The Nexus Trolls - A Heroes of the Storm Podcast

The Trolls examine the Junkrat patch today, including a deep dive on the Muradin and Zul’jin reworks.  We discuss Junkrat, and how we feel he fits into the Nexus, and where his strengths lie.  There’s a little eSports sprinkled in for good measure, as per always when LiQiuD is around.  Sit back and enjoy the show!

We’ve got Cavalier Guest back on the show today to talk some strategy.  Specifically, we go over Shrines, Cursed Hollow and Towers of Doom and how best to optimally play the first 5 minutes of all of those maps. We also talk to Cav about some ‘sub optimal’ builds that are popular in the Nexus that you should think twice about.  And we cap off the show with a great HotS debate where LiQiuD attempts to defend his crown with a nice little twist!  Sit back and enjoy!

LiQiuD, where are you?

Even though LiQiuD was having trouble with his Internet, the show must go on.  Daz and Mystic hold down the fort and talk in depth about Kel’Thuzad, Jaina, Chromie and Morales.  We decided to do the nice thing and save Leoric for next week… Because if we didn’t, LiQiuD would get angry, and you wouldn’t like LiQiuD when he’s angry.
