Discussion A tweet that has me thinking.

I don’t know if Riot can copy what valve has created with Deadlock. The atmosphere and setting so what I think makes deadlock so enjoyable. Yes the gameplay is amazing and the moba aspects are great but I just don’t think riot will even try to copy valve and make a deadlock clone. What is all y’all’s thoughts.

I mean, Valve never removed the "Thank you, Blizzard" from Dota's credits so who knows.
Blizzard could try to develop the Stadium mode into something more Moba like

I feel like that was their plan but it died too quickly

I feel like Stadium is still doing fine, no?

One thing I will say with Stadium is that they may have shot themselves in the foot trying to adopt a few thing too fast.

And also they did the Moba sin of distancing the items and especially what they look like and what they do with the recent changes.
