It is that time again!

This week we had a new addition to the Heroes of the Storm roster, and boy did he make a big impact on the community!

Fan favorite, bearer of the "Loki effect", fire mage extraordinaire, it is the one, the only
Kael'thas Sunstrider!

Being his release week, and being such a big name in the hearts of many WarCraft players, it only felt appropriate to dedicate an entire episode to the Sun King himself.

Talent explanations, combos theorycrafting and a super fast Lightning round at the end!

As always, a huge "thank you" goes to Teiwaz and Exvin, for letting me fry them over and over with my Pyroblast.

Hope you guys enjoy it, mucho amor.

SunGlare.

Yay! More science! My favorite part of the week!

Great episode, I really appreciate the work you put into these vids. Also enjoyed the lightning round near the end of the episode.

Thanks again!

edit, P.S. Why do so many pubs take the phoenix?

Phoenix is often better IMO, but it depends on team comps. If the enemy team is Muradin, Illidan, Tassadar, Brightwing, Jaina, I'm going to pick Phoenix 10/10 times.

Although the fireball is a pyro-blast to use, I think most times you have limited targets and its range makes it difficult to get off in a teamfight without being interrupted.

I enjoyed the episode! I wish I sent in my question sooner, as it related to Pyroblast.

Keep it up!

I agree that phoenix is far better than pyroblast most of the time, but for those reading this with maybe less HOTS experience, remember to take team comps into consideration when choosing a talent.

For instance:

The enemy team has an illidan, and your team only has a zeratul. Zeratual cannot blow up Illidan, because Illidan will simply press e and continue to jump away until he reaches the safety of his teammates. This leaves you to be the self-proclaimed Illidan-eraser. Hide in the bushes and pyroblast your way to victory.

Phoenix is indeed superior in many circumstances.

I will pick it 9 times out of 10 on Sky Temple and other King-of-the-hill style maps!

Thank you all so much for your feedback <3
