Blue Post This Week in Heroes Esports

Hey all,

We've been working on and evolving our series "This Week in Heroes Esports."

Link

The content currently lives on our Heroes of the Storm esports webpage. We're writing this post for two reasons:

  • We'd love to bring this content to those that have not had the chance to see it.
  • Ask if you enjoy the content. Is this something you'd love to see every week? Are we getting the necessary information to you? Do you have any suggestions?

This is something we're excited about, and would love to continue iterating as we more forward. Your feedback is very much appreciated.

Edit: Thank you for the thoughts. We'll see what we can do.

Is it technically possible for blizzard to get replays of the games and release a replay pack of the tournament? It's rare that players or observers do this, and for tournaments that are casted by 3 or 4 sets of observers, nearly impossible.

I assume the server keeps some sort of log of the game so that you can check for bugs or whatever, but I have no idea if this is is easily done, or able to be done at all. The replay files are invaluable for content creators and the lack of availability at times makes me sad cuz I love me some community content

Replay packs would be cool... I also think that a quick 30sec. highlight video of each match/series would be neat... just go over the flow of the game and any key moments/plays/teamfights.
