Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm is still rolling hot and adding new heroes. As part of its Diablo-centric Eternal Conflict, Heroes of the Storm will be adding Leoric the Skeleton King as a new champion. Check out a video below detailing Leoric’s back-story, abilities and how he fits into the conflict on Nexus.

Leoric was featured in Diablo 3 was one of the first major bosses you fight and wields a giant mace to murder foes with. He also has Drain Hope, which can sap a foe of its health, and Wraith Walk which allows Leoric to project his astral form and immediately teleport to it for some quick, up close fighting. Entomb is also a useful ability since it effectively traps opponents in a small “lane” for Leoric to smash them.
