Heroes never die
Inb4 Mercy is the next hero.
hmm according to my quick matches this is inaccurate
@@aaronolson6736 No, please no, it's almost been a perfect year, please don't put an Overwatch character in at the last second.
NotParadox is a Hero of the Storm!!!! Play hots people and keep it alive!!!
Right on man, HGC is not a thing for now, but this game is still fun to play and I'm not giving up on it anytime soon 😁
"we don't need to worry about pro players anymore"
Too soo, man, too soon.
He is a savage like that
thanks for continuing to publish educational hots vids!
So thankful for your really informative videos. I don't have a computer so I can't play heroes of the Storm yet but I will save up for it. Thanks to you, I won't be too terrible
Good luck with that I hope we can welcome you to the Nexus real soon!
Very good guide. Thanks a lot. This really helps understanding the role.
Splitting it up into early, mod and late game is huge.
I will watch this over and over again, because I can't keep it all in mind at once. :D
Good to see you putting out A1 content still after the hard news. I moved from HotS to DotA but my heart will always belong to HotS. Love your videos and I hope you'll be able to keep doing what you do.
Hypocrite! xD
Then why did you move? Because there will be no HoTS e-sports? Lol
Avenphilus Well Blizzard said themselves that they also stripped down the dev team to basically maitenance status
@@confidential5743 If you had actually read the announcement, you would know that is not true
@@Avenphilus "We’re also at a point where we need to take some of our talented developers and bring their skills to other projects. As a result, we’ve made the difficult decision to shift some developers from Heroes of the Storm to other teams, and we’re excited to see the passion, knowledge, and experience that they’ll bring to those projects." They stripped quite a bit of the development team for other project
Thank you. This video is good quality as usual and comes at a time even when people like to jump on the 'dead game' hype train. Sure HotS took a major blow, but with people like you it will survive. I still love the game and will carry on playing it.
Shoutouts to Evasion for proving that laptops don't have to be just an excuse for not being the best
Well if you use a mouse there is no problem, but there those "special players" that use the trackpad to play any game
ME262MKI LOL! Now I imagine BxAEvasion playing on a laptop with only his touchpad and even without a keyboard. :D
ME262MKI I play on a laptop with a mouse and lag seems to be the biggest struggle, but I wouldn't be surprised that some people use the god-awful trackpad XD
Andrew Buelna I play on a laptop as well and I'm totally comfortable with it.
But mouse is a must. :D
I once watched 5 minutes of a replay with only my trackpad... Don't ever try this at home kids. XD
EDIT:
But hey, there are also people who play like this:
th-cam.com/video/AEZbYcXSCXs/w-d-xo.html
So trackpad might be a thing in pro scene, if you want to humiliate your opponents... XD
I've never had a problem with lags with my mouse and laptop, but i'm one of those special people using a mouse without cable. so i've had two games where the battery went out^^
thank you so much for making,sharing this video, I have been looking for a good lane info video, this is it. Took me a month to find it, but here's one. The more I hear, the more I learn and wish I knew already. This information is extremely helpful and valuable.
Great video Paradox. Very helpful as usual.
Who says you can't carry in HotS? I mean yeah, everybody is doing their job, but its obvious Evasion is shouldering more than his own weight.
yeah but what if his team kept fighting while he wasnt there in 4v5s instead of waiting for him and taking the fight with xp lead?
but why not just play dota where you can carry for real?
@@mikehunt3426 Then they're throwing? What is your point.
@@HotdogSosage that you can't carry if your team doesn't want you to carry or doesn't utilize the advantage your carry gives to the team.
@@Tomato_of_Doom then you have a problem with a retarded team. There is Dota if you want less team play. There has always been that option so not entirely sure why anyone would move to hots for that
Videos like these help me getting better a lot.
Thanks for sticking with the game.
Thank you so much for the guide! I don't really solo lane (except for Murky) but I'm still trying to understand macro concepts and what is important in the game.
Good luck in your games everyone!
Holy godmode, this Yrel play is just...oppressive.
there is a reason yrel was nerfed once with mana and once with the level 1 talent that made her viable (this replay is before that patch)
saw Yrel on the video.. never clicked so fast ! Nice video I have Yrel meanwhile on LVL 104 and i have extreme fun on here even i m not really rank in HL at the moment mb this vid its my soultion for that
I am living for these videos.
I love your content so much dude! Thanks
Can you do a video on why the Pros don't play HoTS?
Savage
Edgy XD. Hehe
good one
You are a monster
Too soon.
