Question on Heros

All the Heroes are free to try up to level 5, so you can try them out before you buy them. Blockade is free all the way up to max level. They are currently only used for Co-op missions.

This is the part that concerns me, hero Coop play is really fun. In SC2 it worked well with random people but really shined with friends.

But if Heroes are used for player vs player game modes it drives a view point that if you don't buy the "meta" hero then you will be starting out at a disadvantage. While I am sure that will bring people in who want to pay for an advantage, it will push more people away in the long run.

Our devs are working on various solutions to ensure that 3v3 is not a pay to win mode and it may not match the current hero structure used for co-op.
