also got one more thing that I think deserves a comeback if mutations become obsolete or removed. that being the MOBA system that xenos had that could let them modify their character slightly by sacrificing other stats twice, such as runner sacrificing health/plasma for even faster mobility or defenders sacrificing damage/plasma for even more armor. xenos also had an “in progress” perk tree that queen can buy for points by killing specific marines.
(sadly it was never used or finished but is still technically in the game?)
and queen also being able to sacrifice everyone’s stats for a global hive effect, that usually being plasma for more health. and queen mains always sacrificing their own plasma or damage for faster mobility and wreaking havoc for a solid year.
(an honorable mention being that praetorians used to have an ability that let them spit out sticky resin and wouldn’t have a time limit like gardener drone’s do)
