The awards system is a system of player recognition in Heroes of the Storm. It is a mixture of game- and player-chosen recognition and commendations.

Becoming the MVP[ | ]

At the end of every match, excluding Custom matches and some Brawls, the game will automatically promote a player to MVP MVP (most valuable player) based on their performance in the match. The number of votes required to achieve epic and legendary commendations on the end of match awards screen have each been reduced by one vote.

All players will be eligible for the title of MVP and Awards, regardless of whether or not they were on the winning team, so be sure to try your hardest in every match to earn your place on the Award screen. The MVP screen will display the MVP’s top three stats from the match.

Feats of strength[ | ]

Of course, the MVP isn't alone in performing heroic feats of strength on the battlefield. Awards will also be distributed at the end of the match to four other players who made significant unique individual contributions to their team. Just like the MVP, skill will earn a place on the Award screen, allowing others to commend a player's achievement, as well as a unique icon next to their name on the end-of-match Stats screen.

Commending a Contender[ | ]

Instead of leaving it up to the game to completely decide who had the greatest or most impressive individual impact, we’re allowing everyone in the game to pick an awarded player to commend at the end of every match. Commendations serve as a virtual thumbs-up, recognizing the player that you thought earned some additional attention. By simply clicking the arrow underneath that player’s Award, you can boost them up and support their accomplishments for everyone to see. Allied chat will also be available for the duration of the Awards celebration, which should take about 15 seconds in total, so dish out commendations and say your congrats to any teammates who you feel deserved some praise! Players who receive enough commendations at the end of the match will be elevated to Epic or Legendary status and may even receive a little extra fanfare
