Video

*video for league of legends players* *Video contains Teardrop by Massive Attack* Ok this gonna be good.

Lich is best hero tbh

To even compare the two, to speak of them as similar, is really an insult to Valve and Invoker-- tbh.

is this the standard dota practice tool? that's insanely good compared to league's one lmao

There is an even better one. Shadow shaman can cc you forever. And as forever I mean FOREVER, TO INFINITY

riot forced their "vanguard" spyware on everyone so here I come, LOL

LoL client cripples PC boot time. Conclusion drawn.

Doesnt include ags abilities bur includes inate abilities.

what broken?, here i give you.... 7.36 - papa gaben

Come back here in 3 months and hwei is gonna use 5 or 6 spells Can't say, he was right, only spells hwei uses are QQ, QW, QE, WE, EE, EQ and R (if we can count R into it)

great video !

9:16 what’s the music playing here? I tried Shazam but it couldn’t find it. Please, I need to know!

12:28 - this is EXACTLY what Skywrath is all about. He does damage. A lot of damage. A shit ton of damage. It's actually quite impressive how much damage Skywrath can potentially deal to single enemy with close to none additional impact (except for Atos) just from a one 6th level procast. I mean, 3 out of 4 of his abilities directly deal damage and the fourth one actually amplifies enemies' incoming spell damage, therefore it *also causes more damage* and while silence and slow is good and all, but Chicken McCaster gets picked not for them but for an absolute obliteration of the enemies he can potentially cause. He absolutely devastates enemy flimsy supports and casters, especially people like Necrophos or Pugna who get hard-countered by him. Too bad he himself gets countered by funny ebony stick, lmao

not funny

champions can: kill rly fast, prevent a lot of damage, cc rly long. etc etc i dont see how this is any different from league

Here after uninstalling League after the Vanguard update

tbf in dotas rule if everyone is broken then no one is

Btw in 2002 i was made moded map witzh JUNGLE... and share on avalon websites.. but not as benephicial aspect but as obstacle for all who are gone from fight on line and try pass by.. wood,, it originaly make them slow.. or k#led on that jungle by random pocket of creeps what he can enter.. not give em for any advantage.. but to give time a oposit laner.. understand he is not play fair and he choping down a tree.. in order to.. invade, pass trought etc.. concept of jungle in that time.. for me was only a obstacle.. goof frogyfrog make this obstacle a demanded, and depended change.. what i kinda dont like. it may be a 3V3 not 5V5.. specialy botom 2 players?? nah.. i dont like whar RIOT did to that mod.. V0,4b they steal part of my job.. they steal a whole idead.. and in the end.. they get that 3V3 and rotate it for 90deg.. and mke tresome walley.. i never get known, noticed, or just mentioned.. in any of this company each-other roberys.. eve trought i have much more to offer at that time's.. specialy with frozen trone dlc builder features.. it is sad and shame.. and in the same time.,. i am glad.. a milions of ppl play it.. and every time i return on each rift.. i feel proud..

a 5:40 a biggest RITO lie they ever deploy..

song name pls ?

I love that the balance in dota is making everything unbalanced. And despite this the game it's the more fair Moba

Sylas and Rubick comparition when?

ya but in the DOTA there no firkin scamwaeare vanguard full of chinisium scamwear.. kernel rootkit.. joined to CHAJNA GOVC"! XD.. so.,. we are difrenet a lot.

this why people always joke that LOL characters have "Stun" and "Some Slow" as their skills, since 90% of LOL chracters boring. Dota > HoN > LoL

only difference that LOL has bushes and Flash/Smite

I have to agree and disagree. Dota in its wc3 conception was a community driven game. Very often, the designs and abilities of heroes were a direct reflection of the design philosophy of each game designer. Take Lina Inverse for example, her design is clearly more League-like, it is based on Lina from the anime Slayers and her abilities are themed around her anime abilities. Many of those VERY early additions to Dota All stars were designed in this fashion. Rikimaru, Rylai... and many of them simply followed the abilities their character model normally had in the WC3 RTS games. Throughout the many years, many heroes went through A LOT of design changes in their abilities under different leads, to the point that they are hardly the same hero anymore. This is because, later leads such as Guinsoo were more concerned with gameplay to make the game more interesting, playable and competitive. Icefrog followed this philosophy. And it is not hard to see why. They were limited by the WC3 engine, and thus the amount of character models and themes were limited anyways. All they could do is create interesting gameplay designs for the characters. You also have to consider that many later heroes that were added were also often pulled from the community forums, and more often than not, interesting heroes concepts with good gimmicks were picked. However, if you look at more recently added heroes, unique to Dota 2, you can see a slight shift in design philosophy. Monkey King, Mars, Hoodwink, Void Spirit, Hoodwink, Marci, La Muerta are clear examples of heroes that their character theme had a lot more importance than their gameplay gimmick. In the case of League of Legends, this shift in design pattern can also be seen. Early on league of legends, many of the first champions introduced relied heavily on a "gimmick". However, due to the existence of Dota they had to be more creative with their character designs to avoid being called copycats. The skills had to be highly thematic or else they would be accused of plagiarism. The very recent champions introduced feel like there is an independent design process. The character design process and the gameplay process feels very much disconnected. Rather than character/theme >>> gameplay, it feels like these two components are design separately and then fused together by force.

Dota is simply more complex. There is no debate. Riot has explicitly stated their design philosophy is focusing on depth and consistency. While Dota focuses highly on complexity and flexibility. For every aspect of the game, dota has at least double the number of mechanics that the player can interact with to change the flow of the game.

Great video!

Yep Dota 2 is the goat. Every hero is viable and useful but can also be countered making 'em useless. Also great that you have all heroes unlocked by default so you can actually play around this unlike for new players in League where the balance is trash in comparison anyways

Gauntlet's Wizard also only needs 2 reagents for each spells, has 9 spells, and can use multiple spells from the same reagent, each spell having its own cooldown, plus the potion.

Thanks to tzar potato we have passives in dota now

Holy shit they turned Carl into a femboy

an explanation would be nice

Icefrog took this video personally

Strenght of a hero is relative to others. Just because Dota heroes are stronger than League champs doesn't mean that they are not balanced.

rest in piece dota 2 ill never forget bout you and u was a one big piece of my life but yeah farewell

well welll well

Potato pls make a video on the new dota update. Is it bad or good I don't understand. 😢

Welp, this video is now completely and utterly outdated.

Ok but Ksante is still bullshit

Thank you! I do feel like getting insulted in russian right now!

I wonder if they made it so that juggernaut's omnislash did the same as Vergil's juggernaut and instead of him visibly Omni slashing, the entire maps just stops for 1.5 secs and the damage gets computed and instantly gets applied instead, would it add or subtract from the hype? Imagine that is how a TI ends. Just jug doing a flourish and whipping it rice paper to clean his blade and then 5 heroes all drop dead without buyback before the jug ends the the ancient by himself.

The sladar and primal beast absolutely funny
