Mason — Raging Marksman

SSR · Tank · Attack · Physical damage

Why Mason matters

Most accessible SSR hero, given free early. Excels in PvE/campaign. First hero with SSR-to-UR promotion (Season 1). Invest in Zombie Cleaner first for PvE value; the passive buffs back-row Tank heroes vs monsters, so it pays out only in PvE and contributes nothing in PvP — which is why he is rated a tier lower there and why Stetmann keeps the PvP slot.
