VideoHeroes of the Storm got a large update today with a huge reworking of everything outside the gameplay, including loot boxes to unlock heroes, skins, new voice lines, new sprays, new...ok, lots of shit. And its retroactive so if you log in now every loot box you would have earned will be there for you to open. In addition there are 4 20 hero bundles which they give you enough in-game currency to purchase for free. Choose wisely since you can only buy one and the rest disappear.
So thats Heroes. There is also a new Nexus Challenge cross promo with Overwatch. It is split over 4 weeks.

Things to note: You have to complete the previous weeks goal to earn later week rewards. You cant just play 5 games in week 4 and get 10 loot boxes. However, don't have to complete that weeks rewards in that week, so you could play nothing the first 3 weeks and then 20 games in week 4 to get everything.
If you dont have friends, just go into HotS chat and type /join nexuschallenge and you'll find plenty of people to quickly add to your friends list to play with.
