Valeera Spotlight - Heroes of the Storm

For a time, the gladiator Valeera Sanguinar served dutifully as one of Varian Wrynn’s personal bodyguards. Now, her shadowy skills find her a natural fit within the secretive rogue order, the Uncrowned, in their fight against the Legion. A master of stealth combat, who is as quick as her daggers are deadly, Valeera is prepared to strike at the Nexus from the shadows as our newest melee assassin.

[@olestuga]

2:19 "Ambush is Valeera's signature combat opener, stabbing an unsuspecting enemy with her daggers for HEAVY DAMAGE." *Scratches Kael'thas*

[@TotallyNotChris_]

We need Broll bearmantle to be the next multiclass like Bear form = Tank Cat form = Melee burst Moonkin = ranged sustain dps Perfect for multiclass and it also gives Valeera a friend besides Varian

[@Alexgaby15Channel]

Bear Tank, Cat Melee, Moonkin Ranged, Night Elf Heal, Stag Form Special Mount (like Diablo or Zagara, not like Rehgar), Crow Form while Hearthing

[@wersus9103]

When they add Broll, he will be Bear From only, because lorewise, all other ancients abandoned him expect bear, so it wouldn't make sense to make him shapeshift to other animals. I often see people that want Broll to be shapeshifter but its just not going to happen.

[@CallMeNoa]

Broll got his other forms back eventually actually. Heck, you see him as a cheetah in the beginning of this very video.

[@alexzlotea7231]

Alexgaby15 We're no longer Multi-class boys, it's All-class now.

[@swadow1497]

TotallyNotChris i would say just Bear and cat balancing for 3 is Hard and doesnt even act as logical since feral was Bear and cat and moonkin is a Caster=totally different

[@schippes24]

so i heard you like assassins. so i put an assassin in game that is good at killing assassin while they are assassinating. assassinception

[@ScorchHellfire]

Old memes are old.

[@jh5133]

There was an attempt

[@CesarDaSalad]

2:46 Tracer got wrecked so hard she had to fly off to her home planet.

[@anotherfandom]

This was a great video, I loved the way it highlighted the utility behind her kit. Hopefully she ends up playing as described.

[@muhammadmohsen8732]

Peter Matre I hope she ends up balanced I don't want my main to get banned everytime

[@exile7393]

Sylvanas: "Sinu a'manore." Valeera: "Anu belore dela'na."

[@Stroivan]

THAT DANCE IS MAJESTIC!

[@rudycampos976]

The little backstory section at the beginning was pretty cool.

[@AlgaInventory]

Nice new Spotlight layout, love it! Also, I am so looking forward for Valeera! Been waiting for her for SOO long! Love it!

[@CallMeNoa]

We got Varian, Valeera, and Rehgar. Just need Broll to round out the team!

[@rheunark3985]

I like the way they redid how the spotlights look, granting more information than before, besides the added intro at the start.

[@valeclaw1697]

Broll next and well be fine in the Warcraft category for now.

[@guidovini1212]

3edgy5me no. Kel'thuzad

[@valeclaw1697]

Vinicius G we have Xul, no need to rush out s necromancer. We need another druid though because they'd be a genuine shapeshifter hero

[@guidovini1212]

Xul sucks... Kel'thuzad is better

[@thinhvo3893]

I want my goddamn Tosh from SC

[@sumerian88]

Broll will wait.

[@Avaelon]

+Heroes of the Storm I think it will be good idea if you create a next map for Heroes of the Storm from World of Warcraft and it will be a style Horde vs Alliance Minions will be knights and Orcs and of course buildings will be similarly like in Warcraft 3 what do you think Blizzard? i think it is a good idea

[@avisael9869]

DarkShadowCZ That is an awesome idea!!!!!!

[@Avaelon]

+Avisael Gonzalez I think so :)

[@MichelleAOV]

Its on now

[@jh5133]

Alterac Pass

[@horner385]

Brilliant mode to add a rogue from an MMORPG into a MOBA great job Blizz who came with the idea needs a medal

[@dirtyxmind]

I gonna admit that I hated when she was announced, just because is another assassin, but she clearly is the most fun to use between the last two. Blizzard, in hots we need more supports, please.

