Overview

The node "Heroes Profile" integrates with the Heroes Profile API to retrieve and normalize data related to the game Heroes of the Storm. Specifically, for the General resource and MMR Tier Lookup operation, it allows users to input a raw MMR (Matchmaking Rating) value along with a selected game type to look up the corresponding MMR tier information.

This node is beneficial in scenarios where you want to translate raw MMR values into meaningful tiers or ranks within different game modes of Heroes of the Storm. For example, a user could input their current MMR and the game mode they play (e.g., Hero League), and the node will return the tier that corresponds to that MMR, helping players understand their competitive standing.

This typically includes details about the tier associated with the provided MMR value and game type, such as tier name, rank boundaries, and possibly additional metadata describing the competitive level.
