Why does every thread that mentions LoL NEED to turn into a LoL vs HoN vs Dota2 thread? Seriously, cut it out. Page 7, 00:29 KST. | ||

People still drink both Coke and Pepsi. Competition requires the games to be innovative and constantly evolving. Riot knows this due to their free-to-play model and Valve can see that if TF2 wasn't updated so much it'd have died long ago. All this will do is make both games better and fuel more money into e-sports being something serious. I look forward to the day where e-sport athletes incomes rivals that of other athletes. For certain sports I'm sure it already does | ||

I dont think people realize how much spare money this company has to throw around. GG no re valve. Wait. Are you seriously saying that Valve is not going to be able to Outdo riot because they lack funding compared to Riot/don't have as much "spare money" to throw around? | ||

they should hurry up and implement spectator mode, a replay system and a pause function if they want their game to be taken seriously as a competitive game. | ||

Game doesnt get me excited while playing it, but grats to those who enjoy it quite the prize pool up for grabs :D HoN is a farmfest at the moment? What? | ||

Think of it as the COD of MOBA games. | ||

I don't think you've played Dota or HoN if you think LoL is fast paced. If you look at high level play that is.. Its far too easy to prevent ganks with CVs,wriggles,etc. And yes it is a farmfest unless there is a huge difference in skill between the teams or a lvl 1 fight goes horribly wrong. | ||

Yeah Idk where your getting LoL= fast paced, towers hit really hard, so it's easy to just get into free farm mode. The game has no gold death loss, etc... I really wish they didn't take out deny, since you spend so much time in lane farming with most heroes, would give me something else to do. | ||

Why do people that have no clue of the current state of any games competitive state feel the need to make comments like this. There is only one way this game can be played at top level and that is passive farm-lane-entire-game, with its metagame heavily reliant on a stupid free blink that probably plagued that game since the beginning of time.

Don't forget Trolololol Flash, that every competitive player and their grandmother runs because it's obviously the best fucking summoner spell in the game. If you don't play like an absolute imbecile and try not to overextend while Flash is down then you should pretty much be able to never die in lane. | ||
