Not to mention it means it is easier to balance. If there were 500 heroes with 5 abilities and 1000 items it'd be difficult to balance, and most heroes/items wouldn't even be used after a month. Instead of a group of lets say 12 heroes, who can constantly be adjusted to maintain balance, you'd have 500, where balance doesn't even matter, and 1 hero could be significantly better than 50. | ||

They should try to cater casuals because they ain't gonna compete with Valve in Dota2 with icefrog in terms of e-sports value. And there is LoL and HoN out there. Just hope that we get to see something at Blizzcon. | ||

Blizzard can do Dota 2 better than valve does if they start working hard on it. Valve shouldnt waste its time while many ppl are still walting for hl2 ep3. | ||

less farming. more fighting. then im sold. i hate farming when it comes to hon/dota. why am i farming for 40 minutes and 20 minute actual combat? some suggestions: remove level. remove exp by creep. remove items. add 10+ more skills to each character. rework tower defense. this way, u only need 8-15 chars, more casual, no fricken FARMING, killing incentitives = better timing, and knocking the other player all the way back (u see this already when knocking out towers after wiping the the other team out). games arent 1hr+. capture the flag.  i can dream cant I | ||

What if they added a lan option and new heroes. ? Wait a minute that is Dota 2. Blizzard can do Dota 2 better than valve does if they start working hard on it. Valve shouldnt waste its time while many ppl are still walting for hl2 ep3. From what i have seen from Dota2 Valve did everything but not "wasting its time". Edit: I think Blizzard Dota is basically gonna be the way for Sc2 players to find into MOBA games but i cant see them having the potential playerbase to be big if there is HoN/LoL/Dota2 around. | ||
