Heroes of the Storm

After Overwatch’s Winter Wonderland, it’s now the turn of Blizzard’s MOBA Heroes of the Storm to throw a Christmas-themed event. The event in question is Snow Brawl because Mei’s Snowball Offensive clearly wasn’t enough when it comes to weaponizing snow.

As per the rules, snowballs can be picked up in maps and they’re of two kinds – fluffy and heavy. Only one can be held at a time and you’ll have to attack the enemy core. The fluffy snowball will hit heroes in a single line, knocking them back and dealing a large amount of damage, while the heavy snowball works as an area-of-effect attack that hurts non-hero enemies. It can also slow enemies by 60 percent over two seconds.

The brawl itself allows you to choose from one of three random heroes before hopping in. Finishing three matches earns you 1,000 Gold and a neat-looking portrait.

What are your thoughts on the new brawl? Let us know below.
