No , as Splatoon is more focused on weapon loadout ' s instead of abilities of certain heroes . MOBA ' s also have three lanes typically and towers to destroy in each lane . If you can get to the base and destroy the core your team wins . In Splatoon , you have four different gamemodes . Turf War , where the team to cover the most amount of floor wins . Splat Zones , where the team to control specific zones on the map to lower their counter . The team with the lowest counter wins . Teams that get to zero win automatically . Tower Control is about escorting a tower into enemy territory to a specific point on a preset path . The team that travels the farthest wins or the team that reaches that certain point first wins . Rainmaker is about taking control of a powerful bazooka that looks like a golden fish and taking it to a spot on the map . The player who takes the Rainmaker fish bazooka has 60 secs to get as far as they can with it and they can die while holding it making the Rainmaker spawn at least close enough to where the player holding it died . The enemy team now has a chance to run it back to the enemy territory and get farther . The team that went the farthest wins and if they reached that point before time ran out , they win . Splatoon is a very different beast from MOBAs . Edit counted wrong and took out a letter .
