And the Rune system is an IP sink and always has been. (Also, rune pages are pretty cheap now a days if I remember. Yes I play league with my friends who are to weak to play dota.) Jayce best hero. Icefrog please add, he would fit into dota nicely. | ||

Also Lux is best hero What bugs me about the rune system is that its analogous to the struggle of getting BIS gear in WoW. Its annoying when you're playing arena and your opponents have slightly better stats because they raid | ||

At this point Dota is likely profitable for them, but they are the only company in the world that could make a game on that model. And the Rune system is an IP sink and always has been. (Also, rune pages are pretty cheap now a days if I remember. Yes I play league with my friends who are to weak to play dota.) Jayce best hero. Icefrog please add, he would fit into dota nicely. the thing is,you call rune system an IP sink but when I played you couldn't jungle without runes(not sure how its now) and that was huge,if you didn't have a jungler and the other team did you were at a severe disadvantage.Also having a magic ressist page was absolutelly crucial sometimes against certain mids like leblanc or something that can instagib you like that. So when you play for a decent amount of time and don't spend money on the game you actually realize you are better off getting 6-7 rune pages that will cover a lot of general stuff you actually really need and not just sink your IP into buyin champs | ||

Plus we need league so we can have people who watch Dota go "Who is the guy with the shovel? WHY ARE THERE FIVE OF HIM?" That as a pretty good quote from this weekend at my place. | ||

Or if you are going to do that, take a page out of my book and don’t take lazy shots at people while you do. No one wants this dumb tribal warfare highschool kids seems to love about video games. No one gives a shit if Xbox/PS4 or LoL/Dota are winning/losing or better/worse. Its all fucking stupid and we should just be happy that we all have games we like to play. And now to other things, anyone going to get “Gods Will Be Watching”. That game looks like it could be amazing and the free to play prototype was pretty gritty. I agree. Arguing or even attempting to discuss the differences between LoL and Dota 2 in a constructive manner with Dota 2 players has always been futile, but I do enjoy calling people out on their BS when it comes to LoL. Now to be fair, it used to be a lot worse. For example I remember the days when the whole Dota 2 community, including the one in TL was convinced that the only reason why LoL beats Dota 2 so brutally in stream views was because Riot was cheating by putting their stream inside the game client which according to Dota 2 players counted everyone logged in as ''viewers''. I enjoy both games, which is why I don't shit talk Dota 2, only it's community. (And let's be perfectly honest, from the 2 communities, which side shit talks the other game more and acts more in an elitist manner, I mean just look at some of the replies to me already in this thread.) ''No one gives a shit if Xbox/PS4 or LoL/Dota are winning/losing or better/worse. Its all fucking stupid and we should just be happy that we all have games we like to play. '' I agree with this, but as long as Dota 2 community continues to have a form of napoleon complex towards LoL, the road will be long and arduous. I do enjoy this sub though otherwise. | ||

I tired to talk about new steam games and how dope "Gods will be watching" looks, but people wanted to talk about LoL. Its Dota General discussion. We are generally discussing Dota and LoL and how Jayce is awesome when he is in his robot armor. And Rammus is dope. | ||

Also Lux is best hero This definitely was the case during early seasons of LoL. You essentially had 3 ways of doing it. Full damage, full tank, or damage utility mix for Mages back in S1. But since then Riot has revamped the mastery trees numerous times and today they are a lot more flexible and allow for numerous different builds. Again, you still have standard ''catch-all'' mastery builds that people recommend especially for lower elo players, but those of us with slightly more understanding of the game can play around with it and optimize. Have to dis-agree with the Lux pick though. | ||
