Heroes of the Storm Wiki
Relentless [Passive]

Reduces the duration of stuns, slows, and roots against your Hero by 50%.


Tier 5 (Hero Level 13)

Relentless was a Generic Talent that made crowd control effects less effective against your Hero. This was generally a Talent for frontline Heroes who were likely to absorb lots of crowd control, and was always active. It had no effect on Silence and would not cancel a knockback or pull once it started.

Blizzard decided that the effect was unclear to enemies when their disables would suddenly expire too soon, and was removed from the game.[1] However, some Abilities still have the crowd control reduction as a limited time additional effect.

Cleanse was at one point changed to work by purging them of crowd control effects and applying Relentless on the target for 2 seconds, but that change was reverted after some time.
