I have said "annnnnd you're fucked" a number of times. I laughed while also feeling bad for ya. Lately it's felt like the qm cc has been surprisingly strong lately. Thanks again for re running the A to Z. Your videos literally make me decide to play heroes I don't touch because I haven't played them enough to understand them.
Man these videos are coming out at the perfect times for me! Rough days are made way better by Pally :)
Feeling the same way. Rough mental health day, it's good to have a Pally vid to reward me for self-care. Hope your rough day gets better from here!
Couldn’t agree more. Rough week for me and these always get me excited
Pally pretty good like that
Constructive Criticism: Using your time traps in bushes around the objective can give you a lot of vision. There were a few times that could've potentially saved yourself by placing some time traps in those spots.
I thinking of writing a similar comment. But Pally did say this: 6:44
@@TheMadwizz Yeah he mentioned using them (and needing to use them more), but didn't say anything about providing vision afaik.
This right here is what was driving me nuts about his play style aside from the talents he picked. Against that particular team, he should not have gone for a Q build. Should've tried to keep as much distance as possible.
Through most of the game I was baffled by the failed use of traps. Then right at the 23.10 mark especially I'm like "Dude wtf, you're about to get ganked for sure, why did you not place traps in that bush!?!" Then sure enough 4sec later Tassadar strolls out and obliterates him. Not only would placing that trap in the bushes have secured the objective but it would have prevented his death too.
I love at 15:28 how Hammer just plows over your dead body, pushing it along with her, no sh*ts given.
I feel like with Chromie you gotta be really on top of the trap placement, especially when poking. She's so vulnerable if she gets caught
especially so against divers. painful to watch with how many times illidan just shred pally into dust.
It’s ok pally. Trying to find reasonable decision making skills in quickmatch is like trying to rediscover an extinct species.
That hammer clearly has no idea the bfg doesn't hit buildings anymore.
Yup. Even with all the Illidans, Azmos and Jainas I still would've picked napalm. Constant interrupt on objective or just enemy team diving you is the way to go.
Pretty sure he had it lined up with the wave so it was still pushing the lane & soaking

Chromie's Q is one of the abilities that I absolutely have to have as "on release", aiming the sand echoes is so much easier with that toggled
I did that for a while but once you start playing her seriously it just becomes second nature. Can secure kills from super far away just using a sand gnomie you left behind, sometimes in other lanes lol
Pally betraying The Butcher at 8:55
Literally did not even acknowledge him through the entire fight and after
Getting all assassins as a mage and having Illidan on the enemy team. Huge feels bro.
Damn, I was hoping for a quest completion, that 39 out of 40 teased me like 5 min.
Awesome series pall
"why did my team leave this vulnerable building, to get a mercenary camp"....because people think camps are god, even when the camps just die to the enemy team heroes. It's the "safe" play, and I share your frustration. People are afraid of buildings Pally, even at lvl 30. They are too scary.
#endrant
You can see the spirit healer angel thing from WoW in the graveyard (bottom right) keep on this map when you are dead. Really cool! If you click it, you get that "ress now for 25% durability cost" message! Such a cool easter egg!
Also fun fact for Chromie, she probably ahs the best voice line to troll the enemy team in game. My friends and I when we play her will use the "Yaaaaaay! voice line every time we get a kill forcing our team and the enemy team to hear her cheer for their death!
That Genji standing there broke my brain. Like. The real icing on the cake is HE has the fucking gall to whine.
Excited to see Chromie, and more excited to hear you unravel her troubled past. Remember how overpowered she was? I lowkey miss those days. XD
Can't wait to compare this salt to the coming Probe salt.. I so can't wait.
Woof, Chromie queueing into 9 other assassins. Rough times.
This video is getting me all excited about when we get to Nova :D;D
Pally I have some honest feedback. As frustrating as your team's lack of soak was there were a few things you could've done as well.
