Vainglory is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video game both developed and published by Super Evil Megacorp for iOS and Android. Designed for mobile platforms, it is a simplified version of the PC-based genre wherein two opposing teams of three players fight to destroy the enemy base by controlling the path between the bases, which is lined by turrets and guarded by enemy minions. Outside the path, players battle for control points that supply extra resources. The game was released for iOS on November 16, 2014, after being soft-launched for over half a year. The Android version was released on July 2, 2015.

Links (I recommend watching the trailer and reading the review):

Note: Having played Heroes of Order and Chaos/Fates Forever before, (another two famous mobile MOBAs), I have to say that Vainglory is 5 times (maybe more) better than those. Graphics, gameplay, basically everything.

Of couse, it might not be able to beat certain PC MOBAs (you know what/who I'm talking about), but it's still a good game. ^_^

There's also the great friendly devs as well as an informative forum and game guide.[edit_reason]Added stuff[/edit_reason]

I have to say that this is an excellent MOBA. (Thanks tazzy for bringing it up months ago :P ). Sadly, I don't often have enough time for matches, so I only play rarely, but it is wonderful. I also have two accounts in different areas, so please do hit me up if you want to play :)

Wow, I was half expecting this to be a tower-defence game. I'm glad I was wrong :lol: I'll definitely make sure I'm one of the first to get this, it looks amazing!

Says the guy who still has his SEA account untouched... :P
Eh, do you think you can still make me a EU account, would be interesting to see their skill against mine. (I'm almost in the top tier here, just check out my sig :cool: )


Anyway, another key thing to note, even though the game is free, it isn't pay to win at all. ^_^

Well the last time I played with you tazzy, I was SAW defending the road against all three of their players, whilst you and the other guy were farming levels, so we lost a load of turrets before we even got Minion Mines open :glare: :lol:

As a note: I generally play as SAW or Krul and deal with the road/lane and try and push up whilst the others farm the minion mines and snipe, occasionally, the enemy heroes. It works most of the time :P

I could play SAW against all 3 of those players. Just hide behind the turret and use suppressing fire everytime the enemy comes close, roadie run if they come even closer. :P :cool: :puppyeyes: Saw got a buff last update too.

Here are some tips: http://www.vaingloryfire.com/vainglory/wiki/heroes/saw/guides

And you don't lane with Krul :P

What skill tier are you in?

Ps. Oh and if anyone wants to play with me. Tell me lol.

Sure you could...yet for some reason you don't...Did he? I need to get round to playing him more...

I wouldn't lane with Krul if the other members in my team actually did try and defend the lane...the last match I played as Krul, I had to lane because our SAW tried to jungle :facepalm:

Skill tier? No idea, I barely play :lol:

Maybe after my exams I'll hit you up :)

SAW isn't that viable in higher tiers, especially considering the rising amount of quick moving heroes who would kill him the moment he uses suppressing fire. I actually haven't seen anyone use SAW since last update up here. :P

One does not lane with Krul...no matter what. :facepalm:
You should have invaded their jungle, they'd be 3 of you against 2 of them. (Assuming their laner is too dumb to go help.)

:glare: SAW is pro :glare: Clearly you just have to be a master to use him :lol:

Their guys kept switching to the lane as soon as we got into the jungle, and then take a turret, so I laned to keep them back as much as possible...
