They call it a new game mode, but they didn't have a choice to add this mode. If they didn't, in duels, both players would pick a hero and one player might have an advantage because some heroes are counters for others. They're not hard counters, but still. That would make an uneven duel and that just doesn't work for competitive players and tournaments because skill should be what makes you win a game.

I've been watching this game and it's truly an Overwatch-lite. Heroes have different health levels, speeds and abilities. The shooting itself seems adequate though. The biggest negatives are that weapons and kills don't look and sound satisfying and the announcer voice is a joke.

Still no word on bots, which is the only thing that might make me interested in the game. Coop against bots.

Edit: Almost forgot the biggest fail! The game doesn't seem to have Dead-reckoning/interpolation code(what smooths player movement when there's lag). It might have some, but watch any game and you'll soon see instances where players teleport all over at the rate of their ping. It's insane that a modern multiplayer-focused game would have no dead-reckoning. Maybe there's some and it just turns off in some situations...
