"Heavy" isn't worth the costs

I wonder if getting rid of the pre-deployed medics would make heavies more useful.

Oh, nice one. Maybe something for someone with beta forum access to bring to the developers attention for future maps?

Think of 2v2 as 1v1 with special rules. Then it makes sense for medics to be less valuable as you can only do the common play of create-boost-move in the same turn on half your units instead of all of them as in 1v1.
