"Should we consider region-locking?" - reddit.
Hey there's Overwatch for NA/EU. I heard it's a great competitive game. How about Hearthstone? Really hardcore.
I can dream.

I am pretty sure it will grow on many people as time passes by, but the hate circle jerk against these things will even make those who loved it at first sight, hate it afterwards . The battle view is the answer to a question no one asked though. There was no swell of people clamoring for a new GUI that muddily tried to convey information. Looking at that its very very clear that whoever made it doesn't understand how good GUIs work. DotA conveys information FANTASTICALLY well between the UI, visual, and audio cues. If it ain't broke don't fix it. No one asked for this just leave it alone or guess what will happen? | ||

Might be hard to believe, but some of us just want to watch some fucking Dota. I don't need or want any of this fluff. All this fluff is catered towards a more amateur audience. Dota elitists will argue that the standard client UI already gives you enough information i.e we don't need rune cam because mini-map already shows us that. But not all of us look at mini-map during a live game, especially those with less playing experience. If you guys want Dota to move forward and become more mainstream and recognised/accepted by more people, things like cheesy layouts are unavoidable. So we're becoming more like League, so what? League dominates all other games in terms of followers. Elitism will only do more harm to a growing industry like eSport. | ||

I think people dislike the battleview for it's attributes. I think it's a cool concept, and it could totally work. But it needs refinement so bad. | ||

If you're not already aware of the runes and what's going on around them I don't think you'll really understand what you see in a camera either though. It ends up being useful to no one. | ||

I mean, in "real" sports you don't see the screen get plastered with stats when there's a power play. American football at least keeps things extremely clean during actual plays. It's only in the aftermath you get the complex detail, because that's where they explain nuances. I don't think I've *ever* seen an extremely complex popup mid-action in "real" sports, in fact. Maybe cricket or something. | ||

Agreed , no way seeing all the information helps ... it clutters the screen and makes it impossible to understand unless you really know what you are looking for., | ||
