Yeah... imagine being a new player. Having to learn 4 abilities and how they work. For over 150 characters.

That's 600+ abilities you need to know what they do.

Not even including passive abilities.

By the time you are able to be somewhat competitive in any given game. You'll probably already have moved on from the game after being trashed and stomped on non stop by smurfs leveling their new accounts after being banned for toxicity
