GIJoe Members that Excell with Queen include FMage and Sphynx
1) Talents: Cunning, Fitness, Prodigy, Brilliance, Youth, *Transport* (Transport is a key skill for queen that I highly suggest, to avoid missing any creeps while laning)
2) Ability Order: QEQWQRQWEWREWEYRYY
3) Item Order:
1 - Soul Engine (Its cheap, and since Queen kills ALOT of creeps, this is a massively useful item to start with)... provides healing and energy regen on every creep kill
2 - Energy Regen Ring
3 - Regen Ring --> Lost Treasure
4 - Ihan Crystal- The regen is needed for spamming spell, and the INT and Health stack all important for early survival
5 - Nitrogen Retrofit - Key reason for this item is the slow on spell damage. This aids banellings striking heroes once a first one hits. (Note Banellings hitting target more important than their damage!!)
6 - Gravity Edge - To max spell damage
7 - Yamato Reactor - For spell damage, speed boost, and Cool Down Reduction (helping Queen spam spells)
Additional Items: Kassia Crystal for healing. Korhal Vanguard for buffing creeps and allies. Symphonic Seed is great when you get assists. Any Intel or Armor item is usually your key for new possible items.
Alternative Build: Max out your CDReduction in order to literally spam spells ALOT. The Ultralisk can stay alive the entire time, and be recast when it dies with 3-4 CDR items.
4) Notes on gameplay:
I have a few key suggestions.
1 - Stay on your creep. You have decent movement speed on the creep, but you are the slowest character in the game off it. DO NOT walk in dangerous areas without creep... You will be ganked and killed easily, even with your tanky, healing, banelling defence.
2 - Remember you are a Caster. Play more like Raynor, and you will live for a long time. Beyond very early, Never use your auto attack. Not on a Tower, not on a hero. Its pretty worthless. But mostly, because if you are that close to enemy heroes, you will die. Stay well back, and cast
3 - Early Game, prioritize killing creeps, not heroes. The heroes will dodge your banellings, thus wasting them. Banellings are your ONLY weapon really, and ONLY strength. They need to kill as many creeps as possible. I aim the hero to place a deep creep colony, or when i think he is playing dumb, or pushing into me. But generally I pick creeps firs The enemy hero should be poor as their tower should be stealing a decent number of their kills. You can't die early... It will result in you being blown out. You have to do the early game well. Try to play flawless. Take no risks. That is how Queen excels. Risky queens are bad queens.
Queen can be alot of fun. Enjoy.
