I'm not saying it's something people don't want, because 90% of people would probably say they do if we asked, but once they were in it would turn into an EaW situation where the gameplay is so dependent on them that it's ultimately better not to do it. Unless someone can convince us otherwise, the only role for "heroes" will be as the flagships in the flagship Victory mode. Sometimes it seems as if people want heroes or put them in because "look it's another thing we've changed," which is far from what we're going for.
