Arena of Valor: 5v5 Arena Game for Android
Great graphics and gameplay but unfortunately it suffers from the free to play business model. Most of the heroes that are worth while (newly released) can be obtained by either a hidden chance mechanism, (very very low) either by paying real money. Also, there's no incentive for active players that do not want to invest real money to stay active due to a cap for how much gold you can earn by playing. The game could learn from other MOBAs out there (league of legends, for example, from which it heavily copies the esthetics by the way) to monetize the cosmetics part of the game not by locking heroes under a pay wall or by limiting the amount of gold you can earn by playing.
Game is an absolute blast.... when it works. I am constantly getting diced in lobbies right before a game starts meaning the game punishes me for something that is server side. I know my Internet connection is fine because I hopped on LoL and discord just to check my ping and it is at a stable 40 whilst this game says I'll have over 500. Because of this it makes it hard to enjoy because of the credibility system. If this issue gets fixed I will change my review to a 5 star because the gameplay is superb for a mobile game and a moba
I do believe this game has a ton of potential. The graphics are good, but when it comes to skins I feel a bit down. It looks like a good majority of them are just recolors, if there were more unique ones, Id definitely spend money. Also try to fix internet issues as well? Im on a samsung perk
The game developers put a lot of effort in customer sastifsction. After reading through severwl different comments and player demands on their ratings, as well as some issues, but then seeing all those things get touched upon in the next update... incredible. I havw bought a few skins to look like a savage with my favorite character and to donate some $$$ cause they deserve it
You need to fix the report system. I played a game where 5v5 3 people where in a team. Me and a friend played the best we could these 3 never gave us back up and they had the nerve to report me. Not to mention gave an insult to me. The system punishes me while they go free? How it that fair?
Some heroes really need to get balanced. For example: Superman, Zephys, Murad, Batman and Wukong. These champions' damage ratio is way too high compared to the other champions. I hope you can make some changes with buffs and nerfs to heroes.. Other than that the game is super fun. I just hit master tier recently and getting the hero ban system was a real surprise! Was a pretty cool introduction. Hope to look forward to more awesome content and keep up the good work! Kind regards
It's pretty good. LoL with URF constantly on, and with absolutely broken characters that would never make it into League. Games take around 12 minutes for a 5v5, and 4-8 minutes for a 3v3. Guilds are set up pretty ok, but a limit on kicks(5 per day) makes it hard to manage 100 people(which my clan has), as many people play for a week and then just drop the game. Even making the limit 10 per day would be helpful. Other than that, it's a great game.
Really nice and nice mobile moba. I still think the jungle roles and dual lane might need some tweaking. But other then that the gameplay is nice. Character design are nicely polish, game mechanics are simple, and the environment is nice. I wish the environment followed a theme or something because it just looks throw together as for the sake of the moba. I do have a problem with the servers, causing the lag and sometimes app closing (but I've seen a huge improvement since the first day it came out) but it's been a while since then. Really like this moba. I would highly recommend it to a friend
Game is fun. But it crashes and lags way too often. I have constant full LTE service on my Note 5, and I'm constantly crashing out of ranked matches and lagging for no apparent reason. This has resulted is skewed stats, and losses for my team in ranked matches. It's ridiculous. Fun, but aggravating.
The one thing I have to say about this game is the connection issue. When I go into a match there sometimes seems to be server issues then I am kicked out. Then my credibility score goes down. I find this really annoying. Then the game tries to reconnect me into the game but I am atuck on the loading screen and when I try and re enter the app I am just back to loading screen so then I am here waiting for like 15-18 minutes waiting to get back into a game. If this keeps happening there is honestly no reason for me ro keep this app. Besides that it is a good game
Nice moba even though i dont like other mobas, lots of heroes, dont buy Lucky draw with real money, better to buy what u want than try their rigged wheel that makes u loose hundreds of dollars,,, many characters, good game overall, i play everyday. Remove the new sidebars then il change my rating. .. Hate it... On note 8
Best moba, I'm a big league player and this is quite nice! Characters are broke and like cooldowns are very small but it's still fun! One thing that you could really work on though is match making, it's like sometimes I get paired with people who haven't ever touched this game even though we're in a ranked.
The game is great, the champions great, the servers...... umm could be better. I have business internet and I play some games at 60 ping but then some games I get 200-400 ping and it's unplayable. Maybe they should not connect me to other countries servers and just keep me here in North america.
I got locked out of my account for no reason. It says my device is in use on another device, however this is linked to my facebook which shows no other devices being used. In other words its not true. I have spent money on this game and will NOT change my review until this is fixed. Absolutely nonsense. Don't tell people to link facebook accounts if it breaks your game.
I was really enjoying this game, but the lag ruins the experience for me. Playing a match, then getting reported and losing creditability because both data and wifi had 200 to 500 ms? That was the last straw. I tolerated the lag, but this just puts a bad taste in my mouth. In short, I will be uninstalling this game because the regular lagging is taking a toll on my gaming experience. When I first started playing I noticed little lag, but as time has gone on, it has gotten worse. Thank you for your time.
Badly balanced. Every game has the same few heros in common. Games are repetitive because the same heros are always chosen and the devs just don't notice the absurd choice and win rate?? I only play this when Mobile Legends is capped and I hate myself enough to open it. Won't waste my money here, that's for sure.
Best Moba on this platform hands down. For all the people who are complaining they cant log in after the update its because the SERVER IS UNDER MAINTENANCE as stated in multiple places. If you spent more time reading and less time complaining youd of seen that.
