I haven’t made a new thread weekly exactly, but with the amount of activity it might need to be fortnightly, here’s another recommendations thread.

Let everyone know below a game (6+ months old), that you have played recently, are currently playing or intend to play soon.

    Heroes of the Storm! Pick one out of over 80 heroes to fulfill your role in a team of 5 and try to destroy the other team‘s core.

    Blizzard‘s take on the MOBA genre is something I come back to from time to time.

    The character and map design is awesome and one match allows you to level up your character to counter enemy strategies and be become the kind of healer/tank/mage/dps/supporter your team needs.

    It‘s awesome. And free.

      How’s the learning curve for someone who is somewhat familiar with MOBAs, but has never played HotS before?

        The game offers a short tutorial and an AI mode. There you can get familiar with the first heroes that are available to you and the maps. Find a character you like and mess around with his abilities and skill trees. You have all the time in the world.

        It‘s considered a beginner friendly MOBA. You have your standard attack, 2-4 special abilities and an heroic attack at level 10 (20 is the max level).

        As soon as you feel ready to play competitively, there are several game modes available for you.

        Since it’s free just give it a try. Becoming good in this game is part of the journey!
