Sylvanas and how they killed the game with her

General Discussion

Hi I like my special order to be downgraded to “Plain bread with a different color”

Jokes aside, no. Items do help with variaty but I think thats the talent systems point. Atleast it was suppose to.
It was suppose to make you decide per level if you wanted more utlity, more defense or more damage. That was the core concept.
It didn’t work well so now we have “talent builds” , “Combo builds” or “Heroes with 1 build but 1 or 2 interchangable talents” (looking at you Ana)

As for everyone saying Sylvanas been nerfed to the ground.
Old Sylvanas was someone you couldn’t leave alone. She became the reason Haunted Mines was pulled from Rotation. As her specialist powers were too great vs other specialists in the game.
Other specialists slowly could compete against her when her drain ammo talent was removed sicne others could drain the ammo of towers and forts faster then her. Infact… sometimes her stun became a determent since it made towers conserve their ammo!

Ammo system became removed and who was the 1st to get an instant rework? Sylvanas. After already getting 1. Why? Cause without Ammo drain possibilities… she is the only one who can shut down lanes with her W and E easily.
So ti became auto attack only and i was fine with this.

But now they downgraded her specialist too much in my opinion too.
But they brought back her damage from the old days.
I never played Sylvanas to push lanes… I always played her as a DPS assassin with a building stun. And that’s what she is now.

If her talent was the only reason she was good… you never knew her that well.
I seen all her itterations and I will say her 1st major rework BROKE her dps and improved her siegability… now they reverse it again.

Lisent up so old and high game xp-ed like Bax and me( Brutalnot).
Alright…lets look whole siuacione with different point…
For an axample you are new player in game and start play her a lot and practic…after long time you start habituate with her and current versione and start think about her…“damnt this heroe is so good”.
Mine point is …problem in yours thinking a not in changes !! BECAUSE EXIST SO TERRIBLE PLAYERS LIKE YOU HERE IN THIS SYLVANAS TOPIC!!
JESUS… YOU ARE SO MANY AND I DONT CARE WHAT THINK ABOUT MINE POINT.
I ALSO PLAYED NEW SYLVANAS AND I CANT AGREE WITH YOU (NOT YOU Bax)… ALMOST EVERYONE HERE IN THIS TOPIC.
THAT WHY WE CANT CLIMP UP…BECAUSE YOURS SH.T THINKING!!!
And Bax… you chear up me man…(“gave me five”) SAY AT THESE “GREEN”," YOUNG",“DEATH BRAINED” FROGS"…
Damnt im feel tired from them…

You guys are s h.it…wtf you think?! She now have now slow,stun, dagger ignore armor talents,heal builds…and his old mind control was unfair(100% kill). Enswer me what other heroic skill can help for 100% kill?! And 100 % kill means everytime whenever be used,not by a chance and astimatione when be used in right time!!! DONT TRY TO THINK! .She now is so good! Thinking is not for you,even dont try! Im not surprised why i cant climp up in Ranked…cause yours sh.t thinking.

Welcome to the Chen club.

Then again, we still have our barrel, so we’re probably more useful than you right now. Ouch.

Well, if you notice, the SPECIALIST concept has been removed,

this game is a TEAM PLAY ,
before, sylvana players would stick to a lane n do siege damage keeping a blind eye to the entire map,

I know a sylvana player, i mean in recent time, last game i played with him was 3 days ago, i call him GOD SYLVANA , with approx 10 kills, and massive damage, along with gud siege damage,

shes now a badass assasin with a specialist’s touch with her disabling forts n keep thingy,

shes much better than ever before, but only people who play HOTS as a team game would see tht,

those who play on single lane all day long, would obviously be pissed :slight_smile:

Nova is fine her q build is quite fun. But yeah Played Sylv like 5 time after rework never played after. lvl 26 Sylv

Sylvanas was in need of a rework

Most people who played her used to just use her disable building gimmick to push solo and be absolutely useless when doing everything else

Now more people are compelled to help the team

And choosing talents that help with pushing is still an option

She is just not the wrecking ball against structures she used to be

With that said she has gotten many upgrades which help when it comes to fighting against heroes and helping the team out

The freedom to choose to build heroes according to the situation and teamwork has been what Heroes of the Storm has been about from the very start

If people opened their eyes and looked at the game from a fresh perspective

Without letting the people who ramble on about how the game is dying influence your opinions

You would see that this game is still fun to play

Most of you who read this just know that there is still something about this game that leaves you unable to simply leave

And isn’t that truly wonderful?

In my heart I know that this game still has the makings of a fun game even if a lot of things we disagree with have happened lately

Have hope people!

Even if one day this game we love no longer exists

I for one would like to say my farewells to it smiling instead of drowning in hatred

If you give in to hatred

You are letting Mephisto win

It is better to uninstall via launcher or control panel, shift deleting won’t delete all unseen things from temp or registry.

Just sayin.

Im actually very happy with this “Closure”.
Alot of people claim that reworks ruin their favourite character, that its not the same, that its unplayable without giving themselves time to adjust.
I always bring Zeratul as an example that I had to leave him behind for months before I went back to learning him anew and loving him again.
So for you im happy that you found joy again in the banshee queen.

Reworks can ruin a character so much its almost unplayable. It is not the same. I do not like the new Sylvanas what so ever. Same with Whitemane now, I played her a ton the last 6 months but right now? I hate her build, either one have to adjust or stop playing. But some of the rebuilds just kills the character and soul of the hero one liked to pick.

I think Sylvanas and Whitemane (especially the later) are cheap reworks that streamline them into boredom. Same with Azmodan, I had friends arguing over how to build him. Now he literally only have 1 way to build or you might aswell stop playing him, if you go any other build.

Blizzards Hots is filled with useless talents and they just want to push quests on everything now. To compensate for lack of items.

They f*cked up with specialists, Sylvanas one among them. They killed Hots themself, no one else sure did.

Unplayable for you, for many others who liked reworks it is even more enjoyable. Whenever rework happens there are always people who cry about and people who like it. That is the way it goes
