Ethan Davis
You know this works in both ways, right?
Camden Gutierrez
Compete with league of legends
Jayden Bell
Heroes of the storm, while still a fun game in my own opinion, is not as well done nor as popular as other Mobas that have large playerbases.
Carson Thompson
>dominates entire card game market. /tg/ reporting, what the fuck is the bait.
Nolan Rogers
>Then proceed to fuck up entire franchise
>it's Blizzards fault other companies dont dare to compete with them
Xavier Cooper
Too bad everyone disagrees with your shit opinion.
Cameron Torres
>Seriously, is there anything Blizzard can't do?
Live up to the legacy of pre-merger Blizzard.
Joseph James
I don't. NeoBlizzard makes shitty popcorn games designed to appeal to fucking everyone and in the process truly pleasing none of them.
Cooper Gutierrez
The entire genre was created inside one of blizzards games...
Isaac Wright
>Seriously, is there anything Blizzard can't do?
make an actual good game
Jonathan Price
And?
Henry Gonzalez
This. Overwatch fans clearly have no experience with real high speed or arena games like Team Fortress Classic, Quake III Arena, Unreal Tournament 99, Unreal Championship 2, or anything from StarSiege Tribes.
Noah Peterson
They already did with WC3.
Blake Johnson
>Seriously, is there anything Blizzard can't do? warcraft 4
Ethan Carter

Xavier Baker
>makes card game >dominates the entire card game genre
No one worth anything plays that pile of RNG shit. MTG still has many more players.
Also >make moba >its an utter failure and one of the worst titles in the entire genre
haha
Asher Sullivan
Shills btfo
Xavier Lewis
Hearthstone has more players than MTG has cards, and mtg is the only game that could even be considered competition. No matter how shit a game it is, it is popular.
Daniel Wood
oh fuck off with your arena based elitist shit. not everyone needs to be a super fast fps pro.
Ayden Harris
Talking about digital card game space.
Joshua Miller
because they made it
Jonathan Ramirez
This.
Jace Perez
blizzard is dead and activision is the necromancer
they havent been good ever since blizzard north closed down
Joseph Ortiz
>muh old school fps's >every fps not like them is shit
I love quake and unreal but not every single fucking fps needs to emulate them.
Andrew Cox
One could argue that Hearthstone dominates the ONLINE card game market, but that's mostly because Wizards gives zero shits about Magic Online.
Gavin Stewart
They literally made MOBA Assfaggot
Hunter White
Sell a new IP without a monstrous advertising budget
Keep people playing your new game
Austin Brown
because modders invented the whole genre using their system and made the best version already
Elijah Perry
Blizzard did not make mobas, what the fuck are you smoking?
David Parker
not an argument(s)
James Moore
Dota literally came from a warcraft 3 custom game.
Aiden Clark
It's called "fanbase" not "domination" idiot.
Nathaniel Parker
>wins GOTY and is on track to become the best selling FPS game of all time
People keep saying this but why are queues so long?
Nolan Nelson
Overwatch is marketed as an arena shooter and it sucks at that role. Also if I was gonna get into super fast arena games I would have mention pic related as it was pretty much the pinnacle of insanity during it's run.
Kayden Gonzalez
Fucking shame mtgo is such a buggy mess. Seriously fucking activating fetch and pain lands crashs the client.
And cockatrice is full of shitters that dont understand what an untap step is.
Fuck i just want to play cards through a client that isint hearthstone..
Chase King
Quick play ques are long Ranked is literally 5 second ques.
Charles Morales
So fucking what? Just because the game was made in the War3 engine doesn't mean Blizzard made it or owns it you stupid fucking child.
Logan Scott
Warcraft didn't dominate the RTS genre, so it wasn't as simple as "makes RTS game" it's "makes RTS games". StarCraft dominated, but it wasn't their first.
They didn't dominate the action RPG genre until Diablo II.
WoW and Overwatch are legit, though. Their first entry into the genres and totally dominating.
Evan Lopez
>Into the trash it goes. You could actually say that they started as a nice alternative to other card games, both digital and physical, but then fucked it up HARD and made it into the casino simulator: roll the dice to win or lose the game.
I agree to all other points tho.
Jordan Carter
Modders made a MOBA inside WarCraft III
Charles Thompson
Because >The queues arent actually long, theyre less than 1min >They went from having 2 game modes to having 6 game modes
Xavier Turner
>Spawn out of their own game >It didn't come from them! You literal retard
Still spawned from their game MOBAs wouldn't exists without blizzard.
Jordan Thompson
i doesnt mean blizzard made it
just like bethesda didnt make nehrim
Camden Mitchell
Overwatch is a good game. I am a redditor, Sup Forums. What are you going to do?
William Hughes
>REEEEEEEE d-don't talk about B-Blizzard! Another Stockholm Syndrome episode?
Andrew White
There is no way to know how many people actually play since the only thing Blizzard seems to keep track of is how many people have downloaded and that is no way a real indicator of active players.
Jaxson Wood
why would I do anything about it?
you have shit taste, that much is evident.
Jonathan Hill
It wouldn't exist without them.
Ayden Walker
>Blizzdrones are THIS retarded
A new low.
Jacob Thomas
Hearthstone babies think their Random Number Generator with flashy lights counts as a card game
ignore them
Oliver Gomez
during blizzard north = games for adults, who gives a shit about what kids want
after blizzard north = games for kids and teens, who gives a shit about what adults want
RIP
Wyatt Myers
They pretty much did create the game, yes. everything about it is baseline Warcraft 3 gameplay. The only difference is you have just 1 hero, and the creeps all run on pre-determined paths.
The map makers don't deserve the credit for creating "MOBA". Blizzard created all the heroes, That have 4 abilities, one of them being an Ultimate you get at level 6. Inventory slot with six items, Etc etc.
