In der Nacht von gestern auf heute haben die an Heroes of the Storm mitarbeitenden Entwickler von Blizzard Entertainment überraschenderweise ein zuvor nicht angekündigten neues Balance Update auf die Liveserver der verschiedenen Spielregionen aufgespielt, welches selbstverständlich auch dieses Mal wieder von offiziellen Patchnotes auf der Communityseite dieses Titels begleitet wurde. Dieser informativen Übersicht zufolge beinhaltete dieser neue Patch neben einigen notwendigen Fehlerbehebungen auch noch einen von vielen Spielern geforderten Nerf an Mal’Ganis, viele kleinere Anpassungen an ausgewählten Unterstützern und recht ausgewogen ausfallende Veränderungen an einer Reihe von anderen Charakteren. Wer jetzt gerne mehr über die Auswirkungen dieses neuen Patches erfahren möchte, der sollte sich die folgenden Patchnotes des Entwicklerteams möglichst aufmerksam durchlesen.
