>>386430690

>>386431459

i'm not sure, maybe it's the one where you can buy champions?

>>386431804
Dota 2

>>386430690
The only winning move is to not play.

>>386430690
Lets see
LoL:
>Have to buy characters
>Have to get to level 30 to get all masteries
>Have to buy runes with IP, this means that the guy who spends money or champions or IP boosts can spend more IP on runes
>About a third of the rooster is meta at any given time, punishing new players who buy wrong characters
>Items do nothing interresting
>Devs force a meta
>No custom gamemodes/mods
>No fun alternative game modes besides URF but they actually try to balance URF by removing characters, URF is also not available half of the time

Dota 2:
>All important gameplay related things are free
>The whole rooster is playable as long as you pick the characters properly and have a good gameplan
>Items make any character counterable wich allows for more interresting character design
>Devs dont force a meta
>Allows modding and custom gamemodes
>Actual fun alternative game modes such as ability draft and all random deathmatch

Does it really matter which one gets second place?

I think that the only people who say LoL to this question unironically are people who haven't played enough of both to have a legit opinion. LoL is like a fun parody of Dota.

>>386433074
i will say is not the best, but that it is fucking fun, it's fucking fun

>>386432959
>punishing new players who buy wrong characters
Nah fuck off with that. You literally have to be in the top 1% of players for meta to be more important than individual skill.

>>386433521
still a factor, though.

7.00 killed it for me

>>386433521
So it actually matters on higher level play. Thats the one place where it shouldnt matter

>>386433754
Talents are actually pretty nice, I prefer them over leveling stats because leveling stats was boring but objectively better on some characters like Sven and Juggernaut

>>386433596
>>386433846
Not disputing that it's true, just that it doesn't affect literally 99% of the playerbase.

This might be a shitty comparison.
LoL = TF2, fast paced, silly, enjoyable with friends because you fuck around
DotA 2 = CS:GO,slow paced, serious, semi-enjoyable with friends.

>>386433956
Kinda does though, a new Heimerdinger is worse then a new Ahri

>>386433965
>LoL = TF2
But the writing isn't good.

>>386433965
TF2 has actual gameplay balance, good writing and non enforced metas.

>>386434002
It's also not a first person shooter with 9 classes where you capture flags and control points
I can't believe that anon would compare LoL to a game that is not 100% just like LoL

>games the come from a poorly thought out mod
>match lasts 40min but with only 2 team fights that actually matter; rest is just snowballing
"MOBA" is literally a meme that got too far. Only thing worst than MOBAs are MMORPGs.

Does that make Dota TF2?

/thread

The one that I play is obviously better, that's why I play it.
That one that I don't play is shit, that's why I don't play that one

/v/ consists of weeboo trash worshipers.

Real fags P dota

>>386430797
The skill cap of ASSFAGGOTS is much higher than any other game in existence.

The real question is why play anything else than Dota 2 or LoL?

>>386434000
They're both shit if you don't know how to play them, and frankly if you're anything below the top 5%, then you obviously don't know how.

The fact that you can climb to any rating with any champion just proves that individual skill is the only thing that matters.

>>386435448
Sure, why not
