Started playing HotS again because of these videos. It's such a fun game. Vastly prefer it over mobas where you buy items.
Absolutely, my smooth brain can't keep up with buying different items for different playstyles. Love how easy to pick up HotS is
I also played it a lot but now it just cooks my pc
Same same!
EXACTLY!!!
@@guyindastreets To be fair, even in LoL you almost never buy different items. Once you find that perfect "build" you always go for the same items, same as in hots
My guess is that the high win percentage is connected to the low play rate. The only people who play her are the ones who are actually good at her, and no one is used to playing against her.
Facts
Yeah she's so hard to play and requires you to dive so hard. Also with no sustain and in a game where those AA builds dominate she's heavily team reliant.
@@Malthael22 most characters or rather builds that rely on your team are hard. Because you can't control your team and if they straight up don't help you (like stacking with Azmo, follow up dmg after a KTZ combo etc) you're basically useless and most of the times are getting the blame.
@@raydafuq3570 Which sucks because that's not the current state of the game. I mean an AA build for most assassins trumps anything else. Even casters need good protection to be effective like your KTZ example. I like playing Maiev, but with no support or tank in a match, it's a nightmare to play her.
@@Malthael22 ikr I love Maiev but it can be so freaking rough. I kinda have the condition that I like some of the hardest heroes the most and I'm normally not a moba guy so I still after years struggle to follow what's happening.
I was a long time WoW player in PvP especially battle grounds and world PvP with many enemies and in the best case the same amount of allies but actually we where outnumbered most of the time so I have a strategic but offensive playstyle and offensive doesn't fit well in HotS so I find myself often alone and out of position when fighting starts but at least I'm good at it but my team never follows up with stuns or even damage or whatever they are occupied with running.
"Where's Illidan?!" asked Maiev calmly
10/10 best comment!
5:58 it's pretty funny she feels like Zera to you, since Maiev originally in Warcraft 3 has basically the same ability kit as Zera in hots (AoE around self, blink, and a delayed nuke) and devs had to reshape her somewhat for the game
Some tips for maev:
1. Your engage is way scarier when you just walk at them and then use your w to pull and your e to make sure it happens.
You walk towards them, w while throwing e backwards and teleport to yoink them all back, situations may vary but this is the metaphorical “kerrigan combo” at its most basic level for maev. I only will use my e to get closer in a chase situation to make a checkmate move on the enemy
2. Maev is a consistent damage and cc character, not a burst damage.
As much as her kit may seem like zeratul’s on paper, the way they approach engages is vastly different. Zeratul is get in, get kill, get out. Maev instead is pull enemy together in a bad spot, spam q, profit. Her q is the biggest source of damage and always having how to line that up conciously in your mind is key to the success in any game with maev.
3. Use her trait reactively. Make sure to hold onto it until you see an ability used that you really need to not get hit by. (i.e. pyroblast) the window is short but long enough for pretty much anything a spellcaster like kael’thas can throw at you. Just like tracer if you can keep track of that important cooldown and use it accordingly, you will be extremely hard to pin down and kill.
An edit here: it can go both ways here as pally does state, as you don’t necessarily want to always hold it, the main thing to evaluate is what you need to use it for and when it is better to just kill the enemy team faster
Mostly things I noticed from today’s video, I hope these help! Maev is one of my favorites and she has a very nice flow.
It was pretty remarkable how often the enemy team avoided being pulled back to you with your tether. They all seemed very good at avoiding that.
Maiev was actually a little overpowered when came out. I remember seeing in the HGC that year (last one actually) that everyone was permabanning her cause she was way too strong, funny cause now that those pro teams are gone maiev has only been buffed. In any case pally you did amazing, just gonna point out some tips that helped me with her in case they can help you or anyone reading: maiev is like a KT + illidan for the DMG since you get resets on your Q if you hit more than 2 or more heroes and that can escalate to a ton of DMG super fast but you gotta stay in range. For the W is better to play it like a garrosh, you want to stay mounted and get close to apply it and then you E out, otherwise some people are gonna try to stay in range (not necessarily bad cause makes easier to hit Q if they can't disengage), finally the build you were running has anti-sinergy at levels 1 and 16, if you run E build is better to get the lower CD on 1 so you can actually get in with E and have a chance for a second cast almost instantly, and the Q at 16 is better cause you already committed to %dmg at 4. All talents on maiev are good but builds are a little weird and usually it's best to experiment a little, mixing everything now and then until you find what goes better here and there
I was really surprised that Pally didn't talk about her release. She was completely busted when she came out. An absolute unrelenting murder monster. A melee assassin with huge damage, more CC than some tanks, a good engage/escape and baseline passive 15 armor with an on demand invuln on a short CD. Angels would weep when she got a Q reset. I remember some pro player or streamer even playing her without any talents and still winning their games.
@@Sigma6987 Maiev was laughing at 1v5's for what seemed like the first few months.
Maiev is my favorite assasin-class character, loved her with all her flaws, the plays you can set up with the cage is great, her AA's can hurt a lot and with a lot of practice fan of spam cen demolish clumped up team comps.
