Heroes of the Storm BlizzCon LineUp Cropped

Yesterday, I joined Heroes of the Storm game director Dustin Browder and technical director Alan Dabiri to talk about the next addition to the HotS roster, how they're working to be accessible while designing a high skill cap, and the upcoming Heroes of the Dorm tournament.

Keep an eye out for our ASUS ROG G751 laptop giveaway after PAX East—we're collecting signatures from everyone we interview for a one-of-a-kind prize.

Tyler grew up in Silicon Valley during the '80s and '90s, playing games like Zork and Arkanoid on early PCs. He was later captivated by Myst, SimCity, Civilization, Command & Conquer, all the shooters they call "boomer shooters" now, and PS1 classic Bushido Blade (that's right: he had Bleem!). Tyler joined PC Gamer in 2011, and today he's focused on the site's news coverage. His hobbies include amateur boxing and adding to his 1,200-plus hours in Rocket League.
