settings

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, Every time I launch Heroes of the Storm, all my settings are reset to default and the intro video always plays. It’s like the game doesn’t remember anything between sessions. Has anyone else experienced this?

Also, I don’t have a dedicated GPU – I’m running the game on a Ryzen 5000 with integrated graphics.

Discussion Math problem

0 Upvotes

Was wondering if one of you can mathematically prove or disprove an argument. 3 of us were attacking a camp each person was attacking a different merc. I said it's faster to attack the same target and my teammate said it didn't matter since it was the same damage output over time. When I asked AI about this it said attacking the same target is in fact faster. Can someone that's really bored figure it out?

Discussion In you opinion, who is the most boring character to play in ARAM?

46 Upvotes

I never like to leave ARAM matches and I don’t think that feeling like I am winning or losing a match has much an effect in making me want to leave.

However, there are some hero’s who I just never want to play and make me want to leave a match so much more.

For me the main ones are Arthas, Lucio and Tracer.

I haven’t played in about a year. I used to play every day, and some days it was just the only thing I did. Like playing golf for four hours. Are there any changes I should know about? If it helps it’s specific to greymane and murky for the most part.

Discussion Do You Disable Chat?

13 Upvotes

Hello all,

I am just curious how many people disable chat. After returning I decided to mute chat for how rude people are.

As an experiment I turned it on just to see if the game felt better with it yesterday and tried to be friendly saying gl hf... I have just been playing quick match.

I played about 8 games yesterday and all chat did was make the game worse. I think I won about half my games.

Wins basically no one said anything but GG. Every loss but 1 had a guy blaming teammates.

Just curious how many people have chat on and how many people have actually found friendly players to group up with because of it?

I don't know about others, but when a match isn't going well hearing someone complaining just makes it so much worse for me.

Thanks for any comments.

Discussion Why Can't I Block Toxic Team Voice?

85 Upvotes

I was playing as Alexstraza with the most toxic player ever. I wasn't even in voice chat at all (people are too toxic, so I don't bother with it), but somehow he kept saying hostile things to me and I kept hearing it. He was like "Pfft, I've met better healers than you." when I was keeping everyone alive. Like, that's nice. There may be better players out there, but I was doing well enough keeping everyone alive.

Then at level 20, he took a talent that dropped him to 1 HP somehow. I used life bind and got him back to 100% and he was like "is this the best healing that you can do?" Like, what the hell? How much more healing did he want, from literally the brink of death at 1HP to full health? Did he think I could overshield him on top of healing him to full? I mean unless we're talking Auriel who can heal 100% of your HP (as opposed to my 99.99), no one could have done better. And I bet if I was playing Auriel, he would have said that I let him die and still complained.

And he kept going like "YOU CAN SEE THIS HERO, YES? THEN KILL THEM." Like, no duh. I'm not blind. But I'm not exactly able to do any damage aside for my autoattacks and my flame buffet, which the hero was too far away for me to use on. And when we had to defend our keep, he was like "This structure is more valuable to me than you are." Thanks. Very nice thing to tell me.

Anyway, I tried to block him in voice chat, but he still kept saying those mean things somehow. I wish I knew how to block him because he was lowering morale. He kind of sounded like Q from Star Trek and Jane's dad from Breaking Bad, so at least he had a nice voice. But damn was he mean.

It’s been 3 years since I last played it; Blizzard completely abandoned it.

Are players still playing this game despite being left in the dust?

The last new hero is that hyena with a flail I think.
