Strife® (2015)
Enter the Hero In Strife®, you will assume control of a powerful hero. Each hero is uniquely designed to embody a play-style or idea, and heroes are by far the most important aspect of any game of Strife. As a hero, you will decide how the game flows, how quickly it progresses, and whether the outcome is favourable for your team. All Strife heroes are freely available from your very first match! Community First How your fellow players behave matters a lot in online multiplayer games. Strife is designed from the ground up to encourage cooperation and reduce toxic conflicts. Customize Your Armoury Crafting enables you to change item components and recipes, allowing any item to be part of your arsenal. Every Hero Needs a Sidekick A Pet will accompany you onto the battlefield, offering you unique advantages. Play to unlock more pets to expand your options. Shared Last Hit Gold Fight your opponents, not your allies. Last Hit bounties obtained from brawler and hero kills are split between contributing teammates. Out of Combat Regeneration Staying out of combat for a short period of time will significantly increase your Health and Mana regeneration, allowing you to stay near the action instead of going back to base. Personal Courier Each player has an invulnerable personal courier to automatically deliver purchased items.

Press Quotes
“Strife: S2 Games’ answer to the toxic MOBA” Polygon “STRIFE TAKES AIM AT DOTA 2 AND LOL” IGN “Strife is daring to make significant changes instead of just following the usual formula set by Dota 2 and LoL. It’s refreshing to see a new MOBA game escape the shadows of these two giants, and strive for innovation” GamesInAsia
