Why I Play | Zaqueri "Aphromoo" Black | The Players LobbyThe most important thing you can have is motivation and passion. Those are two things I have in abundance, even after all these years of playing. Even after a terrible year on 100 Thieves where we didn’t accomplish much of what we set out to accomplish.

Heroes of the Storm was always doomedHeroes of the Storm was doomed when it began, but that didn’t stop Blizzard from creating their love letter to the Blizzard universe so their fans could enjoy it too. Blizzard pushed forward, creating a MOBA of a different kind: one that focused on teamwork, didn’t force you to perfectly kill minions, had no items, and had different maps for competitive play.
