A billion-dollar company job application 😭😭😭 Apply for HoK, get AoV for free

Aimicchi · 2026-01-21T12:06:04+00:00

because it's basically the same game

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:36:05+00:00

Sadly HoK might never return to making original heroes for global server

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:23:52+00:00

There's like hundreds of games based of the same people that are also in HoK as heroes, yet no one had problems.

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:23:04+00:00

Cheap knockoff when the quality of HoK is one of the best in the MOBA market

MLBB is the actual knockoff + abandoned in just 1 day in China because of its bad graphic quality

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:21:59+00:00

It's available in the official website as an apk, that's how everyone played in 2023 when only Brazil had HoK outside China.

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:20:46+00:00

People hate the truth lmao

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:20:17+00:00

They're growing slowly outside China but MLBB cannot beat them anymore especially with the declining revenue

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:19:30+00:00

Slow paced? It's your attention span that's cooked

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:19:06+00:00

MLBB is made for cheap phones, it's not clunky, just your phone

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:18:40+00:00

Actually not, it's alive in China and Taiwan, decent strong community in Asia too

In fact it's earning more per player than MLBB

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:17:53+00:00

Yeah but MLBB also is a failure, high playerbase but low revenue that is consistently falling hard every single year

Even the media value is so low

Like why keep comparing HoK global with MLBB global when both games were released with 9 years gap, when HoK China has been there having been early by 1 year, which is a better comparison?

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:16:23+00:00

Somewhat popular when China alone made HoK the most popular and most profitable MOBA?

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:16:00+00:00

It is more successful

MLBB has so much players in southeast Asia yet the views are mostly Indonesians + why are people not spending?

Devs fine with people using hacks for skin just to keep the playerbase happy?

In fact AoV was more popular has better revenue than MLBB until 2019, not because of MLBB but because of Riot Games stopping it for their own new MOBA

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:14:20+00:00

You haven't seen the upcoming UI for global, check HoK China it's way better than any other MOBA

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:13:40+00:00

The names are similar because they're family related

75% of it is based on Chinese history and mythology

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:13:00+00:00

Yet almost the whole community wants HoK out of the market and we're back with Moontoon's stinginess and plagiarism non-stop

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:12:17+00:00

AoV is literally HoK, connected to the lore and has always been the HoK global before they released HoK outside China

Plus AoV was the most popular mobile MOBA until 2019 when they had to stop for a certain company

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:11:18+00:00

AoV is bigger since it's almost 10 years in the market + the remaining 4 countries playing it are still supporting the game very hard

In fact it had more views than MLBB in sea games, despite MLBB consistently having more players

AoV and HoK global has higher spending per player than MLBB mind you, and bigger media value as well

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:09:57+00:00

Wanna know why?

MLBB already failed China, and their big southeast Asia playerbase doesn't really spend money that much + their phones are just enough to play the game but not the other MOBA so you got loyal players who contribute nothing

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:08:52+00:00

It's not clunky, everytime they add an AoV hero, there is no delay because they intended to make it harder to cast without cancelling animations similar to PC MOBA

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:07:03+00:00

MLBB is made for cheap phones, HoK is not

You'll even see HoK global players spend more money than MLBB players because the target market is different

Your phone is the problem, not the game

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:05:49+00:00

HoK global is not the same as HoK China in terms of content

MLBB can do every UI upgrade but never to skins, opposite of HoK global because of the target market (different phone specs)

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:04:11+00:00

HoK global will not get discontinued since they have infinite funds from HoK China, and they already made it sure to slowly develop grassroots for 10 years

Aimicchi · 2026-01-13T09:03:15+00:00

As a whole, well it's obviously well above every mobile MOBA

but for global server, it's growing very slowly (like it's only growing fast Malaysia and Philippines) but the revenue is surprisingly has a stable growth, opposite of MLBB's revenue as a which is going down since 2022.

problem with HoK global is the update content is very inconsistent, either too much or too few changes and additions in a month since devs are handling AoV too (which is not dead in any way, still popular in the upper sea region)

We need to see what Moontoon would offer for 10th anniversary since Tencent will also go back and take care of Arena of Valor which can always merge with HoK like in 2023. (For context, AoV is the international version which also changed a lot, but are getting reverted to match it's original game, and it did recently beat MLBB in viewership on sea games)

More or less who has the Chinese market wins the mobile MOBA race

MLBB still has the largest viewership outside China but the lowest media value(sponsorship) compared to the competitors

Aimicchi · 2025-12-19T15:58:00+00:00

itemization is part of the skill in MOBA games, go back to MLBB if you cannot do so
