Too many newbies, LoL deriders and ignoramuses running amok now that Dota 2 has been unleashed on the site. Getting snappy at the idiocy. As much as the fanbois on either side may not wish to acknowledge... LoL and DotA are far closer games then you would expect. It's very interesting how the dynamics inside of them actually work. But this is veering dangerously into the territory of a LoL v the world flame war. Best to be avoided. I did however once write a large piece about the nature of competitive games and what it means to be competitive. For example, Counterstrike is about micro with no macro. Supersmash Bros has no resource or economy management. Starcraft has no team play. LoL/DotA have lowered apm requirements. Yet none of these games are failures in the competitive sense. Sadly the article never really had a place any where so I scrapped it. But perhaps it might find a home elsewhere in exploring what truly makes a competitive eSport. Now, here's a question I have for you guys. With the unreleased champions like Medusa, Pheonix and Tuskar how would they impact the current hero pool? That is, what do they provide that currently isn't available? For example, the introduction of Naga offered strong and flexible teamfight control and setup while still being a good carry. | ||

And it has a retarded name a while ago we even have a discussion on how Darthozzan on that show should not really be representing our(dota/dota2) community as he doesnt really involve with anything... the show quality is pretty much crap, the audio quality of CoL bootcamp video is way better than these guys streaming stationary. Why would you even support such show? May be this is the only show HoN community has? | ||

Tauren Chieftain hands down the most influential unreleased hero currently available in -CM. If 6.75 adds Phoenix to -CM, he'll be pretty big too. | ||

have some hype bitches. there is a guy currently translating chinese interviews on TI2. Apparently there is rumor that TongFu team was in a very bad mood even before they play Navi which then lead to their poor performance(and a flame between team manager and the reporter). Also a part of the dialog say something about DK.Burning play a really bad CK so DK most likely wont be using CK strat this tournament. If anyone on our forum could confirm the translation, some of those detail could be huge for teams playing in TI2. | ||
