Dota 2

It isnn't. I'll fucking drag my essay up on the shit if I have to. Its like with Starcraft, You can put into the shittiest of graphhics and it will still be easy to distinguish wtf is going on. But I seriusly dont think we are gonna get anywhere. Mobas are like fucking minefield when it comes to opinions man. I used to play DOta, then Hon, Then Lol. I tried Dota 2 but found that I didn't like it all.

That and I am tired as fuck and starting to loose coherency.

LoL has shitty textures, meshes that look like they're from 2003 and it's horribly dark in pallet choice. Dota 2 is brighter, cleaner and simply of much higher graphical quality. Because environments are somewhat "drab" in appearance compared to LoL's sharp colours and low-grade visuals, heroes and their actions stand out more and make it easier to see what's going on.

On top of all that hero models are bigger and easier to identify. Because LoL's graphics are so murky and shitty (and skins can vary so tremendously one hero can look completely different) I find it a lot easier to spot what's what in Dota 2.

And LoL being geared towards the human mind is BUULLLSHHHIIITTT. It's just an ugly game, deliberately made ugly (see WoW) so it plays on older PCs.

Oh my. I was afraid that would happen.

Welcome to Mobas

Yeah, well. I'm not here to start a flamewar or anything. I don't even particularly dislike LoL but I don't think it's better than Dota 2.

Also just helped Jorick with his first game of Dota 2. Went pretty well, round of applause everyone. We won.

And I didn't feed or anything! Went 4/4/14 with Lich, which isn't horrible for a support hero.

I just went 20-1-7 Graves in ranked, after purposely tanking my elo so I could rape noobs. In LoL, of course. LoL's playerbase is so inferior compared to DotA.

Smurfing is fun. I used to make a new account whenever I was playing with people new to LoL, so they weren't forced to play against level ~20 people, and I would roflstomp the noobs so gud. Playing AP Singed against low level people was one of the funniest things ever.

How?! I've been getting beaten by easy bots, even despite being fairly experienced in LoL.

And yeah, I made a smurf to help my brother get into the game, and played me some manly support Cho'Gath. It was pretty funny... and Singed, he's one of my favorite champions period, let alone vs noobs.

The how is rather easy: play super defensively, throw ult in team fight. Three of my kills came from my ult, one from lucky use of Lich's Q. And my game was against real players too, haven't really played against bots yet (Hank took me into a bot game to explain the basics, but we kind of just derped around the map rather than fighting).

Singed is one of my favorites as well. It's just so fun to bum rush into the enemy team, fling their shit, take all their nukes, and then run away still alive while your team cleans up.
