I like how he starts by saying "I don't hate it and I play it quite a bit" then moves to "The only reason it's around is because Riot throws money at tournaments". I'm not sure if he knows what he's talking about, or if he's just spewing stuff out. Edit: Lol what, "League of Legends should never have been a competitive game because DotA 2 is the competitive moba". I don't even? It's just a "I LOVE DOTA" video. Not much to it. | ||

Dota is the older game, the game developed more than LoL (because it's older) so i kinda understand him to some extent. That's a silly argument. I don't know anyone who honestly believes that LoL is the original moba, other than people completely new to the gaming scene. It's like getting mad at people who played Halo as their first FPS or Pokemon as their first TCG and that they get more press than their more robust and older predecessors. Who cares, seriously? + Show Spoiler + Not insinuating that Pokemon is as nearly a good card game as any of the other ones, just making a point. | ||

His entire argument boils down to "this game is doing well and it shouldn't because i don't want it to since i like dota more, so dota should be the top dog" | ||

While LoL has a much lower skill floor and is easier for new people to get into, the difference in the skill ceilings doesn't really matter. DotA is slightly mechanically harder and less forgiving, but in the end it's rarely mechanical skill that determines a win and more play/strategy that does. There are some exceptions (DL's amazing control, for instance, timing Smites, etc), but even the team with worse mechanics can win by a large margin via counterpicking, teamcomp, and map control. Like people complaining about SC2 being easier mechanically than BW, ~80% of victory comes from out-playing your opponent, not whether you have better micro than him. | ||

Nobody goes around saying sport x is easier/harder than sport y, therefore it should get more of the limelight, why should it be any different in esports. It's like saying rugby is harder than football (american), therefore football should go die in a hole. It's just patently absurd. | ||

He hints at nerfs and changes in design philosophy regarding champs made for top lane riven/darius/irelia/jax. Do you guys feel these worries are warranted? I feel that AD carries are a much more toxic role than top laners, because of how they can almost take out an entire team by themselves if they're protected. A lot of his concerns are regarding the early game in top and the snowballing that's going on, which are warranted concerns, but I don't know how he'd ever fix those issues. In a lot of his posts he's also talking about how Riven's ult needs a longer cooldown, but I don't really agree with this approach since Riven is already sitting on 48%-49% winrate in solo queue most of the time anyways. | ||

Similar story for Anivia, but just a few GD ago people were claiming she was broken and needed to be nerfed because of how Froggen can play ultimate bravery with her in ranked. | ||

Great 900+ damage burst. And then... well, 260 damage then another 300 for Bola. Not a very impressive lvl18 total for an fighter who is tanky for 3 seconds. Damage is less if you want him to actually be tanky. I think this may be a rare case of a released hero going to be buffed instead of nerfed in the upcoming patches. Part of the problem is that people undervalue CDR on Rengar, and insist on weird item choices like Trinity Force when they could have Ghostblade + Phage. | ||

The thing with those 2 champions are that they're also amazing for competitive play. Riven, however, shines the most in solo queue IMHO. | ||

If you want CDR you can buy kindlegems and shit. Ghostblade wastes money on a mix of stats that very few champions use well enough to justify it since most of the stats are scaling stats which bruisers can't afford to stack. The active is really good and it's saving grace I guess but you can be stunned out of it easily. | ||
