- For the Grunty skin available in-game, see Murky.
Grunty is a murloc marine. He appeared in early builds of Heroes of the Storm. He has since become an alternative skin for Murky.[1] Grunty was sucked into a magic vortex and whipped across the dimensions when he battled a 25-man raid one Tuesday night. Deposited in the Koprulu sector, Grunty often finds himself among the zerg as murlocs are the only creatures the zerg have ever refused to infest.[2]
