[Icpie]

Warrior and Warlock tabs are reversed

[Youarefired]

I was excited for Heroes of the Storm until I saw the game play. I was expecting Super Smash Bros style. Now THAT would of been exciting.

[Haribol]

Where is Zangarmarsh??? my lakes are gone

[TrollShaman]

I really can't wait to try out the new talents.

...even if some of them are glaringly OP (e.g Passive Savage Roar)

[Goremonger]

I wanna see the contests

[Simca]

Warrior and Warlock tabs are reversed

Oops, thanks.

May need to force refresh the page, but it should be fixed now.

[ColbaneX]

Talents are amazing!

[Balir]

Blizzard is going to make so much money with Heroes of the storm, hearthstone (pack buying?) and people returning to wow, the US government should ask them for a loan.

The launch trailer DID NOT do all the changes and tweaks justice what so ever.

[Omians]

seeing the damage on the level 100 talents i wonder how much the squish will be, as well im liking the death knight ones, ill tank defile on my tank i think

[CaptainArlong]

So artwork from 1996 from the Warcraft 2 manual counts as "concept art"? Also see some "concept art" from the Burning Crusade (Velen) and the comic book series (the other Velen).

[Mazzic518]

I personally cannot wait!

[Wheezing]

Hunter petless talent woo!!

[Soeroah]

Demonic Servitude: I might main my warlock.

[Tenjen]

is that a murloc diablo?! ALL IS LOST.

Also theres a version of Uthor is starcraft armor

[grexly75]

Found this trailer not sure it is on here but this one shows the updated character models.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYueIdI_2L0 from what can see we have of course the Dwarf and Orc models and there are a couple of scenes of what look like the new Draenei models.. And more it looks like this could be very cool and the garrisons are pretty big to boot..

Edit my bad there thought I had the right link didn't look to see it was the wrong one all fixed now..

[Achaman]

Demonic Servitude

Passive
You are now able to maintain your control over even greater demons indefinitely, allowing you to summon Doomguards and Infernals as permanent pets.

i cannot wait!

[blacklamb]

I really can't wait to try out the new talents.

...even if some of them are glaringly OP (e.g Passive Savage Roar)

All Savage Roar does is make Feral damage equal to everyone elses, so much so that the glyph is mandatory. Unless the spell is buffed, this is simply yet another mandatory talent we have to take, and instead of a cool new spell, its a QoL change.

[n0ideabr0]

Squish will prob. be like it was damage in TBC (awesome!) finally normal numbers,also petless hunter yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and that last rogue talent looks amazing.

- - - Updated - - -

Also cant wait to play as Illidan and Arthas!

[Azrile]

All Savage Roar does is make Feral damage equal to everyone elses, so much so that the glyph is mandatory. Unless the spell is buffed, this is simply yet another mandatory talent we have to take, and instead of a cool new spell, its a QoL change.

Basically this. This frees up a glyph slot and takes away a button press a few times a minute.. but not much else.
