Shop | How to start Heroes of the Storm Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Here you can buy new heroes or change their appearance by buying skins. Mounts are available to buy as well. You can pay for heroes either with gold or with real money. Skins and mounts can be bought only with real money. They don't affect the gameplay, their sole purpose is to look good. Before buying a hero, you can obviously try them for free.

This option is available in the shop, after you select a character. After a while, you'll be transferred to a small battleground where you have to defeat Arthas.

Using the panel in the upper right corner, you can quickly level up the character without killing any minions to try all the skills or reset them. This panel also gives you the possibility to turn the minions on/off, rebuild forts and reset skill cooldown time. It's an amazing feature so you can learn the mechanics of every character without having to spend gold on them.
