Played more, medivac has almost no chance of making it into late game, and for the simple reason of being too weak AND not having any skills useful enough to keep the tank for. Look at antigrav or heli, both are unique and both are played into late game more frequently than others. Medivan can go max speed (with speed boost) and looks cool. In a challenging game, medivac was decent enough up to about 20mins, then a tank change was needed.
Consider making certain levels of a skill special, rather than having a linear pattern. For example, level 5 of a tank's ulti can only be gotten later in the game, so you should make the increase larger. This way, there will be a reason to keep a weak tank longer. All of medivan's skills are like this, +100dmg per level, +100hp for decoys per level etc. As much as i want to play it into late game, its gets rather dull.
