Portraits are special icons used to represent players on the team select and match loading screens. The player's Player Level, Hero League Rank or Team League Rank is displayed on the portrait. Portraits are purely cosmetic, and are designed to add personality and/or to display the player's rank.
Earning portraits
Players can choose from a range of portraits, with most earned through levelling heroes, or participating in special events.
- All players start with the basic Nexus Recruit Portrait
- Raising a hero to level 5 will award that hero's Hero Portrait
- Raising a hero to level 15 will award that hero's Master Portrait
- Some themed portraits are awarded for raising a group of heroes to a certain level, such as the Undercity Collection Portrait, which requires raising Sylvanas and Stitches to level 15
- Participating in special seasonal events and promotions can award portraits
Borders
Each portrait is displayed with one of three borders.
- The Basic Border features a simple border and displays the player's Player Level. This is available to all players.
- The Hero Border features a more elaborate border and displays the player's Hero League Rank. It is unlocked through reaching Player Level 30.
