Briefly: Blizzard has weighed in on the two issues players have had with The Butcher since he dropped into Heroes of the Storm last week. It confirmed that his unstoppable charge move is bugged "and will be fixed with an upcoming patch". As for his gameplay balance, they said he is "nowhere near underpowered or overpowered".

Blizzard designed The Butcher to be a very scary addition to Heroes of the Storm. Since he arrived in the developer's newly-minted MOBA last week, he's been a little too scary for some players thanks to a loophole in his ability kit.

Iconic Diablo villain The Butcher has been terrorising people in Heroes of the Storm since he arrived in the game last week, and not always for the right reasons. Despite being a very cool and well-designed hero, many HOTS players feel that he's ridiculously overpowered at the moment.

If there's a single phrase I'd associate with the original Diablo, it'd have to be: "Fresh meat!" That's the line The Butcher growls as he strides towards you from a room full of festering corpses. He wasn't the biggest or baddest villain in the game. He wasn't even a Lord of Hell. But he was the first boss you encountered. And he was absolutely terrifying.
