39-7-1 now following your builds. I felt the same way playing this hero as you did in the video, like I don't have very much of a presence. I'm there, I'm disruptive, I'm even making some good plays to setup kills but I don't feel like when I'm playing someone like ETC or Johanna where I can go in, hold a position and have my team rally around me. It's a weird feeling for a tank. This character was for me what Deathwing was for you, someone I desperately wanted in the game. The lore behind dreadlords in WoW is so cool so being able to play as one was something I desperately wanted.
Hope you feel better Pally, I got covid this week and had a sore throat like nothing I've ever experienced! Felt like I was being stabbed in the throat and I couldn't sleep because of it for 3 days! Better now at least
Great Mal'Ganis game. I feel like this guy is completely immortal, until I play him, and then I prove that he is not. Get feeling better and have fantastic holidays! Love what you do.
14:59 "I guess I was dismounted at some point", he says. But what happened is that he stopped the mount channel 1 frame before it happened. 22:37 That was the one thing that killed KT. He should have just kept running.
Hah, good comparison to Mundo. I don't play League anymore, but when I did, Mundo, Rammus, Orn and Tahm Kench were some of my favorites cause they can just wander around wherever they want and do chip damage for a while. "Remember, malpractice make malperfect!" -Dr. Mundo MD
Huh, you must of quit LoL recently, judging by the fact that you quoted a voice line of the new Dr. Mundo. But I find it kinda funny that 3 out your 4 champions received a gameplay update this year...I mean technically all 4 because with the items update,Ornn's masterwork passive had to be reworked as well :P
@@antonisnicolaou9212 i started around when Jhin was released, left shortly after Ornn, and came back briefly after Mundo's rework. I like the characters way more than the gameplay, and I still watch some of the champion showcases.
Just as a point of discussion regarding winrates of new champions or in heroes’s case, reworks - it’s generally a benefit for them to be released overturned purely for the purpose of testing. Get the champion or hero into as many hands as possible to screen for any weird interactions that may get missed during PTR testing etc. I do agree that maybe the winrates shouldn’t be up around the 65-70% mark. I think a good spot to aim for is around 55-60%. Strong but not completely unfair. Anyway, hope you’re feeling better and that you have a wonderful holiday season pally! You’re the best 😁
Hope your feeling better soon! Most people dont go to work when they are sick, yet you always turn up and put a smile on my face with your content. Amazing and inspirational person :) Hope you guys have a great Christmas
Hope you feel better soon. Take care and have a great holiday. There’s probably just a few people working on HOTS now, and they probably rotate in and out as needed. HOTS is no longer in active development so the small team is not very agile. We shouldnt expect them to fix stuff especially fast. Especially during the holidays.
speaking of being critical. i remember when Rexxar debuted, he got this talent to increase his skill damage to non-hero by 400%. he can literally one shot mercs and solo (duo with Misha) a boss in no time.. it last for so loooooong
Me, a former Destiny player, just loving the fact that things in this game are only super broken for weeks before they're fixed instead of literally a year or more. (not that I'm defending Zagara or any hero being OP for that long, just saying I'm super happy this game gets more care and attention than my former main game)
(just to make sure the point is made, I am not complaining about Pally being critical of the devs or whatever, I am just glad I'm not hooked on Destiny anymore)
Hots is the special Olympics of moba. There is no competitive scene, top rated players play pretty much the same as gold players. So, having op heroes really doesn't affect anything.
okay I know this a muradin A-Z but what is with the auriel addiction to Resurrection (not just this one, but ALL of em) the ults are simple. One brings someone back who HAS died, one can just stop them from DYING IN THE FIRST PLACE
unpopular opinion: healers/supports are fine being overtuned(like reghar now, like brightwing has been for months, like stukov has been since forever) for people who solo que just so they can feel impactful. in coordonated play, yea....they are ridiculous. Still, can only hope, they dont bring back the Ancestral heal usable only on allies.
Hey pally, we all know Christmas time ist the best time for advertising and the money you get in this time is good, think all would also like a solo holly terraria vid if you are not feeling that good :)
Anytime I see a healer soloing somewhere while her team is alive, I get so furious. That auriel being top had no benefit. You also could have finished the game if you moved instead of staying still, that li ming hit you so hard and it is all dodgeable. Additionally, all your team had to do was to click the core and ignore the rest, but as usual they did not.
My last 30 games with mal im 18 and 12 (earlier games from years ago make it less accurate since i havent used this build with him). The build i always use is: 1: vampiric aura. later on we take more lifesteal making this worth more than the others, and the other 2 i dont think are overly good anyway. The aoe lifesteal is just cherries. 4: might of sargeras. doubling the armor needs no explanation how amazing it is, while the other two are meme picks. 7: Black claws. This talent is when you become one of the most powerful characters in any match. The amount of damage you deal in burst provided you can auto attack in between q casts, I cant think of a matchup ive lost with it. Melts squishy heroes while out damaging tanks. You can even beat up butchers and other face roll heroes by mixing your E in when they attempt to use their big cooldowns like butchers brand. The extra damage also scales with out lifesteal. And they were insane and gave it armor reduction. 10: dark conversion. Its not a meme, just make sure if they have cc available to put your targets to sleep first then use conversion. For bm you can sit low health near a reviving leoric and wait for him, then just take his hp and kill him again, he can do literally nothing against that and wont fall for it a second time but you know his allies will flame him 13: Deep sleep. While i havent mentioned it, the strongest part of malganis' kit is the ability to shut down 3 members of the enemy team while killing the others. At best this is a team wipe tool, at worst you make enemies run away from you at the detriment of everything else. This is just a good upgrade to an already over powered ability. 16: Frenzied assault. wave of bats is far too little damage to be worth, blind as a bat is a meme and only okay if youre going full q build and have an abathur telling you where to go. assault is a decent talent, but rarely makes a huge difference, Youre either winning the trade or youll lose it slower. 20: Alone in the dark. aoe conversion is fine if youve noticed this specific team gives you situations to use it but thats rare, the slow and healing from Vanquish isnt enough for lvl 20, but reducing the cooldown of your strongest tool AND giving it the vision obscuring makes this talent much better in 80% of situations than the others. talents i think you can take and still have pretty good luck are: 1: time to feed, its not bad its just that i can almost guarantee youll get more value with vamp aura 16: blind as a bat. Like, it has the ABILTY to be amazing value, if you have a leoric and a gazlowe and a zarya and the enemy team is 6 years old. 20: wrath, like earlier, if you think the enemy will fall for it go for it. Vanquish, If the enemy team is amazing at avoiding your sleeps, well youre losing already so might as well attempt to slow them down for your allies a little. your point in combat is as main tank, works great in quick match where you probably wont get another tank or a healer, you dont need em. No other tanks can stand up to you, no squishies want to. Youre super sticky for most heroes, and if you ever want to leave make sure you know your E cooldown and when to use it to run, or when to use it to stall enemy cooldowns. You can also use it to charge into a 1v4 gank, sleeping them all then walking away wasting their time.
This hero es tankier than most tanks, right now, you don't do damge, you CC, like ETC, c'mon Paly, you are ETC, you should love malganis! Don't take sleep duration, they'll just keep waking target's up, try the other ult, at lvl 20, It sends bats that sleeps the entire enemy team once It's finish. Very team dependand for sure
100% Pally's throw. I knew it would end in disaster the minute they didn't back off after clearing mid. Shoulda gone for bot after that or just tactical retreat.
Not to speak for him but, my understanding is it mostly stems from his skull/sinuses were malformed, so he underwent brain surgery in his youth. Which saved his life, but he is still left with chronic health issues from it. So he is very susceptible to sinus infections.
I think they always let stuff run for 2-3+ weeks to ride the player hype, they want people excited to play overly strong heros as it brings them back into the game more and they probably are collecting data too

