Heroes of the Storm Introduces Chen Stormstout

If one Stormstout wasn't enough, this panda drinks brew and breathes fire!

Blizzard has released its latest Hero Page for Heroes of the Storm, and this time around we get introduced to the Wandering Brewmaster, Chen Stormstout.

Chen is a classified as a melee warrior, who uses his strong survivability and area of effect abilities to control and dominate the battlefield. Chen's Hero Trait, Fortifying Brew, allows him to stop and drink his brew periodically in order to fuel his other abilities.

Chen's starting abilities include:

Flying Kick: Portly Pandarens are more nimble than they appear. Chen's flying kick can deliver a sharp blow as well as get him into a more advantageous position on the battlefield.

Keg Smash: Chen would prefer to avoid spilling good brew, but sometimes it's necessary. Enemies are crushed under the keg and drenched with brew, slowing their movement temporarily.

Breath Of Fire:Chugging so much brew leaves Chen with flammable breath. More than just a parlor trick, enemies caught in Chen's fiery blast suffer serious burns. Those already soaked with brew from keg smash are engulfed in flame for even more damage.

Chen's heroic abilities include:

Wandering Keg: Nothing creates chaos like a runaway keg of brew. Chen can hop into his barrel and smash into foes, knocking them all around the battlefield.

Storm, Earth, Fire: In dire times, Chen can draw upon the power of three elements and split himself into their spirit forms. Each spirit unleashes elemental wrath upon its enemies with every attack.

Chen Stormstout was one of the three new heroes previewed at Gamescom this year, along with Azmodan and Anub'arak. Knowing this, it may be safe to assume that we'll be seeing additional pages for those upcoming heroes in the near future. You can view Chen's full Hero Page here, and for more information on Blizzard's upcoming MOBA, keep it locked to ZAM!
