      I'm happy to see an A-Z happening from the beginning. I found the channel in 2019, so I missed that one and 2020 didn't get one, even though there was a donation to charity goal that was achieved... I'm glad we're getting it, now.
      I was starting to doubt the likelihood of Pally wanting to make an A-Z considering how uneven his upload rate has been. Now he made that clear for everyone.

    What makes your HOTS content great is that you don't tend to care about meta builds, but rather in the joy of playing. You give an idea of what what a hero should be thinking about doing. Finally, you manage this without alt accounts and beating up on lower players. You have the best HOTS content on the internet my friend.

  • @TheDancerMacabre
    @TheDancerMacabre 2 роки тому +1

    In Alpha, Abathur was considered S Tier along with Tychus, Tyrande, and Tassadar; solely based on his EXP soaking mechanic. However Abathur only had one heroic, ultimate evolution, which also copied Heroic Abilities when he used the clone. Double Odin or Double Archon was fun as hell.
    He also had a lot of strange cooldowns like Bribe and Promote which could be used on siege camps (like the ogres) and they dealt like 250% damage. (Though I could be wrong and promote only worked on the catapults because I know Mercenary Lord did the same thing with the camps)
    His Bombard Strain also outranged turrets (and the nexus/core IIRC) so there was an interesting strat to take the global mine, place it deep in the enemy base and back door with locust strain. There was a video with a Zagara using Nydus and Abathur cloning her to melt turrets as well, which led it to being fixed.
    Also, Monstrosity isn't that bad despite what people say. You can heal it at the fountain and now that Deep tunnel is baseline at 10, you can just deep tunnel at fights. It allows your body to soak EXP, the Monstrosity to push and heal when minions die around it, and you can top hat your party. You just need to babysit for a bit to ramp it up. At Max stats it can 1v1 most heroes before I stopped playing

    I don't know if I commented when the video was new, but I decided to go back and rewatch these.
    Trait build/split push is so much fun, especially when you can sneak behind a wall, and destroy the fort without even having your minions up there. But at 4, you're MUCH better off with the extra mines. If you're not baby sitting someone with hat build the attack speed is negligible, while more mines can give more vision/more siege. Sadly, in QM, I usually find myself as the only "support" and often go hat build to keep the team alive.
    I find, with hat build, the W talent at 1 is better in the long run. As you get more aoe damage in everything you do, then at 13 you get the heal for heroes hit, and you can make a tank invincible. Still take the mines at 4 though, unless you have an illidan or butcher, or someone who really benefits from the attack speed. With the W cooldown and heal, I find I can usually outheal and out damage a mirror match, and usually keep up with xp contribution.

I had a bad car accident in 2016, and watching you and a few others helped me quite a lot to cope while I learned to walk again. Just wanted to say thanks, and even if I don't watch, I appreciate the hell out of you and what you do. I just don't much care for the games your playing now, but plz don't let that stop you. Sadly activision let heroes die imho, and you gotta live with the times. I may check in from time to time, but if I dont, never forget that you have helped people and done many fine works.

    its almost always worth it to go mule i think since the shield aoe dosent shield the locus except on certain maps where the obj KOs a fort easily, blackheart bay, towers of doom, sky temple.
    fun fact: aba's locus use to be able to do dmg outside of the range of towers... was OP as hell,
    To this day I think there was a silent nerf to abas bombs, when you go bombs and the 75% extra dmg applied as poison is already on a hero and they hit another bomb the 75% is just refreshed not applied anymore.. I almost exclusively played aba back in the day because my laptop could barely handle the game, so I played aba where the game is more about map awareness than skill shots.

    "Fun" fact about Abathur. His Locust strain used to out range buildings. So you could tunnel behind forts and keeps and take them for free if no one responded to it.

    Pally is in fantastic shape. I'm calling that he will start to deteriorate rapidly after 20 heroes but damn, I wish him so much strength. He's so positive in this one and I love his enthusiasm.
