nope i play both meepo and TLV myself, and find them very different until later stages of the game. They look the same only in the sense of controlling multi heroes and the exp advantage. They may involve using similar microing skills, but the idea/purpose of these two are totally different.
My best friend and I went as a two headed person when we were 8 years old. We had to teach each other to walk in sync. Ever since then we've been synchronizing each other in all sorts of things especially gaming. Cho'gall was made for us.
There's two things I love about HotS that other mobas don't really do. The first thing is that you have no kill stealing, because kills don't really matter. The second one is that HotS tries something different with every few heroes. Ideas like Abathur, Cho'gall and the Lost Vikings are just amazing. Especially when they work!
Wesly Rosales the problem with HoTS in Asia is that 90% of players are South Koreans which made a language barrier.. I agree, HoTS is much better than DOTA2 and this coming from a veteran since warcraft DOTA mod
Played Cho'gall at Blizzcon. Absolutely loved it. Not the Warlock I was expecting, but he definitely fits the bill. Well... half of the bill at least :P
+DavorBa both ran by same group (TGN), what they dont use in the main WTF Moments often gets put into the Mini's (one of mine made the mini's but was submitted to WTF moments)
Ruthven78 Gaming Thanx for clearing that out for me. I wondered why one (probably the main one) had less videos but more subs, while it was vise versa for the other one. May I ask, which play was yours in in #39 ?
I find the old WarCraft 2 debate between heads to be aptly applied to the new conversations pugs will have: "I'm ready!" "I'm not ready!" * combo misses *
This is why i love HotS more than any other MOBA, they are not afraid to try something new. You already had the Vikings, 3 heroes controlled separately, and now you have a hero controlled by 2 players. This is why HotS is the best, + fun maps, + more maps ......
NightBell i play with silvers and low golds on skype and we do a lot together, try to find new people and give lol a new chace, its not that bad, HotS is a lot more creative, but lo is not bad.
Imagine this becomes real in WoW. You play with your friend since forever, you break your friendship with him and now you just play alone while the other is just staring blankly.
In the spotlight they showed that each head has his own button, Cho and Gakk portraits are present so I think he has normal match making you just need your counterpart so it can take a bit longer to find game.
That... is actually a really cool idea. This is why I love this game: It's doing what League did for the genre many years ago. Pioneering new gameplay concepts, reinventing what the game is able to do, etc.
+GameFuMaster Less frustration. When you are on a competitive match, all you think about is trying to win and hoping for the best that your whole entire team doesn't suck balls. Playing against bots is a pretty lax games for some, without the needless worry of the whole team losing.
+Ambrosia if your playing against bots, most likely your one of those players on the team that sucks balls :P there are even 2 categories of matchplay, one for more serious competitive players and one for people wanting to just play. (you cant even play the former without playing a shitload of the latter) the bot category is like the kids menu. how often do you go out and order from that? unless your still at that age... then its completely appropriate i guess.
Ambrosia big boys in video games, funny. Bots are there for people to play with sure. You choose to play a game literally built specifically for competitive play. I mean, why not choose a game... idk, a single player game whos bots are npcs and unfold a story or riddle for your entertainment? Those bots are the droids your looking for. Its hard to imagine a moba player that just plays against bots. In fact, if you havent noticed, i think its retarded. But hey, like someone above posted, if thats what tickles your pickle.... or clam. On a side note, why are you playing a competitive game if you dont want competition?
Yeah, like controlling a hive mind, you tell them where to go and they autoattack. Your abilities can either buff them or make them scatter or something. The heroic could be a massive buff to each zergling. Sorry for the necro btw
Please tell me Gall's heroic animation will be fixed in the future, he's literally shooting purple fire balls from his chest without doing anything. Anyway, great job!
+Ballin I think that's because Cho is the hero, while Gall acts as an Abathur Hat. Abathur's symbiote doesnt make the hero do any anymations, so maybe that's why gall's abilities don't make animations
+Alexgaby15 Yeah I guess the concept is the same, but Abathur's symbiote has moving animations, whereas with Cho'Gall it looks pretty funny how spells are just popping out of his belly 3:38
***** His abilities don't make animations, but his Q and W create a shadowy firgure of gall that throws them, but I think his ults should make that animation too.
+Benjoleo Cho'gall won't be bought in the store as soon as he comes out. Players who gotten the Virtual Ticket or went to Blizzcon physically will get Cho'gall automatically and they will spread the "Cho'gall Virus" What that means is that players who have Cho'gall can give other people Cho'gall when they play as one of the heads. As for when he's available on the store I'm certain you'll have both Cho and Gall for the price of one hero. As for the drafts Cho and Gall can't be picked first or last only in the between.
