Hey, it just seems like the game is trying to keep doms (and brutes) on villain side with the side +special Frenzy provides? Will they bring a frenzy type power to hero side?

It seems unlikely. Heroes all get the same effect with their alignment power, and that is a "selfless" team buff. That's just the heroic way, and the sacrifice you have to make to have a Heroic alignment.

I've switched both brutes and doms to Heroes, and I don't find it particularly limiting. When brutes are the focus of aggro, they build Fury very quickly. The lack of "instant on" Domination is much less convenient, but I have perma-dom on my dominators, so in general it's not much of a problem, especially when you're on a large team and Domination is building quickly.
