Best reviewed blends the source score with rating volume. Release order is oldest first, and A–Z is title order. Unusually high scores with very small samples are treated as uncorroborated outliers until more players weigh in.

Why these games appear
How entries qualify
Team strategy-action built around distinct heroes, lanes or objectives, escalating match-based progression, and destruction of the opposing base.
Include when
Assign MOBA when team strategy-action built around distinct heroes, lanes or objectives, escalating match-based progression, and destruction of the opposing base. This must be a sustained, defining part of play rather than an isolated mode or sequence.
Leave out when
Do not assign MOBA from theme, presentation, camera, or a minor mechanic alone; its defining interaction and progression pattern must recur through the core game.
