I fail to see how this is even remotely similar to battle royale. 4v4 in an RTS does not equate to battle royale.

I guess you don’t know who RecorRuiner2.0 is^^

okay a TL;DW for you:
He basically kills of 3 out of 4 enemy player with only his archmage. Then he does Teamkill all of his allies, and then he finishes of the last enemy.

it was a match between 8 players, but only 1 player won while using a single unit.

At some point both, the enemy team and the allies all tried to kill his archmage, chasing him all over the map, while not fighting each other xD

Starcraft had moba ums way before warcraft had dota. It’s called Aeon of Strife.

I was a huge 4v4 WC3 player back in the day. It wasn’t really Battle Royale. I mean, maybe it had elements of it at the end when the gold mines were tapped and everyone’s armies were dead, leaving you to duke it out with your level 8 heroes. That wasn’t really battle royale though

We should have some sort of AI moba’s that are equivalent to WoW’s dungeons and raids

Battle Royal is also a pretty good movie

Warcraft 3 gave life to DOTA.
DOTA gave life to LOL and DOTA2.
LOL and DOTA2 killed off the RTS genre.

Sad really.

Oh well, at least we have HOTS to relive our Warcraft hero adventures until Reforged comes out in 2024.

Battle Royale is slowly dying IMO.

Look at Fortnite and Apex Legends.

Occasionally fun to play but the craze is slowly dying. Whats is being replaced by?
