Topic: DotA 2 vs LoL

Okay, so was a previous DotA player, and then quit for a long long time!  Considering dabbling again, just for fun.

Should I join the LoLtrain or stick with the roots!

(Also, didn't realise DotA 2 still has most of the old heroes, w00t!)

Discuss!

... what ?

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

Re: DotA 2 vs LoL

Both games are bad.

I'd say Dota 2 is the lesser of the two though.

Your = possessive. As in, "your grammar sucks."
You're = you are. As in, "you're an idiot for not knowing the difference."

Re: DotA 2 vs LoL

LoL for me tongue

Dota 2 is the same shitt,

Haters gonna hate!

Re: DotA 2 vs LoL

Dota 2 all the way! Graphics and gameplay are way better, and you can play all heroes from the first level. I believe that in LoL you only get a few heroes every week to play with for free and the rest you have to buy =/

WoW?
TF?
UO?

I do like the fact that the old heroes are still there too! I used to play DotA quite a bit.

But from the stream, the graphics are a huge difference.  I miss my cartoony look sad

Re: DotA 2 vs LoL

I've only played LoL, started playing it and liked it enough I never got around to trying out others.  I can't comment on the graphics as my computer will only run on anything on the bare minimum (which will be fixed soon weeeeeeeeeee) but gameplay is fun.  Probably a good time to get involved as they're in the middle of making a lot of changes for the next season of ranked play.  Adding new champions, experimenting with new game modes, tweaking the current champs and modes to level gameplay, and something else that I can't remember and now it's bothering me so thanks.

It is entirely possible to play LoL without paying a cent.  You can purchase Riot Points (RP) for $$$ if you want to buy frivolous things like alternative champion skins...you can also use these to purchase champions if you feel like speeding your champion acquisition up.  Most place use their Influence Points (IP) which you earn after each game you play.  Each week there are 10 champions that can be played by everyone for free.  I can see where people prefer to have everything free from the start, but for me (both starting myself, and teaching others to play) I prefer the limit.  It helps you to find a character that you like to play, and then you can work towards getting the IP to purchase it so you can always play that character.  Of course as you learn you'll want to try new roles and characters, but starting out with a goal to earn and learn 1 champion goes a long way.

Re: DotA 2 vs LoL

I've been playing LoL for about 3 years now. It can be a fun and addicting game. You don't have to spend any money on the game at all, you can unlock all champions and runes just by playing games and saving up enough IP to buy them.

One of the big problems with this game though is once you get to level 30 and start playing ranked there is a huge young kid player base that will cry their eyes out if they don't get to play the position they want to play in or if someone makes a mistake during the game. They will then spit their dummies out and purposely feed the other team so that you have no chance of winning. This happens a hell of a lot and it's a shame because it is these young kids that ruin the game.

Arby: A very strict mod, reminds me of a fat redneck who drives a truck around all day with a beer in one hand. I hated this guy at the start, however, I played a round in PW with him where he went as an anonymous player. Our fam got smashed up and everyone pretty much left. Arby stayed around and helped out the remaining family. At the end of the round he revealed himself.... My views on him have changed since. Your a good guy.....

Re: DotA 2 vs LoL

Lol is ever growing and is always updating, and has a larger following to my knowledge.

If you ever find a game where this isn't the case, please please please tell us.
