She has both early offensive and defensive options which is nice over someone who prefers a certain type of lane situation like defensive tri or whatever. | ||

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/guardians_of_the_galaxy/reviews/ Seriously, his main complaint it that the movie has to much "whimsy" and is to "playful". Yeah, because we need more dark, gritty, brooding movies, because I don't have enough of those fuckers. Did he miss the memo where we were done with those and decided to have fun with our summer blockbusters again? I was really enjoying the 27 reviews and 100% rating. | ||

It's just more recognized and saves me time from typing MOBA/ARTS every time I mention it. I'm hoping it doesn't detract from the article based on terminologies that are near interchangeable. | ||

It should be fine, despite being awful and terrible, MOBA does seem to be the most widely understood name for the genre. | ||

It's a 3rd-person real-time non-persistent (or session-based if you prefer) RPG. Abbreviate that how you will. | ||

Don’t worry, they will be making “dark, moody, grumpy, dresses in black, morally/mentally questionable hero-the movie soon”. Until then the rest of us get some verity in our lives.(I love the Dark Knight movies, FYI, but I’m done for a while). | ||

I liked the avengers and ironman ones too, they're just some fun action movies I have a predisposed negative reaction to guardians of the galaxy tho from what I saw in the trailers it looks atrocious. | ||

Whatever abbreviation you use won't properly distinguish almost any genre these days. So then it boils down to common use really, which MOBA sadly owns. I no longer have any issue with the term being used other than a twinge of sadness that it won I'm pretty sure erik from valve used MOBA to refer to dota without prompting in an interview at TI4. | ||
