I haven't enjoyed any other mobas, but I've put ~100 hours in to this one. The comeback mechanics seem fine enough, I've had a few games that have come back from a ~30k soul difference.
Same, I haven't even slightly enjoyed any other MOBA I've played except for Smite, but I've fallen in with Deadlock like it's an old friend. And we've come back and won from a couple really depressing looking matches. Just the other day I was at 0/12 running Bebop with a 25k team soul deficit and once I actually got my head in the game, and got a little lane assist, we came back and won it and I finished with a 10/14 K/d.
The comeback isn't easy, and it shouldn't be, but it's doable. Especially so if your opponents get cocky. I've been on the other side of that coin as well, going 10/0 with Vindicta and fly out to snipe without a care in the world, to discover that every enemy is suddenly paying attention to where I am.
