==Notes== * In the early [[Alpha|Technical Alpha]], the developers ''temporarily'' allowed [[Raynor]] as an additional {{nth|8}} free hero, in order to ease new players' transition out of the [[tutorial]]. * The store closed on September 22, 2014. After that, all Heroes were temporarily free to play until September 29, 2014. * On December 8, 2015, the weekly rotation was expanded from seven to ten free Hero slots.<ref name="8dec-2015">[http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/19984162 Heroes of the Storm Patch Notes β December 8, 2015]</ref> * From April 8 to 11, 2016, all Heroes became temporarily free to play to celebrate the [[Heroes of the Dorm]] grand final.<ref name="hotd-2016">[http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/20079817 Celebrate Heroes of the Dorm with a Full Hero Roster and 50% More XP]</ref> * On March 14, 2017, the weekly rotation was expanded from 10 to 14 Hero slots.<ref name="14mar-2017">[http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/20581822 Heroes of the Storm Patch Notes β March 14, 2017]</ref> * On May 2, 2017, the unlockable Hero slots' minimum level requirements were raised from 5, 7, 12 and 15 to 5, 10, 15 and 20 respectively, to correspond with the new hero leveling system. * In late 2019, Blizzard stopped updating the free Hero rotation posts on the official forums (free Heroes still continue to be marked as such on the official website). * From March 20 to April 13 of 2020, all Heroes were free due to the COVID-19 pandemic, to encourage players to stay safe and quarantine. * From February 19 to March 20 of 2021, all Heroes were free to celebrate Blizzard's 30th anniversary. * On June 8th of 2021, the Free Rotation didn't change due to unknown reasons, and remained the same until the 17th, as the following week's free rotation also got delayed by two days. * On July 12th of 2022, the Free Rotation change was changed from weekly Tuesdays to four set days (1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd) of every month.
