Pretty much agree with everything in your post there Beamer...
But one technical aspect,
Since they're not all unlocked (and I'm now level 10 without having played a single other hero), it's hard to really know what you're up against: you need to play as a hero to really get it.
At least the past two betas (maybe more) have had all of the heroes available, none of them are locked down.
They are not locked down, you just need to rent them. Anyone form last beta also has them all unlocked as though they bought the game. but anyone new is back to renting for favour. So....
Out of interest Beamer, given you have played for some time, why have you not tried a few more? (you must have the favour for it).
Tried Anarki last night. I mean, I have like 40,000 favor, but the whole renting for 24 hours thing really bothers me. Were it "rent for 60 in-game minutes" or "5 matches" I'd be down with it, but 24 hours feels like I need to be around to play to get value. Which may be what they want, but for me personally, rather than incentivize me to play more it incentivizes me to rent less. I don't want to feel like not playing one more match means I'm missing out on something.
Also, I hated Anarki. Not being able to open an empty map to get a feel for the character you just rented is dumb.