Awesome game... but the highlighting and telling me where to go in the menu is annoying. I finish a match with my friend and I'm unable to invite him back because the game is forcing him to open the ranked play menu. Also ranged characters are super broken and overpowered.
Batman is tooo OP, that is really unfair... You are playing good and you are getting up in Ranking but then some enemy Batman comes and you cant do anything. Could you do Batman a little bit less OP? I just raged because that is unfair, i almost hit my Phone... :/ Then i will give 5 Stars.
After update now I have to bezels on the sides and can't even take them off. Considering that we use the map for the same function . I won't be playing till this is taken or be able to take them off in options. Thank you.
The game is fine, but i hate how ranked works. Why do I get paired with people who are Gold IV while im Platnium II? Always results in a loss. Even more rage inducing is when people join a ranked match and go afk. I still lose rank even though it was 4v5 or 3v5 sometimes. Please correct this....
My only problem is I have heard things of heros like Tel'Annas and Batman, but they seem to not have been released. I was wondering if there was anyone who is able to clear this up for me. Otherwise I LOVE THIS GAME!
The reason for the low rating is because after this last update, the game is completely unplayable for me due to massive lag. Before the update I didn't receive any lag and it ran perfectly smooth. I don't know what you guys did, but it broke the game for me.
Worth the space and time. I see myself playing until further notice. Very similar to LOL yet on a phone. Communication and Mic options are cool but I have yet to actually use it because most players right now aren't using it...maybe? Over all, it's a good game. And this is coming from a person who cut back and stoped playing and picking up games so I can be a responsible adult.
WiFi needs to be fixed. You say 40 seconds for prep but I only get 10 (says 40 but it's not) then I start a whole minute late anyways. Game will disconnect sometimes or freeze and in Ranked that's just the worst for not just you but who ever else thinks your doing it intentionally. Over all better then L.O.L in my opinion cause I'm new to MOBA games maybe but there's just better integration.
Great game but people are horrible. Almost every 5v5 match I lose in I get reported by a player because they need someone to blame and me being a marksman means that I am not in he thick of battle, and then I'm an open target "being Afk" when really I'm right at the edge of the screen shooting at the enemy from cover.
Wow you guys need to fix that report system. I got reported by 3 people by saying end the game. Because my team can't organize a team fight. This is the worst report system I ever witness.
Absolutely love this game! Fell in love from the start. I am a long time Tencent fan and I'm a little bummed that the mobile version doesn't allow me to earn QQ rewards. I'm glad to see Tencent releasing games in the West and I'm glad this game came to Nintendo Switch!
Love the game, really fun to play. Only 1 thing i hate is what the fu** is the point of reporting a player if they get no punishment anyway??? I just finished a match with a player who kept going afk and they get away with it?! Punishment free? While i get to lose my rank? Fix your reporting system.
This game has the worst controls out of all mobile mobas.. every time you try to attack it dosnt target correctly.. it will not stop moving when u stop.. sometimes it dosnt even move at all. Using abilities is 50/50.. sometime they work.. most of the time u die because they are non responsive. Please don't delevope anymore games. This is absolute trash. Every other moba is better
This game is absolutely excellent. You won't find any better moba in the mobile world, that's for sure. I just would love an option for skirmishes enabling my team to start at the left base as the controls are much better this way.
It's really good but they need to improve a few things like movement speed of super minions. You can take an inhib and be waiting forever for minions to come. And also minions spawn way too soon at beginning of match. But overall solid game
just open SEA server. connecting to EU server is bad and it always says server is not responding. Then why the hell do u recommend EU server. Now i m connecting to Latin America Server and it's laggy
This is the most unbalanced moba I've ever played. There are heroes that can kill an entire team by themselves. It's totally unbalanced, and not fun to play like this. It's a shame because it is a nice looking game with potential. But due to this is completely ridiculous.
I love this game, but I just updated it and of course I am having the same issues as everyone else on not being able to log in. I get error (121) and it tells me to try again. The weird part is that when I click guest, it recognises me and urges me to click Facebook, and when I do, it loads and I get the same error (121). Please fix is as I am a daily gamer. It's like taking cake and putting it on the other side of glass with air holes so I can smell it, but can't have it. Just rude ;)
One thing is missing: had a customization in the settings for control! When the ability is a skill shot you cant aim well on the bottom edge of your screen! If we could move it up a little bit that would be dope! Please tell me what you guys think.
Instantly addicted. Fun game, Nice to have the option for longer or shorter games. Controls are all easy to pick up on. Only little thing that bugs me is when in game my phone always leaves the bottom back button and menu button lit up. Don t know if that's the game or just maybe just my phone.
This game is a really fun way to pass some time but I don't understand why hookwars are a weekend only thing. It would be nice if there were other unique modes available throughout the week too. Also sometimes I find that I get matched up with the same people from game to game or the same opponents; even as far as 3/5 players to be same on my team or the other, sometimes it is a bit annoying.
Just wish there was an option to tap a hero to attack or tap the ground to move in that direction. Maybe the possibility of being able to purchase like 1 rotating skin a week with gold or gems? Otherwise awesome

Cool game very fun few negative though. Snowballing is way to easy one death and you basically lose lane. The controls need to be better they need a target lock mode. Its hard to keep on your target even with hero icons on. Being able to only use the jungle talent if you have a jungling item on sucks. its so hard to comeback if any bit behind as i said snowballing is to large.
