[April Fool's]In Development: Talandar, Co-op Missions, and More!

LOLOLOL

[@janusan89]

Goddamn, for an april's fools this is so well done.

[@SpectreCiNW]

indeed

[@nekoali2]

Seriously, I would love most of this to be put in the game...

[@Slaanash]

Kinda sad when the april fool's joke is more exciting than most of Blizzard's actual announcements.

[@vladimirandric1205]

Slaanash yea,this update would be more interesting than HOTS 2.0

[@waldzwolf6296]

Still hope the Aprils joke is that this is officially just a joke. But its real in truth.

[@sherlockinsomniac]

It's one thing to pander to the every whim of drooling fanboys. Another to make a balanced game.

[@TheYoungWolfI]

Talandar? I hope you're joking. That would be shit. Fenix dragoon or nothing. SC2 story was cliche predictable shit.

[@kelly5414]

@Tony Bjornson You're good at copy and paste

[@TheZajicekfarber]

God I wish this was real.

[@quadpictures]

god i wish that were me

[@TheYoungWolfI]

Talandar? I hope you're joking. That would be shit. Fenix dragoon or nothing. SC2 story was cliche predictable shit.

[@kelly5414]

@Tony Bjornson You're good at copy and paste

[@TheYoungWolfI]

Thanks. had to reach as many people as possible, who were making the absolutely brutal mistake of thinking this would be a good idea.

[@napalmman8202]

+Tony Bjornson shut up, nobody wants to hear your damn opinion

[@shaburanigud]

You got me so hyped and now I'm punished for it. But srsly Co-op mode would be awesome. All the boss fights we could go for! Amon, The Overmind, Kil'jaeden, Deathwing, Ragnoros, Belial, Zurvan... Blizzard this NEEDS TO HAPPEN!

[@reubenfrench6288]

I'd love to see Ragnaros kill Ragnaros in a boss fight.

[@SpectreCiNW]

shaburanigud post your comment to blizzard cuz you are so right just wait for April's fools to over

[@manu1324x]

blizz too greedy/lazy to imagine this

[@SpectreCiNW]

Too lazy/greedy? They freaking put Alarak and cho"gall in the game

[@SpectreCiNW]

Eu4 PLeb oh didn't thought of that

[@BingBangPoe]

Coop Missions is something we need so damn much.

[@omargontier]

+

[@Epitaph1334]

Agreed!

[@titusrodriguez2057]

what why? 10 v 1 sounds chaotic and i like it but yea facing amon dw ragnaros DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i mean kiljaden guldan???? sargeras once we see his face

[@Rakinjo2]

I think a PvE-mode like that could be really interesting, but Blizzard seem very keen on not doing stuff like that outside their major franchises. HotS and OW seem to be dedicated multiplayer experiences, which is a bit of a shame. I feel like that needlessly blocks out a considerable amount of potential players. OW Have given us a taste with the Halloween even and the recent Uprising one. I think it was pretty cool. A nice way to just chill with some friends if you didn't feel like spamming Quick Play.

[@Rakinjo2]

Jesus! I'm not sure why you're so salty. o.O I mean, your arguments are absolute nonsense. Starcraft is heavily focused on it's online PvP-component, and the popularity of the first game was very much enhanced by the online multiplayer aspect. Starcraft 2 even involves a lot of Co-op these days. Both games also had a campaign, despite their online focus. World of Warcraft is largely a multiplayer co-op game, which has a rich story and a vast amount of content available to solo-players. It still has dedicated PvP. Warcraft 3 is one of the most prolific online PvP games of all times, either directly or indirectly leading to the birth of several genres. The game both had dedicated PvP and a strong singleplayer campaign, that spawned the most successful MMO released to date. Since you're being so general and matter-of-fact about it, allow me to do the same: Call of Duty and Battlefield are both popular franchises with a strong PvP-focus. Both have campaigns. Several Battlefield-titles have had co-op content, and I know for a fact the same is true for Call of Duty, what with it's zombie expansions and what not. Neither Heroes of the Storm nor Overwatch are franchises. They're standalone titles. Ignoring that, Blizzard themselves have stated their desire to expand on singleplayer or co-op content in OW, so the notion that their focus is entirely on PvP is false. Obvious HotS is primarily a PvP experience, but the premise and concept is very much ripe for some kind of campaign or Co-op mission. They could set up a pretty neat story for it. So, basically, when you're done being unreasonably and irrationally angry at people who think co-op or singleplayer content in OW or HotS could be a fun distraction, please just chill?

