Blizzard Announces New Hero For Heroes Of The Storm

If Overwatch isn’t your kind of MOBA and Heroes of the Storm is more your style, you’ll be pleased to learn that despite the success of Overwatch, Blizzard isn’t neglecting Heroes of the Storm. In fact in a recent Facebook Live video, Blizzard announced a new hero that they will be adding into the game in the form of Warcraft’s Zul’jin.

For those unfamiliar with Warcraft lore, Zul’jin is a character from the universe and is also the final boss in the World of Warcraft raid, Zul’Aman which was released in the Burning Crusade expansion. As is the case with all heroes in Heroes of the Storm, Zul’Jin will come with a variety of different kills along with two “ultimates” that players can choose from.

The regular skills include Grievous Throw, Twin Cleave, and Regeneration. He will also have a Berserker trait that allows his to increase his attack speed per 1% of missing health. His ultimate abilities include Taz’dingo that makes him unkillable over the course of 4 seconds, as well as Guillotine that “throws a massive guillotine into the sky that crashes down on enemies in the targeted area. The lower Zul’jin’s Health, the more damage it deals.”

The character is expected to be made available in the game come January 2017, but in the meantime you can check out some of his skills in action in the video above.
