It does, but presents it poorly.

A skill roll in HERO is basically the same 11- modified by a Skill
OCV. They just don't say that. For example one could consider Stealth
14- instead as Stealth OCV 3.

Opposed Skill rolls in HERO are a simple rolled skill vs. rolled
skill, with player rolling the most under their base roll winning.
That basically falls out to be roll 11- + Skill OCV - Skill OCV in
concept, and I think even in math it would be at least close enough.

Rather than explain all that, HERO instead goes with it's much
simplier default explanation.
