welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks to the top
ten MOBAs of all time
before we begin we publish new videos
every day so be sure to subscribe for
more great content for this list we’re
looking through every mobile online
battle arena or mobile for short that
has graced us throughout history for
those gamers who have been living under
a rock for the past few years a MOBA is
where two teams must face off against
each other to destroy the enemy space
with each team member selecting their
own unique heroes all of which have a
unique set of stats and abilities as
well as their own personality these
mechanics also have to be at the core of
the game itself games like battle born
that feature a MOBA style game-mode on
the sides will be making the cut all
ready to rock
yeah little something right here big guy
oh how did I get it number 10 ear mech
Hertzog is why maybe a name familiar to
RTS players from the 80 to 90 but to
some gamers it was also the first MOBA
in gaming history so it only makes sense
to give it a modern remake one day
Airmech has players piloting their
transforming robots known as well air
max to capture bases build units and
destroy the enemy’s fortress
while airmax started as a simple modern
rendition of the classic it has gone
above and beyond adding new robots game
modes and even ports to modern consoles
using a much more condensed strategic
gameplay with continued support from the
developer Airmech will be kicking or in
this case flying for a long time number
9 strife with Samoa Jarrah filled with
hardcore competitive gamers it can be
hard to find one to just ease into
thankfully as two games felt the same
and created strife with simplified
combat mechanics and changing up
traditional mobile features strife
manages to create a beginner’s MOBA
while still offering fun and intense
gameplay for veterans sharing gold
acquired from minion kills manages to
not only promote teamwork but prevents
new players from falling too far behind
while new features like combat pets help
to set strife apart from the pile of
course this isn’t the only MOBA that fu
games has created
oh yeah a break Paragon
with seemingly everyone jumping on the
mobile bandwagon it was only a matter of
time before Epic Games joins a party
having success with other multiplayer
games like Unreal Tournament and years
of war it seemed only natural for them
to dive into the new competitive
multiplayer scene
Paragon introduces new elements to the
MOBA genre in the form of cards where
players are able to customise loadouts
before the game and utilize the loadouts
while playing with the in-game shop this
allows for a greater focus on the combat
which catalyzes more on your skill at
aiming and mastering just when to use
those ability
number seven Heroes of Newerth before
offering us a more simplistic MOBA
experience with strife as to games
through their own into the ring in the
form of Heroes of Newerth taking heavy
inspiration from defense of the agents
Heroes of Newerth is an homage to the
classic MOBAs taking advantage of new
technology Heroes of Newerth pioneered
certain MOBA features such as stat
tracking leading penalties in-game voice
chat and a user friendly hero selection
say with me utilizing the savage
universe of the previous s2 titles the
heroes and battlegrounds breed more life
and story into the new earth world while
development has shifted to a new studio
Heroes of Newerth continues to be a
welcoming MOBA to those who desire more
of the classics
number six Awesomenauts since so many
MOBAs take an isometric or third-person
perspective competing in the market is
difficult as you really need to stand
out enter awesome not an awesome new
take on the genre TV utilizing a 2d
perspective
Awesomenauts plays more like an action
platformer but still manages to use
traditional mobile elements aside from
the basics often not also manages to
make use of its environment creating
traps pitfalls and other environmental
hazards a feature that many MOBAs lacks
starting out as a mere Xbox Live Arcade
game Awesomenauts has grown to have a
relatively awesome MOBA community all of
its own and it’s 80s cartoon style intro
totally kicks ass

number five defense of the ancient or
dota who would have known that Amon
would eventually lead one of the biggest
gaming phenomenons of the decade well I
suppose the guys who designed the
original counter-strike did but hey
starting out as a mod for the original
Starcraft before transitioning to
Warcraft 3 as just a map many hail this
simple mod at the first spark leading to
the raging fire of the MOBA genre as we
know it many of the core elements that
MOBAs used today such as the three lane
system 5v5 combat unique characters and
mix of PvP and PvP elements can be
attributed to the creation of this mod
while it’s player base has dwindled dota
is still played today and if you
rightfully so as a classic
follow number four heroes of the storm
what do you get when you forcibly grab
various heroes and villains out of their
respective universes and throw them all
together no not you Super Smash Brothers
this isn’t your list this rank belongs
to heroes of storm brought together by
blue Nexus characters from every
Blizzard franchise team up to fight and
take down their enemy’s base as per the
MOU but norm of course the Nexus didn’t
just pull in characters but entire areas

on the block with a funny camera angle
smite state we appeal to action-oriented
gamers has earned it a place amongst the
big boys of the genre number Q dota 2
and a modern take on the mobile that
started it all dota 2 brings back all
the heroes mechanics features and
designs that may be original so great
with its recent addition of underlord
dota 2 has managed to bring back every
hero from the original and while it may
retain a turn from the original new
features like matchmaking hero
descriptions smash spectating voice chat
and a big old graphical overhaul has
kept the game very fresh hot for those
looking for something other than the
classic mode go to choose new custom
game overhaul has allowed all new
community-made maps game modes and so
much more to keep the entire community
entertained for quite a long time that
is for you to decide
number one league of legends if dota

Legends brought the genre into modern
times from the mind of one of the
original creators of depends of the
Ancients League of Legends has become a
global phenomenon while it started as a
close cousin to dota thanks to the three
