Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Zagara + Abathur Supreme Backdoor

Zagara Gameplay in Heroes of the Storm, pairing up with Abathur for a very interesting backdoor tactic. HotS Quick Match using Nydus Network and Abathur mines plus Ultimate Evolution to transport behind enemy forts and do a super quick double siege with two Zagaras. This is a niche strat but it definitely can work! So if you are bored of the sale old Zag we have been playing for months, try this out! Keep in mind that you can go for full pusher talents if you want get the siege done faster, but that will mean less Hero Damage and Utility for your team.

Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Xul Build Guide - Serpent King Skin

Xul Gameplay full Build Guide in Heroes of the Storm. In this format we go thoughts each of the talent tiers and I give you my thoughts on what's good , and in what situations. Xul enjoys great talent diversity, your build should be shaped considering the battleground you are on and the team compositions, there are a few viable builds for him and I would not recommend blindly following a single spec. HotS Quick Match using the Serpent King Skin and Cloud Serpent Mount.

Poisson Nova vs Skeletal Mages :

These are two very different Heroic abilities, with the Nova being a lot more exciting, it does high amounts of DoT but it has its down-sides. If you are not in melee range of your targets the projectiles can be dodged rather easily also its damage over time meaning your opponents have plenty of time to react to it. ( A soft counter would be Malfurion with Tranquility). Would pick this one up if I am facing a melee heavy team and i have enough CC to ensure I'm going to get decent value from my poison missiles. 

Skeletal Mages is a much more tactical ability, it may be challenging to correctly pinpoint the ideal placement. That being said, the mages can be killed / displaced easily if positioned wrong or at the wrong time. The control this ability brings in a team fight can be crucial to the outcome of a game, not only because of the CC and damage (which are not exactly stellar) but simply by their presence, cutting off escapes, forcing engagements, preventing ganks, covering escapes. Perhaps the most important thing to note is the psychological element, creating the "between a rock and a hard place" situation which can force players into bad decision.

Like I did mention Xul's builds are situational, here are my recommendations, be smart when and where you chose to use what.

Heroes of the Storm Ranked Gameplay - Xul, Crowd Control Build (Rank 1 Hero League)

Xul Rank 1 Ranked Gameplay in Heroes of the Storm (HotS). Infernal Shrines was the battleground we fought on with both teams having very good setups, the game went back and forward a couple of times before we managed to obtain a hard earned victory.

I used a CC (crowd control) build for the Necromancer Xul, as I believe this was most beneficial for my team in these circumstances, this spec is lower on the damage side but offers great control in team fights.

I was also presently surprised by a Kael player that managed to pull extremely high amounts of damage despite the recent nerfs to the Heroes suitability.

Hero League.
Keep in mind that when the first seasons starts there will be a Grand Master rating above rank1 Gameplay.

Heroes of the Storm is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment for Microsoft Windows and OS X.

With the awakening of Diablo in Tristram came a figure cloaked in mystery. Hailing from the southern swamps, long hours of study in dank mausoleums had made his skin pale and corpse-like, his figure, skeletal, and most people shunned him for his particular looks and ways. Though his goals were often aligned with the forces of Light, some did not think that these ends can justify his foul means.

Backstory :
Xul allied with a group of fellow heroes, and pursued the Dark Wanderer, a vessel for the Lord of Terror. It culminated with the defeat of the Prime Evils, but also much loss, including the destruction of the Worldstone. Despite the warnings of the Horadric scholar Deckard Cain as to what the event might portend for Sanctuary, the heroes disbanded and returned to their homes and families. Despite this, Cain would look favorably upon Xul in later years.

Xul mentored at least one apprentice, Mehtan. Mehtan looked favorably upon his master and continued to seek to preserve the Balance.

Heroes of the Storm - Xul Easter Egg (Crows)

Heroes of the Storm - Xul Easter Egg (Crows)
Just Tap the tombstones!

Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Xul Heavy Control Build

More Xul Gameplay in Heroes of the Storm, this time we are going for a Heavy CC Build. I wouldn't really recommend this specific play-stile for any situation but if the enemy team is heavy on the AA (Basic Attack Heroes) then this should be the optimal way to go. HotS Quick Match on the Infernal Shrines Battleground! I'm liking Xul more and more but there may be a issues with his skeletal minions and most of the time they die before they are able to do much of anything. I still want to explore a full Skeleton Pusher Build, but first I'll wait for a buff (Speculation!). In the following days our Melee Specialist known as the Necromancer Xul will be launched on the EU server and I will be able to bring you a full Build Guide and after I feel conformable enough with him Rank 1 Ranked Gameplay! I have little to no question about his viability in the correct circumstances. The Build revolves a lot around his Spectral Scythe (Q Ability) but it does have some flexibility depending on the team setups.

The Heavy Crowd Control Build (keep in mind my notes) :

Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Xul Bruiser Build (HotS Xul Gameplay)

Xul the Necromancer has been Launched in Heroes of the Storm, time for some Gameplay! This was my first game with our new Melee Specialist and it went rather well despite my in-experience. HotS Quick Match Gameplay on Battlefield of Eternity. I went for a more Bruiser Sustain build opting not to chose any pusher talents. So far initial impressions are very good, plenty of damage through his Q (Spectral Scythe) and his Poisson Nova Heroic Ability (R1). Certainly a worthy counter to any MELEE AA hero..not as much against range without a gap-closer. I somehow felt the need to increase my movement speed so maybe a pair with ETC would be worth-while, I am not sure at this point. Stay tuned in the following days to come for my signature Build Guide and ofc Rank 1 Ranked Gameplay.

Full Thrall Gameplay in Heroes of the Storm, Build Guide detailing viable talent picks at each and every tier. Explanations on what is good and in what situations.

Chnages to Nova increase her viability early game and late game but still don't address some of her issues. Rehgar Changes seem Impact-full, perhaps the time of the Wolf God is ending

Tracer Gameplay in Overwatch! The match was carried out on Dorado with my team on the attacking side. We roflstomped the enemy team which never really managed to stall us from achieving our objective.

Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Nova Build Guide - After the Rework

Updated Build Guide for Nova Gameplay in Heroes of the Storm. The recent balance patches brought a full rework to Nove... and well she is no longer as hot as she use to be... but that doesn't mean you can't still enjoy the master sniper. Players are still searching for what is the best way to play her and we are enjoying great talent variety but rather low viability. HotS Quick Match carried out on the Garden of Terror battleground using the Master skin and Space Lord's Starbreaker mount. We will go through the talent tiers and I will give you might thoughts on what's good and what's not

Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Li-Ming Build Guide - After the Nerf

Time to update the Li-Ming Gameplay Build Guide in Heroes of the Storm! After the nerf Liming has a gimped version of Astral Presence which turns my focus more towards mana management and the Level 1 Power Hungry Talent. Other nerfs include less shield for Diamond Skin and a bit less damage for Arcane Missiles. Maybe the biggest nerf is the bonus ability power Tal'rasha brings, down to 10% from 20%. Quick Match on the Infernal Shrines Battleground, used the Star Princess Li Ming skin and the Treasure Goblin mount.

Overwatch Gameplay - Reinhardt Bloodhardt Skin (Watchpoint Gibraltar Gameplay)

Reinhardt Gameplay in Overwatch! The match was carried out on Watchpoint Gibraltar with my team on the attacking side. We roflstomped the enemy team who chose to go with six snipers...5 Hanzo and one Widowmaker...yes a very interesting choice.
I managed to open enough chests to get 1000 credits which is the cost of the Bloodhardt Skin so I thought you guys might like to see it in action.

Heroes of the Storm (Patch Review) - Li-Ming & Rehgar Nerf (Balance Update 16.2)

Heroes of the Storm (Patch Review) - Li-Ming & Rehgar Nerf (Balance Update 16.2)

Key Subjects :

- Rehgar Nerf
- Li-Ming Nerf
- Stitches Nerf

Official Patch Notes :
http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/2...
The expected Li-Ming nerf is here, I believe she will still be viable but players need to be a bit more cautious when playing her. The Rehgar nerfs still are not enough from my point of view. Nerf to Stitches was called for... there where some cases where Last Bite was a real problem. Anub'arak changes are irrelevant.
