Nice, thanks for making and posting the list Bluebandit93 ^^.

Would you be fine if I share this in the community Discord server and pin it, so that people can more easily find the post and be able to use it for what character to recommend to new players who are wondering who to use? :-).

Added The Manticore as November 2020 sign in Hero
Hero releases have patch notes / announcements linked.

Does anyone have the original 15 characters’ notes - I cant find it anywhere and would be nice to have it there for completeness.
@Polaris is this something you could possibly help with by any chance?

Can’t hurt to just ask :slight_smile:
