What killed the MOBA genre?
The fact that there isn't an FPS moba yet.

there have been. of course no one is going to remember them because how badly they have failed. I do remember totalbiscuit reviewing one dota styled fps game though.

Super Monday Night Combat?
I remember playing it and thinking it was quite good, but I don't remember what killed it.

yeah thats the one
It became mainstream.
League and Dota are thriving. If you mean what killed it for people who don't like them it would have to be the communities

SMNC failed because it took the formula that made the original fun (quick matches and the feeling of playing a regular shooter with a twist) and took a dump on it, trying to reach the MOBA audience. It also didn't help that the community was full of nuthuggers who refused to see the game's faults and would be openly shitty to critics and new players, then complained about a lack of player base.
The toxic crybabies and kids. Every single Yasuo, Katarina and Zed i meet are just toxic fucktards who go full feed mode when you gank their asses twice. Every second ADC i support will dive straight into the team and after i use every single spell to get them out he doest it again and dies even after winning the laning phase. People dont use their brains anymore in those games they just do because Mah UTUBER DID DIS AND U SHIT U SUX FUCK U CANCER LOLOLOLO REPORT I TROLL

Overwatch is trying to fill that niche I think.

Dead on arrival game. I'd eat a show if it even manages to get 200,000 userbase.
