Are MOBAs actually even fun?

MOBAs are overall E-sport slop .
Fun to play for the start but after a while the cracks start to show and the gameplay becomes stale .
 
I used to play LoL and it was deeply stressful and enflamed my smoking habit. After kicking it years later, I tried HotS vs bots mostly to try heroes and I had a lot of fun. Every time I would play against other people, the stress and pressure would come back and keep me back to playing vs bots. It was relaxing. So.. I think the social ranked elements of these games lead to too much stress to where it's not fun.
 
There was this Russian YT channel that made it his mission to fuck up every MOBA match as bad AS possible, and have his teammates crash out on him.
 
I think its a Meta-thing for most people.
You dont really play it to "enjoy the game" per se, its more so about hurling the most and fastest abuse at the other person via text and voice.
Sure, "the actual game" is scored, but the real winner is decided by who is the most abusive.
Most people just dont understand that, they needlessly assume MOBA communities are "toxic", but they just dont get the meta-game.