[@LifeofEbb]

I feel like the way they specifically mentioned Broll is a possibility that he might be a sort of druid tank

[@YaNoridel]

2:15 - typical Teammate(Naz) in every match.

[@soroosha]

loool too real

[@arminravanbod9828]

I can't stop laughing! ;-D

[@Ersb99]

I like this kind of intros

[@DrAnimePhD]

I'm so happy my waifu is now in. I love Valeera so much.

[@ethanglaeser9239]

I like the new spotlight video format.

[@HighordStarkiller]

Cool new Spotlight video guys Awesome although you might have to consider in the future show her talents or something

[@omeryazc3073]

Lord Starkiller showing talents is not appropriate i think, i would take time. Spotligths are excellent this in my opinion

[@1wing1]

talents are subject to change in the future and would make the video outdated

[@HighordStarkiller]

1wing1 Good point

[@RamArt9091]

I feel Zeratul is slowing becoming obsolete.

[@alexzlotea7231]

With VP and the most reliable burst of any Assassin? lol

[@Wolvenwargmusic]

Can't VP or burst when you're silenced bruh.

[@PedoBearNomsLoli]

+Arturo Ramírez Dude, nothing can really beat VP's utility, which used to be very groundbreaking before they nerfed it. And Zera has perma stealth and a a very good ranged blink. Besides.... I feel bad for Nova, more than Zera. She on the other hand becomes even more obsolete than ever before. As if she hasn't had enough competition from Zera, Li Ming, or Samuro(Launch) already...

[@ScarletCanon]

This will only end in tears and angry OP arguments

[@DrToe]

Good video, still waiting for Cloaken to branch out to do bed time stories with that slick voice of his

[@headnut57]

this looks really nice, well i hate stealth heroes and she probably wont be an exception, but she seems really well made and fun to play !

[@NamiHeartilly]

Maraad or Velen, please. We need a draenei in the Nexus.

[@OnlyDeathIsEternal]

Yrel.

[@elyssium_]

Akama.

[@erikmuller5654]

Nobundo.

[@kds6992]

and she is in hots now.

[@pojojo1]

I like that the assassination spec rogue in wow only uses abilities that are Combat/outlaw spec abilities in wow.

[@zydian_]

tested her on ptr, she plays and feels like a rogue from the warcraft universe. absolutly amazing. she turned even better out then io was hoping. Amazing job. (poison talents dont a cd yet, needs fix). plz shadow priest next :p

[@DarkLordVeil26]

Well i smell Broll Bearmantle coming to HotS on near Future i guess :)

[@danmosenzon1477]

DarkLordVeil He is already in the game lawl

[@EnesLOTR]

Nah he is not . if you mean by malfurion its just indentic dressing but thats not broll . plus malf cant turn into a bear . bird . - or anything . so broll is diffrent

[@R3ar3ntry]

been looking forward to valeera in wow, but now that she is in hots I feel... contempt, love her abilities, gonna lever her up and smash peeps in ranked

[@Iniesta970]

Stop complaining about having too many assassins, they release a new hero EVERY 3 WEEKS! DO YOU REALIZE HOW MANY HEROES THAT MAKES? You'll get the heroes you want, just wait.

[@GurenNoHanaGaSaku25]

I've been waiting for this since this game first came out. Love it.

[@2626christian]

She looks sick, can't wait to use her in game!

[@LevelUpN00B]

Despite all the complaints Valeera is so much different from other assassins and mastering her is going to be so difficult because of the decision making she requires. She's an excellent hero to add to the game and I'm really thankful to blizzard for adding her.

[@galacticdino]

"We have lots of assasins"" "We need an assasin of assasins"

[@shulershifty6240]

Valeera looks interesting, definitely gonna buy her!

[@darkrangertherllyn6704]

Blizzard,I love this character really trust me but I actually want Maiev Shadowsong to join in the nexus that will be awesome and amazing ! Guess I am not the only one that wants Maiev as hero in heroes of the storm that's for sure .

[@RatchildUK]

I won't complain about the Warcraft Assassin thing (Although I should), but this really should have been Garona instead of Valeera.

