Schmaragon MOBA is an exciting fusion of Eve Online, Heroes Of The Storm, and Epic's Paragon. It incorporates innovative and hardcore concepts, such as permadeath, variable-powered heroes, no mandatory match completion requirements, and a toxicity-free environment.

In this unique MOBA setup, heroes start with a limited number of lives.
They lose lives when defeated but can regain them by vanquishing creeps, defeating enemy heroes, or participating in the game until the end of the match.
This is important: lives are permanently stored on a central server, guaranteeing that the number of lives persists and carries over between matches.
If a hero runs out of lives, the player can no longer play as that hero.
The gameplay impact of permadeath:
Dying only affects you; the impact of death on your team is minor. That means less toxicity between teammates and a friendlier environment for new players.
Although not a requirement, there is a strong incentive for every player to finish the match because big rewards in terms of hero lives are granted at the end.
The concept draws inspiration from Eve Online, where players command spaceships susceptible to destruction in diverse ways. Once your ship is destroyed, it is permanently lost. While you can acquire another, the one you originally had is irretrievably gone.
The psychological impact of permadeath:
Permadeath can add a heightened sense of risk and reward to the gaming experience. Knowing that failure carries consequences can make success more satisfying.
Permadeath can lead to stronger emotional connections between players and their characters or assets. The fear of loss can make victories more meaningful.
The potential for permanent consequences encourages players to learn from their mistakes, adapt their strategies, and become more skilled over time.
