My build for Falstad (gameplay) in Heroes of the Storm.
Keep in mind that your choice in talents may have to alter depending on your setup/map and opposing team.
This is not a guide.
Falstad Wildhammer, the Wildhammer Thane, is an assassin hero from the Warcraft franchise. He is the High Thane of the Wildhammer Clan and a founding member of the Council of Three Hammers that now presides over Ironforge. Mounted on a gryphon, Falstad can attack from the skies and fly higher to gain more vision and fly over terrain. His abilities allow him to avoid damage and fights while also dealing a lot of damage from safety

I am not going to waste your time or mine so i'm telling you from the start that this game is not finished and has major issues.
But first...what i do like : -Graphical style is charming and fresh -The mood the game sets...somehow trying to mirror Journey -The few but nice narrative music solos
And the issues : -Mouse lag in the menus and no support for keyboard navigation -You can not overwrite a already in progress game -Some puzzles bug-out and stop working -No subtitles so you may or may not understand what is going on -Frames locked at 60 -Main menu looks and is underwhelming. -Crashes
Overall there is no doubt this game is rushed and un-optimized.
It is simply another case of a great idea full of potential that is trashed by rushing a unfinished product to market...Why you ask ? I'm guessing the usual reason.
I can not recommend such a game to anyone...shame... i was looking forward to this.

Some Thrall Gameplay in Heroes of the Storm, this is basically a kill montage | compilation using the Hellhammer skin.
Lore and stuff:
Thrall, Lord of the Clans also known as Thrall, Warchief of the Horde is a character form the Warcraft universe.
Before the Cataclysm, he was Warchief of all the Horde, but temporarily gave leadership to Garrosh Hellscream in order to lead the Earthen Ring's effort with Farseer Nobundo against the Twilight's Hammer cult and elemental imbalance afflicting Azeroth.
Thrall son of Durotan was the Warchief of the restored orcish Horde and ruler of the red land of Durotar in Kalimdor.
You like the lore? Then i recommend reading the book.
Warcraft: Lord of the Clans is a novel written the novelist Christie Golden based in Blizzard Entertainments Warcraft Universe. More info:

Another RTS... another half-backed product...this seems to be the way to go for this specific genre lately...
Let's get into it...
The graphics are decent considering the price and i would like to highlight the good physics the game has.
The sound does the job and i would even consider it above average considering it always sets the correct mood without ever annoying me or being in your face.
When it comes to controls... there is nothing special here... if you are familiar with RTS controls. They could have done some improvements in this area considering you can not send units out via the mini-map. Unfortunately the units are not always responsive when trying to issue a get to cover command for multiple squads.
The range indicator is off... it either shows the range incorrectly or the AI is not working properly.
Speaking of the AI... there is some work here to be done, you can see what i mean in my first impressions video, basically the units don't always want to do what you want to do.. for no good reason.
I can not speak of the AI as i didn't get deep into this tittle. Apparently there are some issues when it comes to unit balance according to comments/reviews on steam. Always do your research before making your mind-up about purchasing a product.
Now.. i will recommend because i don't think it's as bad as people say...but with two IF's :
1) Wait for the dev to fix the issues the game has so far.
2) Wait for a decent steam discount... maybe at least a 30% off.
Other then that you can check out my first impressions video for a clearer view on the game