[@Dsingis]

I was genuinely hyped for a second, then I remembered the kind of videos you make xD Nicely created tho'

[@punishmentsin1837]

Maybe I should create a new channel next time:)

[@Dsingis]

Creating a new channel just to fool us even harder? xD Would be in the spirit of April 1st xD

[@armandomontero2423]

This was leak this morning on a chinese website...

[@TheYoungWolfI]

Talandar? I hope you're joking. That would be shit. Fenix dragoon or nothing. SC2 story was cliche predictable shit.

[@WereWade]

Maybe the April fools here is that it isn't an April Fools :D haha This stuff is coming out. Some random quick matches, you may actually face an Amon infested team and all 10 of you have to come together to beat it. Y'all are going to be so crazy hyped when you realize this is really happening later on.

[@punishmentsin1837]

Almost 100,000 views? God. So glad that all of you enjoy it. And as always, there will be more.

[@wenliu4347]

啊哈。活捉，大师球~

[@dertobbe1176]

Punishment Sin u guy should work for blizzard. ur skins and ideas are rly awesome

[@mLLw84]

This should be real :(

[@mirahorner6277]

Punishment Sin there is still mystery...what is fenix's trait?

[@lukesdewhurst]

haha I was like who the fuck is Kalandros (Talandar******)?

[@darkydrone]

The void charger has other color variations?

[@QuanTrietLOL]

darkydrone What the hell? You've just seen 3 of them.

[@Weigazod]

Yeah, X-ray Void Charger Gamma Void Charger Microwave Void Charger

[@ismaelmedeiros8161]

He must be colorblind

[@zairaner1489]

Yeah, one variation is called "invincible charger"

[@johnstorm9604]

DAT CHROMIE SKIN IS AMAZING

[@kalmyck3472]

we need that sorta thing for azmodan, except with the protoss theme. Like seriously: void ray weapon - CHECK; disruptor shots - CHECK; warp-in ability - CHECK

[@wyldcow899]

+PixCap You sir, are a great mind that should tell that to blizzard

[@bruderdasisteinschwerermangel]

This is strangely well made.... How'd you do it?

[@SpectreCiNW]

sc2 editor

[@Doncroft1]

Starcraft II assets.

[@Requiem100500]

I think Blizzard will like the idea of Void Charger: Making people pay for literally nothing.

[@UncleGhiral]

Requiem100500 they're doing it right now though

[@GuardianTactician]

It should have been called "Invincible". Because no one can see it.

[@noiZTaken]

Thomas Eddy Invisible* not invincible

[@GuardianTactician]

That was part of the joke. There is a mount called "Invincible" in World of Warcraft that has a low drop rate. Trolls in the community will act like it is invisible because that would explain why they cannot see it when they kill the boss who drops it.

[@noiZTaken]

Thomas Eddy im sorry, i dont play any other blizzard games other than HoTs and Overwatch

[@KeppyKep]

Holy cow. Yet another insanely well executed video, full of absolutely brilliant ideas. I think this may be your best yet. Can't even begin to imagine how long it took. Great job, thank you for the awesome content

[@rmyd027]

In all honesty that Ravager mix with Chromie is the kind of shit Blizzard NEEDS to do. its fine giving the characters different "Outfits" but having the character have a brand new character model would be cool. and funny enough the Ravager is very similar to Chromie aside from her Ults.

[@hiway19891]

They already have Widow Maker as a skin for Nova so why the hell not?

