I'm worried about that too, especially because there has already been confusion in drafts and matches between certain skins/ faces.


I regularly confuse Greymane and Uther's portraits. I almost drafted a Tassadar into an Uther once by mistake .

If I remember correctly, an Illidan skin looks just like Malfurion, and it's very easy to mix up some Muradin/ Falsad/ Uther skins too.

Butcher's fel green furnace blast (not sure if normal skin but a different color, of course) confused me at first. I get many of the archers mixed up sometimes--some of the Tyrande/Valla/Sylvanas skins. Valla's new skin is very Miss Fortune, cleavage and all. It appears the unstoppable description for Bladestorm is also literally describing the ability, as Jaina's slow has no effect.

Technically they have 1/4th of a Warrior considering Rexxar is half orc, and Rexxar is only half of a hero.


Well played, sir.

Thank god I'm not the only one. Unfortunately, however, I once did not "almost" draft a supporter into an Uther, but I really did.

Why can't they just show the standard skins during the draft? Ingame skins can be confusing, because you'll most likely still see which hero it is, but during the draft?
Especially since it is completely useless to have the skins in the draft; or at least I see no reason.

Rexxar is 75% of a hero. The rest is far beyond my maths skill, do what you like with this information. ^^

About draft confusion, we almost drafted no warrior into our Falstad (who looked like Muradin to us). Happened 2 times.
Diablo 's Apocalypse with angelic skin is blue, so "hey a friendly blue zone on the ground, let's step there" is very confusing too.
Angelic Valla + Tyrael + Auriel = who the fuck did I just saw ?

I really like sexy cowgirl Valla. I might sound dumb but I like sexy skins. :-) Too bad I don't play her.

Having the illusion non controllable is a bad move (but necessary for hots) imo.

I've got to say that Blizzard is betting much better at making more interesting heroes with higher skill caps. The skins also look great imo (even KT's). And for those of you getting heroes confused, all you have to do is read. The name is there.

Not even trying to be mean, but why can't you just read the heroes name if you're not sure? At least when the portrait appears next to the name in the lobby you get used to identifying that particular hero skin so you're not deceived in game.

Unless they've changed something, pre-picked heroes don't have their real names appear until they're actually selected afaik.

I prefer Zeratul for such things. Vikings and Warp blades don't mix.
Haven't seen him for ages though.
