Heroes of the Storm PTR 2.52: CraftWars

Written by Medievaldragon on August 31, 2020. Posted in Heroes of the Storm

The latest Heroes of the Storm PTR 2.52 introduces the new CraftWars themed skins, mounts, and two hero reworks.

NEW SKINS: CraftWars

Mei got a Death Knight skin and Gazlowe an SCV skin.

HEROES REWORK: D.Va + Gazlowe

D.Va’s rework features tons of new tools and a redistribution of power to help her fill more of a traditional bruiser role while still retaining some of her “support” essence.

Gazlowe’s rework is designed to fully embrace him as a formidable bruiser to specialize in disruption and zone control as a front-line member of his team.

5 Year Anniversary

The CraftWars event marks the 5 Years Anniversary of Heroes of the Storm. The music played in the background at the lobby represents World of Warcraft and Classic StarCraft music themes — which means that the CraftWars skins theme is a battle between Warcraft and StarCraft.
