           Summary: Heroes of the Storm Freezes after its February 2nd
                    Patch
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.44
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

It appears there is no bug report on this even though it is being reported by
multiple people.

Heroes of the Storm worked fine in WINE until the most recent patch. Now
starting a match has a very high chance to freeze the game up between 0 and 30
seconds after the match starts (after the loading screen). Killing the process
and starting the game again makes it tell you you need to rejoin the game, and
the rejoin process will also freeze, possibly because HotS' game rejoining
process makes it repeat all the game's actions in the background.

 There appears to be a low probability chance that the freeze will not happen,
which causes some reports of people claiming to fix the issue by changing
graphics settings or changing the hero composition / game mode. Only to later
report that the game is freezing again.

Reports specify various WINE versions including staging 1.9.2. In my case it's
1.7.44, which is why I am including that version in the report. 

I tried enabled debugging text but the output doesn't report anything that
coincides with the lock up and the text output seems roughly the same as it was
before. I can provide the output text when I have more time if needed.
