Players will also get the chance to take on the role of Ragnaros and become the raid boss. Varian is the first multiclass hero and can either be a shield-bearing warrior or a life-ending assassin, according to the developer. During its keynote presentation at BlizzCon today, Blizzard announced two new characters for its online battle arena brawler Heroes of the Storm that players would be able to choose: Warcraft's King of Stormwind, Varian Wrynn and Ragnaros.