+Wee Ching Chok exactly, no body will be able to leave lanes then. Unless they can keep getting mega kills and such, otherwise their level would be so disadvantaged.
+Deman Dema Cho is the one that controls the movement, so he soaks the stuns and slows. i know gall is immune to silence. good point though on knockback you probably will be able to knock gall out of channeling his aoe ultimate. though I don't know anything for certain beyond whats been revealed about their abilities.
really interesting concept. As long as Blizz keeps coming up with weird and interesting character mechanics like this, that stay true to the character, Hots has a lot to offer.
Man , Heroes is really exciting and getting there ! what a unique hero to play with ! It's insane to have such mechanics in this kinda game ! Looking forward to use and meet this hero in battle gl hf Heroes !
I have a feeling, Gall will be played by girls a lot. This is the perfect hero for guys to bring their girlfriends into gaming...." you don't need to control him to move or anything. yeah, just release your q w e r when you feel like it. We got this, girl." :p
+Nil_is I agree, that was the same reason my girlfriend loved to play Mario Kart Double Dash, she could just hang out on the back and throw turtle shells.
+Jaryd Fontana hahaha. it's always good to be able to bring the girls into games no matter what roles they do. →_→ there's too many girls complaining that the boyfriends spend much more time on gaming instead of with them. Finally, the two best parts of life can be done at the same time. XD

Bakercraft Gaming Because LoL is just more popular...*sigh*. Most of my reallife friends are playing LoL as well...i feel lucky some of my friends could actually follow me to HoTS.
I don't know if this was said or not but can cho not get the garden terror, or dragon knight and if he can what happens does player two just sit there?
Wonder why Lei Shen's theme is used in this vid and the current splash screen. Would have though the Twilight's Hammer theme would be more appropriate.
This is the most innovating hero in all mobas, no joke.
+Jose Echevarria you forgot about aba and TLV
Abathur yes but meepo is pretty much the lost vikings
nope i play both meepo and TLV myself, and find them very different until later stages of the game. They look the same only in the sense of controlling multi heroes and the exp advantage. They may involve using similar microing skills, but the idea/purpose of these two are totally different.
+Jose Echevarria Nope.
Abathur is kinda like Empath from HoN. But Abathur's basic ability is Empath's ultimate.
Wow that's a very interesting concept.
+Remus Not just a concept, it's a reality out there tomorrow!
+Gilberto Junior Its still a concept nonetheless
+Henrique Cardoso He didn't say that it wasn't. He said it wasn't "just a concept", i.e. more than a concept.
Th3Meist3r Fair enough
+Gilberto Junior tomorrow?
Only Blizzard can make a joke into an actual hero in a game.
Also, Cho'Gall doesn't ride mounts, he lifts them above himself. :D
+David Kirth Oh yeah Gall has the speed boost instead of a mount and Cho just carries a horse or whatever. (He can ride some mounts though)
+David Kirth he only does that to a few selected ones much like a alternate mount to existing ones so you can chose to ride the horse instead
+David Kirth He is the Mount.
+David Kirth Probably paid mount like diablo's 4 paws run. By default he will just speed up like vikings do.
+David Kirth In Soviet Russia, mount rides you!
My best friend and I went as a two headed person when we were 8 years old. We had to teach each other to walk in sync.
Ever since then we've been synchronizing each other in all sorts of things especially gaming.
Cho'gall was made for us.
Your best friend? not your brother?
@@ray-.-675 think he means he was using a costume for it
There's two things I love about HotS that other mobas don't really do. The first thing is that you have no kill stealing, because kills don't really matter. The second one is that HotS tries something different with every few heroes. Ideas like Abathur, Cho'gall and the Lost Vikings are just amazing. Especially when they work!
I agree, here, 3 years later
Wesly Rosales the problem with HoTS in Asia is that 90% of players are South Koreans which made a language barrier..
I agree, HoTS is much better than DOTA2 and this coming from a veteran since warcraft DOTA mod
Played Cho'gall at Blizzcon. Absolutely loved it. Not the Warlock I was expecting, but he definitely fits the bill. Well... half of the bill at least :P
+AverageAdam definitely?
+AverageAdam
They didnt use mana right???
They do not. Kinda surprised me when I first played Gall. You would think at least the Warlock would have mana.
