Ragnaros Spotlight: From WoW to Heroes of the Storm
Ragnaros
debuts as a playable hero in Heroes of the Storm today so we thought we'd give you a little insight into his character from World of Warcraft!
Ragnaros
was the final boss of Molten Core, and then made a reappearance as the final boss of Firelands. He also made a reappearance for the
10th Anniversary Event
.
We were also sent a tasty box of
Ragnar-O's
from the Heroes of the Storm team; as cereal jokes about Ragnaros are some of the most highly-upvoted comments on Wowhead, we thought our community would appreciate the pictures.
BlizzCon 2015 - Heroes of the Storm Battlegrounds Panel
Battleground Goals
There are a couple of core goals for battlegrounds in Heroes of the Storm. A battleground must eventually end and create conflict.
On battlegrounds, they want to make sure that there are objectives to fight over and if you succeed, you get a good reward.
For example, on Sky Temple, the large size of the map allows many skirmishes because of the time transitioning between lanes. The objective of Skye Temple causes large fights.
