It's like the anti-SC2 for me.

The game just seems so dumbed down compared to LOL or especially dota that idk why anyone would prefer it over either of those. It isn't even like there is that much of a smaller learning curve. Plus those are SO much more established that HoTS has really no chance.

HoTS is very different to LoL and Dota.
It is far more objective based.
Less fancy imo, it's not something that I would enjoy watching, but fun-wise, it is incredibly fun

Tourneys also have rules about Blizzard not putting LAN into their games in 20-fucking-14, but what are you gonna do?


I don't think tourneys do have that as a rule


...well they should...

There are enough Dota Clones.


yeah, IMO Overwatch will be more popular than HotS, less competition in class-based shooters.

What else is there outside of TF2?



Battlefield 4.
Esl tried to make it Esport, but failed miserably.

Sc2 = Only RTS out there
Heartstone = Only easy accesable card game out there
HotS = Dota, Dota 2, LoL, HoN and tons of failed Clones?
Overwatch = TF2 and else?

So Blizzard rule: It is not enough to copy good ideas and make em better and more easy to access for casuals, you must also have less enemys on the market to create blizzard hype.

Next Blizzard game confirmed a Wale hunting simulation.

Can someone explain to me what hearthstone offers that so many people enjoy watching? Seems so simplistic to me.

It's really different from dota. Dota is better at dota but HotS is great fun actually. It's really fast and fluid.

Pfft. Not Mvp's fault that Innovation didn't think to 2rax.


Only winners would use a 2 rax in game 7.

Inno? He flew 7 medviacs into 15 mutas.

I just really like card games, so I don't mind watching it and learning more about different decks.

Cause MOBAs are insanely game knowledge based, Dota players have a 10 year edge, LoL players have a 5 year edge, with HotS I get to be a pioneer sort of even if the game isn't as good.


It might be more simple, but that doesn't mean it's bad or worse. I like that the games are way shorter and that there are no items but talents. I thought it would explode more, even in the alpha just as HS, but I guess it's still a moba and LoL and Dota just rule that genre.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
