Heroes of the Storm

Anyone playing this? Its been out for a few years but its getting a resurgence because of the link with Overwatch heroes being released. Seen some gameplay and it looks pretty good, like league of legends.

 

Really want to play it just to get the Police D.Va skin but tbh it would be good to have a PC game to play as i haven't PC gamed in years.

Great game. It's league of legends based on map objectives and gameplay. No items and no gold. I play it regularly.

Do you have to unlock characters or is it similar to Overwatch so you can play any character you want?

[The3rdWalker 1,263]

You pick a bundle when you first start that unlocks about 20 character but no, it's not like Overwatch and you have to earn in game gold to unlock characters. Similar to League of Legends model for that.

Ah, okay. Downloading this on to my laptop but if I play, it'll be wired otherwise it won't be worth it.

Well it really depends what your play style is in a MOBA.

 

If you are going by pure value? Mega Bundle Values in descending order

Gold
Assassin: 145000
Tank: 141000
Support: 131000
Flex: 123000

Shards
Assassin: 18200
Tank: 17000
Support: 15200
Flex: 14000

 

Description of Mega Bundles

Assassin

The Assassin Mega Bundle is hyper-focused on Heroes who dish out destruction wherever they go. Get in your opponents' faces as a sustained auto-attacker, nuke enemies from the back line, or roam the battlefield to gank unsuspecting foes.

 

Flex

If you’re eager to fill gaps in your team comp, or are brand new to MOBAs, consider picking up this bundle to gain experience with a wide variety of roles and playstyles. Includes Warrior, Specialist, Support, and Assassin Heroes.

 

Support & Specialists

Play-makers in Heroes of the Storm come in many forms. The Support & Specialist bundle is all about keeping your team in fighting shape, turning the tide of battle, and providing the flexibility and strategic tools to conquer any obstacle.

 

Tanks & Bruisers

This bundle is brimming with Heroes who have no problem getting up close and personal with their foes. Create opportunities to pick off an enemy, peel threats away from your teammates, and lead from the front with the Tanks & Bruisers bundle.

 

I went with assassins because I generally play tanks and bulky characters, for once I wanted to be a carry or do some serious killing. Flex is usually what to recommend as it has a bit of every type.

I got the assassin bundle, so I'd suggest another one for diversity.
