There is an official Linux client but I wouldn't recommend it unless you want to lose a lot of free time as the game takes over your life. ;)
- yincrash 12y agoDescribing it as a MOBA is probably not super helpful as its predecessor (DoTA in War3) was the predominant definer of the genre. It's a tug of war game where there are two teams that have automated weak NPC units (creep), and the players on each team control a hero character with abilities and spells. The goal is to push the opposing team back to their base and destroy the base.
