The matchmaker will search the Hero League queue in order to place players with and against players of similar skill, and will also use a matchmaking rating (MMR) that’s separate from Quick Match rating. Players must queue for Hero League alone. Neither Cho nor Gall count towards this requirement, due to the event of being the last player on your team to choose a hero as they are played together.Weekly free hero rotation now counts toward the minimum Hero requirement.Since there are bans now, it is required to own 14 or more heroes, who are at least Level 5 or higher.Any level can participate in Hero or Team League games. Minimum player requirements has been removed.
