Heroes of the Storm - Dehaka Gameplay (Abilities Spotlight)

Dehaka has been officially announced for Heroes of the Storm as being the second Starcraft Warrior to enter the Nexus!

Abilities :
Brushstalker (Z): You cannot use Mounts. Instead, you may burrow to any bush or vent on the Battleground. 40 second cooldown
Trait: Essence Collection (D): You collect 10 Essence per Hero Takedown, and 2 per enemy Minion killed nearby, storing up to a maximum of 50 Essence. Activate to consume all stored Essence and regenerate Health over the next 5 seconds for each stack consumed. Can be cast during Drag and Burrow.
Drag (Q): Lash out with your tongue, dealing light damage to the first enemy hit, and dragging them with you for 1.75 seconds.
Dark Swarm (W): Over the next three seconds, you gain the ability to move through units and deal damage in an area around yourself. Deals double damage to Heroes. Can be cast during Drag and Burrow.
Burrow (E): Burrow into the ground, entering Stasis and becoming Invulnerable for 2 seconds.
Heroic: Isolation (R): Launch biomass that deals damage, silences, and slows the first enemy Hero it hits by 30% for 3 seconds. For the next 6 seconds, the affected enemy loses sight of allied Heroes, and has greatly reduced vision.
Heroic: Adaptation (R): After a 5 second delay, 60% of all damage taken during this time will be returned to you as Health.

Who is Dehaka ?
Dehaka lost his large right arm prior to the Swarm's return to Zerus; it was later to be found in the same area where Sarah Kerrigan defeated the other primal pack leaders.

When the Zerg Swarm returned to Zerus, Dehaka initially opted to simply observe the Swarm and Kerrigan. He witnessed the newcomers awaken Zurvan and the primal-infestation of Kerrigan.

Dehaka perceived Kerrigan as the strongest zerg. He and his pack welcomed the new power by allying with the Swarm, believing Kerrigan would lead them to new essence. Dehaka correctly predicted that the other pack leaders would refuse to similarly adapt; the other pack leaders were destroyed by Kerrigan, including Zurvan. Kerrigan confronted Dehaka afterwards, confirming that Dehaka had known that Zurvan would turn on her. He did not deny this—one zerg would grow strong, the other would fall. Dehaka remained with the Swarm.

Heroes of the Storm (HotS News) - Lost Cavern Battleground (ARAM Map)

WHAT IS LOST CAVERN?
Lost Cavern eliminates Map Objectives and creates a slimmed-down play area in order to remain laser-focused on one constant, single-lane teamfight. The Hearthstones and Starting Area heals have been removed so that Heroes have no reason to fall back from the fight. Regeneration Orb spawns and brush, meanwhile, have been strategically placed around the lane to keep the fights active and interesting.

We've seen that players have been creating one-lane matches on Heroes' existing maps, so we wanted to create a Battleground that makes things a little easier—and maybe even a little more exciting—for everyone who enjoys these games. Don't let any existing rules stop you from coming up with your own new way to play, though, as Lost Cavern is meant to be a free place to experiment and play however you like. Think of this map as a sandbox in which you can express yourself creatively—as well as have fun playing. We can't wait to see what you come up with!

HOW TO PLAY
Lost Cavern will only be available in custom games. You can create a lobby through the "Custom Game" tab of the play screen and then invite your friends, or use our Lobby Link system to invite players through chat channels. Here’s how:

Create your Custom Lobby on Lost Cavern.
Open the Chat channel where you want to link your game.
Type /lobbylink Description
Press Enter to send the message
You did it! Players can now simply click your link and will be automatically placed into your Custom Game Lobby.

Heroes of the Storm (Gameplay) - Arthas Build Guide

Heroes of the Storm Arthas Gameplay Build Guide. The Crimson Count skin came out today and I thought it would a good opportunity to talk about Arthas. In this Tutorial HotS format we go through all of the talent tiers and I give you my input what are the viable choices, in what circumstances and what results you can expect. The Quick Match was carried on the Sky Temple Battleground with my team taking the lead mid game and carrying the momentum to Victory. While the current meta doesn't favor The Lich King he can still work very well depending on the setups. My recommendation would be to try him out in gank squads.

Heroes of the Storm (Patch Review) - Xul Nerf, Nova Buff, Dehaka signs ?...

Heroes of the Storm (Patch Review) - Xul Nerf & Nova Buff & Rehgar Re-Re-Nerf & Sign of Dehaka ? (HotS Balance Update 16.5)

Key Topics :
- Nova Buff
- Xul Nerf 
- Rehgar Nerf (The Trilogy)
- New Possible Hero Dehaka or Vol'jin

Official Patch Notes : http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/forum/...

Not a lot of balance changes this patch but I am happy to see more buffs to our sexy sniper, the Xul nerfs where completely justified and I will follow his progress to see how hard was he affected. Rehgar now has a big bullseye painted on his back and it will be fun to play "catch the wolf". Maybe the most interesting new is a potential new Hero... my money is on Dehaka but Vol'jin is not out of the question.
