That last bit is the most eye-catching element of the new expansion.
I’m happy to say I was wrong in that regard.
If you’re comfy playing as Widow or Cap, you should pick up the particulars rather quickly.
As for the Heroics, Black Panther’s got some cool moves to add to his repertoire.
There’s a lot of variety within each of these trees, too.
Or would you rather they harass your enemies and do either direct or status damage to them?

The choice is yours!
For the Assault Heroic, Black Panther uses the “King’s Mercy” to channel a Vibranium Spear.
(Plus any skill that has “Break Block” instantly has my attention in this game.)

This is all complemented by the hero’s Utilities, including wall-running and perching, double-jumping, and vaulting.
The Ultimate Heroic, however, allows Black Panther to go all-out as Bast’s Chosen.
A pretty versatile power set.

The familiar loot mechanics of the overall game are present here, too, just slightly tweaked, Wakanda-style.
Your adventures as Black Panther will eventually cross paths with the Avengers themselves.
I can’t wait to get into the game and see how the story unfolds.
(And if Santa Klaue arrives this Christmas, I won’t be that mad about it.)
