Earth angel, earth angel, please heal meeeeee.
Blizzard has revealed the newest character for its multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA), Heroes of the Storm. It’s the Archangel Auriel from the Diablo universe. She’s a support character, meaning that she works best when used to heal and help other heroes. Heroes of the Storm is an important part of Blizzard’s stable, especially as it tries to establish a presence in the booming esports market. Research firm SuperData expects the esports market to reach $1.23 billion by 2019. MOBAs like League of Legends and Dota 2 are some of the most popular esports. Blizzard, however, does not release numbers for Heroes of the Storm, so we don’t know how it competes with those top-tier mobas.
