My 2 cents I played 5 games at release and came to the exact same conclusion. In ranked I counter them with mainly zeratul because he is more flexible than nova. They are free stacks. The level 1 talent with globes is just amazing But will require a lot of micro. It's quite hard to loose against their stuff when you have played them lol. Things to do: soak lanes where nobody is with big blue, especially in fight where nobody is on the lane. In TF: Use everything before ult and position...

Yes you are right. About Kerrigan I don't know if she faded that much. She is quite different, but Sprint brings something different on the table. She has less potential but still chasing in sprint during maelstrom can be devastating, and on a chase it gives room for throwing everything again. Played a bit raynor and true that to me he doesn't seem a nuisance to odin at all(quite the oposite lol). But his Q remains crippling and can turn fights if casted on your at the right moment.(and it's...

Imho Kerrigan and Raynor are both solid counters to Tychus. They both provide reliable control over your Q spell, denying your dps. Getting caught while morphing or out of cds by Raynor results in death too. Raynor's Q spell also can get reseted during a fight, usually canceling your Q spell with it results in far more value for him while he will outcarry you during your downtime. You can always play around Raynor's stun but in the end, except if you are far stronger and have a better team...

Tier 1 talents are all equaly bad. The regen added on creep really sucks hard too, what it brings is greatly situationnal at best, Zagara is squishy and has no escape mechanisms, if you play the trade early something goes wrong anyway and even then it may not have impact at any point in the game. Imho it all comes down to the map. Demolitionist is great on mine, on a 4 lane poorly contested it can lead to fort down before first mine... Baneling range can imho see some plays in some maps too...

My few cents because it's one of the best guides out there. Hence I mostly solo/duo queue in ranked like 90% players out there I may advices few changes still. lvl7 talent: Wave of light brings a lot of mana sustain and some CDR so you can use it more often and Clairvoyance is also quite good as it is too. Cleanse is extremly strong against a lot of things and can turn the side of a battle, for example on a tychus diving in with his Q spell, it can make him unstoppable greatly enhancing...

It can be missleading hence it shuffles players skill. But yes having bolt giving 5% more chances to win really isn't that much, hence generally better players use the blink more often while you see it more rarelly at lower skill. I don't think following this kind of stats is relevant, better make your own judgements on experience or at least constructive reflexions. I really think that upgrading this ultimate isn't necessary hence it's too situationnal, while bolt gives an escape or...

So you max windfury and do not take bolt... It works against crappy opponents I'm sure but imho it is a really bad build overall. Thrall has in his kit ways to be more effective than this while being less obvious in his moves. I agree with envenom because as a melee "dps", having that extra damage source is great. For the record if you are into not taking bolt, just use the second ultimate. The upgrade is a better shield of storm for your team and it synergises better with...

The thing with this build is that you need instant follow ups after jumping. I strongly believe that spell shield and stoneskin are mandatory like almost any time &nd that slam is Sonya's strongest dps tool. BUT in the other hand it's more complicated doing damages reliably with slam when behind or against decent lineups, so I often prefer more versatile skills like Ferocious healing at lvl7. In theory your build is working, but in practice very often you'll face stiches and bws or...

There isn't really push atm in the game. Some organised teams can overwhelm and do objectives + push and end pre 8mn consistently on 3 lane maps against non organised teams(faced a full team, very organised with abathur asmodan few days ago, 8 then 12mn wins and never seen them again, well it works but they were winning most of their fights and were far more efficient at everything on the map). But in solo queue or low/mid skillcap you can't really push to win. Not coming for the trades...

edit: Ah yes forgot about bolt of the storm. It's imho mandatory on Diablo no matter what build you chose. Both ult upgrades are fairly situationnal while Bolt synergises too much with his skillset at first place. Bolt + combo is better than Tyrael's ult when you think about it. And with the impact of body blocking and kills later on(no buybacks meaning that if you kill a key hero especially in a team VS team) past 25mn mark you greatly improves your chances of winning the game. Also diablo...
