    Really? That is it? Other than The Butcher's changes, nothing else of substantial value? I was expecting some reworked Heroes...

    Well, I'm quite disappointed here. Many changes that should be done yet none had happened nor we know anything of them going to take place in any near future.

    Raynor's talents are jurassical at best, and I'm pretty sure that's one of the reasons he has fallen completely out of competitive gameplay.

    Sgt. Hammer badly needs a rework too, not only because of her incredibly primitive set of talents (might be even older than Raynor's), but also because she needs an improvement on her life conditions (and maybe something that makes her gameplay more interesting, because right now there is little else to do than place on siege mode and run away from things attacking you).

    Nova has been needing a good rework long before Blizzard made the last big-scale rework. The best thing is, at least when they rework stealth heroes in general they can't ignore her, but still, no idea of when will a change for good happen.

    Lost Vikings are a troll hero at best, and badly need something to stop them from being an autolose button in 90% of the situations.

    Is Azmodan expected to really have teleport? Maybe some improvement of the lvl20 talent of the circle?

    Morales should actually get some changes as well, maybe to make her gameplay more interesting.

    Ok, this is cool but sounds like a single skin, different from the original 3 available pre-release which sucks.

    • Meat dropped by enemy Heroes increased from 5 to 25
    • Once the quest is completed, enemy Heroes continue to drop Meat, giving The Butcher 5 permanent Basic Attack damage per Meat collected 

     

    I'm hoping this means he gets five damage per kill after completing the quest. The wording immediately makes me think he gets 125 attack damage per kill.

    Morales should actually get some changes as well, maybe to make her gameplay more interesting.

    Raynor's talents have some diversity, if the enemy team has heroes like nova, zera, you'd go for a different build, though not too much, though Raynor is supposed to be a simple hero, I'd just buff his numbers, give him more damage to be on par with Valla, Falstad.

    Sgt. Hammer's talents need to be looked onto indeed, but she's a solid choice in the right setup, she can hard push lanes forcing the enemy team to send someone to deal with her and she is a mediocre teamfighter.

    Nova has had a couple of reworks if I remember and right now she is in a fine spot, her talents are diverse. Stealth is also a fine mechanic.

    Lost Vikings aren't that bad, they're in fact very difficult to play and you also need to coordinate your team, get the right draft and make the right shotcalls, so yeah 90% of the time it won't happen.

    Azmodan is fine, maybe some buffs to his level 13 and 16 talents but thats personal.

    Morales is made to be a simple hero, her skillcap comes from activating the grenade at the right time.

    Anyways, these are my opinions.

        Blizzard is celebrating ten years of Heroes of the Storm by making all Heroes free-to-play until June 15 and releasing a special Gear Head Thrall skin!
        On top of that, players who log in between now and June 15 will receive two brand-new portraits, as shown below.

        Ten years ago, the Nexus opened a realm between realms…where anything is possible. Over the years, you have braved this tumultuous universe, commanding some of the most legendary Heroes from across Azeroth, Sanctuary, the Koprulu sector, and future Earth. 

        It’s this community that has made Heroes of the Storm so special, and we’re thrilled to celebrate this milestone alongside you. From now until the next patch on June 15, all Heroes will be free! Plus, everyone who logs in during this time will receive two brand-new portraits to showcase their time battling across the Nexus. Check out the patch notes for full details!

        We’re also excited to release a never-before-seen skin into the shop! In honor of Heroes of the Storm’s 10th anniversary, as well as Warcraft’s 30th, what better Hero skin to release from the vault than the one and only Thrall? Gear Head Thrall is now available through the in-game shop for 1500 Gems. And keep your eyes peeled—the Classic Games team is combing through the archives, searching for unreleased skins that would need some finishing touches for release, possibly bringing us more in the future.

        We know Heroes of the Storm means a lot to so many of you, and we cannot thank you enough for the passion you continue to show this game after an entire decade. From the Classic Games team and all of Blizzard, thank you!
        We’ll see you in the Nexus.
