MOBAs are all the rage these days. But the hybrid part-action, part-RTS, part-turret defense genre is also so new still that there haven’t been that many great ones yet. So which is your favorite? Are you a League of Legends loyalist? Have you been won over by Smite already? Do you prefer Awesomenauts, the wild…
