A major patch went live today, including the release of the newest hero to join the Nexus - Gul'Dan. Blizzard released a cinematic trailer to accompany the newest hero.

Gul'Dan, Betrayer of the Orcs, joined the Nexus today and in typical Blizzard fashion his cinematic trailer set the tone for the new hero.

The trailer captures the terrifying nature of Gul'Dan as he wreaks havoc on the Nexus. His sinister nature is showcased as he attempts to become the most powerful hero in Heroes of the Storm.

Gul'Dan is the newest ranged assassin and brings some interesting new mechanics to the table. He doesn't regenerate mana naturally, and instead he uses his talent to sacrifice health for mana. He is a refreshing twist on ranged assassins and it will be interesting to see how he impacts the game.