Pally, love the vids but you're doing the combo backwards my man. Try fighting into the enemy group, then W umbral cord them all and E the hell out of there. They will ALL be pulled and without mitigation there's no way for them to outrun it. I get the explosion damage of E going in, that's fun, but trust me try it the other way and you'll be doing way more damage when they all get yanked back towards you.
TLDR: Don't E in, W the group and E OUT.
Came here to say this. He's doing the combo wrong.
@@josephburton3232 shockingly a lot of players do. And it seems so obvious too
@@JohnnyFiction he is doing it right actually
This was a wild one to watch! I always love seeing those big comebacks. Those staggered enemy deaths into the Boss, Objective, and Merc Camps turned what looked like a total loss into a sweet, sweet victory. Great content as always Pally.
38-7-1 now following your builds. This feels like the textbook definition of a not for quick match hero. She absolutely needs a coordinated team in order to be good. It's why I remember her being a consistently strong hero in high ends of storm league and consistently awful in QM. Since I don't have viewers to help me on this I did what I could and gave myself some extra games. I do like this better than the try hard build I was doing before as it is easier to understand. I want to mention one practice game I had though because it go to levels 29 vs 28 with 57 to 35 deaths in our favor vs a butcher with no tank or healer and at the end of the match the butcher had still not completed his quest
Yeah, the biggest part of getting good with Maiev is learning to consistently hit multiple heroes with her Q to get those resets. She can put a lot of pressure on clumped up teams when that happens.
Turns out, yeah, Maiev was prepared.

Thanks for doing this on every video! Always fun to look at. Your loss counter is off though, should be 11 not 10.
@@darkfalcon59925 Thanks. Appreciate it.
one thing i found made it a lot easier to stack Maiev's level 1 quest was to AA a minion next to enemy heroes after activating W, rather than trying to get 2 heroes grouped together
"Life is a lie, everything is meaningless!" I've never felt more connected to you Pally.
WHAT A TURNAROUND!
Love Pallys videos. The last few felt pretty mailed in (I know about the recent tragedy in Pallys extended family), but I think the substance of his helpful tips and commentary is higher when he's put more than a few practice games on the character. Maiev video was great due to 11 practice games. I do also know there's a content creator RUclips bonus in December which he has mentioned, but still love it when he puts some re practice into someone before providing an overview.
Ps I will watch all your hots videos regardless
If you were fighting other viewers while on a team of viewers I feel like you should do it more often.
The games are always competitive and you just seem more relaxed.
That's why u should use Ctrl+1-4 for lvling up talents. Then u can just chill and lvl up fast mid fight instead of dragin away ur mouse from the screen
We are getting closer and closer to murky, cant wait
21:37 feels good.. sssssstaa... fan of knives kill🔥
9:45 casually talking about skills while destroying brightwing, pricless.
I recommend getting Blade Dance at lvl 4 with the W build. The bonus dmg from Blade Dance gives you an extra stack for the lvl 16 talent "Cruel Chain".
I don't really have anyone else to tell because I don't really play Blizzard games anymore because of this, but I put THOUSANDS of hours into this game. I was one of the highest level Arthas in NA, maybe the highest level. I did 99% of my games on him, usually as bruiser Arthas with Sindy and attack speed. Always did my job, got a few upvotes in the end game MVP screen.
I played five games of Maiev, loved her, saw her as a third favorite behind Arthas and THE Butcher. The only time I got 9 votes was on Maiev and it felt just spectacular. She feels great.
Unfortunately my ex deleted my blizzard account so all that is gone and I don't think I'll ever go back, but... this was a happy memory. I always enjoyed Maiev and hearing you enjoy her was neat.
your ex deleted your account?? lmaooooooo. just send a support ticket and get it back
Man have I been waiting for this video!
Maiev on my team: Gets out ranged and messed up by everything and everyone.
Maieve on enemy team: Unkillable CC machine. Capable of locking down and escaping an entire enemy team, without going below 50% health.
"Life is a lie. Everything's meaningless." Wow Pally. Gettin deep up in heeyuh!
10 minutes in and the amount of time that the team ignored the objective, standing close and not capturing it was infuriating
A - Z part 47 to be honest she is just so stylish
13:50 I mean, my fingers are skinny and I manage to "fat" click things all the time. Anything is possible xD
You did really well especially considering Deathwing Garrosh and Brightwing are hell to play into as Maiev
I have never clinched so hard in my life there towards the end.
Thanks Pally! Your videos are always fun :)
Picks a hero that can displace two nearby heroes at the same time.
Meets Abathur and Deathwing…
Maiev
That alexstraza is living my dream of playing with a stitche
I did not see that comeback happening.
Gave a like before i saw the video! Love Maiev and love you :3
Actually, Maiev was very strong from the beginning. It was people who didn't know how to play her.
Nad even during HGC time, Maiev was the first pick/ban since she appeared - she was and is now very hard to play and very team-oriented.
Hey Pally, nice match, I love that build but I don't really think that was the context for it and that's why I think you struggled, awesome comeback regardless of build though! Looking forward to your next videos, can't wait to see what you do with Zeratul.
