We may have a hint at the hero after Alarak and Zarya

I think you're probably right, although it could simply be a minion.

May I direct your attention here

My guess would be it's a minion/merc/filler from one of the new maps.
Mainly because of the lack of detail in the character. Not sure how all of the previous heroes were teased but doing so with such a low quality drawing doesn't really make it interesting (which may be on purpose to downplay the tease).
Also both sides show 5 heroes already so it would kinda defeat the symmetry/theme of the art. This may not be a factor for Blizzard when creating these hints but it would bug me :P

Another post did this also. Everyone is a hero in that picture, I really believe that's a hero weird just to have a minion in a teamfight.

It's a firebat, and I'm pretty sure it's a merc or minion

Hey there, I know you put an aweful lot of work into your post, but this has already been posted (as linked by another user in the comments here). Sorry

Ok. Do what you must

We will probably see a firebat/marauder hero in October and then the next ones announced at Blizzcon.

It looks more like a Marauder to me because of the mostly dark armor. I don't see the giant fuel cannisters on the back, nor do I see the rounded dual flame cannons on the forearm.
But I think he's just there as filler, to fit the theme of the map. Notice how there is a Zerg Corrupter hovering around Kerrigan.
Would love a Firebat, but I don't think this is a planted teaser.
I think that's actually an Abathur hat floating over Kerrigan, so the Terran unit does seem to be the only thing not directly tied to an existing hero.