You mentioned it at the end but at level 13 you should be taking Time Out. A way to completely immune the Nova /Jaina's whole combo, strand Illidan when he rushes into you, and immune Azmodan's dunk.
Second you should actually use your Time Trap sometimes. Not only will it stop Illidan cold, but in this game the vision it provided would've been very very helpful.
Sorry to be a bit of a downer. But I know the game has been frustrating for you recently. And I also see that this game might have just been unwinnable with your team. Just a few ideas that could help to make your Chromie experience smoother.
With Chromie’s video out, I assume Dehaka is just around the corner. If you see this Pally and haven’t yet recorded his episode, I highly recommend trying out his team fight/essence build. Not sure what’s most popular, but i main him with over 60% win rate, even pushed a 2/3 or 66.7% at one time when I was still competitive.
Anyway, it’s pretty simple, regen globe talent at 1, hero takedown Essenes at 4, W CD reduction at 7, whichever for 10 and 16, AA or occasionally armor reduction at 13 and essence claws at 20. I’ve had games where my self healing reaches 130k+ and out heals even healers. It’s possibly not the popular build, but it’s quite potent and I can’t imagine playing him any other way.
Just a thought.
Like he said, Q Build you shouldn't take unless the enemy team has a frontline. Gnome Speed Ahead grants 20% move speed and 200% health regen for a few seconds after casting Q. Something neat about Chromie is that Time Traps affect vehicle objectives (Triglav Protector, Dragon Knight) and stops hearthing, including Yrel when using Bubble Hearth.
I stubbornly hang on to the chromie of yesteryear. She was the bane of all Hammers and it was lovely
Love the a-z my dude! Gonna watch and like all of em
I've noticed a similar issue with teammates making 0 sense. Today, I had a game with a full enemy team down, and all towers down.... 3/5 people were fucking around getting mercy and the nuke obj. I was pinging like crazy, only the murky and I responded to cop the win 🥲
rough game, but thanks for fighting through it for the A-Z =) love ya bud
Thanks for the upload!
That 39/40 on the quest will haunt my OCD nightmares.
Oh shit...this is my first time seeing Pally's salt and pepper beard. Helloooooooo MFPapatime
18:55 the moment I realised this is an Arathi Basin reskin.
Good effort, My Dude! I struggle on new Chromie, but Q build is busted in ARAM.
One thing you forgot to mention is that Chromies trait used to give you your talent 1 level early instead of 2.
That intro; I thought "omg! I hope it worked out! " And then it was fine
Looking good pally, hope you’re keeping happy and healthy.
lol...I am not sure, but the suffering you were going through was just funny. Now, I feel bad for you...but it almost feels like you were playing with the AIs and it was just funny. (love the mount)
Think not having quick cast on for sand blast really helps. You dont need to be quick with Chromie, you need to hit, so visualizing range and direction helps with calculating the delay.
At least that's what I experienced when trying chromie ;)
That was a good game Pally, not that it matters or that it was gonna change much against that team but really gotta spam those 3 trap charges.
Sadly, she isn't your style of character with how you play, but it is still nice to hear about her history and see some gameplay. Looking forward to Deathwing.
Just watching that at some points gave me anxiety. Being a squishy with no escape in the jungle area and being surrounded. And ya done.
Hey Pally! This might sound weird, but I just wanted to say that you look really good in the intro! I hope you are doing well and keep up the good work! :D
You mentioned it at the end, but like I've NEVER understood the character, who is a dragon that can literally manipulate time... having some of the slowest flipping abilities in the whole game xD
Like girl, what? What are ya doin' there? lol
We appreciate your persistance
That Genji deserves to be silenced. The whole game was a mess for both teams, but Pally's team just never grouped up appropriately for fights. That hardly counts as throwing.
Eh, Genji vented a bit of frustration but wasn't being overtly toxic.
