Blizzard Entertainment, once the birthplace of the modern MOBA thanks to Aeon of Strife and Defense of the Ancients , tried their hand at creating a MOBA with Heroes of the Storm . Released in June of 2015 at the very height of MOBA popularity, HotS struggled to gain the same kind of following as its larger brethren. Although innovative and containing many changes to the core gameplay that made it both easier to learn and more “fun”, HotS was plagued with poor monetization as well as technical and hero balance issues.
