7:12 Its criminal given the fact that Anduin pulled off multiple clutch saves back to back and wound up being the only member of the team to not make board. Seriously deserves to be in a HOTS moments montage or the front page of Reddit. Hats off to you sir Rebelboy, real heroes don’t make the board.
fun fact, rewind also resets the cooldown on ghost protocol, so you can easily have 4 clones active at the same time if you use both clone and protocol then use rewind, holo stability especially helps also ionic force field works on clone's stealth, meaning they also get 25 armor for 3 sec making them just a bit more tough to clear
I love these meme builds. I want more of these, or even duo/team meme builds since you have people who play around your picks often. Would be a fun new video series. Thanks as always Pally for your work keeping the game alive!
You could have tried "advanced cloaking", holo stability, "anti armor shells", ult, "ionic force field", "lethal decoy", "apollo suit" to maximise the annoyance of your Nova in the game. Advanced cloacking for movementspeed, AA-shells for the hit and run, force field to get more aggressive against no-cc assasins, and apollo suit to do it all a bit safer. The holo decay talent at 16 is optional, but hey it doesn't break stealth anyways. Great content as always
Hey Pally, would you be interested in trying out the Armored Nova build? It revolves around taking Anti Armor shells with the levels 13 and 20 cloak talents. Your auto attacks take so long that you enter cloak in between them, gaining permanent 25 Armor at pretty much 100% uptime.
Hey, it's me! The Dehaka guy again. I hope it's not been to bothersome whenever I request them next for this series, I don't know what's going on behind the scenes and if you have planned order for these characters. I just wanna hear you say What-the-Heka a lot ❤
2 things pally: the. Decoy duration increases duration by 120% not to 120%. Second thing, rewind refreshes your ghost protocol (1 button) so you can have 4 nova decoys out at once!!
Any build can be good on quickmatch imo. By the way i rember years back you were talking about fishermans friends coughdrops, and since i was going through a chest infection id try some, very soothing!
My favorite build! Remember the decoy duration talent increases range too, BUT BUT REWIND ALSO REFRESHES GHOST PROTOCOL!! How would you like to have 5 novas on the board??
how many times i yelled "place your Fing clone" lol once you got in a teamfight you just stopped pressing E altogether XD like even if their dmg isnt great its there and moreso they do block skillshots also read all of the red clone ability at lvl 4. i think you might enjoy that one
Oh, and regarding anti-armour shells... I think it's fine. Obviously it's not ideal if you compare to being able to shoot constantly for damage, but I feel like there are plenty of times where you only get a chance to make one or at *most* two shots on a target before you have to back out anyways.
The holo build was much more feasible when the game came out, before Nova's big re-design. You could plop 2 decoys as once, and do it quite often too. It was great for DPS, and felt akin to a ranged Samuro. ;)
Here is my understanding of decoy behaviour. Decoys only shoot if one of the following is true: there is an enemy hero in range; or, you are not Cloaked; or, you are Cloaked but the decoy takes damage. This means that for PvE purposes like freezing a wave or tanking a merc, you have to lead with an attack or skill and then drop a decoy. Once they shoot, they keep shooting until they expire or are killed. Decoys benefit from the + damage of AAS, but do not apply the debuff.
So, it seems that the aa speed of the decoys aren’t influenced by your talent, however the damage is influenced. Around 6 it was 13, and after anti armour it was 40. This is value
No, no, if you're doing the decoy meme build you gotta go all the way. Rewind is an absolute must, the more decoys the merrier. Rewind resets Ghost Protocol, so you are able to generate four (count them 4) holo decoys if you use Holo Decoy - Ghost Protocol - Rewind - Holo Decoy - Ghost Protocol.
This used to be my favorite nova build before her rework years ago. But since the rework, Lethal Decoy and the AoE Sniper talent are on the same tier, and that messed up the whole thing :(
Samuro, Aba copy ultimate, nova decoy build, the lost vikings, Rexxar or Chen ultimate that splits into three. Vs Cho-Gall, Deathwing, Aba monstrosity, Ragnaros lava wave ultimate
wait wtf? did they change decoy again? i 100% remember that getting anti tank shells DID apply armor debuff from the clones too... mind you it wasn't the same % it wa slike 5 armor debuff. BUT I KNOW THEY DID APPLY IT
Oh good, it would've felt incomplete without a triple tap selection at some point. ... though without the explanation of why it's such a "great" heroic, it feels like only half-baked =P
oh, it wasnt a meme, its not, before her rework, you could spawn 2 clones with your e + the rewind, the damage of the clones didnt exist until the level talent and the w armor reduction was a talent before, it was as broken, had a freaking ton of damage and was the terror of the ilidan hunt.
You are too slow with your decoys. If someone runs with like 1% health you drop a decoy at their location. You could have finished several off this way.
Anduin deserved the MVP for that save.