Love your vids, great for the community my man :)
I'm still upset that her level one talent got hit with the "When you abilities HIT AN ENEMY HERO" nerf bat.
Great stuff as always broseph. Cover the roles of each class now. What healers should be doing/focusing on early/mid/late, assassins, etc. Well done.
Thanks for mentioning the the mouse thing..that was confusing lol
But in low rank people fighting the entire game I don’t know should I join them or go soak if I tried to soak we will lose some people which mean xp for the enemy team and losing objective later because one or
Two players in your team are died finally they will spam pings On you flame you and may even report you for not joining them in fights
Yeah it's hard, but there is a way to make this less of an issue, be polite, I mean when the game starts say "hello, gl hf", engage with your teammates, after the obligatory lvl 1 fight ask someone to cover a lane, talk with them. The best way to combat flamers is with civility. This won't make all flamers disappear from your matches but it will make the flamers that flame because they get frustrated disappear and also the ones that don't know what to do, just talk to them politely and if they are being douches just keep being polite and try to rally the team using victory as a reason. GL
New players don't understand the concept of solo laning. And solo laner is the hardest role in my opinion.
I sometimes say things in chat like "I can't do much before level X" or "stay safe, because I can't be around in many team fights before level x". This sets a different expectation.
Also I would say in low ranks you can soak a lane that is close enough to your team, to quickly join in for a fight if necessary.
But when to join a tf is one of the hardest things to calculate as a solo laner.
Yep, there are matches when people say stuff like "there is no laning in this game" and then you can't really explain everything to them. Try to soak as much as possible and get every advantage you can while not playing too greedy. Like Larry said, either be nice or just mute them and play your game
@@djS0nics Totally right, I love soloing with Azmodan, but in lower ranks this may be hard (specially in early game) because your team won't understand what you are doing, same thing with Abathur, Zagara, etc. there are some pretty special heroes.
Larry Lewinsohn right now as you mention Azmodan: he is probably good for soloing in low ranks. His Q has an enormous range and with Greed you can "join" a team fight that is happening in the other end of the map.
Plus if you cast your D, whenever it is off cooldown it gets a good chunk of XP - especially if you cast it in a completely unoccupied lane.
Once you get used to it, you will be able to cast D on the other end of the map right in the middle of a 5v5 team fight.
Sidenote: I would recommend playing Azmodan in the 4-man (not solo laning). Stacking his Q is a lot easier when more enemies are around.
Sidenote: I don't usually recommend picking Greed at level 1. I usually go for Wrath, if I'm sure I can land enough auto attacks, or Gluttony if I can't.
What a dominant Yrel. Impressive
Nice Video. Can u maybe make a Video and show the different ways to stall minionlanes?
I wish you'd show yrel gameplay after the nerf because the lvl 1 is very impacting
I would tend to agree with evasion regarding camps, especially when you are not playing at gm or master level. Unless you send someone to cover for you I feel like you lose on soak, and if you're sending someone to cover at that point you may as well just have your team take the camp. You also have to worry about your team fighting while you're busy, especially at lower levels. I'd rather have higher team fight impact than camp ability.
That's the type of content I sub for ! Keep the good work :)
I wonder why you put only one ad.. I rarely see any 10+ min video with less than 2 ad's and your video is 1 1/2x longer :o
use adblock?
@@petrkoutny2449 you didnt understand my point
yeah notparadox is a very "wholesome channel" he seems genuinely passionate about his channel, not the guy who makes a video exactly 10 minutes for more ads
Hi paradox. Can you please make a top 5 or top 10 of the best heroes in each role please?I mean top 5 healers, top 5 range assasins ...
Top X best heroes is a volatile topic because of patches and balance changes. I think the better question is, how to identify what qualities a hero should have for each role.
No, because that tier list that I ask is one of the best heroes right now. That then there are changes does not matter because they have always been tier list of the HGC regardless of whether there have been changes before or after.
@@proplayeruniverse6650 Just look up a popularity list or something like that if you want to get a ranking. If you are looking for the best heroes for yourself to learn to play; the measure of how good a hero is will depend mostly on your skill and practice with that hero. I would suggest playing a few heroes, see which ones gravitate towards you, and then learn all you can about that hero.
ProPlayer Universe Top X heroes are a very personal thing. I mean looking at winrates will show you which hero fits the meta. Popularity will show you how many people *think* a hero is good. (Both here: www.hotslogs.com)
Both (winrate and popularity) will be different in different ranks.
