Banners are a cosmetic feature in Heroes of the Storm that allow players' heroes to raise a flag whenever they assert their dominance on the battleground. They are obtained via construction using shards or opening Loot Chests.
Banners can not be manually placed, but are automatically placed and will show the name of the player who planted the banner on the following events:
- becoming an MVP (shown on the MVP screen).
The basic Nexus Banner is free. Basic banners are 40
