Recently, according to foreign media PCGamer, Blizzard confirmed that Geoff Goodman, the chief hero designer of “Battle Strike 2”, has left. A Blizzard spokesman said Geoff made the decision to leave Blizzard earlier this year, and his last public appearance was in an interview with the media in June.
Blizzard released a statement on Geoff Goodman’s departure: “We thank Geoff for his contributions to Blizzard over the years and wish him the best. His ability to bring Blizzard’s diverse roster of heroes to life is incredible. I am confident that the mark he left on the Warcraft and Battlefield teams will be felt for years to come.”
Geoff Goodman helped remake Doomfist and Orissa in Doom, and designed some of Doom 2’s heroes, such as new heroes Sojourn and Junker Queen. Blizzard did not disclose the reason for Geoff’s departure, but his departure will definitely have some impact on “Strike 2”.
