Masked Heroes (M·Heroes) are a subclass of "Hero" monsters used by Jaden Yuki in the manga.
So far, the archetype consists of 6 Normal Monsters and 3 Transformation Monsters. It favors a fairly straight-forward Beatdown strategy, with "Goka" gaining 100 ATK for every Hero in the Graveyard, and "Vapor" being unable to be destroyed except by battle.
While the "Elemental Heroes" are said to be based off of American superheroes, it can also be assumed "Masked Heroes" are a salute to Japanese Super Sentai or Kamen Rider heroes. Especially since "Kamen" means "Masked" as well as sharing several similarities such the recurring "form changing" and transformations of Kamen Riders.
