Invoker is a decent example of a mechanically difficult hero though. I never said Dota didn't need mechanics, I said they play a bigger role in your ability to be good at LoL than they do in Dota. | ||

I don't understand, how are micro and mechanics not heavily dependent on each other? This isn't Brood War, there is no macro so micro is the only mechanic... Being able to spam out the spells you want very fast gives you a bigger edge in LoL is what I understand from your post. But I think there is a whole other layer with the items in dota that make pulling off 'stuff' fast much harder. edit: apm in dota and dota-like games is a kind of weird territory, I doubt any pro player has less than 400 apm just because of all the move commands and to keep their reaction times quick | ||

I never said Dota didn't need mechanics, I said they play a bigger role in your ability to be good at LoL than they do in Dota. How good you micro is most definitely a part of your mechanics as a player. Lmfao. Also having more spammy spells doesn't mean you need better mechanics to play the hero. Because the exact same argument could be made for the reverse, that you need good enough mechanics to use the one shot you have at using said spell and not fuck it up because of the averagely longer cooldown and higher mana cost. | ||

I had about 110 apm playing starcraft and I have perhaps 30 when playing dota and I don't feel like it's effecting me even if I play meepo (I suck at meepo, but not because I'm not fast enough). Even small things like thread switching or dropping items is more rote memory and habit than it's macro. It's like macroing in broodwar only much easier to do mechanically yet it's still only good people who does it. | ||
