Blizzard Announces Heroes Of The Storm Founder's Pack | ContentKick
The new founder pack gives instant access to the beta and a few other perks. Any one played the game yet?

I did. Honestly, the maps are small and everyone is a tank. It seems good on paper - choosing upgrades to skills instead of items, shared level, choosing 1 of 2 ults, no mundane last hitting, big siege mobs, limited mmo on turrets...
But honestly, the damage is way too low. Since map is small and skirmishes happen all the time, no one is allowed to have damage. It takes an assassin like 6 seconds to take down a squishy that stands in place. Not that there really are squishies, cause no items.
Money side? Oh man. 40 bucks for a pony mount. Screw that. It also takes longer to buy things with earned currency (like IP)
I don't know, i didn't play it that much. My friend played it longer and tells me he likes it more, cause of all the new mechanics. But it's just a different game. A team game. You can't feel that rush when you dominate and 1v5 Pentakill with Vayne, because there is no such thing as being fed. Your team might be winning, but everyone is equally fed. Also, don't forget that everybody is a tank.
Hope I helped. Try it out, don't expect much.
I've heard it's fun but the Founder's pack isn't worth it. 3 low tier heroes, 3 skins, 1 mount and beta access for $40?? no. You are mostly paying $40 for the Beta, not the rest because the 3 heroes are so low tier it's like 1 $3 hero and 2 $8 heroes, and their skins are just not that great from what I've seen. So I'd stay away from that pack.
I'm waiting for either beta access to be added to my account or just holding off till they have Open Beta.
Its a fun and interesting game. I like the different maps and objectives. One thing I noticed and like is there is hardly no lag or afkers!!!!!!! servers are ten times better
Thank you for the info just bought it. Instant beta access plus premium currency for heroes u actually want, Demon Hunter and Barb for me. The moba industry really needs a new face with new ideas that can actually succeed. RIP Dawngate, ill miss u.
It looks fun and i'm looking forward to it. However, people really shouldn't pre-order games >.>
Edit: I much rather wait a while, let them workout the bugs and see a bunch of reviews for a polished game. Most likely it will be a solid game but i've been burned to many times falling for the hype.
When open beta hits, i'll probably do a few games to try it out. But its not gonna steal me away from league. Have way to much invested here to leave permanently.
Probably going to just do a 3 day break or something when it goes live.
I haven't played it yet but when does it come out to open beta I'm definitly gonna play it
ive been enjoying it!
