September 15th - September 21st
Li Li
ETC
Arthas
Sonya
Tychus
Nazeebo (level 12)
Butcher (level 15)
Yes he does. His design shows that he was one of the first heroes. He's a bit clunky and slow.
That said, once again disappointed in the free rotation for a 3rd week in a row. I own most of those heroes. Only ones I down own are Tychus, Sonya and Arthas. Tychus is fine, though I don't enjoy him. Sonya, while better after the patch, is still not one of the better warriors. And I still think Arthas feels bad compared to the newer warriors.
He's the only warrior in the game who has no ability to start or escape a teamfight. All of the other warriors have some way or another to charge into battle, yank opponents to them, or otherwise leap/dig away, pop a shield that practically makes oneself immortal and waltz out, or ghost away. In comparison, the Lich King simply gets a small AoE slow that only works at melee range (with less than half the heroes in the game being melee) as his sole method of "escape", let alone initiation.
Arthas will be nice to try out this week.
He actually works quite well but requires (ideally) a dual tank setup.
Unfortunately I already own all the other heroes :P
Was actually thinking of buying him this week since I am sitting on 23k gold and got plenty of time to farm for the doubloon xD
Great Week; I own none of these heroes. Arthas is already at Level 4 so that is a quick 500G. Nazeebo and Li Li are also at Level 3 and fun to play. Sonya and Bucther are the extras for the week.
Will also be nice to try out Arthas after along time a he was one of the first few heroes I tried QM (during beta) with and even won a few games.
I'm at almost 11k gold and waiting to get Rexxar next week.
Butcher is free again? Guess that means we can expect another whine thread about him.
It's the first week in a while where I get more than 1 hero I didn't own yet, I'll definitly have some fun with Arthas and Sonya.
Feels like we just had a Sonya free week pretty recently, glad to have another so soon
Looking forward to playing some games with Arthas and Nazeebo as well
September 22nd - September 28th
Raynor
Muradin
Tyrael
Thrall
Tyrande
Gazlowe (level 12)
Kharazim (level 15)
Extra notes: This is Kharazim's first free week. With great power comes great responsibility!
Great.. A bunch of clueless Gazlowe's this week then
Cool. I get to try Kharazim.

Lol I do have the specialist daily atm so I'll use it to clear it. But free Tyrael is the highlight for me. Almost at Level 5 and I am ready to do some QMs with him. I May try Kharazim for the variety. Already own Thrall though.
Edit: just remembered, Rexxar should be at 10K gold so I have to buy him too ^^ .
A week of Kharazim/Tyrande and Thrall then.
Ah heck,I'll go try Gaz aswell.
This weeks sales:
Weekly Sale: September 22-29
Chen -- $4.99 USD
Warmaster Chen Skin -- $3.74 USD
Blood Elf Tyrande -- $4.99 USD
*Malfurion -- $1.99 USD
*Jaina -- $4.99 USD
*Tyrande -- $4.24 USD
*Muradin -- $1.99 USD
*Zagara -- $4.24 USD
Don't bother buying Muradin; he's apart of the $5 starter bundle so it isn't worth it to get him separately. He also costs on 2000 gold so you can buy him in about 5-6 quests, or by leveling up 4 free heroes to 5.
The Warmaster Chen skin looks badass. I'd buy it if I played Chen, but as it stands I have more skins for heroes than I actually use.
Still no 10K Rexxar :l.
As for bundles, starter bundle is decent value, basically 7 day stimpack + 3 basic heroes for the cost of the 7 day stimpack. I am considering getting it once I hit 7 heroes and have a weekend to level up heroes and account.
