It's the price one pays for having an 'unfun' mechanic in the game.

I agree it's not an amazing change (though I also don't think it's that bad from the screen shots, I'll need to wait and see it in game) but the options are either leave it harder to see and nerf the stealth heroes into the ground to make them less threatening or weaken the stealth mechanic a bit and maybe buff the heroes.

After waiting a second stationary you supposedly become fully invis. I think the idea is that you aren't meant to sneak up on people anymore (well as long as they're paying close attention). If it is so bad they could tie some skills to stealth itself so they will be weaker if got forced out of stealth to encourage more cautious gameplay form stealthers and more perception from enemies.īut even aside that i believe there can b better solution - just look how Riot handled it with Eve and Shaco (if you not familiar - first one has constant stealth, but it`s more like 'map' stealth and she can be seen if she`s too close to heroes/buildings, and second one have invisibility only for a short time after he use his blink, and when he blinks enemy can notice small smoke cloud at the point he blinked from even through fog of war), that`s good ways to balance it. What`s the problem with 'eye test'? It is actually cool thing even against you.

I think the idea is that you aren't meant to sneak up on people anymore. Might of the Nerazim is a new Heroic (replacing Shadow Assault) - replicate any Basic ability you recently used. Illusions are now weaker and their damage has been moved into Samuro. No more random placement for his Illusions. Swap location with images (from Illusion Master is now baseline. Ambush teleports her if in stealth for at least 3 seconds.She has a new ability to instantly stealth. Here's probably a better screenshot of the update. Truevision is added to the game and Structures now have the ability to reveal stealthed Heroes. It's easier to spot stealthed Heroes now thanks to the new shader.Īfter 1.5 seconds, stealthed Heroes will be completely invisible as long as they remain stationary. As a result, Nova, Valeera, Samuro and Zeratul get various Hero changes. In the 2018 update, Blizzard's reworking the Stealth shader in Heroes of the Storm.