[@JonathanSharman]

Changing the character model seriously hurts visual clarity. You need to be able to tell what hero you're looking at in a split second.

[@mr.pancakes8502]

errrr half agree and half don't, after like the first fight (in hots it honestly doesn't matter cause xp gains are balanced) your passively know right then its chormie, and yes you should be able to know if the module is toooo far off, but i mean things like mecha tass and widow nova exist and they change their look A LOT but its not a problem, so i mean why not roll with it

[@assaqwwq]

problem is the hit boxes change sizes, and they kinda need to keep the original size

[@BingBangPoe]

2:20 Void Charger actually made into the game as the Invisible Horse (though it's not really invisible).

[@MrWearethechampion]

dat ragnaros skin tho

[@GallaAlone69]

Blizzard, Hire this guys now! :D

[@Bodioustv]

how is this cooler and sexier than what blizzard has announced haha. Super well done man

[@aretnap11]

Damn. This was so well done

[@ElDocBruh]

Lost it at the Void Charger xD

[@jban0811]

have they realised 10 v 1 coop would be pretty damn good to make yet?

[@roxianv9728]

Holy shit. You've done an insane job creating this. Gz on winning the internet today.

[@Gabrielbarsch]

too good to be true

[@judicatorhurayth1927]

:(

[@ichigokurosakiable]

i like the void charger secundary colors

[@ismaelmedeiros8161]

I like the third one more

[@SpectreCiNW]

Just stellar

[@artgloominati2716]

Void charger. I died.

[@mechakinggidora]

Wish this was real, Amon as a core replacement looks amazing. Very well done.

[@julieannono8967]

Blizz needs to recruit this guy right here, right now. Imagine if the Void Charger was released, I'd lose my shit in matches XD

[@dungtrinh2674]

Blizzard please hire this guy :v

[@razor2341]

You had a couple friends of mine believing in this wholesale because they didn't watch it on youtube but in discord so they didn't see the account name. These are amazingly well done.

[@Felewin]

0:44 Minion on tower!

[@oulhadjouldsaadi9978]

yeb deal with it

[@Liam-gu9rh]

This looked real, but was simultaneously hilarious! You are SO good at this!

[@jonathanyeckley2152]

This is insanely well made. I wish these ideas were with the Blizzard developers and not you. Hahaha

[@jarate5922]

I remember during beta and after there were a coop icon in player profile and it was written something like "in development". That would be so nice. If blizzard makes a new RTS someday they must put MOBA mode in it (they were already testing it in heart of the swarm, which led to heroes of the storm, I think it is a reference because HotS=HotS). Same goes for their MOBA; a Starcraft-style coop but in MOBA style would have saved this game; they didn't realize they had more SC fans playing this game than warcraft. Well, it's a damn shame.

[@MerlinsJester]

The amount of effort that went into this, omg

[@CyberAcidPlanet]

I would absolutely believe in what's in that video if it was uploaded to the official hots youtube channel. Great work!

[@Incentiv]

Frick I was so hyped for a full minute. Bloody well played...

[@moonlapse0121]

Really hilarious video. Nice extraction(from HOTS to SC2) with funny idea. I really love Ravager Chromie idea.

[@madjackal9344]

Damn you for tricking me.... :[ Got so hyped for a unique Rag skin, and chromie skin was amazing. Coop and such great ideas as well, so sad this isnt real.

[@nicholasgreen4571]

Ok so the funny part is blizzard came out with fenix recently and he actually has very similar abilities shown in this video.

[@kitsunez]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? I WANT ALL OF THIS FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

[@DonneyLiu]

LOL, it looks so real. @Blizzard needs to see this! Some splendid ideas in it! 10 vs 1 sounds fun!!

[@Nr2reaper]

Besides the invisible mount, all of this looks extremely promising. Shame its not coming :(

[@lawsontse1545]

Nr2reaper invisible horse came

[@Getsugaru]

Four years have passed, and I still wish this was real.

