They all are copies of wc3 heroes. Dota 2 is a remake of Dota 1 with a new engine and in a seperate game. In dota 1, all heroes were warcraft 3 hero models.

Its because Dota was originally a UMS for WC3 so most of the heroes used WC3 models(Anti-Mage is illidan and Razor is Arthas for example)
Life has won two GSLs and a Blizzard Cup. NOT three GSLs.

It's the final game, no team wants to take any extra uncalculated risks. They're playing to their lineup's strengths =)
So games we get 6 kills in 18 mins, some we get 30 kills in 18 mins.
I do admit this game is a bit boring, but again, both teams have a lot on the line in this final game of the tournament.


Is a "boring" play-style the strongest way to play? (Like Flash from BW )

there isnt really a best playstyle. Drafting is a big decider in what kind of game it will be. A couple months ago it was a super Push meta, and games would be over in about 25 minutes average. It was ridiculous. And then there's chinese games of average length about.... 80 minutes?


My... Flash...

I always wanted pro SC2 games to last longer on average (more high ground advantage please ), but 80 minutes is a movie...

maybe we could get SC2 players to stare at the screen picking units for 15 minutes before even starting the game, that would prolong it.

Dota was made in the warcraft engine, they had to use the same unit model.
And people are attached to these model, so valve try to use them if blizzard agree. ( they didn't about some of them )

After spectating SC2 for so much, watching Dota2 observers is so hectic, almost nauseating.
Feels like they could use some more smoother or more consolidated camera movement.
The whole thing is so jittery and jumping around way too much, they could likely greatly benefit from the double camera features that are done by NASL, MLG and EG MCSL.

Depends on the team and on the lineup. "Russian" dota is usually aggressive, while asian dota is very farm centric.
Some teams favour heavy pusher lineups to end the game by the 20-30 min mark, some pick a hero that excels at late game fighting with the proper items, and 4 other heroes to support him (so he won't die, has easy farm etc.) which turn into 60+ minute games.

Lone druid (the guy with the bear) is pretty long game centric, because he can in theory have 12 items on him, while other heroes can only have 6 (he can carry himself and his bear can also have 6 items). Tinker (the one teleporting everywhere) also needs some expensive items to become potentially very powerful. So mTw are trying to contain Na'Vi until these 2 can out right kill the other team.

Does DOTA2 have the whole 'last-hit' thing where you get bonus gold from creep when you deal the killing blow? I liked LoL, but the requirements to get good at last-hitting really turned me away. It just isn't fun to last-hit things at all imo.


Yea, and it's alot more important than last hitting in LoL. And you also have to last hit your own creeps to "deny"


Don't forget you have to also do this on towers


And on Hassy

My favorite thing to do is to deny hassy

I gotta say, the observer UI in Hon seems to be way better than dota 2.
Would love to see XP per minute and gold per minute and stuff.

Its still in beta though right? Maybe they will improve it


Funny how most dota fans would say the HoN UI is much worse

Most heroes are based on wc3 heroes, since dota 1 was basically just a wc3 custom map.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

This must be one of the more boring esports to watch. Been looking at it for some time, nothing really changed.

It actually looks like one of those Bud Spencer & Terence Hill movies. A whole bunch of guys just beating each other up for 20 minutes.