It's like making a custom map for Counter-Strike where i only fight with Glocks and Knives and then claim I created my own genre with that.
Juan Bell
HoTS didn't take over mobas. I dont think its a bad game, but just too shallow. I play it when my stack is too salty to continue with dota.
Really wish they would change the payment system. Not having every hero is a nightmare, and the gold progress is very slow. Wish it had an option like smite to just drop 30 and get them all forever.
Ryder Jones
>Dotashitters can't accept their game came from blizzard
Jose Ramirez
>Seriously, is there anything Blizzard can't do?
Yes - innovate. They stole all their ideas, including their biggest cash cow, from the competition.
Cooper Baker
So fucking what? Just because someone uses someone else's tools to make something doesn't mean the toolmaker is responsible for the creation. You really are a stupid fuck.
Jaxson Young
>only thing Blizzard had any hand in making for DOTA was the low poly models >this means they made the game
actually end yourself right now
Daniel Powell
Balance their games.
Asher Harris
>games for adults
No such thing.
Isaiah Rodriguez
>Valvecucks THIS BOOTY BLASTED
top kek
Leo Cooper
make good games the only goods game they got is starcraft
WoW is since they got bought by activision the biggest casual shitfest ever
Hearthstone RNG mobile game
Overwatch balanced by a retard named Kapplan. is fun for a few weeks then you realize how shity designed it is
Diablo 3 Top kek m8
Owen Cox
make a good game
Parker Gutierrez
>let me say he has no argument, surelly will show him!
Jaxson Foster
Because most people play the game for a few weeks and then quit it. It's a fun game, but doesn't have much lasting appeal.
Parker Garcia
It's not like the Dota 2 heroes are based off their WC3 incarnations or anything either.
Blake Miller
>assfaggots can't expect blizzard is king
Aaron Roberts
Just play shadowverse then. It's not as complex as mtg but i doubt something like that will ever work well online.
Ethan Torres
X Mage?
Ian Martinez
Not him, but you actually are the stupid fuck here. You're obviously a young kid who was still shitting himself in diapers at the time of WC3.
William Richardson
ha...
haa....
haha
habooooo D::::::: GABEEEENNNNNNNN WHY DID YOU MAKE A MILLION DOLLAR GAME OUT OF AN IDEA WE REJECTEDDD...
WE WILL SUE YOUR FAT FUCKING PANTS OFF YOU FUCK
Brayden Hill
2 minute queues >not long >TF2 is literally instant
Pick one, I'm not saying TF2 is better or even that these games were meant to compete but 2 minute queues for quickplay, 1.5 for 3v3 and a maybe never going to pop 1v1 are really long for GOTYAY dominating fps
Jayden Richardson
I'm 25 and what does my age have to do with knowing Blizzard didn't make DOTA?
Landon Garcia
i'd rather be raped by actbizz then sjw failures like EA AND UBI
Lucas Davis
Because no one fucking plays it
Austin Lopez
>TF2babbies
also the comp queues arent 2min
Jaxson Powell
>>games for adults >No such thing. STOP
Austin Miller
>oh fuck off with your arena based elitist shit >literally it's what Overwatch is marketed as My sides.
Elijah Morales
>TF2 >Instant It's almost like you can search for servers, finding an random game is not instant.
Jaxon Thompson
Blizzard literally did not make Diablo 1, 2 or LoD
Owen Reed
Replicate their successes.
Owen Cox
That's like saying that the entirety of Call of Duty came from id software because their engine (idtech 3) was behind the original games and Modern Warfare's engine was modified from it.
Parker Moore
A lot of bliz drones still maintain that blizzard made mobas because of the fan mad mod for WC3 called Defense Of The Ancients.
Asher Ortiz
>makes RTS game >dominates the entire RTS genre
(You)
Benjamin Phillips
>Instant play isn't instant because they have better features
Okay? Like I said I am not pro TF2, I am just asking why TF2 quick play is so much quicker than OW.
Jaxon Jackson
A lot of things wouldn't exist without Windows, but it doesn't mean Microsoft owns or has a part in creation of everything.
Wyatt Lewis
>creators shouldn't get credit for the things they create because the assets are reused
Alright I guess the only people who should get credit for mobas are cavemen for building the foundations of society that allowed electricty and metalworking and computing and level designing to exist.
Jacob White
I am well aware of that. The fan made mod was not made by Blizzard though.
Also it was AoS first.
Jaxon Smith
"ok but every game Riot Games created dominated its genre?"
this is the argument youre using.
Thomas Carter
Because OW is suppose to be competitive and the main draw is ranked you dumb nigger. Quick play is advertised as a place to fuck around with friends and train.
>inb4 Ow isn;t comp meme
Jose Taylor
Well it does have a part. It charges a punitive to get your software windows certified. They take a big chunk out of any video game for windows.
Luis Martin
Nope. A studio that they took over and renamed to Blizzard North did. Said studio was also working on Diablo III (not to be confused with that piece of shit Diablo 3), but Blizzard pulled the plug on it because they couldn't afford to keep that studio open. Members from said studio later found work at ArenaNet and now a handful of them are working for the studio who handles Path of Exile.
Nathaniel Parker
It's more like if the entirety of Modern Warfare was made using ID's characters and assets from Quake 3, and all of their code, and the only thing different was the maps were arranged differently
Benjamin Lopez
Live up to what they made in the last millenium.
Carson Adams
if those games are so good why did nobody give a shit about them and they died naturally even before OW was released? lol
Connor Torres
LoL is a way better moba than hots though, hots chars are all just ripoffs of other games
Hunter Johnson
>hots chars are all just ripoffs of other games >people will actually fall for this low tier bait
