I'm actually kind of surprised that, as far as I could tell from search, Strife has more discussion on TL at than Dawngate. I just got into both betas yesterday and I'm not sure which I like better. Between that and reading about Heroes of the Storm my mind is spinning with all the new dota-likes. | ||

When it comes to the game itself, it's everything I want in a MOBA: fast-paced, gank-heavy, non-childish graphics, etc. However, S2 is a pretty terrible company when it comes to decision making. They could have easily made HoN much more popular, if they had had a clue of what they wanted to do with it. Not to mention the fact that S2 pretty much fostered hostility and toxic behaviour, what with their vanity items that pretty much insult the players for you (announcers, mostly). HoN is known for its awful atmosphere, and while the players obviously have a big responsibility in that, S2 never tried to solve the issue at any point. Which makes it very ironic and borderline disgusting that they are now coming with this "anti-toxicity" game, when they spent 3 years promoting toxicity and making money off it in HoN. I would jizz everywhere if dota had hon's announcers. that shit made the game what it was. Reason HoN lost popularity was because they went from a free open beta to a paid game, then transferred to f2p. Cracked(free) dota1 was playable through garena/iccup, and league was available. People aren't going to pay for something when free alternatives are available. This will hold true for pretty much every other game entering the market now, if there is a f2p alternative, sales/playerbase will suffer. | ||

Got key after Dreamhack, played a few days. Imo, game is very casual like seriously. I know that some dota guys call League casual game because it's easier, i'm one of them even if i'm playing both games on high level but Strife is really easy. Even though, it's good looking in general, having own courier is good always and having every timings on tables is no joke. Came back to play bunch of games week ago, found out that monkey hits hard now and also found out that there are tons of Russians already, damn it. =/ *i'm Russian myself, but i dislike those guys, you know about who i'm speaking :D* | ||

Obviously its closed beta and the amount of people playing isn't large; I get that. Unfortunately, its hard to mass games when the champions have very little depth. Although not necessarily a bad thing, it makes challenging yourself vs. bad opponents nearly impossible. Hopefully the next content patch will include an actual MM system or simply more champions to try so I can stay entertained. Overall, however, I really enjoy the game and I hope it has a competitive community. I'd say its a must try for moba-lovers who aren't elitist and can keep an open mind to what this game's overall goal is. | ||

My biggest problem at the moment has been the player base being entirely too new to mobas and games not being more challenging after you win. I suppose I'm spoiled with decent MM systems in Dota and LoL, but in this game you can win 10 in a row and still face the same scrub you've beaten 15 times before hand.

You shouldn't worry too much about it, S2 has plenty of experience with MM after Savage and HoN. Although I wish they would release another Savage instead of this. Savage could cater to a broader audience (FPS, RTS, MMO and MOBA backgrounds each could find something for themselves there) and not enter the niche that is already pretty populated which will mean higher competition for playerbase. | ||
