Heroes of the Storm is still alive and well, here’s some 2022 resources

destructoid.com:

Three years ago, then-Blizzard-president J Allen Brack (remember those weird times?) delivered what was henceforth known as the “Brack Letter,” which dropped the hammer of Heroes of the Storm esports and essentially put the game in maintenance mode. It was a devastating blow for the community, but it persisted, and is as strong as ever. If you wanted to catch up with all the Heroes of the Storm 2022 goings-on, this is the place!

Here are a few ways Heroes of the Storm (which is still free-to-play) continues to cement its legacy, and differentiate itself from a lot of the other MOBAs out there.

Just because Blizzard killed official esport support, it doesn’t mean that esports ever really died for Heroes of the Storm.

In short, the Heroes CCL (or Heroes Community Clash League) is now the defacto big dog Heroes of the Storm esport organization. You can find the full rundown on how and why it was created here.

Here’s the latest info on season 4 (and the org itself) directly from CCL leadership:

“HeroesCCL Season 4 is a 13-week long Heroes of the Storm league composed of Masters-plus players from any region. HeroesCCL is owned and operated by Wisdom Gaming Group d/b/a Heroes Hearth and not affiliated with or administrated by Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. in any way. The eight (8) Orgs from Season 3 will continue to be a part of CCL and those Orgs are selected by CCL Admin. Orgs are responsible for drafting their team, managing their rosters and paying Players their monthly stipend and prize money.”

That’s right, they’re on season 4, which is a testament to how passionate everyone is about Heroes esports, from top to bottom. CCL games will kick off on Saturdays and Sundays at 2PM ET, and the regular season into the playoffs
