  • Three roles: Vanguards absorb damage, Duelists deal it, and Strategists heal and support the team.
  • Team-Up abilities: Certain hero pairs unlock bonus abilities when they play together.
  • Destructible maps: Walls and cover can be broken, opening new angles during a match.
  • Free heroes: New heroes added in seasons are free to play.
