Blizzard’s MOBA Heroes of the Storm will soon receive new heroes. Thanks to a leak for BlizzCon 2017, the two heroes Hanzo and Alexstrasza have been basically confirmed.
Oops, something went seriously wrong. On the Chinese site of Heroes of the Storm, there was briefly an image of Overwatch archer Hanzo and dragon aspect Alexstrasza from WoW instead of the usual Halloween theme.
According to rumors, Hanzo and Alexstrasza were planned as new characters in HotS, and it seems to be confirmed now!
Hanzo and Alexstrasza – What are their skills likely to be?
More information about the two new heroes will surely be available at BlizzCon 2017, which starts today (November 3rd) at 7 PM. However, some assumptions about the skills of the new heroes can already be made.
Hanzo as a ranged assassin?
Hanzo is likely to become a ranged assassin. He will probably rely on strong skill shots and shoot bouncing arrows around corners. His ultimate known from Overwatch could work similarly to Sergeant Hammer’s skill “Barrage Cannon”.
Will Alexstrasza be a hybrid hero with two forms?
On the other hand, Alexstrasza is likely to be a bit more original. According to some rumors, she could be another hybrid hero, switching between a healer and an assassin when transforming from her human form into her dragon form.
You’ll probably find out more about the two new heroes at BlizzCon this weekend.
Will HotS Hanzo be cooler than his counterpart in Overwatch? At least with Junkrat it worked, the crazy pyromaniac is even crazier in HotS than in Overwatch!
