Heroes of the Storm Lt. Morales to be buffed
Dustin Browder, game director for StarCraft 2 Heroes of the Storm, recently tweeted that combat medic and support role character Lt. Morales will most likely be receiving a buff to improve her win rate. Browder writes "Medic win rate is a little low. Balance team thinking about a small health buff."Like many other competitive online PC games, a character's win rate varies over time leaving developers with several options on how to approach a specific character's dynamic within an ever changing game environment. One manner of overcoming a perceived imbalance within the game environment is to change a character's base stats to give both the character and human player behind the character a more viable chance of successfully playing to the character's strengths thereby increasing the likelihood of an improved win rate.
