Doubtful, it#s more likely they have a schedule laid out with heroes to align with their "story", seasons and shit. If you reshuffled the order or scrapped certain heroes it would affect every other department.
A realistic estimate for how long you'd want is about 4-5 months total, ideally 6.
1 month relase buffer minimum to iron out kinks and bugs, 1-2 months for all the art (vfx, model, rigging, animations), 2-4 months for design ideas, prototyping, iteration and polish.
