It was made known at "Heroes of the Storm's" Battle Net page that Zul'jin from the "Warcraft" universe will be coming forth to the MOBA title alongside its signature moves and abilities.   

As a refresher, Zul'jin is a forest troll that once became a leader of the Amani tribe prior to the so-called "Second War." He then joined forces with the orcish horde during the said conflict and was later on captured by the Grand Alliance right before the war ended.  

The warlord troll is also a highly skilled assassin whose weapon of choice is a pair of battle axe. It was even mentioned by Gamespot that the upcoming playable character is able to throw an axe with enough speed that can instantly kill an opponent.   

That being said, a couple of Zul'jin's primary abilities are in relation to his weapon specialty namely the Grievous Throw that lets the character throw his battle axe in a straight path directly to his opponent dealing 130 damage points towards the first couple of enemies.  

Another axe ability is called the Twin Cleave where Zul'jin throws his axe in a circular path that inflicts 116 damage points and slows down enemies for 2 seconds per hit. Regeneration is also one of his primary skills that replenish 25 percent of his maximum number of hit points provided that he is stationary and not being hit by his opponents.  

As for Zul'jin's heroic abilities, he is endowed with a so-called Taz'dingo where he will be deemed "immortal" for at least four seconds. Moreover, his other ability - the Guillotine, will have a massive axe falling down in a chosen area dealing 210 damage to enemies.    

Currently, Blizzard has yet to make an official statement as to when the Zul'jin update will go live in "Heroes of the Storm." It is believed, though, that the character will be seen within this month.
