Whittling down the Warcraft III roster
Blizzard keeps pumping out combatants for Heroes of the Storm, and the vast majority of them have been pretty great additions to the game. I have no doubt that Maiev Shadowsong will be included in that category, whenever the newly announced hero ends up being released (all signs point to a PTR next week).
Maiev’s kit will probably be similar to the “Warden” archetype fromWarcraft III, which includes light invisibility, the area-of-effect fan of knives, blinking, ranged poison damage, and multiple shadow clones. We’ll know more once her spotlight debuts later today. As a refresher, she’s still relevant in the overall universe, having just appeared inWoW‘sLegionexpansion.
So breaking down what we need so that the originalWarcraft IIIroster (including the tavern from the expansion) is complete — Naga Sea Witch, Pit Lord, Tauren Chieftan (E.T.C. isn’t quite the same), Dread Lord, Shadow Hunter, and Goblin Alchemist.