+AverageAdam hey bro, can you add me to play together whit cho gall? mi id: devilreich# 1897 :D
ME TOOOOOO!!!!! mine is 2650. It will be fun ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Now you can add Chromatus. 5 players play one hero, one player controls each head.
and you have to knock out each head to kill him
i just finish game and both of em had over 50k dmg so i start check and im here they can op if cooperation but yes they can ruin game
Good luck controlling the battlefield
This is an insanely creative concept.
i was waiting for such a champ in league since 2013. for example nunu or sejiuani.
you happy now?
not exactly...they are 2 champs and not 1
I can't wait to see the failed Cho'Gall plays in the WTF Moments series.
+animegx45 Or an entire team dying to a well coordinated Cho'Gall with an Abathur hat.
+Gabe Lazatin HotS WTF moments channel, check it out. There are 2 similar ones, both are great.
+DavorBa both ran by same group (TGN), what they dont use in the main WTF Moments often gets put into the Mini's (one of mine made the mini's but was submitted to WTF moments)
+TwistyMcFisty Im wondering, but Im guessing, the hat will only go on one of the two heads
Ruthven78 Gaming Thanx for clearing that out for me. I wondered why one (probably the main one) had less videos but more subs, while it was vise versa for the other one.
May I ask, which play was yours in in #39 ?
I find the old WarCraft 2 debate between heads to be aptly applied to the new conversations pugs will have:
"I'm ready!"
"I'm not ready!"
* combo misses *
FourCourtJester ah I was wondering which Hearthstone card this was, that reminded me :)
4:10 I laughed so hard at abathur
+griffin casey ME DON'T LIKE SLUG ME SMASH SLUG!
+griffin casey Wow, nice catch buddy, Cho'Gall being near is for prayer indeed :D
Lol. I didnt see aba was dancing there. Camouflage
This is why i love HotS more than any other MOBA, they are not afraid to try something new. You already had the Vikings, 3 heroes controlled separately, and now you have a hero controlled by 2 players. This is why HotS is the best, + fun maps, + more maps ......
+TheEmperorSRB Well, the vikings aren't super original (there's a couple or so champs in dota that are like that), but I know what you mean
+TheEmperorSRB also abby
it begins!
Woah, that's a quite rare find lol
6.5/10
not enough arthas beaten to death
Rare 2 headed ogre, I swear I've killed thousands of those... Isn't there a few clans or something of strictly 2 headed ogres?
+SNOW SOS Nah, Two-headed ogres normally were rare and a sign of great power, but Gul'dan corrupted some ogres to make them 2 headed
Guldan used Altar of storm to mutate ogres into two headed ones
+SNOW SOS before WoW, they were a rare thing. as other stated. Gul'dan mutated them to have 2 heads.
+SNOW SOS ...May I ask where you got your avatar picture from?
+SNOW SOS All ogres in Warcraft 2 are two-headed ogres. Must be a WoW retcon thing.
Cho gall is love
Cho gall is life.
Its all ogre now.
Cho is love
Gal is life
its all cho'kal now.
He has power Ogre-whelming.
4:11 Abuathar, The Evolution master of the swarm, Super intelligent life form, General of a World destroying Parasite, Break dancer.
Cho,Gall is so much fun to play as with a friend. Total carnage ^^
Thats why i left League to play HotS, you will NEVER see something like this on lol.
+Victor Gott good lol league has 0 teamwork even if you are in skype call
NightBell thats not true at all
NightBell i play with silvers and low golds on skype and we do a lot together, try to find new people and give lol a new chace, its not that bad, HotS is a lot more creative, but lo is not bad.
That rock, paper, scissors part put a smile on my face :^)
It doesn't really look like the mount is riding him... it looks like he stole the mount from some kind of farm and is running for it XD
" don't take him on alone". Meanwhile tycus smoking a cigar saying don't mind if I do
Cho'gall with Abathur... We have never before experienced such a Raid as this.
and auriel or morales healing them :D
you can always trust Blizzard to come up with great things like this :D
What about Ultimate Evolution on Cho'Gall
+poklok44 Good question
+poklok44 Abathur will copy Cho - the one that moves, and you only have Cho's abilities.
+poklok44
Also when Cho gets the terror or the Dragon, Gall can be using his abilities
+brendonian more than likely only one half would get the evolution and scale accordingly
+poklok44 Sry they confirmed no UE on chogall, its not targetable
I'm seriously proud of Blizzard for this hero design. So unique but not overt or ridiculous. Keep it up!
By far the most interesting hero ive ever seen in a moba
This made the Virtual Ticket super worth it.
+Daniel Vašek Nope. Only people that made it to blizzcon. Then some RANDOMLY selected players.
+Xiss NN And of course, the virtual ticket.