Honestly I would have prefered Tichondrius
Hope you feel better Pally, I got covid this week and had a sore throat like nothing I've ever experienced! Felt like I was being stabbed in the throat and I couldn't sleep because of it for 3 days! Better now at least
Glad you got over it!
Great Mal'Ganis game. I feel like this guy is completely immortal, until I play him, and then I prove that he is not. Get feeling better and have fantastic holidays! Love what you do.
Whenever I play against a Mal’Ganis he IS immortal but whenever my teammate or I plays Mal’Ganis he’s squisher than Valla
Seems like only good at aram. Can sleep everyone
Hey Pally, just wanted to say your vids are a comfort after a bad day - and a welcome fist-pump way to end a good one. Thanks, my dude.
"I AM A TURTLEEEE"
Mal'Ganis, 2003
Is no one going to mention that chain at 13:05 ripping Mauradon outta the air?! That was epic!
14:59 "I guess I was dismounted at some point", he says. But what happened is that he stopped the mount channel 1 frame before it happened.
22:37 That was the one thing that killed KT. He should have just kept running.
2:42 “Sorry for the weird intro”
I’ll be honest, Pally, I’m 100% here for it.
Hah, good comparison to Mundo. I don't play League anymore, but when I did, Mundo, Rammus, Orn and Tahm Kench were some of my favorites cause they can just wander around wherever they want and do chip damage for a while.