[@skitelucas1612]

THAT Co-Op tho!! Man, that could be an interesting brawl :D

[@VanRukh]

0:43 I love it when Hammer just goes "NOPE FK THIS" and dips outta there rather then just scooch over a bit to the left.

[@SpectreCiNW]

I thought this was real, I want to die now:'( still lookin cool as hell

[@SpectreCiNW]

truly that was worth waiting for, you just gave me the shockiset April's fools I ever got

[@korrul]

Oh no... I was so excited :( YOU'VE BROKEN MY HEART

[@RighteousNicky]

Talandar actually looks like a pretty good hero I also like the coop missions please bizzard :(

[@Sorcerer86pt]

It had a nifty kit, balancing between harassment and protecting team mates.

[@RavenShugo]

OMG these zerg skins looked sooooo good!!! I want them!!!! And that void charger, best mount, I loved it's curved lines and what they did to it's head....>_

[@Ch1kyo]

holy shit this is so well done. good job dude

[@Darkborn]

Would kill for a 10v1 Co-Op Mission. Nicely done. Talandar looked pretty legit.

[@big_azzy]

I gasped when I saw this, but then I saw the channel name

[@Arthasisalive]

Man, it was sick. My greatest respect from the bottom of my sould to you!

[@zephyrsaix8319]

WHY THIS CANT BE REAL THIS IS SO GOOD

[@thefruitofpassion927]

0:50 That guardian shell ult is actually a pretty nice idea that would be cool to see a hero get.

[@Gershelf]

It hurts to see that Ragnaros skin. He have gotten jack shit for ages, and then you show this amazing version.

[@straynyan]

Holy shit best April fools ever in 2017

[@butifarras]

Void charger is now real

[@MrVernitrax]

It is so well made, great job man :D

[@isnice7534]

Blizzard take the idea of invisible horse from this video lul

[@nazrertwo5098]

this is absurdly well made

[@Decon7]

Damn if only those skins were real xD 10/10 ravager chromie xD

[@mohamedeffat54]

i had more hype for that in-dev video more than any other even though i knew it was from you :D we need moar!

[@whatdothlife4660]

Ravager Chromie is genius!

[@BBspike100]

Talandar, the copy of Fenix: Z= Jump up to sky. Then land on the target location.(Not sure if this require sight) Q= Dash to target location. Stop dash, damage and knock back when impact an enemy hero W= Spin to damage and briefly stun surrounded enemies.(This might have short CD) E= When Talandar's shield depleted, automatic gain a new shield. R1= Set a beam on target location. Damage all enemies hit.(Not sure can the beam move or require sight) R2= Create a barrier surrounding Talandar. Destory all projections in its edge contact. D= Can move and cannot be interrupt while channeling Hearthstone

[@pixelkatplays6521]

Too much work for an april fools joke. SOME of this is coming to hots, guaranteed.

[@javikprothean1469]

The uploader made this video, not Blizzard.

[@javikprothean1469]

"100% False?" lol Do you still think this was made by Blizzard? Go check the uploader's newest video 'April Fool's In Development Behind the Scenes'.

[@javikprothean1469]

It wasn't "leaked" on some Chinese site because the video creator/uploader is Chinese. He uploaded the Chinese version on the Chinese site first, then made an English version for his KZbin channel.

[@rockyyourmama9323]

PixelKat Plays pretty sure the invisble horses are coming with anas update so

[@cosmozone271]

It HAS to.

[@8MileMnM]

Right blizz you did it as an april fools joke but now you really have to put it all in the game cause everyone wants it all!!! :D I bet they had it as an actual idea but weren't too sure about it so they kinda wanted to see the crowd's reaction :D

[@fahminazruddin5500]

Chavdar I'm late but blizzard didn't make this video

[@dinocha0s]

Dat 10 vs 1 mode....i honestly want it in brawl cuz it can be done XD

[@deadfishy666]

For a moment I thought you got me at the Elemental Vulture and I was laughing hard and then the Void Charger came. At that point I was choking in laughter.

