Arena of Valor is Incredible

I used to play league of legends a ridiculous amount.. I drew tired of the game after many years and thought I would never return to the MOBA realm again. Arena of Valor is refreshing, and playing it with the pro controller is game changing. I LOVE the control of the joystick and skill shots. It works so well.

Message me if you want to play.

If you missed out on the mobile promotion they had where every hero you had on mobile netted you 10k gold you missed out on a good chunk of gold you could’ve made. I made about 150k and still havesome of it saved just waiting for them to push out all the heroes since it’s a huge bunch.

Eh I tried it but it didn’t hold for me. I think it felt too generic of a copy for me.

All the portraits make the heroes look the same with the same screaming expression, the awkward phrases like”the sun is my bow and the sky is my arrow” reeks of something that probably makes sense in Chinese but wasn’t properly translated.

Even “Hey! Listen!”, which would normally come off as a nod to Ocarina of Time just feels copied since it’s a fairy.

Nothing in the game feels inspired. It all feels ham fisted together as if the person who made it didn’t love what he was making and just threw a bunch of abilities and art into something that doesn’t thematically fit together.

However, if you have fun playing it, that’s all that matters. It just wasn’t for me.

I want to love it but the 45fps REALLY bothers me. They can make it 60, or 30 and it would have been fine but 45 is just weird to look at for too long.

As a dota player from way back, I have also been loving this casual alternative ;>

I'll send you a message with my ingame now and you can add me, if the timing works out maybe we can play sometime!

Would be nice if you could get into a game in Australia. It would be great to get vainglory as I never have the same matchmaking issues.

I like that the matches only take 10-25 minutes, and I absolutely love gaming on the switch these days over any other medium. The champions are fun, and tend to be balanced as all overpowered, compared to some mobas where everyone feels too weak.

Unfortunately, they had a horrendous launch, which I feel will be hard to recover from. I don't crash as much after playing 5 games in a row, but as someone in platinum, I still see the same bronze people in my games if we re queue after a match. I really don't think many people stuck around after trying it when the game launched horribly, and the player pool feels shallow.

It's a shame, because the game is truly fun.

Maybe, but it won't accept my name since it has "damn" in it. So I guess I'll play other games.

yup cloned by their own company. ikr. Even tho tencent owns league and all they still discuss things. they let league be for pc only. But tencent went and made arena of valor of mobile, so a rip off. But Riot itself is still mad about it, but ya can't do anything about it since tencent parent company and all~~

I heard they didn’t want a mobile LoL so they had to make AoV, and how else are you gonna cash in on that sweet mobile market?

For this game, or for every game? does this mean you haven't played any other shooter other than wolfenstein 3D from 1992, now that would be hardcore gaming.