[@RatchildUK]

Neither of those things are true.

[@harivonwintr]

It could be both, Thrall and Rehgar are in the game despite them both being shamans.

[@drizzlingrose]

cant wait to try her out :D

[@medigoomnis]

Pretty complicated overall...and that W animation is HILARIOUS, she barely moves...but I still like.

[@heyitsyeh]

Glad they brought the McFlurry back, seeing how the move is completely dead in Hearthstone :(

[@TheLegoJungle]

Y'know what I want now? Maiev for Heartstone as a Rogue skin.

[@JesiAsh]

She looks much better in game than at reveal artwork. Soo... from Hearthstone... only Anduin and Garrosh left ? Cant wait for Dustin Bowder as this tree-species charracter!

[@mmm4093]

Wow , Her kit is overloaded

[@jokanxu7308]

UHH, I see a bug. Blade flurry didn't break her weapons and dealt damage to enemy heros. Pls fix huge bug thx.

[@pigeaterpig6171]

Omg that music

[@MichaelinaPandasuit]

For everyone complaining about the Warcraft assasins in a row Blizzard made a post that they didn't mean to do it on purpose it just happened in development process and they apologize and said there will be many more non assassins coming to the game to everyone can relax

[@caioatila669]

Thanks Blizzard, now more heroes of Diablo and more spec and healers.

[@lux551]

Time for another OP stealth assassin! GJ HotS team

[@VascoDoUrden]

"I see you in the shadows" Mayev announced. At last!

[@LetsGetYou]

Her offense is mostly the fact that she can'T get killed by a solo champ, i mean u often need the whole team and even then she can get away

[@oblivianji]

best hero yet. i love rogues.

[@Rebazar]

Finally, an actual rogue hero! Mathias Shaw next please :)

[@Ozarka0]

I"m still waiting for Gabriel Tosh and Imperius.

[@TuNguyen-jf1le]

Rip Nova, no one gonna play nova after this hero haha

[@juanlupinram]

What a good spotlight. Now as I always say, please give us more healers, there are too few of them and the Healer choke a team can inforce in draft is too big. Healers have great potential to react to a draft.

[@neruos8738]

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew another warcraft assassin........

[@guidovini1212]

MLGANKPLANK need more!

[@loladin14]

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew another qqer in the internet.go make your own game.

[@loladin14]

MLGANKPLANK if that's what you understood well it's just sad.

[@ap3169]

i like new way of Spotlight

[@seremonalsezonu1819]

She is the new waifu

[@Dracobyte]

Ok, Blizzard, cool and interesting assasins. Now we need Imperius, Stukov, Karax, Malthalel, Lucio or Fenix. Also buff Tassadar's attack.

[@MrNosreme70]

My question is why play Zeratul now? Just for VP?

[@UnsuspectingCommenterPassingBy]

Omg, the perfect HotS main for rogue mains

[@koralstrasz]

THAT SILVERMOON THEME! AAAAH

[@Cedtim]

Innovative Gameplay! Now I don't even need to count to 2 until I die!

[@themaelstorm]

I'm a WoW rogue and I approve this. Just make sure Vanish doesn't break randomly! (It takes blizz 3 exp packs to fix it fully :P)

[@93martin9]

I hope you fix the combo point placement. Its not very good atm. Cant wait to play her though!

[@lexwayfarer5771]

shadow dance would make for a more fun ultimate

[@Halicos93]

i might play Valeera she looks fun and interactive like a jungler in league of legends.

[@kazaielotunknown3853]

Her portrait animation is cute

[@TheTlMEWARP]

Love the character design! But master skin could be a little sexier.

[@klepikovmd]

New Ms. Fanservice of Nexus arrives!

[@lipHs1]

SMOKE BOOOOMB, AND THEY GOING DAAAAWN

[@Corpsehider]

Still waiting till Imperius release. :( 2k17 still hoping I won't die until he's released :D

[@Misierbobo]

Of all the rogues they could have chosen from Warcraft, they had to pick a nobody. Well done

[@Ashbringer36]

And who else could they have chosen who isn't a nobody? I can't think of any other rogues other then Garona

[@Estraneo]

Nobody's a bit of a stretch for Valeera. I mean at least she has more story than someone like Tethys or Dagg'um. As for other rogues in lore, we could have also seen Ravenholdt, Taoshi, Shaw, Vanessa, Edwin, Noggenfogger, or Dagg.

