A new patch was released today for Heroes of the Storm, and a lot of changes have come with it. First off, in case you missed it, Lt. Morales is now in the game. Based off of StarCraft's Medic, she lives up to the billing. Here is her full ability list:

Trait

  • Caduceus Reactor
    • Regenerate 3% of your maximum Health per second after not taking any damage for 4 seconds.

Basic Abilities

  • Healing Beam (Q)
    • Heal an ally for 20 Health per second as long as they are in range. Reactivate to switch targets, or activate your Trait to cancel channeling.
  • Safeguard (W)
    • Grant target ally Resistant, reducing damage taken by 25% for 3 seconds.
  • Displacement Grenade (E)
    • Fire a grenade that explodes on the first enemy hit, dealing damage, and knocking enemies away.

Heroic Abilities

  • Stim Drone (R)
    • Grant an allied Hero 75% Attack Speed and 25% Movement Speed for 10 seconds.
  • Medivac Dropship (R)
    • Target a location for a Medivac transport. For up to 10 seconds before takeoff, allies can right-click to enter the Medivac.

 

Some warriors received a bit of love in the attempt to return them to prominence at the highest levels. Heroes such as Diablo, Chen and Stitches got some updates, in the hopes they'll no longer be bottom-tier Warriors.

Oh, and did I mention Zeratul nerfs?

  • Basic Attack damage reduced from 47 (+13 per level) to 47 (+12 per level)
  • Blink (E)
    • Wormhole (Talent)
      • Blink reactivation time reduced from 3 to 2 seconds
  • Void Prison (R)
    • Casting range reduced by 50%

Yup. Zeratul nerfs. Other than that, there have been a ton of bug fixes, art and UI updates, and more. Check out the full list of changes right here.
