A note on attack range: One (1) range is equivalent to the diameter of TLV's Erik's hitbox, with most ranged heroes having an attack range of 5.5. Some notable exceptions are Probius (3) and Chromie (7). Melee heroes can have an attack range from between 1 (Uther, Abathur) to 2.5 (Deathwing). Kharazim has an attack range of 3.5 while Deadly Reach is active, the highest for a melee character. Sgt. Hammer has the greatest possible attack range of 14 with Graduating Range while in siege mode. The next highest possible is 9 tied between Ana with Dynamic Optics, Alexstraza with Dragonqueen active, Tychus with Commandeer Odin and Nova after casting Longshot.
No surrender buttons. None. It isn’t necessary or a good addition to the game. There are comeback mechanics for a reason, it’s never so bad you have to give up. I’ve pulled off the 40-1 towers of doom comebacks multiple times. I’ve won matches while being 3 levels down. There’s always a chance. Surrendering is toxic behavior and should not be tolerated.
Thank you for so many years of amazing content!❤️ Day 1 of asking for the Azmodan deep dive because I miss when his summons wouldn't despawn in the Haunted Mines. ( Which made a massive game of peek-a-boo at the entrance to the mines. )
That's basiclly my build (although I like the tier 1 talent that lets you deal more damage to one target. Splash is nice, but unless they are deathballing, getting more damage on one target usually works better, especially in 1v1). Really proud on how well you did, Illidan and Vallera are two of the most difficult targets for a Hammer (with Nazebo right there in the top 10). Once you get a better feel for how much Regen-bio-steel will keep you alive (but only in siege mode) you will be 1v1-ing everyone and being disruptive as a mosquito with a wrecking ball.
the silence not being able to run thing is the same as solider 76 in OW2 not being able to sprint when sombra hacks him, it's kinda dumb asf, so if you think that's dumb on hammer imagine for soilder his legs just stop working xDDD
Which is doubly funny with Sojourn being in the game bc her legs are cybernetic so it'd MAKE SENSE for her legs, Soldier is just a genetically altered dude with fancy goggles lol
Since its on theme with the video, had a real toxic HotS game exactly when the last video was uploaded. I was playing hammer on Altarak pass, i went bot to try and sneak a tower but couldnt get it. Meanwhile Azmodan went top, and died, so Rehgar went to soak. Azmodan then immediatly begins to rage, says we have no healer and we are all throwing since im bot and rehgar is top, and gives up. We hadnt even reached the 5 min mark, this was about 2 mins in. He then hangs around to not get banned insulting all of us and taking the occasional siege camp and occasionally suicide pushing a lane before going back to spawn for some more time. This was in quick match.... He even said that the other team where trash since they hadn't beaten us yet. So i said if they are so trash imagine what we could do if he helped. Azmodan continued to hang around in spawn for the rest of the game.
So many players don't change their build for who they are playing against. They only ever play the build that they play every time "because it has the best numbers". :p
Indeed put on your big boy pants. 👖 its only 15 minutes. Also I love the community’s collective ideas about the Janitor. Like for one we all call this person the janitor and then all of a sudden they come out with a balance patch and everyone is stunned but also kind of saying “you know what go hard”
Completely disagree on the "It's only a 15 minute match, put on your big boy pants and play it.". I am putting on my big boy pants and walking away from a pointless endeavor. I'll turn off the game and go do something else for those 15 minutes. Since I'm already doing something else more worthy of my time, not going to load up HotS again like the rest of the playerbase that left.

This was fun to watch. Good commentary, insightful tips and pure unadulterated Valera roasting.
Child birthing hips valeera rofl. Ain't gonna be able to look at her the same way after that
13:15 "VALEERA BEHIND!"
me to buddy, me too

That second game had so many quoteable moments lol. Great stuff as always Pally.
Pally complaining about Valeeeera is such a great thing. I absolutely hate playing against her. Great games.
Sergeant Hammer has always been one of my favorite heroes in this game… this has always been my go to build for just reigning destruction

valeera deepdive coming soon.... confirmed? :D
It’s hard to understand people who stop playing a match because the start losing. There is no reason not to just finish out your games.
ESPECIALLY with how many vids Pally and team have clutched (or thrown - Play the Objective, Pally! :P ) when its seemed super one-sided haha!
This is probably my preferred & favorite build for hammer ya did a good job.
Thanks for the video mate.
16:50 Her tank is too advanced to use a pedal, everything is voice activated.
I started to play this game with sgt hammer. There truly was a learning curve :D I always enjoy you playing her. its just so weird character
HAHAHAHA! "Child birthing hips walking over the mines!" Well done sir.
the silence not being able to run thing is the same as solider 76 in OW2 not being able to sprint when sombra hacks him, it's kinda dumb asf, so if you think that's dumb on hammer imagine for soilder his legs just stop working xDDD

"my legs dont work cause my mouth dont work" yea, cause you cant "run" your mouth anymore

Is it just me who finds it weird neither Nazeebo went spider build against a Hammer?

i swear pally can and will make a jungle build for every character
Loving the HOTS content!
Does Life grip reduce your range? You kinda moved, but not unsieged right?
Lol apparatus pally has absorbed his inner madman and completely f bombed the whole crew🤣🤣 they gonna learn today!
