    I know it’s hard to swallow Pally, but Twin Blade is actually good, especially in QM.
    It’s basically easy mode Illidan. Really easy mode. You stick to your target like crazy, don’t need mana, heal for hundreds of HP just by attaching, can solo anything at level 7 (and in 15 seconds rather than 15 minutes). It’s super weak to CC, but super effective if they don’t have enough to keep you away.

      TB varian is pretty good in QM, but just because the matchmaking gives you an easy comp to fight against, not because the hero is good or anything (TB Varian is that bad though)

    • @MrBanarium
      @MrBanarium 5 років тому

      The stats are from hotslogs.
      TB Varian is good in ranked too. Like 60% winrate good. Check the stats. He’s not "only good in QM" like we all used to know. People like to say he’s bad, since forever, but he’s actually really good.
      In all fairness, one might say he doesn’t provide a lot to the team, contrary to taunt with the taunt and smash with the armour debuff, but he compensates by being a dumb version of Illidan.

  • @ruffone5445
    @ruffone5445 5 років тому +1

    Hi Pally, I played Varian a little different using C Smash. Smash drops the armor of the target by 20% so I want to inflict my dmg after the debuff lands. Smash charges as well so I engage with R. That will proc an auto, follow up with Q for the slow and heal if I took dmg during the engage and I save the shield bash to gap close if the target is getting away. My last auto after the bash is the nail in the coffin. This puts out hella dmg with high kings quest. I think you’ll like it.

  • @tiraraymond6629
    @tiraraymond6629 5 років тому +1

    48-26 now following your builds. I ended up being the solo laner but smashing was still fun. I need this to carry me at least to Zagara because she's my last good character on the list. I finally got good with Whitemane then they changed how she plays and now I don't know if I can play her so Im in trouble the rest of the way. If I stay under 30 losses Ill be pretty happy for this A-Z

    • @samarmstrong3651
      @samarmstrong3651 5 років тому +3

      Whitemane still plays the same. They nerfed the mana return talent, but you can still take it and be fine. Before you could take Clemency at 1 and mana return at 4 and cycle abilities to heal a shit ton and return more mana than you spent. This let you permanently self and team sustain as long as you were managing cooldowns sufficiently. Now you can still do that, but instead of getting more mana back than you spent, you get just a bit less, so you actually have some mana cost for the cycle. Still playable, still good. Still strong. Just means you have to tap once in a while cause you aren't completely self sufficent with an ally nearby.

This is why I tend to stay away from him, because I don't want to be forced to play tank, or I will be that guy who refuses to play tank, which I have in the past and will do again, so I can get him to level 15.

    I once played a game with a Varian. We desperately needed a tank. At the beginning of the game I and another player said, "Varian please go tank and not twin blades." He replied, "Haha nope"
    There was one team fight at the beginning of the game that he did really well in which he felt gave him some ammo to start shit talking our team.
    After that we kept losing team fights because we all died so quick with no tank. Varian dove in and died even faster.
    One game and 12 deaths later, we actually managed to win no thanks to him. I typed in chat, "gg wp lads. We managed to win despite this dumbass Varian."
    He said, "Haha *I* *think* *I* *won* *it* *for* *you* "

      If it’s quick match, then people play for fun.
      Taunt is not fun.

      To be fair, Blizz fucked up the MM with Varian I would say (and this is coming from a person who rarely complains at all). What I mean is, do you guys remember the patch where Varian is considered 'Bruiser' in QM role now? That's heroes like Dehaka, Sonya, Artanis and the like. Guess what? QM still often matches Varian into tank role (opponent team has tank, Varian team doesn't), that's without the tank bonus (faster que time, extra xp) for the Varian player btw.
      It is somewhat understandable if some Varian players want to go dps in QM when they specifically signed in as one (in Draft, team mates should ask them which ult he's going, not assume he will go tank). I always went tank build with Varian eagerly (if I'm the only hero that can tank) in a previous QM system because I know the system put me as tank. But after the change, I sigh. I still sometimes go tank for the team, but there are times I just say fuck it. People shouldn't just assume Varian players to take the bullet when the system itself doesn't give them benefit when it should. But I agree that some players seem to have a weird fetish with winblades, which is often the lackluster, wrong ult to pick.

      God, Varians are the worst - okay not all of them, but certainly most of the toxic players I've had to report have been Varians, followed by Orpheas for some reason. I suspect that it's because he's very easy to operate, coupled with his awesome presentation (he does look and act pretty cool) makes it easy to fulfill the 'badass' fantasy of rushing in, killing fools, and just owning the place. This ends up attracting the type of players who only want to do that and don't want to learn anything to actually get there. I suspect a lot of old nova players migrated to C-smash Varian (as well as chromie and valeera) since it's a much easier version of that playstyle, just as twin blades is basically an easier and better illidan.
      It's a shame because Varian's actually kind of cool as a hero; his versatility lets him adapt to the game and makes him feel less like a tool and more like a soldier who reads the battle and adapts different tactics. He just ends up attracting more terrible players because of how easy he is.
