Review: Heroes of the Storm | The Toledo Blade

The Blade's Will Harrison: Blizzard has created a fun, easy to learn entry in the MOBA genre that has style and charm to spare. Heroes of the Storm makes excellent use of Blizzard’s most famous characters while providing a compelling competitive experience. Despite a few issues that will irk veterans of the genre, Heroes is already one of the best MOBAs available.

Heroes of the Storm isn't my kind of game, but it sure looks impressive.

I would wholeheartedly recommend trying the tutorial and some matches against the AI if you're on the fence, but like what you see.

A year ago, I was very much anti-MOBA. This game has won me over by doing everything correctly that the rest of the genre has taken for granted.

Thanks for reading!

[3-4-5]

* Dota2's gameplay didn't appeal to me and LoL, I got bored of that after like 2 months.

* Heroes on the other hand, has kept my interest almost daily since I bought into the Beta in January.

* I could NEVER go back to playing a MOBA that had it's games last more than 30 min.

With HOTS, they are between 12-28 minutes for most games and rarely goes over 30.

* It's not Perfect, but it includes characters I actually care about, and not some cheesy purple on purple on purple spirit monster I've never heard of.
