It's pretty fun, but its very much a MOBA. Matches usually take too long(30+ min), csing/laning is not really enjoyable (to me). The potential for massive power differentials based on items and balance. The shooting mechanics are pretty simplistic, though seeing how the game actually works (as a MOBA) that is probably a good thing.

It will be good probably for people who are already fans of traditional MOBAs with these elements. I'll play occasionally with my friends. Needs more heroes
