What is your background? MOBA or FPS? (aussie.zone)

Just curious what the demographic here is like. The game seems to be appealing, at least for now, to both crowds. I am an FPS player whereas my friend is a ex-MOBA player and we usually struggle to find games we can enjoy equally. So far we are playing Deadlock a lot together though, and I am more hooked than I expected to be when I first realised this was primarily a MOBA.

If you started playing this game for a different reason feel free to share as well.

The invite only thing doesn't really mean anything in practice, though. I think it was more hype generation from Valve than anything else and if you check the Steam discussion page for the game it's just filled with endless threads of people giving away invites. Currently Deadlock has a 96,000 24 hour peak on Steam, putting it in the top 15 games being played on the platform and its all time peak is 171,000 from a month ago. There are definitely enough people in the pool for balancing to be possible.
