User Interface

Draft Mode
Hero portraits in Draft Lobbies will now use 2D Base Hero art rather than animated 3D Hero Skin models in order to help make Hero picks easier to differentiate from one another at a glance.

Mobile Offensive (Passive)
Now grants its Basic Attack damage bonus after any movement, rather than only after unmounted movement.
Genji
+ Show Spoiler +
PTR Note: Shortly before releasing today’s patch we discovered a bug affecting Genji’s Shuriken (Q). This will likely result in difficult gameplay experiences for those attempting to test Genji’s changes in the PTR. We are working to resolve the issue before this patch is released to the live version of Heroes of the Storm next week. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Stats
Health increased from 1550 to 1620.
Health Regen increased from 3.2304 to 3.3750.
Basic Attack damage increased from 42 to 44.
Abilities
Cyber Agility (Trait) (D)
Cooldown increased from 10 to 12 seconds.
Swift Strike (E)
Range reduced from 14 to 12.
Dragonblade (R)
Damage increased from 220 to 240.
Removed functionality:
Killing an enemy Hero who was recently hit by Dragonblade no longer resets Swift Strike’s cooldown.
Talents
Level 1
Agile Dismount (Trait)
Cooldown reduction increased from 5 to 7 seconds.
Level 13
Double Jump (Trait)
No longer increases Cyber Agility’s cooldown.
Level 20
The Dragon Becomes Me (R)
Additional Functionality:
Now also resets Swift Strike’s cooldown if an enemy Hero dies within 2 seconds after being hit by Dragonblade.
Developer Comment: We’re making some changes to Genji to try and make him less frustrating to play against and give opponents more options to counter him. While we think resetting Swift Strike’s cooldown after killing enemy Heroes with Dragonblade made for cool, flashy plays, it shut down too many other Heroes too often. It also caused too many games to become about how much value Genji was able to get out of Dragonblade. We like the flashiness that Dragonblade resets can provide, so we’re keeping that functionality, but we’re now adding it to his Level 20 Storm Talent version of the Heroic. We’re also increasing his Health and Basic Attack damage, reducing the range of Swift Strike, and increasing the cooldown of Cyber Agility to reduce his mobility while boosting his base stats to compensate.