When it comes down to strongest heroes, you should consider your own strengths. Do you have a good map awareness and can you multi-task well? Then the lost Vikings might be your hero.
Do you have a good eye for enemies who are out of position? Punish them by tossing them into your team with a Diablo or a Garrosh.
Are you a person, who will bodyblock all skillshots, that are aimed at your backline? Muradin might be your thing.
I highly recommend looking at your own, personal strengths and winrates at hotslogs to find your personal top 5 in each role.
Also you can look up general winrates for each hero and each rank there.
I hope this helps. :)
TL;DR:
Top X heroes are a very personal thing. Play to your strengths and look at your own stats (especially winrates).
random guy is the best
Excellent video. I play pretty much the same with my solo laners. But I still get diamond every season. Guess I'll play more hours, so I can reach Platinum.
One of the heroes I feel is really good when versus but i do s*** when playing it
man I had this crazy 42 min game where i just went pure Q talent on uther and my friend was Abathur and we had a Thrall and a jaina and someone else i forgot. this was on garden terror and somehow we were actually winning team fights and ALMOST won the game it would have been epic.
By the end of it I had 160k healing and 210k TANKED AS UTHER
love your videos so much man
Oof. Watching this almost a year later, went to check out the twitter and that account no longer exists.
At around 10:25 you are talking about wave stacking it seems. It should be the opposite I believe as you are killing the back minions that do damage and letting the wave build up attacking the beefy front minions.
Great guide! Thx u!
This is a great guide but things will definitely change with the exp rework
in lower level games it barely has any change, in higher level games you sit afk until level 20 pretty much, respond to enemy pushes and just soak
What is your opinion on attacking structures directly? Heroes like Greymane, Illidan, Jaina or Zul'jin can push an empty lane very fast.
17:10 what the heck he just mounted instantly!
Yrel has a talent for that :)
Could you do a Nazeebo video. I think his balance between stacking and team fighting is an interesting challenge also I feel like spider build is better if you can hit it, but most people seem to go toads. Thoughts?
spiders for earlygame and more damage, toads for enemy teams without brains
play him the exact same way you would play jaina or kael'thas, in 4man and focus on waveclearing
Honestly, the enemy Brightwing had so much potential this game that was wasted by not picking wind and a few other talents. She also blinked to death too many times so that costed her life.
blink heal is fine, it fixes one of the problems bw has, low mobility
I wonder about one thing though. If you decide to join your team, do you want to arrive before the fight starts or while the fight starts? And if it depends on the situation, how can I tell the difference when I should arrive?
I know this video is about macro but he interrupted the hanzo jump and the muradin jump, which resulted in the first two kills and xp lead. Massive little outplays with big impact imo.
and Anub completes his regen master 2 seconds before the game ends, yeeey ... why do people even pick that talent, it takes forever to complete and before that it doesn't offer much, the majority of fights don't last that long so the extra regen doesn't do much.
Maybe it's picked just because his other talents aren't that great.. thoughts anyone?
Great video
put build in descriptions for quick reference after you have watched the video?
First! Love your vids
“Push the minions into the towers so that they die when there are no enemies nearby”. You can outplay that by hiding behind the wall for some time, cant you? I mean, the enemy uses his resources to push his wave and you just come out and collect the exp
then you will slowly lose structures as you are waiting for the full wave to die, meanwhile the opponent already killed the next wave
in short you will be behind the whole game
If you spot the enemy hiding behind the gate, you can freeze the lane and deny xp that way as well. It depends a bit in how necessary double soaking is.
His twitter no longer exists. Could someone link me to his twitch?
What are some good solo laners? Besides yrel,thrall and Phoenix? Love your content
Murky is awesome and he also has the ability to play like an assasin
Raynor is a good add too, Murky is good but I speak as someone who goes against a lot of them on league lol
@@RbDaP jaina can also be added to the list not only because she has good waveclear but also because she can easily solo camps once you get the icy veins talent
stitches afetr this rework :D
Malthael also is a good solo laner
would highly not suggest picking holy avenger as long as templars verdict is a really insane talent
it's not really fair to compare exp soaked in this specific matchup as thrall has almost negative waveclear compared to yrel, and bw should have been soaking a lot more
matchups is not something one should talk about i agree on, there is a reason Ryoma never updated his chart after a while, and the chart created around 3 months ago by jhow and a few others was decent, but there was an insane amount of incorrect information
i personally play leoric and dehaka the most from my offlane pool and picking up camps is such a waste of time i find as you give up double soaking for wave pressure, one of your teammates should do it instead rather than padding out their damage stats
This was a decent video
@20:49 Unfinished game text! “Notification Text”
The replay system is weird like that.
