hmm idk zack and i played dota 1 back in the day, we even had a team in cal, but i feel LoL has more of a "strat" base to it than dota. in fps terms i feel like LoL is more like cs and dota is more like dod

edit how is LoL trash? just because you dont like the pretty colors?

everytime I play anyone in dota 2 that plays LoL, they're 10/10 really bad. And I have friends who love LoL and dislike dota 2 because its "too hard". From my experience LoL players just suck.

And in the end LoL is just a watered-down ripoff of Dota 1
i gave dota a serious shot. yes it is hard, but the thing i disliked the most about dota is how it takes a **** hour to build boots. Or ANYTHING in that **** game. Shit takes forever in LoL as it is.

Last-hitting 2-3 creep waves = boots. Something you should realize about the difference between the games is that in DotA, there is an extra cost associated with big items. Big items in DotA are less cost-efficient than cheaper items, whereas in LoL the bigger items are MORE cost-efficient. DotA taxes an item that does the same thing as 3 cheaper items to compensate for the fact that it occupies only one slot, whereas LoL discounts the price of expensive items, presumably to compensate for the fact that you need to delay buying anything in order to farm those items. The problem with the LoL system is that it creates much bigger timing windows and disrupts the continuity of game play.

Underfarmed support heroes in dota get to survive on the most cost-efficient items in the game, while the carries and semi-carries that farm a lot of gold have bigger, but less cost-efficient items. This means that when a carry farms up a big item, it has some impact, but not as much as in a game like LoL, because he has to pay a tempo tax AND an efficiency tax to have a one-slot item with an effect.

It's the most played game in the world largely in part because it's free and has a very small learning curve. Yes, HoN is now free (adopted LoL's business model and has gotten considerably worse) and was free in beta, but was p2p at some point so was less accessible. Just because 30 million people play it and it has the largest prize pool, as many people have mentioned, does not make it a good game sadly. LoL is much more forgiving for newer players considering you have a recommended list of items, free tps, no gold loss on death, no denying creeps, extra summoner skills (escape abilities), etc, so people naturally gravitate towards that. Most of the people who try HoN and DotA2 just can't handle the huge learning curve and the toxic community. This game also destroys friendships LOL.

Side note: If you can't manage to farm a pair of boots in at least 10-15 minutes, let alone an hour, you're probably just not very good. It's not the game's problem.

That being said, neither community is going to concede that the other game is better, obviously, so grow up. You play the games you like.
