    do levels gained during free to play week on heroes you don't own stay?

    like I'm 6 on Nova, if I don't buy her before FTP week ends do I lose those levels if I bought her in the future?

    Nova is pretty good, but incredibly different playstyle from the majority of the other heroes, outside maybe zeratul.

    yeah I enjoy it for QM because it's pretty solo efficient, once I get to 20 with good positioning I can decimate in team fights against shitty people

    just learning maps and what all the heroes do right now

    Chen is ridiculous. Just finished a game where I went 14-1, and outleveled the enemy team 19-13. Highest margin I have ever seen. Fucking chen can infinitely regen shields so after a few talents I was close to invincible.

    played 3 games and it's amazing how good she is at a myriad of roles

    I have found the Hero I will main in this game if you ever played any other MOBA with me you won't be surprised that it will be Stitches. Just need 4K more gold to get him. I'm at level 18 almost 19, so at 20 that is an easy 2K then just daily challenges and get to 25 and I'll be good to go.

    Also - what the fuck Blizzard? Adding an option to mute all allied chat in a TEAM game is a really terrible decision. Makes it even worse now with people running around with their heads cut off in quick match.

    Johanna is pretty good.. lots of potential with her. Tons of survivability and damage mitigation, along with a massive amount of CC. Can't wait to give her a try with a competent team rather than just solo Q dumbasses.

    Free with micro transactions for aesthetic features and to unlock characters faster. I have yet to spend a dime on it.

    I just really dislike the idea of unlocking heroes. Cheap way to extract money from your consumers.

    It's a free game, they need to pay for it somehow. I'm completely Ok with it, there is no competitive advantage to it do why not

    They have ways to earn in game currency faster, and with their weekly free hero rotation and small hero pool it's a lot better than league. They also seem to reduce the unlock costs a shit load faster than Riot.
