I'm surprised they are still making some changes to ARAM. It's good to see at least they are still working on balance in this game, although I haven't played HotS in a long time.

      Blizzard is celebrating ten years of Heroes of the Storm by making all Heroes free-to-play until June 15 and releasing a special Gear Head Thrall skin!
      On top of that, players who log in between now and June 15 will receive two brand-new portraits, as shown below.
      (Source)
      Ten years ago, the Nexus opened a realm between realms…where anything is possible. Over the years, you have braved this tumultuous universe, commanding some of the most legendary Heroes from across Azeroth, Sanctuary, the Koprulu sector, and future Earth. 

      It’s this community that has made Heroes of the Storm so special, and we’re thrilled to celebrate this milestone alongside you. From now until the next patch on June 15, all Heroes will be free! Plus, everyone who logs in during this time will receive two brand-new portraits to showcase their time battling across the Nexus. Check out the patch notes for full details!

      We’re also excited to release a never-before-seen skin into the shop! In honor of Heroes of the Storm’s 10th anniversary, as well as Warcraft’s 30th, what better Hero skin to release from the vault than the one and only Thrall? Gear Head Thrall is now available through the in-game shop for 1500 Gems. And keep your eyes peeled—the Classic Games team is combing through the archives, searching for unreleased skins that would need some finishing touches for release, possibly bringing us more in the future.

      We know Heroes of the Storm means a lot to so many of you, and we cannot thank you enough for the passion you continue to show this game after an entire decade. From the Classic Games team and all of Blizzard, thank you!
      We’ll see you in the Nexus.
