Varian Now Available in Heroes of the Storm; Earn Genji’s Oni Skin with the Nexus Challenge!
World of Warcraft’s High King of the Alliance, Varian Wyrnn, is the newest character to join the ever-expanding Heroes of the Storm roster! Celebrated for his ferocity, he is also the game’s first Multi-Class hero, and allows players to choose the most appropriate skills and playstyle for the given fight; protecting allies by tanking enemy damage, or unleashing brutal attacks as a melee assassin. Varian’s basic abilities include: Lion‘s Fang, a shockwave that travels in a straight line, dealing damage and slowing enemies by 30% for 1.5 seconds; Parry, which blocks all incoming basic attacks for 1.25 seconds, ignoring 100% of the damage; and Charge, which allows Varian to advance toward an enemy target, dealing light damage while slowing their movement by 75% for one second.
