may still be in playtests, but the roster of 21 heroes is ready to carve their place upon the MOBA scene. The game seeks to combat popular titles like and with a mixture of classic 6v6 combat and guiding your NPC grunts to destroy enemy lines.

If you're anything like me, you'd rather pick your favorite characters based on how well they control for you and how well you're suited to their playstyle.

If you're stuck on who to try, it's always good to fall back on the best-ranked characters in the current roster.

Valve’s secret hero shooter, which absolutely everyone knows about, has managed to surpass most AAA games with its impressive player count.

When you enter a match, you are not restricted by any specific type of character. You have access to whichever of the 21 heroes you can claim first. Each hero plays well and can be used effectively in a match. However, the higher-tier heroes can prove useful in a wider range of situations than their lower-tier counterparts.
