Heroes of the Storm has announced that, to celebrate the game's 10th anniversary, all heroes will be free for all players until June 15, there's one new skin, and if you login, you'll get a few little bonuses to boot. It's been five years since HotS got a new hero, and three years since Blizzard officially put the game into "maintenance mode", but as we recently noted it's looking awfully spry for what some call a "dead game."
That's probably because, even if it never turned out to be the LoL/Dota 2 competitor that Blizzard was hoping for, it has since launch been a brilliant game, and the only MOBA I've ever really loved. Whatever that Blizzard magic is, HotS has it in spades: the match length is perfect, almost every game seems to produce a genuine push-and-pull between both teams, and even basic elements like fighting mobs still feels exciting.
