Author: Lillian Apr 14,2025

If there's one genre that could claim the title of King of Esports, it's undoubtedly the MOBA. From its origins as a mod for Warcraft, this blend of real-time strategy and hack 'n slash action has evolved through countless versions. While League of Legends currently holds the crown, it faces strong competition from Tencent's Honor of Kings.

Today's esports news brings not one but two exciting headlines. First, Nova Esports has been crowned the champion of the Honor of Kings Invitational season three. This victory marks a significant achievement for both the team and the game itself. Additionally, OG Esports, a powerhouse in the MOBA scene, has announced the formation of their own Honor of Kings team, signaling their intent to compete in future HoK tournaments.

These developments are a major win for Honor of Kings. Attracting top talent is crucial for building a world-class esports scene, and Tencent's MOBA has achieved this with remarkable ease.

Honor of Kings EsportsAbove and beyondIt's not surprising to see why this is happening. Honor of Kings boasts a dedicated fanbase in China that rivals that of League of Legends and surpasses many others. The esports scene adds an exciting layer for these fans, offering them a new way to engage with their beloved MOBA.

The next question is whether Honor of Kings can match League of Legends' impact on pop culture. While it has made an appearance in the recent Amazon anthology Secret Level, it has yet to achieve the narrative impact of something like Arcane.

Could that change? It's uncertain, but what's clear is that in the world of esports, Honor of Kings is now where the very best are competing.
