And how do you feel about the game?

I like it, because to me 20 minute laning phases in MOBA's are stupid.

I also like the depth of the universes they have as far as potential characters goes.

I loved the game and it reminds me a lot of the battlegrounds from my World of Warcraft day ,but I just can't justify getting invested in it.

The business model might be the worst of all Mobas. If it wasn't for the blizzard tag, this game would of be Dead on Arrival.

Free with the ability to purchase characters with real money or gold earned while playing. Also, characters rotate on a weekly free to play trial.

Its a good "objective" based game.

While a Moba, it isn't like League AT ALL. Totally different IMO.

I like it for the short quick games, instant action and the team based combat.

I haven't played it, but I've heard the business model is really bad. Characters cost $10 a piece apparently, which I would never even consider paying

I play Smite, another MOBA, but with a 3rd person perspective instead of a top down perspective. I really love the feel of it compared to League. Plus it's completely free in every way. It's free to play, and characters can be bought using in game currency earned by playing the game. I play a game or two a day and I earn over a character per week, plus I can play the free rotations as well. I really enjoy it and it has the classic laning and jungle mode, but it also has more casual versions of the main mode to offer some variety, and those modes are very popular. I'd recommend it to anyone playing HotS

The characters and skins cost more IRL money than any other mobas. The rate in which you get in-game currency is also lower than other mobas. I don't believe any other moba come close to the Hots 50% in game currency increase for new heros.

If you are new to Mobas, I recommend Dota 2 or Smite. You get all the champions for free in Dota 2. Smite gives you the option to purchase all the champion that they ever release for 30$.