[@DavidRodriguez-km6mg]

Valeera is far from a nobody. For this type of rouge, she is the perfect character. For an outlaw rouge, VanCleef (Edwin probably, cause come on, iconic deadmines boss) would pretty cool.

[@teamfortressisawsome]

When I hear of a rogue character in wow I instantly think of Valeera.

[@vane909090]

What about Akama? Draenei assassin from Frozen Throne, who helped Illidan and KT take over Outland.

[@Bollthorn]

Well someone's never missed leg day :3

[@cokonobu2001]

now this is the hero that requires some fckin skill...

[@TheBromander]

Warcraft is their largest universe, why is everyone complaining? I think it's sick. Now we need Vol'jin!

[@SergioRodriguez-pb4yw]

When I play as Valeera I summon Patches as well.

[@oniuserjh]

calling gonna be nerfed: Bladeflurry only deals damage to minions and monster and costs double the energy... :3

[@buihongquanw2525]

Cheap shot is literally the best stealth ability. Who's with me?

[@bermei5187]

Her dance looks familiar.

[@deanc3131]

looks great!

[@MagicOgre]

Just remember, Blizzard: what your players REALLY want, no matter what they ACTUALLY say, is for the two Great Garrys to emerge and conquer the Nexus. The Garrys being Garrosh and Garithos. Why yes, I clearly speak for everyone. Don't doubt me; I'm an expert on these things.

[@Fredcool1994]

All we need now is Anduin and Garrosh , then we will have all HS heroes in HOTS :)

[@luciensaliba3558]

they should put a spell that unleash the dreadlord out of her body

[@karue7581]

Yeah yeah, Assasins of Warcraft and whatever, but she still seens fun to play and with a different enough role from the other heroes recently added, except maybe for Samuro, which still has a very different kit. I don't think she'll change the meta or anything, but I'm looking forward to play her. Also, Innkeeper from Hearthstone. Just do it Blizzard.

[@mr.ketchup698]

3:14 OMG that dance!!

[@Skullhawk13]

Well I found an assassin who I'm going to play, I don't think I'm going to be a support main this month >.>

[@snowdwarf2814]

her kit looks better then in the preview. gj blizzard

[@KevWeezel]

Veleera mains, love how hard they're shitting on those who want veleera to be nerf saying they're low elo, when I am pretty sure most of them are bronze/silver themselves.

[@skyguy713]

So when will the Vikings be added back to the game?

[@MrWacck]

The only hero I need in HOTS is Jeff from the Overwatch team

[@blasterbashar1]

Wack AMIRITE?

[@Adilboukind]

He can nerfs heroes and can broke stiches hook

[@stakefr0mjatefarmvods534]

I'd buy him. And his glorious beard he had when developing Overwatch.

[@marcusager974]

Buff/debuff (or should I say buff/nerf?) oriented support, ultimate is he channels at range to prevent one enemy hero from doing anything while he explains the direction Blizz is trying to take the game =O

[@ScorchHellfire]

Marcus Ager That makes him sound like he would be a legendary skin for Deckard Cain, replacing Stay a While and Listen with an alternate version themed after Dev Updates.

[@unclewyrmwood]

Waaah, waaah, so many assassins! Waaah, so much Warcraft! Wah!

[@r0k45]

well Wc lore is alot more wider then diablo or ow

[@ExoplasmicDischarge]

Well there are more assassins than any other class, and now three new releases in a row are assassins. You can understand why some people would complain.

[@arturv.a.4542]

r0k45 or Starcraft

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

Yeah, they need to fill the time they're bored in with something to do.

[@filipbabovic8474]

why are you crying boy, dont worry everything will be better

[@AwesomeHavenHD]

Assasins of Warcraft confirmed, now all we need Is Kel'thuzad and Deathwing

[@brungus3469]

BaQ PaQMC OMG I hope they add them both and a neptulon skin for rag

[@brungus3469]

XD

[@dustinjones7458]

He's just here to farm that sweet thumbs up.

