Eh, just going on history in SC2.

And Wow, League, DotA, DotA 2... pretty much any competitive online game.

Got stealth invited to the alpha today, most exciting! Will add some folks on here once I get my feet wet.

I can't wait for Sylvanas to be released. Jaina also, those are my two favorite warcraft heroes.

Do I need to actually kill someone to get an invite?

I think I'd like to try for the level 20 drawing to invite friends. Anybody here want to make a group and boost some levels?

Sure, I'd like to step out of co-op.

Shoot me a friend request, I can't find your b.net ID.

Right now co-op seems to be the only queue that actually finishes. Not sure why vs. is never finding other players, could be everyone is watching the end of blizzcon.

*wrong thread!*

I'm hopping on for a few games now if anybody wants to form a party. B.net ID is in my sig.

Do you have chat or alerts disabled? You haven't been responding.

Yep, I also just noticed I got in too. Just saw Heroes of the Storm under Hearthstone in the B.net client.

My Battle.net details available in my sig below.

is the game regioned? (I'm in the EU)

My bad, I stepped away for lunch and left the game running.

Haunted mines seems to be the most difficult map for me right now, trying to figure out when to push with golem vs killing enemy golem.

It seems like it's always worth it to defend, if their golem is stronger than they're probably pushing with it so you're gonna want that defense. If your golem is about equal or far stronger then defending will more quickly dismantle theirs and let you push a different lane than your golem is pushing and they're forced to split up or decide where to focus their defense.

I've found getting the team to cooperate and not try to 1vs5 in the mines is the bigger challenge.

If you're getting bullied out of the mines, it's usually a good idea to try to take the mercs in the center to help out.

I've even seen teams be successful at completely ignoring the mines, push both lanes, get all the merc camps, and then go defend against their Golem when it rises. At a minimum you force them to go defend instead of pushing with their Golem, and at best you can take a serious chunk out of their base. This also requires full team commitment though.

Especially the first golem, they're always weak regardless of how many skulls you have.

The main thing with team based games people don't understand, if you're saying to do one thing and your entire team is off somewhere else without you, you're the wrong person. I hate when people make bad calls, get ignored, and then blame the team for ignoring them.

I'm playing right now, friend me up if you want to join in.

I friended you up, and I want to join in, though my Battle.Net launcher has yet to show the game to me.

Love the map/gameplay commentary above. Really helps me understand the flow of battle better than their simplistic loading screens.

I met Nova tonight. We disagreed alot.

Heh, yeah, she's definitely flavour of the month at the moment. Going from 100 to 0 in two seconds is really irritating. But then again, because every man and his dog is trying to abuse her new mechanics, that means there's quite a few people picking her up for the first (or near to first) times. Most of the Novas I faced over the weekend seemed to be confused about her ability to dive, since her escape can be pretty unreliable if your team has eyes and some AoE attacks (grenade, multishot, etc.).

Azmodan has some great anti-invisible options. I ususally get extra summons, and then their burning aura. Great to send out on patrol when you are staking out the Tribute or sitting on a shrine.

I finally made player level 20, so I should get entered into the drawing to have invites sent to my entire friend list. So, if you're not on my friend list and want to get in on the miniscule chance I win, my tag is: Koz#1846

Oh yeah, same deal here. If anyone wants a chance at the invites, feel free to add me: flaxeh#6952.

You guys are awesome, just saying.

Tnx!

It doesn't have a separate friend list anymore.

Azmodan is tons of fun. That's all I came here to say.
