** Kharazim also seems to exist solely to serve as a punching bag. Thus far, he's [[EyeScream taken a needle to the eye]] from Abathur before getting buried alive-ish, been curbstomped by Varian, and gotten the crap beaten out of him by an entire team.

''(Honk-Honk!)''
You know that [[MultiplayerOnlineBattleArena Hero Brawler]] game, ''VideoGame/HeroesOfTheStorm''? The one where the characters from VideoGame/{{Warcraft}}, VideoGame/{{Starcraft}}, VideoGame/{{Diablo}}, [[VideoGame/TheLostVikings some classic Blizzard games]] and now VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} duke it out in a 5-on-5 battle arena contesting objectives and destroying the opposing bases? The one that looks like the Creator/BlizzardEntertainment edition of VideoGame/SuperSmashBros?
Take that game, {{chibi}}-fy it a bunch, tweak the personalities of various units, imagine them being a caricature of some gamer style of that game while still battling the objectives, then throw in a healthy serving of HilarityEnsues, and you'll get an idea as to what this series is all about.
Produced by Carbot Animation, the people behind WebAnimation/StarCrafts and WebAnimation/WowCraft, proving that they really are genuine fans of Creator/BlizzardEntertainment, ''Hero Storm'' (or Heroes Storm, the logo image says so, but the video is titled with singular word) is a animated web series available through [[http://www.youtube.com/user/CarbotAnimations Youtube]] released on roughly a monthly or bi/tri-weekly period (along side Carbot's other series). In each short little episode, the two sides do their routine battles like you'd expect, but hilarity usually ensues in any ongoing battles, at expense of some heroes. The series is usually carried in 6 episodes covering an arc, which ends in a mass (wacky) team battle reuniting the cast from the previous episodes set with one shining never-seen-before star, before moving on to the next arc.
Blizzard themselves has also used Carbot's works based on this series to promote some of their events in the game, such as ''Heroes of the Dorm'' and ''Recruit-A-Friend''.
!Hero Storm includes examples of the following tropes:
* AffectionateParody: Of course, if you notice Carbot's [[WebAnimation/StarCrafts other]] [[WebAnimation/WowCraft works.]] This is to show their dedication to Blizzard's games.
* AscendedMeme: Carbot did get Azmodan in the Azmodunk costume and doing the deadly three-point shoot BEFORE Blizzard announced the official Azmodunk skin.