Rebelboy deciding who lives and who dies.
You think you're reading a comment, but this is just a decoy.
This is the comment
@@MattyPGood 🤯
I fell for the decoy, and now had to pay 2 likes instead of the regular one
😢

17:32 Holo Stability says it inceases the duration "by 120%", not "to 120%", so that means the duration with the talent is 220%, right?
Yes! And it increases cast range significantly. Great for catching people who think they got away >:)
Seems like it would pair better with the heavy auto attack
With pallys logic the cast range is increased by 0% 😅
7:02 saving private Nova mission starts here!
Pally: Okay, I'm dead... I am dead.
Rebel: NOT TODAY!
I love these meme builds. I want more of these, or even duo/team meme builds since you have people who play around your picks often. Would be a fun new video series. Thanks as always Pally for your work keeping the game alive!
Holy crap Rebel, what a save.
We're missing the toxic Nova build!
The best build in the game, for the best hero in the game, with the best ultimate in the game!
You could have tried "advanced cloaking", holo stability, "anti armor shells", ult, "ionic force field", "lethal decoy", "apollo suit" to maximise the annoyance of your Nova in the game.
Advanced cloacking for movementspeed, AA-shells for the hit and run, force field to get more aggressive against no-cc assasins, and apollo suit to do it all a bit safer.

Great content as always
That is more or less the build I'd have recommended him trying for a Decoy build.
How dare Diablo hit you in the bush, could at least buy you dinner first.
Pally, when you pick the first lvl cloak talent, you usually don't want to mount. the talent also increases Move Speed.
"Hit me in the bush."
Sounds rough, buddy.
Phrasing. xD
The best part about meme builds is that, even if you don’t win the round, you do win the game.
@7:10 fastest way to activate a healer's beast mode is to say, "I'm dead." Insert the "and I took that personally..." meme there
7:37 Best ult in the game!
Hey Pally, would you be interested in trying out the Armored Nova build? It revolves around taking Anti Armor shells with the levels 13 and 20 cloak talents. Your auto attacks take so long that you enter cloak in between them, gaining permanent 25 Armor at pretty much 100% uptime.
9:15 one in the chamber has way better synergy IMHO. I mean, it allows you to have somewhat noticeable impact on boss damage and Immortals race
Rebel really out there saying "Not on my watch!"
Haven't finished watching yet but had to pause and say... that save around 7 minutes in by Rebelboy was just ridiculous!
I think Rebelboy was the real MVP. Some clutch saves in that game.
Your healer is totally MVP.
"He was able to hit me in the bush" Phrasing...
Gg, love to see games when you have this much fun. Gg team!
Big daddy Anduin literally out there saving lives. Pally had no right to be alive after that moment. Then Anduin said, “Hold my beer”.
Lol. So real.
I closed my eyes in fear at 5:50... 😅
12:43 oh god, tracer's fuckin leg
You may need to adjust your noise gate. When you get any kind of excited the audio cuts briefly
Hey, it's me! The Dehaka guy again. I hope it's not been to bothersome whenever I request them next for this series, I don't know what's going on behind the scenes and if you have planned order for these characters.

