Blizzard Entertainment has published the latest patch notes on the official Heroes of the Storm site.
- New Hero, Mal’ganis
Cunning and intelligent, Mal’Ganis was chosen to bring Arthas Menthil into the Lich King’s service. After manipulating the prince into purging Stratholme of life, he finally fell to Frostmourne as Arthas’s first act as the Lich King’s champion… yet a demon does not die so easily.
- The developers have unified a number of Support Heroes’ abilities to only work on Heroes (not minions or Mercenaries).
We’re unifying the vast majority of our heals for their intended purpose: healing allied Heroes. We’re maintaining the ability for a few heals to affected Minions still where we think it’s an important part of their gameplay: Lt. Morales Healing Beam (so that she can heal herself), Rehgar’s Chain Heal (to allow bounces travel across Minions), Tyrael’s Righteousness (because shielding Minion waves is part of the lane interaction with the ability), and Uther’s Holy Radiance (to unify expectations, since it can damage Minions).
- Update to Collection: New Bundles (Mal’ganis Heroic Bundle, Death & Undeath Bundle, Meat Wagon Bundle), Mal’ganis Announcer, New Mounts (Northrend, Blackrock & Deathguard Meat Wagons, Wonder William Mount), New Skins, Portraits, Sprays and Emojis
