Assassin | Types of heroes Heroes of the Storm Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Heroes that do as much damage as possible, usually to a single target. Assassins are rather weak so you have to be careful. Playing as an Assassin requires thoughtfulness, sometimes patience and right timing. You have to attack the enemy, get back as quickly as possible and plan the next move. Most assassins can run away from the enemy rather quickly (jumping away, teleporting etc.) Examples of assassins: Kerrigan, Nova, Illidan, Valla, Zeratul.
