I'm skeptical at the very last bit (League of Legends being the most played game in the world by hours).

As of about a month ago, LoL just breached the 1 billion total played games mark. But according to the managers of a Chinese gaming platform, they've clocked 5 billion total games of DotA 1 played in the last year (DotA 2 only clocks in at a measly 43 million since closed beta started).

Edit: though I'm guessing the LoL 1 billion figure only counts matchmade games--if you count completed custom games (tournament games, arams, etc.), the figure is probably significantly higher and more comparable to the reported Chinese DotA figure. Still unlikely that it exceeds it, though.

Maybe they're pretending dota/dota2 don't exist. Cause you know, they don't want you to have a dota2 AND LoL team in the first place.... lolol

Normal draft is fine but the Q times are stupidly long compared to blind picks. I recently hit 30 on my smurf and I tried using normal drafts but it's ridiculous how long it takes to get a game. It's similar to 2k+ ELO where Q's pop every 5 minutes and people dodge all the fucking time.

Is blind bad because you're getting raped by bad matchups/soloq heroes or because you've met my jungle akali?

I am wondering about the validity of some of those statistics. I've been playing League for awhile, since late 2010, but I have less than one thousand games. I have gotten four pentakills. The odds say that I should have at most one. Surely pentas aren't that uncommon.

Also I had no clue League was big in the Philippines or Greece.

What is your split of normal/ranked? My guess is that pentas are significantly more likely in normals than ranked.

Philippines doesn't surprise me. I think there was a major influx of LoL players when Garena started supporting LoL big time over DotA, and SEA MOBA community has always been a thing.

Mostly Normals. Mostly with friends, I don't think I've played by myself in nearly a year. Really easy to get killing sprees and quadras/pentas if you have people helping to feed you kills. Those odds of getting a penta being 1 in 1500 games still seems incredibly ridiculous to me though.

It also depends a lot on your role and elo. I'd say ADs, mids and maybe some tops are usually the guys getting pentas, with junglers far behind them, and supports not even in the list. And the lower the elo, the higher the probability of a penta, simply because there are far more kills going around, and people tend to get fed a lot more.

I have played over 1500 ranked games and have never gotten a penta. Not even in normals.

I have about 2400 total games and have gotten 3-4 pentas, 2 of them ranked.

Maybe they're only using the stats from ranked for the penta-kill thing? Otherwise it makes no sense from my experiences.

2500 normals 1200 ranked zero pentas gg life

edit: well i got one but that was the enemy team standing there and letting me shoot them one by one so doesnt really count

so yeah you fuckers im the reason why it averages out to so low JUST CAUSE YOU'RE ALL RICH IN PENTAS DOESNT MEAN EVERYONE IS AS PRIVILEDGED ;_;

The closest I ever came to a penta was on Nasus when I was just starting ranked. I sat top for 30 minutes unopposed, had 5XX farm on Q, went into my first teamfight and promptly destroyed fools. One, two, three, four they dropped, and the last one running away was corki, withered, at low life, and i braced to celebrate. Then scumbag AD(don't remember who it was) shot him and killed him. I afk'd the rest of that game(all 40 seconds of it)...was so incredibly mad at a guaranteed penta being stolen.

As someone else already said the pentakill statistic will be a little skewed since they average over all games/roles. Obviously supports are going to have a much lower rate of getting pentakills, while ADCs will have a higher rate. If you play certain champs/roles a lot, and play normals with friends, and get a little lucky on top of that you can easily end up getting pentakills at a much much higher rate than 1 in 1500. Seems like a pretty simple statistic for them to datamine so I doubt it is wrong.

As for the hours played thing, there are probably some caveats to it. For one I doubt they'd even count DotA there. Most of the big DotA hours played numbers come from China and use pirated versions of WC3 making them entirely worthless from a business perspective. They are only going to compare to other online games using the official platform, because that's what really matters (again, from a purely business standpoint). As always remember: lies, damned lies and statistics.
