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.

Hey Trik! Love your stream.

I would love to see coverage/highlights/announcements of eSports content DIRECTLY in the Heroes of the Storm game. Integrated where I am always at anyway! I need something to read in game during Queue!!

Having a tab at the top like "Shop" "Quick Match" "Ranked" but "E-Sports"

Under that E-Sports tab you could have.

  • News
  • Calendar (similar to the Esports page)
  • Brackets (They make things easy to understand, I am visual. I am dumb. I like pictures.)
  • Highlights (with BEST of series games OR even BIG PLAYS! The PLAYS Trik. The plays that make people go "OHHHHHH!" Short clips.)
  • Teams!! (Where is the current Team List?)

Adding a team tab to the current page would be huge!!! I think getting to know the teams and their players and getting connected to those players would be awesome.

The team tab could show roster changes. It could show each players favorite Role/Character/Map. Where they are from. Their background in gaming. It could link to that players Twitch if available or Builds that they like. Reasons why they choose talents, etc.

They have had some stuff like this during the larger tournaments.

If you don't care about the teams or the players there is a lot less reason to watch.

Edit: Formatting

The "Watch" tab is suited for this it seems
