I was super excited for the game mode. until i saw it played.

It's the laziest hero defense i've ever seen. So much polish into making it look flashy, but absolutely no gameplay polish. It's absolutely just an advertisement for the skins with no real thought put into it.

Hero Defenses are cool because of how ridiculously everything scales upwards. They should feel like playing through the entire run of DBZ. you start off doing cool stuff, and end up doing stuff on a different power scale.

I was expecting the champs to gain a level every wave an abilities to scale to like 10-20 ranks. with crazy modifiers as they get up there. Rank 4 Lux ult that reflects off walls, poppy ult that insta kills past a certain rank, jinx fishbones getting free runaans bolts at higher ranks. etc. instead we got standard gameplay, with refreshed sums, so the game maintained the slow pace of league but without the interaction with a human opponent.

you could find amateur custom maps in war3 that just took the heroes from the standard mode and added 6 more ranks to the skills that felt more interesting to play.
