It seems like an even more stripped down MOBA (which were already stripped down RTS's). I don't really understand the appeal here because you actually don't do anything, you just watch..
So... what's up with this game?

It's like drafting a deck in a card game.
But yeah it's so simple you can play it by Alt-Tabbing into it every couple of minutes. It needs to be faster and have a larger piece limit perhaps.

>stripped down MOBA
do you not know what MOBA means? how the fuck is autochess anything like a fucking MOBA

Have you played?

Because it's literally league of legends heroes fighting each other but without the ability to control them yourself
Jaxon Brown
I haven't, I just watched streamers for a bit and I couldn't actually see them doing anything. They were just staring at the monitor watching. What exactly do you do in this game besides draft heroes?
Ethan Nelson
one of the soul calibers had darth vader in it so its literally a battlefront game
Brayden Lewis
I say stripped down because elements of the game are removed (i.e. the control, creeping, itemization, etc) whilst keeping the fundamental battle aspect (heroes combating each other). Cool fallacy though.
Zachary Lopez
heroes battling each other is not a MOBA-specific element though
the game itself has very little gameplay and depth so far, and doesn't offer much interaction
James Evans
You don't convince me.
If anything auto-chess games are closer mechanically to tabletop games since you are dealt 5 pieces per turn and all players share the same pool.
Luis Morris
I'm so happy Riot's coined term "MABA" didn't stick. Fuck those faggots.

do you actually know what a moba is (you don't)
Evan Rivera
It's nothing MOBA at all, he's just baiting
Wyatt Richardson
Yes a moba is a stripped down RTS in which you only control 1 unit. Now with autochess it's even more stripped down so that you don't even control a single unit. Lmao imagine being the target of this braindead genre.
Isaac Perez
Case and point above ^
Look how desperate for (you)s, not from me buddy ;)

isn't this game just cannibalizing the league audience?
with a premium game you can flood the market as much as you want with a consistent audience, in a f2p game it just means they're spending less money on A and more on B

It's garbage for tcgfags. I played it for a few hours and already got first place in every single game because it's puddle deep like all tcg crap. Especially since this one has a broken interest mechanic

WHY IS MOBA SO POPULAR IT'S NOT INTERESTING, IT'S NOT CASUAL FRIENDLY, WHY
Lucas Hill
When you think about it, Moba is just chess for brainlets where you only control one piece and it has more flashing lights and ""action"" to make it more appealing to dumb gamers. If anything, autochess is an upgrade.
Ethan Rodriguez
It's a mobile tier game. Go look up how popular mobile games are.

yes generally that is now streaming platforms work
