Hots greatest failure is Arthas.
RevolutionaryAd6789I wonder if they will ever show us their work on this and also on the new hero they never released, that would be cool
FuenteAll I have right now is an incomplete set of internal patch notes for the Arthas Rework, I'll poke around and see if I can find a more complete one. IIRC, we had spent about 2-3 months iterating on ideas and were settling down to a near final design.

That was a persistent problem with Hots development: heroes would have a clear shortcoming, but the developers refused to do anything but small number tweaks unless years passed and they did a major rework. Almost never willing to grab a hero and do one single big change.
FuenteArthas was one of the oldest, "crustiest" designs in the entire game. He needed a lot more love than just a few number tweaks.