I saw you playing against Day9. You were Azmodan throwing dunks.
Still doing HOTS, mad respect. Hopefully it comes to steam and gets a second wind.
Love the hots
One in the chamber works well with the rewind on the decoy build.
My favorite build! Remember the decoy duration talent increases range too, BUT BUT REWIND ALSO REFRESHES GHOST PROTOCOL!!
How would you like to have 5 novas on the board??
how many times i yelled "place your Fing clone" lol once you got in a teamfight you just stopped pressing E altogether XD like even if their dmg isnt great its there and moreso they do block skillshots
also read all of the red clone ability at lvl 4. i think you might enjoy that one

Pally still doesn't realize that with the rewind reset ghost protocol cooldown, you can have 5 Novas at the same time.
the point of this build is the armor reduction on AA. plus the slow shot armor reduction on top of that
So, it seems that the aa speed of the decoys aren’t influenced by your talent, however the damage is influenced. Around 6 it was 13, and after anti armour it was 40. This is value
No, no, if you're doing the decoy meme build you gotta go all the way. Rewind is an absolute must, the more decoys the merrier. Rewind resets Ghost Protocol, so you are able to generate four (count them 4) holo decoys if you use Holo Decoy - Ghost Protocol - Rewind - Holo Decoy - Ghost Protocol.
Triple Tap got a kill, it must be the best ult in the gaaaaaame!
Alarak didn't die?? How much Sadism did he finish with? I need to know
This used to be my favorite nova build before her rework years ago. But since the rework, Lethal Decoy and the AoE Sniper talent are on the same tier, and that messed up the whole thing :(
I tried a Decoy build when I was trying to get my gold ring on Nova, and I couldn't get it to work well.
Sounds like you like that build :D
Samuro, Aba copy ultimate, nova decoy build, the lost vikings, Rexxar or Chen ultimate that splits into three.
Vs Cho-Gall, Deathwing, Aba monstrosity, Ragnaros lava wave ultimate
wait wtf? did they change decoy again? i 100% remember that getting anti tank shells DID apply armor debuff from the clones too... mind you it wasn't the same % it wa slike 5 armor debuff. BUT I KNOW THEY DID APPLY IT
Can you deep dive Malthael? He's probably my favorite bruiser.
Anduin is the goat for that save.
Pally. If 120% longer duration of a skill is only 20% longer than what does 20% longer duration mean?
Oh good, it would've felt incomplete without a triple tap selection at some point.
...
though without the explanation of why it's such a "great" heroic, it feels like only half-baked =P
You'll get a like for that save!
Great job.
a decoy tracer build eh? good start
Oh how I missed pally's video
I still think this build is the most awesome Nova build.
What about the Global Nova "totally real" build?
The best Ult in the game!
Rapid projection for a decoy build with one in the chamber is broken
Be careful turning Nova around like that. You might hurt someone.
The red talent isn’t very well-explained; it actually takes the time from 5s of clone to...I think 11s? It’s +120%, not *1.2.
Lets go boys!!!!!!
Holo Stability increases decoy duration BY 120% not TO 120%.
oh, it wasnt a meme, its not, before her rework, you could spawn 2 clones with your e + the rewind, the damage of the clones didnt exist until the level talent and the w armor reduction was a talent before, it was as broken, had a freaking ton of damage and was the terror of the ilidan hunt.
Random comment for channel interaction.
So funny he saying will not take this build in ranked while its the best if not one of the best nova builds.
Dungen?
Please play Valeera next
Anduin MVP
Do Tyrande.
You are too slow with your decoys. If someone runs with like 1% health you drop a decoy at their location. You could have finished several off this way.
Why do you have basic mount and basic skin… show of some more!
