Pre-game phase
Ranked matches add a pre-game waiting area where each player can swap once to any unselected hero they have unlocked for Ranked and adjust their starting lane; you only see the enemy's initial heroes.
Source line
As such, with this Ranked update we are introducing the ability to change your hero in the new pre-game phase.
- During this time, you can choose to change your given hero to any other hero that hasn't been selected, as long as you have that hero unlocked for Ranked play.
- there isn't a live update of what heroes the enemy team is changing into (you will only see their initial hero composition).
- Each player can only swap into a new hero once.
- You can also use the new pre-game waiting area to adjust your starting lanes.