Hope you feel better my man! Great intro, honest, heartfelt, and true!
Have a great Christmas pally. Take some rest. And thx for all the amazing videos you make
Amazing Daniel, Ghoulish Daniel, love these names XD
Feel better soon, Pally! Happy holidays!
You owe us nothing, please take care of your health!

it last for so loooooong
I don't blame you on taking it slow especially with it being Christmas week, take your time and get better too
6:30 it looks like you threw the dwarf
Feel better man, merry Xmas
"Hope I didn't get that one thing that's been goin' around the world atm"....uh ohh! You were wrong.
Get well soon and Merry Christmas!!

Feel better soon Walter! Thanks for the Mr 65%
Feel better Pally!
A while ago you mentioned potentially posting some League or DotA games. Is that still on the table?
Mal: "see Mantis, i can make ppl sleep too"
Terrorblade... Gotta love it. Too bad Mal'ganis isn’t a 1V9 type of hero
You gotta go full melee damage and healing to make mal fun for me. Getting meaty autos after a Q or sleep is satisfying
Team focused Mura instead of Core at a great cost.
That final battle was intense af.
Wow, of all the youtube channels I follow this is the first one out for me today. lol Too many people on vacation already.
I thought you had it at the end and then... Almost.. GG to all the players, it was a good match
Hots is the special Olympics of moba. There is no competitive scene, top rated players play pretty much the same as gold players. So, having op heroes really doesn't affect anything.
Rhegar singlehandedly won them the game in last big fight
That li-ming was on fire
Hope you get better soon!
Great game! So close to pulling it off at the end!
Feel better Pally! Feel free to spend as much holiday time with your family as you need, we’ll wait here. :)
Always Pallytime!
okay I know this a muradin A-Z but what is with the auriel addiction to Resurrection (not just this one, but ALL of em)
the ults are simple. One brings someone back who HAS died, one can just stop them from DYING IN THE FIRST PLACE
What a close game!
I would of thought the character would of been named mister 65% win rate instead of Mal'ganis
65% of the time. He wins, every time.

Take your time and get better Pally!!
Maybe they do this "OP character of the week" to bring more people to play them before they get nerfed?
I remember watching Mal’ganis when he came out. I think I called him “more Blood Death Knight then Dreadlord.”
I mean, weren't WoW Death Knights partially based on WC3 Dreadlords and Liches? They kinda combined all three into the DK.
@@StretchyPlays Maybe, idk. I haven’t played WC3 (either versions) so I can’t say exactly
Mister 69 himself, Mal'ganis
Hope you get to feeling better soon :D

If you don't get sick 3 times a months, it's a good month for you pally lol
NOICE!
Get some rest and feel better Pally!

get well soon pally. eat oranges and stay safe at home
Great game. Feel better brohymn
Mr. 65 is here!!!
Health swap caracter of dota is Terrorblade!
Yeah late game dragons are more important than early ones. As evidenced by pally charging straight to the core like that.
Get feeling better Pally
This hero es tankier than most tanks, right now, you don't do damge, you CC, like ETC, c'mon Paly, you are ETC, you should love malganis!

I also love you Paly
After watching Doto and LoL, this looks like a bunch of bronzies ARAMing and fuck-it-roaming 24/7.
100% Pally's throw. I knew it would end in disaster the minute they didn't back off after clearing mid. Shoulda gone for bot after that or just tactical retreat.
I really, REALLY hope it's just a cold.
Why do you feel under the weather so often? :3
Not to speak for him but, my understanding is it mostly stems from his skull/sinuses were malformed, so he underwent brain surgery in his youth. Which saved his life, but he is still left with chronic health issues from it. So he is very susceptible to sinus infections.
bro you got that covid floating around
I think they always let stuff run for 2-3+ weeks to ride the player hype, they want people excited to play overly strong heros as it brings them back into the game more and they probably are collecting data too

I'm pretty sure the video creators have no say on what adds are put on their videos.
