This is a MOBA thread. About moba characters. I've tried searching on the forums about something similar and nothing would come up, so here I am. Who are your favorite/dreaded characters in any Moba? Feel free to post scores.

From Smite:

My favorite is Bakasura. Concept art is shown here(because it's the best pictures I could find of him when I'm too lazy to just screenshot him ingame.)


I love this character mainly because the way he looks, plays and feels. The hunched blue figure, with a red hood covering what seems to be a dark fog. How he scrapes his blades on the ground, yelling CARVED BEEF and empowering his butcher blades to rip those overpowered tanks apart. How he leaps behind enemy lines with a 360, reveals his head and massacres everyone with his AoE cone basic attacks, then eats a minion and chases down survivors. The best part is, I feel as if I'm hunting the enemy players. With that feeling I rarely die, which is awesome as Bakasura is rarely played, and when he is played I find people feed with him.

Last one on the left. Arena is basically team deathmatch. This was the most recent match I could find.
I eat because I'm hungry, I'm hungry because I eat. It's a vicious cycle, I know. [https://account.hirezstudios.com/smitegame/stats.aspx?match=8014649]
-Bakasura


I would have made an entry about Guan yu but it got a bit ranty. So I deleted it.

Step foward, fire away. Who do you love/hate in your MOBA of choice?

Edit: Fixed broken links.

From what I've played of LoL, I enjoyed Skarner.
Also Clunk from Awesomenauts is pretty fun.

Leona and ezreal of course, both from lol and they're both awesome, leona can just zenith blade in, stun the entire enemy team, then stun the carry a little longer, and then make it out without breaking a sweat.

and ezreal is quite possibly the best sniper in the entire world, thanks to his spam able q and his global ult.

i also really like phantom lancer in dota 2, "we outnumber them, we out number them all." quite accurate description of him by himself, he just mashes down anybody trying to take him out with his clones.

*Post overhaul*

This guy right here :3 THE MIGHTY NAUTILUS!



His story is a sad one indeed, left for dead by his crew mates when he was being pulled into the ocean by a mysterious black ooze. The ooze encased him within the suit and clouded his memory. He seeks revenge by fighting in the league of legends to eventually gain the information which he so desires. (The names of the sailors that condemned him)

He is an absolute powerhouse when it comes to laning as he has high presence, he is effective at farming because his passive lets him get the extra damage on minions easily. He can also deny enemies farm because he can just use his passive to stun (as well as chunk their health) anyone heading for minions. In team fights this guy is awesome, with AOE abilities, shields and enough CC to make entire teams fumble around like idiots (4 out of 5 of his abilities are crowd control) he is invaluable when in the right hands (Mine).

Oh by the way anyone that is on EU west, would you want to team up? :3 (Not for ranked as it is bad for my sanity)

Teemo, from League of Legends.
I really love playing as him. And he's quite cute, as well. Scurrying around and poisoning everyone. Fun, fun, fun!
Leona is pretty awesome, as well.

Fiddlesticks from LoL for me. The moment I tried him out I was sold. I just love the way he plays and how he's an all-rounder, able to solo mid, duo bot, or go jungle. Not just the way he plays though, I was drawn to the concept behind him as well, and his appearance.

A close second is probably Garen. Partially because of that whole DEMACIA!! meme, but also because he's quite easy to play once you get some gear. I play him when I just want to casually destroy some bots. :p

I love playing Malzahar on LoL. He is such a fun character to play, he can take nearly anyone in lane if he is played right and will dominate most of the roster be they squishy bursters or tanky bruisers. If he manages to get off his full combo on someone and they are not playing Galio then they are pretty much dead, especially once he gets his items.

The other is Swain also know as LoLs king of DoTs. I love dominating my lane with him then pretending to slowly fail at running away when the jungler comes to gank only to turn around the moment they are out of turret safety range and get a double kill. With Season 3 his weakness of high mana costs his near solved by the now cheap Tear of the Goddess, he can also stack it's passive pretty quickly with his ult.
This is Swain we are talking about so anyone who has fought him in LoL knows that infinite mana = infinite health sustain and near unkillable without ignite. Swain is my favorite champion in LoL

This guy, no question. He's the resident BADASS of the cast. He dances to Hare Hare Yukai with zero shame. That's the ultimate test of manliness right there. Anyone saying you need battle armour and arms the size of trucks to be manly needs to recognise that this guy is literally wearing JEANS AND A T-SHIRT (plus too many belts) in a battleground. Zero fucks given. Manliness +1

Oh and look at those Swag Goggles. The swaggiest goggles ever made. Ezreal is the best Swag Warrior on Swag Warrior's Rift.

[sub]I'll stop now...[/sub]

As for gameplay... SNIPES ALL DAY SON! He is definitely my favourite carry because his abilities are actually WORTH something late game instead of being like say, Caitlyn when stopping to Q once can lose you like 3 autoattacks. Oh and Arcane Shift is giggles. It burns mana early on but nothing is more hilarious than jumping a wall on 100HP leaving 3 guys jumping on their hats in rage.

Oh and Irelia. But really, who doesn't love Irelia? She casually walks through entire front lines onto squishy baby carries with no fear. Not even in the Olaf way where he does this full on battle charge. She just walks/teleports in and never stops moving. Whereas Olaf has to pussy out after 10 seconds because his Man Mode ran out and "oh no! A stun! UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".

I really like Annie in League, even though I'm awful with her. Her quotes are great.

"I'm rubber and you're... on fire!"
"What's your favorite aminal? A BEAR?!"

To play, I prefer Sona. I'm trying to get better with Nami, too. My brain just isn't wired for MOBA games. I don't attack people well. I prefer to sit back and heal.

League of Lag Legends: Varus
I snipe, I backdoor, I never miss. Of course, I don't like playing the team's Carry, so it's a mixed blessing.
But god-DAMN is it fun to line up his Q.
Runner up: Lux/Ezreal (I am a fan of skillshots, but Lux has that Singularity, which I loved well before they buffed it)

(And yes, I do enjoy Windrunner in DotA/2 for the same reason)

DotA/2: Invoker
-I remember when he had something like 3 dozen spells. But the "simplified" list is great fun, and much less game-breaking.
He's versatility-incarnate, able to roll as virtually any role save for Main-Tank.

All-Invoker All-Mid is hilarious chaos.

*Mains Swain* Good to see another Bird-fan, but anyways,
In Smite my favorite would have to be Hades, works well with my playstyle.

given the only MOBA i've played is LoL, it's pretty much restricted to that roster, and even then I pick characters who have a design i like over which s 'best'.

I have

Kayle - want her Aether wing skin
Ahri - Foxfire skin
Shyvana - want her Ironscale skin
Cassiopeia - want ether Sidewinder or Siren, haven't decided yet
Ashe - (cause she was super cheap) only one I don' feel like I need an Alt skin for.
Katarina - want the Mercinary skin

mind you i suck horribly with all of them, but I like these ones so far

Drow Ranger is best hero.

She was my very first hero when I started playing DotA 2. She's very easy to play, with only 2 real skills to use in battle. Perfect for a newbie.
