Hunter was peddling that shit before LoL was ever announced. The term is retarded on so many levels if people would just think about it. There is nothing massive about a DotA/HoN/LoL game, there's nothing that remotely resembles an arena other than the confines of the map, and the other two terms are generic interchangeable words.

Yep, I can confirm that pedophile swindler did come up with the name. I also agree it doesn't make any sense for the Genre.


Neither does AoS, DotA or anything else that relies on someone to know a previous title to understand it. Then again it's hard for the genre to have a descriptive name. Bird's eye view avatar based combat game (BEVABC?) doesn't really have a good ring to it.

If you want to exclude Bloodline champions from the genre I suppose you could call them something like Base Pushing Games.

Why do we need a term in the first place? If someone asks, I'll just go its a 5v5 team game with role-playing elements to it.

So World of Warcraft Arena?

Really you don't need a name, but people are going to use one anyways because that's the way people are.

In a nutshell, what did he do? I was one of the first members on his earlier attempts on making a DotA community site, gamebend or something but beyond that I haven't heard much about him.

Was hunter the guy who was pretending to fund honcast for a while or was that someone else?

And yeah, the best genre name for it really would be something like rpgrts, as it's basically an rts made off of the fundamentals of an rpg, with tower defense elements

can be rearranged to team-rp-strategy, or trps (or is that to similar to x-person-shooter)

yes HunteR was all that, and a pedophile.

Oh yeah, that reminds me of the neva shitstorm that happened when Vievi was outed.

Some of those people acted like nothing was ever wrong with a 'multi-million dollar' company not being able to pay out for its own tournaments.

The sad part is that when DotA 2 comes out, this sorry excuse for a human being will be back in some form.
