Kunkka is being ported, and Tundra is Beastmaster

Check your inboxes, here is an email from Maliken sent to everyone:

Hey Everyone,

I wanted to give you guys a status report on Heroes of Newerth. It has been almost 4 weeks since we went retail and we've seen steady growth and consistent addition of players (and it shows no signs of slowing down). At S2 Games things haven't slowed down either. We've released a few patches, one of which contained a new hero. You'll instantly recognize Bubbles and his ability to shell toss, teleport, silence, and crowd control team fights! If you haven't had a chance to play him, you are missing out. We currently have a test patch out with new features, as well as another immediately recognized hero, Tundra. He is a Legion strength hero who has a couple of pets that help him gain vision and slow enemies. This hero will be fully released by week's end!

With 2 new heroes that is just the beginning as we continue to bring all your favorite heroes to the game, ARGGG matey. *hint hint*

One last hint of a new feature we're putting the polishing touches on is a "Report A Player" function in game. We have set up a system of rules for conduct and will strictly enforce those rules through the community policing itself. We will mercilessly clean up the behavior of our community. The trend of griefing and abusing players will stop through player reports, review of game logs and replays, and suspensions and bans for inappropriate behavior.