[@evandrocesar1991]

BaQ PaQMC We need Aegwynn and Maiev.

[@szolar1]

Agreed. I'm waiting for Maiev since the game released.

[@HoorenSan]

Assasins of Warcraft , my favorite Moba.

[@Alexgaby15Channel]

this means I will soon see my favourite Warcraft Assassins coming next, Cairne and Vol'Jin

[@darkomihajlovski3135]

Alexgaby15 wouldn't cairne be a tank or warrior

[@Alexgaby15Channel]

we got ETC as tank I would like cairne to be a beefy assassin that creates an ancestral spirit and he has like war stomp and shockwave and both him and the spirit cast the abilities at the same time, and if you hit a hero with both shockwaves it would deal massive damage, but cairne has very slow move and attack speed, but deals a lot of attack damage and ability damage

[@sunnyd6907]

HAHAHAA OMG THIS IS SO FUNNY, I'VE NEVER HEARD THIS JOKE BEFORE!! oh wait

[@DavidRodriguez-km6mg]

I can't even escape the Kripperinos in a Heroes of the Storm video

[@MyViolador]

stun stun stun stun stun stun vanish!, stun stun stun

[@Hitoame113]

steeeeeeeeaaaaaaaalth......stunstunstunstunstun

[@uarebuttwhatami]

WOWCRENDOR :D

[@tnecniw]

HAH! :)

[@ScorchHellfire]

The authentic WoW pvp experience!

[@RetechDragonflame]

- GANKED NOOB - But you're 30 levels better than me - SHUT UP NOOB

[@Drokash]

0:30 Bodyguard of Varian Wrynn? Yeah, she did a real good job at bodyguarding Varian on the Broken Shore.

[@shiranui498]

too soon

[@danmosenzon1477]

Drokash Ya'know... She kinda had a really importent Hearthstone game at the same time... And things dident really go well... And she couldnt show up...

[@Zereleth]

"AFTER becoming Varians bodyguards she held onto her independence"

[@algalkin]

Basically she collected a paycheck while doing some other things...

[@hhitok9075]

Do the rogue artifact quest on wow to know what happend. And however varian died cuz of greymane.

[@thehermit8723]

So is there a chance we will see Broll as a character? He can easily represent the muscular bear druid's. of Warcraft 3.

[@HighordStarkiller]

or he can represent Shapeshifting Druids and make a second multiclass

[@Warseed1312]

Lord Starkiller Now that would be awesome

[@ohdeer60]

Third, everyone forgets about Kharazim smh...

[@ZadoCreia]

Only issue with that is Broll can only invoke the bear form

[@itsjonesh]

He van invoke other forms. After he cleansed himself of his self hatred (and the fell energy infecting his bear form) in the comics, Broll regained his ability to shapeshift into the other animals.

[@splatttt]

Now we just need Broll to make a gladiator tag team >:3

[@Lucitaur]

No, we need Diablo 2 Druid instead.

[@danmosenzon1477]

Splat There is already a Broll skin for Malf, so its likely we will never see him in the game.

[@rankothefiremage]

Just like Medic Uther?

[@arturv.a.4542]

Dan Mosenzon We shall, Malfurion's Broll Skin is just malfurion wearing different set, plus I've been wanting a Druid that actually Shapeshifts to enter the Nexus for a while now

[@Hedgepook]

There is a Gul'dan skin for Azmodan, yet they released Gul'dan anyways. And as the guy below says, medic Uther is another exception. Broll is definitely a possible pick.

[@effi6286]

Well they gave me almost everything I desired... except for Imperius

[@tnecniw]

I want Imperius... and maybe the angel of death too (Always forget his name -_-)

[@felixdumbravescu2725]

Malthael, just helping.

[@pooriyapoat7398]

Imperius for the win!

[@ScorchHellfire]

Indeed. Entire Angiris Council and Prime/Lesser Evils need to be in at some point. No reason not to.

[@martini646]

i am still waiting for Baal.
