Ah, no clue. If they did I missed it.
I'd actually be curious to see how much backlash they'd take if they moved Gul'dan, Valeera, Rexxar, Malfurion, Jaina, Medivh, Uther, Tyrande, and Thrall to a Hearthstone tab. I'd argue that if you just went off of WoW you could probably move several of those as they are just bit players or from past games, but I know Warcraft fans would be in an uproar.
If you look at it, Hearthstone heroes are probably a good indication of what we are getting. Almost every one of them is in game. I'd imagine they will complete the set.
We're missing Alleria (could be a skin), Khadgar, Liadrin, Anduin, Morgl (could be a skin), Garrosh, and Magni (is a skin already).
I don't know, but that would be hilarious as well. Always kind of wondered if they might ever simultaneously launch a hero on both games.
He's never coming. Give it up.
If you mean the leak that included Gul'Dan, Auriel, Varian, the SC maps, etc, I believe the only hero that leaker mentioned that hasn't been released yet is Aiden (the Warrior from the original Diablo who became the Dark Wanderer), and he almost certainly wouldn't be a support.
I'd say the most likely coming support would be Anduin Wrynn, the character representing the Priest Class from Hearthstone (and is also in WoW of course).
We could also get a support from Overwatch. Ana or Lucio maybe.
Blizz knows we want more supports, and at Blizzcon said more were coming, but not for a while. So I feel like we've still got another hero or two after Valeera before we get another support.
Quest + Boomerang is the way
Love me some Zenyatta too whenever I play overwatch.
I don't know how to build Falstad anymore either. I don't know which build is better for what situation (mage, rod or aa). However, I really do like his pirate skin. Wonder if they'll other skins themed like that.

Wait is that uncapped?
I had hoped for some Heroic changes those seem so weak.
Rooster mount as a quest reward I like this a lot. Gold Rooster is a gold sink. Guess I did good holding onto mine.
Looks like Milly has his wish. You can run Cursed Hollow without objectives. This is the purest map we could have for a MOBA in HOTS.
I like where they are going with Valeera. A nice sequence you can build like a fighting game combo. I think this will be the first hero I'll buy in a while even thought I said the same thing with Rag and ended up waiting on it.
Lots of talents that are baked in for Tassadar now. He'll be even more deadly with melee assassins now.
I don't know what to think of Rexxar changes :/.

Hmm, I wonder if there any restrictions on Vanish or whether it can be activated at any time? Will the CD on it start after you break stealth or after you first vanish? Does the 1 second of being unrevealed mean that you get 1 second of stealth no matter what or will dots break you out immediately?
The ideal initiation may be to first store two combo points and then stealth and wait for the CD to expire. Then when you engage on someone using a stealth ability you'll have 3 combo points so you can use 3-point Evis and then immediately vanish and cheap shot, then Sinister Strike and Blade Furry and finish with another 3-Point Evis.
Or if they're not as mobile you can switch the order around so stealth ability, three point evis, sinister strike + blade flurry, vanish, stealth ability, three point evis, sinister+blade flurry, 2 point evis.

They reverted the stupid QM-focused change to that ability.

RIP, no poison
She has literally every poison from WoW as talents - they are all there, as separate activatables. and some of them are freaking crazy (she gets the mortal strike poison at level 4. 50% reduced healing for 4 seconds, on a 15 second cooldown - eat your heart out xul!)

Cool, I may even buy her, but I am not good with assassins
Necromancer poison was crap anyway.

Does she have mana? Is she classified as a "hard" hero?
too much frontpage or r/all reddit is bad for your health.
Classified as Hard, has energy and combo points (3 instead of 5)
edit: They just put up a post apologizing for the 5x Warcraft Assassin thing while promising AT LEAST TWO supports this year. https://us.battle.net/forums/en/heroes/topic/20752651047
Haven't seen em online yet, but holy bejesus they're complex.
Per the Warcraft Assassins post, that's exactly what she's meant to do. "Enemy Carry Disabler"
She's a Chromie murderer.

Why is your av upside down
So I'm not sure the new tassadar is actually very good. The fact he basically doesn't have an auto attack is a lot more crippling than you would think/. He now loses 1 on 1 versus every hero in the game, and his wave clear is anaemic.
Need to play around more, but doesn't feel as good as his talents looked.
