    It's really a disappointment that Blizzard sort of placed Heroes of the Storm on the back burner. The concept behind it was truly fantastic, bringing together these beloved characters from the Blizzard universe. Sadly, it seems that the game doesn't rake in the profits for Blizzard quite like Diablo Immortal does, which is why it's no longer receiving updates.

    Why bother spending any time or money, no one plays this. While waiting 45mins+ in que for a "quickmatch" I made an entire account just to write this and tell you why blizzard sucks. It sucks. Matchmaking is trash and you will spend more time waiting in line than actually playing the game.

    Used to have a lot of hype around this game when it first came out. Years gone by, not a single significant change to the game. Game is really easy and very little room for competitiveness. Also the devs/blizz probably gave up on this game.

    Best moba out there! Lots of unseen mechanics added to the genre and you play with loved characters from blizz universe. Fast paced gameplay with a lots of teamfighting and not very long matches.

    The best and most fun MOBA out there. It's sad that it's no longer being supported

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's extremely rare I'll rate a game this low but as a Moba player I feel a true rating and review for this is needed. It's a League of Legends/Dota knock off with all Blizzard heroes. Which wouldn't be bad except it's basically babies first Moba. No strategy for building required, no counter building, no items for purchase and no leveling abilities (talents unlock at certain levels that add effects to skills). Then to top it off you get 1 free character, and maybe a second from a loot chest after the tutorial, meaning you can only play a small portion of the roles. There's no free weekly/monthly rotation of characters, there's no free character from each class like other Moba games. If you want an easy game where you have 0 thinking and pay to get everything this is for you.… Expand

    The only moba game on the market that I really enjoyed. I liked the familiar heroes and their catchphrases. Unfortunately, the matchmaking is the worst. QM is practically unplayable for some heroes and pretty unfair in team composition. Ranked play was the biggest problem what ruined this game.

    I like the gameplay beyond other MOBA but sadly Blizzard abandoned it so I think it's better keeping it in good memories than playing the same patch without any new contents for years.

    Despite the fact that it is original with well-designed characters and maps, matchmaking and the social system with reports is as terrible as possible. Of the many multiplayer games played, this is the worst game because of its huge lack of sociality. The developers never wanted people to play it

    This definitely was the best MOBA. But sadly they canceled the game. My biggest hope in gaming would be that Blizzard is focusing on this game again, and maybe even a console version.

    But rating the game, how it was back in 2015-2016. Then it was Legend and a clear 10/10. I love that the game is focusing on Team play, so all the team members have shared XP pools.

    Even after thousands of hours of gameplay, it is still amazing to play. Even though patches and content are rare now, the game is in a great state and is a ton of fun.

    This is easily one of the best MOBAs I've ever played. It's not too complicated, visually pleasing, and the various characters can be unlocked just by playing the game.

    Yet another abandoned game by Blizzard, no major updates for 4+ years, a very toxic community, and the worst league system I've ever seen.

    Edit: while playing unranked our tead did not know what to pick and therefore we were knocked out of the picking phase back to menu and got banned for 1 game from unranked/ranked - had to win 1 game of QM, but after 2 matches of **** quick match provides, we uninstalled. Nova/deathwing/genji/tracer every game. Why can't heroes like this just be deleted? **** all of you guys who main these heroes

    On the other hand, quick match was and still is the biggest flaw of the game where you get idiotic compositions. You either stomp or get stomped. Sounds like fun, eh? Yet I am not suprised because most of players want to carry and play assassins. Nobody cares about a good team comp on QM. Reconnecting system is bad too. If you lost connection, you may just wait until the match is over because you will not rejoin in time. Ranked is far from ideal too, people are clueless about positioning or draft, even in diamond/master. Trollpicks such as nova/gazlowe/murky are a common thing    … Expand

    Blizzard could take instalockers, afk players, and people picking multiple roles more seriously since matchmaking is the core handicap in this game.
    My account is banned for chat violation and you know what I've been through if you played this game. Yes I got really mad sometimes because of the toxic profile you get matched with.

    If you can put up with cancer players go for it and download. Terrible matchmaking and drafting mechanism only awards bad players and pushes dedicated good gamers out of this space.

    I have wasted my years to play with troll players that pick heroes that can be easily countered or the same roles already picked by the other teammates. Matchmaking system is just terrible. No cooperation, no communicaion, no help, players that don't know what they do etc. This game has a lot to go though but its already dead anyways.    … Expand

    If you are not spending real money they will nerf you. Your damage will register but it will not effect other players as much. They will also team you up with other nerfed players. This will improve the morale of money spending players and cause them to spend more money. Don't be a victim to their money sucking agenda.

    Heroes of the Storm is an exceptional game that’s thrown the cat amongst the pigeons in this rigid genre.

    In Heroes of the Storm you play as one of Blizzard's iconic characters from Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo. At first glance the game looks like a typical 5 vs 5 MOBA, but there are changes that differentiate it from its competitors. The matches are shorter, items have been replaced with talents and all maps have different side objectives. Overall, the changes have made the game more intense and varied. The main thing that I have issues with is the payment model. At first it seems fair and reasonable, but after a while you realize that you have to spend tons of money if you want to unlock all the characters or play the game for a long time. [Sept 2015]
