You may recall in the last entry that I was speculating whether we would have grades for heroic mode, as well as who would be the next hero to earn their first 'B'. My guess was Nyru or Grimson. Well, we do indeed have grades here, and regarding who it turns out that I was right on both counts - both Nyru and Grimson join Torres in earning 'B's for this map.
This map is a little insulting. Not only is a completely uninteresting redux of campaign mode (a theme in Vengeance and now Alliance), you can use pretty much the exact same build plan with the most minor of tweaks. I don't understand why we're just being given a slightly shorter version of campaign mode. While only 6 waves, it's only 3 minutes shorter than campaign mode on average. I'm really disappointed in Ironhide over this, but at the same time I am happy just to have grades.
Impressions
The 'B' crew get knocked down a grade because it's just not quite as simple finishing the map with them as with other heroes. Torres has his usual speed and DPS problems, Grimson is too flimsy trying to take down the Taskmasters, and Nyru just suffered from poor DPS, as well as the trouble ranged characters tend to have on this map with the Taskmasters due to other mobs interfering and causing them to switch targets.
