Even though they’re still a bit unknown to the general public, the last five years have seen the MOBA craze sweep the entire competitive gaming scene, building eSports from a niche, underground scene to receiving coverage on ESPN and awarding multi-million dollar cash prizes at the top conferences for both League of Legends and DotA 2.

The sequel to the originator of MOBAs, Dota 2 was released on PC, Linux, and OS X in 2013. This work examined experiences and perceptions of verbal abuse in an online game, Dota 2, in regard to age. A rising star on the MOBA gaming scene is Smite which has a new take on the genre, with a third-person view making the gameplay significantly different from the more conventional bird-eye view of most other MOBA games.

Players drop new posts in the official forums and subreddit once or twice a week, most of which are very promptly responded to by the official AirMech team.
