There are no Zerg tanks can we get Zurvan?

Adding also the fact that there are no tanks that’s anti stealth like rehgar medivh or tassadar.
If blizzard could make a Zerg tank but with anti stealth as well. Tunnel vision characters like ragnoros or thrall would have a higher chance against samuro valeera or nova.

Maybe a Zerg like zurvan would be a good tank?

The problem with Zurvan is the same with Deathwing, in that he is immensely huge, and would probable require a similar mechanic to DW in order to be made.


for reference.

Why waste a hero concept around something trivial like anti stealth?
Also neither thrall nor ragnaros are tunnel vision heroes nor do they struggle that much against stealth.
There are more likely tunnel vision players but then it applied to any hero.

Don’t think it’s a problem Nobody had a problem when chogal existed. No one had a problem with alexstraza turning into dragon form. Also I think blizzard wanted big character in the first place where tychus commander Odin probably inspired to add more big characters.

That Zerg looks interesting too I like the mandibles in that creature.

Yeah we need a ultralisk tank.

yeah, I don’t think it’s necessary to add an anti-stealth tank. We have a grand total of 4 characters in which stealth plays an important/prominent role(ok, maybe you could exclude Zeratul).AND stealth has been reworked to… accommodate players.

Oh wow, I didn’t actually notice that Zurvan had feet. He almost reminds me of a lurker if you look at just his bottom part.

Hold up, correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t Dehaka a zerg tank?

Yeah I guess it is a subjective idea that I want a anti stealth tank. Though I’m kinda thinking blizzards on the boat of bias with favoring to much with stealth characters. Like they had to nerf genji cause he hard countered them all.

Anyway even though zurvan doesn’t have feet or is large I think heroes of the storm needs a ultralisk tank.

No dehaka isn’t a tank he is a bruiser just as imperial who looks like a tank but is just a bruiser.

I would be happy if they invent a new Zerg character / unit to serve as a tank. I would say Ultralisk, but he feels more like bruiser to me.

Genji countered everyone but uther and varian.
Second, the problem with a ultralisk hero is that kerrigan has an ultralisk as her ult. Preferably, a brutalisk might be a better idea instead.

I honestly hate both Kerr’s ults. I would not be upset if they flat out removed the Ultralisk ult from Kerr to make a hero.

There is still the problem of braxis having ultralisks as the zergs waves.

Uh I think that wouldn’t stand out as rank what about something like torrosque?

Good point. Change the zerg waves to include brutalisks instead of ultralisks.

Ugh I’m getting a complete headache if those things are just used as waves for objectives I really hope there are actual Zerg characters that’s medium sized compared to zurvan who everyone who complains he’s too big to come to heroes of the storm.

Zurvan can be added, but I wouldn’t want some crazy mechanic attached to him like DW.

Shrink him down.

I don’t.
I would be.

Both ults are good, depending on what you try to achieve. I’d be bummed to see them go.
They already removed metamorphosis from the demo warlock in WoW to give the skill to the demon hunter. I never recovered from that blow.

yeah I think they can medium size him to diablo. Though him being a large zerg could be left off as a heroic. Called true form. XD

The heroic true form makes him not only big but make him pummel opponents like the punishers in infernal shrines.

On the contrary i want him to be a DW 2.0 with baked in unstoppable.
Let people have their godzilla battle mid while the 8 others do QM fiesta things on the side fantasy.

I’m not sure what you two are talking about with removing the ultra. Easy fix, just make an ultralisk hero stand out somehow. Either evolution choice from the HotS campaign would work just fine honestly, if they didn’t want come up with something new. If that’s not enough, just look at some of the skins for them in SC2.
