- Each of the ten players independently control a powerful character, known as a "hero", that all feature unique abilities and different styles of play
- During a match, a player and their team collects experience points and items for their heroes in order to push through the opposing team's defenses
- A team wins by being the first to destroy a large structure located in the opposing team's base, called the "Ancient"