Let's go. I just got my new pc and hoping to get back into games like this. The pc rounded up to 1.9k
switch your casts to on release. that way you can see where they are going to hit. you give up a little cast speed for a lot more accuracy. I have this on for just about every skillshot on all characters. it's better to land abilities slower than miss them faster. Even the pros like Fan play that way.
How to play Chromie. Be good at skill shots and utilize clones properly. Emphasis on Q ability. Spam that shit. If people start coming toward you, run until they turn around and Q them again.
Chromie is not a character that I play very often, but I have found the most luck in being in the back of my team. Unfortunately with the matchup that you had, you did not have a tank to sit behind and dish out damage. I am not one to use quick cast on any of my abilities for any character, besides tracer's blink and li-ming's teleport since I often lose sight of my mouse cursor and having visual aides helps a lot with my dyslexia ridden brain. Although for Chromie, I feel like having quick cast off so you can see the visual aides for your echos would change how you play the character, AND make it a lot easier tbh.
39 stacks you were so close!
11-3 now following your builds. I got 36 stacks on the level 1 quest by the end of the game. I was 2nd on my team in damage and only died twice. The match was pretty lopsided and I suck at using temporal loop well but not looking a gift horse in the mouth here. I remember when her level 18 talent blessing of the bronze just passively made the whole team better and it was busted I miss that talent.
I'm like you I much prefer tanks or bruisers where I can just go in, soak up damage, do some CC and let other people get the kills.
Thanks for the show, I am now afraid of chromie (playing it) without bye bye.
Glad to hear your DMV trip went well, lol.
Pally like me… still struggling with bye bye no longer a talent 😀
The Chromie rework basically heralded the end of my playing HotS; I've tried a couple of times to return, but it's the same mess. So many characters introduced with CC + sustain/improved-movement, and they removed her capacity to mitigate those things through extra range, bye bye, automatic traps, and penetrative shots. All the other characters I enjoyed playing fell into the same trap - you either played an ineffectual tentative poking dabble else you were systematically wiped out repeatedly for just fully engaging let alone over-extending.
I really miss Chromie, her quirky dragon dialogues, and her cute "RAWR!" master emote. She was a S-tier character that required a unique skill-shot play-style to be effective, and was devastating when you did so. Now she's at best D-tier with a comparatively poor offering of attributes to provide any group - yeah CC through traps & rewind kind of adds something, but other characters provide that more effectively, not limited by proximity-based manually-operated traps that need to be managed by an unforgiving frailty glass cannon character with poor mobility/escape-options and a skillshot-based attack.
Chromie was OP as fuck. Now shes fine, although with a very high skill ceiling and she does have counters (she did have them before anyway)
Chromie? D-Tier? She's easily one of the best mage characters, but takes a lot of skill to use effectively.
My man. I like your style in the face of ugly. Thanks for the laugh.
i heard some bad things about nazeebos for this video during a stream of yours and there just happens to be a nazeebo in your team... i wonder...
should have talked aboutr how good "bye bye" used to be.
This match hurts me a lot
39/40 is not to shabby. Also a squishy mage without a tank is extremely hard to play.
Everytime I play chromie I remember bye bye and get sad.
Happy birthday, usually if you need to renew your license you got old...
Illidan hard-counters Chromie, and Jaina and Nova are quite good as well. This was a really unlucky matchup.
Well well well Sand Hitler, how the turn tables, eh?
Rough one Pally, although it's kind of refreshing to see your games unravel like a lot of mine tend to, LOL.
My new favorite build for chromie uses 1. Timewalkers pursuit 2. Andorhal Anomoly 5. Bronze Talons 8. Temporal loop 11. Here and there 14. Whatever 18. Blessing of the bronze…
The build is SOOO annoying to play against because all it does is use as many time traps as possible, using Q echoes to escape, and utilizing the different cooldowns as a more utility mage.
The best part is no one likes it and will actively flame you after games no matter what
What? Chromie was introduced to mitigate the beetles, minions, clones and shit that's blocking skills from hitting heroes. Now that unique trait is totally gone?