14:01
Exp visual bug? Or is this an old version?
this is a very old patch
@@HimariHimatsu got it, thanks
12:06 Nice segway into current events right there.
whats a big camp
Bruisers or Boss for example.
Would like to see a guide from a game that wasn't an absolute faceroll..
i wonder why he never tried to focus on fort and keeps. he's just rotating
His twitter doesnt exist anymore?
how can i find your all builds ? Do you have a website or spreadsheets ?
either use heroesheart and look up builds from people who know how to play the game, such as rich or zaelia, or take a few mins to read what the talents actually does and figure out yourself what would be good in that situation
This game is so simple.... wow
100% sure there is no other option than Maraad insight
Huh?
Structures aren't worth co anymore?
Need to show a good counter player for all these Zagara players in qm
chen, its the BEST
chen, illidan, fenix all auto wins against zagara in lane
Is that MFPally? :D
I love that xp contribution
not even early
how the hell did he jump then mount up that quick 11:49
divine steed at 7
So helpful advice, but im sad this game is dying..
can you do why the pros don't play lili ? i'm tired of getting her on my team :)
b/c you can't choose who you heal. Otherwise she's pretty good up until like platinum
Well, i mean... pros don't play any hero now.
@@jairomelchor8024 too soon
@@crazypieman9 As support player i can't tell you how many times I cursed because of this, tho i will not lie, i really like the Blind build on Lili against AA setup, won good number of games because of those blinds
Ez. She cant target her heals. No burst heal unless its her ult. Her ult can be interrupted.
this Yrel is my aspiration wtf is this bullying
Ikr?! I think I've found the Yrel player to keep an eye out for. I've been wanting to learn Yrel, because right now I'm trash with her.
@@Draeckon i suggest you don't play her after the nerfs as she is pretty much a dead hero now with her sustain removed, the biggest thing that made her oppressive to play against
She's fine. I'd say she's balanced better now, and still a top solo laner.
@@chrisneto she is a dead hero after the nerfs, don't play her
@@HimariHimatsu her nerfs to maraads insight only exacerbated her solo lane weakness; a strong ranged laner. Her early game solo is still effective and her late game teamfight is unchanged. If she's dead to you, you aren't playing her optimally.
Why do you say that structures dont give XP anymore when it clearly gave you 1,200 XP.
Old video on an even older replay. Since structure XP changes, forts and keeps don't give direct XP anymore. Instead, you get more XP from then on.
Spreadsheet for detailed XP breakdown:

For reference: 13:53
Twelve hundre... What? You've lost me here 🤣
sooo, no more why pros play _____? ):
Can't solo lane with a normal solo laner, must advice an hero such yrel shit
are you a pro player NotParadox?
chen is the BEST sololaner, change my mind
struggles against sonya and a few others, chen wins against every ranged offlaner however
I'm afraid you may not have a mind.
@@eleSDSU do you now any1 who can bully zagara mate?
@@arekk6470 fenix, chen, illidan, yrel
@@HimariHimatsu i dont fenix can handle that evil
We need to stop cyber bullying.
Malthael: No one can stop death
#1 tip: Play against a shit hanzo that has no place in GM.
Atleast don't show pre-nerfed Yrel footage for a up to date guide.
It's about sololaning not Yrel.
@@eleSDSU Still, it's a little misleading showing how powerful she is in that state, compared to now.
@@eleSDSU And the XP system has also changed gameplaywise, so it's out of date to show the gameplay.
@@emiljjj If the video was about Yrel I would totally agree but it's not. The video is about the mentality of the sololaner and where to be at certain times, how should you approach the laning phases and transition from early to mid and mid to late game. Yrel is circumstantial and unrelated really, most of the time I solo Malthael and the video applies to him just as much as it does to Yrel or any other sololane heroe.
Why are you talking through ur nose?
"Solo laning"?, i like to call it "dueling", "solo laning" sounds more like a bot player will do, like those Zagara and Valla "mains"
offlaning is used by most people who takes the game somewhat seriously and is a better world overall
Hots RIP :-(
F
??? because HGC is off ?? :)) out of all the players that play this game how many do you think participated in the competition ?? 1%?? 2%??
It's a dead game only for those. For the rest .. not so much.
dead game