+Daniel Vašek Not right away, for a while Blizz is letting it spread contagiously.
Daniel Vašek You don't understand how it works mate.
If you play with someone that owns cho'gall you will unlock him.
+SeaTimeless Eventually he will be up for sale but for like the first month or two it will be for blizzcon and the people affected by the cho-virus.
Cho: Prepare for trouble!
Gall: And make it double!
Cho gall's concept was an april fool's joke for a playable race in WoW
Imagine this becomes real in WoW. You play with your friend since forever, you break your friendship with him and now you just play alone while the other is just staring blankly.
I LOVE THE HORSING AROUND MOUNT!
I must say, this hero is truly unique, never seen any MOBA charachters requiring 2 players to use
So Cho'gall + Medic + Abathur =??
this hero seem imposible to play without mic
actually it is possible, the thing is, you need to communicate with your team because they dont know how strong/weak you actually are
What happens if you example que up and finds a russian that control him, and he is afk?
+Shrenko gets kicked and play with bot :-D
I think you cannot que up with only one head, you have to be in a party with your other had
In the spotlight they showed that each head has his own button, Cho and Gakk portraits are present so I think he has normal match making you just need your counterpart so it can take a bit longer to find game.
+Vojta “Revan” Mrlina there is no normal matchmaking u have to play with someone in you party
Are you sure? It feels strange from Blizzard to do that.
4:10 wtf is Abathur doing?
+Cortland StylesBrown Its his dance. You can do it by typing /dance. :]
+Cortland StylesBrown The slug.
lol he's "/dance" ing
Spinning sequences
his best
That... is actually a really cool idea. This is why I love this game: It's doing what League did for the genre many years ago. Pioneering new gameplay concepts, reinventing what the game is able to do, etc.
HE CARRIES THE MOUNT ROLF
rolf? rolling on laughing floor?
+Devilrose YOU DARE MOCK THE SON OF A SHEPARD!?
An interesting hero that I am never going to get the opportunity to play because I only play bot games...
+Brutalyte616 Not even sure how bot games are even fun in the first place but... to each their own.
+GameFuMaster
Less frustration.
When you are on a competitive match, all you think about is trying to win and hoping for the best that your whole entire team doesn't suck balls. Playing against bots is a pretty lax games for some, without the needless worry of the whole team losing.
+Ambrosia it's my daily rogue-like with additional occasional multiplayer interactions
+Ambrosia if your playing against bots, most likely your one of those players on the team that sucks balls :P there are even 2 categories of matchplay, one for more serious competitive players and one for people wanting to just play.

Love it! More innovative heroes pls! :D
(P.S. I wanna play as Zerglings!)
Yeah, like controlling a hive mind, you tell them where to go and they autoattack. Your abilities can either buff them or make them scatter or something. The heroic could be a massive buff to each zergling. Sorry for the necro btw
It's a mount...does that work?
Please tell me Gall's heroic animation will be fixed in the future, he's literally shooting purple fire balls from his chest without doing anything. Anyway, great job!

do both players have to buy chogall or only the one controlling? and also how are drafts going to work with chogall?
+Benjoleo Cho'gall won't be bought in the store as soon as he comes out.

I had a Cho Gal on my team while playing Aurie, oncel. I got more energy than a baby on adderal.
chogall + aba = wtf, 3v5
+Wee Ching Chok exactly, no body will be able to leave lanes then. Unless they can keep getting mega kills and such, otherwise their level would be so disadvantaged.
+YakuzaPanda Giant Killer going to be scary on Raynor against this guy... Jeebus.
+rmyd027 lmao have you see Leoric, he make this orge bleed
+Wee Ching Chok Pick them with the Lost Vikings = GG.
rmyd027 but it says cho'gall only has twenty percent something winrate. maybe they'll nerf abby instead lmao.
I'm ready! I'M NOT READY!
2 years later. No skins, underpowered, underplayed, easily countered, still expensive, hardly fixed, and never viable.
Bruh
looks like A LOT of fun, can't wait to play him
He is 2 body in 1, weak to CC but strong vs AoE.
Gall is immune to CC :)
+Jaycer Even movement CC? Slow, Root, Knock back should effect him.
+Deman Dema Cho is the one that controls the movement, so he soaks the stuns and slows. i know gall is immune to silence. good point though on knockback you probably will be able to knock gall out of channeling his aoe ultimate. though I don't know anything for certain beyond whats been revealed about their abilities.
The only CC that applies to Gall as well is Polymorph
that dancing abathur though
I think you should see the other players cooldowns x)
3 years have passed and i still wish they made an animation to galls shadow bolt volley ult isnted of just bursting out of his chest...
