What the hell is Heroes & Heralds mode? I need to collect Ability Cards? Is this DLC free? And is it available for PSN & XBL? I don't know the answer to any of these really, but you can check out what I posted in the story.

From Capcom

The free Heroes & Heralds mode DLC for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 on PS3 and X360 is available today for download.  In addition, Capcom is pleased to confirm that the Heroes & Heralds mode will be included standard in the upcoming PlayStation Vita version of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. A new trailer highlighting the PS Vita-specific features is now available for download on the press site.

Heroes & Heralds is a separate mode that adds new and customizable features to online and offline gameplay. Players will choose between two factions – Heroes or Heralds– and will engage in a series of battles with the opposing side to help save the world or take it over. Gameplay in the Heroes & Heralds mode will be altered through the acquisition of Ability cards that range from basic alterations (speed boost) to game-changing, combo enhancing powers (invisibility or ability to pass through projectiles). Cards can be used in online and offline versions of the Heroes & Heralds modes as well as the training mode. Ability cards are based on classic Marvel and Capcom characters.

this seems unnecessary. All the time spent in doing this should have gone towards more characters and costumes.

I was playing this for a while now, and I noticed that there were some hidden changes in the balance. it'll be worth finding out what changes has been done. other that that, I've been playing the new Heroes and Heralds mode, collecting alot of cards, and trying to play an online battle, although I keep finding people wit ridiculous cards.
