Perhaps he went through all of the forum indexes until he found it. Like this: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=48 | ||

Like this: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=48 You can always search for the thread title and access it from the search  LoL is so horrendously unbalanced (compared to DotA) that I can't believe it got its own forum... on TL of all places. I think its more like LoL is pretty popular on TL. The original thread was ridiculous, I check it several times a day and basically have to go through a page or two each time I do and I can never find anything on the thread because it has 5 billion pages. | ||

So in short, I think the subforum was warranted and I'd like to thank the admins for it. | ||

Every forum I read there's a hugeeeee discussion around Lol while other (arguably better) dota games get no attention. Lol isn't that good! Why are people so obsessed with it. Oh wait... grindy awards & customization. | ||

People like it because it is easy. Easy to play easy to learn. Most people are bad. People don't like games where they are bad. LoL is easy to be good. That's about it. | ||

Easy to play easy to learn. Most people are bad. People don't like games where they are bad. LoL is easy to be good. That's about it. Lol just pretends to be easy. Rather than putting you in the game and asking you to get better, it just gives you rewards based on time spent so you 'play better'. It also puts significantly more importance on the jungle creeps and their control which can be difficult for new players to understand. I mean yeah there's not the mechanical cruft of DotA with denies, orb walking, crow usage, recipes, or other such things, but it still has a lot of stupid/awkward parts to its design. But yeah, it's not really free either given the time requirement to play on an even playing field. It's also not really more action packed unless your pug/group plays passively. There's slightly less farming, but a whole lot less dynamics around ganking, map awareness, and movement. Lol is to Dota/HoN as WC3 is to Starcraft (1&2) I think Lol's popularity is because 1. the community is less abusive 2. Games are shorter in length 3. People respond well to leveling up and unlocking things. | ||

We wouldn't all be playing League if we didn't think it was worthwhile, more fun than HoN/Dota/BW/SC2 and if it didn't have a great community. Also, we have the highest-level strategy discussion on the web, hands down. I don't mean it like that at all. I had a lot of fun when I played Lol even if I really dislike runes/masteries, and can understand why people enjoy playing it. I just find it surprising how gripped people seem to be with Lol compared to DotA/HoN. | ||

As a DotA player: First quote (nested). Agree with. (except WC3 is "free" these days) Second quote. You don't know anything about DotA/HoN. There's a lot of arrogant posts in this blog, at the rate it's going it's just going to turn into another war. And yes, that LoL forum is so incredibly obscure there is probably going to be people who make LoL threads. | ||

Wow thats some rock solid arguments you've got there, you must be from the dota community I assume? You're not exactly helping the status of this blog by calling people clueless and then backing it up with.. nothing. | ||

You're not exactly helping the status of this blog by calling people clueless and then backing it up with.. nothing. You are as clueless as somebody calling Zerg imba in SC2 in this current patch. Heroes are fed because lack of skill, mistakes etc., and there is no hero that can be really deserving of the title "imba". Carries are an important part of DotA/HoN, if you don't like it then say so, but there isn't anything "imbalanced" about it. Seriously, you think my claims are baseless? DotA/HoN has plenty of team fights. Look up 99% of pro DotA/Hon replays there are team fights, and the best ones probably go over 5+ huge teamfights a game. For one thing, YOUR claims are baseless, and you're probably basing your experience of the game from a low level perspective. Do you really think Zerg rushes are imba and that's all Starcraft is about? Probably not, but there are some people out there who don't know what they're talking about. And yes, I did say I was a DotA player; in fact it was the first damn thing I said in my post. | ||

The fact still remains, they play a much larger role in dota than in LoL. I never said dota didn't have any team fights, what I said was that LoL was more emphasized around team fights than dota because of the above fact and my original post. I didn't have the "More" part at the start of that sentence which was my misstake as you clinched on to that to back up your argument, but it is what i meant either way. Save the SC2 analogies please.. lol | ||
