Because Fenix is an assassin-type character, his abilities inside the game are designed to allow him to deal plenty of damage and to also put him in a good position to attack.
First off, his Plasma Cutter ability is one that can be used to clear out a crowd that has gathered around him. In addition to dealing damage, this ability also slows enemies down quite a bit.
Fenix's second Primary Ability is about gearing him properly ahead of attacking. Weapon Modes allow Fenix to shift between two states, with each one coming with its own set of advantages.
Also, Fenix will be able to Warp from one location to another inside "Heroes of the Storm" after a brief channeling period.
Inside the game, Fenix will have two Heroic Abilities that will allow him to leave a trail of destruction in his wake: Purification Salvo and Planet Cracker.
Purification Salvo enables Fenix to take out multiple enemies using locked-on missiles that launch after a quick bit of channeling. On the other hand, Planet Cracker features Fenix letting out a burst of pure, destructive energy that can move across the battleground.
Developers have really made an effort to make sure that Fenix will excel at dishing out the damage, and there will likely be many players looking forward to using his talents in the game.
