They should add The Butcher, from Diablo 1.

If done right, this game will be a huge hit among casuals who wished to play DoTA without any stigmas from "pro" players.


To be honest, the reason I don't play Dota or LoL or any of those out there is because of the reasons the panel addressed in Blizzcon.

Long games
Hard to do early aggression
The number of stats is just too much for an "arena" game. I mean I want to jump into the action and jumping in the Dota games out there takes so much time.

I tried getting into Dota one more time watching the 1 million dollar Dota2 tournament but it was so damn boring watching the long games.

If you dedicate yourself to Dota the complexity and long games are probably fun but if you are like me, you want to jump into the action play 15 minute games, go on to the next one and just have some competition (ladder/matchmaking) and don't need the 1 hour long games in random games Blizzard Dota is unmatched.

Haha...cute trailer. Sort of reminds me of the original smash-brothers trailer.

the mount idea is disgustingly terrible

"heroes without boots get chased down by heroes with boots..."

that 500 gold investment was made for that purpose!! you don't always have to buy boots to counter the opponent's purchase, holy shit

besides, no one goes for boots first -_- (unless you're juggernaut)


Yeh, but why 500 gold kill you? I mean, mid-game,late game,all the game, hero with boot catch you or run away from you. You can't do anything unless you get boot or kelen.(Or a blink spell)


Edit:

The main game is still Starcraft, developers don't want you get sucked into DotA all the time.Maybe this is another reason for keeping games short.

Looks cool. I'd definitely be interested in playing this over the other moba games. Just because I've played all these blizzard games forever and know some of the lore and characters. Bit more involved with them I guess.

Not saying it's gonna be better than Dota2 or LOL or anything but I'll definitely be trying it out.

I wouldnt take this too seriously.
From the look of it, its just a fun custom they are using and it is meant for fun, not really competition, and it is fine that way. Good idea from Blizzard.

This looks like so much fun. I haven't been all that excited for Dota2, even though I love DotA and played it competitively for years. The games are just too long and now that I'm playing sc2, I just don't have time. But this.....this I can do.

Looks more like the Abomination from Warcraft 3. Abomb in Blizzard Dota will probably be inspired by Pudge.

I really love that they're taking characters from the Warcraft and Starcraft universe. I didn't really care about this before but this seems really fun now :D.
