So like most heroic modes, this one is just a redux of the campaign mode. Honestly I think it's slightly easier than the campaign mode, but YMMV. I didn't play the Shroom Game again - see the campaign mode post for an explanation.
Impressions
Since it's so much like the campaign mode not a lot changed here. I was disappointed to have to give Durax a 'B' for this map, however. Getting through with him requires rather taxing micromanagement of his clones, and even then it's still harder than A-class heroes.
Vez'nan was not able to redeem himself here, pulling another 'B', even though Soul Burn is fantastic for dealing with Fungus Breeders - it prevents them from spawning Munchshrooms on death.
Other than that, Catha improved from a 'C' to a 'B' while Xin went from an 'A' to a 'B', and everybody else did the same as in campaign mode.
Final Grades
- Eridan - B
- Arivan - C
- Catha - B
- Reg'son - A
- Prince Denas - A
- Razz and Rags - C
- Bravebark - A
- Vez'nan - B
- Xin - B
- Phoenix - A
- Durax - B
- Lynn - A
- Bruce - A
- Lilith - A
- Wilbur - A
- Faustus - A
Best Choice
I'm declaring this a three-way tie between Phoenix, Bravebark, and Reg'son, all of whom absolutely destroyed this map. Phoenix's AoE abilities again prove priceless in clearing the hordes of mushrooms. Bravebark's immense health coupled with Springsap means he can just body-block all of the Boomshrooms to oblivion. In addition, the cooldown of Branchball synergizes perfectly with the appearance of both Fungus Breeders and Twilight Avengers, and as with Vez'nan's Soul Burn, Branchball prevents the Fungus Breeders from spawning Munchshrooms. As for Reg'son, while Vindicator does not prevent the Fungus Breeder death spawn, his ability to body-block the Boomshrooms and otherwise just never die via Eldritch Heal makes him an excellent choice here too.