[@gundamcollector77]

Blizzard needs to buy these ideas from you.

[@darcraven01]

if blizz actually made Yagdra Ragnaros, i think they would make a shit ton of money... thats amazing looking

[@TakTakNaark]

Any word on if Blizzard has actually seen this shit? It's amazing. Everything in it is something I would like to see, save for the void chargers (for obvious reasons, lol).

[@lawsontse1545]

Tak-Tak Naark ironicky they actually made an invisible horse mount...

[@rokar6866]

Holy shit this is actually really good. I know this isn't real, but still keep up the good work!

[@RingoStarrPEACE]

I want that void charger ^^

[@MorgensternX]

Some of the best ideas they've had, pitched under a bus. That 10v1 would be amazing. The genuinely _different_ skins for existing power-sets like zerg Chromie and Ragnaros would be insta-buy/huge squee out of a loot box.

[@IIIEPJIOK221b]

We want Malthael and Imperius. Where are the main characters of diablo?

[@zaxtonhong3958]

Malthael has a character spotlight today.

[@magiic0]

btw void charger and when yagdra kicks rag's butt while dancing are so funny XD

[@vaneliusmaximus8669]

Is he orisa's husband ?

[@theunholyadventurer2376]

No,Talandar was introduced before orisa,and hes more badass.

[@thessop9439]

The Unholy Adventurer thats why he is Orisa's master

[@vaneliusmaximus8669]

i know i was joking :p

[@ethanthecreator5564]

So Orisa's grandpa then?

[@gabrielreyes8045]

Nah, the Overwatch universe is set in the 2050's, about five hundred years before Fenix became a dragoon and eventually had his memories transferred into the purifier known as Talandar. Safe to say Talandar has Orisa somewhere in his family tree

[@FastFoodVicar]

That was much better than the 2.0 announcementAlso that co op mode looked FUCKING BRUTAL

[@Karcirok]

Plz go Blizzard!

[@cesarvoigt]

Your Fenix concept is way better then the real one.. Awesome fan design!

[@tingliestlasagna2495]

please make ravager chromie a real thing

[@lvl3-wizard81]

Oddly enough, we actually got the invisible horses

[@Halkjaerz]

I would want this over hots 2.0 anytime. Looks so awesome. April fools should not be actual awesome ideas blizzard :/

[@Rakinjo2]

Really nicely put together. Weird sort of April Fool's joke though, as this isn't really anything too absurd - Just lots of stuff that I think most people would genuinely enjoy. x)

[@rite5232]

We need co-op

[@jmpwn8096]

I honestly do wish they would make that ravager skin for chromie

[@HeyFrank]

Jebaited

[@TheKamillo33]

Well, we got the Void Charger, it looks different, but still it's something. Maybe there's a chance we'll get Talandat too

[@Dotdiana0m0]

와씨 속을뻔

[@noohij]

고퀄리티 루어였어...

[@Motolmang]

holy fuck i would love it if they actually did talandar and a pve mode man blizz hire this guy, he did shit you should do for the game just as an april fool's prank.

[@Ixnatifual]

The void charger looks amazing.

[@alexperoff-investingessent8367]

10 v 1 actually looks really awesome!

[@humanarian]

Are you kidding me? That... now, THAT would be absolutely fantastic! Like, one of the best HotS patches EVER!!!

[@rewrite4618]

Co-op and Void charger are actually great, I think. It's quite stunning.

[@ArticalWolf]

O man, Blizzard should've hired you for this. That elemental vulture one was hilarious.

[@LonoB]

This is really well made. Nicely done. Honestly had me at first like "Oh shit" then I remembered the date. Cheers

[@RQS321]

These vids are so well done. Theres almost no way to tell if its fake or not. Well done indeed :)

[@eyeofthasky]

after all we have seen so far, this talandar wouldnt be too extraordinary ...give it to us!

[@seanmccaffrey93]

they should seriously do basically everything in that video!

[@taldierstormborn568]

A bunch of cool stuff that people would actually want - April Fools!
