Heroes of the Storm - A Player's First Impressions

Greetings dear MOBA fans!

Yesterday, the third of February 2015, I got home from a busy day at work. As usual my first job was to see what useless crap people posted on Facebook and look at my e-mail. I opened my e-mail and what do you think I saw?

“Blizzard” finally granted me access to their “Heroes of the Storm” closed beta. I was waiting for that moment since the beginning of the game’s test period release a few months ago.

Alas, I got it now and I am very happy about it. Thanks Oba… I mean Blizzard.

I had a few hours left before bedtime and I decided to try this innovative game out. I do play the two best world renowned MOBAs - DotA and LoL but I did not want to expect anything from HOTS.

So the game is installed and I was ready to kick some butt.

Heroes of The Storm: What to Expect

A long expected game is closer to its release. The game known as Blizzard DOTA, later Blizzard all-stars, is gaining more popularity with each day. We've seen a small gameplay preview on BlizzCon, we've read and watched many people talking about it, how it's different from other games, the style and everything known about it. You can even sign up for the public Beta test. But will Heroes of The Storm be worth it?

The Differences

Right now there are two outstanding MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) games out there - League of Legends and Dota 2. LoL has a huge fandom and is the most played online PC game in the World right now. Dota 2 is newer, but is quickly gaining more and more players. It's only logical to compare Heroes of the storm with those two giants.
