So tomorrow 17th of November a huge patch change is going to hit Heroes of the Storm. I will post a link with detailed information of the patch changes coming up. I will highlight the most interesting changes. Death Timers: Will be longer at early levels. PvE changes: Towers will not hit as hard as before (possibly allowing you to dive even more for the kill) New Scaling: More information on the site The result is I think this will enable more snowballing games but there might be an upside. The meta is going to change, be prepared and get ready. For more information check out this site to read more about it. followgrubby.com/news/91/NewScaling.html

I already like the fact that the death timers will be a bit longer. Think you almost don't get any advantage on making first blood, because killed enemy heroes are coming back to life pretty fast. On the other hand, that change increase the risk of having those one sided matches, but we'll see. As for the other changes, I do like them on paper, only time and testing will tell

overall I like all the changes other than tower weakening I liked that defensive aspect, now it'll be even harder to hold the lane 1v2 or vs a stronger laner gathering power still looks bad to me

It's not meta changing per se. In early game it's really hard to kill anybody w/o ganking up because heroes are way too weak and early objectives suffer from short respawn timers when killed team just respawns and kills you back before you finish objective, so won teamfight didn't matter, this patch will fix that.
I'm more interested in Falstad changes and if they will bring this hero up in rankings.

yeah, Falstad auto-attacker will be buffed with both seasoned marksman and power throw available now, that should make him easier to play, esp to noobs duelist Falstad will be pretty much unchanged I'm more curious about Zeratul, he'll lose his ability to poke, maybe he'll only be useful as sniper with Shadow Assault? we'll see if new GP may revive Mageatul as well
