Heroes of the Storm 2.0

Hey guys, girls, friends and fellows

I'm not sure if you are still vising this forum, but I have to mention that you should realy check out Heroes of the Storm.

I started to give it a shot last year after I played a few games in the beta (in spring 2015) .... realy lovin' it
Blizzard is realeasing every 2-3 weeks a new hero, does almost every week a balance update, reworks "old" heroes and is pretty active on reddit (they answer questions or implement suggestions from reddit users quite often)

So since the release in June 2015 we got

• 6 New Maps in Total (13 in total now)
  
• 1 Reworked Map
  
• 29 New Heroes (66 in total now)
  
• 33 Hero Reworks
  
• Tons of New Mounts & Skins
  
• Completely Reworked Ranking System (bronze, silver, gold, plat, dia, mstr, GM - kinda like the same like in Starcraft 2)
  
• Unranked Draft Mode
  
• Weekly Brawls (New Wacky map each week)
  
• Huge Improvements to Match Making
  
• Ton of Seasonal Events (Hallow’s End, Christmas etc.)
  
• Heroes Global Championship (Weekly eSports Tournament)
  
• Numerous UI Improvements
  
• Endless Balance Updates

And tomorrow (25th April) they are releasing Heroes of the Storm 2.0 with lots of new content !
(The content can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/heroesofthestorm/comments/678bw7/everything_were_getting_in_just_a_one_week_period/)

If you login until 22nd May '17 you can choose one of four Bundles giving you 20 heroes for free.

and if you have played it before you'll get alot of free lootboxes when you login or managed to get to the max player lvl of 40 you are additionaly awarded with a 30-day stim (more exp/gold)

So its probably worth to give it a (second) shot

what i appreciate about this game is that,

• you play with known heroes from the blizzard universe
  
• its balanced like most blizzard games
  
• its updated very frequently (balances and new stuff)
  
• 13 maps give you a nice variety of different games
  
• and for HnA players... games normaly last for about 20-22min in average (shortest was 8min and longest was 35min which happens realy rare) and 5v5 team fights start when you reach lvl10 at about the 7min mark

Hey Scooby!

I'm still here - Heroes of the Storm is just great - it's too bad i will probably never be able to play with you guys from EU server due to lag etc.

Would definitely encourage anybody into MOBAs to check out the game though - it's better than ever.
