The free hero rotation or free-to-play hero rotation is a set of 14 Heroes playable for free in the game modes Training, Versus A.I., Quick Match, Unranked Draft and Ranked (if they are above level 5) and in Custom Games, by all players. The rotation changes every Tuesday, usually offering an entirely new selection of heroes. Access to the 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th Hero of the weekly rotation is unlocked when a player reaches level 5, 10, 15 and 20 respectively.

  • 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.[1]
  • From April 8 to 11, 2016, all Heroes became temporarily free to play to celebrate the Heroes of the Dorm grand final.[2]
  • On March 14, 2017, the weekly rotation was expanded from 10 to 14 Hero slots.[3]
  • 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 correlate with the new hero leveling system.
