Every week, Max "Bigg" Hoskin answers your Heroes of the Storm questions. This week? Thoughts on Mal'ganis

Dear Bigg,

What are your thoughts on Mal'ganis' kit and do you think he'll be a capable solo "tank" ?

-Icover

I think Mal'ganis lacks CC and engage that most tanks need to be successful. He will more likely be a solo laner like Yrel, Malthael or Dehaka. He deals decent damage and sustains himself well, two important things for a solo laner if they lack strong CC. He does have a small stun on his third Q which can cancel dashes and certain abilities just like a fully charged Yrel W. Overall, I'm concerned at the cast times on his heroic abilities as I feel that they will get cancelled most of the time. We'll just have to wait and see if he fits into the current meta but if I had to guess, I would say he could be a strong disruptive solo laner/offtank against teams with weaker sustained damage.
