Blizzard got a big list for possible heroes

Blizzard got lots of heroes for HotS

Will it save them though?

In a interview the "hero designer" Kent-Erik Hagman spoke with enthusiasm about all the possibilities they have with different heroes that they want to add to the game. 

This was at BlizzCon 2015 by the way. 

I mean, they do have large titles with a large amount of different characters to choose from. But even if they would add 200 new heroes. Would people play the game?

Like I mentioned on the last episode of "The Fit Gamer Podcast". They created Heroes of the Storm when the Moba scene were already full with fans of Dota2 and League of Legends. HotS started the race when the other titles were miles away already. 

Apparently a new game mode will be implemented as well. Something called "The Arena" and new battlegrounds. This won't make me play less League of Legends and go play Heroes of the Storm instead though. And I don't think many people will either. 

Kent-Erik has got some serious enthusiasm though. Maybe they will pull some big move that will attract some players again?

The two-player character is the latest thing. Sounds like something fun for a casual game. I don't think that they will manage to create this large competitive scene that League of Legends and Dota2 has. I think the game will be a casual game without a focus on rankings and big tournaments/leagues with huge amounts of money for the winners.