"Fun" fact: when you time trap yourself and cho'gall whilst capturing mercenaries, Gall will take them regardless of being stopped in time
You are looking great man.
MOAARR FACECAM!!!
Please do more HOTS games with Tim!
he still didnt finished the quest loi
39/40 lol. Good attempt, almost made the quest XD
these crazy-ass all-assassin games are why I'll never play Quickmatch again.
That 39 stack hurt.
Playing Chrome with no frontline is worse than going to the DMV for sure.
Illustrative coincidence of heroes on the field, to show how her range is way less impressive than it used to be. Tassadar, Azmo, Hammer, Nova, Genji, Illidan... so many folks with impressive range of their own, or impressive gap closing that makes range useless. I miss Chromie, though.
The delay of Chromie's abilities make it too hard for me to play her, is not for everyone. I admire those who are a beast with her.
Friends don't let friends play Chromie, got it.
Yea, we all have our characters that we just suck with =P
I think your main issue is having your camera on following, it will fucked up your aim, by a lot.
Also, why he goes with Q when he can't aim it, baffles the main, nevertheless, fun match.
15:24 anyone else want this soundbite as notifications on phone?
lol everyone on pally's team played horrible, including the genji XD
Alt Title: Chormie vs License Renewal stress
lmao one q off of finishing the quest
do you think he will remember to use here and there once this game
Takes tripple traps - proceeds to ALMOST NEVER use it. Not gonna lie - that frustrated me A LOT.
The ONLY reason I take this talent when I play chromie is exactly for traps and jukes. That's the whole point.
Whoa, I'm the third comment lol Love watching your HOTS games!
Ah old Chromie. ABC's of heroes Always Ban Chrome.
HONESTLY, i think pre-rework Chromie had two very viable heroics but now that her W is spread out between 3 hits the time warp is VERY inconsistent damage and compared to her other R, very unattractive. The zone slow pretty much nullifies any momentum the enemy team might gain from a kill or push and say in this case would keep the Illi from a strong push and escape or keep the Jaina/Tas/Nova still enough to get blown up. Once you start hitting W's, especially with assassin matches like these, Chromie can turn tides pretty fast. Her time Traps are also an invaluable engage/disengage. I miss pre-work Chromie
39/40 sandblast quest, RIP
Well if you're sad that you didn't complete your quest. Butcher didn't complete his either and would've probably helped win the game if he did get it done.
OMG. I enjoy this video a little too much.
It's a bit of a shame that you and Chromie had a "falling out" of sorts. Visually I like her a lot as a character.
I remember hating every moment of every game back in the day against Chromie. Doesn't feel as bad to play against now though so that's nice.
Spoilers below:
Win/Loss: 10-6; 62.5%
Wins: Abathur; Alarak; Alexstrasza; Anduin; Anubarak; Arthas; Azmodan; Blaze; Cassia; Cho
Loses: Ana; Artanis; Auriel; Brightwing; Chen; Chromie
That swap really isnt that useful in to many situations due to the fact it requires set up first and your quest to be completed
THE TOWERS HAVE NAMES????
chromie is shush a pain to play/learn but i do like the hero.
For a character who supposed to control the time, she sure has a lot of delays
Quest not finished XD
Chromie with no front line protecting you looks like hell to play. Gud try.
lol I just renewed mine on the 1st.
Talk about the teammates decision making skills but there was something to be said for your own multiple times there Pally. Overextending with no vision of the enemy away from your teammates when theres a Nova and a Illidan in the match? Basically asking to die and put your team down one for camp contests or objectives. Repeatedly walking forward into the enemy to drop W as a squishy artillery mage when you took sand blast talents and could've played safe with the Q poke? Theres equal blame to be had there.
Zagara was only high because she had a broken build. Remove that and she's basically old trash-gara
Please open your loot