I got back into hots of because of you and love the content
Hey, thanks for your series, Pally! I was hoping you would go for Q build, since she can just oblitarate enemies if you can aim at 2 target at once=)
Now I want to try Maiev myself and absolutely suck playing her
Great match and I learned how to play her
Maiev slaps in aram. Especially vs a melee heavy team.
Nice comeback!
Man I love the luchador skins, Diablo's the most but I can't think of any that aren't cool.
Gold player here, I often Aba clone the tank to encourage my QM team to engage or take core :'D
Bonus points for Garrosh because you can throw them onto what they should be doing hehe
I think Maieve has talent that resetQ if hit multiple heroes. That one is super strong because it has such a large range.
Its on ability u dont need talent for that
i think your gameplay is a good example to show how hard maiev is to play well. i mean there are heroes who are harder like samuro for example but maiev definitely needs practice to be good with her another thing why i love her if you played her well she was really strong if not well... x)
She's like Kel'Thuzad level of difficulty for me. Love both heroes though, despite I totally suck with them.:D
Yes mine buld Abathur is super toxic.
Just like Valeera it is incredibly toxic, frustrating and unfun to play against in an uncoordinated environment, but also practically trivial for coordinated teams to deal with. So it just Stays Like That in the game.
When even pallytime stops playing quickmatch because of the matchmaker, you know its plumeted to shit
"I love displacements which is why I love Stitches and Junkrat..." and Garrosh now, right?
What sort of changes does HoTS still get these days? New heroes, maps, balance changes? Haven't played in a while.
forget miev you showed off what persistence look like,
Holy crap that was a tense ending 😅
I thought this is a sure lose but in the end you win
When Ab can try take the objective & walk away unpunished because your team is paying so little attention to it, included the one team member literally staying to defend it lol
Game was rough, you can tell she just doesn't click with Pally. Which is fine, everybody's got a character like that, but woof
I did one game and was a win, eventhough I did nothing but feed. I did help get some merc camps though. I don't know when them focusing on me got them baited out to be killed by my team members?
Great match!
Very enjoyable game! GG to both teams
did they decreased alex's local healing area?
Remember when Maiev could 1v3 and stay above 60% health? Good times
i feel like this miev game was the same as the last a-z
"No comeback mechanics" XD
great video
Love it!
12:10 I was today-years old when I found out you can time out Death Wing with Maiev's prison. Wasn't he supposed to not be able to get CCd; does this mean Maw also works against him?
Stasis is not CC and you cannot maw him
Literally forgot she existed
Hey, anyone else having fps drops (unplayable level) after the new patch?
Maiev is freaking hard to play
You sit on your talents a LOT, bro
is this in eu or usa servers ?
Even Garrosh's displacement?
Probably not the ideal lvl 1 with aba, a little rougher then normal to complete the quest
Can also just auto a minion/wall to get stacks for the secondary targets
Wait, she can stasis DWing? Isn't he immune to everything?
He can be affected by stasis, like Chromie time trap or Zeratul and Medivh (and Maiev) ults.
Listen, DW was only allowed to be actually effective for about a month...
@@_Noirscape did not know that. I think that shouldn't be the case, after all he is advertised as completely immune to CC
@@RicardoAlmeidatm He's classified as "unstoppable", which doesn't stop any stasis effects on any character.
@@_Noirscape Technically Chromie's Time Traps are not "Stasis" they are "Stopped" which also stops Cooldowns, so it works slightly different than "Stasis". But yeah, DW can be affected by both "Stasis" and "Stopped." Also "Shrink Ray" can be used on him as well. At least he can no longer be "Blinded."
enjoyable
Where's Illidan?
NOICE!
amazing game real bitter
Maiev is riding a zebra.
Zebras, being wild animals, cannot and do not want to be used as steeds. You must breed their "wild side" out of them for you to even ride on one.
Having their "wild side" breed out of them would be good head cannon as to why the HoTS "Zebra" doesn't have the same tail as a real Zebra.
Not sure the level 1 quest is worth it, considering you didn't work on it after 3mn...
Maiev still searching for that booty call.

Win/Loss: 37-10; 78.7%

Nice game
Very good game exciting match.
Hell yeah let's hooo
Qm is full of tilt.
Toad build nazeebo
Ah yes, 0.6%... almost half a percent
Finally
MattyP!!!!!
That KT was all over you Pally.....
Do you speak german?
The amount of time Pally spent walking around doing nothing during tfs was huge. I blame Maiev for this. Worst mele assassin hands down. Her kit doesnt make sense
Less than three
I don't see you using your Q at easy opportunities for resets. You're playing too scared for a Maiev.
Its lava not magma
lost so many kills due to the wrong playing of this character sadly
nice guy, good streamer ;=) but he plays her awfully xD one of the players you see in qm who never get any quest completed, nor have they any clue which to pick (except the sudden vengeance pick) otherwise no real reflection given about what to pick at one time (there are three main skill trees)... no references to good maiev players. Generally, a random maiev player. But I do really think that this is a Maiev problem because u need to practice and she is not intuitive... gosh, he's not even using his Q ever
First!
Always waste to be the first one 🤣😂
