Pros
Pro Simplified MOBA gampeplay
This is a simple version of a MOBA in that it is a middle lane only game, meaning that the user only needs to worry about what is going on in one single path. This works out well for mobile as the controls will never be as precise as playing a MOBA on PC or with a controller. It is also a good way to get more casual players to the genre as it is not overly complex to understand single lane gameplay.
Pro 32 available heroes
For a mobile MOBA having 32 characters to choose from is not too shabby, which gives a nice level of choice to the player as well as stretches the content of the game for those that want to learn and customize each one.
Pro Works well on tablets
Tablets, with their larger screens allow for a good sense of control over the game, which makes Vainglory something that plays best on larger screens devices due to how much is happening on the screen.

Cons
Con Can get tiring
For those that do not pay for the in-app-purchases to get new minions it will take a good while of grinding to unlock any new characters, which can lead to frustration due to doing the same thing over and over again with little changing up in looks or play.
Con No longer supported, Community edition only available
Vainglory devs lost their servers and released a Community Edition, which is currently on pause development-wise. The game has been pulled from Steam, Samsung, and Amazon platforms, and is only available on iOS App Store and Android Play Store. Developers intend to get back to the game in the future, but there's no definite timeline.
Con Playing as a team in person is a huge advantage
Due to how difficult it is to communicate with other online team members the easiest method to get that communication working is to just play together in person. Of course this gives an advantage to those that do so.
