that escalated quickly

I've known the girl who started the site longer than the site was even an idea, she offered me the position solely because of how maturely she thinks I handled the situation.

All I did was call the admin out on their bullshit, and stood my ground without losing my temper. Which, if you know me, losing my temper is a common occurrence unfortunately.

Even if some of the memes that spawned there were unsavory. We have it to thank for great memes such as What Is Love, O Rly, and Roflcopter. It also assisted in Lazy Town becoming the meme it is today. But, for now, it seems like a vast wasteland of shit posts and a graveyard of long dead memes.

Some of us remember you YTMND, and some of us will never forget.

"ITS CUZ I AM" -how you should respond, every time

bish plz, I get symmetra and lucio POTGs all the time. Zarya and mei are really common for me as well.

You must be the minority, then. I'm a Mei main, and play Lucio very frequently; not to mention one of my friends is a Lucio main as well. I only get POTG, if I do the killing as Mei after ulting. And Lucio? Even with raw luck bumps off of the map, I have seen two or three POTGs at most. Also, Zarya has high damage capacity; making that point moot. On the subject of Symmetra, she also has high damage capacity; and with her range buff, she's broken. I don't even know why she's considered a support hero, her abilities make her more suited for Defense.

And, this complaint is a common enough complaint for a large enough portion of the fan base that Blizzard wants to change how POTG works. And, two examples, is hardly an argument when you consider there are twenty-two heroes total.

fair enough

my issues with HotS, as someone who has played both games, are as follows:

I've never played LoL or HotS at anything beyond a casual level, but I always felt with HotS that there was something I was missing. It's difficult to tell when you should go for an objective or pressure a lane and try to get something in return, especially with pusher heroes like Zagara. I also couldn't  tell where I was supposed to go in terms of lane, or predict where my opponents would go.

Small sidenote: My League main roles are generally toplane and support, and my the hero I played the most in HotS was Zagara, mostly 'cause I like SC2 the best out of blizzard's franchises.

Secondly, the damage just doesn't feel impactful. The feedback just isn't there for me; even with ranged carries or nukers, I don't feel like I'm doing enough damage, whereas in LoL or Smite (the moba I play the most) doing damage feels faster. combat feels a lot more bullet-spongy, kinda like battleborn vs. overwatch.

Lastly, team xp makes the game more snowbally and prevents you from seriously analyzing your contribution to fights, or detecting the other team's ace in order to focus them.

all this said, League has its flaws too. mostly, imo, in the playerbase. I don't feel like I can go into a game and expect to play with nice, friendly people. absolute dealbreaker imo, which is sad because I love the characters.

I like HoTS, because not only is the community not as awful as League's; but overall it's more casual. Honestly, lane isn't super important in HoTS, due to the way the different map objectives come in to play; really any hero can function just about anywhere.

And, the Team EXP is a good thing; because it promotes working toward the overall goal opposed to personal stats. It eliminates that one player being an ace, and it eliminates the showboating. If you don't combine the strengths of your chosen heroes, you lose. Overall, HoTS not only has more variety with its gameplay; but it lacks that "hardcore" mindset of League. HoTS is far more, chill out and play with your friends than League will ever be.

And, the combat flows honestly like WoW combat; which might be why I have no issue with it as a long time WoW player. It progresses better later game, of course, but overall I like the combat flow. No bullshit gibbing, everyone has a fighting chance if they play their hero right. And, as I mentioned prior, it forces team work.

And, having played the games each hero is from; and knowing their lore and background helps the "missing" feeling some folks have. I don't play a particular role, and main a few various heroes. Most from Diablo. Azmodon, Tyrael, Diablo himself, and I dabble with Zarya and Jaina.

What does purple taste like?

Psst, it's because I don't celebrate it. And, I don't assume everyone celebrates it.
