Sure, this is a bit preemptive, as the game is not yet in Beta, but it can't hurt to help hype things up ahead of time. In addition, feel free to use the new Blizzard All-Stars Subforum for speculation on this custom mod, as well as Blizzard's other official custom mods.
BAS Informational Series by Sixen
Over the last few weeks I've done a ton of research (aside from actually sitting in at the BlizzCon panels over the years and playing the game myself) and brushing up on my Blizzard All-Stars knowledge, and finally decided to begin my informational series for the game. I've been playing a lot of DOTA2 recently, which is what sparked my renewed interest in All-Stars.
If you want to learn about Blizzard All-Stars, watch my series! I released the first episode today (9/19) and will be following it up with more episodes I've already planned out, covering known gameplay mechanics, heroes, items, and then of course, some speculation and suggestions.
Feel free to leave feedback in the comments below or in this forum thread.

Posted Sep 20, 2012Thanks for the update Sixxen. I was wondering if I would like this compared to league of legends. Now I am starting to think I might!

Posted Sep 20, 2012Being not a dota/moba player I can't shake off the feeling of "really? Is the map so great that it needs an informational series/it's own sub-forum before it's even given public access?" But okay, I suppose it might be a big step in genre evolution, so go ahead and make it special. For now this short of PR campaign reminds me of TOFU =D

Posted Sep 19, 2012Very informative Sixen, thanks for the heads up.
Having been a massive player of the moba genre for around 8 years now starting in Dota then moving over to LoL during the Beta also playing dota2 a bit for nostalgic purposes. I must say the worst thing for all of these games has been that of the mechanics being held to one style of play, Dominion for LoL is what I'm getting at here, these games could be so much more with different game play if the developers would give it thought.
I hope BAS delivers. I know it will deliver the current Moba gameplay perfectly but I hope it goes further then just that.
