Ignoring Players in Heroes of the Storm

Our games are designed to be friendly social experiences; however, we have included tools to block unwanted communication from other players in-game. If another player's communication is in violation of our Code of Conduct, please also consider reporting the incident to us for investigation.

Blocking a Player

To ignore a player in Heroes of the Storm, follow these steps:

1. Right-click the character portrait or the character name in chat and select Block Communication.
2. Click Block Player to confirm.

While ignored, the player cannot whisper you, send group invites, or request a group invite. You will not see their messages in public chat channels or see their map pings in a match.

Removing a Player from the Blocked List

To remove a player from the Blocked list, if they are still visible in the chat history, you can right-click the character name and select Unblock. Otherwise, follow these steps:

1. Hit Esc to bring up the game menu.
2. Select Options.
3. Select Social.
4. Under the Blocked Communication list, find the character name and click Unblock.