Cho'momma.
This dancing Abathur at 4:10. Never help the Team.. :P
Too bad none of my friends play this game.
+nordic fatcheese time to hit the chat
+nordic fatcheese Cuz this game actually sucks.
+the sunshine wrath Hunga Bunga
Agreed, it can only be played with friends.
+nordic fatcheese exactly! it tooks me 3-4mins to start a quick match, and the players r really bad
same experience here xd, u cant go soloQ is boring af
really interesting concept. As long as Blizz keeps coming up with weird and interesting character mechanics like this, that stay true to the character, Hots has a lot to offer.
1 hero Two players? It will all be ogre soon i fear
Love this character. Whenever im about to throw rune bomb i call out "bowling!"
Am I the only one who remembers the 2004 April Fool's joke for WoW?
Rest in peace, sweet prince.
Nov 16, 2016 - June 5, 2017
????
Why does every spell in this game look and feel so weak and without any oomph behind it
My favorite character
Awesome Blizzard. Nice job trying things like this.
Reminds me on the WoW april fool joke with the playeble twoheaded ogre.
Man , Heroes is really exciting and getting there ! what a unique hero to play with ! It's insane to have such mechanics in this kinda game !
Looking forward to use and meet this hero in battle
gl hf Heroes !
6.5
"We're not brainless anymore..."
+Timothy Baldridge "I've got the brains ^^!"
it's all ogre now
Patch 5.2 The Thunder King trailer music! I got the shivers
Make the game on cellphone
May C'thuun bless him
i dont have anybody to play cho'gal with
This is going to be so much fun!
Its all ogre now, its all ogre
3:11
He's running like Fred Flintstone!
Teamwork? (Darth vaber voice) Nooooooooo!
lul
I love this champion. It's so good design and i just have no words. it's perfect
I kinda wish his run wasn't as humorous. Sure he isn't a Guldan type of character, but he isn't Leeroy Jenkiins either (Omg, Leeroy in HoTs :D)
If they add Leeroy, all of his abilities should just increase his movement speed for a large amount, and a charge move here and there.
Can't wait for Cho'Gall!!! Also, below Arthas on hero select screen...so much hype!
+Blitznuger I see two characters there I'm not familiar with. Do you know who they are?
Greymane and Lunara
Blitznuger Ahhhhhh, I completely forgot about those two XD
I have a feeling, Gall will be played by girls a lot. This is the perfect hero for guys to bring their girlfriends into gaming...." you don't need to control him to move or anything. yeah, just release your q w e r when you feel like it. We got this, girl." :p
+Nil_is I agree, that was the same reason my girlfriend loved to play Mario Kart Double Dash, she could just hang out on the back and throw turtle shells.
+Jaryd Fontana hahaha. it's always good to be able to bring the girls into games no matter what roles they do. →_→ there's too many girls complaining that the boyfriends spend much more time on gaming instead of with them. Finally, the two best parts of life can be done at the same time. XD

+Nil_is and it isnt to be the healer :) I was sad that my wife said she wanted to start playing LoL instead of HotS
Bakercraft Gaming Because LoL is just more popular...*sigh*. Most of my reallife friends are playing LoL as well...i feel lucky some of my friends could actually follow me to HoTS.
"I'm ready master. I'M NOT READY" woooo warcraft 2 tides of darkness.
More of this please...
WoW ripoff
+mightybaseplate shrek ripoff
Im ready
IM NOT READY
Watch Cho'gall get the most kills at the next tournament.
Please don't let me wait another week for him.. I yearn for this.
This looks awesome! Cannot wait to play this guy
I played several games as Cho while my wife played as Gall in the other room. It was unlike any other bonding experience we've ever had. LOL
OMG This champion is the reason why I'll play again this game
well friendships will be over when they release this hero
RIP the old cho'gall
That heroe is the most exhausting character in the game! Thanks for the insane amount of fun!
I don't know if this was said or not but can cho not get the garden terror, or dragon knight and if he can what happens does player two just sit there?
+Heath Evans Gall will still be able to use his abilities.
Will have an awesome time playing these heroes with my best friend! :D
Wonder why Lei Shen's theme is used in this vid and the current splash screen. Would have though the Twilight's Hammer theme would be more appropriate.
I played both heads at blizzcon. He's the greatest character in the game.
I remember escorting this guy around back then
This looks so good.
wow just wow the amount of teamwork that is needed but I still waiting for Imperius :c
Brilliant concept!
Cho'gath my beloved
