In just a few hours, Rexxar will be announced officially, as well as a new battleground.
EDIT: Rexxar has officially be announced and you can find higher quality images here.
This reddit thread just an hour ago posted what looks like the first ever photos of Rexxar and hints at the newest Battleground, Infernal Shrines. This explains the teaser Blizzard posted just days ago.
Though this info will surely be expanded in greater detail during the Heroes of the Storm stream, people live at the event are able to play him and have reported the following abilities and details regarding his playstyle:
- Rexxar is accompanied by Misha. It is unclear whether or not the bear is under full control similar to the Lost Vikings, but it will be a huge part of Rexxar's gameplay.
- Rexxar is the first Ranged warrior to be included in the game. I can only assume his base attack is indeed ranged.
- His two heroics are a Beastial Wrath that sends Misha into a frenzy and a Stampede summon (which is a throwback to his Warcraft 3 incarnation.
- His Q ability is a thrown axe skill shot, while his W makes Misha charge forward. His E ability is defensive and heals Misha and Rexxar, while his D allows him to call back Misha.
Reddit user "Insanebrood" also tells of info about the new Monk hero who's name is confirmed to be Kharazim. After only a quick games, they had this to report back on his abilities:
- His Q is a fast teleport to enemy or friendly player. When talented it can heal the target.
- His W is a targettable Heal.
- His E ability is a fast 3 hit combo.
- His first Heoric is indeed the predicted 7-sided strike while his second heroic his a massive heal with an still unknown name.
We will be reporting on more info as it arises.
