Rather than just a regular hero, how about a 7th player who sits in virtual reality as the Patron for your team looking down on the city
Their gameplay would be something like Abathur from Heroes of the storm, working at a macro level to supportt the team objectives.
Skills:
1. Candlemaker - Deploy an additional trooper to a lane, or redirect a trooper from one lane to another.
2. Boon - bestow a temporary buff on a team mate, these may be upgraded similar to the itemshop
3. Avatar - take control of a walker or the base patron use their attacks directly, like swatting at flies
4. Fateweaver - edit the connections between teleporters and jump pads to allow unexpected rotations
This would be a seperate game mode in the main menu, with the patron added to the hero preference screen.
This idea seems like its just begging to be tried. The patron is just a head and arms, just like we are in VR. This is Valve, the masters of VR, surely they must have prototyped this concept at some point? Look at this cheeky smile.. the patron knows its a good idea!
