    Anyone else gotten a beta key? Been playing for about a month now.

    Pretty fun to be honest even though it's been getting a lot of unjustified hate by those I suspect haven't even played it yet. Same setup as your typical MOBA, but has a variety of maps with key objectives that you need to work as a team to accomplish to gain an advantage. No item shop, and your team levels up as a whole instead of individually.

    There are certain maps where you cannot live without a tank

    PVP could get annoying when they pick random guys who are either too good or too inexperienced

    I like it better than LoL. Overwatch looks like it's going to be awesome

    My observations after playing this:

    1) The game is fun.
    2) It is pretty easy to pick up and understand what you are supposed to do
    3) it is difficult to master what to do.
    4) I totally suck, but I'm still having fun.

    I may jump in and play a little. They give you a cardback in Hearthstone after you hit level 12 in Heroes.

    I have had an account for about eight months, and I play it every now and then. I prefer Dota 2 as far as moba's go - but it is pretty fun and better for more casual players.

    My comp lags hard on HotS, but it's fine when running League. I've only played HotS twice (the tutorial, which didn't lag, and then an actual quickmatch which lagged hard), so I auto-don't like this game.

    I tried HotS during the beta and during retail (yesterday).
    It just doesn't compare to Dota 2, imo.
