Blizzard has just confirmed the array of characters that will enter the free hero rotation in its Heroes of the Storm multiplayer experience, including big picks like Zeratul or Tychus, not to mention recently tweaked ones like Tyrande or Diablo.

Heroes of the Storm spent most of 2014 as a closed technical alpha stage, and as soon as January 2015 rolled around, Blizzard unleashed the closed beta stage for its multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) experience on PC.

Since then, the studio has made some big changes to the already popular game, tweaking heroes, refining the interface, and adding lots of new content and elements.

A new free hero rotation debuts tomorrow

After having made some sweeping modifications to the whole experience last week, such as adding a new hero, in the form of Sylvanas, and a new battleground, in the form of Tomb of the Spider Queen, Blizzard confirms the free hero rotation that's going to debut tomorrow, March 31, on the official forums.

First up, for regular players of the game, no matter the level, Li Li, ETC, Diablo, Tyrande, and Tychus will be available at no charge. Afterwards, players with their accounts above level 12 will be able to use Gazlowe for free, while those at 15 or higher are getting their hands on Zeratul, in addition to all of the above.

Many heroes have been altered by last week's patch

Most of these heroes received some modifications through last week's patch, starting with Diablo, who has a lower cooldown for his Apocalypse Ultimate, and continuing with a very small tweak for E TC, whose Fury of the Storm talent was replaced with a Hardened Shield.

Li Li got a bug fix to stop her Healing Brew and Jug of 1000 Cups abilities from healing ABathur's Ultimate Evolution Clones or Nova's Holo Decoys, while Tychus got some renamed talents.

Tyrande was modified by far the most with last week's patch, as many talents were removed or replaced with others, while cooldowns and other such things were changed.
