The lack of mesmers in HA is part of the unspoken agreement amongst all HA players to run easy to play but terrible builds, so that they can farm faction with less effort. Mesmers take effort and skill to be effective. It's not unlike the /rolling in HvH.
That said, there's at least one hex pressure gimmick build that uses a mesmer, with panic as elite. Run that. Alternatively, HA with guildies, in a balanced build.
If you're doing pickups though, you can't really choose what to run. You just have to buy into the most popular gimmick and roll that, which probably won't involve mesmers. So, just put the mesmer away for now, and save him for GvG.
