There's this weird phenomenon in HotS where heroes that you haven't liked suddenly become your favorite heroes

Like seriously. I've had this with multiple heroes already. Brightwing is a good example. For a long while I thought brightwing is boring due to her passive heal, and I considered her E to be strange. Now she's my go to support in most situations and I consider brightwing the coolest and most fun support of all. :)

Stuff like this has happened to me over and over again, most recently with chen that I bought yesterday. I always thought Chen wouldn't fit my playstyle so I didn't play him, I thought using his D ability over and over again to be able to use my other abilities would feel clunky and weird and that I would be bad at chen.

Turns out I'm a pretty good chen actually and he's fun as hell to play. Haven't touched any other hero in the last 24 hours.

I'm hoping that someday Tyrael and Vikings will "click" for me too, those are the only two heroes left that I never play. :p

    Tyrael took me a looong time to click with me, and now he's one of my go to warriors! I found i really needed to understand him as a "Dive-Assist Warrior". He pairs great with a Kerrigan, Butcher, Illidan, or Greymane, someone who wants to jump in there and really muck things up. He can dive with them with his Q (which slows), shield them with his W, speed boost them with his E, and with Sanc keep them alive through the combo. (Or go Judgment for the DELETE spec!). I found I really struggle with him if I don't have people to dive with, because then i Q in, and have no one to shield or speed boost :-(

    But give him a try in those comps and see how it goes!

    Why would he pair well with Gul'dan?

    Leoric's skeletal swing (in life and death) and his entomb allows Gul'dan to apply a ton of damage and build stacks with his corruption. :) Happy hunting.

    Leoric for me. I absolutely hated playing him in our internal play tests. Took me a long time internally and live to get use to him and find my flow. Now he's one of my favorite warriors. Pairs extremely well with Gul'Dan as well.
