How do you speedrun a MOBA?! Well, I'll tell you! Amazingly, there is a cottage industry of speedrunners for Heroes of the Storm. Spotted on Reddit, these brave souls apparently go solo, fight no enemies, and try to take down the opposing c...

I still play and love Heroes of the Storm. It might be very low on Blizzard's priority list right now, but the framework is still there, and it still plays like one of the most accessible MOBAs ever made. That much hasn't changed. The ...

BlizzCon's chance for a physical meetup (safely) came and went, but now it's time for the publisher to shine...digitally, in February. As previously announced, it's going to be free to watch. But before that happens, you can get in on ...

Part Tasmanian Devil, part Crash Bandicoot, all World of Warcraft boss: Hogger is now a part of Heroes of the Storm as a playable character. Who would have thought! We just had to pick the brain of David Warner, senior game design...

[Update: It's Hogger! On the day of the new World of Warcraft expansion launch, we now have a new Warcraft character entering the Nexus soon. You can find his spotlight video below, as well as his patch notes here.] Although the n...

Heroes of the Storm is a beast of a game. It's survived multiple directorial shifts and countless MOBAs have come and gone since it was initially released. It's also one of my most-played games of all time. Through thick and thin, the Heroe...

No, "Craft Wars" is not the latest hit reality show featuring dueling teams of art majors: it's the newest Heroes of the Storm event. It means exactly what it says, in that it combines Starcraft and Warcraft into one gam...

Once again, huge changes are coming to the very much alive Heroes of the Storm. Amid reworks for D.va and Gazlowe, the game is also eliminating Heroes Brawl (RIP and replacing it with ARAM (All Random All Middle). In case you forgot, Heroes...

Overwatch's D.va was introduced to Heroes of the Storm in mid-2017 to a mixed welcome. Although there are D.va fans out there and folks who can make her work, she's slowly lost favor with the general playerbase due to a mixed-flavor kit tha...

Heroes of the Storm has been down in the past, but not out. As someone who has played it nearly every week since its alpha, it's very hard to actually call it "down" actually. Although Blizzard unceremoniously declared that it was winding d...

"What can [one] do against such reckless hate?" is probably what the Heroes of the Storm developers were thinking after they unleashed the "weather anomaly" mechanic into the game several weeks ago. Although the hero Mei has been a bon...

Heroes of the Storm is coming up on its second year of "maintenance mode," an era in which Blizzard has greatly reduced the number of people on its development team and has dropped all official esports support. It's also still one of my mos...

After a long hiatus, both a tank hero and an Overwatch character have re-invaded Heroes of the Storm. Mei probably isn't the first pick for a lot of players when it comes to crossovers, but she slots in quite nicely with the crew ...

Welp, the mad people over at the Heroes of the Storm Reddit did it: they predicted the next character with blazing accuracy. Although the recent unexplained bout of in-game snow could have been teasing any number of chilly heroes, Mei...

Remember when select people based an entire leak off of whether or not the "same tree" was found in a reflection? This is kind of like that, but in-game! Taking to Reddit, f1bermau5 shared a discovery that seems to imply that Heroes of the ...

Every so often, dreams do come true. A few years back, an artist came up with an idea for the "Janitor Leoric" skin for Heroes of the Storm, and Blizzard made it happen. Now, I hope the same miracle occurs for the similarly clever "Professo...

It's hard to believe that I've been playing Heroes of the Storm consistently, every month, since it was available in alpha form in 2014. I'd have to really think about it, but it might be my most-played non-MMO title of all time. ...

Yes, Heroes of the Storm is still around. Although I wish the development team had more resources and backing from Blizzard, the team that does remain is doing a fantastic job of keeping everything fresh, delivering new events, me...

Heroes of the Storm is continuing its "Nexus Anomaly" concept, which drastically alters various bits of the game as a form of experimentation to keep the game fresh. If the community takes a liking to a particular feature, it could sti...

[Update: Blizzard has extended the free hero period to April 13.] As publishers continue to fight for the attention of everyone currently quarantined due to coronavirus (COVID-19) concerns, more and more "free" offers are popping up on vari...

As promised, Blizzard just implemented the "Toys 2" event in Heroes of the Storm, which brings back the popular "Toys" celebration. The gist? You're getting a free pack of challenges that unlock cosmetics, as well as the always-popular...

I've been playing Heroes of the Storm for over four years now. There are very few games that manage to keep me captivated that long, but alas, the Heroes team managed to grab me where so many other MOBAs haven't. While others chase DOTA's f...

[Update: Blizzard briefly acknowledged Heroes during the opening ceremony today, confirming that Deathwing is going to be free for BlizzCon pass holders. All heroes will be free until November 10.] Despite the fact that it doesn't get ...

Heroes of the Storm is not dead. Although development has slowed down considerably (there have only been a few new characters out in 2019 compared to the usual cadence of "a ton") and the esports arm has been shut down, there's still a...

BlizzCon 2019 is scheduled for November 1-3 this year, and we can expect a whole host of announcements from Blizzard's standard stable of games, which now includes Overwatch. While all eyes are on a potential Overwatch sequel, we'll probabl...
