What is your background? MOBA or FPS? (aussie.zone)

Just curious what the demographic here is like. The game seems to be appealing, at least for now, to both crowds. I am an FPS player whereas my friend is a ex-MOBA player and we usually struggle to find games we can enjoy equally. So far we are playing Deadlock a lot together though, and I am more hooked than I expected to be when I first realised this was primarily a MOBA.

If you started playing this game for a different reason feel free to share as well.

If I had to pick, I'd say FPS. I tend to not like point and click gameplay, so the only MOBA I ever enjoyed before deadlock was Paragon. I've always understood the basics of MOBAs but LoL and Dota were just never for me.

But I'm also not huge into FPS games. There has to be some form of ridiculousness to a shooter for me to like it.

Deadlock brings some of that. I think the newness is leaving match making for people who would be in what ever tier I exist in a weird place of either being rolled or rolling most of the time. But that will get better.
