Hello!

I got my friends into this game lately, as it became free, and made a new account to play with them because i'm too high ranked and we would get placed against people too strong for my friend to enjoy/get better at the game. I have noticed that the free hero pool seems to be random, great, but this week, we have I believe 3 intelligence heroes, 2 Strength heroes and something like 10 agility. This leads to teams with nearly all carries every game and makes the game hard for teamwork, and doesn't mirror the standard mid-level well organized parties and split roles in a team.

My suggestion is to have 5 heroes of each primary stat instead of 15 scatted in all stats, What do you guys think?

I got a better suggestion. Make your friends PAY for the game and let S2 REMOVE this free to play ****!

its 20$ as i see like 110DKK compare to the 200DKK 60 Day wow play time.

^ S2 kinda wants to make money, and from "experience", it works out better with a F2P model.

Besides, all of S2's games in the past also eventually went F2P, this change was eventually going to happen.

F2P is a legit business model. I'm thankful that they are grandfathering us in and giving us future heroes for free. No grudge there.

But yes, the pool should be more evenly distributed.

My vote for the 15 heroes:
2 legion AGI
2 legion STR
2 legion INT
2 hellbourne AGI
2 hellbourne STR
2 hellbourne INT
3 completely random

Just make 3 - 6 free heroes (Pyromancer, Slither, Accursed, Glacius, melee agi, str ganker/carry) and make the rest random. If there would be "solid" heroes that are ALWAYS free, it would be much easier to get better teams.
