The gameplay is widely praised for its addictive, strategic, and engaging auto-battler mechanics, blending roguelike elements and unique hero abilities to keep matches fresh and exciting. While some find certain mechanics unintuitive or buggy and criticize gacha-related pay-to-win elements, the core gameplay loop remains fun, accessible, and rewarding for fans of the genre. Frequent updates and community-driven improvements further enhance the overall experience.
- “The roguelike mechanics add excitement, making every match a unique challenge.”
- “The core auto battling mechanics are finely tuned, providing a satisfying mix of strategy and excitement.”
- “What I love about Alpha League is how it combines the best of strategic gameplay with immersive world-building.”
- “Buggy and weird mechanics: even though there's an in-game library that explains most mechanics, the interactions are far from intuitive, and some even feel bugged.”
- “This game also has gacha mechanics to unlock cosmetics and playable heroes, resembling a typical mobile game pay-to-win system.”
- “The gameplay extender is crates that drop both normal and premium currency as well as champion upgrade shards, mostly requiring hours to open, with options to rush using premium currency. You cannot wait on more than one crate at a time.”

The game's graphics receive mixed reviews, ranging from "funky" and outdated with high GPU usage to praised as stunning and a major improvement over previous versions. While some users find the visuals basic or lacking polish, others highlight the upgraded UI and animations as immersive and a strong asset to the gameplay experience. Overall, the graphics are adequate for the genre but could benefit from further refinement.

- “This game's graphics are stunning, immersing me in the world of heroes and battles.”
- “With its polished mechanics, engaging community, and stunning visuals, it's a must-play for any fan of the genre.”
- “On one hand the visuals, character models, voice lines, and animations are all obviously created via AI and are more indicative of games from the mid 2000s.”
- “Extremely high GPU usage: even though the game itself has very basic graphics (pretty much a mobile game), my GPU (1060 6GB) is constantly at around 80% usage.”
- “The game is no longer free, now you have to engage in gacha mechanics to get new heroes, the UI and graphics are quite a mess now somehow, they feel terrible, the only thing that got better is the in-game info about what's going on in the game, and even then, it's lacking, since it isn't giving any info about hero traits.”

The game's monetization is widely criticized for relying heavily on mobile-style microtransactions, often giving paying players an advantage, which some view as a cash grab. However, it does allow new players to try the game without mandatory purchases, though overall the model is considered poor and uninspired.
- “I’m happy that the game doesn’t force you into in-app purchases to enjoy it.”
- “On pricing and value for gamers, this isn't really free as the game is infested with mobile app store-like microtransactions.”
- “Despite the monetization being very poor in that it just isn't expensive but gives an advantage to payers, it does allow a new player to experiment and get better before engaging with formidable foes.”
- “This is certainly a cash grab rather than a game made with passion.”

- “The game is extremely unbalanced and badly optimized.”
- “Developers reset all progress multiple times, causing players to lose everything they've earned.”
