隨著網路的發展，線上遊戲已經被拿來當作很多領導和團隊合作研究的觀察目標，它可以幫助理解虛擬團隊和現實團隊之間的差異，但多數的研究都著重在大型線上多人角色扮演遊戲，近幾年非常流行的多人線上戰術競技遊戲卻乏人問津。
多人線上戰術競技遊戲越來越受到玩家的青睞，其中更以英雄聯盟這款遊戲最受歡迎。根據官方網站在2014釋出的消息，英雄聯盟的每月不重複玩家已達到6700萬人次，每日不重複玩家更是高達2700萬人次，這些紀錄在線上遊戲中無人能敵，說它是現在最具代表性的多人線上遊戲一點都不為過。多人線上戰術競技相較於其他遊戲，還具有低自主權、多挫折及挑戰的特性(Johnson, Nacke, & Wyeth, 2015)，加上高度的任務取向，很適合拿來探討團隊領導和決策相關的議題。
本研究採用質性研究方法，利用個案探討的方式，訪談了六名英雄聯盟的高端玩家，其中四名是業餘戰隊選手，另外兩名是現役職業選手。藉由歸納、整理，將訪談資料模型化成多人線上戰術競技戰隊的領導模型。
研究發現，在多人線上戰術競技遊戲的領導模型中，沒有一個特定的領導。在隊伍需要採取某些策略時，隊伍成員會因應當時的遊戲環境、角色、長久練習的經驗和信任，互相影響，共同決定出一個有共識的最佳解，隊員們共享了決策權，也共同承擔了領導的責任，這些現象符合了共用領導的特徵；其中，決定隊員的決策影響力的關鍵因素是遊戲內的角色，而非現實中的領導特質。

Multiplayer online game is the hot topic for virtual leadership and teamwork recently. Most of researches focus on massively multiplayer online role-playing games, but there is a genre of game called multiplayer online battle arena games (MOBAs) which is extremely famous without attention. Comparing to other game sorts, MOBAs offer lower autonomy, more frustration and challenges (Johnson, Nacke, & Wyeth, 2015), coupled with a high degree of task orientation, it is appropriate to explore for team leadership and team decision-making issues.
This study adopt a qualitative research methods and target the most popular MOBAs, League of Legends (LOL) as the research objective, interviewing six high level players of LOL. Four of them are amateurs, two of them are active duty pros. By induction and consolidation, I develop a MOBAs team decision decisiondecision decision-making and leadership model.
This research find out that there is no specific leader in the MOBAs leadership model. Team members shared the responsibility of leadership and power of decision, it is similar to the phenomenon of shared leadership. When the team want to execute a strategy, the members of team will quickly discuss and influence each other interactively, performing a consensus plan. The key factor which influence individual’s power of decision is game role, because it relate to the capability of players on certain game environment.
