I'd say it will probably exceed HoN in popularity. But Dota 2 and LoL? We'll see. Still a bit sceptical tbh.

I would have trusted the Blizzard of old to successfully compete with LoL and Dota 2 but after Diablo 3 this faith is gone ...

In the end everyone will call It Blizzard dota, so It doesn't make any difference

Can't wait to get my hands on this. Blizzard's MO is to take a genre that already exists, and make the best game ever for it.

RPG? Here's Diablo
RTS? Here's Warcraft AND Starcraft.
MMO? Here's WoW
CCG? Hearthstone is already massively popular (2-3x daily viewers of SC2 btw )


This will be a well-thought out, smooth, engaging game. You can feel the engine for it in the HotS campaign's solo missions - the stutter-stepping and casting animations for Kerrigan are smooth as glass. For an example, pick up one of those missions and just pretend you're laning - it works really well.

I think, the main difference from standard Dota/Lol will be 3 sides instead of two.

I think, the main difference from standard Dota/LoL will be that you gather apples and oranges to get the lemon and then you can procceed to win the game!

It will be as generic as their last titles were. Tho they will have at least decent success with it i guess.

Dota2 gets the even better 6.79 update that'll make it even better as esport to watch.

Blizz is late once again with everything.
Nobody literally would care about another MOBA that will just start to balance and go 1.0.
Think about how many years it took for Dota to develop what it is today, and even though LoL ripped Dota pretty much, it still took them time to balance their pay2win fest.

Anyway as many people here, 1-2 tries can be given to the new Blizz-waste-of-time-and-money but not many (not at all imo) people will play it.

How exactly is LoL pay2win? Seriously; what advantages can you buy that give you an edge in competitive (or ranked) LoL play? I can't think of anything.

Runes and Champs. Obviously once you played enough than that advantage is lessened but it takes a huge amount of time to actually get to that level without putting in money

Heroes of the Storm will obviously be a moba with units from all Blizzard games! (ie. Super Smash Bros meets DotA)

I hope this game brings new blood back to SC2, although my initial reaction, judging solely from the name, is that it won't be as popular as it could be. A name has a bigger impact than most people think.

Dota fanboys are SO adorable. It's worse than diehard BW-only fanboys.

You can't even buy runes with real money.

Well there are advantages, if you wanna have a decent championpool at lvl 30, you have to buy them, there is no way you can do it with ip alone (you need runes AND runepages too).
I wouldnt call it pay2win, but dota2's system is far superior.

Back in the days we called it hack and slash ;P RPG was rather reserved for Baldur's gate etc.
My wrist really started to flare up. My colossi number started to pile up and with the last of my concentration I prepared for a win.
