The last one was quite a Blizzard heavy week, I should say, since I continued to play Hearthstone, and I also tried Heroes of the Storm. I have to admit that I didn't hold out too much hope after I had tried LOL, and didn't like it. I know the two games have their differences, but both of them are MOBA games, while I'm more like an RPG person. But guess what! I really like it!
I was told by some who have been playing LOL for quite some time by now, that Heroes of the Storm is easier to play, it doesn't have that much strategy going on and things like that. I evidently can't verify this statement, as I don't know too much about Heroes of the Storm yet, and even less about LOL, but that can be a reason why I enjoy this game more. Maybe I'm just too noob for LOL. xD It's far from impossible. :D

| RANGED ASSASSIN - JAINA |
What can also be a problem for me is that I tend to stick with only one character that I like, while in MOBA games it's better to have a variety of choices that you know well and can play with on a higher level. So I've made a decision to try out more characters this time, and so far I'm mostly doing well, but it was kind of hard to start this trend for first. Actually I have a little story about this. :D

| DWARF WARRIOR - MURADIN |
So one of my daily quests was to play with a warrior, and man, I'm no warrior type person in MOBAs. And also I've never played with a dwarf character before (not in RPGs, not in MOBAs, not anywhere since I don't like them too much - it's a weird bonding with my character thing), but last week I could only choose Muradin as a warrior, so I did, as I wanted my quest done. Yes, I'm OCD about quests, and I'm also a gold hoarder. xD
I played some matches in a party with my boyfriend, and I started to feel the thrill and raw force of being a melee warrior character, so I was running around smashing things, and I enjoyed it. :D
Once we were kind of at the end of the game, and I started to hit the enemy's core when I'd already lost half of my hp, so my boyfriend said: "Careful, honey, you're not indestructible!"
But I was like: "YES I AM!!!" On a majestic, deep, slightly hoarse voice of course, in full berserker mode.
Just for the record I didn't die, we had finished the game before that could happen. :D

| RANGED ASSASSIN - JAINA |
Jumping back to an average game-play, my favorite character is clearly Jaina so far. I've always loved assassin styles the most, so it really is no surprise after all.
There is an other thing that I also love about Heroes of the Storm, that isn't the most important, and maybe a little bit girly, but it's also part of my game experience, so here we go. :D I really like that the armors or "skins" are so detailed and beautiful. Nowhere near practical, but in a fantasy game I find it more important to look good, as you don't actually have to go out, and fight or run in these things. :D I'm kind of looking forward to try out Tyrande or Sylvanas just because of their outfits. xD
This is it about Heroes of the Storm in a nutshell, just to share my first impressions. :)
