Heroes of the Storm's development is winding down, but as of now, new characters are still arriving. We can likely expect this cadence throughout the year as heroes who were previously in development need to see the light of day, but after ...

As I mentioned last week, Heroes of the Storm might be winding down when it comes to support from the top ranks of Blizzard (and Activision), but the team that's left is still passionate and willing to support the game as long as possi...

Blizzard just launched its latest patch for Heroes of the Storm this week, and among many alterations and balance changes comes one major update: Janitor Leoric. I know what you're thinking: what's the big deal with a skin? Well, it origina...

Blizzard took to the stage at this year's BlizzCon to announce that Orphea, the Raven Lord's daughter, was coming to Heroes of the Storm. For Heroes players who even know who the Raven Lord is there was a mixed reaction. For every...

Blizzard kicked off BlizzCon right with a brand new original character reveal for Heroes of the Storm: Orphea. In the clip, Orphea is arguing with The Raven Lord (another original Heroes character) and does battle with her dark powers...

After years and years of Warcraft III (I'm so glad that game doesn't have a /played command) I've had plenty of time to assess which hero is my favorite. All of them have their own charm, but the Dreadlord (a role often times filled by...

For the past several years I've wanted Dreadlord representation in Heroes of the Storm and I got it. As a cornerstone of my Warcraft III experience the undead Dreadlord hero was a matter of if, not when, for the game, and Blizzard...

Deathwing the Destroyer is a pretty popular Warcraft character. In addition to shaking the very planes of the World of Warcraft universe he's also become an avenue for fan art (especially given that he has a dragon and human form): and has ...

As a reminder, most MOBAs tend to release characters in rapid succession, especially when the game is in its infancy, but teams also eye old decaying choices that fall victim to power creep in the form of "reworks." Blizzard has been steppi...

I've been waiting for a priest, specifically of the shadow variety, since Heroes of the Storm was first announced. While Anduin, poised to reclaim the glory of the alliance in the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion, seemed like the m...

Blizzard has been doing a bang-up job with both Heroes of the Storm and Overwatch. What would normally be an innocuous cosmetic drop has now become a series of events, and most recently the former is elaborating on its GI Joe vs. Cobra-esqu...

[Update: You can find her spotlight below as well as this landing page detailing her basic abilities and heroics.] It's been a long, long time since the last Heroes of the Storm character. The development team has noted many times (includin...

There's no new character this week, but the latest Heroes of the Storm patch is one of the biggest updates of the year.  The main event is definitely the Mad Max-ian "Raiders of Warchrome" celebration, which brings new wasteland skins ...

If you haven't played Heroes of the Storm, find a friend that has and have them onboard you using the free client. I've been playing it since its alpha, and I've found it to be a refreshing, sometimes flawed truncated take on the MOBA genre...

Blizzard knows how to push skin events; they have it down to a science at this point. This latest one is worth taking a peek at too, as Blizzard is bringing the Mad Max flair into "Raiders of Warchrome." In addition to the existing Gar...
